Hello all. I've been on the fence about using Proactive to clear my skin and I wanted to know if anyone has any input on this product. Of course the commercial makes it look like the best thing since sliced bread but I'd rather hear from some real people. Feedback anyone?

I haven't personally used it, but I have thought about it. My aunt used it and you could really see the results in her face.

Thank you SO MUCH for this link about Brown skin. I'm going to share this link with a niece that has acne and has been "searching" for good products to help combat acne.

Thanks for replying and for your input ladies. I still don't know about this product because it seems as if it would be sort of harsh judging by the results shown on the commercial. I have funny acting skin anyway. The smallest molecule of dust can reek havoc on my face but my main problem is on my nose and t-zone and for some reason along my jaw line. I mean it's not like you can play connect the dots or anything but I want to have blemish free, unclogged and clean pores and nothing I've used thus far has worked. Actually I get the best results from steam.

Moe, thanks for the link. I will check that out. Ya'll have a blessed day, ya hear?

Thank you. I was wondering if you might know or if your Aunt ever mentioned if the product was harsh on her skin? Also, once the product did its job, did she have to continue using it? If so, was it on a regular basis or just occasionally? I apologize for the interogation, but so far youre the only person so far who knows anything. I appreciate youre time and attention. Peace and blessings to you and yours.

Well ok, thank you. That sounded like the bottom line to me so I'm not even going to ask why. HAGO

I tried it, but I really didn't like it. I have oily skin and that particular problem seemed to worsen, so I stopped after about 2 months....but I'm using Aveeno products now (for the last couple of months) and that has definitely improved my complexion.
