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.

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.
Recommended:Yes

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.

Pros:it made most of the acne that i had go away, and it did make my pores smaller and my face was less oily....
Cons:i would not recomend any one to use this product if you have any allergies to oranges or citrus fruit....
Bottom Line:i didn't realize that the ingredients were almost all orange oil, lemon oil, tangerine oil, and alot of other things ...basically it caused my face and eyes to swell up after two days of use and am not very happy about that...i am very unhappy with the after effects
Recommended:No

Pros:Worked for about a week.
Cons:Made my skin worse than before and very expensive.
Bottom Line:When I first used this product, it made me skin slightly clearer in about the first week. After this, my skin went really bad, it said on the instructions that your skin would purge for about one to two weeks, mine skin went really bad and did not change. After two months I gave up on this product. It is a waste of money, and does not do what it says it does. Seriously don't buy it!!!
