Curology has changed my life! I love it! I used Proactive for years and still got the hormonal acne around my jaw. I changed my diet by cutting out dairy, I started birth control to help minimize the hormones, I still got the acne, although reduced a little. I switch to Curology after reading online reviews. It took about a month for my face get clear. A month after that I no longer had to take birth control to help with the breakouts. I've been a user for almost a year now and while I still have almost entirely cut out diary, Curology has changed the way my face responds to monthly hormone fluctuations. Instead of getting 3-4 painful hormonal cystic zits, I might get one teeny tiny one. My face has better illumination and the process is sooo easy. I LOVE Curology!
