Hi Kaching,
I wouldn't say your condition is normal but it is common for people to "break out" while doing a cleanse. My guess is that your colon is not functioning efficiently. This could explain why your skin breaks out each time you detoxify.
When starting a cleanse ALWAYS begin with the colon. If you detoxify the liver before the colon you are asking for all kinds of problems including naseau, dizziness, fatigue, dry skin, rash, pimples etc..
The colon must be clean and healthy to support the other organs. If the colon is clogged, the released toxins will try to find another exit. The skin is the largest organ of the human body and is definitely a part of the detoxification system. People often overlook the skin when cleansing and I feel this is a mistake.
I think your pimples are a product of the cleanse and a sign that your body has more toxins than it knows what to do with. My advise, find a company that sells a complete, whole body cleansing system that either includes detoxifying bath salts or offers them separately. If you can't find bath salts or don't want to spend the money you could sit in a sauna or steam room for 15 - 20 minutes a few times a week and sweat the toxins out.
I really hope this helps and I'm pretty sure it will.
Keep me posted on your progress.
Namaste,
Ask Kelley
