Proactiv Solution : Refining Mask

I got this with my proactiv kit. Proactiv didnt work but the mask is the best spot treatment. I use it almost every night!

This product has been my best buddy for a long time. It works great, it's fast and effective. I recommend using it after applying moisturizer, so that your skin doesn't dry up. Because I've learned that if my skin gets dry, I break out! But overall, I LOVE this stuff!

I don't use this on a regular basis. I mostly use it as a spot treatment to heal pimples overnight. When I do use it as a mask, it does a really great job of getting rid of oiliness, and it keeps my face pretty matte for a while. I definitely recommend it.

Proactiv hasn't really worked very well for me, even though I continue to use it because it at least manages my acne when it gets really bad. I have moderate acne, and incredibly dry skin. I use this after I've washed my face in the shower (I'm lazy) and then apply it. It also helps if you take a towel and run it under hot, but not burning water and wipe your face for a few minutes first to help wipe away anything that might still be on my face and open my pores. I use a fairly thick later over my entire face about 2-3 times a week (or more if I'm breaking out pretty bad or I'm feeling less lazy) and leave it on from 15-45 minutes. It says to leave on for 10-15 minutes but I feel that it works better if you leave it on for longer. I'm a zit-picker (which I know doesn't help, trying to break the habit lol), so if I've been picking at my face or have any red, inflamed areas, it takes it away. It really does calm your face down quite a bit. I feel like my skin is more even toned and I think it helps heal my zits quicker, because they seem to go away a few days after, rather than sticking around for a week. It does kinda dry your skin out after rinsing it off, but you're supposed to use the revitalizing toner right after which helps. Using a moisturizer also is useful after using this product. So basically, if I'm breaking out a lot or half a lot of inflammation, it helps. It doesn't completely clear my skin, but it makes it look better. I do recommend this product, even though it's pretty stinky lol.

I use it 2x a week,and as a overnight spot treatment.For me,I personally have cysts(pus filled),whiteheads and blackheads.This works good for whiteheads/cysts,and I also happen to have oily skin with large pores,so it helped minimize the appearance of my large pores,and it isn't over drying.I definitely recommend this to people with whiteheads,cysts or large pores.I got this in the $5.99 offer from ProActiv,so I got the whole set for $5.99

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

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

I would highly recommend it if you are willing to stick to the regimen.

It's really the only product that works for me, though even this stuff does not compleatly help. 2-3 times a week does not work for me, every other day didn't even work that well. I have to use it everyday. Though I've had the same amount of dryness from the 2 times a week as I have from the everyday. Though I've not making the product sound that great, I still gave it a 4/5, as it's the best thing I've used so far, and I can't be without it. Also, people on here complain about the smell, I never thought it was so bad. Kind of nice really. By the way, get it off ebay or Amazon, you can get it MUCH cheaper, and you don't have to deal with the HORRIBLE Proactiv website. Seriously, stay away from there.

I got this product and I am only 11. I do not have acne, but I do occasionally get a pimple. I hate it, so I put a dab of the mask on the clogged pore, and it is gone in somewhat of a short time. I am a fan of it.
