Hyperpigmentation /acne Scars Hi I would highly recommend the sunscreen by LaRoche-Posay. I have used their SPF 50 sunscreen specifically for my skin, and I love it. It is not greasy at all like a lot of sunscreens, applies very ... | 11 years ago | |
Best Sun Cream For Acne Prone Skin? There is a suscreen by LaRoche-Posay, which is FANTASTIC. It is a more runny consistency, compared to the usual sun creams, which are thick and greasy, and leave behind that oily, sticky looking shine... | In forum Acne | 11 years ago |
Covering Acne With Concealer Hey there. Concealer shouldn't look dry or flakey when applied, if it is a cream/liquid concealer. If you want it to apply smoothly, you need to firstly make sure that your skin is well hydrated, moi... | In forum Acne | 11 years ago |

Confused Hi What you are experiencing is an initial breakout, it is completely normal to break out while first starting the Regimen. Secondly, you do not need to wait to wash off the BP. The BP absorbs int... | In forum The Regimen | 11 years ago |
Starting Regimen Tonight. Question On Face Washing! Hi Personally, I don't think that washing/moisturising your face three times a day would make too much of a difference. I mean, on the Regimen, they really want you to touch your face as little as... | In forum The Regimen | 11 years ago |
Hi That happens to me, too. Whenever I apply BP, my eyes start burning and sometimes tearing. I make sure to avoid the eye area, but as I have very sensitive eyes, the BP applied to/around my cheek areas... | In forum The Regimen | 11 years ago |
Acne.org Regimen Or Accutane I would try the regimen first, as like you said, Accutane does have an insane amount of side effects. If you're leaning towards something you can take orally, though, I would try something less intens... | In forum Acne | 11 years ago |
Under Skin Red Spots Hi The dark spots you're referring to are hyperpigmentation. They are the dark spots which remain after the acne itself has gone. They are really annoying and take 10 times longer than acne to get r... | In forum The Regimen | 11 years ago |
Cetaphil Moisturizer? I'm assuming you are using the Cetaphil Moisturising Lotion. It s pretty much the same consistency as the Regimen moisturiser, maybe a little thicker, and absorbs quicker than Dan's. It's pretty muc... | In forum The Regimen | 11 years ago |
Acne Or Severe I'm not sure to be honest, I'd say it's acne that's sitting underneath your skin and hasn't come to the surface yet. | In forum Acne | 11 years ago |
Sun And Acne I agree with AldoMG, 10-20 minutes of sun exposure a day is ideal. Perhaps your acne seems to be more red because you're using Epiduo, which causes your skin to become sensitive, especially when it co... | In forum Acne | 11 years ago |

Help! Don't give up. Your skin is simply adjusting to the treatment (BP). When I first tried using benzoyl peroxide long ago (before the regimen), my skin hated it. It was itchy, irritated, flaky, dry, red.... | In forum The Regimen | 11 years ago |
Doing The Regimen Wouldn't Be Twice As Bad... Yes, it takes a while, but it's so worth it. I recently started the regimen and I've already noticed an improvement in my skin, and no new breakouts. It's not bad if you do things in between. For ex... | In forum The Regimen | 11 years ago |
Flaking And Dryness, Should I Stop Caring!? Yes, definitely buy some Jojoba Oil! It not only moisturises your skin, and is also great at eliminating flakiness! I've been using it for over 5 months and I love it. You can also add a few drops of ... | In forum The Regimen | 11 years ago |
Bb Creams Do You Use Them? What Do You Know? Hi I stopped wearing liquid foundation about a year and a half ago, and now only use Khiel's Actively Correcting and Beautifying BB Cream. It doesn't make me break out, and really helps with fadin... | In forum Cosmetics & grooming | 11 years ago |
Shiny From Moisturizer Bad? I have used the cetaphil lotion before, and it made me look shiny. Plus I didn't really like the feel of it because it always felt sticky on my face, and felt like it never really absorbed. I am cur... | In forum Acne | 11 years ago |
Afraid Of Going To The Dentist? I don't think so. The glasses they give you are cleaned before/after each patient, and even if dentists may touch your face, they are wearing gloves. Unless you have an allergy to latex, I don't thi... | In forum Acne | 11 years ago |
Can't Wash My Face Twice With Cleanser, Help? I would say to try a different cleanser. "Oily Skin" Cleansers can be a bit harsher or stronger, directly targeting sebum production, and stripping your face of that extra oil. I would switch to s... | In forum The Regimen | 11 years ago |
The Regimen And Dark Spots Hi I am currently also dealing with dark spots/hyperpigmentation, and I would just recommend using natural products. There are many face masks and spot treatments you can apply to your face, which... | In forum The Regimen | 11 years ago |
