proactiv…?
I have been using proactiv for about a month now and I think that my acne got a little worse than before. Does it work like that? i mean, does the acne get worse before it goes away? But I have to say, (for whatever it’s worth) that my blackheads are completely gone and the overall texture of my skin has improved (but my skin has began drying up a few days ago, it’s not bothersome though). It’s just that I still get pimples on my cheeks. Will proactive actually help me get rid of my pimples?!
Help!
Thanks.
OK proactive is a good brand and it works on most people but you sound like me if you are than no for you proactive will not get rid of your acne I’m sorry. It is a wonderful brand but it doesn’t work on every one. I would stop using it because your skin will just getter dryer and flaky er if it hasn’t already. Just stop using it this is clearly not for you.
WAIT there’s hope!!!! Lately I have been using this AMAZING brand earth science. It’s been about two weeks and my acne is almost totally gone and I am talking really really really bad acne. It is a bit price but as a thrifty person I can tell you it is absolutely worth it!!!!!!!! It isn’t as good with black heads as proactive so i would keep that and use a few times a week were you get those. But really I’m not exaggerating this stuff is… it’s just a god send I know this sounds like a sales pitch but really this is just great.
I hope this helped!!!!!!!
keep using it. it did the same thing to me. it only worked for me for about a year. now i use something else.
it helps with mine. it will make your face very dry though, so be aware of that. Use the refining mask for spot treatment on those ones that wont go away. that will also help.
becuase of its drawing properties (takes the gunk out of your pores) it rises to the top and creates a pimple before going away. I suggest you continue with the treatment, as it is in the early stages of the process.
erm..i tht u can try using acne clear frm watson and apply on the pimples…i tht u can also use dainty lavender mask frm sg website at 88db to balance the pH and also reduce the sensitivity…i tht u can also use T-3 pimples cream and apply on ur pimples…
proactiv worked for me, but not that well. i did see a difference, however it wasn’t worth the cost of maintaining my membership. i went with accutane and that did the trick. probably not the answer you wanted, but proactiv just isn’t going to cure everyone. if it isn’t working after 2 months, go see your derm and discuss some other options. perhaps accutane, retin-a, or some oral antibiotics will work well for you.
Proactiv worked really good for me for about 9 months then it kinda just stoped working so now i use clearcal ultra it work really good so far i’ve been useing it for almost 6 months. But proactive does work really good for a while i don’t know why it stoped working on me
