This product worked very well for me on the first try, maybe my skin got use to the products because
It didn't work as well for me on my second try.

I've tried this line and found it didn't work for me. I have very sensitive skin and after using this product found my skin to get worse. Had to stop after a week. I know lots of people that it has worked for, wish I was one of them.

If you buy proactiv you need to see which products work for you. You do not have to use every product in the line! It can be very drying if you do so. I have found that the daily cleanser and the scrub work very well for me but I use the scrub every other day to keep my skin exfoliated. It is like the only product I have found that actually keeps my acne under control. As for the ph level of your skin. . .after washing, apply your choice of toner which will balance fhe ph levels of your skin back out. After toner dries, apply your choice of non comodegenic moisturizer preferably for sensitive skin as tgis will be less irritating.
Whether or not proactiv works for you is really dependent upon your type of acne and how much effort you put in to finding out which of the products in its line works best for you. It is a hit or miss for some. I would definitely recommend this product though.

Proactiv Solution Kit - I wanted to love it very badly. However, this stuff dried out my skin and made my skin tight and flaky. This stuff made me break out further sadly. :( I won't be repurchasing this stuff or recommend it.

I bought this hoping to clear up my skin. Instead I ended up getting burns all over my face for weeks! That kit stung when I applied it & it made my face so unbelievably itchy, flakey, and bright red. I felt so hot on my face I had to ice my face just to feel comfortable. I was only using 1 very gentle application per day and I only used a little of the product. I stuck it out in pain for 2 weeks but the feel and look of my red flakey skin only got worse and my acne stayed the same. Even after telling the company about my reaction they refused to cancel my next automatic order and sent me more crap that I will never use. They have bad products and terrible 'customer service'

Whether or not Proactiv works for you depends on your skin and your type of acne. For my husband and his mom it worked really well. For me, it was just too drying for my combination skin. Even after cutting back on the benzoyl peroxide solutions, I found it to make my skin red and I didn't see it working any better for the minimal amount of pimples I had over any other more reasonably priced acne solution.

If you are completely covered in pimples and losing hope, I say give this a try. If you just have the occasional pimple or maybe just one spot that always seems to get pimples, I recommend just buying benzoyl peroxide by itself and using that as a spot treatment. It will work just as good as Proactiv. Use it in combination with a wash or cream that has Salicyic acid.

It also comes down to the price and size of containers. They don't last long if you use them as directed and the price is just way too steep for the average person. Maybe that's why all the endorsers are celebrities. They can afford to spend this much on their skin care.

I do not care for proactive, It leaves my sink feeling too dry and seems to make any outbreaks I have worse, Or brings them on faster. I have used it on and off every time telling me self this time it will work and it just does not in my case.

Proactiv was definitely a solution to my acne. It cleared everything up the way it said it would and my skin looked good. Only problem? My skin became addicted to it--if I skipped a wash or tried to use something else, my skin totally rejected the change. Another issue I had--the effects of the sun on my face. Every time I went into the sun I would want to hide because I knew Proactiv contained bleach and it could not be exposed to sunlight without bleaching my face. It also threw off the PH balance of my skin. I had dry skin before using Proactiv but as I continued to use it, the oilier and drier my skin became. I had no idea what to put on my face (for moisturizer or makeup, etc) because of this tricky new combination. Overall, Proactiv did clear my acne but I am glad I made the switch (after trying hundreds of different treatments) to Arbonne. Arbonne is about the same price but it is actually good for your skin, without all the harsh chemicals. It helped balance out my skin's natural PH so I don't have the same struggle with crazy skin combinations! The best part--I don't even have to use an acne line with Arbonne! So, in the end, its up to you and what you are willing to try to clear up your acne.

I love proactiv, it leaves my skin smooth and the new proactiv moisturizing products keep it hydrated. I have had problems with acne for 8 years, and haven't found a product to prevent/treat my acne until I started with proactiv. I feel like the ad promises. I am more confident, and wear less make up! Two thumbs up!

I never had acne in high school. After having two children, I have crazy hormonal and oily skin. Now I battle bad t-zone acne and breakouts. I have tried a lot of home remedies & products before I tried this set. The rest never worked for me. I have read a lot of negative reviews on the product. Despite all of them, i gave the system a shot, and am still continuing with the product!

Theres things I LOVE, and things that I dislike.

LOVE: with consistent use, it clears my skin up well
Dislike: If I stop using it, i break out within a few days because my skin is still so oily sometimes.

LOVE: how soft & smooth it makes my skin feel
Dislike: The sizes of the product bottles, for $60 at an as seen on TV showcase store... not sure the price is very good if you want to continue to use the system. They say that you have a 3 month supply for $60... works out to $20 a month. For me I seemed to have to wash my face twice a day. For some people this may be okay... for me the bottles seem a little small.

I definitely recommend this product. But because of it's quality, not it's price & product size value.
I personally love the results I have gotten from this product. I will continue to use it unless i find something that works faster & cheaper price!
