Do NOT buy Proactiv! It's overpriced and you have to sign up for an auto-payment plan.
Your best bet is to get Acnefree or the new Neutrogena kit which says "better than Proactiv" right on it. Both are available at Target, Wal-Mart, etc. Make sure that when you use the products on your chest and back you wear a white shirt to bed - benzoyl peroxide can bleach fabrics. And don't use the repair lotion during the day unless you want to wear white.
The kits run $20 - $25 and are totally worth it.

I use Proactiv and here are my thoughts: * Don't like the smell either and don't like the fact that the cleanser doesn't lather like you'd expect a face cleanser to do so you never think it's actually cleaning but I guess it does! *Didn't like the normal face lotion that comes with the set. I found that it makes my oily skin even oilier so I use Dove face lotion instead and it's fine. *Other than those 2 negatives, I've found that it really does work. I stopped using it for a while and used store bought brands but I got pimples. So I went back to Proactiv and everything cleared up within a week.

I love it!! It works really well. I saw results in 2 days. My skin is super soft and It has a really great healthy color too it. It's still a little red sometimes and I do have a few pimples pop up occasionally here and there but nothing like a normal breakout. A little concealor and I'm good to go. They do run specials on it and you don't have to use much each time you wash so the bottles last a long time. I really love it! Everyone's skin is different though so you won't know if it works for you until you try it

I dont remember which kit I bought, it was so long ago. But it didnt work very well for me, it took about 11/2 weeks and my face cleared up slightly. I have always responded differently to acne medications though, the one that worked best was a prescription from my doctor.

I HAVE USED IT AND IT BROKE MY SKIN OUT TERRIBLE BUT I HAVE FOUND A PRODUCT THAT HAS WORKED SO GREAT WITH MY SKIN IT IS ARBONNE CLEAR ADVANTAGE SKIN CARE. I USED TO BREAK OUT ESPECIALLY WHERE I PUT THE PHONE UP TO MY FACE. THERE IS A 45 DAY PRODUCT RETURN IF YOU DO NOT START TO SEE RESULTS. TAKE A LOOK AT MY SITE AT MYLADYBEAU.MYARBONNE.COM, EVERYTHING IS ALL NATURAL AND YOU DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT IT BURNING YOUR FACE WHEN YOU APPLY. ALSO THERE ARE SKIN SUPPLIMENTS THAT CAN BE TAKEN FOR THE BODY ALL NATURAL. REASON IM TELLING YOU THIS IS BECAUSE I USED PROACTIVE AND IT DIDNT WORK BUT BURNED TOO. I WAS INTRODUCED TO THESE PRODUCTS FROM A SALON I WENT TO AND A FRIEND INVITED ME TO SHARE IT WITH OTHERS. GOOD LUCK, ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE ASK

I bought the one off the t.v, but i bought it in the mall because its cheaper
basically, i think i have like different type of skin cause everyone else who has used it said it works well
but for me it did nothing
but really all it says it to use it 3 times a day and you really have to use like more like 10 times a day
its really a lot of work but its worth it for the beauty
it takes about a month to work like any other skin medication, (this is cause i have a dermatologist)
good luck =D

it works well with people who have little acne problems.
couple week ago my dad order proactive for me and my cousin.
he ordered the full kit for 19.99 without the monthly plan.
it works wonders for me, my face clear out the next day.
and it worked for my cousin. but really can`t see the result as much.

I used it and it didn't work any better or worse than anything else out there. If you want to spend a lot of money on something for acne, go to a dermatologist. They can give you prescriptions creams and gels that kick butt!

i had the cleanser toner and moisturiser
i used it for about a week and stopped
because my skin started peeling because its really strong
it would be really hard to do it on your back
you should try it coz it might work for you
everyone has different results
