How does proactive work?

It may seem like time screeches to a halt when you get a pimple. But the truth of the matter is that the breakout that shows up on your face is the end result of a cycle that started weeks earlier when your pore became clogged with dead skin cells. Oil then collected in the pore creating a playground for p. acnes bacteria to feed and breed, which led to the throbbing, red, tender bump that is making your day miserable.

You brush all of your teeth every day, not just the ones that have cavities, so why not treat your entire face instead of the pimples that you can actually see.
Our Combination Therapy approach is a preventative strategy that provides you with a complete, multi-step skincare regimen including cleansing, toning, and hydration together with acne-fighting medicine. These acne-fighters attack acne at every stage of the cycle, helping to stop current breakouts in their tracks and new ones from forming. It’s recommended by dermatologists for a reason — it works!
