I'm thinking about getting this stuff. Has anyone on here used it? I look a mess as of late and I'm noticing it more and more... so I definitely need to do something.
I need to know: How much does this stuff run? Does it ACTUALLY work? Is it worth picking up?

It works for me. As long as you use it twice a day. It runs about 50 bucks for a "two month supply" but it usually lasts double for me. So for me it's like paying $12.50 a month.
It's not as instant as it says it is but it helps in the long run.

I personally didn't like it. Didn't work for me. If you get one pimple a month, it's good. But if you were like me where you get one pimple A DAY and they last for a week each zit...then you need something a little stronger. There are all kinds of pills and creams you can get a prescription for....but IN MY OPINION, the best thing you can just walk into a store and BUY is the "AcneFree" kit. At Walmart I get it for like $23 bucks and it's cheaper and LASTS longer than Proactiv.  That's what it looks like so you know what to look for if you go to the store looking for it. And like I said, it's the only thing that's ever worked FOR ME, but everybody is different. Good luck man, I know what a pain in the ass this can be and how much it can screw with your life until you get it somewhat under control. I still have a problem every-now-and then as I don't think there is ANY way to get rid of acne completely. But it seems like my problems are now fewer and far between. Like for one week every month or 2 I'll just be a disaster, and then I'll be fine for a while. |

I think I'll get that stuff and give it a shot as it's easier than ordering Proactiv. I didn't really know of any stuff to grab at regular retail stores but I'll have a look at Wal-Mart for that. I'm at the point where I get like two-three pimples a week but they're big suckers. I haven't used anything recently so now I'm just a mess, to be honest. I gotta go looking for that stuff tomorrow.

The face mask thing they have works better for me then the other stuff.

It dries out the skin to much. If you are going to use it, make sure you get a good lotion to use with it.

My sister used it and it seemed to work. I think I will try that one pictured since it seemed to work so good for him. I won't have to use that much either so it should last a while.

I've used it before. They sold it at the mall closest to where I live and it was like $50 for your standard pack, which had 3 bottles (3 steps). It was the first thing I tried when I broke out and I think I used it for a number of months but it never really did wonders for me. But you can't go by my experience because everyone is different. Finally I went to my dermatologist (go to the doctors and book and appointment for yourself) and have him examine your skin. He'll most likely pop one of your pimples, run some tests, and then get back to you later on that day or the next with the perfect subscription for you. That's what I did. He prescribed me a cream for morning called Duac and a cream for night called Differin and said it would take about 6 months to fully work. So I tried that and it worked. I get the occasional break out here and there but it's really helped.

A months worth is 50 bucks and It didnt work for me. worst 50 bucks I ever Spent! If your lazy dont buy it either, because i am and it was a hasle to do it. Just wash your face and pop them when you get out if the shower. that works more than any other cream.

When I used it no it didnt work, and I had terrible acne, so eventually I went to a skin doctor person, and they perscribed me a pill and some face rub, its worked very well. So  proactive. |

Tried it. Made my face abit irritated and dry. But it did clean away most of my acne but I did breakout in some points.
