Is skin purging real?

Question

So I started a new skin care regimen a little over a week ago an my skin has been breaking out more than usual. I've been told by a couple people that sometimes your skin gets worse before it gets better...especially after starting new skincare. I can't tell if I'm allergic to the products or if it's just the so-called purging process. I'm still going to continue to use it every day because I spent freaking 66 dollars on it. (Clinique 3-step for combination/oily skin #3 by the way) 
Can anyone shed some light on this?

Answer

Everybody's skin is different, so what works for one person won't necessarily work for another. That said, what I've been told over the years by dermatologists is that most people ought to be much gentler on their skin (which is why derms usually recommend cetaphil over expensive cleansers), while deciphering the internal problems (GI issues, hormonal problems, allergies, etc) that may possibly be contributing to the development of acne in the first place. You can absolutely experience a greater volume in your breakouts while undergoing any kind of health or skincare adjustment--changing your regimen, treating an infection, not getting enough sleep, etc. I think the rule of thumb is usually 2-3 months to determine whether a new skincare product is working or not.

Answer

I work in a spa and in the facial room, your skin is most likely getting rid of toxins. If your skin if blotchy and itchy call your derm, if it's just breaking out don't panic! Just do not pop them unless they are ready! If you pop them all your doing is spreading the toxins around your skin! Hope this helps ?

Answer

Um idk but what I do know is I never put products on my face. AND ive gotten plenty of compliments of having nice skin. SO. . my opinion/advice is not to use anything. Just wash with soap and water. Human's skin wasnt made to put a bunch of chemicals on it.

Answer

Purging is real. Now if you feel like it's an allergic reaction look into it.

Does your daze itch?

If It doesn't clear up after a month maybe switch.
