    I was wondering if someone could post a step by step guide on how to apply procativ solution? Members who have been using it may post in their methods of application so that we may all come to know if we are missing out something.

    Well.. I've been advised by my doctor to start pro activ treatment and I was wondering if some members could post their experiences with the medication?

    I havent myself used this treatment, but ave seen a friend of mine use it regularly. I'll mention the steps here:

    1)Apply a little quantity of the Renewing cleanser on your face and gently massage for a few minutes. Wash off and pat dry your face. You can do this twice a day (morning and evening)

    2) Then apply the toner to your cleansed skin via a cotton ball and allow it to dry naturally. This may require waiting for around 5 mins.

    3) Once dried apply a very thin layer of the lotion on your face and let it dry naturally.


    One caution to mention here is that ALWAYS use a sunscreen while going in the sun if you have started this treatment.

    Hey Thanks Aly,

    Heidi I'd advise you to start this treatment. My sis also uses it and is quiet effective. Just becareful not to go out in the sun without a sunscreen as Aly said. I dont know if everyone suffer mild irritation, but my sis does. May its because she has a hyper sensitiv skin.

    Thanks a ton Aly,

    Is it compulsory to use it twice a day? or can I start with just once a day? Also regarding sunscreen, I have a very sensitive skin. Most of the sunscreens I buy make me feel itchy and red all over. Cn u name any one which is mild eough o that it doesnt hurt my skin?

    I guess reducing the dose to once a day will make the reatment less effective and slower. I am not sure though but you can consult your doctor.

    You are all welcome guys.

    @ Jen. Yes it is a part of the doage to use it twice a day. Using it once may not benefit you much or maybe not at all.
