Proactiv Solution : Refining Mask

the perfect over night spot treatment

When I first started using this I would just dab it on the pimple... go to bed and wake up and it would be gone. HOWEVER after awhile I would put the mask on the pimple and I would wake up and the pimple would be formed O_O. I'm not sure if this happened for anyone else but based on this I would not use this for long term acne. It's great for spot treatment for people with LIGHT ACNE though.

This is a great product, but the rest of the proactive system dried my skin out so bad that I had to put Carmex on certain spots. I would love for Proactive to start selling the Refining Mask alone and not charging so much for it. I hate to pay the price for it, but it is such a great product that I am looking to buy it online as I write this. It is hard to find a product that works in the acne market. Proactive and all the celebrity's that have endorsed it have ruined their names in my book. My advice to them is to sell what works and drop the rest, or redesign the rest of the system. I am tired of paying for products that don't work and I think it's time for companies and their spokesmen to start being accountable for their claims. Yea! Proctive for the Refining Mask, Boo! for everything else.

I do not use this product as mask. Instead, I use it as a spot treatment for pimples. For that it is great! The blemishes dry out and disappear a lot quicker. Because I use it as a spot treatment, the smell is not overwhelming at all.

First off, let me tell you that I have tried a wide variety of medication and treatments for my acne. With a very sensitive face, I have not had much luck with the Proactiv 3 Step -- I found it to be overly drying, giving my face a burnt look. However, this product does work well with me. I have found it to dramatically improve the look of my face like none other. I do not plan on continuing with the use of the three step -- esp. those products which include benzol peroxide as my face had trouble with it. However, this product (other than price) is one in which I have been very pleased with.

The only item worth getting from the ProActiv line. It works really well. Make sure you only use a small amount when you use it as a mask- that's all you need, and it will last you a lot longer

It's good to have, but I wouldnt recomend using it as a mask but its far to expensive and like I said, it can be somewhat rough on your skin. Its sulfur treatment, so if you know how your skin reacts to that you can base that way.

If they sold it at a more reasonable price and made it more readilly available...then I bet they would make more money. I don't know what their problem is.

It helped me with my acne a lot. When your using this product, do not just leave it on for 10 minutes or so, just leave it on overnight, and you will see SOME results the next morning.

use it. it works. period. it's worth it if you hate acne and the self-consciousness acne brings. i had *bad* acne on my neck & jaw line (of all places). huge, cyst-like pimples surrounded by tons of white heads. horrible. ugly. painful. the mask go such a long way in a) clearing up that junk and b) preventing it in the first place. i guess it can't work for every single person, but it certainly works for me. you've got to give it a try to see if it works for YOU.
