carnivalesque 0 Posted August 10, 2010 I stopped using the regimen about 2 months ago and haven't put a single product on my face since - nothing but water - And yet I still have the tinge of redness/pinkness from the BP. Has this happened to anyone else? Does anyone know a remedy, or do I just have to wait? (and how long?) Thanks. (The products I use were all Acne.org - the cleanser, BP and Moisturizer.) PS Pretty sure it isn't rosacea since it is always the same color, isn't irritating/burning, and is only on places where I did the regimen. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GS3 0 Posted August 13, 2010 I don't really know but give it some time, It's probably nothing. Maybe after a couple more weeks see if it's faded any more Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carnivalesque 0 Posted August 14, 2010 That was the original plan, but it is literally the *exact* same tone it was 2 months ago. It hasn't faded one bit, so I doubt a few weeks would make a difference. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mulzachan 0 Posted August 14, 2010 have you thought about seeing a derm or something? most cases do just get better over time, but two months you probably should have seen those results by now. has there been no improvement whatsoever? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carnivalesque 0 Posted August 14, 2010 (edited) I will think about seeing a derm if it isn't any better in a while. I am mostly wondering if this has happened to anyone else, and what their experience was. Edit: Nope, no improvement whatsoever. I have compared pictures from 2 months ago to pictures from today, in controlled lighting. Nearly exactly the same.

bee-monster 0 Posted August 14, 2010 i havent had this happen to me, cause im currently using the regimen.. but what did conquor my redness was jojoba oil. since you are no longer getting the irritation of constantly re-applying BP it will prolly help alot. give it a try, if it doesnt work.. time heals everything.

carnivalesque 0 Posted August 14, 2010 I tried Jojoba before, it broke me out really badly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bee-monster 0 Posted August 14, 2010 before i was on the regimen i used aloe vera. made my face look refreshed. its good for redness awell, maybe give that a try? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carnivalesque 0 Posted August 16, 2010 I will certainly give it a try, but I'd prefer some input from someone who has actually experienced this. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dykim90 2 Posted September 6, 2010 i did for a long time actually. it could of have been the winter months but my skin was not normal. it took awhile to get it back to normalcy. for me, bp definitely damaged my skin and made me extremely sensitive to the sun. i was definitely 100% clear but my skin didnt feel normal so i stopped and of course i broke out but now it feels normal and i have my acne under some control. i still his dan's moisturizer bc its the effing best Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carnivalesque 0 Posted September 6, 2010 How long did it take for the redness to go away for you after you stopped the BP? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
