My soap + z cream just arrived. My daily log begins!

Post by baybeebubble »

Hi everyone !

My z cream has just arrived. I didn't expect it 2 arrive so soon. The service is excellent. I placed my order last thursday afternoon and I recieved it this morning (tuesday). I can't wait 2 get started. I've already opened the z cream to see what it looks like. It's alot more solid than I imagined it would be. You can see why some people would have difficulty in applying it. Anyway I'll speak to you all tomorrow and tell you how i got on with my first application.

Bye x x

Take pictures

Take pictures of yourself now.

I wish I had done that. I would be able to show the results of treatment.

Please do it -- take pictures of yourself. Even if you don't share them with us, you will be able to see the progress for yourself.

2nd day using z cream

Post by baybeebubble »

Well the products arrived 2 days ago. The z cream is not as drying as I thought it would be. I use the z cream at night and a little bit in the morning. I also ordered the acrid removing soap. I have to be honest I don't like it very much. It left my skin feeling tight and made these lines appear under my eyes which I never get! Anyway I stopped using the soap the night I had it. I use my normal dermalogica special cleansing gel then the z cream. Any way so far my skin is pretty much the same except no oilyness builds up on my skin throughout the day anymore. Oh and I'd also warn you if you put to much on it can make you look really white.

I'll get back to you guys in a few days and update you on how i'm getting on x x x :lol:

5th day on z cream

Post by baybeebubble »

Wow what can I say!!!!!

My skin looks noticably better (AND I'M ONLY ON MY 5TH DAY OF TREATMENT). No new spots for the past 3 days and the red marks look fainter. I'm hoping it's going to continue to improve. I really hope that I don't experience a short period where your skin can get a little worse before it gets better.

My pores look tighter and the little blackheads seem to be fading away before my very eyes.

I don't want to get too excited yet. I'm worried that this is just a phase. Well I'll just have to wait and see.

I use the z cream every night and a little bit in the morning. (I've also been using and organic aloe gel in the morning where the skin felt a bit dry)

On the 3rd day my skin was pretty dry and felt tight. I think I may have been using too much. I reduced the amount and now my skin feels a bit more comfortable.

The only stange thing is the area around my eyes seems to be more dry than any other area of my face and I don't even put the z cream any where near this area! Anybody have any answers as why this maybe happening???

Well, since everybody is reacting so different I really can not predict what will happen in the short term, it can be that you just continuo to improve but also that you will have some setbacks, time will tell and of course I hope you will only improve, main thing is that if there would some setbacks occur you don't give up and just continuo treating.
Nice to see your pores shrink again isn't it?
the mites block them and that is why they became bigger.
Using to much is something what most people do in the beginning, that is not necessary, after a while you will be able to tolerate more without dry skin but once again, that is not necessary, just use what your skin can handle. :lol:

keep us informed
