@FallenKnightxx I`m not taking anyone else`s opinion... I used benzoyl peroxide (the main medicinal ingredient in Proactiv) for four years, and it seemed to keep my acne under control but I still had it... and eventually it stopped working and my acne got a lot worse. I`ve realized how damaging chemicals are and I don`t want to be dependent on something that may be harming me, and other people may not want to be either :)

I have been on bp for probably 5 years now...It keeps the acne at bay, but it never completely gets rid of it. I am getting really sick of it and want to get off of it. I usually use it every night; I am going to start trying it only every other night instead. I will let you know if I have a major breakout or not. Thanks for the advice!

i just use a tiny bit 0.5% bp everyday with moisturiser on top so i dont get flakey skin
Wouldn't the theory behind no-poo also apply to the face? That is, if you strip your face of oil everyday (or twice a day), your body compensates by producing more?

I've been eating healthy for 5 years, but still using proactiv.. I haven't noticed the BP aging me faster.. I still look younger. ^^;; It could be my diet that is helping. Anyways, I went raw 2 days ago because I am going to apply just the repairing lotion once a day, then every other day.. and so on, that you mentioned. :) Hopefully I don't break out badly. So yeah, a healthy diet, such as 80% + raw will help a lot.

@thugricanz A healthy diet and lifestyle is definitely the biggest key in looking good as you age!! And yes... hopefully that can overcome any effects of BP, but who knows :) Good for you for trying to get off it!
