Pros:Cleanser is nice.
Cons:The acne treatmet bottle is what did it for me!
Bottom Line:I like the cleanser. It started to leave my face dry, but I have another oinment that's helping alot. However the second step treat/repair I would not recommend. IT MADE IT WORST! I've only been seening slight improvements using just the cleanser and the lotion. I have remaining dark spots on my face :/ It's just not worth it to me.

Pros:Makes your complexion and skin smoother and better looking, and helps to get rid of the brown spots left over from previous pimples.
Cons:I don't like how the purging process works. I know that it's necessary, but still. And I gotta go school with it too
Bottom Line:I have been using it for like a week and it has definitely made my skin look a lot healthier and got rid of many of my brown spots left from pimples. In my opinion, Proactive gets rid of pimples better, buy Murad is way better for your skin.
I'm hoping my acne will start to clear up within the reccomended 4 weeks.

Pros:Tingling feeling, Refreshing. Cleared skin quickly
Cons:Price... Would be better if it was more affordable
Bottom Line:I've tried many products including Proactiv and Acutane. I know a lot of people are going around saying not to try Murad cause it irritated their skin or whatever reason but I have to say I had the same experience with other products. The bottom line is you never know what will work for you until you try it. Unfortunately that means trying a lot of different products out there. Luckily Murad helped me out, it cleared my skin and really reduced my redness and has overall improved the feel of my skin. It would be great if the price was a bit more affordable but I guess we can't have everything.

Pros:It cleansed my face really well, and it got rid of the bad acne on my face which i've tried to clear for 3 years after 5 rounds of antibiotics and 3 creams.

The creams spread well also.
Cons:The kit can be quite expensive up to £30 and it made my face really really REALLY dry, especially around my mouth when i first started to use the kit.

Now after 3 weeks my skin isnt dry.
Bottom Line:the kit is very good, it was my last hope and i will continue to use it.
