Re: tired of acne and ready to try the natural way (help)!!!
Hi El Sol,
Sorry to hear about your problem. I learned that you used to use Proactiv but you stopped. I would like to share with you my experience with Proactiv; how it helps to control my
Acne problem. The trick here is how to use proactiv correctly.
As you know proactiv is quite a strong
Acne cream. It is known to control your
Acne (as you said, it did help you). But if overused it can cause redness and yes, breakouts still happen once a while.
FYI, I have been using proactiv for almost 6 years now and i am finally happy to tell you that I have found the best way on how to use it. So here's my advice you.
Try to adopt proactiv again. Use it twice a day for the first few weeks. If you see redness occur, try to reduce to once a day. Now the trick is this: Just use the whole 3 steps for, say, 4 weeks. Then just use the cleanser (without the moisturizer and toner). Try to adopt different moisturizer (i personally use clinique). For the mask, try to use natural ingredients (i personally use honey and oat). Try to practice this for few months, 3 months at least and see the difference yourself.
I can now tell you that I am now less dependent on proactiv. Believe it or not, I use it once a week and my acne is now under control.
And, you can also use your Proactiv cleanser to your acne on your arms and body. It works too! Oh and also, what you eat matters! So watch your diets. Believe me, your diet helps.
I wish you all the best! Check out my site. I created this site to share my experience with Proactiv.
