I dont understand the bad reviews on this because its probably my favourite of the 3 steps!
It contains glycolic acid, a small amount but some is better than none and it is probably more beneficial for your skin in the long run then Benzoyl Peroxide. I wish it was cheaper to purchase as a single product because I definitely would!

I don't like this toner. Good old Witch Hazel from the supermarket is fantastic and only costs about $7. I don't find this toner does much at all. But love the cleaser, the repair cream and blemish control

i dont like this. i always skip it cause it tends to cause edge of my nose red. i tried to stop it for fews days and the redness is gone. used it again and redness re-appeared. so i never used it again.

I'm surprised that this says Alcohol free when I saw on the ingredients list that there is 5 alcohols. I found that 2 were naturally occurring alcohols: Panthenol, Propylene Glycol (double alcohol), Phenoxyethanol, Linalool and Geraniol.
GUTHY-RENKER RESPONSE: Hi Vanessa, thanks for your comments. Many personal care products are marketed using the claim “alcohol-free”. This can be an important claim for people who wish to avoid the drying effects alcohol has on the skin. Many alcohol-free skincare products ingredient listings may appear to the consumer to actually contain alcohols, such as Phenoxyethanol, Cetyl Alcohol, Linalool (linalyl alcohol), Geraniol, Propylene Glycol (1,2-propanediol). Phenoxyethanol is actually a glycol ether, and has different properties to alcohols. Cetyl Alcohol is a hard wax like substance obtained from Palm Oil. Linalool & Geraniol are naturally occuring terpene alcohols that are present in many flowers and spices. Propylene Glycol is a thick liquid that is used for its moisturising properties in some cosmetics. All these ingredients are actually “ethanol-free”. The reason for the confusion is the difference between the scientific terms (ethanol) and those used by consumers ( alcohol). Ethanol is ethyl alcohol – hence the use of the word “alcohol”. Scientifically ‘Alcohol’ describes a whole group of substances with differing properties. Phenoxyethanol, Cetyl Alcohol, Linalool, Geraniol, Propylene Glycol are “alcohol-free”.

I love most of Proactiv's products, except the toner. It leaves my skin oily with a disgusting shine. I always skip this step.
