I have quite problematic skin in that even in my 30s I still get a lot of spots like I am a teenager, so when I was asked to review the Proactiv Skin Solutions I jumped at the chance. I did use it in the past and it was fantastic and I don’t know why I didn’t continue to use it. I had quite a bad break out on my skin due to kidney problems. The reason being is my kidneys don’t get rid of the toxins out of my body the way they should. So I broke out in huge big boil spots. I was hideous. I would post a picture, but I’m too embarrassed. Make up only covers so much as we know.
I was sent a bottle of the Proactiv Solutions Cleanser, Toner, Repairing Treatment, Mattifying Gel and some Makeup Remover pads. The entire kit to get my skin into shape.
First up I used the Makeup Remover wipes, these are pretty self explanatory but they were the best makeup remover wipes I have ever use. They were thick, soft and easy to use. The packaging was also excellent, the cover is made of plastic and clicks shut. So you don’t have the problem of it drying out like you do other wipes with the cellophane cover. The make up came off very easily.
Next I use the Renewing Cleanser. Put it on your face and rinse with some warm water. It doesn’t smell all that nice but it works and feels good on your skin, it also doesn’t over dry like some anti bacterial washes. Next on the things to do for better skin is the Revitalising toner, a small amount on some cotton wool, rub over your face and your done. Last is the Repairing lotion, just a small 5p amount and rub over your face using your finger tips. Job done. Easily done even with a child hanging onto your leg, I know. Make sure you do this morning and night and you will notice a difference within a week. It works that quick.
The Mattifying gel is used after the repairing treatment, it doesn’t have to be used every day. I wore it underneath my makeup to keep my skin shine free and it worked.
The science bit “This system, developed by dermatologists, uses Combination TherapyTM to help heal and stop breakouts at their source. Includes: Renewing Cleanser to wash away excess oil and dirt Revitalising Toner to balance skin tone Repairing Lotion to help attack bacteria.”
I cannot recommend this product enough, if you are having breakout problems, this is the product for you. Even to prevent breakouts keep using it, I know I will.
