Proactiv Solution : Acne Treatment System

Give it a try. But I think there are cheaper alternatives in Walgreens which have the same ingredients.

So I got proactiv when i was about 13 and it worked for a few months. Then my face started to get really red and oily. I went to the dermatologist and they basically told me that Proactiv is for the Hollywood stars that need a quick fix until they can get an appointment with their dermatologist. DO NOT waste your money on Proactiv unless you just had a minor break out and you have a dance or a trip to go to. It is not going to fix your acne or calm it down in the long run. trust me. been there, done that.

eh.. ive used it on and off for YEARS... it clears up my acne on my back decently.. but it always comes back.. its just a vicious cycle.

BUY IT!! :) Okay, so I'll tell you what I do to clarify. *I only use Proactiv at night 1) Before my shower, I put on the refining mask for about 5-10 minutes (until it is dry). 2) I shower in warm water, possibly baithing with the deep cleansing wash. 3) I wash my face (still in shower) with the first bottle/renewing cleanser. 4) I get out of my shower, dry my face of ALL moisture, and apply the revitalizing toner. 5) I wait for the toner to dry, and I apply a medium-thickness layer of the repairing lotion. 6) I wait for the lotion to dry, and I apply the green tea moisturizer and the dark spot remover. ***The Green Tea Moisturizer, Refining Mask, Dark Spot Remover, Deep Cleansing Wash were all gifts from my monthly use of proactiv!!*** FREE EAACHH MONNTHH!

I love this product! It gets into your pores and gets rid of future pimples! Most people are moderate, like me but I speak the truth. Most people here are lying, but I'm not. My words are very useful.

Im going to stop using it and try something else. Dislike.

The commercials make it seem so much better than it actually is..it works,kinda,but you have to constantly use it for your face to STAY clear.

I started using Proactive when I was around thirteen, and it worked so well! I stopped using it for a while, and my acne came back like crazy. I tried AcneFree, but that didn't seem to work for me at all! Starting Proactiv again, I saw a huge difference in my skin. I thought that Proactiv was my solution forever, but eventually, my skin became immune to it and it stopped working. Now I'm sixteen and just recently switched to using a tretinion cream. Proactive comes in three easy steps. Cleanser, toner, and the repairing treatment. I would definitely recommend Proactiv, but make sure you have a good moisturizer to keep you from getting too dry! I would suggest using oil free moisturizer in the morning rather than the repairing treatment. I found that that was best used at night, but be very careful about what touches your face, as it bleaches super easily! I used to put an old towel over my pillow cases, but you could always just get white pillow cases. When you're washing and drying your face, use wash cloths and towels that you won't mind turning orange. :) The only other problem I had with Proactiv is that sometimes when I was finished washing my face, my skin would burn. It was nothing unbearable or deal breaking for me, just kind of uncomfortable. Every month was too often for me to get my Proactive in the mail, so I chose to have it come every three months. That usually worked out perfectly with the cleanser, but I often found myself with extra bottles of toner and repairing treatment. Definitely not a bad thing, though! I just stocked my bathroom cabinets with Proactiv. :) My advice is that if you are struggling with acne, you should definitely give Proactiv a try! Hope all your acne problems are solved. :)

Proactiv works pretty well, might not work for some people, but thats because maybe they are skipping over some fine details. Like... watch out for the sun, protect your skin as much as possible, avoid oils, wash your face AND HANDS with just water often, you may never know when you touch your face. Get lots of sleep, when you sleep your body takes in much more oxygen, allowing your body; especially your skin, to heal. *If you decide to stay up late, wash your face with warm water often.

I have been using proactiv solutions along with vitaclear vitamins by proactiv....:) I still have acne on my forehead and chin, but it has seriously gotten better!!!! and hope it will continue to! another thing I started doing was drinking more water, and I seriously think that it has made my skin more clear and hydrated. it has helped with the drying effects of proactiv. basically... if you are desperately searching this website looking for things that might work, please just give it a try. ps, and if you don't want to buy Proactiv through their actuall company (some people have had complaints that they charge your credit card for things you never get) you can buy proactiv for cheaper on [link removed]
