Pros:

Last year I had light to moderate acne, but it still bothered me. I bought thi and it worked amazingly well. I wish this could work as well for me as it did with everyone else.

Cons:

Didn't work as quickly as I hoped it would, but it worked.

There are a lot of people that don't like it, but the commercials say it's for light to moderate acne, and not severe. But I still suggest that everyone with doubts about it working still tries it out.

Pros:

The whole experience was a PRO.. I did not have one negative side effect. It cleared my severe acne in a matter of one week. I would highly recommend Pro Active to anyone having slight to server problems. This also works for body acne… very well.

Cons:

NOT a single one!!!! other than other people putting it down... it gave me my life back..

When I turned 30 I started having serious acne problems for the first time in my life. It covered my entire cheek, nose and chin area. Then it started covering other parts of my body.. My bra line, my panty line.. All I could do was stay in the house and cry. Make up wouldn't cover it up' and neither would a hat. I hated when my husband looked at me' I wouldn't have my picture taken with my kids' every picture my husband took of me I would delete from the camera' I lost one year of memories with my family.. People would say things like 'Oh, Leanna honey what happened to your beautiful face?' What they didn't know is how I would go home and cry my self to sleep every night.. I hated looking at my self in the mirror.. Then one day a friend of mine who had had acne her whole life' was perfect' it was all gone and she told me she used Pro Active' so I called and within one week' my face didn't hurt any more.. By the end of that month I was back to my old self!

Pros:

I love this product! Been using it 4 almost 3 years! I am always getting compliments about how soft and flawless my skin is. This stuff works, You just have to use it right. Have the right steps for your skin, Moisturize, be consistant & give it time

Cons:

The people who say this doesnt work is mainly because they over used and dried themselves out, didnt moisturize or use SPF or gave up to soon. Proactiv is worth the money because it works. Don't order it go to your mall and visit a kiosk there!

Just have common sense. Nothing is going away over night, yeah it can be drying but proactiv has more than just the 3 main steps. Those other steps help the core products work better by preventing the sensitivity. Everyone has different skin so just because it didnt work for someone you know doesnt mean it wont work for you. If you go to your mall they will most likely have a kiosk there that sells it and they are very helpful and can set you up with what you need to get started. If you dont like it they have a 60 day money back guarantee. SO why not! I am just so passionate about this because I used to have bad acne and would never get compliments on my skin and now I do and its wonderful!

Pros:

If you're not satisfied after using the product for 30 days, it's a money back guarantee.

Cons:

For first time users, offer a two for one free gift for ordering their first kit.

I've read some comments where the bottle is too small. It's because you need to use a SMALL AMOUNT of the product. For those with oily skin like me, the oil-free moisturizer is wonderful as well as the refining mask. I use the mask at least twice a week and my face glows. I'm currently on a 12 week (4 month) cycle in getting a new kit and it's work out great. As long as you use the products in the right order and not mix it with other products, you'll see the results. Just stick with it.

Pros:

Great Product, has the right combination of medications in a "skin friendly product." Has cleared up my skin some, but not completely. You can not expect "perfect" skin from any topical treatment.

Cons:

Price is a little extreme. But buying it from The Shopping channel does make it more affordable.

Proactiv really does work. I would recommend it to anyone. I wish I had a kit on my hip that I could give to people that I see are suffering and say "here" try it, it will work. I LOVE PROACTIV! :) Thank you Dr. Fields and Rodan.

It really actually works I've been using it for about 6 months now and I honestly see it working

Cons:

It works It really does, I know a bunch ppeople who use the antibotics and there skin looks horrible,and there in so much pain switching to proactiv reallly helps.

Pros:

This system is for mild/moderate/acute acne.

Heres what you do.... proactiv 3 steps at night and sometimes in the morning. (for guys shaving helps just dont shave over zits)... every morning and every night take several vitamin b5 pills (depending on how oily you skin is), one multivitamin and one 1000mg vitamin C for scars.... if you have mild/moderate acne... you see incredible results within 3 weeks. tops. you have to stick to it... i know its alot of pills and alot of bother but trust me... i had acne for 3 years and nothing worked for me... my skin is finally almost clear. This is aint a sales pitch cracka! this is the real deal... im finally happy.
