Hi all

i have not had reason to post on this site for a few years as benzoyl peroxide kept me clear. I am now intolerant to it and my skin has slowly deteriorated. A few days ago I tried effaclar duo and my face is now suddenly so full of blemishes there is barely any normal skin left. Only my forehead has more or less escaped. I have stopped the effaclar and am using dabs of Rosemary essential oil and sunflower oil which worked well for me in the past. I am just trying to treat my skin gently but the blemishes are still coming. Has any one else survived effaclar duo purging and come out the other side? I need some support and reassurance right now

To put it simply , if there is barely any normal skin left , then you should see your doctor or a dermatologist. If this is an allergic reaction sometimes OTC hydrocortisone ointment for a few days can help until you see a doctor.
Best!
