Product used: Murad (Acne Complex)
Cons:
after a while it broke me out really bad around the jaw and neck, and now i have scars and irritation
This product worked and then didnt work really badly, drying my skin out and breaking me out around the mouth, jaw and neck. I now have really bad scaring and it looks like ive had a chemical burn because my face is red and the skin is uneven and blotchy. I really loved this product to begin with, as it was my saviour after 3 years of proactiv made be immune to it, but now after reading all these comments i think my skin is horrible now because of the long term use of murad.

Product used: Murad (Acne Complex)
Pros:
noneee
Cons:
everythinggg
i hate murad!! i used everything in the package except the cleanser twice a day for a week, and i broke out like crazyy! i know they said it's just the purging process, but my skin wasn't even bad to begin with and it made me break out everywhere. i started getting small and painful bumps all over my cheeks and jawline, which has never happened before. my friends have used murad before and it hasn't helped them either; i don't know why i even bothered. it's not worth it at all!! it's been 2 weeks since i've stopped using it, and my skin has improved, but it's still recovering from that awful murad! stay awayy!!

Product used: Murad (Acne Complex)
Pros:
skin perfecting lotion
Cons:
everything else
skin perfecting lotion is only a moisturizer, so it does its job. facewash is nice and cool but did nothing to clear my skin. neither did the gel or spot treatment. i wouldnt waste my money on this again

Product used: Proactiv Solution (Refining Mask)
Pros:
It dries out pimples.
Cons:
It works, but still overpriced.
If they sold it at a more reasonable price and made it more readilly available...then I bet they would make more money. I don't know what their problem is.

Product used: Murad (Acne Complex)
Pros:
The cleanser really cleans your face well!
Cons:
The acne spot treatment RUINED my face!
After using countless products,(neutrogena, clearasil, clean&clear, just to name a few products that gave me mediocre results)I wanted to see if there were any better products out there and had seen infomercials on acne complex which made it seem absolutely amazing.Well I wish I had read this message board before buying that sh** called acne complex. I used that junk (I'm mainly referring to spot treatment) for under two weeks and it not only made my face dry and flaky around my mouth which even mousturizers couldn't repair, but it also BURNED like NONE OTHER when I applied it sparingly on the few pimples I had! I will admit it cleared some of my acne pimples, however though, in replace of the pimples, it left my inner cheeks and upper forehead TOMATO RED! It looks somewhat like rosacea and I'm praying it won't lead to scarring. To sum this ordeal up, I just want to strongly advise you to not make the same mistake I made! Instead, buy Proactiv, a MUCH better product in my opinion.

Product used: Proactiv Solution (Refining Mask)
Pros:
This product is very good.I have been using this for only a week, and I can see my skin clearing up.The redness is gone, and my pimples and zits are starting to fade.
Cons:
The smell of the mask can be approved, and the price of it is kind of high.
It helped me with my acne a lot.
When your using this product, do not just leave it on for 10 minutes or so, just leave it on overnight, and you will see SOME results the next morning.

Product used: Murad (Acne Complex)
Pros:
The skin perfecting lotion is superb. The Retinol is the key.
Cons:
1.7oz is great, but a little small.
If you find that one of these products in the regimen works for you, buy it separately. Do not be a bias idiot after one use. I doubt after one use your face is catching on fire; lets get a grip people.

Product used: Murad (Acne Complex)
Pros:
none, really.
Cons:
Did not work for me. Very expensive, caused worse breakouts after using for 4 weeks
We are all different, so it may work for you, but I felt like Proactiv was better than this.

Product used: Murad (Acne Complex)
Pros:
gets rid of blackheads, comes with a moisturizer, spot treatment gets rid of new blemishes
Cons:
stings a little, expensive
Don't use the exfoliatiing gel as often as advised by the box. I use the lotion from the kit once every day, and another non-irritating lotion the rest of the time.
Although this seems to not work well for some people, I have used this for a while now and have seen far fewer new blemishes. My skin looks good. It's expensive but potentially worth it. Just pay attention to the signals your skin sends you--if it hurts, slow down with the acids and sulfur and moisturize it.
Pros:
at first it worked so well. beautiful skin and lots of compliments
