Answer 2

I have used ProActiv, and I can tell you that it is one of the best acne medication out there. If all the products are used properly, you will be sure to get the results you're looking for. The chemicals aren't too harsh on your face. I can't say enough about how well it works. I hope I was of some help, I hope you have a good experience with ProActiv.

Answer 3

ProAcvtiv Works. I have combination skin. I usually get pimples around my chin, jaw, and forehead. When I use proactiv, it seems to keep my pimples under control. My brother, who has really bad oily skin, uses it too. Before ProActiv, he was really self conscious about his appearance. Now, he still has a few pimples, but NOTHING like before ProActiv. Some medications work, and some don't. It just depends upon your skin. Since different people have different skin, they will also see different results. You never know if it will work for you until you have tried it. Good Luck!

ProActiv prob works for some ppl and not others. I personally don't find that it works at all for me. The products are nice but I still have acne...I've been using them for about 3 months now...and I haven't noticed any difference. The facial wash is really nice and has exfoliating beads in it....feels good but like I said, don't help w/my acne...but I don't have a bunch either...I just get 2 or 3 pimples now and there...

Answer 5

i have used proactive for about 4 years and i LOVE it!!! the only major breakout i've had is when my aunt died 2 years ago, due to stress, crazy emotions, and lack of sleep.

i use proactiv twice a day, get about 8-9hrs of sleep every night, drink LOTS of water...my face is SO incredibly clear.

it all depends on your case. if u have really bad acne, call and get the extra strength formula. that'll clear it up. but also might dry your skin out. it dried mine out...but it was clear!!!

they also have many other products...check those out too!!! i'm a HUGE proactiv fan!!!

Answer 6

I struggled with acne for years and I finally found the solution that works for me. We have been fooled, tricked, deceived, and just plain lied to. It's time that someone put a stop to it, and everyone learn the truth!

Those of us who suffer from acne have usually been given 2 choices and neither of them work:

1. Over the counter remedies such as cleansers, creams, ointments, etc. These things have been proven over and over again not to work. Why? It does not address the root cause of the problem.

2. Go see a doctor and or dermatologist. They will generally prescribe prescription drugs which include topicals and or antibiotics. This, too, has been proven over and over again not to work. Why? It does not address the root cause of the problem.

I found a step-by-step program that cured my acne and it has never come back. It is amazing and doesn’t use any drugs or doctors. The truth is that acne can be cured…if we know the secret the doctors and drug companies don’t want us to know.

There is a great website: http://cure-my-acne.info/3daycure/ that has all the details. I really suggest you check it out and see if it works as well for you as it did for me.

Answer 7

I know so many people who use this me included and it worked great for them all. And all of them dont use it any more and now their face is clear. You need to just try it to see if it will work for you. The majority of people will say it works, there are a few who say it wont, but all you can do is try it, try the 30 day trial three step one. And slowly get your skin used to it first thats what i did, i started doing it once every second day for a week than once every day. My bf and his brother did this and once it got cleared up they slowly went off of it, using it every other day to every thrid day to once a week, and now they dont use it. You can than get the mask or spot treatment and use it after if you get the ocassional spot to dry it up. But if you are really getting sick of your acne and you want to try somthing use proactive and see for youself. You will most likely LOVE it!

Answer 8

It REALLY works. I highly recommend it. It's definitely worth the money. I've never found another product that was so effective. And if you don't like it they will refund you, so you really have nothing to lose.

A tip: When you first start using it, I would recommend using the products sparingly until your skin gets used to it.

Answer 9

Answer 10

PLease dont use this. It is too strong/harsh and will, in the long run, mess up or skin.
