Cons:
Not effective
This is my third time using Proactiv Solution. The first time I used Proactiv was for roughly 2 months. At first, I broke out in areas that I had never had acne in. Which was a downside, but I thought that I should be optimistic and try a little bit longer, but no improvements were made. So I stopped.
The second time I was reintroduced to Proactiv, I only used it for a month or so.
The third time I used it was this summer because I had a friend who swore by it. So my boyfriend I thought that we should give it a try, again. Now, I have been using it for a little over 3 months and I have acne like never before.
My skin was actually clear before I used it for the third time. Now, I have pimple everywhere.
I should have learned from my mistakes. Stupid me. I am only to blame.
As for my boyfriend, he has seen no improvement what so ever. There are time when he would not use it for 2 weeks or more and there is no difference.
Don't use it.

I had mild acne but I wanted to have clear skin like the commercial. I noticed after a week my neck would itch and burn really bad. On week 3 of using the Proactiv I develope a rash all over my neck. I went to the doctor and I was advised to stop using the product. Once I stopped that rash gradually went away.
Pros:
None
