Pros:

NOTHING!!!!!!!!!!

Cons:

EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!!

This was the worst product I have ever used, make me break out like never before with a vengence. Turned my spots into deep blisters. Has taken months to get skin back to normal and now have scars. Also, this is scary stuff. Look at the cosmetics database website, it gives the kit a 9 out of 10 in terms of harzards of ingredients.

Pros:

none

Cons:

Broke my face out even more. This product is horrible. I thought for the price it would work, I was wrong! I got very large painful acne after using this product for 5 weeks. I got proactiv and it is finally clearing up.

Don't waste your money.

Pros:

The first couple of days are fine..

Cons:

and then your face explodes into severe, painful, cystic acne the like of which you have not seen before. and to think about how much you paid to have your face this destroyed... it is so depressing. i really wish i had read these reviews before.

this product will thoroughly damage your skin. it did mine, to the degree i am self-conscious at work and hope i don't run into anyone i know while i'm out. please save your money and self-esteem and try something else.

Pros:

none

Cons:

I cleared up for about 4 days then broke out worse than i have ever done before. After about 3 weeks i had to quit because my skin was the worst it has been in my life.

Stay far away from this product. It is just another infomercial scam. They promise you clear, beautiful skin and give you the exact opposite. I would never have used this stuff if i knew what it was going to do to me. I was extremely disapointed and am still recovering. Thank god its mostly gone now.

It is better than Proactiv. Takes off redness and pimples.

Long treatment. Twice a day.

It did make a change in my face but it didn't work as said on TV. I still recomend it because it still looks pretty good.

Pros:

Nice look

Cons:

Smells horrible & most importantly doesn't work

This product really stinks!!! About 3 weeks ago I started noticing my acne was getting a little bit worse than it normally does, I had seen Murads advertisment on T.V. & it sounded convincing to me, so I thought why not. The first week it cleared my acne only a little bit, the second week I noticed I had acne on places of my face that I had never had before ever, I thought it was strange, but thought that maybe it might be from something else. The third week I noticed it was just getting worse & worse. My chin & forehead are completely covered in acne, I used to have mild acne & this crap has given me acne in places I've never had it...not just a little either. I would not recommend this to anyone, its a load of bull.

Pros:

Smells nice, nice texture. Easy to use. The cleanser makes your skin feel clean.

Cons:

No Improvement. Ineffective. Too expensive.

I have seen no improvement using this product and am extremely disappointed. I had hoped this would be the product to finally clear my skin. Just as ineffective and disappointing as Proactive in my opinion, and WAYYYYY too expensive. The Acne Spot Treatment sucks, complete waiste, doesn't work at all. I am fed up with Acne products completely. WHEN WILL I FIND ONE THAT REALLY WORKS??
