Proactiv Solution : Acne Treatment System

Hated it. I never really buy into the whole "infomercial" thing but I was out of options so I thought I would give this a try and um...let's just say I won't be trusting anymore infomercials. I'm extremely disappointed. I mean I wasn't expecting perfection, but I WAS expecting improvement which I got none of....so....My advice is don't waste your money.

It sucks...spent so much money and it did NOTHING for me.

I bought ProActiv because I had seen so many ads on TV and my skin was getting worse each day. I wasn't too surprised that it was so expensive. Bottom line, it didn't work. My skin didn't get any better, and since ProActiv didn't prevent any new breakouts like it PROMISED, it made it worse. After quitting ProActiv, I switched to Clinique and my face is finally beginning to clear up :)

Now this is what i call sad.. NEVER worked.. made my face red.. never showed improvement. wow. i am very ashamed with you proactiv. What a shame.

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order and saw that it had been recieved on the 22nd of this month, and lo and behold yet another installment had been withdrawn from my account on the 24th.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,

FIRST OF ALL, it's better to buy it online! I bought it @ one of those booths in the mall, it was wayyyy overpriced! It was about $100+ Online, you can purchase it for about $40. ** and you might be able to get a free gift. It dried out my skin. Used it twice a day, for a couple of weeks, didn't notice any change.

i didn't know i was allergic to benzoyl peroxide, i continued use for about 2 days until my face was red, blotchy and gross. the acne was still there too... but probably because i didn't use it long enough for it to go down. BASICALLY, TEST THIS BEFORE YOU USE IT. you DON'T WANT the allergic reaction i got!

Don't Order!!!

Let me tell you of my "experience" with the AMAZING *snorts, yeah right* Proactive. I was like many of you, I suffer from Bad Acne and I always heard about the joys of Proactive and thought "Why Not? It worked for others so it might work for me" My mom bought it and my initial thought was 'I hit the jack pot! Now I'll never suffer from acne again!' WRONG!! My face was always irritated and I had even more excessive oily skin. I had acne ALL the time using it which caused alot more blemishes. Acne made me feel like I was the most ugly person in the world and I HATED to look on my face. I was horrible around boys due to it and I never had any self confidence. It hurt to see all the other girls with flawless skin and I was stuck with horrid skin. My hopes in this product was in vain. Clearsil worked alot better than Proactive ever had! I don't know about you guys but they kept on sending me their product even though my mom only wanted it for one use, BUNCH OF CROOKS AND LIARS! I would never recommend this to any one with bad acne, my friend uses it and it works for her, then again she never suffered from bad acne to begin with :/ Stay clear guys I beg you! :(

My face got use to it. And I heard that the mask that comes with it is bad for you. Sulfur isn't good for your skin. Pretty much, it sucks. It contains what most other acne solutions contain.
