    Unhappy Anyone with allergies to spot-busting skin treatments?

    Hi all

    I've recently broken out (which has not happened in quite a few years) so i bought near the entire Clean & Clear spot treatment range. Now my skin is itchy, puffy, red and dry, yet oily at the same time!

    Has anyone else had this with Clean & Clear or a similar experience?

    Cheers,

    Geisha

    It sounds like you may have over-loaded your skin by using the whole rnge at once. I use the Proactiv range (2.5% benzoil peroxide formula!) and with that you are recommended to ease your skin in gently to avoid reactions.

    Maybe probably pull it back to only using one of the products for a few days, then, if you still need it, introduce another untill its clear.

    UPDATE!

    You were right, i think i just panicked and basically burned my face off with lots of harsh products at once. All is well now and i've pulled back to a twice a week routine with one product only. I guess the moral is that to panic is to make matters worse!
