Can you use P50 if using prescription Retin A? Do you need to use the whole BR range to get benefits?Welcome back! Missed your videos!

[@jenadamsuk]

Sorry only just seen this! I would not use p50 with retin A if you want to the space them apart, so p50 in morning and retin A in evening? No you do NOT need the whole range… only the p50 as that improves the efficiency of all your other products!

Hi! I puchased P50W time ago. I tried to build tolerance and though it made my acne better , never got to sit comfortable on my skin. Im giving it another try as i have a almost full bottle of the lotion. Yesterday night i used 5 drops on a cotton pad, and this morning i woke up with discomfort , redness and a lot of sebum on the skin. Is it the prodcut just not for me ? do ihave to keep using it but less frequently ? Thank you

[@jenadamsuk]

I’d suggest using on dampen cotton of for a week and then on normal cotton pad every other day and build up to every day. Stick with it as it is getting to the root cause of your acne…

I’ve been using p50 pigment 400 and p50 v. I used one of them straight one or twice a day for over a year. Went to hawaii, last day as I was getting on the airplane I put on crème masque vernix. My boyfriend said I had some pimples. I looked in the mirror and both checks were covered in red bumps. They did not itch. There was no heat. I tried benadryl for a week before I found your video. I guess my skin is purging. I hope it goes away soon. I washed with lait e. V. And didn’t put anything else on. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

[@jenadamsuk]

Yes, our skin does not like the change of pressure when we fly, and the mask was just a bit too much hydration and caused over production of sebum… no you have done 👍 everything right… hope you enjoyed Hawaii xx

Can i dampen the cotton with those thermal water sprays? Specifically la roche posay

[@jenadamsuk]

Unsure what you mean? Expand a little more for me?

[@kareena281]

@@jenadamsuk to dilute the p50 in the first week, can i use spring water sprays? The spray ones like evian, la roche posay, avene💕

I’ve been using P50 original for over a year. Now that I am using it I am getting dry, itchy patches. They look like contact dermatitis. 😢 can I no longer use P50 do I go back to P50W why the sudden reaction after a year use?

[@Jazminlarracuente]

This is happening to me! From lotion p50. Couldn’t figure out what’s going on with my face and neck and all of the itchiness. So sad

[@jenadamsuk]

I’d suggest it’s your body’s histamine changes rather than your skin or p50. Are you menopausal or hormones changed?

[@Jazminlarracuente]

@@jenadamsuk I’m 28 and I removed everything but lotion p50 pigm 400. Nasty itchy rashes and swollen eyes. A patch test has shown I’m reactive to something in it. I was an active Tretinoin user before it which probably made me a bad candidate for lotion p50. However, I had perfect skin and perfect texture before lotion p50. Once I tried it, my skin is completely messed up and developed contact dermatitis/ eczema. I’m so sad because this toner is supposed to be the holy grail. It isn’t for everyone.

[@smithereens7105]

Is it normal for the purge to last 3 months? I don't appear to be having an allergic reaction. The breakouts are where I normally get them but they're closed comedones that are not going away quickly as is characteristic of a purge. Concerned I've come this far for nothing

[@jenadamsuk]

Yes strange p50 normally solves those issues within weeks to be honest. Must be coming from somewhere else? Maybe food intolerances? If on forehead between eyebrows then you have a lactose tolerance!

[@smithereens7105]

@@jenadamsuk it's a long my cheeks and jawline. Seems that it's likely hormonal. But the lotion p50 just makes them worse

[@jenadamsuk]

@@smithereens7105 Ermm how long have you been using p50 and how often do you use it?

[@smithereens7105]

@@jenadamsuk since November 11th and I gradually built up to 1x a day but have recently scaled back. It doesn't seem to really be helping with my hormonal breakouts and I almost feel that it made them worse. I see no real effects as far as it reducing fine lines or anything

[@jenadamsuk]

@@smithereens7105 ok, well I’m guessing your hormones are a strong force! I’d keep going as you don’t know what it might be holding back! For example your outbreaks could be worse without it! Have you look at other ways to address your outbreaks? How balanced are you blood sugars? jenadamsuk.com/face-mapping-what-is-your-skin-telling-you/
