Phew! Thank Goodness!
I am telling you something… my Proactiv® products could not have come at a more opportune time! Well, I hate to call it opportune but quess who has just broken out? Yep, you guessed it! Little ol’ me…It’s not something I usually shout from the rooftops but, simply put, acne is a fact of life for me. The clarity of my skin depends on lots of variables, as I am sure it does yours… Mine depends on the time of the month, the weather, the amount of stress at my job or home, if I slept with my hand on my face (yes, sadly I can’t help it). I can have clear skin one day and acne on my face, chest and/or back another day.
Fortunately, for all of us there are products like Proactiv® out there. This particular breakout was not my worst but certainly was not enjoyable. I was in need for a spot treatment for a lovely blemish right on my chest and a couple on my chin that have been lingering. What did I pull from my Proactiv arsenal? The Proactiv® Advanced Blemish Treatment:
The Proactiv® Advanced Blemish Treatment helps erase problem pimples fast using the acne-fighting ingredient, benozoyl peroxide, that kills acne-causing bacteria on contact. KEY INGREDIENTS: What’s up 6 percent benzoyl peroxide (antibacterial); panthenol and allantoin (moisturizers)? In the past, I have used acne “spot treatment” gels that smelled medicinal and stung upon contact but Proactiv’s Blemish Treatment was quite the opposite. The cream seemed more like a lotion than a gel and had a very non-offensive smell . At first I was concerned that it might not work because it didn’t seem as “powerful” as something that smelled more potent and burned when it came into contact with a pimple… but I was wrong. I used the blemish treatment before bed and then the next morning and saw a difference within a day. My problem areas we becoming a thing of the past.
Obviously, I will get more blemishes in the future but The Proactiv® Advance Blemish Treatment is surely something handy to have hanging around for just that occasion. Best of all? I didn’t feel like it I sacrificed my skin’s moisture. This spot treatment helped clear up my skin without leaving it dry and flaky.
