Is proactive good?? why or why not??

Question

should i try proactive on my pimples?? i don't have that many what should i do??

Answer 1

No. When i got it, i used it for a couple weeks and my skin just keep getting worse...

It actually started to peel and get really red.

My skin got soooo sensitive from it..

I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.. Its so harsh on the skin..

Answer 2

If you don't have a bad acne problem then I would say yes. It really makes your skin look clear and feeling clean

Answer 3

Well all it does is dry your skin.

But as long as you are cleaning your face and changing your sheets, you'll clear up in no time.

Answer 4

Just get some acne cream form a drugstore.

Proactive was intended for people who have tried everything and have stubborn/complicated acne. Now people with random pimples are using it. But they do not realize you can't stop using it or it will come back. No one I know is happy with it 100% of the time and are breaking out more now that they are trying to stop using it. Don't buy it!

Answer 5

yes but there is stuff you can get at the grocery store for twenty bucks. It has three stages to it just like proactive. It even says on the box its comparable to proactive! just much cheaper

Oh, i would also only use it before you go to bed so it doesnt dry your face out.

The main one to use though is the repairing lotion. thats where the medication is.

Answer 6

It didn't work for me. After just a month my skin got really dry without improving my skin. Eventually it got too expensive $5 remedies are more effective and cheaper.  

Answer 7

i wouldnt theres alot of over the counter products that work just as good if not better and are cheaper. i would recommend clean and clear or acnefree.

Answer 8

idk

Answer 9

Its very strong. If you have dry or sensitive skin dont buy it.

It your skin is normal or oily though, it definately gets rid of pimples. Just stick to the routine =3

Answer 10

No i wouldnt it dried my skin made it red irritated I wouldnt it isnt good and I would suggest and mask or extractions something like that should help and just washing and moisturizing all the esentials for you face.

Answer 11

no as soon as you stop using it you get worser acne

try neutrogena  

Answer 12

well it only works on some people!

but you should try it and if it doesn't work then try something new! =]

GOOD LUCK! (:

Answer 13

YES, its good for first stage treatment

Answer 14

No it sucks.  I used it for a while, and all it did was dry the h**l out of my skin.  Go to your doctor and get tetracycline.  I used it and it worked great for my face.  Now I'm the sexiest ****** alive.

Answer 15

well

i heard if one day u dont use it, u grow DOUBLE the pimples

cuz remember, ur face is used to having FACEWASH everydayy

Answer 16

Yes! It works amazingly. I don't have that many pimples either so I use a Neutrogena cleanser and I use ProActive every other day.
