it's a yes or no question, so please just say yes or no, and maybe a little comment, but not too big, if you can.. thanks a lot!
also, can you buy it without calling, and without an online order?? in other words, can you buy it at the mall of somewhere??

i have mild acne.. very light, and just on the forehead, but i don't want a single one. i cut down big time on the following: meat, chocolate, and some sodas. i also started eating fruits and citrus. it helped, but still, i want something direct. i don't have sensitive skin either.

NOPE! Topical treatments like Proactive only "kill" surface bacteria and, if you have moderate to severe acne, it won't even touch it-- the problem is coming from within the body (usually a build-up of harmful bacteria in the intestines). From what I know, you can only buy the product via phone or online, and the phone salespeople are PUSHY.

I have it and currently use it. It works very well and I reccomend it for you. It does not dry out skin because it has a lotion with it. You can watch on tv for one of the trial things where if you dont like it you can send it back. They require you to register and there is a fee. (being acne free is NOT cheap.) But, you do not have to recieve it every month. You can cancel after the first shipment of proactive has arrived.

I'll have to answer with both yes and no.
I used Proactive for about 2 years. It worked for about 6 months, but then it stopped working. It also dried out my skin. AND it's expensive! You can buy the generic Target brand and get the same results.
I have seen Proactive sold at one of those stands in the middle of the mall.
Hope that helps! :)

You can buy the products direct now at many malls where they have product kiosks.

No, not for my sister. The active ingredient in it benzoil peroxide is no different to products like Oxy which have been around for years, hence you're being ripped off. This product can only treat very mild cases and is not a miracle cure as portrayed on TV.

my friend has quite bad skin, she tried using proactive and it didnt work for her, she did find one product that worked for a little while, she bought it in priceline for like $20.00, so price isnt everything with these skin creams. Im not sure how she ordered the proactive cream, probably credit card order.
