Pros:

It works great as a spot treatment if you leave it on overnight. It either gets rid of the pimples or makes them smaller, and less red.

Cons:

Not the best smelling product & it's expensive.

It works, but if you use it too much your skin seems to become immune to it, or it becomes irritated. It's best to use as a spot treatment, or if you have a major breakout that you want to clear up overnight.

Pros:

I have been using Proactiv for more than a year and it cleared me up in 2 weeks. My acne was very bad and thanks to proactiv, I have clear beautiful skin...

Cons:

I agree that it's time consuming but it sure is worth it. It does NOT smell bad people are just too picky...

The best thing that has ever happened to me.

Pros:

Its okay. I still use it occasionally if i get a really red spot. It helps it reduce the redness.

Cons:

None i can think of only that it dosn't "zap" the zit overnight like they claim. Kinda expensive too.

I bought this to use as a spot treatment while i waited for my acne.org regimen kit to come in. It held off acne for the time, but now i hardly use it at all. I still have like a huge tube of it left which im guessing will expire before i use it up. Overall a decent product. The only proactiv product that does anything decent to help my acne.

Pros:

helps get rid of pimples....

Cons:

but only put it on like twice a week because if if you put it on too much you can actually break out more and it might leave scars

i recomend it but just use it wisely

Pros:

it seriously does work if you get committed to it for a couple days. i wear mine over night, atleast 3 times a week and my skin feels soft as a tissue :)

Cons:

people stop bitching how bad it smells, just take it like a mad put it on and freakin get some sexy skin =D

i suggest this product to anybody.

Pros:

Results the very next day!
Clears skin fast, improves look and feel of skin. Doesn't dry skin out.

Cons:

Expensive for amount, not readily available in stores, you have to buy over the internet.

This product works better than anything I have tried. I do not like any of the other proactive products but I thought I would give this a try and I literally woke up with a different face. I have been having a really bad reaction with the most horrible break-out of my life from Clinque products and I have been trying everything to get rid of it from green tea, tea tree oil, nutrogena scrub and face wash and nothing was working until I used this mask. If you want actual results and quickly, this is the product. Just make sure you are not allergic to sulfer, which is what makes this product so effective. I ran out of the proactive so I did buy Queen Annes Masque because it also has sulfer, hopefully it will be just as good.

Pros:

makes your skin feel very clean.

Cons:

It's a sulfur mask so it smells like sulfur/eggs. The smell lingers on your face all day. I recommend using this mask ONLY at night and washing it off, then washing your face again in the morning to get rid of the smell, or else it will linger.

It works, as a mask. Not as a spot treatment and it smells really bad.
