    this scraped my face and left a highly visible scar! I used this every other day for one week. Then, this underperforming and overpriced product was returned. It significantly dries out the...

    I used this for 2 years to control my acne, and in that regard it is moderately effective, but you pay a HUGE price in aging your skin with benzoyl peroxide. This stuff is bad for your skin. The...

    My primary complaint about this product is that the particulate (little bead-like things) included in the cleanser for the purpose of exfoliation are not round and smooth, but in fact rough and...

    I can't live without this stuff. I don't use the entire 3 step system. I have used it before but I don't notice any difference from using the entire 3 steps versus just using the cleanser and...

    I started using the 3 step system in response to some unusually bad breakouts. My skin cleared up but was super dry and flaky so I stopped using it and for a while my skin stayed relatively clear...

    I hate this product. It completely dried out my skin within three days of using it once daily - the skin on my face was literally flaking off, and my skin is not usually THAT dry. It also left my...

    O.k. I know everyone thinks this is just awesome...But seriously, it is the Benzoyl Peroxide working. All you need to do is buy a cleanser with BP and you can get the same exact results. Yes,...

    I used ProActiv products (main acne fighting ingredient: Benzoyl Peroxide) for just shy of two years. The products did get rid of my breakouts, but bleached everything it came in contact with (my...

    I love this. the grains are just enough that it exfoliates nicely without being too harsh. the product itself cleanses well and leaves my skin feeling fresh. I leave this on my face for a minute or...

    I'm actually probably one of the few who don't care for this. In all honesty, I think face washes with any amount of bp or sa don't really do much b/c they sit on your skin for those 1 or 2...

    This cleanser is the best product in the entire Proactiv line. It has small exfoliating beads in it which gently polish your skin. Even though it contains benzoyl peroxide, it's very gentle and...
