Proactiv Solution

This is NOT a good product. Ive been using Proactiv for months and nothing has seemed to decreased. It was a waste of money. There also is too many steps in this and I didn't even get any results. The bottles the cream comes in is not even filled up all the way. Mine was about 3/4 filled up. The is NOT an awesome product.

I used this product for 2 days with minimal dryness and itching. On the third day, I woke up and my entire face was swollen including my eyelids! 48 hours later (not using the products) and my face is still very swollen, red and feels like sandpaper. Many people are allergic to this so be very careful! It is a horrible feeling!!

My skin definitely improved within a couple of months of using this product. But I do think it's really important to use all three products everyday and not skip a step of the process.

The only annoying thing is the small amount of repairing lotion you get, I always run out before I've finished using the face wash and toner and have to get a whole new set.

Hi All,

I know they say proactiv is so great and they have some testimonials and some celebrities endorsing it... guess what they all are getting paid to do so... before I started using this product my skin had blemishes, and no pimple what so ever... I ordered this cheap product and within 2 days my cheeks were full of pimple :(... very very disappointed...I would not recommend this product.

I have tried Proactive twice - once as a teenager and then again in my late 20s. The first time I used Proactive it made the sides of my nose itch horribly and failed to clear my skin. After using every last drop of Proactive, my acne issues were still apparent. I decided to try again over a decade later since my acne had gradually worsened, hoping it would be successful after a second try. Boy was I WRONG!!! Not only did my acne stick around, but I actually lost pigment on my cheeks. This hypo-pigmentation caused me to suffer 3rd degree burns after enjoying a day outside at the pool, even after applying SPF70 sunscreen every hour!! I had blisters for a couple weeks afterwards, not to mention horrible white patches on my face once the inflammation went away...I am hispanic-mixed and these marks were VERY obvious and had to purchase tattoo coverup makeup since they showed thru layers of regular liquid and powder foundation. I went to see 2 dermatologists and an allergist to help me get back on track which they were unable to do. Thankfully my face has healed on its own and turned back to its normal color - almost 2 years later.

Just because you can buy this product without a prescription does not make it safe to use. And, to think it was so EXPENSIVE, it sure did not honor its intended purpose. I feel this product deserves a "zero" star rating; however, I was not able to post without selecting a star. I would NEVER recommend Proactive to ANYONE.

Solution Proactive has caused me to have an allergic reaction. I purchased Proactive on a Saturday. By Sunday evening my eye's were swollen and my face was bright red and itchy. I am allergic to this product and would definatley recommed a spot test prior to putting this product all over your face.

This product works best for those like me, who always have spots on their face, because it helps clear your entire face when used as a daily skin treatment that helps clear existing and future breakouts. If you just get the odd spot, your better off getting one of those spotting treatments that targets one pimple at a time.I also wouldn't recommend it for those with sensitive skin, as it is too harsh.overall, It worked great for me, My skin feels smoother than it has for ages.

After using proactive for about six months....I noticed that my skin on my face is much darker than the rest of my skin. I'm still trying to correct this.

I never really had really bad acne but i had enough to get proactive...the first day i used it my face felt clean! It didn't take long at all (not even a week) for my pimples to start to disappear but right after that same week my face broke out way more than it ever has! It got really gross! So i stopped using it and my face went back to its normal acne ways... i had froze my account and forgot about it so a few months later another proactive box was at my door and at this time i was in my first semester of college and my stress was so high i was breaking out so much i tried it again making sure i used it right! once again the first few days my face looked clear then it got EVEN WORSE its my fault i should have known.

Great product. Totaly rejuvenates your skin. Makes it so soft, just like a babies skin, after using it, once, it already started to work. I love the toner to, cause I have an oily face so it helps remove oil. It may be expensive, but it works better and faster then any thing in stores! Also, for anybody with sensitive skin who tried it, it said on not recommended for sensitive skin, because it is a little to harsh for that type of skin. Great product !
