Le Mois

It might clog pores, dunnno. Acne overall goes down.

I just squeeze those. Fine for me.

Ok, thanks alot.. I hope it heals atleast ive just been usinv vitamin E cream on it now I dont care if that makes me have more pimples i just want my skin back to normal....It's prety bad ime going to have to miss gym class today becuase it hurts to move my neck and shoulders

It won't be permanent, don't worry. Don't put on anymore until your skin can heal, then restart again with less H&S.

If you have a brown spot, you just gotta wait. I haven't gotten anything that bad. You can keep it pre mixed, too, sure, in a bottle. Why me, start out weak, go stronger. I vary the dosage day by day. You'll get the hang of it. Mfoley, I do, if I use full strength. Ouch.

Thanks. Dan's Regimen has me basically clear. I just get a few now and then; this is one of them.

Nope, I didn't. You mighta put too much on the first time around.

Er...is it dead skin or not? IMO, if it's dead skin, you should try and get it off in a really gentle way, if it's at that stage where it peels if you don't moisturize. When I do is when I take my shower I use my hands just to rub my face VERY GENTLY, barely touching, to get the dead skin to come off. Works fine.

Basically, your face should be dry when you put on the the BP, and dry when you moisturize. Otherwise nothing soaks into your face as well.

I'd say they probably won't let ya. I know somebody who went through other basic military training and they basically take everything you braught and put it in a sack and give it back when you're done.

Do you think you're actually allergic to BP or just sensitive? If your face is dried out already, it may be too harsh outright to put BP on already dried out skin. Let your face reach a fairly healthy dryness...this means not just putting on moisturizer, solving it temporarily, but not putting anything on your face drying for maybe a day or two. Once you've done that, put on a very slight amont of BP. BP is harsh at first, but if you ramp it up slowly you should be fine, unless you're actual

Yeah...btw, this time I didn't pick at one of them, just to see what happened...and no pink spot this time!

Any tips for these little fellas? They've basically just swollen lumps. 2-3 days old now. Sit there, then eventually harden up. Outer layer of skin dies. Leaves pink spots. Finally normal again. Lame. I just use BP for now. Help? Thanks!

I use 2%. http://www.acne.org/messageboard/Before-an...en-t174804.html Made my own thread here.

I have one scar in the middle of my back that's left over, slightly red, but that's it. Clear! Here's what I do every evening after my shower (don't shower in mornings anymore, only wash face): Wet my back a bit Put about one and a half tablespoons of H&S onto my hands. Use a bit of water t

Yeah, blackheads come out easily for me.

Start off with barely any. It will irritate your skin at first. Add more gradually, and you'll get used to it.

I've been on the regimen for two weeks. All Dan's stuff. I'm following his directions pretty closely, though I have to rush in the mornings usually a bit. Here's what I'm finding: Many more clogged yet uninflamed pores from not squeezing. Will salicylic acid help? I don't want any peeling. Some deeper pimples around my chin/jaw. They're the kind that turn into a painful red lump, hang around for too long, and then fade. I gotten two-three of them so far (healed now), which is really rar

I get how BP works, now how does Salicylic work? What does it actually do to your skin? Cheers!

Yeah...I used to shower twice a day, morning and night. Now I shower in the evenings, and do the regiment, and then in the mornings, do only the regimen. While I'm still washing my face twice, the shower seems worse.

With the H&S water it down to 50% and put it on and leave it everytime you shower. Too much will leave a chemical burn. I'd give it two weeks too if you don't notice immediate effects. It kicked in basically straight away for me, though.

If that's your back with no treatment, a little bit of Head and Shoulders should clear you up. I have like 3-4x worse bacne without treatment, and using Head and Shoulders I never have more than 3 or so pimples at once. They pass very quickly too.
