{NOW CLOSED} Back to School Giveaway: Get Clear Skin with $150 of Proactiv #wingiveaways

by

Doctor recommended, celebrity endorsed, Proactiv has to be a great product, right? My personal physician recommended Proactiv to me a few years ago when I was having a major problem with acne. I was very happy with the results.

I didn’t start having a problem with acne until I was out of high school, which I do consider a blessing. Having it as an adult is still difficult but at least I didn’t have endure the embarrassment that goes along with having it while in school. However, your child doesn’t have to suffer through that pain.

Be “proactive” and get Proactiv. Proactiv is a dermatologist developed, 3 step acne system that will help clear up existing acne and prevent future breakouts. It is so easy to incorporate into your daily routine as it requires less than five minutes each day. Even a busy teenager can fit 5 minutes into their schedule, right?

How Acne Happens

During your lifetime, your skin will shed dead cells and produce oil. This process can disrupted by your hormone balance, which is why many people experience acne during the teenage years, during or after pregnancy, or during another time of unbalanced hormones. The acne cycle begins with the excess oil and dead skin cells plug the pore of the hair follicle. This in turn plugs the pore, bacteria grows and multiples, and triggers inflammation and swelling AKA acne blemish.

How Proactiv Works

Proactiv works in three steps. You will have three products you use on a daily basis. You can not skip any of these steps as they are all important to break the cycle mentioned above.

Start with the Renewing Cleanser made with a unique micro-crystal benzoyl peroxide which will quickly penetrate pores and start killing acne-causing bacteria on contact. The exfoliating beads will gently remove dirt, excess oil, and dead skin cells to keep your pores from clogging.

Next up is the alcohol free toner, which will remove impurities and excess oil. You skin will feel refreshed and clean. Lastly, you will apply a extremely light medicated lotion, which will penetrate your pores. It is oil free and good for your entire face.

Proactiv also offers other products such Green Tea Moisturizer, Daily Protection Sunscreen, Oil Blotter Sheets (great to carry in a backpack for the middle of day at school!), Advanced Blemish Treatment, Clarifying Night Cream to name a few.

Better yet, you can feel comforted knowing that they back their product with the Proactiv Promise. If it fails to meet your expectation, simply return your product, even if empty, within 60 days for a full refund (less shipping & handling). You have nothing to lose by trying Proactiv!

You can get started with the 3 step system for just $19.95 when you buy online. Buy Proactiv through your Shop at Home Account to earn 40% cash back on your purchase (may be a limited time offer – so act now!). Gain the self confidence that comes from a clear face with this awesome deal today!

Comments

  13. My biggest challenge in getting and keeping clear skin is the oiliness of my skin, thanks for the chance!

  16. I’d love to help my teen daughter with her acne, we have tried other products but would love to try this for her

  22. My preteen daughter is starting to go through the changes and acne is starting to become very embarrassing for her. I feel so bad. Hopefully this will help her!

  29. Three teens, two with acne. I have acne too at 48 but not the drama of being a teen. lol

  30. My clear skin challenge sounds simple – address oily facial skin issues with an otherwise dry skin condition… please!

  39. I actually didn’t have break outs until I became an adult. I get them the worst on my chin!

  44. My clear-skin challenge is eczema (bleah!). I’ve got it, so I’m always searching for high-quality skincare products.

    Thanks for the wonderful giveaway!

  51. I would love this for my sister-in-law!! Mine isn’t too bad, but when i do get a breakout its a painful one!!

  55. I use an oil free cleanser and a mud mask and I still break out. I started taking some vitamin A so I am seeing if that will help.

  62. This would be great for my son. He has oily skin and even though he washes his face daily, he still has problems with acne. (Hope he doesn’t read this, he would be so embarrassed that I told everyone). ( ;

  67. It’s the wonderful time of year where it is so humid, you sweat instantly. That doesn’t make it easy to keep my face breakout free!

  90. I have a horrible problem with blackheads on my nose. Nothing has worked to get rid of them.

  94. my skin care challenge would be for my teen daughter to get on a steady skin routine to reduce blemishes

  97. I use Proactiv. As well as it works, the price isn’t real cheap. This would be a great package!

  99. My skin challenge? I’m in my mid-30s and my skin still acts like a teenager!!! Breakouts need to go away!

  112. I have blackheads on my nose and if I can just wave a wand and make them disappear I would! I can’t get rid of them.

  116. I’ve been struggling with adult acne for a couple of years now and I get so frustrated trying to find products that aren’t made for teenagers! I’d love to try ProActive!

  117. I have had problems with my skin since I became pregnant with quints in. They are almost 6 yrs old and I still have problems and some scarring.

  130. I never had to worry about breakouts until now. I think I’m getting adult acne..yuck!

  141. Mostly, time is the worst problem! With a toddler, it seems I never have much time for anything. :)

  147. I am also 30 and the breakouts do not stop. I would love to try this. suelee1998 @gmail.com

  164. I would love this for my son!! He’s already showing signs of my acne issues and he needs them.

  174. My teenagers have been begging me for this. They would be so excited if won this!

  176. I have seen the commercials for these products and would love to refresh my skin with them.

  181. My daughter has acne and has tried other products…this one sounds promising and would be excited to try it.

  197. thankfully my skin is pretty good – i help it along with monthly facials. but if i had to pick one issue it’s that my skin is very oily – it gets shiny really quickly!

