Reply:hey..i have used proactive before to..it made my acne alot worst. so i went to my doctor about. he said that proactive is just not for some people and he prescribed me benzaclin it really works!
Reply:My dermotoligist told me 2 try Nutregina on the spot. He said it is the same thing as proactive really just a little better for sensitive skin.I have not tried it yet but Im getting it tomorro when I go out
Reply:proactiv is awesome for some people. i was actually surprised to see so many people that it doesn't work for. my sister uses it, i've used it, my friends use it. they all have clear skin. i tried that benzaclin prescription and it didn't work for me.

Reply:Acne is caused by many different things... Proactive can help if you skin is extremely oily. If that is the problem, you should begin to see the results within a week or two... I would spend the extra money to see a dermotogist, they can usually help you use the correct face products.
Reply:Well my opinion on proactive isn't great...the thing is I had high hopes when I bought it and then I turned out being terribly allergic to it...it was so bad my face blew up and the itching was horrible.. so in a sense I cant really tell you if it actually works because i couldn't continue with it after the first time..maybe if I wasn't allergic to it it might have worked!





As far as recommending a product goes my best advise would be to just visit a Dermatologist if your acne is really bad! That's what I had to do after trying everything else!


My doctor prescribed several medications that I had to follow through with all for a while and I still do it...and I must say Ive experienced much improvement!





If you cant afford going to a doctor then just hang in there and keep experimenting! I know acne is the worst!


Just keep in mind that you will not find a cure, only a treatment!
Reply:Personally, I like ProActiv, but it doesn't work for everyone. I have sensitive skin, and I HIGHLY recommend Purity by Philosophy. It moisturizes and cleanses your skin without making it shiny, and it smells great too! Check out www.philosophy.com to buy some!
