I tried this when I was younger and I know they have said they changed the formula since then but from my experience this is only for certain skin types. I believe more oily skin types. For me my...

I've tried this system many times and am so sorry I waited so long to find something better. What a complete rip off! Ordering online is a HUGE mistake because once they have you in the system...

anyone considering proactiv should consider: Their deceptive business practices that require you to receive product and that do not cancel when requested, don't refund, etc. Try Paula's...

I wish people would stop buying this stuff. Proactiv isn't being advertised like crazy because it's a good product...if it was, it would sell itself (like Alpha Hydrox). Do some research and go to...

Not for everyday use because this will dry out and could possibly damage your skin. Use proactive products as a supplement to a skin care routine. The product contains benzoyl peroxide which is an...

I started using this when I got stubborn adult acne. It dried my face out so bad it was flakey. Didn't do anything for me. I went to a dermatologist today and she almost cringed when I told her I...

A temporary fix for your acne problems - it basically bleaches your acne off - this product bleached my towels after I washed off the product - if it does that to your towels what is it doing to...
