Customer Reviews of Proactiv Solution Original Repairing Lotion 2 ozCustomer Review: Excellent. The only part of Proactiv's 3 step program that's necessary Summary: 5 Stars
If you talk to any dermatologist worth his or her salt, they'll tell you there's no point in washing with a benzoyl peroxide cleanser, because when you rinse it off, you rinse off the expensive medicine too! Why bother with the whole Proactiv system; it's absurdly overpriced. That said, their lotion is pretty much irreplaceable, since it has the medication in a lotion form, which is exceedingly rare.
Use Purpose or Cetaphil cleanser with Proactiv's lotion AT NIGHT. In the morning, use the same cleanser, but you'll need to use a moisturizer/sunscreen combo to prevent skin cancer, so you cannot use this stuff! Try Aveeno Daily Moisturizer spf 30 or Neutrogena Healthy Defense spf 30 or 45. Both are very good (and noncomedogenic) and recommended by many dermatologists.
Be SURE you never use a moisturizer or a suncreen (either separately or as a combo) that has zinc oxide - zinc oxide turns your skin white because it is a "physical" blocker - it literally lays on top of your skin instead of being absorbed into it.
Dan's Regimen from acne dot org is okay, except for the fact his daily moisturizer lacks an spf, and except for the fact some people prefer a lotion benzoyl peroxide treatment at night instead of a gel. Amazon has a 2oz bottle for $9, which is cheaper than you can get it on ebay.
Perhaps one day when the Acnefree lotion or the Klear Action lotion are sold separately, it will be cheaper than this stuff, but until then, Proactiv is the cheapest 2.5% benzoyl peroxide lotion on the market.
Edit 8/26/10 I purchased a bottle of the "New" proactiv lotion two weeks ago. It has a very strong, very irritating fragrance that made me break out. Proactiv's website even addresses the issue, saying it's "better" than the old stuff, and is "micronized". They do NOT address the new fragrance! I have since switched to Acnefree's "repair lotion", which is 3.7% benzoyl peroxide. It is slightly gritty, but fragrance free, and time-released. You can get it on ebay much cheaper than Proactiv is on Amazon or ebay. I highly recommend switching to AcneFree.
Description of Proactiv Solution Original Repairing Lotion 2 ozStep three of our Proactiv® Solution daily essentials, this light, luxurious lotion contains 2.5% finely milled benzoyl peroxide to penetrate deep beneath the skin's surface to help stop acne at its source.
