The Regimen

i have been using this system for about 3 weeks and i know its a little soon but i wanted to share my experience so far. My skin started breaking out when i was about 18-19 i am now 23. It was mild to moderate. I have been to several dermatologist and i have tried oral antibotics, which worked great. i dont remember which one it was but my skin in 3 months was beautiful!!BUT i was sick and tired of taking pills. I just felt like the long term effects of taking antibotics would not be worth it. Long story short i tried numerous over the counter products because my acne kept coming back and getting worse and everytime i went to the dermatologist it was just medication after medication of things that just didnt work! i finally had did some research on bp and i started with clean&clear persa gel 10%. i went through hell for the first couple months from redness, dryness i mean i cried a couple times because i was just so fed up with acne. After my skin adjusted to the bp thats what i was using for about a year and it did help clear me up but my skin didnt look flawless and i kept getting new pimples from time to time. I finally stumbled upon this website and dans products. after reading these reviews i finally decided to give it a try. SOOO it has been 3 weeks and i must say i am starting to feel like myself again. i dont wanna jinx it but i am starting to notice improvements. before i started the regimen i stopped using the clean&clear for a couple days so that my skin wouldnt get too crazy. the first week of the regimen was a bit confusing because my skin in the first couple days almost instantly looked better. as the second week began i started to notice my skin purging. now i know nobody wants to deal with this stage but i figured my skin has been so clogged for so long that i just had to deal with it. the reason i didnt get turned off from these products at the moment was because i noticed the purging was mainly happening from the pimples already on my face so i fel

The Acne.org regimen works. I've tried so many other products but this is far and away the most effective system I've ever tried. My acne started to improve in 1 week. After 2 moths I barley break out anymore. I used to have what seemed like constant breakouts on my forehead but now i almost never do! The regimen has made me feel so much more confident about myself. The only down side is that for the first month my skin was extremely dry, but after the jojoba oil helped that immensely. My sister has been dealing with acne for a couple years and nothing worked for her. When I started the regimen she commented on how good my skin looked and I introduced her to acne.org. The regimen also worked great on her skin. Thank You Dan!

I've had acne since I was 12 years old, and my dermatologist could do nothing for me;everything she recommended was expensive and did not work. When I was 21, I started researching online and found this regime. It is the ONLY thing that has worked for me. The BP is drying to my sensitive skin, but the regime works to manage that. It is still gentler than any other topical I've tried. I've been on it for over 2 years now and still going strong! I use a little less BP than Dan recommends - maybe my face is smaller, and my skin dries out very easily. I find this still works for me; I just never worked up to the full 2 pumps and stopped when I found the amount to be effective. And I can't say enough about the psychological benefits of finally controlling my acne. Nothing will "cure" acne, but this gives you a fighting chance at clear skin!

I wld recommend this regimen to anyone with acne. It has cleared up my skin completely. Affordable too.

It is an amazing product that delivers on what it say. When you wash your face, you can feel your pores got tighter and your skin feels so clean in a way you couldn't imagine. BP never dried out my skin. Take your time and be patient with the amount you put on. I wanted to put a lot to get results fast, but just take it slow. Lotion hydrates amazingly and doesn't give that weird oily too much lotion feeling. I really wish they hadn't sent me the two 8 oz lotion instead of the 16 oz! I would've waited a couple days if it was out of stock.

