| Pros: | At first it really started to clear up my skin and looked great |
| Cons: | after the second week, I started breaking out extremely bad, all over my chin, cheeks and extremely bad on my neck and neck line.. Worse than I have ever had before. |
| Bottom Line: | after reading reviews, I am not sure if I should give it another week or so, or return the product since Sephora backs it up supposedly. I am 29, and should not be breaking out, it is to the point where I am embarrassed to leave my house! I had mild acne before, not too bad, an used to have incredible skin, and now it is very red and irritated and very painful. I am not sure if I recommend this product. My skin is very sensitive, but it seems like a lot of other people are having the same problems I am having. I know your skin gets worse before it gets better, but this is ridiculous. |

| Pros: | The smell is god! |
| Cons: | It dried my skin a lot, specially the area below my eyes. I am dissapointed! |
| Bottom Line: | It doesn't work. I tried proactiv first and then I decided to give Murad a chance. I am going back to proactiv, the renewing cleanser is the best! |

| Pros: | After using Proactiv for more than 8 years I just always thought my skin would be dry in certain areas. After just using it for one week I have noticed a difference in my skin's texture. |
| Cons: | none! |
| Bottom Line: | If you are wondering if you should try this product, I would say why not?? I was suffering from frequent breakouts while using Proactiv, but was afraid it would get worse if I switched. However, after switching I am sooo happy that I took the chance. Being in my 30's and a mother of two I hated the fact that my acne would not clear up!! This stuff works great! Nobody' s self confidence should suffer becasue of their skin - take a chance! |

| Pros: | cleared up my skin quickly without drying it out |
| Cons: | a little bit expensive |
| Bottom Line: | I actually really love this product. After trying to use Proactiv for months, and watching my face get worse, I got up the nerve to quit and switch to Murad. My skin cleared up almost immediately and is super hydrated. I am so relieved to find a product that actually works and makes my skin feel great. No more piles of foundation =) |

| Pros: | its a great daily facial wash ..thats it,, not for acne
it never dried my skin or makde it oily |
| Cons: | its costs alot and if you dont cancel your memberhsip they will keep sending you the whole kit every month! |
| Bottom Line: | MURAD made me break out more, i know how everyone says you break out when you first start using a product, its part of the healing process, but i have been using it religiously for 3 months and my face actually got worse. If you dont have acne, then i recommend it for a gently daily use facial wash. It smells great. |

| Pros: | Cleared me up at first, then I dont know what happened. |
| Cons: | Horrible constant brakouts, dry flaky patches of skin, makes skin an oil slick after 3-4hrs of putting onto already oily prone skin. |
| Bottom Line: | Tried once after Proactiv faliled me years ago, so after like 5 years I came back around to it, yeah, still look bad, all kinds of acne now, in plaaces it never was before. I have horrible acne scarring now. Just mad, think ima try a combo treatment with the ben. perioxide that proactiv has with sal. acid murad has. maybe that will work |

| Pros: | The smell is nice and ever since the first use my face felt extremely hydrated and soft. |
| Cons: | Nothing really... I havent experienced anything bad with it. |
| Bottom Line: | Acne needs time and patience. Some people may say that they get a massive increase of acne.. but thats just the purging process. You have to stick out with it until that process is over.. than you will see beautiful results. I have severe acne.. and have had it since i was 14. I've used, proactive, skinID, neutrogena, biore, clinique and every other possible acne treatment... and this, so far, has worked the best for me. |
| Recommended: | Yes |
