Proactiv got rid of my friends acne, but didn work for me – why?
There is good science behind Proactiv and that is why it works for some people. But Proactiv skin care products just are not strong enough for people with stubborn acne and/or the skin adapts to the regimen. For most people, Proactiv seems to work nicely for about three weeks and then it seems to stop working. Since Proactiv never gets to see your skin or talk to you about how your skin is reacting or adapting, they can’t very well recommend the products strong enough to get rid of acne conditions that are difficult. It takes potent exfoliants and anti-bacterials used in the right way to get acne under control. If you don’t have someone guiding you through this process, you will either: 1. Not have strong enough products and you will still have acne; or 2. The products will be to too strong or you will use too much too soon and irritate your skin and you will still have acne.
