Hi fellow acne sufferers, I started the regimen almost 4 weeks ago and I am experiencing extreme extreme, redness, tight skin, swelling, cracking and skin constantly peeling off from dryness. I follow the regimen very strictly (cleanse gently, bp, then 2 full pumps of moisturizer). The first week, I started with a small about of bp, then slowy ramped up to 1 full pump day and night. I have probably been doing the one full pump day and night for 4 days and my skin is freaking out. My breakouts are definitely getting better but because of the current state of my face, I find it very hard to feel comfortable in public..
Did I move too quickly? Was my dosage increase not even and slow enough? I guess I have very sensitive skin. I don't want to regress (use less bp) but am afraid I'll have to if it doesn't get better.
Any advice or tips would be soooo appreciated!
Thank you!
Also, I have been using a ton of jojoba as well.

Thanks for the advice!
