So I'm on about week 5 of the acne.org regimen. I've used 1 exactly pump of facewash, BP, and moisturizer twice a day every day. I noticed that after washing my face, my skin would be VERY flaky. My face would be covered in peeling skin. Is this normal, or should I use more moisturizer/less BP?
That's normal. A lot of people get peeling skin like that for the first few weeks. It subsides after a month or so.
Use more moisturizer. And feel free to add in 5-6 drops of jojoba oil, which can help. You can also add in a few drops of sunflower oil or safflower oil if you have those around instead of jojoba oil.
And at the 1 month mark, make sure to add in AHA+ as part of the regimen, which will clear up the flakiness like a charm.
