More acne stuff from me! BENZOYL PEROXIDE


I am very thankful for all the encouragement Ive gotten on these forums, especially when I was feeling VERY low a little while back.

Something I dont know if I mentioned in my other posts is that Ive been using benzoyl peroxide for TWO YEARS now, twice a day, as instructed at
http://www.acne.org.
This regimen seemed to help my Acne a lot at first, and they claim on that site your skin cant become immune to BP. But my Acne is as bad as it ever was now.

I basically want OFF this bp crap. Ive been getting a bad feeling in my gut every time I apply it. FOr a long time now {seemed to get worse when I began my Liver Flushing program}, Ive been having some sort of reaction to the BP. My facial skin is dry and irritated and peely all the time {something they claim is supposed to go away after awhile, well it did at first but then it came back}, but more worrysome than that, my neck turns bright red and itches terribly after every time I put it on {almost every time, it goes back and forth to turning red to where you can see the rash to not turning that bright red-but itching terribly either way}. No one on the Acne regimen forums seems to be able to tell me why this is happening. It has gotten a LITTLE better since getting deeper into the flushing regimen, but the reaction is still happening.

I understand that flushing can bring up toxins and thats why my skin has flared so badly despite continual use of the BP. I just get such a worried feeling about how long Ive been putting this stuff on my face. My skin has aged a lot and has a dull, flaky appearance from the bp. I notice my reaction to the bp gets worse around my peroid and during my pre period breakouts.

Is this an allergic reaction to the BP?

Im just really really scared. I am already working on the internal aspects of whats causing my acne {eating healthy, eliminated gluten, working on eliminating other allergens, working on candida and parasites and of course liver flushing} so Im doing all I can in that way. BUt in the meantime I need topical help of some sort that is not poisoning my body further. I have such a bad feeling in my gut about bp and the rash I get on my face scares me.

Why havent I got off the stuff already you are probably asking, and naturally the answer is, Im scared. Im scared of breaking out worse. Its bad now, if it gets even worse without the bp I dont know what Id do. I already feel like a freak in public.

So I need some help, I need to design a gentler, more natural, less toxic topical regimen. I was thinking of getting some neosporin cream and using that on the big, open cysts. I also am going to get some tea tree oil and use that all over my face after washing {I use an organic, natural oatmeal soap, and Im also going to get some asprin so I can try that asprin wash we discussed on here}. I got a baby brush to use for very gentle exfoliation. I want to keep using the jojoba oil Im using now as its probably the only thing in my regimen I feel really helps my skin.

Any other suggestions? Any thoughts are appreciated. I just dont think my skin can take benzoyl peroxide anymore.
