Fuck this horseshit company.
Does anyone know any generics I can put together that work?
I used to buy their products from a vending machine. It was overpriced, but fine. I don't want to give them my credit card or personal info, because I know that they sell it on to marketers, and that they commit you to automatically recurring payments, which only means being overcharged and spending hours in phone hell. Calling their customer service numbers to find a physical kiosk location just results in robot menus and Indians reading from scripts.
It's been 3 years since the vending machine I used to buy their product from was removed. I've avoided signing up or dealing with them for that long because of what a nightmare it is. I refuse, even if it means I'll keep having open sores and awful blackheads.
Fuck Proactiv.

Get a prescription for isotretinoin. After 6 months on that shit you will have clear skin for the rest of your life.

Most important piece of advice: don't get suckered in by someone else's routine, or worse, by some company's advertising. Don't spend a bunch of money on what works for someone else. Figure out exactly what you need and figure out exactly what works for you. No way around it.

It depends on your skin, im a chick with oily skin that gets dry and flaley aswell as small whiteheads, cysts, and blackheads. The cysts went away when i eliminated dairy and refined carbs, and the whiteheads/blackheads become limited to normal hormonal break outs by drinking 12 tall glasses of water a day and using neutrogena cleanser mask with 3.5 benzoyl peroxide and a freeman apple cider vinegar mask/scrub for exfoliation at night, maybe the BP when i wake up too greasy. I use a HA mask every few days.
Ive tried proactive, accutane, paulas choice, boscia etc etc but this worked for me.

Also fuck accutane i had to practically veil my face for months for no results and my hair fell out a bit.
