And your Acne Stop Kit recommendation at the end
1) What is your pore size?
Look in the mirror at the pores at the top of your cheeks that are close to your nose. Use these pores to click
your pore size below. Read an explanation of why this matters
here
You can use this method to know your skin type. Look in the mirror and notice the pore size in different areas
of your face. The most common acne skin type is combination skin with larger pores on the chin, nose, upper
cheeks and the area between the eyebrows. Also consider how shiny or oily your skin becomes by mid-day. If there
is no shine you do not have oily skin. If your skin is shiny by mid-day you most likely have oily skin.
2) What is the general weather like outside currently?
All non-clogging cleansers are drying but your cleanser is very gentle and will help your skin from becoming dry.
If your skin is extra dry use your cleanser only once or twice a week and on the other nights just use warm water
and a washcloth. Cleansing instructions here.
Your cleanser is gentle and will aid in keeping your skin balanced. Only use your cleanser once per day.
Your cleanser is non-clogging and removes oils, debris and makeup very well without overstripping your skin.
Your cleanser is non-clogging and oil stripping. It will remove the extra oils and debris resulting from hot humid
weather and oily skin.
You have grade I acne. You may not get a lot of benefit from facials. It is worth it to give one a try or maybe
just have a facial one or two times a year.
You have grade II acne. Only an experienced Esthetician that uses a disposable puncturing tool to express the tiny
bumps is recommended. Every 4 weeks until 80% clear and then every 6 weeks typically needed.
You have grade III acne. Facials will be very helpful for you. Every 4 weeks until 80% clear and then every 6
weeks typically needed.
Use your kit 3-6 weeks and do ice therapy daily for 4 weeks, to reduce inflammation, before trying a facial. The
sensitive pain of any inflamed acne should be reduced somewhat before doing facials. Then a facial every 4 weeks
until 80% clear and then every 6 weeks typically needed. Continue ice therapy on an as needed basis for any red
inflamed or deep pimples. *If you have ONLY deep red cystic acne with no little bumps or blackheads or pus filled
heads, facials are typically not therapeutic. In this case ice therapy is always helpful to do with the BP Gel one
or two times a day.
Remember, ice therapy for only 5 minutes, pat dry and then apply the 10% BP Gel immediately while the skin in
still very cold. See the Ice Therapy instructional video.
5) Are you and your skin properly hydrated?
Using the top of your forearm pinch a large portion of skin and then release. Not enough skin to cause pain but
enough to be able to see the skin retract back. Does the skin snap back totally into place in less than half of a
second?
It appears you are well hydrated - good job! Does hydration improve acne? There is no direct proof but it does
improve digestion which may help acne.
It appears you may be dehydrated. If you drink a lot of water but still are dehydrated you may need to add some
electrolytes (powder form, not a sugary drink) to your water. Does hydration improve acne? There is no direct
proof but it does improve digestion which may help acne.
