Pros:

works good maybe not the best thing but i would still recommend it

Cons:

It takes time for my skin to clear out with the mask.I only use the mask from Proactiv because i had a bad experience with the rest of the kit

depending on your skin it will work perfectly fine.

Pros:

It works. The only thing that has ever worked for me. Tried the whole kit. The rest of the kit sucks - burned and wrinkled my skin.

Cons:

Have to order online. Apply leave on 15 mins as directed then wipe off with warm water. Face is beautiful after but keep away from eye area.

I use it three times a week for maintenance. I have never had anything else worked. I have had acne for over 15 years and have tried everything. This is the only stuff that I would recommend.

Pros:

Works Quickly! I always recieve it for free with my 3-Step system. It last a very long time.

Cons:

The smell reminds me of diaper cream, but it's sulfer, so what can you expect. I can put up with the smell for the job it does!

It's a saving grace! It works overnight to rid of large pimples. Even when I "feel one coming", it's gone the very next morning.

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:

Doesn't dry out skin, works well as an overnight mask

Cons:

A bit expensive, and such a little amount.

This product, although very expensive, is the only overnight mask that doesnt dry out my skin and actually works. I love it!

Pros:

Seemed to dry out acne at first

Cons:

Stopped working after about a week. May have had a weird allergic reaction to it.

Used it for several weeks as an all over mask, and a spot treatment. Then one night after usings it as a mask and leaving it on in the bath for about 30 miuntes, I noticed that I seem to get a weird dizzy feeling, head spinning, and racing heartbeat. I actually ended up having to go to the ER. They ran test but everything was normal, but at the time it didn't even cross my mind to mention using the mask just 30-45 minutes before having to go to the hospital. I didn't make the connection until a week later when it happened again. I thought maybe it was just this product, but I also got the same reaction from using Bye Bye Blemish, which also uses sulfer. I'm wondering if anyone else has had a reaction to acne products containing sulfur? (P.S. The ProActiv cleanser and repair lotion kept my skin clear for almost 8 years!)

Pros:

Clears up pimples even the painful under the skin type. My face is also red and after the mask it looks so much more even and brighter.

Cons:

Have to order it online and its expensive. But doc prescribed the same thing and it was 125.00. so the price doesnt seem that bad compared to that

I love it. Wish I could get it at local store. Would recommend it.

Cons:

Pros:

Simply amazing. My nerdy doesn't like ever wash his face and one day I asked if I could use that mask thingy. I put it on for about an hour and then the next day my blackheads where gone. He said I could have it.

Cons:

I have both really dry and really oily skin, so since it dries my already dry part (forehead and cheeks) get dryer, but i got my moisturizer so its all good.

Amazing product, my buddy's mom buys him a thing of Proactiv 3 step ever 3 months and he just hands it to me so I get it at a good price. You can get it for like $20 bucks, so do it.
