I started using it in January. It had helped a lot with my acne (even though I still get a few stubborn spots every now and then). It irritated my skin at first but now it doesn't really bother my skin anymore. I haven't gone a day without using it!

I think Proactiv helps more if you have little acne. http://antiskinproblems.com/truth-about-proactive-reviews/

I'm a guy with a pretty long history of acne problems. I did use proactive once a month, but I didn't think it really helped. I'd already been using over the counter BP creams for many years by then. Maybe that had rendered my skin tough by then. At any rate, what I found has helped is to consult a dermatologist. They can prescribe you with Accutance, a course of which can work miracles and keep acne down permanently. I've also found coincidentally that swimming helps to starve off most of the acne I've got afterwards. It somehow has the effect of cleansing my skin from deep down, and helps to heal any currently. It's also good exercise, a survival skill, and fun!! I'd highly recommend taking swimming as a hobby, which has, at least for me, the effect of helping my acne.

I have been using Proactiv for almost 2 weeks now and my skin doesn't look that great, I have pimples all over my T-zone but my best friend has been using proactiv for about 3 months and there is not one spot on her face. You have to understand that Proactiv only works for certain skin types and takes a good amount of time to work. You just have to have patience with this product.
