I received a free sample of this with my shipment. I like the packaging, but that is all I like about this product. It does absolutely nothing for my skin. Acne didn't shrink and redness wasn't...

This is one of the better pimple cream for me and works most of the time. Strangely, it does not dry out my pimple like other brands(eg: Oxy) but it makes my pimples or acnes subside pretty fast....

I would probably have rated this lower if I had actually paid for it, but Proactiv just threw it in as a sample. This product...does nothing for my acne. No matter how much or how often I apply, it...

Once again, what's the deal with the lousy packaging?! The tubes are too thin, it's such a struggle to get the product out! And i didn't think this stuff was a very big deal, not for the price.
