goes quick
i like the old formula better than the one they have now. it absorbs into the cotton pad and isnt as strong as it used to be. they cut the price, the bottles and maybe the ingredients. not saying its not a good product, just that its not as great anymore. and you need more than the bottle to finish equally with the whole set. i need about a bottle and half to complete the set with the wash and lotion.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Loved
I used this and it cleared up my skin, as part of the 3 step process. It smells great, is not drying, and has glycolic acid which exfoliates. A tip for guys: since a cotton ball will get caught in your beard area (and i dont have a beard i just mean where hair grows), either spash it on like an aftershave or wet a small corner of a washcloth and smooth that over your skin. I do the latter. Good stuff! It's too strong for me now that I'm 39, but I recommend it for younger skin.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 2 of 2 people said helpful

Fabulous!
Love this product. In fact the toner is the first to go in my proactiv kit. Goes on easy using a cotton ball or cotton round. Takes the dirt off with ease. I use the toner in the morning before my shower. Really leaves my skin feeling clean.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Don't use if you have sensitive skin
This is NOT a product for people with sensitive skin-- I used it and it made my face swell up and turn red and feel tender, itchy, and hurt.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Soothing, effective, but a little overpriced
So as part of the system this toner is my favorite part. It's soothing, mildly moisturizing and effective in controlling excess oil and unclogging pores. My only complaint is that the Proactiv system is incredibly overpriced for the products you get (not to mention hard to get) because the ingredients are pretty basic. I generally buy the store brand system at Meijer (if you're near one) which...read more is the same ingredients and products and just as effective but about a quarter of the price.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

Beware!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I had used the three step kit 3 years ago for about 1 year after getting a severe break-out that would not go away. The kit worked at clearing my acne so I stopped using it after being acne free for a while. Something must have triggered my skin because the same severe acne came back. I started using the proactive kit again, now with the new formula. This time, there was no improvement in my a...read morecne and I now have acne marks (something I never used to get). What's more, my skin began itching like crazy from the moment I started using it. I kept at it for 2-3 months to see if it would improve, which it did not, and had to stop when I woke up one day with my face and eyes RED and my eyes were swollen to the point I could not see. I don't know if this is because of the new formula, but BEWARE before buying!!!!!This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful

A nice, non-drying product
I first used Proactiv several years ago, but only used the 3-piece system, and had to quit when, even using it every other day, I was flaking and peeling because of the repairing lotion. It was just too drying. Fast forward to a couple years ago (I'm in my early 30's by the way) when due to some health issues my skin started breaking out again. Nothing was working and it just kept getting worse - ...read moredull complexion, scarring acne, etc. - so I thought I'd try Proactiv again. This time I went with the 4-piece system with oil-free moisturizer, and for the past 2+ years, I've had no problems. Every once in a while I take a couple-week break, but I notice a difference if I let it go too long. This isn't my favorite Proactiv product, but I think it's an integral part of the system, because if I don't use it, the BP in the cleanser and repairing lotion is too strong. The toner doesn't seem to dry my skin, but prepares it nicely for the repairing lotion and moisturizer. In fact, it dries so slowly, that it's the first thing I do out of the shower: put on the toner, and then let it dry while I use lotion on the rest of my body and put deodorant. As with the other products, a little goes a very long way; it takes me months to get through one bottle. It feels good, the smell isn't unpleasant, and it's a nice in-between step before putting on the repairing lotion.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 0 of 0 people said helpful
