Pros:

Makes skin softer.
Sulfur Mask works great.

Cons:

My skin wasn't oily before, and this product made it oily.
Made me breakout where I didn't before.

It makes skin soft, but oily, but didn't help my acne.

Pros:

Got read of my mild acne, Lightened my acne scars and made my skin smoother and softer.

Cons:

So expensive.

I needed an acne treatment to clear up my breakouts that I would get once or twice a month ( only about 3 or so pimples) so I decided to give this a try because the sales woman at the store swore by it. She said her kids use it and they have really bad acne, and if i didn't like it I could return it and get my money back. So I said hey why not, since day one of using this product I saw an improvement in my skin tone, and even since then I have not gotten any pimples or blackheads. I love this product, everyone skin is different and what what works for one person may not work for someone else. I would and have recommended this product to my friends. I only gave 4 stars because of the price being so expensive. I love it!!!

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:

did clear it up somewhat, but again for the price should have been worked better. I only bought the wash and the spot treatment.

Cons:

Drys skin out, however a light moisturizer fixes it. Scarring still bad. redness stays.

Too pricey for not being that effective.

Pros:

Smells good and makes my skin feel good!

Cons:

Expensive - but good skin is worth it!!

I had been using Proactiv for 5+years and my face was starting to break out so I decided to change my regiment. I have to say that in the first two weeks I noticed my skin was softer and not as dry as it used to be from using the repairing lotion from the Proactiv kit. Then from about week 3-5 my face went through the purging process and all I can say is thank goodness for makeup!! I had major breakouts but, by week 5 I was cleared up and looking great. I am now only left with the red acne scars which I hope will eventually fade by using the Murad products. I am sooo glad I gave this chance and I think it is important that people realize everyone's skin is different. What may work for me may not work for you .... or it might!!!! Try it !!!
