How do I get facial redness/irritation from Persagel 10 to go away before Saturday?

[RaysGirl021209]

I think Persagel10 is making my face red. UGH. It doesn't hurt but still. It's red and I don't want to irritate it more by using makeup. Stridex is great though 2% alcohol free is love! <3

It might just be a weekend where all I wear is mascara and lipgloss, if that. Boyfriend says I'm beautiful no matter what!

I also used makeup today for a interview and then removed it with Garnier's Oil Free wipes, and I was red after that. So I'm afraid to use face makeup. My skin has never been like this before!

Should I even use blush right now or concealer? Boyfriend is spending Saturday and Sunday with me. Will the redness be gone by then? I hope so. :/ How can I get the redness to go away? Should I even use makeup this weekend or before this weekend?

Summertime screws with my skin too much. Throughout the year, I'm normally clear except for hormonal breakouts. I have oily skin.

I've been using Persagel10 since June and it's just now doing this to me.

Skinboard on a website said I'm overdrying my skin, I'm using Biore's Blemish Fighting Ice Cleanser, then Stridex Maximum Alcohol Free Pads, then Persagel 10, then I moisturize with Garnier's Moisture Rescue Gel-Cream and at night I mix my moisturizer with Jojoba Oil.

My morning routine is the same without the Persagel 10 and Jojoba Oil.

Have you tried the oil cleansing method to remove make up? Don't be afraid, it doesn't make you oily-it's a very gentle, non stripping way to take off make up and the day's dirt and grime. Because it's not stripping your facial moisture your sebum glands don't have to crank into over drive to produce more oil. At first I thought it was weird too. Now I love it! (I use Shu Umera AO oil, and Clarins gel oil)

If you are using a harsh, stripping cleanser and an acne treatment perhaps the combination is too much?
