Pros:

it comes in a cute little package and smells good

Cons:

didn't work on my skin... and very expensive.

im not sure if my skin is just nonresponsive to salicylic acid, but it didn't do a thing for me. it seems to be alright for some people if salicylic acid works for you.

Pros:

There are no pro's,

Cons:

no signs of working after 10 days, the next 20 just made it worse and breaks became even worse.

Dont waste your money, the product barley lasts 30 days, the skin perfecting lotion lasted about 16 days and called costumer service and complained they did nothing, terrible product

Pros:

none for me =(

Cons:

everything! I wanted to cry when I saw my face

My face was worse, just like everybody else >< my skin hurt too! The little lotion... the repairing one? The one in the smallest tube... that was the most evil thing! I was allergic to it,.. probably... the cleaner was safe. It cleaned my face well =D and it felt minty and cool. But whatever! I hate everything else! *returns*

Pros:

It actually works - removes makeup, doesn't clog pores, kills bacteria...my acne has gotten better - knock on wood

Cons:

I think I may be building a tolerance

Try it out for a month - at least. Hopefully, you don't build a tolerance, because it would be a miracle wash.

Cons:

smells so bad it smells like your face was burned

I used this product for 3 weeks and almost all of my acne is gone I think all the people who used this product never realy used it and there trying to make murad look bad. and some people are saying the spot treatment drys your skin your only required to put that on your pimples to speed up healing

I WISH I WOULD HAVE LOOKED AT ALL THESE REVIEWS BEFORE I STARTED USING THIS CRAP! THATS WHAT IT IS CRAP!!! FIRST OF ALL I AM COMPLETELY CLEAR NOW THANKS TO THE REMARKAMBLE PROACTIV SOLUTION!!! I STARTED USING PROACTIV IN FEBRUARY OF 2005. I STARTED USING IT BECAUSE I HAD BEEN USING PROACTIV AND WAS ACTUALY ON STEROIDS FOR A SICKNESS WHICH GAVE ME A FEW BREAKOUTS NOTHING MAJOR SO I AM THINKING MAYBE THE MURAD WILL HELP CLEAR IT UP BETTER THAN THE PROACTIV. BIY WAS I WRONG!!!!! I BEGAN USING IT AND THE FIRST WEEK I REALLY SAW NO IMPROVEMENT OR ANY BREAKOUTS AND THEN BY THE SECOND AND THIRD WEEK MY FACE WAS COMPLETELY OVERED IN TINY BUMPS IT ACTUALLY LOOKED LIKE A HEAT RASH ALL OVER!!! I WAS INCERDIBLY PISSED OFF!!!! I CALLED THE MURAD PEOPLE AND THEY SAID THAT THIS IS THE PURGING PERIOD, BULLSH*T!!! YOUR SKIN IS NOT SUPPOSED TO BREAKOUT ALL OVER THEN CLEAR UP. I RETURNED IT. NOW I AM BATTLING SOME MILD SCARRING AND HAVING TO GET GLYCOLIC PEELS. USE PROACTIV NOT MURAD!!!!!!

Pros:

ha!

Cons:

glad I didnt order after reviewing all of these.

I called and the first thing they asked me was my credit card type and card number. I then said WOW can you tell me about this product first and they said ' well what do you want to know mam, didnt you get all of the information off the info(on TV)' .....How unprofessional and sounded like a scam. Will never order from a business like that. BYE!

Pros:

nice tingly feeling i guess.

Cons:

Using Murad, i have worse acne than i probably ever had using acne free, clean and clear, proactive, zeno...ect. It's bad. Don't buy it. plus I am out of it and they automatically ship it to me and i should have gotten it over a week ago.

This product is bad!

Pros:

None

Cons:

Everything...I broke out in places I never did. It's been 2 1/2 weeks and I'm still purging??? I don't think so! I went back to Proactive and see an approvement already. I just returned it so hopefully no issues with my refund

If you don't want to break out more than you already do don't use this!
