General Information This Proactiv 3-Step System revolutionized the treatment of acne. Each step builds on the step before, attacking the acne cycle to clear current blemishes and help prevent new ones from forming. The Proactiv 3-Step System features advanced benzoyl peroxide—designed to work faster and gentler than ever before. These three steps are specially formulated to work together to treat and prevent breakouts for oily or combination skin. Benzoyl peroxide kills acne-causing bacteria and works hard alongside glycolic acid, an exfoliating alpha hydroxy acid, to keep pores clear and skin breakout free.
Warnings When using this product skin irritation and dryness is more likely to occur if you use another topical acne medication at the same time. If irritation occurs, only use one topical acne medication at a time. Avoid unnecessary sun exposure and use a sunscreen. Avoid contact with the eyes, lips, and mouth. Avoid contact with hair and dyed fabrics, which may be bleached by this product. Skin irritation may occur, characterized by redness, burning, itching, peeling, or possibly swelling. Irritation may be reduced by using the product less frequently or in a lower concentration. Do not use if you have very sensitive skin or are sensitive to benzoyl peroxide. Stop use and ask a doctor if irritation becomes severe. Keep out of reach of children. If swallowed, get medical help or contact a Poison Control Center right away.
