Does Proactive Really Work?

T.R. Humphrey
I have seen several commercials, ads, and even articles about how proactive works. They say that there is no other product that can compare! Proactive has been out in the market for quite sometime, but I never really paid attention to it. I never had an issue with acne. However, in the past couple of years I started having issues on my chin. So, I started paying more attention to the commercials about proactive. I wondered if the products really worked.

I was very hesitant to order over the internet. Only because I did not want to commit to reordering the products every three months. Which is what the site wanted me to do. It was the same situation with ordering on the phone. I really didn't want to deal with the commitment. I didn't even know if the product worked. Plus, I don't like pushy sales people! So instead of ordering the proactive I just went to the local store. That way I could avoid all the nonsense. In order not to sound like a proactive sales person; lets just say the other products stunk. They never took the issue away. Several months later my husband sees a proactive stand in the mall. He knew I had been interested and bought me the kit.

I have to say with all the celebrities out there like Jessica Simpson, Alyssa Milano, Vanessa Williams and Jennifer Love Hewitt endorsing proactive; they really never influenced my decision. Why would I trust them? I don't personally know them. Finally, I tried proactive out. Which I never really had much to lose, trying it anyway. They do offer a money back guarantee if you are not satisfied. I apologize if I sound like another ad for proactive. After all, there ads and commercials do get monotonous after a while. The true question is, does proactive work? My answer is yes and it did work for me. They do tell you to use it twice a day once in the morning and once at night. Which using it twice a day actually dried out my skin. They recommended that I use it once at night and now I am fine. I do love this product and I guess I am recommending it. I still think they overdo the commercials, but I could be over doing this article as well. The truth about any product is, that if the product is good, it will speak for itself.
