delivery is ontime but the parcel is too big for my order, so when i opened the box, all my stuff was scattered all over the box w/o any protection. good luck that i did not order anything that can be broke inside. the lotion is good and the expiration date is right. i love the price that i paid for and happy to save money this way..i'll order w/amazon again. thank you.

...not a paid spokesperson, or some flaky-fake person; and Proactiv really does work. And it works without peeling all of the skin off my face, or without making my entire face red and ugly. I have been using the Proactive 3-step kit for 2 years now; and it's one of the only things that really works for me consistently and effectively. I'm a fan! :)

I bought the Proactiv Repairing Lotion to replace another product I'd been using for a long time with poor results. The Proactiv lotion blew me away! It works better than I could have expected. A couple of things to note about it: 1. You might not need to use it every day. I put it on my forehead every night, but I use it more like an on the spot treatment for the rest of my face. I found that if I used it like a mask every night, within three days my skin was dried out and flaking off. I've had excellent results using it as described above. 2. The lotion has a bleaching effect on fabric. When you're done applying it, wash your hands with soap. Do not just wipe your hands off on a towel or it'll take the color out of it. Also, be mindful of the pillow case you use if you put it on at night. Once the Proactiv dries it's pretty stable, but I still wouldn't rest my head on a prized pillow case while using it.


5 out of 5 stars Excellent. The only part of Proactiv's 3 step program that's necessary   April 5, 2010

If you talk to any dermatologist worth his or her salt, they'll tell you there's no point in washing with a benzoyl peroxide cleanser, because when you rinse it off, you rinse off the expensive medicine too! Why bother with the whole Proactiv system; it's absurdly overpriced. That said, their lotion is pretty much irreplaceable, since it has the medication in a lotion form, which is exceedingly rare.

Use Purpose or Cetaphil cleanser with Proactiv's lotion AT NIGHT. In the morning, use the same cleanser, but you'll need to use a moisturizer/sunscreen combo to prevent skin cancer, so you cannot use this stuff! Try Aveeno Daily Moisturizer spf 30 or Neutrogena Healthy Defense spf 30 or 45. Both are very good (and noncomedogenic) and recommended by many dermatologists.

Be SURE you never use a moisturizer or a suncreen (either separately or as a combo) that has zinc oxide - zinc oxide turns your skin white because it is a "physical" blocker - it literally lays on top of your skin instead of being absorbed into it.

Dan's Regimen from acne dot org is okay, except for the fact his daily moisturizer lacks an spf, and except for the fact some people prefer a lotion benzoyl peroxide treatment at night instead of a gel. Amazon has a 2oz bottle for $9, which is cheaper than you can get it on ebay.

Perhaps one day when the Acnefree lotion or the Klear Action lotion are sold separately, it will be cheaper than this stuff, but until then, Proactiv is the cheapest 2.5% benzoyl peroxide lotion on the market.

Edit 8/26/10 I purchased a bottle of the "New" proactiv lotion two weeks ago. It has a very strong, very irritating fragrance that made me break out. Proactiv's website even addresses the issue, saying it's "better" than the old stuff, and is "micronized". They do NOT address the new fragrance! I have since switched to Acnefree's "repair lotion", which is 3.7% benzoyl peroxide. It is slightly gritty, but fragrance free, and time-released. You can get it on ebay much cheaper than Proactiv is on Amazon or ebay. I highly recommend switching to AcneFree.
