Sensitive skin type, but I never really had acne, just black heads. Never pimples. Currently I'm having unbalanced hormones because of taking emergency contraceptive, so I broke out with two huge, deep painful blemishes, so I immediately got proactiv and now my face is burning in pain beyond the norm and is bright red and getting swollen. I think I'm having an allergic reaction.... |
i had an allergic reaction to the moisturiser in the proactive!!! my skin was swelled and sore and all red too!!i had to leave makeup off for a few days and wear aloe cream on it! luckily my job at the time was in a back room not around alot of people but i looked scary! hope it clears up soon!
