Between the ages of 14 and 29, not a day went past that I didn’t have pimples and to me they’re very unattractive and they give the impression that a person is unhealthy, but it’s not necessarily the case. I spent a lot of time in customer service and to put my best face forward I actually found that I was hiding my pimples behind my hair by wearing my hair down to cover up the pimples and I’d also used very heavy foundations and concealers. Unfortunately, what that does is create a vicious cycle and I was getting more breakouts by using those foundations. What I really needed was a solution like Proactiv Solution.

I think any person wants to live their best life and for me, having pimples wasn’t allowing me to do that. I don’t want to have to wear make-up if I don’t want to and I felt like I always had to cover them up to look my best and especially when you’re in the customer eye all the time, you want them to be focusing on, on what’s coming out of your mouth and what you’re saying to them rather than what’s going on around your face.

I’m very glad that I’ve found Proactiv Solution.

I consider myself as a quite a strong character, but having pimples does always put a hole in your soul I would say. You don’t want them. You despise them. They always come when you don’t want them. If you’re going to have a wedding or you are going out to a formal, the last thing you want, and that’s always when you get your worst breakout. So, pimples have affected my life, but I have managed and I do feel very sorry for all of those people that have had severe cases, far worse than mine, and that’s why I want to give this message to help other people to be able to find a solution like I did.

Before Proactiv, I felt that there was never going to be a solution for me. I thought that I would grow out of the pimples in my teenage years and that just was not the case. I mean, by the time I reached 29, I was wondering, well I’m not a teenager anymore. When is this going to end? And it just wasn’t ending for me.

I found out about a Proactiv when I was watching the infomercials late at night. I actually sat there watching those infomercials thinking, that product is far too good to be true. I can’t believe the stories. I was very skeptical, very negative. I couldn’t bring myself to actually ring up and buy because I didn’t wanna be another sucker. I was actually on a holiday with my sister and we happened to be in a shopping mall and we saw the Proactiv stand and I said to her, “Gee, I’d love to give that product a try.” And she said, “Well, what if I buy it for your 30th birthday?” because it was six weeks leading up to my 30th birthday and I thought, well if that works, that would be the best present I could ever imagine.

So she did buy me the product and I was so excited to use it. I took some before photos, just to see, and I figured if it doesn’t work, I would get my money back. Three days later, the fire in the pimples had died right down. They were not as red as what they were. Within six days they had flattened, like the pimples weren’t as raised. And then, within six weeks I had no pimples left. There was some scarring. And in my birthday card that my sister gave me, for my 30th birthday, she wrote on the card to say, “You look more beautiful every day.”

I’m so grateful to the makers of Proactiv Solution for giving me something that I know can control my pimples and breakouts and I would highly recommend it to anyone out there who’s suffering with pimples or acne breakouts to try the product. You just don’t know, it may help you just the way it has helped me.

Proactiv has saved me time, money, and worry. I don’t have to spend the time in the mirror anymore checking on pimples. I haven’t had to spend any money on products that aren’t going to work for me because I’ve found my solution and it’s Proactiv Solution. And I don’t have to worry anymore about people looking at my pimples instead of what I’m actually saying to them.

Before Proactiv, I had unhealthy, pimply skin and after Proactiv, I have beautiful, clear skin.

I would tell people who are looking at the infomercials, thinking along the same lines that I was, that it’s too good to be true, it’s not going to work; I think you should try it because you could be as lucky as I am and you’ll have clear skin.
