Pros:

It actually works. I use this mask in conjunction with the proactiv 3-step routine and it's a life saver. I have tried everything and struggled with chest/back/face acne since I was 12 - this is the only thing that worked. Try it now.

Cons:

It smells not so great, but you get used to it.

Absolutely try this.

Pros:

Zaps pimples pretty fast flatens them out nicely

Cons:

texture isnt that great a little grainy but it works why complain

I Used this product previously and would apply as a mask rather then a spot treatment evens out skin tone and flatens surface and leaves skin smooth and soft can dry it up a bit though but overall i like this product one of the only proactive products i like

Pros:

works very well for a spot treatment, it reduced the size of my pimples. the really difficult pimples that just wouldn't go away went away and stayed away.

Cons:

the smell isn't very appealing the first few uses, the bottle says to only leave on for 10 minutes,commercial says overnight. overnight works, 10 does not. hard to wash off [easier to shower to wash it off so you don't irritate your skin]

a very good product, the best in the kit.

Pros:

really works

Cons:

if I miss a day, it all comes back

it's too expensive, I'm dealing with it now but I know there will reach a point where I won't pay that much anymore and I'll just quit use

Pros:

it works and i don't use it every day. every other day for me.. it smells oh so wonderful ;)

Cons:

it does REALLY work over night..

it works try it for 2 months. not 1 but 2 same for the whole system.. the first month its like this stuff doesnt work, you really have to use it consistently if your skin is bad. but it eventually will clear up.

Pros:

Got rid of almost all of my blackheads on my nose; saw those results after just one use. Dries out pimples well; saw that immediately as well.

Cons:

none

the refining mask is def the best product in that kid. the res of the stuff burns and dries out my skin but this step def works. i havent tried using overnight just yet but i will prob do so soon just to see if that makes much of a difference.

Pros:

I have all the kinds of acne- whiteheads, blackheads, cystic. Not severe, always changing. With proactive I hardly have any of them any more. My blackheads on my nose are still there but less and I only get the odd cystic pimple! It smells bad..

Cons:

The product does not smell pretty and I don't like the "auto re-order" even though you can call them and change how often the order is charged/sent.. I would rather re-order it myself when needed.

Overall, my skin is 110% better then it was. Not perfect, but who is right? I don't beleive my acne will ever go away with ANY product but it is undercontrol and managable. Proactive helped my skin feel beautiful instead of oily all the time! I would recomend this to any one that has tried every drugstore product like I have - It works alot better!!! I get the basic set sent every 4 months... You must sign up for "auto reorder" but I called and instead of every 3 months they switched it for me... I just make it last and it only costs me about 200 bucks a year to have glowing, clear skin!

Pros:

I love this, it totally takes the redness out of the blemishes on my face and i wake up every day feeling great

Cons:

cost

Honestly i swear by this mask, if i go one night without using it i worry that ill break out. This helps to dry out acne and also keeps the redness away.

Pros:

Takes away redness and shrinks the pimple...OVERNIGHT very very very very good for spot reatment The BEST.

Cons:

Um its hard to wash off! you should take a shower instead of washing it off over the sink it can irritate the pimple when you scrub it so I just take a shower that makes it work so well!

It just dries those pimples up!! I swear by this I do not like proactiv except for this item! *****
