| Pros: | I bought MURAD from Sephora on July 27, 2009. I've had it for less than 3 weeks and I don't even wear makeup anymore! I had used Proactiv for about 3 years, and wouldn't go back to it if you paid me (and I used to love it!) I love Murad! |
| Cons: | Nothing. Sure it's $45.00 but you barely use any. Proactiv (and most other acne facewashes) are comparable in price, and don't last as long. |
| Bottom Line: | I am a huge lover of makeup. I am very girly and love having fun with it, but I have struggled with mild acne (a few blemishes here and there) for about 10 years, I'm 23 years old and often times even non-comedogenic makeup made me break out. Since using Murad I now only wear MAC Powder (more to mask a few freckles on my nose :)) and some blush. I am thrilled with the product in every way. Thank you Sephora, you're amazing for showing me this product! I am the happiest with my skin, I've ever been! |

| Pros: | its cheaper as it comes in a kit. |
| Cons: | purging...my skin started purging really bad from the 2nd day . i waited 28 days because they say that it makes the skin worse before getting better. i waited 6 weeks and my skin just got worser than ever. |
| Bottom Line: | this product does not work at all. just make skin worser and full of acne and new scars. its was a waste of time and money for me. but if u believe it works, u can try out. didnt work for me. so i wouldnt recommend to anyone. |

| Pros: | The first few times you use it your skin feels very soft. Mask is EH. |
| Cons: | A Horrible feeling comes from using it after 2 or 3 days. A HORRIBLE uncomfortable pinching and stinging feeling comes from the cleanser and spot treatment. |
| Bottom Line: | Not a good experience. Hurt horrible and made me have the bad acne I have today. I broke out after four days but thought it was just bringing up stuff from my pores but realized it made me breakout at least 10 times worse than before. |
| Recommended: | No |

| Pros: | It cleared up my skin and made it really soft. Now I only have 1 or 2 zits. |
| Cons: | Made my skin kind of dry because I didn't use the moisturizing lotion. It is also very expensive. |
| Bottom Line: | I love Murad and will continue using it. |

| Pros: | This product did clear the acne that I had initially on my face. I have been using it for 2 weeks and I haven't had any new breakouts. It made my pores a lot smaller, and my face doesn't look so red. |
| Cons: | I think its all the citrus extracts, but this product will dry out your skin if you do not moisturize. I did get a slight unnoticeable rash, but I stuck it out and it went away. I'll deal with a little irritation if it clears my face! |
| Bottom Line: | ** BTW i did NOT use the Acne Complex Package after hearing the horrible reviews. I went to a local beauty supply and purchased the Clarifying Cleanser and the toner separately. I use a tiny hint of moisturizer morning and night, just a HINT, because this product does dry out your skin and it can be uncomfortable. |

| Pros: | Liked the moisturizing lotion. |
| Cons: | Irritated my skin, made it very dry and itchy. When I would apply the on spot acne treatment or the post acne lightener gel it STUNG soo bad. Sometimes when I would apply my make up it would burn really bad. I have been using since Jan. SUCKS. |
| Bottom Line: | Basically dont buy it. I still have acne, hasn't improved anything for me. Save your money. Due Accutane thats worth all the $$. Nuetrogena works better. |
| Recommended: | No |
