Pros:

None.

Cons:

You can use over the counter products.

This is a big scam. Do not send your credit card number. They will keep charging you and the price is only an initial price. I was disappointed in how it works and the fact that it is a big scam.

Pros:

It leaves your skin soft
It will clear up dark acne scars
It will clear up acne instantly

Cons:

Dry feeling
burning sensation if you have a cut or something

This is an amazing product for those who have moderate acne, but also oily skin.Not for those who have dry skin because it can dry it up more. but if you have dry skin and acne as well, then give Proactiv a try:) Good Luck, i am in love with my results in just 10 days already!

Pros:

*Got rid of the red bumps and stuff on my face.
*Works fast
*Easy

Cons:

*Really drying
*Caused a lot of pain after a while
*Caused redness, puffiness, and burning

It worked really, but was way too harsh for my skin. I do admit that I have very pale and sensitive skin, and I expected some burning or something, but it was really out of the line. I do not recommend for those like me who need effective, gentle cleansers.

Pros:

Does help clear for some time. Leaves skin soft. The mask that comes with it minimized my pores.

Cons:

It leaves skin uber dry

Makes it really red

Burning sensation all over face

Created cystic acne

WAY too expensive for such teeny bottles

The polyethylene beads were far too rough

I didn't feel like my skin was truly clean

VERY bad customer service

I have been using it for quite a while, and I did see SOME results. The bumps on my forehead and chin were nearly gone. HOWEVER, it left my skin feeling burned, red (my cheeks looked like cherry tomatoes) I had to stop it for a little bit because I had gotten a mild cold sore around my mouth (painful and icky) and when I went back on it my face COMPLETELY broke out again. I got the bumps back on my chin and forehead AND I started to get cystic acne on my chin area (which I had NEVER EVER had in my all of my 18 years of living!). In addition, my cold sore acted up again after it was almost completely gone. The bottles (cleanser and toner) were the size of a finger and a half (index) and the treatment was the size of my finger. The toner (which is completely unnecessary for acne) burned up my skin. I'm never going back to it. They just sent me another one today, took $30 from my account, and I had no idea you had to cancel. I hate them very much. NEVER AGAIN. It may work for some, but sadly I am not one of them. However, the refining mask I did like. It minimized pores. But that's all.

Pros:

it does work it cleared up acne within days and it made my skin glow

Cons:

price and customer service

the customer service is horrible when the girl asked me did i want to upgrade my order to 3 months she didn't tell me that the price would increase so that pissed me off when i called to cancel my automatic shipping and they didn't even tell me what days it would be drafted out of my account so i just canceled the account and i called CS and they did not help me out at all really and told me i would have to pay the remaining balance when i had no knowledge of the price increase so for now on i will just travel to a kiosk to get my product because it is a great product and it has been much success for me

Pros:

Nice system and bag to keep it in

Proactiv broke my face out like I was a 13 year old girl. I had horrible bumps for the 3 months that I used this product.

Pros:

None

Cons:

Alot. It took about 4 days to come in the mail, which wasnt too bad but when it got it they were these really tiny bottles. Then i used it for a week and it was the WORST thing ive ever used!!! It made me breakout worse then ive ever broken out!!

It was the worst $20s i EVER spent!!!! DONT get it, it made me breakout WAY more then i have ever!! SAVE YOURSELF and your money and get somthing else!!! You wont regret it! (just so you know i wouldnt have even given that 1 rating but it was required.) it was just AWEFUL! DONT BUY IT!

Pros:

None

Cons:

Horrible customer service!

The customer service individual that worked with me was very rude. I was promised a 60 day money back guarantee and I never received it. Then I called back in and said that I was too late for the money back guarantee. Plus he treated me very very poorly. I work in customer service myself and I know to never treat a customer the way he treated me. I am very upset and would never recommend proactive to anyone!

Pros:

At first it looks like it works.
Makes your skin soft at first and shrinks pores.

Cons:

Makes your skin TERRIBLY dry.
Skin will start getting itchy, red, and peel

Ok, the first day I used it, it was amazing! It shrank my pores, and my skin was looking great. On about the third day, I started noticing red, itchy dryness on my skin, I thought it might be okay if I just used it less often and used the moisturizer..sadly mistaken. My whole face is all peely and gross. I'm very unhappy and disaapointed with this product. :( This doesn't mean it won't work on your skin, but it definitely did not work on mine..
