Please help- new Proactiv user

{#emotions_dlg.crying}A week ago I started using Proactiv. I've tried so many other products.....so so many. (Mostly salicylic and glycolic acids, but other stuff to.)

I fianally broke down and ordered some, as I'm desperate to clear up my skin. I'm no teenager, in my early 30's. It's been so bad past two months I've almost been a recluse in my house with kids. BTW, can't afford to see derm.

I thought their new line was supposed to be more gentle. Uh, I'm not sure. Maybe you just need the skin of a teenager.

My skin is sooo dry, and peelilng slightly. I used the green tea moisturizer- but to no avail.

I couldn't even wear makeup at Christmas - no cream, liquid, or BE would sit on my dry skin.

Please tell me , ANY advice, does it get better as my skin gets use to the medicine? I don't want to give up on it, cause it might work....but unsure what to do.

Please ladies help me out !

Thank you, G
