| Pros: | Within Days I noticed a difference. Smoother, less oily face. |
| Cons: | My neck broke out in hives because of the harshness of the peroxide formula. I had to discontinue use. |
| Bottom Line: | If you don't have sensitive skin, give it a whirl. I opted for the clinique skin care line which is not so abbrasive and have been super happy with it. |
| Recommended: | No |
| Usage: | Jackie has used this item for about a week. |

| Pros: | cleared acne, smoothed skin, cheap |
| Cons: | using 3 things. have to use it everyday or it wont work. sometimes repairing lotion makes skin look a little oily. |
| Bottom Line: | i had bad acne and tried everything over the counter and a few prescriptions ..never worked.. the proactiv works!!!... the toner stung a little and if it was used within hours of the repairing mask smelled rotten! - but after a month or so of using it everyone complemented my complection.. looked like i had been air brushed. cleared my acne really fast, and i just love how it makes my skin look and feel. |

| Pros: | For someone who feels they have to scrub the crap out of their skin to get to clean, then it's good, but that's the only good thing about it. |
| Cons: | It worked for like the first three months I used it, then it just seems to stop working. Even sticking with the system it tells you to use doesn't seem to do anything. Can't believe I've wasted my money on this for so long. |
| Bottom Line: | Sucks. |

| Pros: | There was a little improvement for a few months...Then it went to hell. The refining mask is all that worked for me if I left it on for 10 minutes, not the entire night. |
| Cons: | Once you stop using it you get HUGE pimples that stay under the skin and hurt, it dried out my skin even with the moisturizer, it made my face very red and very sensitive. |
| Bottom Line: | It's up to you, I mean it worked great at first but then it didn't. My fiance uses it but only when he has a breakout and it works for him (but he also uses clearasil for men) so I don't know which product it is. But...Yeah, this is entirely up to you if you can afford it, but BEWARE - I canceled my order and they KEPT SENDING ME IT AND BILLING ME. |

| Pros: | None |
| Cons: | expensive and ineffective. if anything, my breakouts got worse. |
| Bottom Line: | Proactive is a waste of money. It did nothing to improve my skin. All I got out of it was bleached pillow cases. Honestly, don't waste your time and money on this scam. |

| Pros: | Smells alright, left my skin feeling smooth |
| Cons: | It just doesn't work for me. It was great for a while, but now, nothing. It is very expensive! |
| Bottom Line: | Give it a shot, there is a money back guarantee. But don't feel desperate and try to stick with it...I did that. |

| Pros: | cleared up most acne. convenient as it gets mailed to you every few months or so. |
| Cons: | i still get horrible deep breakouts once in a while. When i used the program 2 times a day in the winter, caused HORRIBLE flakes and stinging. and not all pimples went away. so flaky and pimply- eww. bleaches towels, bedding even some clothing. |
| Bottom Line: | This worked moderately well for me. CANNOT use it twice a day as recommended, so that could be why i'm not getting the amazing results other people are talking about. Too expensive and stinky! |
| Recommended: | No |
