Not my fave

Alright, we have all seen the commercials over the years for Pro active. And you think...well if it's this popular then I should use it. Well it was a waste of my money. I got a return. What happened is I used the product like instructed and as I was using the moisturizer my skin burned. Turns out it was the scrub that caused the issue. I had a rash and my entire face was so red and sore i thought i would have to go see a doc for cream. So I washed it off immediately, I took it back and showed them my face and got a refund. I have never looked back. For over a month I had issues with my skin that I had to seek medical attention for cortisol cream or however it is spelt. Needless to say this was a horrible experience and a bad product for my personal skin. This may work for others but it does not work for me.

Scam scam scam

This product is such a scam! I have used it myself and know many others who have used it and all it did was cause more acne and more problems. I strongly believe they push this product on young teens who do not know better. The price is insane for the little amount you get and it does nothing but make your face more red and irritated.

Would never recommend to anyone

I tried this product after struggling with some acne and poor skin. After only 2 days of use, my skin was already feeling it's effect in a very bad way. My skin had suddenly become completely raw. I initially thought that my skin just needed to get use to the product so I continued to use it for another few days. It only made things worse. I would definitely not recommend this product. Luckily, they do have a return policy if you are unsatisfied. When I did return the product, I was told by the sales consultant that I had obviously used it incorrectly and that's the only reason why it causes me problems. That was not the case as I followed the instructions to a T.

No. Just, no. I don't even understand how this company has not gone out of business. Smells gross, weird consistency, harsh feeling, ineffective, overpriced. Basically useless. Save your money and try something better quality that's not a marketing scam!

I understand that proactiv is a very popular facial cleansing system, but i dont like this product because my skin broke out. I tried to use proactive becuase it was shown on TV and most people use it. My skin type is dry and sensitive and most facial products do not work for my skin type. When I used it ( the entire system) my face was beat red for 2 days and after a week of use ( I figured it was normal to get "worse" before it gets better) but that wasn't the fact. I not only cause Dan allergic reaction but it also dried my skin out even more and it did make it worse. My acne did not clear up, my skin was read for more the 2 days and hurt. I couldn't use facial cleansers or lotions for my face and I wasn't able to wear makeup for over a week due to this product. Personally I do not recommend it. And if you need to have a proper diagnosis for acne...go see a dermatologist. Mine recommend to use vichy and or Aveeno products. Which helped largely.

I used this product for 3 months in hopes that my skin would get worse before it got better. That never happened. My acne worsened after using this product and I started breaking out on my cheeks which never happened before in my life.

after seeing commercials i though it was a must have. i dont have bad acne but a few trouble spots. i wouldn't say i have particularly sensitive skin but it burned my skin so badly. i did follow the instructions word for word but man i couldn't wear make up for days after and needed to get a perscribed ointment for the chemical burn!
