4.3

You're very right. More is not always good. And Dan recommends that. Using a thick layer of benzoyl peroxide really made my face worse to the point where the right side of my face got swollen due to the amount of acne that formed. I'm off the regimen and decided to go herbal. Getting my complexion back, swelling has gone down and acne is minimal

thanks @Tchristina @sarawold. But I'm going to stop this regimen for my own health and sanity

Hello! *UPDATE* Unfortunately I have to stop the treatment cause I'm definitely reacting to the benzoyl peroxide. The whole right side of my face is swollen and the acne on my forehead and cheeks get worse every single day!!! This is the 4th week and this is extremely disappointing, as I was looking forward to this regimen being my last resort. Also, I don't believe the cleanser does anything. When I wash my face morning and night, I use my finger just to scratch the side of my nose and the amount of dirt that comes out is horrible. I'm not allowed to wash my face hard just so I don't irritate it more, but gosh!! The dirt is annoying. I can actually see the dirt still sitting on my face when I'm done washing it. The cleanser doesn't do anything at all. Before I got on the regimen, my face was presentable. I could still manage to go out, but now this has only made me feel/look worse than I have been. Sometimes it's supposed to get worse before it gets better but damn!! I don't think the right side of my face should be swollen for days. Looks like I've been in a fight or have a whole bunch of candy in my mouth. I'll show pictures but I'm too embarrassed and Insecure to. Just to make things clear, I followed the instructions as stated. I watched what I ate, washed my hands constantly, changed pillows cases, covered my hair to sleep. Basically changed my lifestyle routine just so I see wonderful results and write success story but I look like a creature right now. I'm extremely sad and disappointed. I'm not trying to risk staying on this regimen before I end up in an emergency room. *FIRST REVIEW* I started on this regimen and I'm 2 weeks in. Ive followed the instructions to the T but sadly, I've been breaking out extremely bad. Consistent Pus filled pimples on my forehead and checks. My face is actually worse than it was before I started on this regimen. It hurts/itches really bad and I get depressed when I look at my face. I stay away from junk/oily food, I exercise, wash my hands every seconds, keep hands away from face, change pillow case and beddings every week and also use a different towel on my face. Is this my body just purging or am I reacting to this regimen. I honestly don't want to believe it's a reaction cause it has worked well for a lot of people and I'm hoping it would work for me too. Can someone/Dan please advice? I really don't want to give up
