It brings up all of the acne that you have and will have and then after about a week or two the acne starts being eliminated. It leaves your skin feeling soft.

Pros:

clears pimples

Cons:

doesnt clear blackheads, burns skin, dries it out

it worked pretty good for me. everyone says it gets worse before the acne starts to clear but after the first day of using proactive, i already saw some of the acne clear up. it didnt clear everything, but it cleared a lot of it.

Pros:

that its easy to use

Cons:

if you stop using it for one day .. you will regret it

i only use this product for last result i need this bump to clear up now type situations .... i wouldn't use this product on my face everyday because its to harsh on your skin... like honestly the first few days you can tell a difference but then a good 2 weeks into the product it slowly start burning your face and irritates the skin to the point of insanity ... like is starts making your skin peel ... like plus it just smoothes your face and leaves the scars.... a lot of my scars on my face are due to proactive ... and it still leaves the black heads on your face as well .. i think if you have like crater ... cyst ... holes .. knots ... severe black heads .. whiteheads .. patches of bumps on your face like all that sh*t on your face then yeah use proactive but if you have light .. moderate acne don't use this product because it will lowkey make it worse because it'll leave all the scars and then you will have to go to the doctor like me and invest in lighting creams ...

Pros:

It works really Quickly
Decrease in the number of pimples on about two weeks.

Cons:

may burn a bit at first
not consistent. if the routine isn't followed, you face get worst than before?

its okay i guess once your are going to keep using the product. rumor has it that after about three or four sets, its stops working but i have only used two set... i cant deal with the routine!!

Pros:

It rids ur face of pimples eventually. (3-4 months in my case)

Cons:

It gets worse before it gets better.

I used it, it cleared up my skin, left me w/ some scars. I wouldn't buy it again.

Pros:

It feels good, and the mask does work overnight

Cons:

It rarely works, the mask and the toner react weird so they smell bad, I have been using it for months and still have horible acne

Maybe it does work on some people, but I'm doing everything as the instructions say and have had no luck whatsoever. Because of this, I believe either it doesn't work, or I am one of the unlucky few who got the 'control package'.

Pros:

Clears pimples and zits

Cons:

Dries skin terribly, give skin a strange texture, too frequent shipments

I always had pretty clear skin up until about a year ago when stress caught up with me and my skin had a horrible reaction. I started getting little zits and HUGE pimples. I ordered Proactiv and I have gotten very few pimples. However, my skin is dry and stiff. I was left with scars and like..discolorations. If all you want is no or very few pimples..Proactiv will give that to you.

Pros:

It makes you smooth feel soft and refreshed!The redness reduces and the washing scrub has tint pebles that remove the dead skin !

Cons:

After a few hours after i apply toner my face get more oily than usual. The repairing lotion somtimes tickles.The mask is sometimes hard to take off ..

Its good but might not work twith everybody as i was younger i used it and it worked really good after i stopped using it for a while acne started to bulid up bs it wasnt really severe so i thought of getting it again but it was diffrent it hadent have that strong powerfull treatment as i used couple years iback , espacialy the toner but the washing scrub was good !.. i would recommend you to use it to see if it works on you face as it did o me back then :)
