Ok, essentially the bottom line is - IT WORKS! cant deny it. I was having random breaking out on my face this summer, nothing did anything for it. The first night I used this stuff - though my face...

Cleared my skin up in a few weeks. Does not make my face too dry or too oily. Worked perfectly for me. Did not clog my pores and absorbed very easily. Love this!!

The repairing lotion does work, in my case it took about 5 weeks of persistance to clear up my skin. As long as I use it nightly I don't break out.

This lotion doesn't have a strong effect. I thought it will diminish all my pimples. It doesn't do anything at all. However, the price is not that expensive.

This is by far the BEST pimple treatment ever, and I agree the most useful in their 3 step system, the other 2 can live without. I started using it after seeing the success on my sister's skin (she...

Overall, I gave it a 2 because it does the job as a cleanser, toner and exfoliator. I am prone to breakouts and have conbo/oily skin but did not clear my skin. Not for me. NO miracles here.

This is a fairly good product. At first it really cleared my skin up, but now my skin seems to be a bit more sensitive to it and a little red. It does help keep acne at bay, so now i only use it...

I think people are getting confused as to what the product is for and how to use it. Its an acne treament-not a moisturizer for your skin. Its just less harsh than other acne gels or creams. It...

I have been using Proactiv for about 2 or 3 months and this is the best product in the 5 peice system. I have extremely dry skin but I am still prone to breakouts. After I put on the toner my skin...

This is a good BP product, especially if you have sensitive skin. It makes your skin feel smooth and is so gentle. A big HOWEVER: My skin has been behaving badly for quite some time now, and I...

I used to use the entire 3-step, and was very pleased. I had stress-induced acne (from being in my first year in law school) and after about 6 weeks, the 3 step cleared it up and kept it...

Like others have said, this is the best product in the 3 step line. You do not need to use the other products with this for it to work. I use it alone just once a day or when I have some flare ups...

Terrible. My skin is worse after using. These products contain chemicals that irritate acne prone skin. Methylparaben to name one.
