So now I can't use it anymore. It was the only thing that ever worked for me though, so I'm back to horrible skin. If I could go back to it I would! Anybody wondering should try it, at least.
I was going to try proactive, but instead I started using Melaleuca acne wash(melaleuca.com) If you can, try their stuff.....I'm a preferred customer and cannot live without their products, but you can find their stuff on ebay. I only use a dime size amount(the first few times I used more and my skin dried out big time), and my skin has significantly cleared up, but I still have the dryness, redness, flaky skin in the chin area that I'm working on..... I switch back and forth between that and Nicole Miller facial wash....I get breakouts, but they are not as bad and clear up in a week or sooner as opposed to months and months of horrible skin!!! Like I said before....I just want to wake up one day and have clear, hair free skin!!!!!
