Pros: Works for cystic acne Cons: Regimen is complicated, doesn't completely work on my hormonal outbreaks.
I have had acne since I was a teen, and cystic acne for 8 years (minus the one year I have been using Proactiv). These products have worked for me, now my skin is mostly clear with a few monthly hormonal breakouts. There are some flaws in this system ...

Pros: Moisturizing to some extent
Smell is pleasing Cons: BURNED after the first week
Made me break out more
Expensive
We've all been watching the almost heavenly infomercials for Proactiv for years now. Whenever you find yourself immersed in them on some random weekend, you start feeling so encouraged to buy it and experience the "wonders" of such a celebrity product. ...

Pros: Quantity lasted longer than they said. Cons: Made my acne and oil production worse.
After watching infomercials and demonstrations of this line of acne products for years, I decided to give it a try about a year ago. The last few years due to a medication I need to take, my skin has become a nightmare. I really was hoping this would ...

Pros: Gives your face a good texture. Buffs away dead skin cells well. Cons: I'm not sure if it works yet. So far no change in blemishes.
WHERE I FIRST MET PROACTIV I've seen this product on infomercials I can't even tell you how many times. I had good skin when I was younger and then my skin got bad. While seeing the results on TV and knowing a girl in real life who has used it for ...

Pros: The cleanser makes your skin feel very clean and fresh Cons: Didn't make any huge difference in my skin.
I tried this product about 3 or 4 years ago. I've always had a mild acne problem. My acne is not disfiguring, but nothing at all seems to help. I've even gone to a dermatologist, and he only made my skin way worse than it had ever been in my life. I ...

Pros: Very effective, fast results, skin feels super soft, Cons: Price is a little high. Can't try products without membership through company.
I have been using Proactiv 3 piece system for about a month now. I've experienced some great results. I have always had breakouts since I was 9 years old (puberty hit early). Most acne treatments that you can buy over the counter were too harsh for my ...

Pros: Very high quality products. Feels nice on your skin. Cons: Does not work as well as they say it does.
I'll admit it-I have really bad acne. I have the kind of acne that hurts...the really gross cystic acne. I have tried many products including Clean & Clear, Clearasil, Neutrogena, and the list goes on. I finally got with the program and got my sorry ...

Pros: it works!!; didn't dry out my skin; evens tone; clears skin completely Cons: a bit pricey;mail order only; small bottles
I can't even begin to describe this system. I absolutely love it. I'm 17 now, and have been dealing with acne since I was 12. In my early stages, it wasn't too bad. I would always have about 5 small blemishes on my face at one time, but it wasn't awful. ...

Pros: IT REALLY WORKS! Cheaper than going to a dermatologist who can't guarantee results anyway. Cons: At between 40-50 dollars could be expensive for some.
For the past ten years I have struggled with acne problems. If someone were to look in my waste basket they'd find a variety of "cures" and "treatments" for acne. These would include every product that CLEAN AND CLEAR and NUETRAGENA ever made, not to ...

Pros: It works Cons: Price, automatic shipping and charging, there are cheaper alternatives.
I have a weakness for infomercials. One day I was sitting by the T.V. watching the proactiv commercial and I was sucked right in. I had never had severe acne, just your basic teenage case - a big blemish once in a while and some little pimples. I ...

by nyc_modelchic , Nov 28 '03
Pros: The system works wonders. I use the cleanser and the lotion daily. Toner at night. Cons: I ran out of toner before my 2nd shipment. Use sparingly.
What can I say? ProActiv has been my mircle in a bottle. My career depends on my face. I am a model in NYC. In my industry there is no room for imperfections. I suffered from acne since I was a teenager. It probably didnt start getting worse until ...

Pros: Customer service is great, no problems with refund Cons: Didn't do the trick for me, made my acne worse
During my second pregnancy I began to suffer from acne. Throughout the pregnancy and subsequent year of nursing I dismissed it as part of the territory. After a couple years of this however, I became very self conscious about my condition and sought many ...

Pros: pleasant scent Cons: made skin worse
I ordered the solution system from the infomercial like most people. I was anxious to finally have my mild acne and skin imperfections finally clear up and even out. I've been using it for two weeks and I'm ready to return it. My skin has never been ...

Pros: They do all they can to make it easy to be ignorant and hopeful. Cons: Only works for those with mild acne, extremely overpriced for anyone regardless of acne severity.
This acne system has "marketing scheme" written all over it. What it is is a few of the popularly used acne medications, all extremely unconcentrated and watered down so that they can try and reach all markets. The people who claim to have benefited from ...

Pros: Gives you great skin for a couple of months. Cons: Quits working and makes things worse in the long run.
I had problems with moderate acne since I was 12 years old, and I am now 34. I have used every product known to man in order to try and control the problem, with little success. Proactiv began working very quickly, and within a couple of weeks, I had ...
