| Pros: | Nothing, I don't even like the smell. |
| Cons: | It made my skin itchy, dried it right out, and i broke out more. |
| Bottom Line: | Proavtic is glorified. They make it out to be so much more then it is. When in reality it is just junk. |
| Recommended: | No |

| Pros: | didn't have that much acne, but I did have alot of blackheads on and around my nose. Proactiv definently helped get rid of these. And what little acne i did get around my chin has never returned, since i began using this product. It takes time! |
| Cons: | It can work out expensive if you use all the products that you will need!it can dry your skin out after prolonged use,i found cutting down to once a day usage for the repairing lotion & toner helped stop this,i only used the cleanser & a moisturiser |
| Bottom Line: | I found that proactiv worked the best in clearing away all signs of acne and blackheads that I did suffer from on the odd occasion. It takes time to work its not an overnight cure, I did find that after continued use it did begin to dry my skin a little. I stopped this by cutting down to once a day use for the toner and the repairing lotion, at night rather than in the morning after all I'm not getting dirty whilst I'm sleeping! |
| Recommended: | Yes |

| Pros: | Repairs damaged skin |
| Cons: | Does not in any way prevent breakouts... The repairing lotion only made my acne worse so I actually stopped using that. PRICE |
| Bottom Line: | Give it a try but do not expect amazing results. It is an over priced and over hyped product. If you have very oily skin, I recommend using Clean%Clear Persa Gel instead of the proactiv's repairing lotion. |

| Pros: | It smelled good |
| Cons: | It was horrible. I used it a month and my skin was worse than ever. It hurt, was red, very dry and peeling, and didn't get rid of any acne at all. It just made my skin worse. |
| Bottom Line: | Don't buy it! |

| Pros: | it prevented me from getting breakouts :) but i have some scars so it didnt help those obviously [for scars use Neutrogena's Fight N Fade] |
| Cons: | its not totally consistent...you might have to take a little break off of it here and there. but it depends on your skin type. i guess mines the one it usually works for. but its really expensive |
| Bottom Line: | try it out! dont expect magic happening overnight though...you have to stick with it for about 6 weeks. |
| Recommended: | Yes |

| Pros: | it works well for me at first...my skin actually looks glowing. |
| Cons: | once you think its working its stops. i now have little pimples along the sides of forehead, cheeks, and forehead. everywhere, which btw i never broke out badly in those areas before. so i guess my skin became immune to this product. |
| Bottom Line: | i really it would work for me, cause i wasted so much money on it. do't know what i will use now. my skin feels very dry now, and its not even winter. |

| Pros: | Every now and then it will have a miraculous, breakthrough, and my skin will be clear for a few days. |
| Cons: | Other than that, it had no effect. If anything, my skin seems to be getting worse. I used to only get acne on my forehead, but now it's showing up on my cheeks, and under my nose. It didn't say which order to use the "daily oil control" in, either. |
| Bottom Line: | It's a suckish product. Don't waste your time. |
| Recommended: | No |

| Pros: | I have only had this product for about a day or two, and I like it so far. It makes my skin feel clean and there were some results after just a few hours! |
| Cons: | It does sting a little, but other than that, it works pretty well. |
| Bottom Line: | Give it a try. It depends on what kind of skin you have. I've had it for a day, and I've seen results. So far, it's a good product, but we'll see what happens. It works way better if you buy some of the extra products, like the oil blotting pads, concealer, and refining mask, which means you have to pay a lot more $$$, but they work like a charm. |
| Recommended: | Yes |
| Usage: | Jessica has used this item for a day or two. |
