Pros:

Makes you feel like it's going to work....

Cons:

Wash irritates your skin because of those stupid beads..

Repairing lotion doesn't really work it makes your skin oily..

Toner is stupid and it makes your skin even more oily...

Just an ineffective product...

Proactiv = Negactiv Too costly... Just try Dans treatment if you havn't yet.. Proactiv doesn't work it's a waste of money because they only made the bottles smaller.. and they trick you into a 4 month buying plan where you end up spending $150 which is ridiculous...

Pros:

Hopeful that it would work.

Cons:

Auto-ship and charge
Small amounts of product
Adverse reaction
HORRIBLE customer service!!

I'm happy for those people that this product worked for unfortunately I am not one of them. My face completely broke out in a raised rash and then peeled off. I then had to begin the two month process of canceling my account. Absolutely ridiculous! I which I had never tried it!

Pros:

The thought that it might work at first.

Cons:

Left my skin irritated, did not dry out pimples, still got new breakouts.

I was frustrated because the 'new gentle formula' was not gentle. The cleanser was too rough for my skin and actually felt like it was scratching my skin. I bought a 2 month supply of the starter kit which included the cleanser, toner, lotion, mask, oil control, and sunscreen. I used them as directed..Proactiv just did not work for me!

PROACTIV IS OK BUT DOES NOT MAKE YOUR FACE SMOOTH CLEAR IT ALSO DEPENDS ON THE TYPE OF SKINS YOU HAVE BUT KEEP IN MIND THAT PROACTIV IS NOT THE CURE TO ACNE AND SOONER OR LATER YOU START BREAKING OUT AGAIN :( bUT KEEP HOPES UP ACNE WILL SOONER OR LATER DISAPPEAR :)

This product will make your skin look much older and damage. It dries your skin, specially if your hace dry skin or thin skin.

Pros:

I hate to say it, but there were no pros for me.

Cons:

Bleached my pillow cases (that only made me worried about what it was doing to my face)
Created even more pimples and I used this product for 2 months, which is longer than the time the product suggests. Drying feeling.

Honestly this product may work for some people, but I highly doubt that it works in 2 weeks like the commercials suggest. My brown pillow cases were bleached while I was using proactiv, and I don't even want to guess what it was doing to my face, but it sure as heck wasn't clearing up my zits.

Pros:

Benzoyl Peroxide cleanser
Nice exfoliant
Kept skin around my nostrils from flaking

Cons:

Smells bad
Didn't help acne at all
Toner and lotion made skin oily

I bought the 1 month supply, and it worked the first day. THAT'S IT. I was out of town and i washed my face with it the next morning, and it took away all of my tiny white heads and kept them away. The next month that I kept using it, i kept breaking out as usual. I thought toner was used to keep my skin fresh and have a nice texture throughout the day, right? Apparently not. It made my face feel sticky and made it slightly oily. I have VERY oily skin, so this was not good to start off the day with already oily skin. I would use as little of the lotion as possible, but that too would make my skin end up oily. Definitely a rip off. Pleaseeeee try something else before this!
