Pros:

Initially reduces new blemishes.

Cons:

Stops working after a very short while. Over dries skin and lends so significant increase in oil production.

This stuff is crap. It's over-priced, it only works (and not very well at that) for the first few weeks. It made my skin WAY oilier. Since I've stopped using it and my skin oil has gone back down to normal production levels. I'm not going to waste my money on this garbage anymore. The only Proactive product I like are the make-up removing cloths. They're actually gentle and very effective. I use these, and a green tea gel cleanser along with a green tea moisturizer. I'm far better off now.

Pros:

Works well for the first year or so.

Cons:

Rough on skin, drying, time consuming, and completely STOPS working after using it for a certain amount of time. Expensive.

This product worked well and I had flawless skin for about one year. Then suddenly I started breaking out along my chin, cheek, forehead, and nose. In cysts. The price is way too high for the amount of medication you get. Proactiv is a scam, bottom line.

Pros:

Makes me feel better that i'm cleaning my skin

Cons:

My face still gets oily and did not clear my face. I followed the instructions to the T and it still didn't work.

Use it only if you haven't tried anything else and make sure you get a good deal because it is expensive.

Pros:

It made me believe that celebrities get paid to say anything!

Cons:

Dried out my skin, but I still had acne. Weird! The more I used it my skin started to get a rash from it.

Once I hit puberty my body said FU and my face looked like a PIZZA! YUCK! My parents took me to see a dermatologist and when that got expensive we bought Pro Active off QVC before it got all popular. I used the whole product and it sucked a$$! It dried out my face and I still had acne. About a week into it, my face started to get a rash. I heard an ad on the radio for Loma Lux Acne. I had my mom buy it for me and it really worked! I saw results in days! I used it that whole summer and when I started 7th grade no one recognized me! ILOVE LOVE LOVE this product! Loma Lux is worth the money. I am 25 now and I have great skin!

Pros:

i really like proactiv, it has always worked with me, and if you stay with it, 2-3 times a day, your skin will look amazing. i've never had problems with clothes, or the color in them...that is a lie.

Cons:

all if it works really well, i have no complaints except if you lick your fingers after you wash your face, its a horrible taste...do not attemp.

awesome product, does wonders for a man.

Pros:

Smoother skin...makes acne go away faster

Cons:

none for me so far

I LOVE Proactive!!! My sister gave me what she had left of hers because I was breaking out REALLY bad. I was skeptical but I tried it...My skin feels so smooth and my acne IS going away. After the first 2 days,I could already notice the pimples getting smaller,the redness was going away and they didn't hurt as bad. I stopped using it for a while and my acne started coming back along my chin (where I ALWAYS get them),my birthday is coming up in a few days and I wanted to look good so I started using it once again...It's been about a week now and it's no longer noticeable. I have no problems with this product like the others. My skin has not dried out and I've never had any problems with it "ruining my clothes" I WOULD recommend this product...and I have :)

Pros:

None.

Cons:

It dries out your skin like crazy and it forms more pimples.

I used this product for months thinking it would clear up my acne. What a waste of time and money. It dried out my skin like crazy almost cracking it. Despite the use of the "moisturizer", I continued to dry up and form more acne. This product line uses too much BP in it. Overall, I wouldn't suggest using this product if you have sensitive skin. It claims to be for all skin types but I disagree.
