Should I stop using it ? (please read the detail)

I'm trying proactive and it's only making my skin worse. I honestly have 2 new whiteheads everyday. My skin tone looks like shit. (excuse my language) and around my nose is all raw. Is this just my skin getting use to it ? Or should I stop and get a new system going. I've been using for about 2 weeks . Twice a day

Stop using it I tried proactive and the same thing happened to me. I used it for about three weeks and every week my face just keep getting worse so I stopped and gAve my face a break for a week just washed it with a mild soap. I suggest trying Clinique I gave that a try two weeks after I stoped using proactive and my face has been really clear since. And that's been a over a year or so now. I only get an ocasonall zit now.

I used to use proactive and it didn't do anything . For me so I eventually stopped and I began to use other products

Stop using it. It is probably to harsh for your skin. You could try using it once a day and see if that helps. You might have sensitive skin so try to stay clear of to much benzoyl peroxide. Usually acne creams are drying so they can get rid of the zit but if it's been two weeks I would say its to harsh.

Stop using it. I tried proactiv and before I used my skin never got sensitive and has never gotten dry and I'm a swimmer so I was veryyy LUCKYYY. When I used proactiv I got really bad dry skin and it don't clear everything up. So yeah that's my story so u should stop using it. Oh also it has a LOT of chemicals it bleached my towel by patting my face on it.

My advice would be to stop using it. If its been 2 weeks, your skin should be improving not declining. You should go to your doctor and ask them to prescribe an acne medication. Thts what I did, my skin had never been better. Best of luck!
