Pros:

Softens skin, tightens pores

Cons:

Some may not like the smell

I use it as a mask all over my face, not just as a spot treatment and it works wonders! I do wish it was cheaper though.

Pros:

used it for the first time last week, kept it on a couple of hours. went to dinner with my family and they literally were raving about how my skin looked baby soft. not making that up.

Cons:

eh i guess the only thing is you probably cant use it every day. its just for when youve got breakouts

its probably not gonna work for everyone- but it definitely did for me.

Pros:

The refining mask works really well on clearing up the skin and it feels really nice when it's on. I dont actually mind the smell it just smells like a mineral....

Cons:

It's hard to get just on it's own and it's kinda expensive and the other poducts make my skin crustacious.

Bottom line? its good but proactiv need to sell it seperatly at a lower price in a big bottle!

Pros:

Works very well (but it's not magic, so don't get your hopes up that your blemish will be gone in 1 nite, but it does clear it faster than other products I've tried!)

I noticed a few of you looking to buy it separately and not in the whole set! Well, say HELLO to eBay!! I can't afford the whole kit and kaboodle but you can totally but it individually on eBay! YAY FOR EBAY!! LoL

Pros:

The product does a great job of drying out my pimples. and it works really well on those big hard to get rid of welps. I really like the smell..haha.

Cons:

The package is too small. They send too much of the other products, and they dont send enough of the refining mask.

i think this product works better than the other proactive steps combined. i don't even use the repairing lotion it made my skin oily.

Pros:

It definitely gets rid of redness and irritation better than anything else I have used. The smell doesn't bother me at all.

Cons:

I don't know how to get it without buying the whole proactiv kit, which doesn't work.

I'd love to be able to buy it separately--if I could, I definitely would. I don't know how it compares to other sulfur-based products though, which may work just as well.

Pros:

This product is amazing. It calms my skin when I have pressure-causing acne and when I remove the mask I can see how open my pores are and the oil/plugs coming out of my skin.

Cons:

The price for Proactiv overall is high, but I feel it is worth it. I actually like the sulfur smell, but I might have a positive association with it's affects on my acne.

Get it if you can at all afford it! I use it once or twice a week and you only need a small amount. You can also focus it exclusively on your problem areas (i.e., my chin, upper lip and nose). Also, leave it on for more than the 10 minutes it suggests. Really let it dry up.

Pros:

banishes pimples and dries them out until your left with fresh skin

Cons:

container to small and the price

its a great product to use just alone, even without the 3 step system ive been using it for about a month and all my pimples have pretty much dried up. i recommend to use this because it actually works..
