Contrary to what my name suggests, I am not a fan of this regimen. It personally made my acne 2-3X as bad as before I started using any topicals... and probably 20X as bad as when I was on the DKR. Fu...

To anybody still reading this thread:   I did this no-wash regimen for about 85 days straight. Actually, I created this username just so I could report my progress... At times I thought the regim...

Ferb & Elvin, can either of you provide an update on how the Candida diet is affecting your seborrheic derm?

Hey jmaaan, i can hear the frustration in your post, and I've been to that exact same spot. The first time I did the caveman regimen (summer 09) I felt so helpless against the battle with deadskin tha...

Sup yall! I've been using this gentle facial cleanser for about a week now. Cleansing Bar It seems I'm getting a bit of an initial breakout from it. I'm assuming its one of a few things, either my ski...

WHaddup everybody! A couple more things came to mind that I want to mention. I don't attribute 100% of my skin's success to the caveman regimen.. Come to think of it, I think it only served to about h...

Hey everybody! Quick story... So I know I said I quit this regimen on Day 45... and its true... i washed with a cleanser twice. Then I came to my senses, and I had this realization... If I dont follow...

Dear Cavemen and Cavewomen,   Day 45 So yea, I've been getting a ton of pimples lately. I couldn't figure out the cause, I've been eating as healthy as ever, I exercise everyday, etc. So I decide...

*Quirky I've only ever had slight scarring from my moderate acne, but its mostly redmarks. At any rate I do have both. The deadskin mask that formed has formed on top of both my scars and redmarks, so...

*realone2 Do you really need to wash your hair everyday? I only scrub my hair once per week. However, if my hair is standing on end from a full night of sleep, I will let water run on my head until my...

*yourworstnightmare Expect to see a near-full rebound of the deadskin masks gradually over the next 2 weeks.   *MilGirl Thanks for your advice. By the way, I'm also a junior and I think we both h...

*jmaaan Thanks for the support man, I really appreciate it. I know how extremely difficult it is to just "live like you don't have acne", but I try to keep my mindset like that. I used to dread those ...

* Sverd, My skin tone has improved vastly since I started this, however it doesn't quite match the rest of my body. Its getting there though Day 33 Ok, so after a week of backsliding I finally ...

*Tha Caveman Duac and Differin eh? Thats a winning combo. I was on that 2 years ago... but my nose was always beat red and I hated it. Don't wipe the oil off, just let it re moisturize your face. &nbs...

jmaaan If your face feels tight, after a full day + exercise, then try not washing for 3-5 days. If you don't feel an improvement in the way your face feels, then I'd say go back to washing. In that c...

Goodluck Thabai!! Looking forward to hearing your progress updates.   As for me; DAY 18 I'm a fan of bullet points, I think they get the point across much faster.   I splashed cold water on...

Lurking, my first attempt at this sounds much like yours. After 3 months, my cheeks on both sides of my nose had very red skin underneath the dead skin buildup. I wasn't sure if this was going to scab...

Day 14   OK. Not much has changed in the past 5 days. Breakouts have slowed slightly. Dead skin mask is thickening on my cheeks, jawline, and t-zone. Existing breakouts are trying out and flaki...

Thanks for posting that Hello! I definitely agree with you that to do this regimen, you need to be able to not feel self conscious about what other people are thinking about you. Thats actually why I ...

Any word from blaise? Curious if he is still doing this...   Keep it up Tominator; if you decide to drop shampoo let us know I'm considering going no-poo also.   Hello! Would you be so kind...

Day 9 So when I started this, I had every intention to not shave for the no wash period. I felt it would be better for a full skin recovery. This proved to be too difficult, I couldn't overcome the ...

The deadskin mask forms slowly, but by day 17 you should have a little bit of dead skin. Everybody's skin is different though, and maybe your skin doesn't really need to shed. A little bit of water/mi...

Josh I wouldn't call that moderate acne at all. Even calling it mild acne would be a stretch. The purpose of the caveman regimen is to let your skin recover from irritation and over treatment. I don't...
