Pros:

amazing! it works great! my acne cleared right up after TWO days. it only took two days! my skin felt amazingly soft. the next month i thought id try clean and clear acne advantage which turned out to be a horribly stupid idea and my acne came back so now im switching back to proactiv and i cant wait till it comes so my skin can feel amazing again.

Cons:

it doesnt smell as good as clean and clear, but it definitely works better!

this is the best acne treatment that you will find. dont waste your money on anything else. so excited to get my new monthly supply!

Pros:

-Skin Feels Great
-Clears Acne

Cons:

Price

I love this stuff! But it doesn't fit in my budget. I'm on and off of it occasionally, but whenever I use it..it surely works. When I first started, my acne cleared up in a few weeks. If you can afford it,buy it!

Pros:

Got rid of my acne plain and simple. Friends started commenting on how flawless my skin looked. No one had ever said that before! My skin tone and texture was smooth and even.

Cons:

Product will bleach clothes so avoid applying it on your neck. My skin was irritated at first so I took it slow and my skin adapted.

Worth it hands down. I've tried plenty of other acne products, but this system works the best and will get rid of acne.

Pros:

It cleared all of my acne and blemishes and kept it away!

Cons:

The company continued to charge my credit card without sending me the product for two months.

I would definately reccomend trying this product, but be sure to stay on top of your bills and what they charge you!

Pros:

start seeing results immediately

Cons:

pimples come back after you stop using it.
dries out your skin

if you have painful acne and you just dread the thought of looking at yourself in the mirror, proactiv is a lifesaver. in only three days of using it, people were commenting on how much my skin has cleared up, and my family members who have used proactiv in the past, immediately knew what i was using. trust me, if you want clear, beautiful skin, use proactiv. you won't regret it. as for the dry skin, after the first two weeks, it starts to go away. i'm so pleased with this product, i want to share it with everybody !

Pros:

it is amazing it totally vleared my acne and i finally feel free again i dont have to pile on layers of makeup and i still feel comfortable i love pro-active

Cons:

it leaves skin a bit itchy for about 3 hours after use

USE PRO ACTIVE im always getting comments on my skin rather than people always saying wow what makeup do you use. I know people can be very spectacle about products they are putting on their face but honestly just do what I did: order the $20.00 thirty-day trial kit when you get it pick a spot on your body and just try it out if it makes that spot red and gross send it back if it works go ahead. I mean come on $20.00 what were you gonna do take your family out to taco bell. Honestly this stuff won't work for everyone but i think it will work for most also i know a lot of these reviews say the product is bad but that is because it didn't work for those people the people that probably think about it more are the people that it didn't work for and so thats why you see so many bad reviews and btw if pro active was as bad as these people say i don't think it would be the #1 acne treatment in the world so just keep that in mind before you listen to these idiots. thanks for your time bye!!

Pros:

gives your skin a nice glow and pimples and breakouts decrease.
A nice CLEAN feeling after you wash.

Cons:

your face will get addicted to it. Skin may get dry and start to peel.

Proactiv works. I tried not wearing makeup when I started using the product.. and i noticed tremendous changes in my skin in only 2 days! I wouldn't recommend this to anyone who doesn't have acne, it may cause redness and irritation.

Pros:

The only system that has ever worked consistantly. Clears my skin, moisturizes, minimizes pores, and my skin really does "glow".

Cons:

The price can be a bit startling, but I compare it to how much money I've wasted on things that don't work. It is WORTH it.

I love ProActiv, but I know many people who do not agree. The bottom line is you have to find something that works for YOU. I can't use Salicylic Acid and too much benzyol peroxide overdries my skin, but ProActiv only has 2.5% (Clean & Clear is 10%) My skin feels and looks AMAZING while using ProActiv.

Pros:

It cleared up my face. Works better than anything I have tried in the past.

Cons:

only dryness/irritation I show is when I get too close to my eyes. Other than that, not too happy with the price either.

My face looks better than it has since I was 16 years old. It's never had blemish free periods until now. Do I still have breakouts?... rarely, but it quickly clear up, then my face is clear again for months. Oh, my face is ridiculously oily- maybe that's why Proactive doesn't dry out my skin. Oh yeah, I also use more than the recommended amount. Dime size??? yeah right. Maybe dime size per each quadrant of my face. I guess that's why I go thru the bottles so fast and complain about the price! But bottom line is it works for me and I am extremely happy. Wish I had started it sooner.

Pros:

I really like everything about this product it works well. I like the fragrance, and especially the feel of the cleanser, how it exfoliates while cleansing. It's great!!!!!!!

Cons:

i don't know that there are any cons! Maybe that you have to order it and can't just buy it anywhere but it has not been a problem.

You have to use the products for longer than a few weeks to be able to tell a difference. And it will be drying if you don't use a moisturizer, even if you have oily skin. Give it a chance to do it's job and it works wonders, my skin is wonderful after having to kids and trying other products that didn't work!
