I'm on my own version of the regimen and things are finally looking up for me. I'm wondering about my morning routine, though. I wash with CeraVe foaming wash, use proactiv repairing lotion (2.5%bp), then apply CeraVe AM moisturizer. After that dries I put on CoverFX primer which contains 1% salicylic acid. My question is whether or not it's ok to wear both BP and salicylic acid at the same time under my makeup.

I would say not to do that, bp alone is very harsh and is enough to kill the acne bacteria, salicylic acid might cause irritations along with bp.