  199. My skin challenge is acne that not even Accutane could cure. 13 years of dealing with it and still terrible :(

  218. I have 2 teenagers at home, girls, both have problems with acne. Would love to have this for them.

  219. I want Proactive. My skin is broken out, oily, and uneven. Nothing seems to work. Help.

  222. My issue is my combination skin that still gives me acne at age 30! I’ve tried so many types of cleanser and products, as well as dermatologist treatments and prescriptions. Some have helped, but none have totally wiped away the acne. I have used proactive, and that treatment plan does help reduce the severity of the acne considerably.

  224. I’m not the one with the challenge, it’s my two older boys who could really use this.

  229. I have had awful breakouts when I smoked, I quit 2 years ago and now I only break out under stress… I am a single mom of three children so … lol

  236. My main concern is oily parts around my nose area, but the main reason i want this is for my son he has acne and we haven’t found anything that works. i have heard great things about proactiv

  243. I would love to use this….i have had some trouble with acne and would love to have clear skin for the first day of school!

  246. My clear skin challenge is that at almost 36 years of age my skin is still as oily as when I was a teenager!

  250. I’ve struggled with blemishes for the last 10+ years… it’s not attractive on a 22 year old, even if my husband is understanding..

  272. My skin has just broke out this week, I’ve never been able to keep it under control unless I was pregnant.

  284. i had bad acne as a teenager and it was devastating. i had to take medicine to clear it up and now i would like to try proactive to help with the occasional breakout i get now

  285. My fourteen year old son needs some clear skin. It’s a challenge. ;)
    Thanks for the giveaway.

  297. maybe that’s what i need. I never had a problem til a few months ago, when i had my first child.

  311. My clear skin challenge is actually my daughter’s.. the one who would use this. She has blackheads which are so deep in her pores that she ends up getting acne from the dirt and then she scrapes her face trying to get them off. She’s used every type of cleanser, but nothing’s working..

  321. I always had a challenge as a teenager until I found out I was allergic to milk. That cleared up most of my problems.

  324. 40+ and I still get whiteheads, blackheads and pimples (and have sensitive skin).

  330. I really want to try this, and so does my future brother in law, who soon has yearbook senior pictures. For me, I have breakouts in the same spot over and over, and they never seem to disappear. His is the normal teen acne, but looks more extreme. His face is completely covered. Poor kid.
    Thanks for the chance.

  336. This would be for my son who is entering his teenage years and is begining to have some skin issues.

  345. I never got bad acne as a teen, but I always had at least a zit or two. I was sure it would stop by the time I hit 20, but at 26, I still get breakouts!

  354. I have 4 teenagers, and at least 2 of them could definitely use Proactive to clear up their acne.

  375. My skin is just tired looking; I would just like to settle in with a routine/product that gives me glowing skin.. ! Thanks!

  393. I have combination skin that also changes with the seasons. I would love something that can handle my skin through all of it’s challenges.

  402. I have always had pretty clear skin. But I would love to win this for my sister who has had several doctor’s prescriptions for acne!

  404. My son is 14 and starting high school next week. His face is so broken out, I would love to have this for him to boost his self-confidence.

  407. My combination skin is just so frustrating…I used Proactiv years ago when I was in college and it did a world of good for my skin. I’d love to give it a try now that my post-pregnancy horomones have destroyed my skin!

  410. my nephew is at that stage, and his skin is not agreeing with him, this would be a nice gift for back to school

  430. My daughter is the one that would love to get Proactiv. She is having problems now with breaking out even though she washes her face several times a day. Thanks for the giveaway.

  444. My clear skin challenge is finding something to help me control breakouts without drying out my face!

  447. The challenge for me would be roseacea…and acne to boot. The joys of being pregnant!

  454. I am blessed – other than a couple of wrinkles, I don’t have any skin issues. My sister, though, has suffered with acne and ultra-sensitive skin for years – I’d love to win this for her!

  457. My daighters has trouble with her skin getting to dry then oily when she tries to help the dryness

  458. I don’t know how it happened, but I do not have clear skin. I miss my clear pregnancy skin. So my challenge for myself is to find the perfect product that makes my skin beautiful again.

  462. I would love to win for my adopted daughter. She struggles with blemishes and told me yesterday after watching a commercial she needs pro-active!
    I subscribe via email and facebook already.

  464. My face breaks out something Awful. You would think I was a teenager! I thought when I became an adult those days was over but its worse now !

  465. I have struggled with problem skin my whole life and I am 31 now! My son going into 6th grade is showing some of the same signs and I’d love to give us both a chance to try this together!

  471. Eating a balance diet, plenty of water along with exercise helps with acne and is my clear skin challenge…but it’s so hard…especially the chocolate part…hmm.

  476. I would love this for my athletic tween daughter who is beginning to have some breakouts.

  478. I really wanna try this! My skin chalenge is that even if I just get a tiny bit stressed, I break out and it gets worse accordingly. I’m 25 and for some odd reason I NEVER had an issue with break-outs as a teen… Well, except once I got a huge red one on the tip of my nose! Ack.

  479. I have oily skin in the summer and dry skin patches in the winter. When I do get blemishes they are quite painful.

    • Your article is truly useful. In addition to that, it really is interesting, convincing and well-written.
      I would want to see even more of these types of wonderful writing.

  494. I’ve always wanted to try this, even though I’m a twentysomething now :). One of my big challenges is breaking out around certain times of the month (and since the majority of couponers/bargain hunters are women I think you all know what I mean).

  507. My daughter would like to try this product and it is not in the budget right now. Would love to win this product.

  510. My challenge is humid days. Even at 43 years old the humidity makes my skin breakout like crazy.

  514. I get one yucky pimple in the same place once a month. Guess what it’s telling is on its way?

  529. I have an issue with oily skin but I’d love to win this for my sister who has a lot more issues than I do..hehe Don’t tell her I said that!!!! lol
