Proactiv Does work yes, i've been using it for a while now and when i do floolw the system correctly it works for me. Try topical treatments like Clearsil, Noxema, things like that to zap your zits look for products with either salisylic Acid, or Benzoyl Peroxide, however if your skin IS sensitive i do recommend Benzoyl Peroxide over the other, as it tends to be a bit more gentle.

My sister had acne as a teen and as an adult and she used everything including Proactiv. She found that it was very drying to her skin and did not minimize her pores like she was hoping. She finally found a product called Clear Advantage which has worked wonders for her while not drying her skin or causing it to be over-oily and also minimizes her pores. The set comes with vitamins that help nourish your skin from the inside and the supplements are vegan and kosher compatible! If you want to know where she got it you can email me at everydayhealthnaturally@gmail

i use proactiv....umm let's see....for me it worked really well for the first few weeks...but now it's been kinda ehh. i have more acne on my chin than i ever have before...i know i'm using it correctly and once in the morning and once at night...idk what i'm doing wrong...but i think those commercials are retarded...they show the people's after photos when they have absolutely no acne and not when they have it. i use proactiv and still have some acne occasionally.....idk i hope it works for you.

i found that the proactiv 3 step system did nothing for me.
but the facial mask they send as your "free gift" does work very well but i think that it is over priced.
