Proactiv Solution Reviews

I bought proactive and tried it for atleast 3 months, my acne turned from mild to SEVERE. I was disappointed and will never buy it again. However, I must say everyone's skin is different and causes of breakouts are different. Food does not cause breakouts, and I learned this from many of my dermatologists. THey know your skin better than a product that comes with instructions. After I went to a dermatologist, my skin is getting better, and the breakouts are very very rare. It just takes time.

This product made my skin clear up great but after about 4 months it has been looking like it just stopped working!!!

on the bright side it made the skin on my face look and feel way better. But i reality i believe that in the end it made my acneworse only because it spread down my back after i started using this.

pro active is the best thin thats every happened to me my face was really bad before now it has just cleared up and is really smooth and soft not even 1 bump I LOVE IT thank you so much!!!!

Works perfectly!, dont use to much of it or it wil dry jour skin.
it complety cleared my face after 1 month, i don't have to wear any concealer!

This stuff sux trust me use murad!!! Proactive dosen't stop acne it makes it better for a lil while then you get alot of small whiteheads and it did nothing for blackheads. So please do yourself a favor order murad. And unlike other ppl don't stop using it!!!

teh first time i used it it didnt really work, but i bought it a few months later and my skin is much bettetr...

I used Proactiv and hated it! If you have normal-dry skin then don't even waste your time with Proactiv moisturizer. The SPF in the moisturizer clogged my pores pretty bad. I didn't have acne when I bought this stuff, but I wanted something to help with blackheads. I ended up with more pimples and dry patchy skin. I could see more lines under my eyes while using it. So if you have dryer skin then use a different moisturizer. The toner was horrible for me. In my opinion, toners just strip your skin of nutrients it needs. The cleanser was not too bad, but it was pointless for me to buy the system when I was only going to use one thing. So I went to my doctor and had him give me RX benzoyl peroxide. You have to keep it in the fridge, but it is the best way to go. I also use masks religiously now! It made me break out for a while, but in the end my skin is gorgeous. I recommend using clay masks, especially Lancome's. I also found Olay's cleanser to be wonderful. Best of Luck!

I just started using it a week ago and my face has cleared up some. I get the occasional breaks and the black heads are completley gone:) I do have the red bumps but i noticed that once i started using another moisterizer on top it helped. Good luck!

In guess you could say my skin as a young teenager was flawless. I often recieved comments on how well my skin looked. After my first pregnancy, that all changed. My skin went from flawless to anything but. Acne in all shapes and sizes, some painful cysts, other just the norm, but it was all the same to me. Ugly and quite embarrassing. For a total of 8 years I've dealt with the acne. I started using proactiv about 6 months ago, and let me tell you, it works. I did have my doubts I must say. For the first two months my skin broke out in terrible acne. I thought I was allergic, but apparently my skin became used to it and all is well now. I would recommend this product to anyone . Just stay with it. Don't give up. It has done wonders for me.

I started using ProActiv about one month ago. I had some flareups in the beginning but my skin is 80% better. It can be harsh on the skin so you have to figure out what works best for you, whether it's using it twice a day, once a day or only using one or two of their products at a time. There are some occassions where I use an additional mosturizer on top of the ProActiv lotion. If you use the cleanser only use a pea-sized amount. The key to the cleanser isn't the quantity you use, but how well you massage into you're skin. Don't scrub, just massage it all over your skin for one or two minutes. Sometimes I skip the toner and go staight for the lotion and some days I don't use the system at all. Play with it and find out what works for you. Don't expect miracles in a few days. If you break out in the beginning it's probably because you were going to break out anyway. The red and brown acne scars will take awhile to go away. The kit helps fade them, but it won't make them disappear. ProActiv makes a skin lightning lothion to help with that. Stick with the program and hopefully you'll experience the benefits I did. It's not an exact science so you may have to tweak it to suit your skin sensitivity. Good luck!
