I also just started, today is the third day. The redness isn't as bad as I feared, but I'm not using BP on my whole face (trying to use only where I have acne) and it looks pretty weird right now. It ...

All I can say is that I wish I hadn't stopped. Yeah, the routine annoyed me but in hindsight I should have kept going. If you want to stop, then don't stop cold turkey, but gradually reduce it, like t...

Sounds a lot like what happened to me, too. Panoxyl discontinued meant that I could no longer get any (reasonably priced) 2.5.% BP. I stopped and tried some other stuff, but it only got worse. It's ca...

I went from applying BP twice/day to nights only, and I had no problem to stay clear (I counted the odd spot as clear - good enough!). I still cleansed and obviously moisturized in the mornings, but a...

I can't remember exactly but I don't think it took me longer than a month. I was clear in a picture I took after having used it for nearly two months. I only have mild though, so that's probably a fac...

I've heard both yay and nay regarding TTO, but I have been curious about it. Perhaps I will try it before BP. Whether I'll do nothing, go for BP, or try TTO, I will let you know how it goes. Meanwhile...

Where do you live that you cannot import Dan's Products? And panoply is of higher concentration, so you might have to wait double the time that if took you to get used to the 2.5% BP or even more. Wha...

I get pretty much the same recently, but I haven't shaved in a month around there. I'm thinking that it could be due to toothpaste since it's more around my mouth than anywhere else.

Welcome! There was a topic on products available in Sweden somewhere, written in Swedish. I think in the International Supplies section. Anyway, what you can also do is to order cleanser and moisturis...

Apologies for the late reply as I'm on a trip. It's pretty evident that tea did very little now, as it's been weeks without. Yes, if I was still a teen I wouldn't despair. But I'm clearly not outgrowi...

Foolhardy. I'm out in the open with acne that would have crippled me if I wasn't on a trip. It's like I have nothing to lose. Shame that it's so hard to apply the same attitude at home where things ar...

I don't know how quoting works on the phone (on a long trip), but I quit for two reasons, I guess. First, Panoxyl was discontinued. Since I can't import Dan's BP, my only 2.5 BP was removed. Second, I...

Seeing your results makes me wish I had never stopped BP. I was perfectly clear but foolish me still wasn't happy! Strongly considering starting again, because as you say, it had huge impact on my con...

It's been a month since I switched from BP (after slowing down for weeks) to green rooibos, and unfortunately I haven't seen any improvement. Constantly getting new spots and some large, painful ones ...

I'm oddly okay despite starting to break out from dropping BP. I thought I'd be crying and cursing my life by now, but quite the opposite. Maybe I'm ready to live with this. Seeing how my forehead see...

Don't even think about not going. I'm soon leaving for a very long trip and I won't let acne stop me. I'm starting to break out again, but acne or not - I will enjoy the trip. It'd be madness to hide ...

Great post. I can totally relate to most of it. I'm fighting this obsession and it's very difficult to break free from. I'm slowly making progress and this post was very motivating. Recently I've star...

Tempted to give this another go... BP is starting to make me upset. I don't think I gave it enough time last try, plus I freaked out when I broke out from quitting BP (I'd suppose).   BP is pre...

Tempted to give this another go... BP is starting to make me upset. I don't think I gave it enough time last try, plus I freaked out when I broke out from quitting BP (I'd suppose).

I just wanted to mention that I really like your attitude towards this. Most would probably have given up by now, so it's great that you're sticking to it. Good luck!

Not good... I suppose I will have to work with 4-5% since importing Dan's to Sweden is too risky. Luckily I'm not completely out of 2.5%, and it should last me almost until the end of the year.

I'm breaking out too. Noticed it today, and it keeps getting worse. I'm losing hope. I don't know if I should give this more time, or just go back to BP. Can't be happy either way, it seems. Bleh.

Face is recovering from the dryness caused by BP, it's not quite there yet, but I can definitely go without moisturising now. With BP it felt like my face would crack at the smallest movement, but now...

My face has already calmed down a lot, but I'm seeing some new spots. However, I think it's too early to judge. Maybe my batch was too light after all (likely). Maybe I ate something (likely - I celeb...
