Pros:It's amazing! I would recommend this product to anyone and everyone. I have used several products before nothing seemed to work as well as Murad. I love it, and have been using this product for 2 years now!
Cons:The acne gel stings a little bit, but that's how you know it's really working! I use it once, at night.
Bottom Line:Just try it.
Recommended:Yes
Acne severity:moderately severe

Pros:works well, lots of product. feels great on skin and greatly improves the non-acne sections.
Cons:not 100%; combine with moisturizer that has more sal acid than murad moisturizer for better clearing
Bottom Line:Was on combo minocycline twice daily, birth control, differin with mild cleanser. Went off all prescription drugs because cost and stomach probs from antibiotics.
Murad cleanser and toner plus hope in a bottle by philosophy as moisturizer (extra sal. acid) works as well as all the drugs did.
Have had cysts for 12 yrs and mostly clear now. Still breaking out monthly and if wear makeup, but Murad is the best I've found.
The cleanser is great and works better if left on for a minute or so.
The spot treatment with low sulfur is terrific if I feel a pimple coming on. It cools the spot so it's less painful and keeps it from being as bad. Also, the spot treatment is greeny-clear in color and serves as a concealer. If I remember to use it my skin is much better. Previously used dry-lo high concentration sulfur treatment; this works as well without obvious dots on my face.
Usage:Meg has used this item for about a year.
Price Paid:60.00

Pros:Their commercials really suck you into believing that their product will work. I was able to get my money back because I bought from their website.
Cons:It made my mild acne horrible. I now have inflamed acne that has not improved yet. With consistent use for the promised four week improvement my skin was much worse than before using Murad.
Bottom Line:It's not worth the money. I'd rather have the mild acne than what is happening to my skin now. Even with the use of true natural products and very clean eating, my skin is still damaged. The only thing that has changed in my routine is the Murad. Read The Green Beauty Guide.

Pros:It cleared up my face so very quick, and i love that it is so easy to use and the three stepe tystem works so well.
Cons:none, most other threatment make my skin break out the first week or so but this did not.
Bottom Line:The bottom line is that I've had acne for a while now, never bad but allways had some on my face and it bothered me for so long,so i thried several threatments and this one works so well, and you should try it, you only have one face take care of it, and if this doesnt work as well as you would like after about a month i would try dermaware it also works great.

Pros:It cleared up my acne temporarily..
Cons:Never fully cleared up my acne, I would always have atleast like 4 pimples and like 1 cyst using this.
Bottom Line:It is waste of money. It didnt really make my skin better, maybe a little bit worse after 4 months of usage.

Pros:It did clear up my majority of my skin.
Cons:I still had pimple break outs every n then. And it is expensive, I bought the individual face wash and spot treatment in Sephora store. But then bought the set online because that was a better deal.
Bottom Line:I stopped using birth control and thats when my face starting breaking out. I used the regular face washes from the store and didn't really do anything. Then tried proactive and saw no improvement. Then tried murad and it seems to work better. But it's only been a month so I'm hoping it'll be better next month.
