3 months on ZZ cream breakouts still on cheeks mostly

Post by jaylen956 »

I have been using the ZZ cream only at night for 3 months now. I will say my forehead had many whiteheads that I had to use a lancet to get out.
Now it's been reduced and mostly one side is still active with breakouts.

My cheeks has been breaking out more and it's red and bumpy. I am wondering when this will finally be clear...?!?!?

My chest and back has been completely cleared from the ZZ cream.

But for a week my chest and back felt sooo DRY like sand paper. And looked as if it was sunburned. But now it recovered and I was worried it permanently damaged my skin but seems ok now. In all my back which never was clear for over how many many years.... finally a dream come true clear =)

I am now only have main breakouts on my cheeks and some parts of my forehead, temples, and chin.

Maybe I need to use the cream in the morning also to make it more effective?

I do put a good amount after the first layer of the cream... I put an extra spot treatment on all my active breakouts. I feel as if it suffocates and kills the bacteria and mites off. Maybe it's too much layering?!?!

Am I applying this right? Let me know.... thank you.

If anybody has any suggestions or tips about controlling acne and helping it please let me know at

Hello

A clear back and chest is already a good start isn’t it?
Just continuo and your face will also become clear in time,
giving up to soon is the biggest mistake some people do.
No need to worry about the dry skin some people get in the beginning,
It will go away and for sure doesn’t damage the skin, it is just the dry upper layer
consisting of dead cells.
It looks you use a lot ZZ, that is not necessary, a very thin layer is enough,
of course, using more doesn’t harm if your skin can handle it.
extra spot treatment is good, helps to get rid of the infection sooner.
Using also in the morning is indeed better but once again, it all depends if your skin
can handle it, if yes, I would do if I was you.
