Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

Doesn't work! I used it for over a year and nothing changed. I still have nasty breakouts, more actually and more acne scars. It's a rip off and they're using big time celebrities to trick people into thinking it works.
It's a waste of money !

Waste of money! It's a big hype but does nothing but give people false hopes

Pros:

At first it seemed to work.

Cons:

Dried my skin up and made it very itchy. After I stopped using it my skin got much much worse. Also the company will charge your credit card w/o notice and send you more product even if you only signed up for the trial package!!!!

If I knew then what I know now I would never have used this product! It will make your skin break out more once you stop using it.

None

Cons:

Burned my skin

Do not use without consalting a doctor. I've burned my skin badly. Red spots appeared a week later and now it itches a lot. Do not use!!!!!

Pros:

It worked on reducing the acnes. That was true.But it just let u happy for this several months then horrible thing just starts!!!!

Cons:

I used them for around 3 to 4 months. It did work during the second and the third month. But it dried my skin hella horrible. My face got peeled. So I had to put some lotion on it. Then my skin just felt so oily and kinda liked breaking on drying. Then I stopped to use them. After one week, I went to play sport and sweated a lot. Then I felt my skin so sensitive. When I got home to stand in front of the mirror, my face got 10times worser in one day. I just tell u guys before to buy this products

This product is going to make ur skin super super sensitive. Oh my god. It would work on ur skin in the first two or three months. But after these months the horrible thing just starts. It will make ur acne to be worser 100timez. Now I just wanna destroy this company.

Pros:

Your skin always feels nice.

Cons:

Doesn't clear you up completely.HORRIBLE customer service!

After my experience I would never recommend Proactiv to anyone. You better off going to the dermatologist.

Pros:

NONE! Terrible!!!!

Cons:

worst cleanser EVER made!!!!! i mean, yea it takes away pimples and blackheads for the first week, but after you stop using it just for one day, it makes the acne worse!!!! and Too expencive for a bottle of nothing that helps NO ONE!

I absolutely despise this product, it never actually worked and NEVER will! and also WARNING THAT AFTER YOU PAY FOR PROACTIV, THEY KEEP ON SENDING YOU MONTHLY PRODUCTS AND AUTOMATICLY CHARGING YOU FOR IT!!! this product doesnt just basicly do nothing....... it irritates skin and leaves it dry and guess what?! you see all of those adds on tv and they pay millions of dollars to sell a product to teens like you that doesnt even work! shame on anyone who looks at this and doesn't listen to a word im typing, and shame to those who use proactiv! Thank you very much.....

Pros:

The worst product out their in the market ,
i can't say it did any justice for me.

Cons:

made my face red,dry and irritated .

In reality this product did not work for me, it was a complete waist of time and money. If you really want something that works, try duac topical gel, one of the best products out there.
