Pros:

I really like the Moisturizer and the AHA Exfoliating.

Cons:

I've gotten like small spots on my chin which I never had before!

I've been using Acne Complex Kit plus other acne stuff from Murad like Clarifying mask the AHA exfoliating for almost 4 months now and honestly I expected more! It feels like nothing much has happend and the spots I have on my chin and even around the mouth I have never had that before. I'll try a couple of more weeks and if I dont see any progress then bye bye Murad "/! But I think its worth a try thou :)

Pros:

the moisturizer is good.

Cons:

the exfoliating cream made my face really red and burned it.

i've been useing this product for two weeks now and it seems like my face is worst then befor they say that that is supposed to happen but since its been two weeks you would think it would start getting a little clearer i guess i will just wait the whole four weeks maybe it will be better.

Pros:

The Cleanser smells good!

I am not done using this system. My mom ordered the 4 week kit for me. The first week, as it said, it started to clear up, I am on my 2nd going on 3rd week and behold the purging process. I am actually getting less pimples, but the ones I currently have, it really must be cleaning out the pores because I can pop the same pimple over and over. Things I like about it: the cleanser doesn't make my face red, only when I have to rub all the other stuff on does it turn red, which is just from me rubbing my face because I have sensitive skin. The 2nd step serum smells icky but it's tolerable. The spot treatment doesn't really amaze me, but I like the mask, and the moisturizer is ok. At least it's not greasy or irritating. I have been to esthetician school and I see a lot of people on here saying they have had really bad experiences but NEWS FLASH: MURAD CONTAINS SULFUR, AND A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE ALLERGIES TO SULFUR WHO PROBABLY DON'T KNOW IT.

Pros:

Reduced Breakouts after the third week and made it look a lot healthier.

Cons:

You have to be super consistent stick with it and eat a little bit healthier.

People can't just say "o im gunna but this on my face and its going to clear up." You have to follow the instructions they give you exactly. They also tell you that your skin will purge. Making old covered up blemishes come to your attention in a mission for more HEALTHY skin.

Pros:

It was light on my skin :)

Cons:

Didn't make it worse NOR better.

I have oily sensitive skin that usually gets red and irritated after using over the conuter acne meds. Usually my skin doesn't react very well with acne products but this didn't irritate my skin. The bad thing is that it didn't improve my problem... I did love the moisturizer though.

Pros:

The complex kit has a good consistency and it doesn't smell bad.

Cons:

Kit made my face red, and dry.

I do not care for this product very much. The face wash made my cheeks and my t-zone quite red, the spot treatment dried out my skin and also made it red, the lotion is greasy and doesn't work well, and I don't really care for it at all.

Pros:

Smells nice, I think it has made my pores smaller..

Cons:

My skin wasn't that bad before, now over a month in, I have spots around my mouth and chin, which I never had, and little spots all over my forehead.

I don't know if now I am paying more attention to my skin so I notice the imperfections, or if Murad are trying to make my skin worse so I keep using the product to wait to work. I spent enough money on this to feel like I have to carry on. I only read good reviews before I bought, and I wish I would have read all of these before too! I think I will carry on until I run out of the products and see what it's looking like then..

I need a system 2 COMPLETELY get rid of my light pimples n scars 4 good. I was just about 2 call them and order the product but something told me 2 read some reviews 1st.. THANK GOD I did.. I am NOT going 2 buy it! I use 2 have moderately severe acne until I went 2 a store that has natural skin products (all products have natural ingredients). I started taking these herbal pills called hair, skin, & nails .. those pills ALONE REALLY help my skin TREMENDOUSLY.. along with that I use black soap with cocoa butter (or I THINK it might have shea butter but either 1 will help) every morning and a reg.scrub @ night (cheap Walgreens face scrub works 4 me).. about 3 weeks ago I started using a spot cream 2 fade my acne scars more, IT WORKS.. and about once a week I use a mask.. its powder stuff called "Indian Healing Clay" that I mix with raw apple cider or just water. It may sound like a lot of products but they're cheap and they all work.
