Day 7
I'm apply C2 to the whole face twice a day. Peeling is pretty much over, there's still flaking especially when apply C2. My face is still slightly red, but it's not the "OMG what have you done" red. It's more like I have a slight sunburn. It was good enough for me to go shopping without feeling to self conscious. Brown spots continue to fade and the overall complexion looks pretty good. There's a couple big brown spots that's still there though it's decreasing in size and intensity. Hopefully they will fade some more over time. I'm changing my rating on this Cosmelan from "Not Sure" to "Worth it". Hopefully the brown spots don't return, but for now I believe it was well worth all the trouble. Cosmelan does require a lot of self maintenance and commitment so be sure you can spend the time before you try this. I recommend taking a week off from work. I hear there's no "downtime", but I guess it depends on your definition of downtime. You aren't stuck on a sick bed so I guess there's no downtime. But my definition of downtime is whether you can go out in public and not scare the kids. By the definition of being socially acceptable, I'd say take a week off.
Day 6
My face is less red today, but still peeling. Most of the peeling was done towards the end of the day with some redness remaining. In the morning I applied C2 only to a couple brown spots, at night I applied C2 to the entire face. Things are looking up, most of the minor brown spots have vanished. The remaining brown spots are fading leaving behind a youthful complexion. Pore size on my nose have improved as well.
Day 5
I woke up feeling pretty good, my face was a little red but not too bad. I hopped on the treadmill for the first time since getting Cosmelan. Boy, I don't know if it was the run or just coincidence, but my face turned bright red, I even skipped c2 this morning. By noon, my face was an angry red and clearly headed for a second peeling. I hid out at home again, at night I applied c2 only on a couple big brown spots. So much for seeing daylight today.
