False alarm...

...on the Proactive. The only difference I've noticed is... now my towels look like I splashed bleach on them. (something in the solution is strong enough to stain my towels...but not clear up my face. Nice.) Soooo, any suggestions on what to use on my face? I am still breaking out!

what pill are you on?

maybe change pills? it may seriously save you some aggravating and pricey experimentation with face solutions, washes, etc.

What about the detergent/fabric softner you use on your sheets? Maybe you've developed an allergy. Are you a side sleeper? You could try changing pillow cases a couple times a week. My sister uses a perscription grade acne fighter. I'll find out what it is.

I'm breaking out too. I stopped breastfeeding and my hormones are in full blast. Ugh!

I also used to use proactive and it worked great, but then it just stopped working. I called them and they told me my skin probably became immuned to it!! Crazy, I know! My towels and also some of my clothes got ruined along the way, so I have since changed to all white towels. Now I use acne free which you can find at Wal-mart for much cheaper than proactive, but supposedly it works better. It is working for me, but I have been off proactive for over a year now, so maybe my skin is no longer immuned to it! They have acne free regular and a severe strength one. I have the severe strength! It's just hard for me to do it twice a day, but I really try to make myself before I go to bed. I get much better results that way!
