Proactiv Acne Cream

Acne is a problem that can affect any age, ranging from babies all the way up to adults. Contrary to popular belief, acne is not caused by dirt or greasy foods. Acne results when hair follicles become clogged, with oil, dead skin cells, or sebum, the material produced to keep the skin moist. The pores become clogged weeks before a pimple actually develops, so the best way to avoid acne is to keep your pores clean on a regular basis.

This is where Proactiv Acne Cream comes in. Because acne cannot be cured, it is important to keep the skin clean on a regular basis. Proactiv offers a three step face care system that works to keep the pores clean on a daily basis, as well as helps to heal the skin once acne has occurred. Unlike over-the-counter products, Proactiv works on the entire face, rather than just targeting one pimple at a time. It works to clear up already existing pimples in only a few days, and prevents further breakouts from occurring.

The first step in the Proactiv Acne Cream system is the Renewing Cleanser, which works to gently exfoliate the skin and clean them out using benzoyl peroxide. It clears the skin of dead skin cells and excess oils, but does so without causing irritation to the skin. It is an oil-free formula that contains small grains, which makes it possible to penetrate the pores to kill bacteria and prevent acne from occurring. When applied, it gives a soothing and tingly sensation, which lets the user know it is working to heal the skin and get rid of stubborn acne.

The second step is the Revitalizing Toner, which is a refreshing, alcohol-free toner that helps to soothe the skin after washing. When applied to the face with a cotton ball or pad, the toner helps to wipe away dead skin cells and supplies the pores with bacteria killing agents. The soothing botanicals help to even out your skin tone, and remove excess oil to keep your skin looking fresh all day long. It can be worn right under makeup, and can keep your skin feeling hydrated all day long.

The final step in the Proactiv Acne cream treatment is the Repairing Lotion, which actually protects the skin from future breakouts. It is a thin, oil-free product that feels light on the face, and uses benzoyl peroxide to heal acne that has already occurred. It works to soothe the skin after exfoliation, and closes the pores to prevent them from being clogged.

Proactiv also offers many other products, all which target the direct cause of acne. With a wide variety of lotions, skin masks, and other acne targeting products, the Proactiv Acne Cream system makes it possible to get clear skin and keep it that way. Some of the products are offered for free when packages are purchased, while others can be purchased in a wide variety of sizes. When the three step system is used on a regular basis, once in the morning and once at night, getting rid of acne and preventing it from returning can happen in only a few short weeks.
