| Pros | Good value. |
|---|---|
| Cons | Makes you BREAK OUT. Does not clear skin. Drying. |
| Bottom line | Don't try this product. I ignored the bad reviews because, of course, I was desperate, and I thought, how could this be so popular if it didn't work for some people? I bought the started kit and used the program faithfully. I could only last three weeks. It made me break out VERY badly. Amazing-- because I was already breaking out pretty badly before. Normally I have more cystic acne, but this made the cysts worse and gave me "normal" acne all over my face. It does not even make sense that this would be a "purge" because the cleanser I have been using for the past few years is also salicylic-acid based. I think breakouts might come from the treatment gel which has glycolic acid. Glycolic acid can "spread" breakouts. I recommend saving your face four weeks of misery. Even the other products are totally worthless-- the moisturizer feels dry. The spot treatment is crap. |

| Pros | *Great moisturizer *feels good *doesn't bleach clothing and pillowcases. |
|---|---|
| Cons | *Brought me from mild acne with occasional cysts (maybe a few a month) to moderately severe acne all over my chin and jawline. *Lots of scarring. *Tons of clogged pores/whiteheads that turned into cysts! *Doesn't clear acne. *EXPENSIVE. *They seem to have only refunded 1 of my orders instead of 2 (I'm still looking into this matter though) |
| Bottom line | This kit is expensive and ruined my skin. Thanks Dr. Murad! This seemed great for a few days, I guess until the bacteria in my skin started multiplying. Dan's right, you really need the BP to keep skin clear, (even if it does bleach everything!) I started getting more and more cysts that just wouldn't clear. I used the mask and everything else in the kit.. I read in their catologue that buying the poor refining cleanser and the mask would give me a boost (another $60), but I just kept getting worse! Honestly, I have never really looked like I had acne, (easily hidden with makeup, 1 cyst might show) now I look awful! I have well over thirty new scars. My confidence seriously plummeted. I stayed with it for over a month, because they said the initial breakout would subside, but it just never did :( I went to the derm. to get some stronger meds to recover, but the antibiotics made me sick, and the topical were ineffective and really irritating. So I have reluctantly come crawling back to Proactiv. I never should have quit. It never made my skin flawless, but it was certainly better than it is now! I've been using it for a few weeks now. All the small bumps are gone from my forehead! Nose, cheeks, and chin are clear too! YAY! Just waiting for my jawline to clear up. It actually looks better too. I'm hoping some Alpha Hydrox will help. I can already tell some of the marks are fading and the cysts have reduced to normal sized pimples. If you are already using BP on your skin, I would not quit and try this product. If you only use salicylic acid, you would probably be fine. Be careful with your skin! I quit using the kit in May and now its July and I'm still trying to reverse the damage. |

| Pros | None |
|---|---|
| Cons | Irritated my skin broke out with a rash Worst pimples ever |
| Bottom line | It was good for the first week. It made my skin break out so bad that I am embarrassed to show my face in public. I used it for 3 weeks and it gave me the worst acne I have ever had in my life. I sent it back a week ago and my face is still a mess. If you buy this you will just get pimples in a bottle. Worst product ever! |

| Pros | Available in stores No benzoyl peroxide Most products in the kit last a long time |
|---|---|
| Cons | Doesn't work Somewhat expensive Some of the products smell bad |
| Bottom line | I have tried many acne products with little success. What attracted me to this product was its availability in stores (vs. having to buy online) and the fact that it doesn't contain benzoyl peroxide (therefore doesn't bleach my pillow cases and towels). The product did not work for me. I had moderate acne before starting the kit and now have worse acne than when I started. The spot treatment smells bad and the tube ran out after a couple of weeks. The other products have lasted me several months and I still have not run out; however, I am discontinuing use because of the poor results. This product may work for others but it did not work for me. |

| Pros | None |
|---|---|
| Cons | Everything. |
| Bottom line | This is a terrible product. The slippery infomercials really sucked me in, and I d not think Dr. Murad is the doctor presented in the infomercial. The day cream had freaking SPARKLES in it (they obviously don't think men need or want the products) and the spot treatment gave me MORE zits. S |

| Pros | NONE |
|---|---|
| Cons | THIS PRODUCT SUCKS. IT MAKES YOU BREK OUT MORE THEN WHAT YOU HAD EFORE YOU USED IT |
| Bottom line | I had perfectly clear skin before using this thanks to kate somervilles acne solution. I switched to this to try a cheaper soultion. DO NOT try this product. It keeps your skin clear for like the first few weeks but then you breakout like crazy! I've never broke out so much. I counted at least 20 pimples with new ones everyday. Before I would get maybe like 2 a month! DO NOT TRY IT. Not worth the risk. |
