So every time i use proactiv skin gets red and stings. should i return it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Proactiv: If you have an allergy to benzoyl peroxide, you may experience itching and develop a rash or irritation when using proactiv. You should stop using the product altogether if this kind of reaction occurs. If the rash does not go away after you have discontinued using the product, you should consult your doctor.
