Pros:

It helped slightly at first,and arrived at a good time.

Cons:

After about a month my pimples got worse and worse and very painful.Now I am stuck with even MORE pimples than before Proactiv and it was a bit of a scam.My mom had to cancel the membership because it kept charging her and sending more and more.

I am twelve and have used this for many years and do NOT like my results!Please do not get scammed!Don't use this product!

Pros:

-Works really well after a long time (several weeks)
-Pimples don't come back, and if they do, they fade within' a day or two

Cons:

-Used for more then a year: skin texture much uglier
-Leaved wrinkles i didn't have before (did not use sunscreen...photosensitivity?)
-Bleached around lip areas

Best product i've used so far but the long lasting side effects, including high use of parabens makes it seem just not worth it

Pros:

-Refined my skin
-cleared up small acne that was on my forehead
-I have been using proactiv for just over a week and it seems to also be working on the cysts. I use the refining mask as a spotter overnight and it sucks out the oil of the pimple

Cons:

-After the 2nd application my skin went extremely dry but this seemed to stop when i peristed.
-I use it once a day and i am not going to use it twice a day becasue of its drying effect
-The moisturisor doent really do much so i am now using my

-I have only used this for a week and a bit. When i first started i though i was going to have to stop because my skin was so dry but now it seems to be working very well and my skin is constantly improving. - i am happy with this product :)

Pros:

Makes your skin feel soft...thats it!

Cons:

Biggest waste of time ever! I truly wish I had found this website earlier to find something that worked! I used Proactiv for about 2 months straight day and night with NO RESULTS. I am now using Duac at night and wow that works great :)

If you have oily skin with moderate to severe acne, move along! Try cleansing your face twice a day along with Duac gel :)

Pros:

well it was nicely packaged

Cons:

in the first 2 day of use my acne got alot worse. still using it ......
gonna see if it gets better... smells bad. all of the stuff stings my face. no results yet after like 3.5 days. adds seem to lie ALOT about seeing results quickly.

hasent worked yet . hopeing it will.... 10% peroxide works - but hurts the skin. if this doesnt work for you just get that. im gonna have to say i wouldnt recommend it because its only caused pain, money, time, and made acne worse in only 2 days......... might work later on..... im gonna be a giunie pig and try it for 2 weeks.

Pros:

Cleared out pimples with constant use but few pimples still appears especially during exams and menstrual periods. Skin is smoother.

Cons:

One needs to purchase the entire kit even if only the cleanser or repairing lotion is needed. Therefore, this makes it way to expensive to use.

Works well but flexibility for acquiring only the needed product type is not provided.
