When you first started to use it did it make your face very dry? I just started to use it and it's making my face very dry. Usally I have oily skin and for it to be very dry is so weird. Just wanted to know if this was normal and will it go away.
no it didn't come with the moistureizer. Maybe i'll have to get that if it dosen't stop. But after like 2 days my skin looks so great!!! lol

i used it years ago and yes, at first it made my skin dry. do you have the moisturizer? that usually helps.
for me though, i found that every once in a while it would make my skin dry and it would get really flakey so i stopped using it.
but i heard from a few people that it made their skin dry in the beginning, and then it didn't happen again.
good luck!!
Try buying Aveeno Ultra Calming Lotion for your face. That should help with the redness.
Definitely get the moisturizer!
Oh the first time it really dried my skin, badly infact...But you know what i would use, cetaphil, its a great moisturizer...youre supposed to use non-comedogenic(sp?) i cant even remember right now if its the right word lol but yeah cetaphil is great for your skin too...So i would just moisturize a couple times a day...I would even bring it out with me to just put it on.

I have used Proactiv and everything else in the world of acne meds and NOTHING WORKS, they all make my face soooo dry even when I use mosturizer and then my dry pimples peal off, I know that EWWWWW, and then that leaves scarring. I am thinking of getting laser surgury to get rid of everything, has anyone done this??
i bought it and found the same problem. now i only use it on my nose (it does help clear up clogged pores!) and i use almay anti-aging on the rest of my face, but i am normally dry and the almay is like a thick cream.

I had the same problem. I didn't like the moisturizer that they sell. It dried my skin so much it became irritated so I started using it once daily and it's not as effective as twice a day. Now that I'm not having the dryness I may start using it twice daily again. It was suggested to me to use cetaphil, oil free, gentle, and it does its job.

I have never used it....
I think I have bad skin, but everyone says I don't and my mom says I don't need to see a dermontologist for acne. I don't have acne I know that, but I always feel self consious about my face and I want it to clear up more- especially those clogged pores on my chin and nose.
So..haha how can you get Proactive without a Doctors prescription? do they sell it anywhere else beside off the TV as well haha...
