Proactiv

In my last entry I wrote about how I was planning to do my own makeup and how I have been having skin issues lately. It has gotten to the point where I just said, "F- IT! I am ordering Proactiv!"

Now about my skin history. Honestly, I never really had issues with my skin. I would break out occasionally (usually on my chin) but nothing that I considered a big deal.

Fall of 2010 was bittersweet. I had just gotten engaged to the love of my life and my skin decided to be a bitch all in the same month!

It started out a few at a time in little clusters further up my jawline. It was a little embarrassing, but I was managing it just fine. Up until about four months ago.

It went from annoying to out of control. I debated about getting Proactiv, but decided to go with the Clinique three step system. I used that for a long time and it didn't help that much. At least not for me. Then I moved on to a more natural skincare routine called Yes to Tomatoes. Although I liked that it was natural and didn't have Parabens in it, it didn't help either.

This is my third system and I am on day two. Please cross your fingers that this one works for me!

Now off to take off this refining mask! :-)

I use proactiv and it really is the only thing that works for me. I still get acne at 27... its ridiculous! lol
It can be really harsh on your skin at first after a couple of days so make sure you have a good moisturizer for during the day.
Also there is bleach in it which really isn't that great for your skin but it works, however it dyes all of your towels and face cloths lol It actually looks like I dumped bleach all over them just to warn you haha

Good luck!!

I used Proactiv for awhile about two years until I became immune to it!! It really didn't work that great for me. I am now using Skin Id. I have been for the last couple of years and it is still working. Plus it is cheaper than Proactiv. Before you order Skin Id, you have to take an online test to know what type of solution is best for YOU. It consists of how much stress is in your life and how much sun you get, and so on... I would recommend this product to anyone because I feel that I is WAY better than Proactiv!

My skin got really bad out of nowhere about two years ago. I finally bought ProActiv and it cleared my skin up right away. But then it sort of stopped working like I was immune to it. Now I just use Clean & Clear which is working just as well as the ProActiv did for me.

I have used proactiv for about 3 years. It works for me and I have oily skin and sometimes I break out on my forehead and cheeks. Hope it works for you!
