Hey ladies,
Does proactive work and is it worth it?

It's alright, but I'd try The Body Shops Tea Tree Oil Skincare first. I hear much better things of this product over Proactive.

No I wouldn't recommend it doesn't work for everyone for some people it gives them more acne and some people it just doesn't work. So try to go for a different acne fighter.

@katilyn I used that before and it my skin became dependent on it and it stopped working but I'm probably going to try that again

Yea that's what I heard @arissa and @jacqlyn my mom thought otherwise and I wasn't 100% on what I wanted to do.

I used it and I started to have money problems so I stopped and it got worse after. Your skin starts to depend on it and you have to use it all your life practically

It got rid of all of my blemishes, BUT after I stopped using it, my blemishes got worse and they all came back.

No you shouldn't. It's horrible for your skin. It can burn it. Go for something else.

I guess I'm the only person that likes proactiv lol. I only use the first step though, the cleanser. And I use my own toner and moisturizer. I find proactiv steps 2 and 3 make my skin pretty oily so I only buy the cleanser.

I've heard that once you start using it your skin gets addicted to it and if you stop using it, it will make you break out.

I used it like 4 months & my skin was amazing but once I stopped my skin was worse than before :) try other natural solutions for you acne!

No. It made my skin so much worse after I stopped using it. It's not worth the money and doesn't help acne any more than drugstore products do.

Both my sister and I use Proactiv. Her skin is now absolutely flawless. I haven't been able to entirely clear up my acne but it does help.
