| Pros: | Smell was nice |

It made my skin REALLY dry and itchy |
| Bottom Line: | It works for some people but not for everyone. |
| Recommended: | No |
| Usage: | Emily has used this item for a few months. |
| Price Paid: | 40.00 |

| Pros: | smells nice |
| Cons: | cost too much, made skin dry, did not work |
| Bottom Line: | I've been using Proactiv for the last 3 months. The first month I used it it totally cleared up my face. It was smooth and clear, I loved it. After that I started breaking out in places I didn't break out before. Now I have more acne than when I started and it's not clearing up at all. I cancelled my memebership and I'll never use it again. |

| Pros: | Cleans dirt off your face |
| Cons: | Costs a lot, doesn't remove acne, dries out skin too much for 15mins after use, then leaves skin crying like a battered rape victim. |
| Bottom Line: | No good, no good at all for acne. Go see a Dermatologist. |

| Pros: | The chick that sold em to me was hot? |
| Cons: | Crap stuff. For starters every step of this "solution" can be bought individually at the pharmacist at a much cheaper price. Two, did not work and made everything worse. Skin peeling / red sore raw skin / more lesions. |
| Bottom Line: | Sh*thouseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee |

| Pros: | Potentially dries out existing inflamed acne. |
| Cons: | Expensive, over dries, harsh and irritates and strips the skin. Also makes you more oily as a result of the dryness. |
| Bottom Line: | The worst choice I've ever made for my skin. I still have marks left from the dryness it caused. It dried me out so much that it caused scars. It did a decent job of getting rid of existing acne but it never prevented new acne from forming. |
| Recommended: | No |
