i have used this in the past as well as my daughter.. it worked great and took the redness away from acne too.it starts to work right away and clears up all acne when used right. i find it pricey though

I've been using the ProActiv 3 step system for like 10 years now. Started in high school when my acne was horrible and I felt like I tried every acne treatment out there to no avail. It was more expensive back actually then than it is now but I'm glad I decided to take the plunge and give it a try! I use it morning & night and when I first started using it the 3 month supply now lasted me just that, but now it lasts me 5-6 months so I don't need to use as much anymore. I still get small breakouts here and there but they are hormone related so I don't think any topical treatment would be stopping those! I love the refining mask, it takes 10 minutes though so I don't use it as often as I should but when I do it leaves my skin feeling wonderful.

I say if you're battling acne, take the plunge & give it a try! It doesn't work for everybody (what skin product does? especially one that fight acne) but if it works for you, you'll be glad you did.

Tips: I buy it from Showcase, not online from ProActiv where it's shipped to you every 3 months, so I can buy it as I need it.
Use a white towel to dry your face (I've had it stain some of my towels)
If you find it drying out your skin, cut down the amount you use and then cut down to using it at night only

I used this a few years back to help combat my acne but it did nothing for me but waste my money. I heard so many good reviews and I was so excited to try it. It made my skin really itchy and really red. It dried it out like I hear its supposed to, bit t was unbearable. I have heard success stories so maybe this just wasn't for me.

I have had this and it worked on me. But nothing extra. It only worked like any other product would. It did clear up my face. But it expires really fast. And they keep sending it to you, when you really don't need it. And charging your credit card!

I honestly dont understand the whole hype about this product. It's been advertised way too much for it to not work. The products are extremely drying on the skin and did nothing for my acne, if anything, it inceased oil production and caused more acne
Truly horrible.

I tried this product a few years ago and i found that it worked well; although I did find that it dried out my skin. I think the kit is reasonably priced.

I have tried this product and my skin didn't react well at all I have had a few friend who have had the same issues. I found there was no way I could keep up with the daily cleaning my skin was burning and became sensitive and winter use was terrible because my face hurt in the cold like a sensible tooth or something. For me anyway I was dry and red patches just to strong I think if you have very very oily skin and terrible acne then hey this might work but if you have minor breakout this isn't for you

Proactiv works great. If your not careful, it will dry out your skin. I hate the price. I think the price should be lowered. The bottles are really small and the price is super high. The best way to to buy proactiv is to find a vending machine in the mall/store. If you order online, they will try to set you with a recurring subscription every month and after your first month, the price jumps up to $80-$90.

I currently use proactive. I have very sensitive skin that goes oily in the winter with breakouts in the summer. Most issues with facial cleansing products is using them properly or in proper order. With proactive you are presented with every product you will need and a guide for what to use when and how to use it. I have found this product does work, however the treatment does sting my sensitive skin.

I used this for years but just couldn't stand how sensitive it made my skin. I still love and would use the mask though.
