Pros:

I am a woman in my late 20's and have developed adult acne. this product cleared my acne after 1+ month. Best regime line I have tried.

Cons:

somewhat expensive but it delivered for me

You must use the entire 3 step regime plus the mask occasionally. If you only use the cleanser, it may make your problem worse. I only used the cleanser for 1 year with no reduction in my acne then I switched to the 3 step regime and now I am clear. Consistency and following directions is the key.

Pros:

It really helped clear up my blemishes, the booklet gives you AWESOME ideas and tips to help keep your face perfect, the refining mask is just 100% 'pro activ' :P

Cons:

The routine is tiring, and you notice blemishes come up twice as much even if you miss a day or 2 of the routine.

I am glad I got pro activ, it may not clear up every blemish, but it makes me look like a normal person with the occasional blemish. I wasn't expecting my skin to go 100% clear like alot of other people expect, but I am sure my skin will get even better. My skin reacted very nicely and the pro activ seemed to help me out alot!

Pros:

Helps (gradually) clear up acne, smooths skin, tightens pores and is easy to use.

Cons:

Skins may be itchy for the first week, but it gets used to the Benzoyl Peroxide quick enough. The Lotion feels a bit greasy and the Cleanser feels and smells like sunscreen.

A good product, but not as 'luxurious' as they claim it to be. The big pimples are getting smaller and some bumps and blemishes have completely cleared up.

Pros:

I guess my pores look smaller and alot of the tiny bumps are gone

Cons:

its not stopping new pimples from forming

Its making the overall texture of my skin better. Its not doing anything to keep new pimples from coming. The little bumps I had all over are going away. I am still developing new pimples on my jaw line and cheecks.

Pros:

Works great for a few years. The first time I used it at age 16 it cleared up my moderate almost overnight, literally. It was amazing.

Cons:

Incredibly expensive. Works only if you continue to use it.

I think this is a good product but you can't stop using it. It worked amazingly for me for 2 years. Once I stopped for 2 years and started again it never worked the same way. It is just so expensive. Overall, though, it has been the best product I have used for my moderate acne which it still a daily issue for me. If you can afford continual use I recommend it.

Pros:

Cleared up pimples on my face (even though I was really red for a little while after every use)when using it twice a day. I liked how I could switch my monthly supply to every other month since I wasn't using it up as fast.

Cons:

Dried out my skin when using it two times a day within 2 weeks of using it, I even went to one use a day yet it wasn't as effective in keeping the pimples away. Doesn't clean the makeup off of my face. It's expensive.

It worked at first for me, but than I'd breakout and dry out my face. When I would exercise (no makeup on) I always tingled and broke out in a rash. I would recommend trying it at least to see if it works for you.