Let me just say this review is VERY long and I just wanted to give people every detail so they can know what to expect and can maybe relate. Also, I know my spelling and grammer isnt great. Lol Ok I have wanted to write this review so many times but decided now is the time to write it. I have been on the acne.org regimen for 7 weeks now. So a quick history on my skin..my skin was pretty clear growing up never really had any problems with it. But when I was 19 I noticed that I was starting to break out on my cheeks, which was so weird because earlier if i ever even got a pimple it would be on my forehead. I thought it might be the new makeup I'm using and threw it all out and went back to my powder that I used for years with no breakouts. A week later the pimples kept spreading and I literally woke up one morning and realized my whole face is pretty much covered in acne. The big pimples were mainly on my cheeks but i also had these small bumps across the rest of my face. I never thought I would get acne considering that no one in my family or any of my relatives had acne. I was so embarrassed about it, I cried, I hid in my room, I didnt want to go anywhere. People were asking me whats wrong with your face. Ugh it was terrible. Of course I started searching the internet and started doing everything I possibly could to get rid of it. Started drinking tons of water, completely cleaned up my diet, changed my pillowcase everyday, started doing all these masks and just anything that people reccomended. Nothing helped. I started buying one thing after the other and nothing was helping! I was so frustrated! One day at the store I saw a tea called Yogi skin detox. I bought it not really expecting any results but was like ah I'll try it. The tea cleared me up completely. I was sooo happy, but it didnt last for long. A couple months later I started breaking out again. This time the tea wasnt helping or anything. Fast forward 3 years later and I'm still dealing with the acne and now the acne scarring. I'm 100% sure its hormonal from reading online about the types of acne. Seeing how the scars were ruining my skin I desperately started searching for something else. Keep in mind by this point I felt like I tried EVERYTHING. (Other than prescription drugs) Somehow I came across acne.org and started reading reviews and I was like wow I've got to try this. I ordered it and first negative thing I noticed was it said shipping 3-8 days. Shipping took FOREVER like 3 weeks. Even though I live in the US. I wasnt too happy but eventually I got it and was thrilled when I did. I followed it step by step and the first week I noticed my forehead cleared up almost completely and the rest of my face was getting clearer. But of course it wasnt all great. My skin was red, itchy, flaky I was so irritated, because I was using so little of the bp and was still getting these awful side effects. Even though it was VERY DIFFICULT I stuck through it and stopped wearing makeup throughout this process. Believe me that was a huge step for me because I literally always wore makeup. I never wore heavy foundation or anything like that. Just the same powder I've been using for like 8 years and some concealer. People please don't tell me it's the makeup. Its not. Keep in mind I used the same makeup for 5 years with no breakout. Anyway week 2 I had a bad breakout on my chin 4 HUGE pimples and a few on my cheeks. I was mad but I kept going. Week 3 I was getting clearer. Week 4 no active pimples at all. Week 5 no pimples. Week 6 no pimples. Still flaky and slightly red. I was also using the jojoba oil (not the one dan sells, I recommend getting a more natural one) about 6 drops into 2 pumps of moisturizer every night. All this time I'm still using very little bp and cleared up and kept clear. I think the amount Dan says to use is WAYYYYY too much and your face will literally burn and flake off. I would say use what feels comfortable for you. And when in doubt do not use more unless the amount youre using is not enough to clear the acne. Anyway even with this small amount of bp I'm still so flaky and red. Idk why...I'm loading on the moisturizer and jojoba oil. And using about 3/4 of a pump of cleanser for only 10 seconds like it says. The one month set lasted me for 7 weeks. But I was not using as much as it said because it was toooo much. The only thing i was using a lot of was the moisturizer. I still have like half or maybe more of the bp. I ordered the 2nd larger kit and again shipping was soo slow. Anyway after week 6 I decided it was time to start using the aha..after reading reviews I was scared and using only a pea sized amount in 2 pumps of moisturizer at night. No burning no tingling nothing just felt very thick on the skin and uncomfortable. Next day used a little bit more and again no burning or anything and so now I've used it about 5x and ever since I started, i've been breaking out. Not badly just a few pimples but its frustrating because my skin was clear for 3 weeks and now pimples again. It might just be purging so I'll stick with it and update again. So overall does this product work? Yes. But you have to be willing to accept the redness and flakiness. Also not wearing makeup for the first month. If the negative side effects continue I'm not sure if I will continue. Also since the products expose new skin it has made my face very white. And its summertime and Im trying not to wear makeup so it's not too great. Am I willing to accept all these negatives just to have fewer pimples? I'm not sure. No decrease in acne marks yet either. I'll update in a month on the AHA. If you have any questions I would love to answer. Sorry for the LONG review lol Just want everyone to know exactly what you might go through. I have before and after pictures but have not gained the courage to post them yet. Lol

