Anyone with sensitive skin I would not recommend getting proactive, it will literally attack your skin and damage it so much
Also even if you don't have sensitive skin do not use the poor refining mask which is actually just a face wipe, it burns your face and makes it bright red and splotchy and it has so many chemicals in it that make your skin extra sensitive to sun for the next few days so you have to wear sunscreen if you go outside, I would not recommend putting all these chemicals on your skin at all! Naturals the way to go I leaned!

I've tried it and honestly, it's a waste of money. My skin doesn't change and I've tried other acne products that are not a renowned brand but seemed to work much more effectively. And your right, the least chemicals you wear, the better. If I go a day just drinking plenty of water and eating healthy my skin feels amazing!

It sucks, don't bother! Not only do the products suck...customer service is terrible and they'll keep charging your credit card and sending you products every 3 months, even when you don't want them to! It's like trying to pull teeth to get them to stop!

I've been using it for two years and I love it! I have sensitive/dry skin and it doesn't bother me at all! And whenever I get big pimples around that time of month I use the rifining mask on them and go to sleep and it works well for me! I also like their smoothing primer and tinted moisturizer. Some of my friends said it dries their skin but it works fine for me. My alternative to it is the Burt's bees deep cleansing cream. Love that stuff!

I used proactive for about a year or so. It worked okay. I feel like it had ups and downs in its effectiveness. My acne definitely cleared up when I first starting using it, but then I feel like my acne called in reinforcements to make sure I had at least one zit all the time.

I'm in the process of trying Peter Thomas Roth. One of my girlfriends swears by it.

Agree. Proactiv uses so many harsh chemicals and is very damaging to skin.

It only works for oily skin, it just makes sensitive skin irritated and gross.

It depends on what works for your skin! Proactive is a sacylic acne treatment, and some people's skin has bad reactions to it (my skin included, yikes!)
However, some people's skin is cleared up right away. It's all based on what your skin type is personally.

It worked for me but I'm one of those skin types where most skincare brands work on me.
