I had a very bad experience with proactive. The acne actually got worse & it was painful. My sister had the same reaction, it got so bad that she didn't want to leave the house for about 2-3 days. It could be because we both have sensitive skin though, being that it did work for my cousin and my co worker. The best advice I can give is to apply it on a small section, for about a day or two to make sure that you don't get a negative reaction. Good Luck & I'm glad it worked for you ladies
