I saw the commercial, plenty of stars used it. But commercials are made to help sell the products.
And is it used only for severe acnee forms?
Is it really that good or better than other great names in skincare?
If you tried it pls let me know and the effects it had.

I am trying to keep people away from Proactive as much as possible! Listen to me loud and clear, IT WILL WORK AT FIRST BUT IT WILL STOP AS SOON AS YOU STOP USING IT!!!! It made my life a living hell! I was so happy when I first bought it, but I was at my cousin's for a sleepover, and didn't put it on ONE DAY and GUESS WHAT? The next day I had three HUGE zits. It was digusting and embarassing! So i started researching the product ALOT and learned that once you stop using it, it will not work. You have to use it forever and that it just STUPID!! The girl above, ZAMEERA, gives AMAZING ADVICE!! If I were you, I suggest you use it! The Carley's Smooth and Clear Products ARE AMAZING!!! They never had a NEGATIVE FEEDBACK EVER!!!!!!!! It's truly amazing and less expensive than the stupid Proactive!
Good Luck! Hope you make the right choice!! :)

The first time I used it..I was mainly using it for a skin regimen, but the second time around I was using it for some breakouts, and it made my skin worse.
All I can say is research it first..cos out there on the internet youll find people who had negative reactions to it, and considering it cost a pretty penny, dont do what I did..cos now all the products just sit in the bathroom collecting dust.
A really neat site for finding out just about anything on skin is acne.org

YES, i was sceptical at first so i decided to buy it and still use it
it just makes your face sooooo soft after using it
although sometimes i think it makes my skin a lil whiter using it but i could be imagining this
im 31 and think its great to use (and it stops the odd pimple here and there)
yes they advertise for those with severe acne but people without it use it as their normal skincare routine - such as myself.
try it .. it has a money back guarantee 30 days i think
Im in Australia and see all those infomercials with the US stars but the stars didnt sell me the product .. the whole idea behind it did.
give it a go :)

Yes Proactiv work AT FIRST & it will stop working once you stop using it! You must keep using Proactiv for the rest of your life (which WILL make you bankrupt) in order to make the acne don't come back!! For some people, even if they keep using it, acne will come back! This time it's even WORST!!
Here's a sample testimonial I found..
"Unfortunately it didn’t last, after about 14 months of use, my acne suddenly re-appeared and this time, worse than it was before the use of Proactive!! I now use the DKR system! The price is insane, but as mentioned, if it works at keeping you clean"

You've got to try Carley's Clear & Smooth!! If you have severe acne, try their Industrial Strength Formula (specially made for teens) but if you have mild acne, try their Original Formula (for people who has bumpy skin, all types of acne, keratosis pilaris or just looking for a skin improvement). You can only get these online! Not sold in stores! They have a life time guarantee!! You can get a refund at any time after purchasing it if you don't like it! You'll love it cuz it's CHEAP!

I personally have not used it.. But my best friend has for a couple of years now and her face has not had a break out since about a couple of months since she started using it. She used to have bad acne, not now..
