I can tell you a thing or 2 BOUT ACNE, i HAD BEEN STRUGLING WITH ACNE FOR OVER 9 YEARS AND HAVE TRIED EVERYTHING. Remember that everybody has different reactions to treatments and well proactive is done by actros, actresses and singers, i should've never trusted that, but i did and it di not work with me.... A deep-cleaning wash that unclogs pores, while keeping outbreaks under control with acne-fighting salicylic acid that prevents new blemishes, without drying skin. Peppermint helps to open your pores and allows them to be cleansed from the inside. This means pores appear to be smaller, giving you a more youthful appearance.
I found this line of products that have worked great with me, they are just wonderful. they are called arbonne, The best form ARBONNE is that they are botanically based and the products are formulatted without mineral oil and without animal products. Mineral oil is the 2nd worse thing for the health of your skin the 1st thing would be the sun. Animal products come from Rendering Plants and they pick dead animals and they put it in a huge pot and smash everything down and boil it and the oil that comes up is what other companies use to formulate their makeup (eww the lipsticks), gross i know) and skin care products. I found this site and it has helped my family and my friends. They have a variety of products for everybody..... try it, you have nothing to loose, only acne;) they have a 45 day money back guarantee....even if the product is finished so there you go,!!! http://arbonnepuertorico.myarbonne.com and go under shop online, they are not sold in stores but they are just amazing....
• Peak acne years are 14–17 in females and 16–19 in males. As many as 40% of females and 35% of males are affected during these years.
• Keep your hands to yourself …
touching skin encourages the spread of bacteria and excess oils, leading to breakouts.
• Excessive cleansing and scrubbing can make acne worse.

Some products don't work for everyone but I think Proactiv is one of the better ones out there. I know someone who had bad acne and once they started using Proactiv, their skin cleared up really well. It's not that expensive so you should at least try it and see if it works for your skin.

I have personaly used Proactive and it dose work but if you want to save some money, then i would use acne free. They both work the same, (from exp.)its just one is a brand name and the other is not.

i know about five people who have used proactive and it WORKS! it is amazing. my friend had major acne and she broke out a lot. it really helped her with her skin. her confidence has skyrocketed and she looks great. i have never tried it, but I'm going to receive some in the mail soon. you just have to remember to wash your face 2x a day w/ this stuff. you should use it. i highly recommend it.

i use it, and it works. You just have to use frequently, Like the face wash, use everytime you take a shower. And the lotion, use it instead or regular lotion. I had an allergic reaction to blush, and i had not been able to get rid of the pimples. But, ever since i started using it, about a month ago, my face has cleared out, and i don't brake out anymore. I still need to apply lotion for the redness, but, i don't flare up anymore. So, to answer your question, yes, it does work!

I tried it anyway and I'm very happy with the results :o)

A co-worker of mine uses pro-active and she looks great as far as not having acne.
So I would say it works.
