Pros:

It works for me acne gone

Cons:

Expensive
Skin become dry and peeling
Bleaching my towels, clothes and pillow cases

I had acne for many years and never gone permanently until I use this system. I didn't buy from Proactiv anymore, it's too expensive and terrible customer service. I bought from Ebay , much cheaper. Well, I can't stop using it.

Smells nice

Cons:

Doesn't clear hormonal acne at all
Hard to keep up with skin care routine
TOO MANY STEPS
Expensive

This did not work for me. I'm 20 years old and I've been suffering from acne since I was 14, this stuff is a load of bull crap..No matter how much I used it I still got bumps on my right side of my face. So if you have hormonal acne I would suggest you not use this..

Pros:

it is the only acne line i have ever used that has actually cleared my acne!

Cons:

i have a hard time getting information on the website as far as the other products they sell. i can not seem to look through a full product catalog?

i had beautiful skin until i turned 19....then bam! my skin was a mess! ive been to several dermatologists over the past 17 yrs. only to have very tramatizing experiences followed by temporary relief. i not only have "normal" acne, i also have cystic acne.i have tried every acne line under the sun, from drug store finds to top of the line. 3 yrs ago this past march my husband of 11yrs urged me to go back on proactiv. he stated - and he was 100% correct - that my skin has never been as clear and flawless as it is when i am using proactiv.after a week & 1/2 to 2 weeks of using the line as instructed my skin began to clear.now i can not only run to the store minus the war paint - i can hold my head up high, smile & make eye contact with my clients or whom ever else i happen to meet. using proactiv has made my world a happier place be!

Pros:

The only good thing from this product is that it works quickly while you keep using it.

Cons:

Once you stop using it your acne comes back terribly.

Overall this product was no good. I mean it's good if you keep using it like forever until your acne is completely gone. On the other hand if you cannot afford to buy it every 3 months or so you just shouldn't even try it out because it'll make your face worse than when you started. It also makes your face extremely dry, to the point where you can't even move it, and it starts to peel. Probably because of all the harsh chemicals put into this product thats definitely not for sensitive skin. Before using Proactiv I only had very light acne, just around my forehead but after I used it and stopped my acne came back like crazy. I got big red pimples all over both of my cheeks in which I never had acne before. I regret ever using this product.

Pros:

cleanser also works as a microdermabrasion
helps with cystic acne along jawline

Cons:

monthly shipments
expensive

i've tried so many different products and have been warned that over age 40 proactive is too harsh for my skin..... however, this is the only product that dries up my cystic acne quickly and keeps it from returning.

Pros:

Gentle, feels nice

Cons:

Barely works, not the *best* smell

Bottom line. It didn't work hardly at all for me. I saw the commercial and got so psyched that "this was the one." Well - no it wasn't. I've used it for like 4 months now and see the SLIGHTEST difference in my skin, if any. It really didn't work for me....unfortunately. Proactiv isn't all it's talked up to be.

Pros:

NONE and I mean none.
- My age is 23,"Male".

Cons:

- OVERPRICED.
- Too mild.
- Small bottle sizes.( Don't last long => so that Proactiv people can get rich faster. )

Proactiv is a product of greed.(hate it) Grow your own: - Red glover (flower) - Chamomile (flower) - Juglans(walnut) trees =>nuts - Hazel bush =>nuts - Rye - Raspberry + many other... ... collect seeds and study plants ... and other herbsfruits that our grandfathersmothers know to help for example the Inflammations !!! (and there are a lot of healthy green things, just STUDY.)

made my skin dry and break out worst then ever before

This company should be out of business they should feel shame having all those famous people promoting they sh*t face products . I bought proactive after I had my son I starting getting pimples I didn't have an acne problem but I had a few pimple on my face between 5-10 I order proactive over the phone and waited 1 month and it never came so I gave them a call back and they said that they had the wrong address and sent it to me If came in the mail 3 weeks later after 1 week of using this sh*t I started to get these red pimple on my cheek . I never in my life had any pimple on my cheek. My problem areas always been my chine I spoke with a girl at the mall who worked for proactive she told me that's its normal for this to happen just keep using the product and within a month it should go away so I continue using proactive and my face just got worst Now I have this redish brownish color scars on my face its been months and they havnt went away. Thanks proactive
