July 23, 2009

Pros:

Made my skin very soft & clean! I was using a few topical creams & they worked for a couple years but suddenly stopped & I started getting these little white bumps all over my face so a friend told me about Murad & now the bumps are almost all gone!

Cons:

It made my skin a littel red and uneven at first & purged my skin pretty bad but it was worth it cuz my skin looks 100% better than it did before I used it :)

Great product! It might make your skin uneven or dry at first but if you just give it time it is amazing.
July 6, 2009

Pros:

Cleared up my face the first two months of using it.

Cons:

Stopped using it for a while and broke me out! My pimples were WORSE than it ever was.

I had very light acne when I first started using this product. At first I was extremely happy with the results, because my face completely cleared up! After a while when I stopped using it, I broke out with a tons of pimples. When I went back to this product, it did not work anymore. I now have sever acne, and have been looking for a cure since. I am not 100% sure that the reason for my breakouts is because of Murad, but it was the last product I used before my face started breaking out. But I know for a fact that I will NEVER go back to using Murad.

Pros:

Worked really well with my skin and cleared it up

Cons:

none really except just sticking with the routine

It was worth the money and I saw good results. Combine this system with their supplements and lots of water and your good to go

Pros:

Works!

Cons:

Smells kind of peculiar, Some dry patches but nothing compared to the 30+ previous acne products I've tried.

It works, works, works! Though the infomercial said it will take 4 weeks, it took 8+ weeks for me, but it is very worth it. My skin is not only healthy but hydrated and clean! Very refeshing.

IT WORKS
March 9, 2009

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!

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:

didnt smell too bad, didnt dry out skin

Cons:

acne spot treatment bottle is tiny :(

ive been using this stuff for almost two months i think my skin is better. i would recomend Murad. the only bad thing was i noticed some new blackheads after using this...but acne is wayyyy better
January 30, 2009

Pros:

After one month my skin is clearer, no where near completely blemish free but I'm now on my second month and happy with the results so far.

Cons:

It is quite expensive and I don't know what the long term effects on my skin will be.

I would try this if benzol peroxide has not worked. It is easy to use and I'm hoping to be blemish free if the results keep happening with prolonged use. There is a definiate difference.
