Yes it's normal.

Yes it's normal because the products are strong and it dries out the skin badly. Have you tried applying pure Aloe Vera on your skin ?

Maybe this regimen is too harsh for your skin, have you tried other acne products ?

I don't think the regimen is too harsh for her skin, I went through the rough dry stages and it went away after some time.

True, maybe with time the skin will adapt to it. But I know it is totally normal even with my regimen my skin gets really dried out!!!

The flaking is inevitable. Try using less BP. I used very little BP during my first week and added very little to it every week. I also suggest you moisturize throughout the day and add jojoba oil to your moisturizer (especially at night, you can add more jojoba oil because no one will see your oily face while you're sleeping!) Hope it helps!
