Pros:

Absolutely Nothing.

Cons:

Well just about everything. Smell is very medicinal and not at all nice. Extremely dry and tight skin.Flaking. Breakouts increased by 10000000000000%.

My face skin was dry every every day all the time and the pain was unbearable. Skin started flaking only a few days after use and even opening my mouth to speak was a chore because of how tight and dry my skin was. Please do yourself a favour and DO NOT buy this product. As for the purging process many people mention it doesnt last for 2 weeks, it lasts FOREVER and it WILL last forever. This thing ruined my skin!

Pros:

refreshing scent makes your face clean smooth and soft

Cons:

they should make there bottles bigger not enough product to last you 30 days

the purging sucks but after the purging clears you have soft smooth healthy skin BUT it takes more than 4 weeks to clear your skin. i still have dark spots and have been using this product for 5 weeks.

Pros:

Worked very well for my SENSITIVE skin!

Cons:

The exfoliating gel made my face slightly red for about 10 minutes after application

I wouldn't change my acne regimen after trying Murad. This is the first product to clear up my skin after it being ruined by birth control pills! Lately I have gotten little blackhead breakouts around my nose, but it's nothing the spot treatment can't clear up. This product is a bit pricy, but it has worked well for me. My skin is highly sensitive and allergic to everything, but surprisingly this product did me no harm. But remember everybody's skin is different!

Cons:

purging.

It really worked really great and cleared up almost everything for me.I am very grateful for Murad.Just remember that everyone has different skin and that everone's skin reacts to different washes and lotions and pills.Just keep searching or visit the dermatoligist.You will find a cure some day.

Pros:

Cleanser is nice.

Cons:

The acne treatmet bottle is what did it for me!

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:

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.

the kit is very good, it was my last hope and i will continue to use it.

Pros:

Fragance is good, best product i have tried...I have tried proactive, skin id, neutrogena, noxzema, clean and clear aveeno, and none of them work. This produt is really good even though i have sensitive skin.

Cons:

Bottles should of been bigger than what they are.

I love this product. My face feel so smooth and shiny. I think that this product is way better than proactive. I use proactive the 1st day I received the package tried it on and immediately my face turned red and swollen, it was really scary to see my face like that. But i guess every product doesnt work the same on everyone, bottom line is this product is doing what is suppose to do to my skin.

Pros:

smelled good

Cons:

no visable acne relief, purging stage NEVER ends

I stuck with the product because of the promise that the purging would stop, however, it never did. It made me break out in places I had never had acne problems with before and would wake up every morning with new blemishes and white heads. The pimples were painful, which never happened to me before. I stuck with the product for over two months and never saw any improvements. I got a prescription and saw immediate improvement in my skin.
