Has anyone used this before? I am breaking out a lot and I really want something to get rid of these pimples on my forehead. If not please recommend something

Re: Proactive???
I've used it and it takes a bit for your skin to get used to it. I love the mask it comes with and the cleanser, it has little beads that scrub your face.
I would say it's worth it. But I also heard from some other girl here on LIW that a brand that you can buy in stores has the same ingredients...I think clean n clear. Not sure...

Re: Proactive???
I use it and its very good. It really works. But it only works for me when I am really diligent about making sure I use all three steps morning and night, though. I am lazy and skip steps a lot, and my skin pays for it. (There's a face scrub, toner, and a cream.)

Re: Proactive???
Wow.. am I the only one it didnt work on?!?!? Maybe I didnt use it as I was supposed to. I just about tried everything out there... and the only thing that has worked like a charm is birth control. Im specifially using it for my skin. Im using the patch and its a miracle how clear my skin has been. But if you just have a few pimples on your forehead.. Im sure some over the counter stuff should work. Good luck!

I just started using proactive. so far it is working really well for me. But I think it is bleaching my towels (my new registry towels!)

Nope me too, I used it consistantly for 6 months . the only positive effect it had on me as it made my skin softer! Other than that, it was the same!

Re: Proactive???
I had used Proactiv in the past, but got lazy w/ it...but it does work. But i recently found a product that i can't live without. It is so good and i recommend it to everyone and they all have positive result....The Shiseido line!!! they have a lot of products. I use the 'Pureness' products They are the ones in the blue bottles. ...that is for oily skin, but they also have for dry and normal. It really is great. kinda pricey for the amount you get, but you can use it sparingly and it will last for awhile. I used the facial cleanser , moisturizer mainly,, but also bought the toner and some other stuff. TRY IT!!!

Re: Proactive???
I have spent so much money trying to find something that will work for my skin... Most things make me break out instead of stopping the breakouts. The one thing that works for me is St. Ives apricot scrub for like 3 dollars. If I don't use it, or if I use something else, I break out.

I wasn't a fan either. It bleached my towels and the necks of all of my PJ tees...if it was bleachng my clothes I couldn't imaginew hat it was doing to my skin. Too harsh for me but good luck!

Re: Proactive???
I absolutely love this product. Different people have different results. I found that it gave me a completely new complexion. Give it a shot & cancel if you find you're one of the ones who doesn't react well or doesn't see results.

How long did it take to see results? I am thinking of trying it. I have been breaking out like crazy lately....

I swear by it. My face was horrible from stress. I started using it 3 months before I was married and I still use it. Its the only system that balances my skin.

Re: Proactive???
I've been using Proactive for a couple of years now and love it. I highly recommend it. I use the cleanser, toner, repairing cream, and occassionally the mask.
