Murad definitely didn't work for me. It acutally made my acne worse. What a waste of money. The only props I can give to Murad is how pretty the packaging is and how it manages to sell at such high prices. The pomegranate moisturizer was decent, at least it smelled good.

Man this murad crap sucks. I think salicylic acid sucks for certain users and benzoyl peroxide works better for others. I used murad for about 2 months and it did nothing for me but made me break out. Then i started using proactive for about 5 days now. WOW what a difference. No more whiteheads and my face is starting to become smooth and clearing up. For all you salicylic users that dont see an improvement on ur skin then you should try benzoyle peroxide like proactiv. GImme a Month. Im so glad im pimple free!!!

This product did nothing for me. It is like using water. I then tried Proactiv - that one really worked.

bad stuff...i've been using it for four weeks now and my skin looks worse than it ever has. at first i thought it was a good sign that i was breaking out more. it meant that i was experiencing the "purging" stage and that murad was working its magic, gradually clearing my skin up. however, after four weeks, i think i should be seeing improvement, not regression. i want a product that will get rid of my pimples, not give me more in order to clear my skin up. it makes no sense...total bs. didn't work for my friend either, so i don't know why i even decided to try it.

The Murad Complex had no effect on the condition of my acne. Used it for well over a month too. Unfortunately due to this, I was too skeptical to try Proactiv for a few years. I am currently using Proactiv. It works much better than any other topical treatments I've tried--except for erythromycin. Unfortunately with Erythromycin, the bacteria developed a resistance to the treatment. I switched up my Proactiv cleanser for something that feels much better on my skin. (Proactiv cleanser feels like you're rubbing course sand into your face.) As a cleanser I'm currently using Shiseido Pureness Deep Cleansing Foam. Expensive as hell but leaves my skin feeling great :D
