ProActiv, the product that could possibly have the most celebrity endorsements than any other product out there in the world. Which celebrity are they going to reel in next? How about Tiger Woods? They can use a tag line, something along the lines of "Get the Ladies to Line Up for You!" And besides, Tiger could probably use the endorsement deal since he's lost so many already. Anyway I digress...First of all, I have to give credit to their marketing strategies because they did a good job of advertising their product. I really do believe that they are the first acne/facial cleanser to really push out ProActiv to the public, especially through TV. They have many celebrity endorsements, user reviews with before and after pictures, nonstop commercials, and infomercials. However, if I see another ProActiv commercial I will throw my shoe at my television. Enough already!
Not to get too carried away, the reason why I had to applaud their marketing efforts is because for a good two years of my life I had used their product. As a pubescent teenager going through hormonal changes, and in dire need of finding a solution to cure my acne, I bought into the whole idea that ProActiv would clear my skin. And did it? Maybe...
ProActiv did clear my skin to some extent. I did see a 70% decrease in acne, but I STILL HAD ACNE! I went from ten pimples on my face to three, but three is just as bad as having ten. Granted ProActiv did help clear up my skin, but it didn't clear it up completely. And that for me is not good enough as I am sure that nobody would be happy about having one or two pimples. If we all had a choice, we would choose to have no pimples at all.
So all in all, did ProActiv get rid of my acne? No. But did it help reduce my acne? Yes. Do I find it worth my money?... Well at 20 bucks a pop, which doesn't even include shipping or tax, no!
So what did I do to get rid of my acne and has only left my face pimple free? Stay tuned, as I reveal the product that freed me from the tyranny of acne...
But in the mean time, what do you think about ProActiv?
