Pro Activ? Who uses it and what do you think?

I was curious as to who uses pro activ and how you like it? My skin is very good (no acne, only the occassional pimple). I just noticed that I have a few white heads on my forehead. I was reading that pro activ is great for this type of thing.

Anyone use it and what kind of skin do you have?

Thanks.
Lauren

Tried it, broke out worse. Chat Icon

My face felt like the surface of a basketball. It was horrible.

I have really sensitive skin, but all the infomercials said it would still be safe.

Not the case for me.

It's the only thing that has worked for me and I was even on Accutane a few years back. I love it!

Re: Pro Activ? Who uses it and what do you think?

I tried it and I didnt think it was that great. My face is pretty clear to begin with, but it didnt do anything to make it even better.

I also had a really hard time canceling it. They kept sending me stuff and charging me even though I cancelled.

I would recommend buying at a kiosk at the mall first before you committ to the mail order version.

I've been using it for about 12 years. It's the only thing that works for me. When I stop using it I break out within a few days. I love it!

Did nothing for me.

Just be aware that you're automatically billed and shipped your next supply/package of Pro-Active. So if you don't like it, be sure to cancel your account!!!

I have bought my cleanser off of DHC. if you do a google you can find it. The creams and soaps arer expensive but my skin has never felt so good. I am glad to finally find a product that works and keeps me moisteurized without being so drying!

I tried it and didn't like it. It's very harsh.
