Proactiv Solution : Acne Treatment System

some people say proactiv is too many steps..that is not true its a cleanser a toner and a lotion/ which is what you should be doing to your skin everyday anyway....the truth is....proactiv works...it has been the only thing tha has worked on my skin. i only experienced dryness with the product if i used too much of the product, you only need a litttle of the cleanser and a little of the lotion and you will see how soft and smooth your skin becomes within like 2 weeks of using it....it also faded my dark spots and gave my skin a glowing complexion, i have stopped using it couple times to try new products only for the acne to come back worse and end up going back to it....it truly is amazing.....some people complain about when you stop the acne comes back....well they should know, there is no cure for acne, so once you stop treatmen of course it will come back if you have acne prone skin

I got the "new proactive" about 3 days ago and I immediately saw results. I started getting bad acne after getting the mirena birth control. I used it as directed and the next morning all my white heads had dried up and were practically gone! I absolutely love this product. The repairing treatment makes my skin so smooth! The only problem is that the bottles are so small I'm afraid it will be gone in just a few days and I'll have to spend a lot of money replacing it...

I think proactiv is the best acne system in the world the reason for the low rating is because the people who write reviews are on acne.org looking for help with acne. Overall it helped a lot but wont help everyone defiantly worth a try.

It is a really good product! Works pretty fast. You get what you pay for!! The refining mask is great. If you have a big pimple you put a bit of it on and in the morning it is twice as small!

I used Proactiv for a few years and loved it. I recently stopped because I am developing cystic acne. I recommend this product, especially if you have pimples, blackheads, and whiteheads. Anything bigger than that, you probably need something better.

It's a great product! I use the New Proactiv by the way. The old one seems to harsh. I recommend buying it at a kiosk! The bottles are twice as big and you don't have to pay for shipping!

I love it

It worked for me and may work for you too. Just stay of it if it does work, there's no point in trying to get off something that has been working for so long. I've tried acne.org "treatment" and feels like i'm putting too much BP on. PRoactiv's recommended dosage of BP was a dime sized amount and that worked for me. The proactiv BP just leaves your skin a bit oily. I am going to get back on the Proactiv system soon. I regret ever trying to get off of it! :(

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.

First of all, I ought to tell you guys that I'm 19 yo and have very sensitive oily skin (I'm even irritated by Cetaphil Lotion, which is for sensitive skin). After reading bunches of reviews about Proactiv, I was hesitated to buy it or not; Then I decided to buy CLEARASIL, which was working really well for resizing pimples, but it also dried my skin out and left a lot of dark spots. Then, I gave up with Clearasil, and tried Proactiv Solution. So I drove to the mall to get it, and after made the payment, held the item on my hand, do you believe that the clerk told me, "you may have more acne before it gets better!". I was like, "Wait, WHAT? Seriously?" The night when I first used, I was scared of what the clerk said, but nah, I was amazed because my skin was too soft and smooth without redness. Until next day, I checked my face carefully and NO new pimples popped up, It meant I was not irritated. --Cleanser : I don't really like it (I hope it could be in foam formula), but it worked okay, this is the first time I've ever used a Cleanser contained beads without irritating skin. Thank God! --Toner: Like I said, I have oily skin, but the Toner controls excess oil perfectly, I love it. --Treatment : Because it is gel, so it can absorb really fast, doesn't make greasy. Finally, I will keep up with Proactiv, because I'm too sick with my 5-year acne experienced in my life. I wish I could tried it before, instead of using a bunch of brands selling in Walmart. One more thing is I need to thank one of the reviewer in here, she/he said people should give it a try, bc everybody's skin is different.
