Please read this if you are giving up on the regimen!!! This product has honestly changed my life, After battling with cystic acne for 6 years and visiting the doctors around 10+ times regarding my skin issues, I believed this was going to be with me forever. A nine month round of antibiotics cleared my acne extremely well until I finished and the pimples returned, albeit not quite as terrible as before. I had tried Dan?s regimen earlier in 2018 but gave up after experiencing a horrid breakout during exams (caused mainly by stress I think). In February 2019 my acne started to come back, and I turned again to the regimen for a second attempt. The first 3 months were awful. My skin was red, flaking and irritated. I developed eczema on my neck and jawline and I couldn?t smile without it cracking and peeling off. Considering I was at uni and wanted to go out with friends and have fun it was the worst timing ever. After seeing absolutely ZERO improvement after month 3 was over I emailed the acne.org support team as a final attempt to restore hope and motivation to continue the regime. They replied telling me if I kept going I would experience clear skin, so I stuck at it. I kid you not, by the end of month 4 my skin was 85% clear. When I did have a pimple, it was no longer cystic, just a slightly inflamed clogged pore. Now in month 6/7, I have never been so happy with my skin. The irritation is gone and I am 90% clear or active acne. It would be dishonest if I said I never get acne...I probably get one tiny pimple a week and 3-4 medium sized pimples a month but overall this regimen has worked literal miracles on my face. My advice is to not give up even if you?re months in!! I was so disheartened when I saw people?s great results after a matter of weeks. All our skin is different and some just take longer than others. Trust the process!!
My box arrived crushed, the products had opened and poured into the box. So I had less product and it was disappointing. The containers should be more suitable, especially for international transport. Otherwise I used this kit for 1 month and I was surprised at its effectiveness I would recommend it!
This is my first time using the acne.org products. I have suffered from adult acne and cystic acne with a lot of hyperpigmentation. I have spent hundreds of dollars looking for the right skin products and countless of hours at the dermatologist and nothing seemed to work for me. I have watched how these products transformed my daughter's skin and it gave me skin envy.
Now when i ordered the products i had every intention to follow the instructions and wait for my turn for skin envy. Anyway I started using too much of the benzoyl peroxide too early in my regimen an my skin was not happy, not happy at all. It became very dry, flaky, and lots and lots of peeling. I looked a mess! but i reduced my usage for a few days to weeks and added 6-8 drops of jojoba oil to the moisturizer every morning and evening which left me a lil greasy during the day but it was all worth it. Now my skin is under control and I can really see the difference, fewer pimples and when one does show up it doesn't last long. I still have a ways to go but I'm will on my way and after using this product for a month I'm starting to see and feel the difference over all.
My advise follow the instructions to the tee don't rush the process or it will take even longer.
Hi all! I don't usually write reviews but I know the bane of trying to find honest reviews, especially when trying to cure our face. So I am going to be as accurate as possible!
For years, I tried most stuff for my face (products to natural ingredients) and found a routine that finally works for my face after 2 years of really bad acne. So, I thought of sharing.
When I got this kit, I used it diligently. I usually leave the foam on my face for 2 minutes before washing it off.
Then I dab about 2 pumps of the toner and wipe my face with it.
For daytime, I use Clinique moisturiser (but honestly there are better ones out there, I rate the moisturiser 3/5). It does work well when I am putting makeup though.
At night, I'll use a "heavier" moisturiser since the toner can be a little drying for the face. I like to add a pump of argan oil for extra moisturising effect.
I don't usually use the toner every day, instead I alternate every 2-3 days. But I definitely used the cleanser everyday.
My face has improved tremendously. I hardly get breakouts (especially on period) and on occasions, pimples do appear but they go away really quickly.
I really recommend people trying this kit to help our faces get better. Highly recommended! For those going through the process of finding your routine, don't give up. I know it's tough but it will get better, I promise :)
i started using this product 3 weeks ago. just the treatment and i have seen sinificant changes though my acne keeps coming back. especially around my chin and jaw line. at least the pimples dry faster which is a good thing but i dnt know why i keep getting newer breakouts. the skin around my eyes can not stand the benzoyl. it makes it look ages older and all wrinkly. so when i apply the benzoyl, i try as much as possible to avoid areas around my eyes and neck. otherwise, am still hopeful it will work for me too and completely eliminate the jaw line acne too.
