Proactiv+ Review | Reseña

Today I bring you a review on the whole Proactiv line

This particular one is called Proactiv+ which claims to be even better 

than the regular one. 

Since I was a teenager I was always seeing these products commercials on TV

staring different actors and actresses. But I never really had an acne prone skin.

I do breakout from time to time, mostly by stress or that time of the month. 



So, a month ago or so, (Could be more, Im not sure) I had the opportunity to get 

a box including 5 products from the Proactiv+ line.

Today Im going to be reviewing 2 products intended for the face and 

part of the 3 step system. The reason I don"t review the face wash is because since 

I have dry skin, I thought it would be too harsh on my skin. 





So, Im gonna be reviewing the Pore Targeting Treatment and 

the Complexion Perfecting Hydrator  

What is Proactiv+?

Proactiv+ is an acne-treatment system that delivers skincare in every step. 

Formulated not only to heal, treat, and clear acne, it also helps to diminish the evidence 

of past breakouts, restoring skin to its healthy-looking appearance.

What the brand claims:

The fastest, gentlest, most effective Proactiv® 

acne treatment ever!

With Smart Target®  Technology which delivers more 

acne medicine to the pore!

_________

Ok, so lets talk about the ingredients:

Benzoyl Peroxide is widely known as an anti-acne treatment because it starts 

killing bacteria on contact in the pores, where acne starts. You"ll find it in steps 

1 and 2 of Proactiv+. Its the No.1 medicine used for treating acne but since is 

SO STRONG it can cause skin irritation on some people. 

Glycolic Acid (an alpha hydroxyl acid) and Salicylic Acid (anti-acne treatment) 

are excellent at sloughing off dead skin cells so that pores don?t become clogged. 

This also helps to minimize the look of pores and give an all-over radiance to skin. 

This on is in Step 1 and 3. 

Sulfur is another important ingredient because it not only helps to control excess oil, 

it helps with the redness and irritation that comes with acne. Used in the right sequence 

 in the Proactiv+ formulations, these tried and true ingredients can control your acne.






 The Pore Targeting Treatment is designed to deliver 2X more acne-fighting 

Benzoyl Peroxide directly into pores with our exclusive Smart Target® technology

Im not a fan of this product cause I started having different reactions after using it 

 such as dryness, itching, burning, peeling, redness and slight swelling

Apparently my skin is too sensitive for Benzoyl Peroxide, not to mention I have 

mostly dry skin and only break out on my period. So I would recommend this product

only if you have combination to oily skin and are REALLY struggling with acne 

or black heads. 



The Complexion Perfecting Hydrator helps keep pores clear of debris with salicylic 

and glycolic acids while also creating a visibly hydrated, even toned complexion with 

our specially selected Skin Brightening Complex and Moisturizing Complex.

I love this stuff. I swear by it!

This is one of the best moisturizer I"ve use in my life. I love the texture and 

how it glades on the skin. Making it feel smooth and moisturized. Another great thing 

is that it doesn"t feel tacky after it dries, cause the formula is between a gel and a cream. 

My skin looks healthy, hydrated and luminous after I started using this product. 

I use it twice a day but I can feel my face hydrated for the entire day 

even if I apply it once.

This is the best product in the kit in my opinion, but then again, they are 

supposed to work together for better looking skin. 

Is there any other skin care product I should try?

Until next post;
