"Figuring out a routine for acne-prone skin is challenging, but this kit makes it easy. It's not only perfect for travel but includes everything you need to target breakouts. The three-step routine consists of a sulfur-based cleanser, the Azelaic Pore Perfector to help decongest buildup in the pores and improve skin texture, and a moisturizer that contains salicylic acid to treat existing breakouts and prevent new ones from forming."

"Charcoal on its own is a deep cleansing superstar, so Proactiv has created a dual-action brush that digs and pulls debris out of pores using innovative charcoal-infused bristles. It has two speeds and works on all types of skin, but it’s especially a must for acne-prone guys and those of us with oily skin."

"Proactiv has been around for so long that the brand has multi-generational users; parents not only pass it along to their adolescent children but continue to swear by the products themselves, too."

"Best Glycolic Acid Cleanser."

"It's my favorite cleanser in the world because it really worked for me to help get rid of adult acne" - on Proactiv+ Skin Smoothing Exfoliator."

"Best Overall: Proactiv Green Tea Moisturizer."

"Best Accutane Alternative Overall."

"As pioneers in the Accutane alternative OTC options, Proactiv now has tiers of treatments available for those needing respite from acne. We are big fans of ProactivMD, the latest collection from the brand, which features ingredients shown to target more severe acne."

"If your skin is acne-prone and oily, investing in a good exfoliator is invaluable. Dr. Henry likes to use this one a few times a week. It has benzoyl peroxide and glycolic acid to kill acne-causing bacteria, brighten, and unclog pores."

"Best Acne Treatment for Last Minute Fixes: Emergency Blemish Relief"

"Spot treatments deliver a powerful dose of active ingredients — typically salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide — to a pesky pimple," says New York City-based, board-certified dermatologist Dendy Engelman, MD, name-checking Proactiv's 5% benzoyl peroxide formula. This gel works fast by penetrating deep into your pores to clear them out and absorb excess oil — your breakouts won't even know what hit them."

"Best Chemical Sunscreen: Proactiv Clear Skin SPF30"

"It should surprise absolutely no one that Proactiv makes a great oil- and fragrance-free pick for acne-prone skin. "Most sunscreen irritates my angry, acne-prone skin," say our tester. "But not this one. The formula isn’t at all tacky and it doesn’t feel heavy or excessively dewy on my already oily skin. In fact, I think it actually helps cut down on the shine." It’s a chemical sunscreen, but we love that it’s clear and totally invisible on skin."
