3. How does Daily Oil Control work?

Daily Oil Control uses our unique "microsponge" technology - a combination of several ingredients, including finely milled silica powder - to absorb facial oils. Excess oil is collected by the "microsponge" system and is washed away when you wash your face.

No. Our products do not contain steroids.

5. What are the grains in the Renewing Cleanser made of?

The granules found in the Renewing Cleanser are made from polyethylene. They are not harsh, abrasive plant-based grains or ground apricot seeds. These smooth, tiny grains unclog pores and gently buff away oil, dirt and dead skin cells.

6. What is Magnesium Aluminum Silicate, and why is it used in the Refining Mask?

Magnesium Aluminum Silicate is known as a "suspending agent", which is important for the overall stability of the Proactiv® Solution Refining Mask. It also has the ability to act as an oil absorber. It has been used extensively in liquid makeup for well over 50 years.