I've always been pretty lazy about taking care of my skin. I would wash my face in the shower, and that's about it. As I entered my mid-thirties, my face began breaking out like I was a teenager. It was also dull and I was noticing age spots and gaping pores on my nose and chin. I had tried the BP treatment from acne.org years ago, and I remember it working well. So I bought another bottle and started using it religiously. (I paired it with Neutrogena Natural face wash and Cetaphil and Cerave moisturizers.) One day, I received an unexpected package in the mail: a full sample-sized Regimen kit. I was surprised! I can't think of another company that has sent me such a generous gift for trying their product. The kit also came with coupons, which I used to purchase cleanser and the AHA product. The Regimen works great. After about a month, my skin was pretty clear. I only suffer the occasional pimple- I do not break out like I used to. Here's a review of each of the separate products: Cleanser: Happy with the cleanser. It is very gentle, doesn't have a heavy fragrance, and removes a lot of my makeup. I do use jojoba oil (from Trader Joe's) to get rid of all my mascara and eyeliner, and I follow the cleanser with a gentle toner (from Simple) to get the guck the cleanser didn't. I don't know if the cleanser is 'better' than, say, Cetaphil, but I appreciate the size, the pumping mechanism, and the overall cost. It lasts a long time, and I trust this brand. Benzoyl Peroxide: Most of the over 'the- counter treatments contain 10% BP, which is okay for spot treatment, but not for spreading over your entire face. The BP will clear your skin and will then work to prevent further breakouts. I've never seen a similar product like it out there. The generous size makes it a great bargain. This stuff changed my life! Any amount of BP will dry out the skin, so using a moisturizer is crucial. However, my skin is now used to the BP, and if I skip the moisturizer, I'm okay. Give it a good six weeks to clear up your skin. If it doesn't work, time to see the dermatologist' Moisturizer: I've used the sample moisturizer, and I had no problem with it. However, I like my Cetaphil morning moisturizer because it has sunscreen. I'm also trepidatious because of acne.org moisturizer's negative reviews: I have fair skin and do not want to stain my face yellow! (Though, I have heard the licorice root is also supposed to fade dark spots.) Because I am approaching 40, I am interested in an anti-aging nighttime moisturizer. Right now, I am using Cerave nighttime moisturizer, but will probably try something new when it is gone. AHA: Love this stuff. Great price for such a large bottle. I started slowly, mixing some with my moisturizer. Then I tested an inconspicuous spot on my neck. Now I put it straight on my entire face two to three times a week in place of moisturizer. I always wake up with more glowy skin, and it definitely helps with breakouts. Suggestions: I would love to see a moisturizer with SPF' or even a separate SPF that won't cause blemishes. BP and AHA increase sensitivity to the sun, and so it's important to incorporate SPF into a daily routine. I would also love to see more information about mixing skincare products on the site. For instance, I didn't realize retinol and BP used together can actually cancel out the other's effectiveness. Vitamin C, a popular collagen-boosting ingredient in serums, shouldn't be used with AHAs. I am interested in using other anti-aging products that work with acne-fighting products. Finally, I still have large pores on my nose and chin, and some blackheads. I would love to see a blackhead treatment in the acne.org arsenal. Overall, I'm extremely pleased with the products, the customer service, and the value of the products. Strongly recommend to anyone battling acne.

following the method exactly as written and using the shaving method has worked so well with my skin its crazy. my skin is great and have finally found a method that suites me perfectly. i used to have tiny pustules and ance around my mouth/when shaving......now nothing after only a month and half of use. Highly recommend.

I received my acne.org regimen kit in the post about a week ago and I honestly haven't seen my skin this clear in the past 7 years. I am one of those people that is constantly thinking and being conscious about their skin whenever I was out or even just in the house looking in the mirror on my own, i haven't had clear skin in the past seven years although I have tried everything on my face, from dermabrasia to all the antibiotics and creams from the doctors and I even saw a private dermatologist but nothing ever worked. I don't write reviews but I have honestly never been happier with a product in a very long time. I use the regimen kit exactly how the instructions tell you to, i also purchased the jojoba oil because my eyes are very dry, my skin is either super dry or super oily and not much inbetween unfortunately but this has done wonders! My skin is so soft and smooth. Honestly if you have been struggling with skin troubles for a while and nothing has worked please give this a try, I know not everyone's skin is the same but it's definitely worth the risk and the money!!

This is the only treatment that we found that worked for my teenage son! Over the course of two years, he's tried everything except Accutane - which he couldn't use due to a liver issue. But he's tried light therapy, laser therapy, aesthetician, strict dietary restrictions, antibiotics, dermatologists, and all Rx and OTC topicals known to man. As a last resort, I said "Let's try this" - he was hesitant as he was sure it was going to be like all the others, but to our surprise, it actually worked to clear him up! He had moderate acne, not super severe acne, but it was enough that we spent thousands of dollars trying to find the right treatment. He felt like two days after starting the treatment, he was noticing a difference. It probably took a good 2 months for it to completely clear up. And his skin looked great! It was actually smooth! I never thought his skin would look so great again! Very thankful we found acne.org!
