    WHILE THE PRODUCT ITSELF IS GREAT (IN MY EXPERIENCE), THE COMPANY IS HORRIBLE AND THEY WILL TRY TO SCAM YOU, SO BE WARE!! I first bought Proactiv in a kiosk and really enjoyed the product. But...

    I've had no reaction to it. But I also think it hasn't done anything at all. I now use benzaclin (prescription). Using this on its own hasn't shown results but when used with the other steps its...

    It's a decent product. I'm not sure why it's causing a burning sensation on other reviewers but I never had that problem. It works (well the whole system) really well on my older brother who...

    It burns so bad! I immediatly have to wash it off. It makes my face all red. Its full of chemicals that cause aging. Not at all good for your skin.

    It buuuuuuuuuuurns your face. Sort of helps with breakouts but the difference is pretty insignificant.

    Nothing special about thus product. It is no different than lotions you can buy at the drugstore. Also (and most importantly) the company that sells Proactiv engages in deceptive and fraudulent...

    I have to agree with everyone on this product. Overpriced for what it is and I'm a little concerned with the long-term effects. I'm actually in the process of weaning myself off of this for good...

    Just doesn't help improve my skin at all. The minute you stop using it the bumps come back...I believe the 2nd step which is the toner is extra drying. It may work wonders for some people but it...

    A necessity for me. I used to use the whole proactiv treatment which pretty much ruined my skin. Now I just use this, keeps most break outs at bay. When I feel a really bad painful one coming on, I...

    I use this lotion in combination with Purpose Gentle Cleanser and Dan's AHA + lotion. The Pro-activ system as a whole (I used it when I was 16), is unnecessary, but the lotion by itself is a good...
