Hey girls!
I started using Skinlogics Gold and Time To Go with Retinal. I've been using them about 4 days and I'm starting to break out. I love the products and my face is soft. But now I'm zitty. One right above my lip and a few on my forehead.
Suggestions?

Hi Debbie,
I recognize "you" from the Party Plan forum! Welcome!
Just a question: when you choose Skinlogics Gold, did a consultant do a skin analysis on you or did you or she kind of guess which system you should use? It sounds like you could use the skinlogics (not gold) system. My director is in the age range of using Platinum, but says she gets whiteheads so she uses GOld. Just a suggestion. I'm glad you like the feel of your skin, but of course we don't want you to break out! One other thing is that it doe take a good month to really let your skin adjust to the products. However, I don't know if I'd wait a month with break outs. But "they" say, we get a new layer of skin every 28 days, so just another thing to think about. Hopefully others have some more concrete answers, but I just wanted to say hello!

The breakouts could be your skin adjusting to the new products. I'd give it more time!

If you didn't have a skin analysis done, please contact the consultant you purchased the product from. Have one sent to you. The skin analysis card will tell youthe best line to use. It takes a few seconds and is easy to read!
I am in my 40's and still use the Gold Line. Personally, I do not use the Time To Go. My favorite is Rengeration Reprogram! You do not need to use a lot of these products. I would cut back on the amount of moisturizer and Time to Go to see if that improves the break out situation. There is an adjustment period too, so I would cut back on the amount first before I stopped all together. It takes at least 2 weeks to see the results.

Definately give it more time. The same thing happened with me when I started using it (and to my mother)...keep in mind that it's trying to clean out those clogged pores and all of that *gunk* has to go somewhere--it has manifested itself to the surface of the skin...which is a good thing. It won't take long...a little patience...clear/blackhead free skin is worth it!!
