Curology actually made my breakouts worse. I've always struggled with acne but just the occasional breakout here and there a few pimples. Now I have tons of clogged pores, whiteheads, and dry skin. Every time I asked about the breakouts they'd say my skin was purging. She said purging is normal for 6-8 weeks but I've been using curology for 3 months. Then she recommended a soap that's not even associated with curology! I believe this also again made me breakouts worse. I've now made an appointment with a dermatologist in person. That's what I've should've done to begin with. Awful!
