I have been following Dr.Baumann's regime for about a month and trying to identify which cleanser/moisturiser work best for me. I started with Neutrogena's Extra Gentle Cleanser and Lumene's Sensitive Skin moisturiser (I have had bad reactions to sunscreen in the past so am waiting before exploring those).

The biggest result so far has been from ditching toner, my skin has really become less dry but my breakouts have not gotten any better and I've noticed much larger pores and blackheads forming. I'm concerned my cleanser is just not cleansing enough. I purchased some Cera Ve cleanser today and my skin feels wonderfully smooth and soft after using that and the Lumene together, so I'm hopeful.

So basically, I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced a blackhead breakout? I have never suffered from this before, just pimples. Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
