Is there any history of the Acne.org benzoyl peroxide causing dark spots? I ask because recently I have seen a dark spot appear on my cheek and it was never a zit, was never raised or inflamed. I ha...

If I ever did try to stop the regimen, it would make sense for it to be a gradual ramp down of the routine. Maybe start with using less product, then eventually doing it once a day, then every other d...

It's tiring doing the Regimen every day, twice per day for 7 YEARS. I want to see if I have finally outgrown acne. Most people outgrow acne after adolescence and I'm 27 years old so perhaps I too have...

I'm a 27 year-old male and have battled acne for 13 years. I have been on the Regimen for the last 7 years and have remained almost completely clear except for a brief 2 month period from mid-November...

I've decided I'm just going to apply BP on my left and right temples, my forehead and my nose during the day and do the full regimen at night. That way it becomes virtually impossible for any part of ...

No, why would I wipe my face with my shirt? That would just get the BP on my shirt and ruin it.   For some reason, only the area inside my collar and around the top button gets bleached. It's th...

I'm not the only one with the bleaching problem. If you search 'bleach' in the search area you will see hundreds of posts dealing with this very issue.   I want to maintain clear skin but can't ...

Has anyone remained clear by only doing the Regimen once per day at night and substituting AHA for BP in the morning? I'm 100% clear with the Regimen twice per day, but refuse to ruin more shirts with...

The bleaching on my shirts is on the inside of the collars and around the first button (not an area where I would touch with my hands). I don't apply BP on my chin area because I don't get acne there,...

1. The tips of my hair are bleached! I'm a guy with dark hair and am careful to avoid my hair coming in contact with BP but the tips of my hair are orange and light. I look like a member of a '90s boy...

Mix jojoba oil in with your moisturizer. Only use 5-6 drops because more than that can leave a shine. It works wonders and you can use it right away instead of waiting a month like with AHA.

I'm happy to report that my recently ordered Acne.org jojoba oil has arrived and I used it today for the first time. WOW! What a difference just 5 drops makes! My skin feels softer, hydrated and is ...

So, I recently re-started the Regimen after stopping it cold turkey in October of last year (was on it for 5 years) to see if I had outgrown acne (26 yr. old male with no family history). Turns out I ...

Dan recommends 2 full pumps of Acne.org moisturizer which is a good call for people on The Regimen because it helps keep the skin moisturized after benzoyl peroxide. How have people gotten the 2 full...

Long-story short. I achieved 100% clearing on The Regimen using store-bought products and was on it for 5 years. I stopped in October of last year thinking that I might have naturally grown out of acn...

Long story short, I used The Regimen for 5 years previously and achieved 100% clear skin. I decided to stop cold turkey in mid-October of last year thinking I outgrew my acne (I was a completely clear...

I too just got charged for products that I never bought. I'm the third person on this thread alone who has been charged for items I never ordered or received. My skin has taken a turn for the worse af...

Most people do outgrow their acne naturally. I have a feeling your skin DOES become addicted to the oxygen provided by the Benzoyl Peroxide. This is why people are not able to successfully stop The Re...

I haven't heard of anyone successfully stopping The Regimen and staying clear even when he/she should have traditionally outgrown acne after adolescence has ended. I propose this question because I ...

So after a little bit of passive aggressive conversation with Proactiv customer service, I cancelled my account with them. Here is the problem with Proactiv for the customer. It takes at least 3 week...

So I was super excited to try this product.. But not to happy with it so far. I'm only on week two. When I first started using it I had my monthly. And I had some pretty bad brake outs. Even thought I...

Kaystevens, sorry to hear Proactiv Plus did not work for you. If you think the BP is causing your acne due to excessive irritation, dryness, sensitivity etc. I would absolutely NOT do the Acne.org reg...

I've had excellent results using the new Proactiv+ and so have many others on this site. There is another thread in the General Acne Discussion regarding the new Proactiv+ that you should read. I find...

I did try slowly tapering off numerous times over the course of the 5 years. Once at the one year mark and a few times over the next four years.   However, each time I reduced the BP to less tha...

Quick Summary: 1) I achieved completely clear skin on the Acne.org Regimen and used it for 5 years up until the end of October of this year. 2) I stopped the regimen (only cleansed and moisturized) a...
