Proactiv Solution

Is it the right solution for you?

Proactiv is one of the leading acne treatments available right now for anyone suffering from acne. Proactiv claims to help people control and treat their acne through a simple three-step program. Many dermatologists suggest it to patients, and with all the commercials, famous celebrity representatives and claims, it's hard not to be drawn in.

You've probably heard the commercials... "I had such terrible acne I was afraid to go out in public. I tried everything, but Proactiv worked for me!" The product has been endorsed by many celebrities including Jessica Simpson, Kelly Clarkson, Lindsay Lohan, P. Diddy, and Vanessa Williams; but you'll never know whether or not it works for you until you've tried it yourself.

I've used proactiv for about 4 years now, and it does help. I
have pretty oily skin, and found the wash 2x a day was just to
harsh for me, so I use a make-up remover in the evenings, and the
proactiv exfoliation and lotion after that. Supposedly u can get
them to space out your shipments now, but back when I had the
subscription it was every 2 monthes and I ended up cancelling it
and using the left overs for like 2 years. Now I just buy them at
the mall kiosks. It's a little more expensive than buying online,
but I find I prefer it to having like 3 boxes of it sitting in the
cabinet.
I have really super sensitive skin and it works for me! I only use
it once a day though because it'll dry my skin out if I use it
more then once. (It recommends twice a day at first) I
occasionally get a pimple, but only if it's when I'm PMSing really
bad. Too much info, I know but it's the truth!
It made me break out more...and I never really broke out that bad.
Proactiv worked great for me in HS. I would love to get on it
again but like billysgirl1978 I don't keep up with using these
products. I can do it in the shower but other than that I just
don't remember or make the time like I should.
I use NoXacne, Love it:) works wounders.
Proactiv worked for me and I need to start using it again. I'm bad
about not washing my face with acne reducing products. I usually
just use Dove body wash.
Proactiv was really harsh my skin too. I'm still trying to find
the right balance in a product for sensitive skin and acne control
