I put it on at night only...wash my face with a mild soap first (Cetaphil) and I wash it off in the morning. My face is sooo dry then. I know dryness will happen, but it's so dry I have to put a moisturizer on. Is this okay?
Are you supposed to put the cream on when your face is still wet or moist? I find that when I put it on after I wash my face, but hardly dry my face (where it's realy moist), it burns more or I feel that coolness a lot more. If I dry face more, where it's not as wet, I don't feel the effect of the cream/coolness as much. Does leaving your face more wet make it work better?
Also, my skin gets soo dry when I use this. Is it normal for your skin to get so dry? In 3-4 months (when this process is supposed to have wrked) will my skin suddenly just stop being so dry? I've been using the cream almost a month. How will I know when it's okay to stop using it...by when the flakingness stops (and my redness/rosaeca stopped is a clear?)
If anyone could get back to me, I'd appreciate it. Thank you! Laurie

Yes Dryness Happens
My face was unbelievably dry for two weeks. It felt like it was going to crack. I was afraid to smile. I looked awful. They told me to use xfml during the day and I did. It helped a lot.
I am still getting a lot of dryness on my cheeks, chin and around my mouth. It has been 6 weeks. But I can defenitely see progress, so I'm going to follow through with the complete treatment.
I was worried that I would have wrinkles my face was so dry, but I'm not worried about it any more. Face looks better.

Re: Yes Dryness Happens
Thanks for replying. Yeah, my face is not as dry now. I used an exfoliator when it was so dry and that helped. My face is better..although I still see the redness. I'll keep it up and see how it goes.Glaxony wrote:My face was unbelievably dry for two weeks. It felt like it was going to crack. I was afraid to smile. I looked awful.
