| Pros | Works good.. |
|---|---|
| Cons | Extremely small bottle I mean they shrunk the stupid thing over the years... and it's just a waste of money |
| Bottom line | Just buy Dans bp way cheaper and you get seriously 12 ounces more for the same price. Proactiv bp is no different from Dans bp it's all just bp....... |

| Pros | I was using the whole proactiv system, which made my skin clearer but really dry and irritated. After I ran out of the cleanser I bought a more gentle one, but kept using the toner and repairing lotion. THAT cleared up my skin completely. I think the cleanser was just too abrasive. You can find just the lotion on ebay or amazon, which brings down the cost considerably. |
|---|---|
| Cons | Order online, can be drying and irritating for some people. |
| Bottom line | Everyone's skin is different, but this is definitely worth a try because of the bezoyl peroxide. For some reason it's really hard to find good bp products, even though it's supposed to be better for people with red, swollen acne, so despite the cons I will stick with this. |

| Pros | Seems to be the perfect amount of BP, as the effect is not too drying. It works to decrease redness over a short-term period of time (I've noticed a reduction in redness within 15 minutes) while also reducing acne size in general (4+ hours). It has helped to keep my acne in check while using other products as "acne killers." |
|---|---|
| Cons | It is a bit expensive, but it lasts pretty long if used properly. My mom, my sister and I go through around a bottle a month, applying in the morning and the evening. Calculates to around $0.30 per day, which is more than fair for what it does. Also, during the summer, bleaching can occur if out in the sun too much. This was pretty funny for me, because I was extremely tan all the time from Tennis and Swimming, but I always managed to have some patches of white. Better than patches of red! :) |
| Bottom line | Without this, I would probably be up a creek. A lot of people complain about the cost of Proactiv versus its ineffectiveness, but this is indubitably the best part of the entire system, especially if rubbed in properly. When used in conjunction with a mild cleanser facewash, the benefits are great. Just be sure to be consistent with this product, as it basically sterilizes your face. |

| Pros | it works sometimes but i have more acne now than i did before. im going back to the cheap stuff i got at walgreens, i think it worked better |
|---|---|
| Cons | im going to continue to use the product because it helps but not as fast as i want it to. some parts of my face have been breaking out way more than it ever did before. |
| Bottom line | it didnt cost me a ton of money so im not sad that i bought it but it did not work the way i wanted it to. the commercials make me think it will work over night, iv been using it for almost 3 months and some days my face is so red and broken out i have to put on a ton of makeup. i still have plenty of the stuff left and im going to use every last drop til its gone but im pretty sure i wont buy any more when its all gone. |

| Pros | Works great with the acne.org regimen! It seems to be doing the job good b/c 100% clear |
|---|---|
| Cons | it is a bit expensive and you have to order it. And if i find it at one of those Proactiv boothes in the mall then it is more expensive. |
| Bottom line | I love it and thinks Dan needs to move this as the recommended product for his regimen. |

| Pros | This really doesn't have a great consistency for the regimen. Easy to spread and apply. |
|---|---|
| Cons | I'd said Proactiv is pricey, but I can't complain about that since I had three months worth given to me by a friend. |
| Bottom line | I think it's better than plain BP if you can get your hands on it alone, since BP is going to be drying at least at first. So it offers a little more moisture, even my oily skin needs the extra moisture. Not to mention, it's oil-free. I'm glad to have three months supply of this stuff so I can use it instead of just plain BP. Of course this lotion is going to be drying as others stated, but that's because it's BP! haha. But like I said, it's nice to have around if you have it because it's a moisturizer too. Although, I cleanse, use Proactiv Repairing Lotion, and I still use a dry skin lotion after this.. and I have EXTREMELY oily skin, but BP dries me out. So never underestimate the power of moisture when you're using BP. |

| Pros | Does work with consistancy. I started breaking out on my forehead pretty bad a while back, proactive got rid of it. I find it works best when you use alot of the repairing lotion. |
|---|---|
| Cons | Dries out your skin. Over priced. |
| Bottom line | Over all this product works well for me. Does work. Makes your skin look way better, evens skin tone, gets rid of acne. I know for some people i know it didnt work as well asit does for me, but it IS worth a try. |

| Pros | I have been using the reparining lotion and the results are OK. No major breakouts for the past two weeks-a big improvement from a new blemish everyday. |
|---|---|
| Cons | It did take a while to start working (almost two months) and I have to be consistent. My skin is very flaky and sensitive now. |
| Bottom line | With the advice from this site, my skin has been better. Another BP product might have the same result. |
