Proactiv Solution is based on the concept of Combination Therapy® - a combination of products working together to fight acne, each enhancing the effectiveness of the others. You will receive optimum results by using them as directed.

Yes, you can use Proactiv Solution on any blemish-prone area. If you are particularly prone to body acne, you may want to visit the Body Care section of our online catalog - we have developed a special line of products for body acne.
Keep it in the shower so that you remember to use it daily.

Follow these simple steps twice a day everyday for a great complexion!

Step 1: Renewing Cleanser - Apply a small (dime-sized) amount to dampened/wet skin and gently massage for 1-2 minutes. Rinse thoroughly with warm water. Pat dry. Note: Renewing Cleanser contains benzoyl peroxide, which can bleach towels and fabrics.
Step 2: Revitalizing Toner - Apply to cleansed skin with a cotton ball or pad. Allow to dry.
Step 3: Repairing Lotion - Apply a thin layer (pea-sized) to the entire affected area. Allow to dry. Do not rinse off. If going outside, use a sunscreen. Note: Repairing Lotion contains benzoyl peroxide, which can bleach towels and fabrics.

The recommended age to begin using Proactiv® Solution is 12 years and older, however the products are safe and effective for all age groups with adolescent and adult acne breakouts. For pre-teens, we recommend that you start slowly, by using the products every other day. However, if you are unsure, we suggest that you consult your dermatologist, before using the products.

Our Refining Mask is formulated with sulfur, a proven acne-fighting ingredient that reaches deep into pores where blemishes begin. Cool, soothing Kaolin, (also known as China Clay) helps absorb excess surface oils while our special formula soothes inflammation and refines skin tone and texture. For best results use 2 or 3 times a week. Start with Cleanse - Step 1 to remove dirt, oil and impurities and leave your skin with a clean slate.
Then apply the Refining Mask to dampened skin and leave on for 10 minutes. Rinse thoroughly with warm water.
For best results, follow with Tone - Step 2 and Repair - Step 3.
The mask can also be used on spots, left overnight and then washed off.

It is important to keep all skin types hydrated for a healthy appearance. The right moisturiser will not aggravate acne or increase oiliness. In fact, it can actually improve the look and texture of your skin. Even oily skin can become dry and flaky on the surface. Look for one that is oil-free and non-comedogenic, which means it won't clog pores. Some moisturisers also contain acne-fighting medications such as salicylic acid to help exfoliate dead skin and brighten your complexion. Try our Oil Free Moisturiser with SPF 15 for daytime or Green Tea Moisturiser and Clarifying Night Cream for nighttime treatment.

Our Daily Oil Control helps control excess oil throughout the day to keep skin from shining and makeup from streaking. Daily Oil Control gently balances the skin while keeping your skin hydrated and healthy looking. Directions: Use after Repairing Lotion. Apply to entire face with fingertips.

Yes, but the ingredients used in Proactiv Solution may make your skin more sensitive to the sun. You should always wear a sunscreen of at least SPF 15... apply Proactiv Solution first, then the sunscreen.

Since the ingredients used in Proactiv Solution may make your skin more sensitive to the sun, we suggest you avoid tanning beds - and always wear an oil-free sunscreen.

Yes, you can still wear make-up...but always look for products that are non-comedogenic and oil-free. And always remove make-up before working out. Check out the Sheer Cover line of mineral make-up at www.sheercover.in for a flawless finish without harming the skin.

Unfortunately, there is no cure for acne. Acne is caused by a combination of factors, including hormones, bacteria, overabundance of oil, and plugging of skin pores - not by how often you wash your face or the foods you eat. Fortunately, acne is controllable with continued daily use of products such as Proactiv Solution.

Individual results may vary, some people see results as early as 3 weeks, but on the average, visible results start within 6-8 weeks.
Many of our customers find that a complete clearing of their complexion takes anywhere from 3-6 months. This is achieved through the recommended and consistent use (twice a day). There is no cure for acne, but it is controllable with continued daily use of products such as Proactiv.

Absolutely! Proactiv is suitable for most people of all ages and nationalities. We do recommend you do a patch test to ensure you don't experience any irritation. Once a day apply a small amount of Cleanse - Step 1 orRepair - Step 3 to the nape of your neck or to the underside of your neck at the jaw-line for 3 consecutive days. Check for any signs of irritation. If irritation occurs please consult your doctor.
Benzoyl Peroxide products may bleach or discolour towels and fabrics. Wash hands after use and allow skin to dry completely before coming into contact with clothing. Keep away from eyes, lips, mouth and sensitive areas of the neck. If excessive swelling, irritation, redness or peeling occurs, discontinue use. If these persist, consult a physician.

If you experience redness when you first use Proactiv Solution, you may be sensitive to benzoyl peroxide. If this happens, stop using the system for two days. When your skin begins to improve, resume using the Renewing Cleanser and Revitalizing Toner daily. To slowly build a tolerance for benzoyl peroxide, use the Repairing Lotion twice a week at night. Gradually increase nightly usage of the Repairing Lotion, as tolerated. If redness persists, stop using the product and consult your doctor.

Acne is cyclical condition. It may last many years, and you may experience periods of improvement followed by flare-ups, and vice-versa. The medications used in Proactiv Solution should continue to be effective for as long as you use the products as directed. If your flare-ups continue or increase in severity, consult your dermatologist.
