Ok so i have had the proactive kit for a while and i have quite a few questions about this. When answering answer as many as possible and number them corresponding to the number of the question.
1. How long should the whole process take cleanser toner and lotion?
2. How much toner should i apply?
3. How much lotion should i apply?
4. When is the best time of the day or during the multistep process to use the refining mask?
5. When it says to leave it on over night, do they suggest that i apply it after lotion or somthing and just leave it and wash it in the morning or what?
6. When i use proactive in the evening do i wash off the lotion that sank in from the morning or just dampen the skin and start all over again?
7. My skin gets tight after using proactive and i have a lotion but it has the oils of like fruits and other things like coconut is this good to use?|||dont waste your money
How to stop Acne in its tracks:
======================
1. Liquid soap on a sponge is better than cake soap.
2. The alcohol is available from the hardware store
Acne is caused by oil clogging pores in the skin. Attack this oil source and acne will be more easily to control. Diet also plays a part so lay off the rich foods.
The oil comes from your scalp under the hair. It creeps down your skin to clog pores. This is why the face and shoulders get acne.
To get rid of oil, wash your scalp with a good shampoo for oily scalp/hair, massaging your scalp and rinse off the oil. You should do this at least 25 times a month, meaning shower every day. You may want to include using a special scalp medical shampoo say 2-3 times per month (eg anti dandruff).
Note the shampoo is selected to get rid of oil, if your hair becomes dry, then use a conditioner to suit dry hair. You need to find a conditioner to suit the consequence of showering every day.
Shower and conditioner your hair first, and then wash the residue off your skin starting from the face and going down. Use a sponge with liquid soap from the supermarket to wash your skin. It is important that you shampoo your scalp before the rest of your body, so that the oil is removed from your body afterwards by the sponge..
Alcohol is a great sterilizing wipe to clean existing oils from your skin also, as some of the oils come from the skin. But don’t overdo it as could dry the skin.
(as a guide I suggest only use alcohol after the pimple patrol below)
Severe Acne sufferers should see a chiropractor as neck miss-alignment can cause acne, especially along the jawbone.
How to stop Acne scarring:
====================
Find the volcano centre part of the pimple by rolling the shank of a pin or needle across the pimple. Gently centre it in a squeeze then using the sterilized pin, prick the centre of the pimple. You may have to prick 3 to 5 mm deep at right angles to the skin, depending on the size of the pimple. The idea is to lance the pimple, to make a hole for the infection to come out. Squeeze the infection out of the hole, just like a volcano erupting. Because the skin has a hole, it is not tearing and there will be no scarring as long as you haven’t squeezed too hard. Remember the idea is to make a hole for it to come out, so the hole has to be accurate and into the infection core.
Any pimples that are difficult hit it with an Acne cream and try again the next day.
Sterilize the skin with alcohol.
With skill you can find these volcano centres under the skin before they are really noticeable. I suggest doing a pimple patrol on Wednesdays so you are cool for the weekend.
A good psych is to say “Good riddance Freeloader” on each success.|||1: total of 2 or 3 minutes (let toner dry)
2: use enough to cover entire facee..... the size of a quarter
3: the size of a dime (thin layer across face)
4: use refining mask for on the spot pimples before you go to bed (little dab)
5: yes you put it on, then remove in the morning
7: NO! dont use frangranced lotions... just excess oils which lead to pimples. use use either lubriderm lotion, clearisil lotion, cetaphil, or clinique... clinique is deffininely the best
i hope you the best of luck !|||proactive doesn%26#039;t work. me and my friends have used and it just made my skin worse. try clean and clear or neutrogina|||1. About 5 minutes all together.
2. The best way is to use cotton wool balls for the toner and apply as necessary.
3. You only need a small amount of lotion about the size of a 5c piece, as a small amount goes a long way.
4. Use the refining mask after you have completed the 3 steps (cleanser toner and lotion) you can do this anytime of the day.
5. Don%26#039;t leave the refining mask on overnight. Wash the mask off after about 10 minutes, or when you can feel the mask getting firmer. They are reffering to the other 3 steps, which you leave on over night.
6. Not sure about this one however, in the morning I usually have a shower first and wash my face with soap, then use the proactive. I think it would be better to wash your face first and then apply it again. (It%26#039;s worked for me.)
7. When you first start using proactive your skin will get tight, although this will ease the more you use it. As long as its not painful, I don%26#039;t see why you should use any other lotion, as this may effect the outcome of the proactive.
Ive used proactive for about 6 months now and i love it.
It works!
Good luck.
(:|||1)3-5min. Let the toner(step2) dry b4 u put on the lotion.
2)Just a small 10c piece size.
3)Just a small 10c piece size.
4)Not during the day, use the mask AT NIGHT. Wash your face so surface oil/dirt is gone. Then use the mask 4 10-15min. After 15min wash it off using the 3pc kit.
5)Some ppl use the mask on the whole face overnight.
DONT put the mask on over the lotion. The 2 negate the effects of 1 another. Clay(in the mask) draws out impurties in the skin, so if u put it on after the lotion u%26#039;ll just be pullin out the lotion, thus wasting your $.
6)Yes in the evening go thru all 3 steps. Wash off the product u put on in the morning, as well as all the oil %26amp; dirt that has accumulated during the day.
7)Skin gets tight bc ProActiv is making your pores close %26amp; smaller. Having smaller pores is good bc then less dirt can get in.
DONT USE LOTION. Use teh step3 lotion. If your face gets dry then use an oil free noncomedogenic moisturizer. Usualy the ProActiv comes comes w a green tea mositurizer, so use that.
Good luck! I used ProActiv %26amp; it worked so well. I shouldnt have ever stopped bc my acne came back.
