| Pros | Hydrates my skin and clears the acne with regular use. |
|---|---|
| Cons | Expensive, sometimes made my skin too dry but you have to know how to control the doses of Sulfur which is present in the SPOT TREATMENT & MUSK. |
| Bottom line | The treating gel has bit tingling sensation but I guess its because it battling so many bacteria’s at the same time. The Moisturizer is the best... I usually use the full recommended dose at night as it is a bit oily and only half the recommended dose during the day time. The acne spot treatment is a life saver... I use it regularly at night and it also helps to fade away previous acne mark. I hate those ugly black spots... Overall it has been a dramatic experience because on the mark of 2-3 weeks my skin broke out like crazy but soon I got to see result... The trick is to be patient and sticking with it... I hope my remaining acne clears out... still working on the damn black spots... |

| Pros | None |
|---|---|
| Cons | Eveythinggg! especially the price! |
| Bottom line | I was really hopeful to use this product. I've tried so many different products; nutrogena, acnefree, clean &clear, olay, st.Ives, ect. I've been using murad for about 3 months now, and my skin is literally so much WORSE! I'm getting acne everywhere on my face now, even where I didn't have acne before! I hate it! I'm going to send it back & get my money back!! |

| Pros | clears acne |
|---|---|
| Cons | skins gonna purge out the ass |
| Bottom line | It works, it just takes awhile. My skin started getting pretty bad as i kept using it from the purging. It was the worst the second week, then I started to notice areas of the skin clear up. Basically ur lifes gonna suck ass for awhile, which kinda sucks since im 16 and in high school. O and dont go to a dermotologist cause they f**kn suck. Every time i went there, they prescribed something different, and each time i used the prescriptions i got acne in places i have never gotten them like my chin, cheeks, and forehead. Before i went to a dermi my skin had like 5 zits. They ruin u. Murad saves u. |

| Pros | The cleanser felt cool and fresh to the skin. This package cleared my skin. |
|---|---|
| Cons | The toner stung a lot. I can only imagine the active ingredient cleaning out the inner walls of my every pore. It also had a strong smell that needs a bit of getting used to. My theory on this is that no fragrance-inducing ingredients were used on the formulation. NOTE: Most fragrances can cause irritation, which results to acne, to sensitive skin. The lotion did not deliver the promise of "no added shine". It still added a lot of shine. NOTE: My environment's humidity might've influe |
| Bottom line | The Murad Acne Complex cleared my skin. I had been on Roaccutane therapy. After the second therapy, acne and excess oil returned to my face. Worse, it was even more severe than before I had undergone the Roaccutane therapy. My skin is clear of acne now. Sometimes, one or two pimples still pop out, but with continued maintenance, the problem is controlled and the skin maintained. My skin also felt somewhat firmer after a month of using Murad. *From all the acne stories I've heard and from my own experience, treating acne involves compatibility with the active ingredient. The active ingredient of Murad is salicylic acid. I have a friend who told me that Salicylic acid was not compatible with his skin, and it could not control his acne, so... Results may still vary. |

| Pros | *- Cleans pores *- Leaves skin softer *- Doesn't have a horrible odor. Manyyyy more for me. |
|---|---|
| Cons | a little expensive but worth it. |
| Bottom line | I started getting acne when I was around 11, I'll be 16 in about a month. I've tried countless products, I really have. Most cleared my skin a little for like 2 weeks, then made it worse. Clean & Clear, Neutrogena, Acne Free, and so on. This coming Wednesday will be my 4th week on Acne Complex and I'm really happy with my so far results. Instead of waking up and praying I didn't get a new zit over night, I wake up to find my face glowing. I had moderately severe acne when I got the product. Now it's light, but as I stated, my four weeks aren't even up yet. I have a lot of faith in Murad, I really do. A few weeks before I ordered, I swear I went through every bad review on this webpage. The ones who said everyone's skin is different, that you SHOULD TRY IT, JUST TO SEE IF IT WORKS FOR YOU, pushed me. It also helped to read the details of what their acne looked like. So here's my details I started wearing makeup at 11, that's what I believe triggered it. I can't exactly remember when I got the "brail" bumps, but I've never used anything that made them go away before Murad. My acne looked like a mixture of Sammi's and Deedra's. Very occasionally I'd get the huge painful bumps like Brian. Right before I started using Murad I broke out around my jawline, like Sammi's. The "Brail" bumps were all over my face, at least a couple hundred of them. The acne on my jawline itched. Usually I popped my pimples then stopped for a while and noticed it got better on its own. I have sensitive skin, most people with acne, especially bad acne do. If you do then I suggest you use it only ONCE a day. I know what my skin's limits are. I used the exfoliating acne gel every other day. After two weeks I started using it every day and my skin's fine since it's used to the products. My favorite products of the 5 are the cleanser and clarifying mask. I leave the mask on for more than 10 minutes though. The lotions a nice finishing touch, I just layer it on my |

| Pros | Cleared my skin. That is all I wanted and it worked for me. |
|---|---|
| Cons | none |
| Bottom line | At first I didnt want to try it because of all the bad reviews, so I tried EVERYTHING from store brand to expensive brand at the mall and most of the products at Sephora that I can afford. I even went to the dermo and that didnt work. I was browsing through Sehpora and one of the workers told me to try the $10 trial, and I was thinking, I had nothing to lose but $10 and even so, if I didnt like it I can return it. Boy was I glad I tried it. My face almost cleared up completely and i just went back to buy the 33 kit. Dont think I need everything in the kit, but I will try it..and may just use only the face wash, lotion and treatment. Sorry, this is pretty long, but I am soo happy, I finally have clear skin. I was sooo depressed before, now I dont have to hide my face and I smile alot more without my face being hurt from those crazy zits. Good Luck to all of you, I know not everyone skin is the same. Just because it worked for me doesnt mean it will work for you. But its worth the $10 try.... |

| Pros | I liked the moisturizer. |
|---|---|
| Cons | It doesn't work. Period. It may somewhat help acne from getting totally out of control, but it will not clear existing breakouts or stop new ones from happening. Plus, its super expensive and I didn't like how the product felt on my face. P.S. The "spot treatment" might as well have been water. Seriously. |
| Bottom line | Please don't waste any more of your time or money and just try Dan's regimen. |

| Pros | -NONE |
|---|---|
| Cons | -used for couple months made my face worse than ever before. it made it the worst. literally |
| Bottom line | I'm telling you right now, this thing has made my skin worse than ever before. I'm a real person it seems like people who are posting good reviews about this regimen are fake or just murad workers. I feel like such a victim bc it's literally killed my social life and now I have no confidence and am not outgoing. I have half a mind to file a lawsuit against this company bc their products are pure bs. Virginia Tech lost to Boise St. couple days ago. |

| Pros | Cleanser cleans without drying smells great leaves face feeling clean, not oily |
|---|---|
| Cons | allergic to all other products in the line |
| Bottom line | I've been an acne sufferer for over 20 years now. Murad was the first product that actually worked for me when used in combinations of other product lines. The key to fighting acne is finding what works in COMBINATION with your skin. I love the Murad cleanser...but can't use any of the product because it causes me to breakout. I use just good old Clearasil ULTRA for spot treatment and the Arbonne's thermal facial scrub once a week. This combination is what works for me to keep my skin glowing and clear. There is no such product that will leave you acne free. it's in the genes. But, finding a good product like Murad's cleanser used with other products is what keeps my flares down to a zit or two a month. For me, that's winning the battle. |
