Q: Proactive Solutions

I know infomercials are full of crap sometimes but proactive is no joke. If you haven't tried it yet you should! My cousin had really bad acne and tried everything she could but nothing worked. Then one day her friends little sister told her about proactiv and that it worked. So she decided to try it out even though she was skeptical. Her face really cleared up and now she tells everyone about it. She got me hooked. I never had really bad acne but I would have breakouts every now and then and since i've used proactive I haven't had any. It's the closest thing your gonna get to a miracle.

Pro-active
Well I am using pro-active and it hasn't done anything for me at all. I used it once before and it didn't work. Since my acne got better I thought it would help/work, but it has not.

Proactiv Seems to Help Control the Acne
I have been using proactiv for the last few years. I first started taking it about 5 or so years ago, when it first came out. It seemed to help, but my face would get very irritated and dry from the lotions. I was on it for a year or so, then went off of it for over a year and a half. My acne came back, soon after that and I tried all kinds of stuff. I was going to school, under a lot of stress, eating poorly and not exercising, which all contributed to the problem getting worse. I eventually reordered proactiv, and started using the spf moisturizer, along with the make up (foundation & powder), and it has really helped get the acne under control. I now exercise regularly and eat more fruits and veggies. The acne isn't 100% gone, but it is a far cry from where I was without proactiv. I'm sure the exercising and eating right has helped. Overall, I think it is a good product, and the best that I have used out on the market for acne.
