Pros:

It really does work

Cons:

It takes a long time to show results...you have to stick to the regimen

I purchased this for my 11yo daughter who has had acne for about one year. I have seen results since she has been using it, but when she misses a day or two it seems the acne looks worse or comes right back. I belive its a good product when followed to the hilt.

Pros:

clears up acne really well but not all of it

Cons:

If you skip a day by accident you will BREAK OUT A LOT!! Once you start you will never be able to STOP.

DON'T BUY IT!!! Once you stop using the product your face breaks out worse than EVER. PLEASE DON'T BUY it unless you are ready to spend the time and money to use it everyday for the rest of your life.

Pros:

I DONT KNOW WHAT U GUYS R TALKING ABOUT!I LOOOOOOOVE proactiv! i didnt dry out my skin, and cleared most of my acne within 2 weeks.
and i adore the refining mask =D

Cons:

the smell is a little strong, but definately worth it =D. and acne increases slightly initially, but clears up fast after that.

i hav moderately severe acne, having anywhere from 10 to 30 pimples on my face @ any 1 time, so while i still hav a few pimples left, its a HUGE IMPROVEMENT from what i looked like before! no joke, while it sounds like it doesnt work 4 everybody, it definately worked 4 me, and u should giv it a try.

Pros:

This seems to be doing the trick...and quite quickly

Cons:

My face is a bit dry but I am hopeful that will calm down by next week.

My acne began 4 years ago, I am 33 years old, and had never before had problems with my skin. My doctor said I had Rosacea and prescribed antibiotics, topical creams and cleansers. Combined they made me sick and my skin itchy and very dry. I took myself off of all those products after 2 years and have tried to manage this terrible skin on my own. I was getting fed up and depressed so I took the plunge and purchased this product. I have only been using it for 2 ½ days and already can see and feel a difference!!! The existing acne is healing, the bumps under the skin are gone and my face feels smooth! The redness is calming and other than the little bit of dryness, I seem to have no side effects ' My face doesn't even itch. I can't believe it''.Thank you!

Pros:

it's working....

Cons:

can't buy in shops, only online, it's not cheap, but i would spend anything to have healthy beautful skin at last

i got my proactiv yesterday, and never would believe in just 24 hours, my skin is getting better, i just believed it would never work, and everyone who talked about it, was an actor. not true, im a normal housewife, aged 31 that still gets acne, at my age i should not be getting spots?, i never had spots at school, i was the girl everyone wanted to be, but now im getting them... and i have tried everything, and proativ was my last try, i really believed it wouldn't work and i would be asking for my money back, in 60 days, i won't be, my skin still has spots, its only been 24 hours so far, but this morning, i woke, to my spots not being so red and big, but to tiny stops thats look like there going, omg, this stuff is great, i have ordered more proactiv items, which i will recieve soon, can't wait. i can't wait to see what my skin looks like in a few months, i can only guess that its gone get better and better...

Pros:

Exfoliates a bit, reduces redness, takes effect quickly.

Cons:

Might stop working for you, a little pricey.

I'm only reviewing the renewing cleanser because I think the other products are a rip off *** I think it's a very decent cleanser and for me I see results about 10 minutes after. It really does take away from redness. It's a good idea to switch on and off with this and another cleanser if it stops working.

Pros:

Clears up acne

Cons:

Time consuming

During the past 4 years, I've been to 3 dermatologist and Proactiv beats all the products they gave me. When used CONSISTENTLY, the system keeps my face clear of acne and has improved the texture of my skin that was damaged by acne scars.

Pros:

Clears up acne fast, leaves face feeling fresh and clean

Cons:

none!

You have to use Proactiv twice a day every single day or you're not going to get any results. If you have stubborn acne like i did you should switch to the extra strength. if you're experiencing dry skin you need to use a little bit more of the 3rd step, or buy one of their moisturizers. The bottles all say that it takes up to 6 months to achieve full results, and they never said that a pimple or two won't pop up once in a while. a dab of the refining mask is great for getting rid of pimples over night! I LOVE THIS STUFF! I once felt very ugly and now i feel and look gorgeous. my face is smooth, and for the first time in my life i have natural, rosy cheeks. THANKS PROACTIV!
