Proactiv Solution : Acne Treatment System

You know, I read many reviews online before I decided to order this product. Many of them were negative but I decided that $30 to try something wouldn't hurt. I have to say this is the best acne product I've ever come across. It did dry out my skin at first, but I called customer service and found out that I was using way too much of the cleanser. Other reviews I've read bash the company altogether. The company isn't doing anything illegal. You're entered into a replenishment program - it clearly states that. On the commercials (worded "with auto home delivery") and is on their web site and it's even in their catalogs. It's not their fault that no one bothers to read. It also cancel at any time. Why is everyone up in arms about the auto home delivery? You're made aware of it by purchasing the initial product and it IS on your invoice that comes with your initial intro kit. Another thing that disappoints me about some of the reviews is the fact that no one seems to know math. Yes, the basic 90 day supply seems expensive - I had a heart attack at first, too. But after crunching some numbers and talking to customer service, I'm still only paying the amount that I paid for a 30 day supply each month. Of course, the more product you add, the higher the total kit price. To sum it up, the product is great. If it doesn't work out - you can send it back for a refund within 60 days (for those who don't know how to read, it's minus shipping and handling). Stop writing hateful reviews for a product because you're too ignorant to read the fine print and everything else pertaining to the product.

Don't waste your money and time on this scam. It doesn't work!!! It actually only got rid of my blackheads but turned my zits into really dark spots!!! I now have weird bumps on my face.

Don't even give it another thought! Do not buy this product. It's not healthy for your skin "even though they say it's ok." Even their new "gentle" formula is a Horrible on skin. I used it twice each time for about 3 months. I just stopped using it again last week, and added up my wasted money...3 stupid shipments = $107.71 The products smell bad, stains EVERYTHING , tares up your hands and face, and your skin goes pale from all the harsh products, and don't fall for their mask, it too smells so bad, and it works no better than a dab of toothpaste. just 200% more expensive. Good luck trying to cancel this product, it's confusing and takes months to complete...DO NOT PAY WITH A CREDIT OR DEBIT CARD!!! They don't seem to know when to stop charging it.

I used this 2 times. One time when I was 11 and the other about 6 months ago. It was horrible. They kept charging me even when I stopped the order. It made my skin so bad. I was dissapointed. It's a bad product. Don't even get me started on the annoying commercials. It worked for a week, then it made my skin living hell. I used this for over a few months hoping for results, and nothing.

Using this felt like I was drenching my skin in chemicals. I didn't like it, and neither did my skin. I used this exactly as directed, and at one week, my skin broke out terribly. It felt painful and looked awful. I know it says that breaking out during this is normal, but it's just so difficult to trust anything that says that anymore. I used the regimen for a week after, and I saw absolutely no improvement. I fixed up my skin with a gentle cleanser and witch hazel toner. I kept the green tea moisturizer that came with the kit since that worked really well. It's been a few months and I still have the scars from when I used Proactiv. I guess this works for some people, but not for anyone who breaks out in severe acne.

SUCKS!

This stuff is a LIE! It's not worth your money. Don't waste your time because it only makes your acne worse! It gives you severe deep painful pimples, enlarges your pores, and just makes you feel horrible! My self esteem went down and I found myself hiding from my friends and avoiding contact with other people. It is a HORRIBLE product! And when you stop using the product the company will never stop bugging you about how they "miss you so much". its so annoying. If you know your own good, don't waste your time on this product, its a lie.

I have been using this system religiously (twice daily) for countless months now, and I have seen no change in my acne whatsoever. I was ready to get serious about my acne after suffering for 7 years and sort of sampling products here and there, and I really thought this was the answer. I had used it a little in the past and liked how it made my skin feel smooth and clean then, but I didn't experience that this time. I really didn't experience any change (good or bad) in my skin. I even stopped wearing makeup on my face to see if that would help! Now my face just looks red and awful all the time, but I just don't even care anymore. I will keep using this since I don't know what else to do. I do think that if you have mild acne that has not yet left scars on your face then this system may work well for you. I think I just waited too long to take action.

I was very disappointed in my Proactiv experience. Not only was I mislead, but it did not work. Upon placing my initial order it was very misleading as to what I was going to be charged each month. Also, I was very disappointed in how long it actually took to get my order once I was charged. I had decided to give it some time to see if it would work. After receiving two shipments and still no results, I decided to call it quits. Once I called to cancel my order, although the status of the next shipments according to my online account said that it had not been shipped yet, I was informed that it was too late and that the order was going to be shipped anyways and that I was going to have to return it. So not only did I have to pay to have something I did not want shipped to me, I also had to pay to return it. I did all this, and when I called Proactiv the woman informed me that I was not going to be charged any more and that I would be refunded for my first monthly installment. I purchased delivery confirmation for my order and saw that it had been recieved on the 22nd of this month, and lo and behold yet another installment had been withdrawn from my account on the 24th. I can understand it might take time to process everything, but once it's in your system as being returned you should be able to stop further payments. It's all computerized anyways. My overall experience with proactiv was very upsetting and I am still waiting to be refunded and aggitated that I lost out on shipping, to and from might I add. It's very unfortunate, but I suppose things aren't always what they seem. Regretful and disappointed,

would not recommend.made my acne worse for $40 it was not worth it.
