It’s the first 3-step acne treatment system that started a skin care revolution. Designed specifically for acne-prone skin, this Proactiv acne treatment kit delivers finely-milled benzoyl peroxide deep into your pores to help stop acne-causing bacteria in its tracks and prevent new breakouts from forming. This acne kit includes Renewing Cleanser, an acne face wash, Revitalizing Toner, and Repairing Treatment, the original acne treatment cream. The starter acne treatment system is a 30-day introductory size of Proactiv Solution 3-Step regimen to help ease your skin into your new acne care program. As you incorporate Proactiv into your regular routine, you should begin to see visible changes to your skin in the weeks ahead. In the first week, your skin is acclimating to the Proactiv acne treatment. You may experience some dryness, slight flaking, and irritation in these early days. This is totally normal. As with any acne product, be sure to use a sunscreen of at least SPF 30 every day to protect your skin. Proactiv has a complete line of products beyond the 3-Step System, including acne, moisturizer, hydrating moisturizers, sunscreens, acne spot treatments and acne body washes, all formulated specifically for acne prone skin.

This is a little over 2 weeks of using it twice a day. My face gets a little dry but I use coconut oil to moisturize it once a day which helps (moisturize more or less based on how dry it feels). It hasnt cleared it all up yet, but I definitely see an improvement which is more than other store bought face washes has done. Im excited to see what it looks like at 60 days! The price is kinda high but if its doing the job than its worth the money. Will be updating.

I mean, it’s Proactiv, chances are you’ve heard of it by now, and if you haven’t tried it yet, this stuff is as great as everyone says so do yourself a favor. This comes neatly packaged and ships quickly, easy to use, and it just does the job. I’ve had mild to moderate adult nodular acne for years, sometimes I can go months to a year with almost no outbreaks, sometimes I get awful flare ups. This stuff always saves me and does so in no more than 72 hours. Love you Proactiv.Edit:After receiving some questions doubting the product and checking other reviews on here I felt I had to add this: this is a legitimate product, it is sold directly by Proactiv, it is not third party, I am not being paid for my review or given free product, I’m just a loyal customer and have been for years.This set is basically the Proactiv staple, and they have branched out into all kinds of different specialized treatments now. If you really really really struggle with moderate to servere acne, you should probably consult a dermatologist or do some research on the right products first. That being said, this IS a 30 day set, despite what so many are saying. Read and follow the directions, a little bit goes a LONG way. Which leads to the second problem people are having: all the “burns” and “allergic reactions”. Honey, these are chemicals you’re putting on your face and if you are not applying them correctly, and in moderation, they will do more harm than good just like anything else. Watch an old infomercial, watch a YouTube video on how to wash your face with this stuff properly. I know you want that acne gone girl, but slathering your whole face in the entire bottle on day one is just going to give you a chemical peel, chill.And also, like everything else, it’s not an absolute miracle. There will still be breakouts. You may also have to *gasp* adjust your diet, cut out certain foods, drink water, and get some sleep. This stuff will meet you a huge percentage of the way though, honestly I have tried EVERYTHING out there and it’s still the best.A basic rundown for application:Step 1: It really helps to have a face/pore cleansing brush. Proactiv usually gives one away for free on their site with first orders but you can get them anywhere from Walmart, any drug store, Amazon, heck they often come as electric razor attachments.Wet the brush head. Apply a very small amount to the brush, the directions say a dime size, if that. Be mindful that hot water is actually an irritant for skin that can potentially cause breakouts, so washing your face with lukewarm water is better. I know I know, you think opening up your pores completely with hot steamy water is best. No. Not when you are about to douse your face with chemicals. Stick with tepid for now. Wash your face with the brush thoroughly for a minute or so, eyebrows and all. Don’t do your eyes or eyelids, that should obvious but apparently some people are doing that, so…ahem… moving on.The directions say to wash your face twice daily, you certainly can, but you don’t have to, and with sensitive skin, or if you’re new to Proactiv, again, a little goes a long way. I’d recommend starting with once daily (and then this stuff may even stretch you past 30 days). My suggestion is for the other morning or nightly routine (pick one) Use Hot water (now you can) and steam your face. Apply hot water to a towel and hold it to your face for 5-10 mins, open up those pores. I’d recommend this for bedtime. Get some organic rosewater and lightly spritz afterward if you want but you don’t have to. Ladies, use Micellar water or Cleansing oil to clean away makeup, and only use foundations that are good for your skin like BB creams. In that regard go as light on makeup as you’re willing to, and wash your makeup brushes often.Making sure you change your sheets, especially your pillowcase weekly helps, hypoallergenic sheets are worth a try, as well as making sure you’re not sleeping with an old pillow.I know it seems off topic but lifestyle really impacts acne and people on here expect Proactiv to solve 100% of the problem but guaranteed there are other factors at play ;)Step 2: That toner is hardcore, so go light on it. Apply it with Cotton pads, *sparingly*, and make sure your face is completely rinsed of the cleanser and dry, because layering on top of it will burn. And if you are in the sun a lot- as the bottle and directions warn-will burn, so again, go sparingly, be mindful.Step 3- Repair is a spot treatment, and again, is to be used sparingly. I have never once in the +10 years I have used Proactiv ever run out of the 30 day or 90 day supplies ahead of time, I always have the Repair treatment leftover. If you have severe acne, again, your first stop should be a dermatologist. But a little will go a long way here, use sparingly, and apply at least a few minutes after the toner.Be patient, do it right, this stuff does work.

I suddenly developed adult acne out of nowhere and panicked. Nothing I did stopped it. Out of sheer desperation I bought this set, and within a few days my face was totally clear. One caveat: go very gently until you see how your skin responds to these products. If I used all three every day my face became dry & tight. Cutting back on one or two of them (just using one product/day, or alternating them) took care of this. My skin looks great, and an unexpected bonus was seeing the light sun damaged blotches disappear. I love this stuff.

I was nervous about buying this set because of the negative reviews. The packaging was very well put together – great presentation. I was expecting just the cleanser, toner and cream, but it also came with a sample of the green tea moisturizer and the clarifying mask. All of the bottles were sealed so you could tell they hadn’t been used or opened. It also came with an instruction sheet explaining how to use the set step-by-step. I used the products last night and first thing this morning. I haven’t been able to tell a difference quite yet, but I’m excited to see the results.(I’ve used these products in the past and I can tell these are legit. I would highly recommend this regimen.)
