Pros:

Works well to dry out the over abundant oils in your "T" Zone! The refining mask zaps the acne immediately.

Cons:

Refining mask Smells but thats a small price for beautiful skin. Lotion bleaches the towels but that b/c it has BENZOYL PEROXIDE...DUH..use white towels....simple solution!

I have been using this for over 5 months and it does work from time to time but with little to no results and sometimes it just feels like it stops working

Pros:

it is the only product i have ever tried that has actually worked. i dont break out very often anymore but a very thin mask followed by the lightest moisturizer you can find on the night of the first signs and after a day its gone and another break o

Cons:

terribly expensive, funky smell too but its better than the complere sulfur rotten egg experience, thats a hard smell to combat. and i so wish i came in a bigger quantity.

you dont need a lot, litterally. used as a mask combined with a very sensitive cleanser and moisturizer and this is your best friend for life.

Pros:

*It works sometimes, but it usually doesnt help my acne, or it sometimes make my acne worse!!!

Cons:

*can be hard to wash off your face
*extremely drying

This product does work, but then other times it doesn't work Its drying But, if you have not tried proactiv or this refining mask, I recommend you give it a try, even if it does not work for you, at least you can say you've expirenced it. I give it 3 out of 5, Some days I love this mask, other days....forget about it !!

Pros:

Somewhat dried out your pimple, bringing all the white stuff in your pimple to the top so it was easy to pop.

Cons:

You might need to use it more than once in a row to actually make it dissapear.

Somewhat worked for me, could work for you

Pros:

Really helps reduce swelling and a oily skin.

Cons:

Kind of hard to wash off if left on over night since its sulfer and it gets real hard and it smells pretty bad.

Its a great product to try out, I wouldn't really recommend any of the other proactive products except this one. Read the ingredients before usage in case of an allergic reaction.

Pros:

-Helped with initial breakouts.

Cons:

-Left hyperpigmented marks after acne/pimples are gone.
-Dryness

Ordered it with the Proactiv solution and tried it first by applying it for a few minutes. Continued with no results. Eventually tried leaving on overnight, caused pimples to dry up and are usually gone within 2 days. However, left redmarks.
