Didn't work for my mild to moderate monthly acne. Perhaps it did not agree with my skin, but for all the brouhaha, it is quite obvious they took a mediocre product and spent millions on...

Sadly, Proactive was too much for my skin to take. By day 3 I had a nasty red rash creeping over my face. A trip to the derm and cortizone cream nixed the bumps. My derm did say that if your skin...

Pro Activ, for me, is not a good product. The combination of salicylic acid and benzoyl peroxide is not a good one. After using Pro Activ and other products just like it (Neutrogena's, Clean and...

I hate this stuff. It did nothing to keep my skin clear and dried my skin out sooooo bad that it was flaking and peeling like crazy while I had a ton of acne. Not a good combo. I know this might...

I've used this for a few years. It used to be much more effective than it is now. I know that they've changed the mixture/contents, because the toner used to bleach my clothes; now it...

NO, NO, NO! I have had moderate acne for years, and this didn't do anything for me, except worsen my condition! This dried out and irritated my skin like no other, even though I moisturised well....

As a teenager, I spent more than enough money on drugstore and department store clensers, toners, moisturizers, treatments, anything and everything meant to clear up acne. Frustrated with nothing...
