Pros:

-Reduces the size of the pimple a little

Cons:

- doesn't get rid of the pimple fast as adevertised
-hard to wash off
- unclear directions

Doesn't work as well as advertised. Unclear directions because the bottle says leave on for 10 minutes then wash off, the commercial has people saying they leave it on overnight.

Pros:

I had a huge pimple on my chin. The first night, I put some toothpaste on it, went to sleep, and woke up with the pimple bigger and redder. The second night, I used the Proactiv Refining Mask. It was completely gone in the morning.

Cons:

It's a little hard to rub off, but just take a shower and it will go away.

You should definitely get the Proactiv Refining Mask. Of all of the products and home remedies I have tried, this is by far the best and fastest working.

Pros:

Refining mask is a great spot treatment overnight or mask.

Cons:

Smells funny but thats ok.

I've had acne since I was 16 years old and now ten years later I finally found something that actually works for me. My skin is sooooo much better than before and the good thing is that you don't even need to use it everyday; it last a long time so you get your money worth. Try this if you haven't yet because I promise you it'll work wonders for your skin! If you can't afford it, try just buying the refining mask which you can find anywhere like [link removed] or [link removed] for about $5-$10 for 2.5oz. :)

Pros:

It actually works. I use this mask in conjunction with the proactiv 3-step routine and it's a life saver. I have tried everything and struggled with chest/back/face acne since I was 12 - this is the only thing that worked. Try it now.

Cons:

It smells not so great, but you get used to it.

Absolutely try this.

Pros:

Zaps pimples pretty fast flatens them out nicely

Cons:

texture isnt that great a little grainy but it works why complain

I Used this product previously and would apply as a mask rather then a spot treatment evens out skin tone and flatens surface and leaves skin smooth and soft can dry it up a bit though but overall i like this product one of the only proactive products i like

Pros:

works very well for a spot treatment, it reduced the size of my pimples. the really difficult pimples that just wouldn't go away went away and stayed away.

Cons:

the smell isn't very appealing the first few uses, the bottle says to only leave on for 10 minutes,commercial says overnight. overnight works, 10 does not. hard to wash off [easier to shower to wash it off so you don't irritate your skin]

a very good product, the best in the kit.
