Extra Strength Proactiv or Acne Free Severe to Clear?
I have been using proactiv for two months now...and no change. Should I switch to the extra strength formula kit? Or should i use the Acne Free Severe to Clear kit from the drugstore? I had tried the normal Acne Free acne kit last sumer, and it irritated my skin and I had to stop it before it could really start to work, but I didn't use a moisturizer with it and was in the sun a lot. Now I moisturize with spf like crazy so proactiv hasn't irritated my skin, and i'm thinking Acne Free won't either if i continue to moisturize. So from experience, would you recommend Proactiv Extra Strength, or Acne Free Severe to Clear??

Argh, acne is frustrating, period. Sounds like you’re doing great staying committed to your regimen. But two quick questions for you– are you using it both morning and night every day? Also, have you tried using the refining mask as a spot treatment on your really stubborn pimples? If not, give that a try each night. If you have already done that– and still no change– then it does sound like you need to step it up a notch– and you could really benefit from our Extra Strength formula of Proactiv. It’s formulated with the same prescription grade Benzoyl Peroxide that kills acne bacteria, but at a higher dose– 7.5%. SO, I’d recommend that you give our Skin Care Advisors a call (1-800-876-9717) to switch over to the Extra Strength. And PLEASE, if after you try that for 8 weeks too and you still don’t see results, go see a dermatologist so you don’t end up with scarring.
Hope this helps!

from experience I would recommend you do a bit of research about the ingredients you’re putting on your face.
Then a bit of research about Sensaria – naturally based skin care.
The bigger bang for your buck would be with the latter product.
All products are made with the finest botanical ingredients so you use less. Also Sensaria has a 100% Satisfaction Guarantee for a full year, plus the first 30 days they pay the shipping.
We even have SPF, but it is separate from the moisturizer because you do not need SPF at night therefore it is more cost effective and in order for the SPF to do the job it’s intended for you need to reapply it throughout the day.
