what the hell. My acne is not getting better either. I take zinc, fish oil, and a multivitamin. I also started to use AHA a few days ago. My skin feels smoother from the AHA, but I still get a new pimple almost every day. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I use BP twice a day, with moisturizer in the morning and AHA at night. At first the acne was getting better, but I feel like it has been the same for a few weeks now. Is it eventually going to clear up?

If you don't mind me asking, how old are you? I used BP(in the form of proactiv) in my late teens but it didn't really stop my acne. It made my skin feel smoother, but it didn't prevent outbreaks.

My skin did not dry at all on the regime and become oily several hours after application. I still get acne from time to time but not as severe. It's not a cure by all means and doesn't work miracles on some of us. At some point our skin hits a plateau where we still break out but not as bad.
