Most of us have either seen or, at least flipped past the commercials or infomercials for Proactiv Solution on TV, it promises to clean up your skin of those unsightly affects of acne. But how well does it really work?

Proactiv Solution is a topical acne treatment product that is made with benzoyl peroxide, which is an ingredient that is known to help with acne related problems. It also contains an exfoliant, that helps to open up your pores, which can prevent future acne outbreaks. The third important ingredient is a moisturizing lotion, that keeps the skin from drying out, cracking, etc. Many people are allergic to benzoyl peroxide, so there has also been made, a “Gentle Formula” Proactiv Solution kit. This alternative version is made with salicylic acid, rather than benzoyl peroxide. The gentle formula might be the better choice for many, because benzoyl peroxide can also have side affects such as increased sensitivity to sunlight.

There are numerous testimonials that you can see for yourself online, written by actual people who have bought and tried Proactiv Solution and can give you an idea of what you can expect, if you should choose to try it out for yourself. Most people who have tried it seem to have gotten results of some degree, it is definitely among the best rated acne treatment products on the market. In many of the negative testimonials about the product, the problems consumers had, usually related to an allergic reaction or side affect from the use of benzoyl peroxide. These problems can easily be avoided by consulting a doctor before using it, to find out if you might be allergic to benzoyl peroxide. If you are, you can either try the Gentle Formula Proactiv Solution, or try another acne treatment that is made with something else.

The bottom line is that, like many topical acne treatments, Proactiv Solution can be great for dealing with acne related problems. It has the proven ingredients, as do many other products, but in some cases it’s just a matter of what your particular skin needs.
