Lucasbomb 2 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Hey I have just joined this site! I am using ProActiv 3 step programme, no results in 3 weeks, I have no been moisturizing.. today my Dr gave me a topical solotion dabber to use, now which order should I use all this products?? Thank you very much! The pictures are from just over 3 weeks ago, what kind of acne is that?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hopeful479 2 Share Posted November 13, 2012 I used proactiv and it worked for 3 months and stopped and my skin got worse. I thought the acne-free regimen works more effectively and it's cheaper plus you don't have to wait for it to come in. Are you suppose to combine them all?Oh sorry, I didn't see the bottom portion of your question. They don't look like cystic, maybe papules from what I see. Best of luck!

armadillo 35 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Looks like mild acne to me. Are you still going to be using the Proactiv? This is how you do a skin routine: 1. Cleanser 2. Toner [if you use one] 3. Treatment cream/gel/ointment -s so whatever topical you're prescribed 4. Moisturiser Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lucasbomb 2 Author Share Posted November 13, 2012 Thank you for quick reply! Yes am going to carry on with the Proactiv, what is acne-free regime? Also I drink alcahol quite alot.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hopeful479 2 Share Posted November 13, 2012 yeah I would think that alcohol wouldn't be that beneficial for acne. I know I would flare up every time I drank. I don't drink at all anymore but maybe try scaling back a bit and try to eat as healthy as you can, cutting down on dairy, breads, and sugar. Acne-Free is basically a knockoff to ProActiv but like I said previously, I think it works better. I found it at Target. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
