Pros:

None

Cons:

Everything

I have always had perfect skin up until 3months ago when i had a terrible break out on my forehead.. a friend recommended Dr Murad and so i went ahead and ordered 2months worth of treatment. And omg, my skin has never been so terrible, the first 3 weeks i didnt break out, but after that i've had acne like you wouldn't beleive and it has left marks all over my face... im so sad..now im using clinique acne complex..lets see how that goes.. i only read the good stuff about murad, i guess i didnt do my hmwrk by reading this site... but the person who told me about dr murad, her skin used to be terrible and this has really helped her, she has flawless skin..she has been using it for a few years now...good luck!

Pros:

I like the way the product LOOKS. And I only liked the moisturiser.

Cons:

Not worth the price, very irritating, and not a pretty scent.

i was desperate to start using a new medication that will hopefully work for me. the very first time I use it, the damn exfoliating gel burned my face! at first i thought its was normal and kept using it. At the second day every time i put gel it not only burned, but it itched so bad i couldn't help but scrath my face full of blemishes which made it more painful. No way im using it again. I almost cried, my hopes were lost for this product. Bye bye Murad. (I was hoping to say instead "bye bye acne")

Pros:

The packaging is attractive

Cons:

Costly and it made my skin very dry and flaky, it seems to be making my acne worse than before. Has a bad smell.

I used this horrible acne complex product from Murad for almost a month, but it did nothing and they kept charging my credit card, you could just imagine what a nightmare I could have been having paying for something which doesn't work at all! I was using Clear Pores before and it did a great job I should never have changed.

Pros:

did clear up some acne

Cons:

expensive, drying, harsh, stinky. overall, I did not like this system. it worked for a while, but it was just KILLING my skin. My skin always burned or felt tight and it was never ever clear.

not worth it!
October 5, 2007

Pros:

...? it was easy to use i suppose...they gave me a refund, and that was nice.

Cons:

Well, first of all one of the bottles was leaking when i first opened the package. After using it for 3 weeks, my face was covered in painful, red, irritated cystic acne. I'd say my face got 50% worse after using this system.

This product claims to work wonders, but it doesn't.
January 2, 2007

Pros:

Face wash was ok. Soapy but leaves skin dry.

Cons:

Stings. Smells bad and burns your nostrils. Spot treatment is hard to use and it's messy. Made me breakout more. This is probably the worse breakout I ever had. Beware of this product.

I do not recommend this product.
August 19, 2008

Pros:

It worked the first month

Cons:

It stopped working after a month of use and my face broke out worse than before i started and in big pimples. Murad also dried out my pores

Look for another Product
