Answer 2

Mostly.

One of my friends with pretty mild acne used it and it cleared up her skin perfectly. Another friend with somewhat severe acne used it and it didn't really do much.

I have some acne, so I gave it a try. I like it a lot better than anything else I've used, although it doesn't get rid of everything. I would say it's definately worth a try.

Some tips:
Don't use Proactive twice a day - it dries your skin a lot. Try a mild cleanser in the morning and Proactive at night.

Using a scrub, like St. Ive's Apricot scrub, once or twice a week helps remove the dry skin.

Proactive actually lasts longer than the 2 months it says it does. When I first got it, I thought it wouldn't even last one month, but as long as you don't waste it by using too much, it lasts for quite a while.

Overall, I would go ahead and try it out. Everyone's skin is different but it's worth a shot. Good luck!

Answer 3

It worked for a week when I used it. Everything came back after that.

I had the same problem. First of all I tried pro-active and it dried my skin out too. The one thing I learned was that I was doing too much to my skin. Scrubbing and witch hazel was too harsh and actually irritated my face by how often I used it...daily. I changed my BareMinerals make-up to Almay foundation because the powdery natural make-up infected my break outs, so it would never heal and clear up. I wash my face daily with Olay face wash and then use clean and clear daily Pore Cleanser. Every other day or twice a week, I use Olay toner and Olay Exfoliating Scrub, and follow up with Olay Moisture Cream.

It seems like a lot of products, but you have no idea how little it is. I see very few break outs. Maybe one itty bitty blemish every other day.

I hope it works for you!

Answer 4

depends on the cause of your acne, the active ingredient in proactive is benzoyl peroxide which is meant for bacterial break outs. if your acne has another cause it might not work. if you try it and it doesn't work try DDF salicylic face wash and Peter Thomas Roth Glycolic pads the salicylic cleans the pores of any dirt and oil and the glycolic smooths the surface. i would steer clear of any face scrubs if your problem is bacterial a scrub could help spread the bacteria.

Answer 6

yeah it does.
First it opens your pours to get all the dukie out then it closes them and prevents future breakouts.
