wash with a water soluble cleanser like cetaphil or paulas choice(cosmeticscop.com).in the Am and Pm.
PM after cleansing use beta hydroxy lotion to exfoliate(.paulas choice is the best.)beta hydroxy has the ability to penetrate the pore and rid the pore of the debris inside the pore.
Only moisturize where you feel dry
For active breakouts use benzoil peroxide to disinfect the bacteria.
Drinks tons of water.
This will work I promise you if you are faithfull to do this everyday.
you will see a difference in about 4 weeks give or take a few days.
Let me know how it goes for you Love Venora

proactiv never worked for my either. i recently switched to the new line at bath and body works called wexler. it works pretty good so far. The cleanser did dry out my skin a little because its very high in benzyne peroxide (the indredient that fights acne). so i used the moisterizer with it as well. im happy with it and believe me, i struggle with my acne. ive got trouble with my shoulders and back. what made me switch from proactiv recently was my chest began breaking out really badly and it came on so sudden. and of course i struggle with acne on my face, but wexlers been controlling it, though still not great for the shoulders.
