proactiv isnt just for people with bad acne. its really good for your face. but that bad part is that your face gets worse before it gets better but then it totally clears your face up and keeps it that way! the face wash is really god. it has exfoliating grains in it too get off all the dead skin cells and it doesnt irritate sensitive skin. it is medicated to treat and help prevent zits. the toner refreshes your face and gets off the dirt and oil the cleaner might have missed. the repairing lotion works really quick to take away pimple. the mask is my fav! if you leave it on for one night on a big zit or whatever it is almost gone in the morning! it also comes with a guide that tells you what to eat and a ton more about your face and how you can get rid of acne!

Hey~I have it more than most of my friends too, what I have noticed was that I only am really bad around that time of month, and only if I have been regular. Other wise I would just wah your face every night and watch what you eat. The Face cleaning stuff I use is called Aveeno, clear complexion. It is a moisturizer. it works really good! I hope I helped! ~Paige~

Well... try washing your face more often.. like when you get up and before you go to bed... if that doesnt work... Just buy a less powerful acne medicine/cream. [H][U][G][S] ~Summer

Im not even sure proactive works... so y dont u try going to the dermatologist... they'll probably prescribe retina micro... & u dnt have to have really bad acne to use it... its a better idea than using proactive & it'll probably be cheaper too...

I used to have bad skin but not anymore, and this is what I use: Daily/nightly: Dove facial cleansing cloths(its about $6 for one box of 30, but I cut them in quarters) Every once in a while: Clearasil ultra(10 dollars, use it a lot, it helps!) Use it for about a month and you should get better skin!

i have it as well..and so do some of my friends..like about 6 or 7 of them or w.e anywayz..try washin your face like 3 to 4 times a day...(when you get up in the morning..when you come home from school..after dinner....then right before you go to bed...) and same for the weekends..it really clears up fast if you do it 3 to 4 times a day..on really hot days I do 5 or 6..lol - hope I helped

I hardly have any pimple or acne or whatever and I use pro active. It doesn't matter how bad your skin is, it will still clear it.

Try applying face masks. There's different kinds, but the two main working ones are avocado and egg masks. This is how you apply an egg mask: Separate the yolk from the egg white (crack the egg into a bowl, but do NOT let the yolk fall out of the shell. Move the yolk from one egg shell half to the other until all the egg white is in the bowl) and then put the egg white and the yolk in separate bowls. First apply the egg white on your face and let it dry for 20 minutes (it hardens) then rinse and add a little bit of olive oil to the egg yolk and apply it to your face and let dry 20 minutes. Then, rinse and put some moisturizing lotion on your face.
There's another method you can do by mashing half an avocado in a bowl and putting it on your face, and keeping it on for at least half an hour and rinsing.
Also, cut down on junk food if you eat a lot of it.
:) hope I helped :)

Hey hun! I just wanted to tell you that I know that it can be humuliating and horrible if you have acne. All teenagers get zits some more than others its part of being a teen! About a year ago, I thought my life was over when I started getting more blemishes than normal on my face, so my mom did buy me proactiv. It totally worked! within weeks almost days, my face became instantly clear! There are 3 steps to Proactiv. Clenser, Toner and lotion. The only bad part is that it is quite expensive but dramatically clear so i suggetst it. good luck

Proactive does work great but it might not work for you because you don't have that much acne like you said. Umm, you could use toothpaste to reduce the redness of your acne so you can't see it. Also, use some facial astringent. It'll help heal the acne. Hope I helped :)

try azzilyllic(sp?pronounced azz-ih-lil-ick) acid, which u can get from a pharmacy, it clears up acne overnight really well ( even if u dont have a lot )

Things that I have used are Facial Astringent, Facial Cream, and Aloe that you would most usually use for sun burns. I also use medicated acne cream. I hope it works for you.
