I started on Proactiv many years ago to see what all the hype was about. Prior to using this product, my skin was absolutely flawless. As a prevention measure, I wanted to add this to my skincare...

I've had very good luck with the regular Proactiv 3-Step System. I started using it in June of 2015, and it completely cleared my acne within 5 to 6 weeks. I use all three steps at night plus a...

I used this for more than a year n it did not improve my acne at all. It my skin much more oily and patchy. It was waste of my money. Not worth it.

I have a love-hate relationship with this product. At the height of my acne in my teens, this stuff saved my skin. Nothing worked until this system! It got rid of approx 90% of my acne. Now,...

Very mixed feelings about this stuff! After a month of using my acne was 95% gone- which of course was great! However, I found these products way too harsh for my skin. The chemicals in Proactiv...

This just didn't work for me. It felt harsh and drying so my skin was irritated as well as broken out. Bleached my wash cloths and towels too because of the benzoyl peroxide I guess, although...

I have to stick up for Proactiv because it's literally the only system that's ever worked for me. I have acne prone, sensitive, easily clog prone, oily t zone but very dry cheeks type of skin....

This used to be a stable then I found much better. I prefer peter thomas roth way way more than proactive. The 3 steps can be very irritating on the face and can really dry out my skin.

This did nothing for my skin but what concerned my more was it bleached my towels and wash clothes. I would not reccommend this product.

I used this back in the early 2000s. Pro Activ was a big deal back then. It has a cult following thanks to over hyped marketing behind it. I used it for years...and I had acne for years. All in all...

Don't waste your money on the three step system. The repairing lotion is all you need to keep zits at bay. I buy just that and it lasts me months. The wash and toner are way too drying which...

Not only was it ineffective in clearing my acne, but I'm confident it had a bleaching effect on my skin. My face became noticeably lighter than my neck after prolonged use. Please don't waste...

I would not recommend ProActiv for anyone. I have tried it two times, once when I was 13 and again when I was 15. My acne at 13 was not terrible but in no way was my skin clear ever, I always had a...
