I am not an actress being paid millions to endorse Proactive. I am a real, 40 something year old mother of two young boys. I will say, my obsession and experience with skin care products of all types and brands over the past 25 years has given me an edge; what works and what doesn’t. I am a certified beauty product junkie.
I am not going to get into the ingredients and how they work on your skin, what I am going to accomplish in this article are two main components; does it really work and is the price worth it.
I was about 37 years old when I started getting adult onset acne as my dermatologist informed me on one of my many visits for this troubling ugly issue on my face that the whole world could see. I had deep hard purple blemishes, white heads, black heads and huge nodules that would scar and last for months. Needless to say I was completely mortified to even leave my house on some occasions. There were many times, I simply lived in baseball caps to cover up the huge blemishes.
I tried every product on the market, from the most expensive to the least expensive. Products from my plastic surgeons office, antibiotics from my dermatologist and anything that touted acne free clear skin. I must have spent hundreds, more like thousands of dollars on treatments, products and home remedies. All fruitless attempts and wasted money.
There was one product left. You guessed it Proactiv. I ordered it off the internet, with lack luster hopes of it actually working. I knew no one who’d ever tried the product, so I was sailing into unchartered waters. It arrived neatly packaged with a laminated instructional card, and a book on how to achieve acne free skin once and for all. I opened the box like it was Christmas, tearing at it to get to my miracle skin care solutions inside.
After one week of religiously following the 3 step miracle cure on the laminated card, which I had taped to my bathroom mirror. I was amazed and in awe of the results, acne free clear skin as promised by the company!! You can only imagine my elation, no more hats, no more major thick cover-up creams, just gorgeous clear skin.
I proceeded to enroll in their monthly shipment plan, which costs about $67.00 US dollars with shipping fees. I quickly figured out after about two months of shipments, I had to much product. The company simply lets you choose how many times a year you would like your Proactiv shipped to you. I chose ever other month. Also, another great quality of this company, is you may cancel at any time. You are not locked into some crazy contract ending up with 10 years of unwanted product cluttering up your bathroom.
Conclusion; does Proactiv really do what it says – YES. Is it worth the price, isn’t your face priceless?
