Acne is a word used to describe plugged pimples, blackheads or whiteheads that occur on your face, neck, arms, chest and back. This skin condition affects millions of people worldwide, especially adolescents. There are innumerable over-the-counter treatments for acne, including the Proactive line of products. The Proactive Refining Mask is a free bonus item that ships with the Proactive 3 Step System. Manufacturers claim that this mask can help eliminate blemishes while cleaning your skin pores. Using this mask with the Proactive 3 Step System properly can help treat your acne problems.
Step 1
Wash your face with warm water and the Proactive Renewing cleanser before applying the Proactiv Refining Mask. Gently massage the cleanser into you face using a circular motion for five minutes. Avoid using a loofah sponge or similar scrub to prevent skin irritation and reddening. Use a clean dry towel to pat your face dry afterward.
Step 2
Apply a quarter-size amount of the Proactive Refining Mask to your face and gently massage into your skin for five minutes. Use both your hands to gently massage your forehead and work your way around the sides of your nose and down your chin and neck.
Step 3
Leave the mask on your skin for 15 minutes or as directed. Wash your face with warm water and gently rub off the mask and pat dry with towel or clean tissue.
Step 4
Soak a cotton ball with the Proactiv Revitalizing Toner and massage it all over your face and neck. After it dries, apply a quarter-size amount of Proactive Repairing Lotion generously to your face and neck to help keep your skin soft.
