I am going to have you stop using your active products (Acne Gel, Mandelic Serum, Salicylic Toner, and Clarifying Cleanser) for the next 48 hours. In the meantime, you can wash with your Gentle Facial Wash. After you wash with Gentle Facial Wash, apply either Vaseline or Aquaphor to your entire face for 30 minutes each day. Do this twice a day, once in the AM and once in the PM. After 30 minutes you can gently wipe it off with a wet towel or you can re-cleanse with your Gentle Facial Wash. Then use your Hydraboost, Balancing Lotion and SPF.
Please Note: Vaseline/Aquaphor does not clog pores and will help repair your lipid barrier.
After 48 hours, please let me know how your skin is doing before you restart your regimen. We want to make sure we can slowly re-introduce your skin to your active products.
After we determine you are able to resume with your regimen, use your Hydraboost before you apply your Mandelic Serum during the day, and before you apply your Acne Med at night. In addition to icing in the AM and PM, I am going to suggest also icing after you apply your Acne Gel in the evening as well as icing after you cleanse, and before you apply your Toner. Icing will help reduce inflammation in the pore, it allows products to penetrate better, and it is very soothing to the skin. :)
If you have any questions during this time, please let me know. Otherwise, I look forward to hearing from you on ___________!
