I bought this set after changing some contraceptives (horrible hormonal acne). I'm on about 2.5 weeks of the cycle and I can already see a difference. My skin tone is evening and the texture is smoother. I have very sensitive skin (rashes, eczema, sunburn very easily) so I was very careful when using the gel. A few things: 1. If you have sensitive skin I would recommend starting with this every other night or three. I've also tried switching between face and chin/neck area at night.2. It is very important to allow the skin to dry completely after bathing before applying the gel. I wait at least 30 minutes after a shower, apply gel and then wait another 30 minutes before applying a heavy moisturizer before bed. I learned the hard way - it can burn really badly if you don't let the skin dry.3. I didn't have any scaly/dry skin on my forehead but a lot of flaking/flaking from the eyes + down. Another tip I read was to use a fresh nail file to gently remove dry skin instead of trying to use tweezers or scraping it off. If I apply the gel too close to the eye area or around the lips, I get very irritated areas of the skin. A generic hydrocortisone cream clears it up. In the morning I wash my face, wait about 10 minutes to apply moisturizer, wait another 10 to apply sunscreen, wait another 10, then do my makeup. If I take steps that are too fast, my makeup will immediately slide off my face. I added travel moisturizer to my makeup bag as my skin starts to dry and flake around 2pm. When I apply some moisturizer to dry areas (with clean hands of course), let it sink in and then top up with powder, it doesn't look like my face is cracking! I use Garnier micellar water to remove makeup before using a gentle cleanser. The cleanser works, but it's clearly not enough to remove makeup.7. Bring a hat if you're going to be outside for more than 10-15 minutes. Sun sensitivity is no joke, it's not worth it!8. If you are a person who wants to wax or thread eyebrows/lips, I would like to wait until you start this mode after application. Waxing is out of the question. Before you begin, make sure your brows are fresh. You have to cut a lot. Hope that helps!
