Has anyone used PROACTIV acne medicine?

[Feralpeg]

Now, another question. Has anyone used Exposed? According to the research I've done, it is supposed to work as well as Proactive only it is less harsh and drying.

Here is a link comparing the different products.

I can't comment on Proactiv, but wanted to pass along some advice I wish I'd heard long ago. If your DD wears foundation or blush and is "very active and involved in sports," it could help her skin if she removes the makeup before exercising. Also, if she uses any products in her hair like gel or hairspray, she could wear a bandana or headband when she exercises to keep the products from reaching her face when she sweats. Hope she finds something that works for her. It's such a tough age!

Tonight I ordered the Proactiv Solution 5-piece Acne Essentials Kit from QVC.

• 
  * 4-oz renewing cleanser
  * 4-oz revitalizing toner
  * 2-oz repairing lotion
  * 8-oz deep cleansing wash
  * 0.33 oz advanced blemish treatment

I have really sensetive skin so if I don't like it I'll send it back. I'm using it to hopefully clean out my pores that normal cleanser/toner doesn't work, get rid of the little unformed acne on my chin, clear up my nose area and t-zone.

I'll let you all know after I get it.

It's here it's here! But it came without instructions. How do you use it? Any special order?

My review: 3 uses later.

Since it didn't come with instructions I created my own system.

I used the deep cleaning wash at night and then the toner. I did that for 2 nights. One morning I used the deep cleansing wash, toner and lotion.
Tonight I used the deep cleansing scrub and then the lotion.

The Sunday after my second time using the cleanser and toner it looked like my pores were worse, bigger, ikkier, all around nastier than I had seen them (Ya, TMI but I'm getting to my point. I promise.) Monday I attempted to cover up the best I could (I'm sure it wasn't noticible to others just to me) and used the wash and toner last night. I woke up this morning and my pores were smaller than I had seem them in a long time. They aren't as ikky either. Tonight I tried the deep cleaning cleanser and used the lotion. I'll update again tomorrow.

I use Dove foaming wash in the AM still. I have really sensetive skin and I don't want to overdo it. I'll be using the cleanser in moderation and rotate between the toner and the lotion.

Thanks to all who recommended this product!
