Pros:

-Cleared Skin IMMEDIATELY

-Gave Skin a nice glow

Cons:

-Stopped working after about 6-8 weeks

-Pimples took a lot longer to go away when using this product

-Made skin more oily (even though I have naturally oily skin as it is!

I ordered this on Ebay to avoid the sign-up/refill hassle. I figured if it worked for me, i'd be glad to sign up for it. As soon as I started using it, it was like a miracle, my skin looked amazing and I felt great about myself! After about 3-4 weeks of using it religiously, I started noticing a pimple here and a pimple there, and by the 7th week or so, my skin was back to the way it was unfortunately. After looking at my face on the 8th week and having about 5 or 6 big pimples on my face, I figured it stopped working. So in conclusion, this product doesn't completely clear your skin, but it will help control your breakouts to a fault,

Pros:

It lasted a few months. The scrub was nice, left skin feeling refined.

Cons:

Unfortunately this didn't help me at all. I spent 3 months in the USA and seen the adds all over TV so when came home I purchased. I was so dissapointed. It didn't work for me at all. I used it twice a day morning and before I went to bed.

It could just be my bad luck but didn't work for me at all.

It was a couple years ago, I just wanted clear skin. So I got my mom to order me proactiv, i've seen very good reviews on tv, all these celebrites so i thought it might be something that would work for me. ----It didnt do anything. I dont like this product, it was harsh and it hurt but didnt do anything

Pros:

Absolutley fabolous

Cons:

Can be a little drying but with the green tea moisturizer it is quickly resolved

Love it!! I've seen other comments and well not everyone is going to agree with each other. Most people don't like it because they are using it incorrectly. Dime size amounts twice a day is how it is suppose to be used. Many people over use leading to dryness or irritation. Best advice is you don't know til you try it.

Didn't work for me. It didn't cause breakouts, but didn't help them. I have oily skin, too.Probably works on very light acne.

Pros:

helped acne a little. face cleared up some

Cons:

dried skin out
didn't clear up all of skin
did nothing on blackheads
a hassle to do all three steps twice a day

i recommend it if you have light acne, but if moderate or worse don't get it. it will help a little bit but not enough.

Pros:

Gets rid of major blemishes and reduces redness

Everyone always says proactiv is so bad it never works but it works for me. I bought it a week ago and my major bumps are gone I still have a flew blemishes but there's no redness and it leaves my skin feeling clean. The reaso proactiv doesn't work for some people is all dependent on what kind of skin you have. I have normal skin and I think it works for oily skin but if you have dry skin I don't recommend using it. And buy the refining mask and I Spread a thin layer of it all over my chin and my forehead and I Leave it overnight and my skin isn't dry in the morning.

Pros:

works quickly
smells good
prevents break outs

Cons:

Burns eyes
Drying

This product is drying, but if you use the proactiv moisturizer, your skin will be fine. I hear there are problems with ordering online, so I suggest you ind a stand that sells it. I was concerned with using the kiosk because it could steal credit information.

Pros:

Not sure it works, since the face looks the same

Cons:

The company is not good, since they keep sending product and charge your credit card

DO NOT BUY IN SUMMER, SINCE THEY USE REGULAR SHIPPING AND THE PRODUCT GETS OVER-HEATED DURING MAILING AND DELIVERING!!!
