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.

None.

Pros:

The cleansing mask is the only product that is worth the money even though it smells like sulfur and leaves your skin pretty dry. It is a good quick fix if you are needing polished skin asap.

Cons:

The Proactive system makes you look about ten years older than you really are. It dries out your skin terribly and leaves your skin red and dull. It also causes my acne scars, which are usually unnoticeable, to be dark red and irratated.

I would not recommend this product. When I get any of their products as a gift, I give it to my mother who does have a lot of faith in Proactive. I guess you have to try it for yourself; but as for me, I am sticking with Aveeno.

Pros:

I saw immediate results after I started to use it. My face was so covered with blemishes that by the second day, they started to disappear.

Cons:

Nothing to report at this time

This stuff is worth it if you have acne that you just can't get rid of on your own. Totally recommended and I ensure that it will work.

Pros:

cleared my skin up. Toner is refreshing.

Cons:

some areas peel (nose, t-zone)

first thing that has worked for me. i now get complimented on my skin, it feels great. i do not use the moisturizer every day though, nor do i use the mask. Just have to find a routine that works for you. I look forward to washing my face twice a day because it makes me skin feel so soft. Also took a little while to work. Id say I didnt have really good until about two months of usage, so dont give up on it right away if you dont see results.

Pros:

It works. Cleared up my acne almost immediately.

Cons:

It is expensive. And can be a hassle to buy, as it's not available at drugstores.

I really do swear by this stuff. I admit, I am not always consistent with the "program," but it still works for me!! And, if you have spots/scars from old pimples, try the skin lightening lotion. After using it for a just a couple weeks, I can almost go with no makeup, my skin tone is so even.

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.

Pros:

Cleared up my acne

Cons:

Have to use product twice a day or you might see flare ups.

If you use proactiv correctly, and stick with it you will see results. For most people it take a good 2 months to see improvements, one month is not enough. Also, you might not be 100% clear in 2 months, but should see some improvement. The longer you use to product the more you will see the results. Proactiv is sold in most malls, talk to the people there because they can tell you why you might not be seeing results. Keep using!! Awesome product!!

It makes it worse before it makes it better. it makes ur skin flakey and dry and uncomfortable.
