Pros:

it may work depending on your type of skin

Cons:

Expensive for NO reason at all
didn't work

I endured hour long testimonials on TV consistently researching online, which finally led to a purchase. Long story short it didn't work. No life changing story here.

Pros:

The spot treatment

Cons:

PRICE
Poor customer service
Tricky sales techniques

The celebs who push this product should be absolutely ashamed of themselves. This company is terrible and has made their money off of smart marketing and then literally stealing money from customers. I ordered a trial sample for $17.00, received my package, used it for a week and had horrible results - then before I could even blink - I received a second package in the mail from Proactive, a package that I did NOT order. Not only did I receive this package of products unsolicited, I was charged $36.00, plus an additional $19.99, which is still in dispute after I sent the package back usps. I immediately canceled my account by 6 months later I am still being billed the $19.99 AND they refuse to credit the $36.00 back onto my account since the issue has taking so long to resolve. I sent the package back last year! This company is a racket and I can't believe people still purchase from them. Do not use proactive - it is a scam!!!

Pros:

If u are an alligator it might for you.

Cons:

Dry Skin
Irritated skin
Destroys your face
Expensive
Is a Scam

Back in high school my acne was so bad i decided to try proactive. biggest mistake of my life. After two weeks not only was my acne worse my face was so red and dry a girl in the cafeteria told me to go look at my self in the mirror. worse day of my life. I hate proactive so much i hope this company would burst into flames. This product is trash you can find anything in stores stronger and cheaper than this and not as harmful to your skin.

Pros:

if you have IRON SKIN, then you can try it...

Cons:

wondering why it is not sold in drug stores like other products? it is NOT APPROVED!!

this alone should be a RED FLAG.

BEWARE, people are being PAID to write positive reviews about this product. just as the TV ads.

Pros:

I haven't found one pro on this product

Cons:

Everything.

From the minute after using this product my skin was dry,red an irritated. And after about a months use my skin had tiny little red bumps all over it and i still have acne. Not to mention my face is 10 times more oily. This product is way to harsh on your skin.

Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

It can dry out the skin
Expensive Benzoyl Peroxide product
It didn't get rid of ANY of my acne

I have been using this for almost over a month now, and I've seen no improvement in my skin. My acne almost seems worse. It has dried out my skin and for the cost, Proactiv is not worth it. You can buy a product with BP for far less than the cost of Proactiv.

Pros:

smells good.
not very expensive.

Cons:

flat out didnt work for me.

tried it for two months, not a week went by without a breakout.

toner runs out so much faster than the other two bottles, even when using the recommended dosage.

Im sure this may work for some, but for my acne, (oily skin, moderate/severe) it didnt have any effect. so if your skin is like mine, dont bother even trying.
