So I need a couple opinions on Proactive , Did it work for you ? Did it not ? I just need opinions because I was going to try it myself because of my skin so any opinions about this product would help ! Thanks !

It worked when I first used it for about 6 months. Then I stopped. When I started using it again several years later it did not work well at all.

It doesn't work any better than any other benzoyl peroxide product out there.

it does...but its too harsh. the "steps" of products the line suggests you use have imbalanced pHs that force your skin to work harder to heal or repain or rejuvenate....

also benzoyl peroxide is also irritating especially for sensitive skin. I would suggest trying proactobs Deep Cleanaing facial wash made with salicylic acid. I use it daily with a moisturizer by Fresh and my skin has never been so consistently clear and even looking! try it!!

I have combination skin and I brought a set when I was going through a bad stage of spots, oily skin on my cheeks and dry skin on my nose and yes I found it work :) but there are better products out there at a cheaper price.

Nivea range I find is brilliant! Cleanse and clear is also a good range.

Personally don't waste your money products that I use and recommend and my daily routine in which makes my skin wonderful!

In the morning I wash my face with hot water and an exfoliater - LUSH does one called salt scrub which is brilliant and by exfoliating will remove all your dead skin sells.

Afterwards I cleanse tone and moisturise - Nivea range for this which is OMG amazing!

I do the same at night however when I have the time I use face masks - LUSH do amazing facemasks so check them out. Montagne Jeunesse facemasks are brilliant and cheap!

Nose pore strips if you have clogged pores on your nose - blackheads removes all the dirt.

Steaming your face before using a nose pore strip or generally having a wash is great fill your basin or a bowl with boiling hot water, place your face over it and a towel over your head to keep the steam in wait two minutes then either wash your face as normal, use a face mask or use a nose pore strip then afterwards wash your face with cold water to close your pores :)

I think it depends on the persons skin type I used to use it but I used it too much and it made my face chapped but that's my mistake. My sister used to use it too but she said it stopped working for her. But I would recommend aveeno face pads and the scrub or foam all work great. But with face wash its difficult because all skin types are different.

Yes it does, you have to moisturize right after people say they're face was raw is because you need to be gentle you cant rub it hard on your face because its rough and more of an exfoliator texture. It works for me but when you're skin gets used to it youll notice and use a different facial wash twice a week and proactive the rest.

I would just try to drink plenty of water and eat healthier foods and cut out sweets and see if that helps.
