Pros:

Nice face wash

Cons:

redness, and short term results

after the first week i thought i really liked proactiv as about half of my pimples had disapeared, but soon after that i got really red and my acne started comming back. Proactiv feels cheap and really disapointed me. :(

Pros:

It smelled okay. And it cleared up my face prolly 10%

Cons:

I have been using it for a little over a month and my acne hasn't gotten any better. Also, if you skip one day your face breaks out a lot.

It doesn't work. I used it for about a month and a half and it worked very little. Seeing the commercials and infomercials and such I was expecting my face to become clear and blemish free like they show to the public. They make this stuff look like a miracle worker. It deffinately isn't. It gave me far from what I was expecting. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS!

Pros:

Worked "OK" for about a month, everything smelt good.

Cons:

stopped working quickly, dried my skin out badly, I felt like if i smiled my face was gonna crack, I ran out to quick, didnt last me near 3 months, to expensive!

The TV is fooling everybody, I seen the commercial and grew hope, then was let down.......I would reccomend Dan's regimen, working better for me then Proactiv. I use... 1)Cetaphil gentle cleansing bar 2)Dan's BP 3)Cetaphil moisturizing lotion

Pros:

it works if you faithfully using it.

Cons:

price. bottles should be clear so i know how much is left.

im on and off with it. when i was 16 it worked great, faithful for a year...untill it started affecting the wallet.. so i stopped and it had gotten really bad to the point where friends and family would say "OMG......what happened to your face?" that made me feel really bad and uncomfortable. so started buying it on and off again, because of the price. i tried everything!!!! i started oil pulling and other home remedies like apple cider vinegar, none seem to help. i also tried murad and it made my break outs worse....ever since murad ibreak out in places ive never broke out before..stopped murad after a month and bought neutrogena product. GUESS WHAT?......... didnt help.......so my mom bought the clinique 3 step acne solution, on it for 2weeks....and really dried a even more acne came, clinique specialist told me it suppose to get worse before better.....so ill give it 3 more weeks and see what happens. if it doesnt help im for sure back to proactiv.

Kinda expensive for a student like me.. T,T

Used this product for about 2 months and cleared my skin. Well, not totally clear but maybe 60% of my pimples were gone... But overall, I think this product works...

Pros:

it cleans your skin
the refining mask

Cons:

it helped my acne but, it didnt do anything for my blackheads

i WOULD RECCOMMNED IT BUT YOU WOULD HAVE TO BUY ANOTHER PRODUCT TO USE IN COMBINATION WITH THIS PRODUCT. i USE THE CLEAN AND CLEAR ADVANTAGE ACNE CONTROL KIT AND IT WORKS WONDERS!!! THE BEST THING ABOUT THE PROACTIV KIT IS THE REFINING MASK. ITS THE BEST

Pros:

It left my skin feeling very soft, for a little bit at least.

Cons:

I had a severe allergy to this product. My eyes swelled up so tight that i could barely open them. This was my first time using a B.P. product, so it may have been an allergy, being one of those unlucky 1:1000 that is allergic. Discontinued use.

If you have sensitive, pale skin, you might not want to use this.

Pros:

It made me feel good about myself. It clears my skin and softens it but I also still have my share of break-outs and blackheads. It gave me confidence.

Cons:

The price and the toner can burn, but only on an opened cut or pimple.

I love this product, Ive been using it for two years and my skin is fabulous. Although, at times I will stop my use of it out of laziness or because I have ran out of product, and when I do I break out very badly--its very important to keep your use consistent. I couldnt imagine using anything else on my skin; it is worth the extra money.
