1. Are the Systems available in larger sizes? 1 found this answer useful
The Renewing Cleanser, Revitalising Toner and Repairing Lotion were created to last about 60 days with average use, twice a day. At the present time we do not have plans to create larger sizes.
2. Why does Proactiv Solution use Benzoyl Peroxide instead of Salicylic Acid in the Renewing Cleanser and Reparing Lotion? What is the difference between the two? 0 found this answer useful
We believe that Benzoyl Peroxide is the best over-the-counter anti-bacterial agent for acne and is more effective in treating and preventing acne. Salicylic Acid is milder and works by exfoliating dead skin cells.
3. Is Proactiv Solution non-comedogenic? 0 found this answer useful

Yes

5. Does heat destroy the effects of Benzoyl Peroxide? 0 found this answer useful

Yes, storage at room temperature is best.

6. Will refrigeration increase product longevity? 0 found this answer useful

It is very unlikely that refrigeration will increase longevity. As a general rule, Proactiv Solution products should not be exposed to extreme heat or cold temperatures, to preserve efficacy.
