Skin too dry?
It’s summer, and especially if you’re spending time outdoors, the last thing you need is dry skin. I’ve recently heard from a few customers who were having this exact problem, and luckily the solution is pretty simple.
Vitamin B5 acne treatment works by enhancing the rate at which your body metabolizes skin oil. Unlike other treatments that target oil, B5 usually does not result in dry skin. The reason for this is because, while B5 gives your body more of the “fuel” it uses to metabolize sebum, your body still only uses as much as it needs. Generally once your skin is clear, your body will either eliminate the excess coenzyme-A or use it for something else. However, not everyone’s body regulates itself properly. If you’re finding that taking B5 regularly is causing dry and flaky skin, the simple answer is to decrease your dosage incrementally.
Now obviously you don’t want to, and shouldn’t have to, go back to suffering with acne. But neither should you have to make a trade-off and deal with dry skin instead. If you are experiencing dry skin after using B5, it’s basically because vitamin B5 acne treatment is working *too* well. You’re probably among those who are very reactive to the introduction of B5, and thus you probably need less than the average user. This is good news for you, since it will save you money and perhaps make your daily regimen even easier.
For best results, keep changes in your dosage gradual. Don’t decrease your dosage drastically overnight, or you may end up with a new breakout. Play it safe and decrease by one tablet for a week, then try another, etc., until you find your safety zone. Clear skin shouldn’t have to come with any negative side effects.
