K, Ohio Nov 8th, 2009 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: None Cons: Dried my face so badly I could scrape the skin off. I'm not kidding. Way too harsh! Bottom Line: I used this product just the way it was suppose to be used and it was simply too harsh on my face. Too pricey, too harsh, not worth the effort. Recommended: No Usage: K has used this item for a few months. Price Paid: 30.00 Acne severity: moderate Was this comment helpful? (Yes) (No) (Report as inappropriate)

John Smith, New York, NY Nov 7th, 2009 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: This product works whenever you first get it, which is why proactiv offers a 60 day money back guarantee. It is also very easy to get out of the vending machines. Cons: After a while it stops working and leaves all kinds of acne on your skin, it irritates my skins, my skin is always red when i use proactiv. Bottom Line: Proactiv works at first, but in the end it does not. Recommended: No Price Paid: 50.00 Acne severity: moderately severe Was this comment helpful? (Yes) (No) (Report as inappropriate)

meghan, WA Nov 7th, 2009 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: it does work for me i had severe acne and now evryone say my face looks way better than i used to Cons: way too much expensive hard for a student like me to afford often, customer service is horrible, dry out the skin, smell bad, works for acne but leaves a lot of scar. Bottom Line: i've been using this product for 1 year and glad that it worked but too much money for me now i just switch to another one that my dermatologist recommend its really really gentle for sensitive for skin you can feel it when you put it on your face think you guys with less money should try it it called Cerave you can purchased it at any local drugstore like Rite Aid. anyway if you use Proactiv definitely pair it with seperate moisturizer if you dont want your skin flake out. Recommended: Yes Usage: meghan has used this item for about a year. Price Paid: 250.00 Acne severity: moderately severe Was this comment helpful? (Yes) (No) (Report as inappropriate)

Proactive, USA Nov 7th, 2009 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: Clean smell, works if/when your consistant, works very well with oily skin. It lasts about a month and half, maybe longer it just depends, if you don't waste it. Cons: You have to be consistant with it. ( Thats not really a bad thing, but some people have trouble with that. ) It's exspensive but lasts if you don't waste it. Bottom Line: Its Amazing. Recommended: Yes Usage: Proactive has used this item for about a year. Acne severity: light Was this comment helpful? (Yes) (No) (Report as inappropriate)

MY, San Francisco, CA Nov 5th, 2009 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: none Cons: expensive for what it is. it doesn't work for spotty pimples Bottom Line: it is the same thing you can get for a fraction of the price at drug stores. My dermatologist cousin told me the main ingredient is Benzyol Peroxide, which is something you can easily purchase anywyere for cheap with the same effect. Furthermore, you end up with tons of cream and not enough toner. They send you a set every month, which is too much to begin with, and totally annoying when you have to stop the order cause you ended up with 3 sets you haven't even opened yet.

Anonymous, Denver, CO. Nov 4th, 2009 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: Product does work..... Cons: If you can wait 2-3 weeks after they've billed you. Don't even think about calling 'customer service' about your bill, they'll chew you up and spit you out leaving you feeling like a complete idiot! (She even claimed I couldn't read)..... Bottom Line: After the first billing of the 29.95 for the kit plus 2 "free bonus gifts", I was billed an additional 29.95, (I assumed this was for the following shipment) A month later I was billed an additional 37.50. To get to the bottom of all the billing and NOT receiving any products I called "Customer Service", after 10min of dealing with their horrible automated directory I finally got someone on the phone, she told me that the 2 "free bonus gifts" is actually a 5 piece kit that comes to about 70 bucks a month! (No wonder 'B' list actors and 'D' list musicians support this product, they can't afford it on their own) The price doesn't bother me, it was how RUDE their "customer service" is... and they'll bill your account whenever they choose....

Mallerie, USA Nov 3rd, 2009 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: Everything! Cons: None! Bottom Line: I have used Proactiv for several years now, I just recently switched to a cheaper over the counter face wash to try and save money, and I completely regret it. Even after less than a month, I started breaking out. Proactiv is worth the price. I bought some more today and already after one wash my face feels wonderful again. I would recommend this to anyone, I will never use anything else ever again! Recommended: Yes Price Paid: 50.00 Acne severity: moderate Was this comment helpful? (Yes) (No) (Report as inappropriate)

emily, australia Nov 2nd, 2009 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: the packs that you can get, its good to pick which one suits you. and which you can afford. bought mine at a kiosk, good costermer service. smells pretty good, smells like sunscreen to me. Cons: takes a while to see results at least a week or two. i get a burning sensation when i use the toner/lotion, and skin turns red and itchy in some paces, (im not allergic tho) Bottom Line: goood product if nothing is working to get rid of your acne its a bit expensive for thos with not alot if money. tip; some people use the lotion (number 3 bottle in the 3 step system) as a mousturizer when its actualy not. in the basic pack it does not come with a mousturizer so i would recomend going up to a pack that does or buy a mouturizer because proactive might and probably will dry out your skin. Recommended: Yes Usage: emily has used this item for about a week. Price Paid: 123.00 Acne severity: moderately severe Was this comment helpful? (Yes) (No) (Report as inappropriate)

NH, Portland, OR Nov 2nd, 2009 How well it works Agreeability Affordability

Pros: NONE! Starts to work then just dries the crap out of your face. Cons: Customer service is HORRIBLE, and the WORST reps I have ever spoken to in taking care of an issue. I woudn't recommend this to anyone, if you want it buy it at the mall, and forget the ordering service, THEY SUCK. Bottom Line: Bottom line, it takes like 2-3 to ship to you, then if you dont receive it, they wont expedite or rush you another one, you have to wait again for 2-3 weeks. So in not receiving my order and asking them to cancel my account and credit my account for the order I did NOT receive, they said they would send out this so called "affidavit" in order for them to issue my credit. Well I dont know if they are headquartered in SYBERIA, but the form itself takes 2-3 weeks for delivery (its a piece of paper for crying out loud). So called in after the time frame of NOT recieving my "affidavit" and the second rep said "there is nothing here that they ever issued it out" so she issues it out, wait another 2-3 weeks still not receiving it and call back and ask to speak to a MANAGER, well you can't speak to a manager, you can speak directly to billing, you have to tell them so they can write it down and NOT DO SH*T ABOUT IT. If they were accredited you'd see a BBB complaint!!! Usage: NH has used this item for a few months. Price Paid: 45.00 Acne severity: very light Was this comment helpful?
