Sick of acne and breakouts spoiling your day? You’re not alone: over half of British people (54%) feel insecure about their skin, which is why we’re so psyched that this American skincare brand is back in the UK.
Proactiv, America’s number one Clear Skin Routine, is officially back in the UK, and our acne-prone skin is jumping for joy.
Known for their super easy, three-step skincare routines that work to make blemishes, imperfections and other common skincare concerns a thing of the past, Proactiv has been changing the game when it comes to clear skin – and now we can officially shop them again the UK.
The brand has brought two utterly affordable routines to the UK – Proactiv Gentle and Proactiv Solution – both formulated with clinically proven ingredients such as Salicylic Acid, Sulfur, Glycolic Acid, and Azelaic Acid to help treat your skin woes.
But we’ve got our eye on the Proactiv Solution 30 Day Kit – a three-step routine designed to cleanse away and remove blemish causing impurities to help smooth and balance skin.
Proactiv Solution 30 Day Kit
This 30-day kit features a Refreshing Cleanser, Clarifying Toner and Anti-Imperfection Hydrator, each developed with salicylic acid and glycolic acid for your best skin yet.

But what’s so great about these ingredients?
While salicylic acid works to slough away dead skin cells, reduce the appearance of blemishes and help to prevent future blemishes from occurring, exfoliating glycolic acid helps remove traces of dirt, sweat and oil, for skin that feels soft, clean and refreshed.
The 3-step routine has been designed to literally be as easy as 1, 2, 3: Cleanse, tone and moisturise.
Every morning and evening, the brand recommends starting with the Refreshing Cleanser and applying a small amount to damp skin, gently massaging into the skin to cleanse away any impurities and kill any acne-causing bacteria.
After this, the brand recommends applying the Clarifying Toner with a cotton pad to help exfoliate the skin, leaving to dry then following up with the Anti-Imperfection Hydrator.
This repairing moisturiser works to treat active breakouts and help prevent new acne from forming while deeply hydrating the skin.
The result? Clearer skin with fewer breakouts in as little as 30 days. Sounds like a dream to us.
And while Proactiv’s launch into the UK is still fairly recent, users are already loving the kit, rating it full five-stars and raving of how it left them with ‘hardly any breakouts’.
‘I thought I’d give this a go as remember seeing it years ago in US and I’ve had problem skin for a while – so been wearing more make up to cover, which was obviously making it worse!’ Wrote one five-star reviewer.
‘This has really helped with imperfections and blemishes – week by week my skin is improving. Going on holiday this week and for once not dreading having to go make up free! ‘
‘Love it!’ Raved another. ‘Super kit. Kept my skin under control. Had hardly any breakouts.’
This affordable solution has us hooked…
