I just got Proactiv, but my friend told me if you stop using Proactiv for like three days you will start to break out really bad because you have to have Proactiv.
Is this true?

I didn't find that to be true when I used it. I might get a pimple or two but I didn't break out really bad.

I used proactiv for a little while because I felt like I had large pores on my face around my cheeks and nose. I've never had acne, but when I stopped using it, all of a sudden I had little pimples everywhere and it took like a few weeks for my skin to get back to normal.

I use my proactive twice a week, if I use it every day I tend to break out because my skin gets too dry. I have used for years this way and get compliments on my skin at least once a day.

its not really bad. It is because your skin is used to being clean and when you stop the oil and dirt start to build up. Just using once a day will help better than nothing.

I used to use proactive.
I used it for about two months.
Then I just stopped haha
I didnt break out or anything. I was fine.
But it also might just depend on your face condition...

um....it depnds on your skin. if u have really oilly skin then u mite want to keep using it or switch to another ance cleanser. if u don't have really oily skin then u can keep using it if u want to but i still think it depends on your skin. um...oh! and if you've been using it for a long time then your face mite have to rely on it.
