Pros:

My face was very clear when I was using this product. I didn't have many problems before I started but it made my skin even better.

Cons:

After my product ran out and I wasn't using it anymore, my face started to get severly dry and flaky.

Now I am wondering if I am stuck with this dry skin forever because no form of moisturizer seems to be working!

Pros:

None

Cons:

Too harsh on the skin. I have very oily skin and Proactive dries out the skin so badly that if you stop, the breakouts are 10x worse (according to my dermatologist).

Don't buy Proactive! For $60.00 you can purchase Dr. Murad's skin care system and it will last for almost 8 months!!! (Dr Murad's system can be purchased it salons) You will also get better results.....

Pros:

- smells quiet good
- after about a month, redness went down and a couple of pimples

Cons:

- caused new breakouts between uses
- one bottle will run out eventually, so your left with 2 which is unequal and won't work
-

i suppose it really depends on your skin it will work for such white heads but no for severe, spots / scars and such

Pros:

Works for some people

Cons:

Only cleared the acne from my nose and forehead. My chin and cheeks got worse.

It doesn't do all that it says it does for everyone. I've got friends that it works great for, but not me.

Pros:

Clears up acne very well after about 2 months of using it consistently, if you continue the steps, your skin will stay clear.

Cons:

it only worked for me for about 2 years, after that my acne came back full blown and the only thing that Proactive did was dry out my skin terribly.

proActiv worked extremely well for me for the first 2 years as long as I used it consistently and did all 3 steps. For the 3rd year however proActive has not worked and my Acne has gotten bad. I have continued using it through the year hoping that it would start to work again but i realized that it was just making my skin worse. I stopped cold turkey and my skin cleared beautifully for 3 glorious weeks. Unfortunatly, my acne has returned to plague me.

Pros:

Made my skin very soft. It also made it feel clean.

Cons:

I was sort of expensive.

It will make you look very butiful, or hansome. It will make you feel good about yourself too.
