Murad Acne Complex starter kit (Sephora) process qs.?

So I got this Murad Acne Complex kit from Sephora on Sunday. It includes the cleanser (1) Toner (1) Acne spot treatment (2) Exfoliating Acne treatment Gel (2) and the Skin perfecting lotion (3). Those are the steps. According to the labels, this is how my routine goes.

1. Cleanser

2. Toner

3. Exfoliating Acne treatment Gel

4. Acne Spot treatment

5. Skin perfecting lotion

On the little flap at the bottom of the box (includes the same drug facts as on the little bottles themselves. it has the Acne spot treatment before the exfoliating Acne gel. Is this how I should follow the routine. I mean both are step 2, it doesn't say ANYWHERE which one is recommended to put on 1st between those 2 I just mentioned... Help? Or am I doing it right?
No bad reactions ( skin purging) yet. My face's "T zone" is a LITTLE less "oily" too. :) not too many results yet, 24 hrs. have no passed since my last application and my 1st. On to day 2! My acne (combination skin) is not severe. No dryness is a plus! Cetaphil cleanser used to dry my face a bit...

From Chicago - According to research presented during Digestive Disease Week, pollution may be contributing to US liver disease rates. Researchers found that nearly 40% of adults have elevated levels of alanine aminotransferase, an enzyme related to conditions like liver disease. It was then found that higher levels of heavy metals, pesticides and mercury were linked with higher odds of having elevated ALT. From Washington - The FDA has issued a report stating that products containing acetaminophen should carry stronger warning labels. The report cites the dangers of taking multiple products that contain acetaminophen, and ingesting the drug with alcohol. It suggests that patients not take more than one acetaminophen product at a time, and taking more than the recommended dose can cause severe liver damage. And finally, back to Chicago - According to a study presented during Digestive Disease Week, the incidence of Crohn's disease is increasing among adolescents. In a study of 5.8 million residents in northern France, researchers found that from 1988 to 2005 the incidence of Crohn's disease rose from 3.5 to 5.2 cases per 100000 person-years among those under age 20. The disease currently affects about 630000 people in North America. For Insidermedicine in 60, I'm Dr. Susan Sharma.
