Yes I used Proactive. Proactive burned my skin.
So I gave the product to my 17 year old. It worked for her. I'm now using Naturally Clear, it cleared up my blemishes and less pimples when my monthly comes along.

There was this infomercial on tv about Proactiv, and they were interveiwing Jessica Simpson about this product, and Jessica said it got rid of all her acne around her mouth, she says its great.

I wish I was so lucky Renee! Even with proactiv, I still break out slightly, but it's WAY less than before I used it. If I drink 8 glasses of water a day while I'm using it, I don't break out at all...but man I hate having to run to the bathroom every 10 minutes!

Another tip for those with acne problems: Spirutein is great...somehow it lessens my breaking out the same as drinking all that water does, and I can tell a difference on the days I don't drink one. Don't know why. It's a soy protein shake made with spirulina and is full of vitamins. Some of the flavors taste kinda nasty, but the cookies and cream one and the banana one are good (it also improves the taste if you mix it with oj instead of milk...the banana one, that is. I wouldn't mix the oreo cookie one with oj. Yuck).

I used Pro active for about a couple of years and it worked pretty good. Then, all of a sudden, it stopped working! Now I used cetaphil.

I've tried many things in the past with no luck, however I had been given a prescription for Accutane which worked incredible for me! However, Accutane is a little tricky. At first, the dermatoligist kept warning me of side effects of depression and suicide, which caught me off guard - but after seeing my skin clear up, I was happier than ever before. Unfortunately after a few months, I came to find out that the excessive amounts of Vitamin A in Accutane caused me to have a hypertoxicity (acute Hepatitis). I stopped it immediately and it took about 5 months for it to heal... so you HAVE TO BE CAREFUL with that. After a few months, I ordered Proactiv and it's been working great for me for over 1 year.

I used Proactive for a whole year. It did get rid of my pimples but it made my skin very dry and dull. six months into the use of this product and it stopped working for me.
