Those who used Proactive, did it work or is there another acne system that works?

Asked by ashleyvvv (104points) August 7th, 2011

I have very very oily skin and my face has been breaking out lately and I’m just really sick of it, because I am very strict about taking care of my face and nothing seems to work so I was thinking of using proactive or if I stumble upon another acne system that works. Has anyone with oily skin used Proactive or perhaps another acne system that has worked? If so, your thoughts please.

I’ve never had huge problems with acne, but a few times during my teenage years I had widespread breakouts that wouldn’t seem to go away. Proactive cleared those up quick for me.

I broke down and bought their products several years ago. At the time, I was dealing with a case of adult acne, just like my father had in his later years. Like you, my skin tends to be oily. It took less than four days for it to clear up, with only a rare spot showing up on occasion. It worked so well that I stopped wearing a foundation. IMO, it is worth giving it a try.

It bleached my daughter’s skin and did nothing for her acne. It seems to be primarily a type of bleach, I’m told.

My daughter had an acne problem and proactiv cleared her up very well.

It works for my kids for a while, then stops working. They trade out between homeopathic, Proactive, and a quality tea tree oil soap specially made for acne. Each one seems to work for a while, then they need to move on.
