Overated

So i bought myself a set of the treatment. At first i was amazed by how celebrities and actual human being's like us who suffers from acne are raving about how awesome this is. So i gave it a try. It has those beads that exfoliates the skin and it tingles cause of the benzoyl peroxide. It did manage to clear my skin but only up to 2 months! Then it stopped working ENTIRELY! Extreme warning if you ...read morehave sensitivity issues using Benzoyl Peroxide. Dont use this!. i wasted money buying this and to find that my skin has now being worsen by its harsh content. Moral of the story. Dont buy products that are claimed to work by celebs and users. Search for something based on your skin type and sensitivity.

different

i used to use proactive back in high school and it worked great! then it got too $$ and no one wanted to buy it for me anymore and i could not afford it anymore so i stopped. so i stopped using it for about a year and half and decided to go back on because i was breaking out again. i bought it recently and noticed that they have a new and improved formula for proactive. its not the same anymore...read more, it comes in a smaller package and the texture of how the products feel is a lot different than before. the only thing that is the same is the refining mask.

useless

personally, i hate proactiv... i'm 16 and have acne-prone skin, in the beginning, proactiv reduced the strength of my breakouts but never really "cleared" my skin, then after a while it stopped working all together. also, i ended up with more blackheads after i started using this than i ever have in the past. maybe it will work for adults since the celebs that endorse it are adults, but then the...read morey should stop putting their ads in magizines like 17 and during shows like glee. i know several other teens who have tried it and had no better results than i did.

works great for me

I have been using the three step system on and off for a few years now and have found that this is the best system for my skin. Any time I have tried to stop using it I have started to break out again. I can definitly tell a difference when using this, I had problems with my skin for years and love this results I got with this product.

Best for bad acne - but strong and will bleach collars and towels

After years of dermatologist treatments: Retin-A, Tetracycline, 2 courses of Accutane, Minocin, I finally found this trio-cleanser, toner, lotion, and it slowly cleared my skin and made my skin radiant. This product is a white, thin lotion that has scrubbing beads in it. I found I got better results when I scrubbed lightly for at least a minute, adding water as I dried out. Use it sparingly-a ...read moredime size on your hand. It is now too strong for me, as I'm 39, but I recommend it greatly for younger folks with acne. It smells great too. Luxurious quality compared to drug store brands. I always had 1 or two pimples left, but not bad. A full kit is about $60 but it lasts like 2 months when you use it properly and the one doctor-prescribed medicine I used was $100 a month, so it's worth it.

Love it

I have very bad acne and sensitive skin. I gave Proactive a try and it really works well on my skin. Doesn't cause dryness or any irritation. I use the renewing cleanser morning and night. Really gets my acne under control. I still get my "monthly" breakouts but other than that my skin is so much better and feels even cleaner. Proactiv is a keeper in my book.

yuck!

I tried the "new" proactive solution recently and had a HORRIBLE experience. Not only is it expensive, but gave me a terrible reaction. My face looked like I had been sunburnt, but if you got close it was like a had a billion tiny red dots on my face. Two days after I discontinued use of this product, the redness disappeared. Whenever I washed my face with this cleanser, the exfoliant was too ...read moreharsh. It felt like I was scrubbing my face with tiny sharp rocks. I would recommend a product like Neutrogena or Biore from a drug store over this any day. It would work the same or better and cost you a quarter of the price!!!
