Pros:

cleared up acne
smells good
gentle
prevents new acne

Cons:

doesnt help dark spots much

My first week, my whole face cleared up. My skin wasnt too dry afterwards but i used moisturizer, the only thing i wish it did was clear up the dark spots after a pimple, but they go away on their own after 3 weeks. I LOVE IT!!!

Pros:

It may work for some not for my son.

Cons:

expensive. You are just be an another victom from them for automatic charge on your credit card. All you can do is calling your credit card company and block the company to charge on your account.

worthless.

Pros:

Proactiv is by far an excellent product. Clears up acne 100%. I use it once per day and it works great.

Cons:

If I stop using it for a couple days I will break out again. My skin is not sensitive at all. My friends skin is and she can not use the toner.

Great product if you do not have really sensitive skin.

Pros:

I worked pretty good-the refining mask was great!!!

Cons:

it made my skin red, but no bumps
also the oil treatment really dries out your skin- don't use it

I guess everyone is different- but I've used it for aobut a year, and it's still working pretty good, but you should probably also use it with a moisturizer

Pros:

My son tried this product for 8 months. This product does not work it ruined my sons face who was 16 years old at that time now 17. He had very few acne before he tried this proactive then it got worse after treatment.

Cons:

Expensive and does not work. They have an excellent commercial to sell this product and would not recommend to someone to try because it is too costly.

Product doesn't work and the company have celebrities to advertise this product. Shame on them. It ruined my teenage son's face.

Pros:

I tried this product like 1month ago and it worked then my mom told me they had it at costco. wrong! it was something different.

I was wondering did anyone breakout when beginning to use this product?

Pros:

I get compliments all the time on my skin about how its smooth/clear from girls and how its soft from guys. There is no need for me to wear make-up all over my face anymore.

Cons:

Its is kinda expensive(for a poor college student) I broke out more after I started using it but I kept at it, and it cleared right up.

You have to keep at it!! I started using it in High School. Yes, it made me break out more the first month but it vanished just as quickly. I guess because my skin was adjusting/clearing itself out. You have to discover through trial and error..and yes maybe a little effort/experimentation, how to manipulate the system to work for you. I myself use more toner. I keep the mask on overnight on pimples, when I do get them, and they clear up in 1-2 days. I do performance work, so my complexion is important to me. This stuff works and i've recommended it to fellow co-workers and they are just as happy with the results. Just grin and go on and give it time.
