Maybe the second step revitalizing toner is stinging your skin? Maybe another step of Proactiv causes a stinging sensation, or maybe all steps do.

If Proactiv stings during or after application, then you need to change the way that you use and apply the product.

By the way, be sure to check out my full Proactiv Review and complete Proactiv Questions and Answers Guide for way more information about this product.

Common Proactiv Mistakes

  1. Applying too much Proactiv.
  2. Applying Proactiv too often.
  3. Applying Proactiv too roughly.
  4. or for guys - Applying Proactiv right after shaving.

You may have also even found yourself so excited about using Proactiv, that overall, you forgot to read the instructions. That's 1 BIG OOPS! However, it's definitely good that you're beginning to do some research. :) It puts a smile on my face.

For those of you who follow my blog, I know I have said this many times, but if you want Proactiv to work with minimalized side effects, you must know

  1. how to use Proactiv correctly
  2. and the right times to apply it.

By following instructions and applying Proactiv correctly, you will be able to avoid the 'sting' feeling which Proactiv can sometimes bring to its users. You will also avoid many other common Proactiv Side Effects.

Final Note: Guys. Do NOT SHAVE before using Proactiv. If you do, you will pay the consequences when applying the second step aka revitalizing toner. Trust me. It will burn and sting like no other.

my cheeks have gotten very red and are burning after a week of using proactive. my sking is clearing up, but i was wondering if there was anything i could do about the redness and stinging?

The stinging will slowly go away as your skin clears up. The redness could be because you are using it too much or rubbing the skin to hard. Try to pat the towel and not rub it. Also DEFINATELY DONT SHAVE BEFORE USING PROACTIV!!! The Toner will sting and itch like hellll! TRUST ME, i know
