Product used: Murad (Acne Complex)
Cons:
Horrible constant brakouts, dry flaky patches of skin, makes skin an oil slick after 3-4hrs of putting onto already oily prone skin.
Tried once after Proactiv faliled me years ago, so after like 5 years I came back around to it, yeah, still look bad, all kinds of acne now, in plaaces it never was before. I have horrible acne scarring now. Just mad, think ima try a combo treatment with the ben. perioxide that proactiv has with sal. acid murad has. maybe that will work

Product used: Murad (Acne Complex)
Pros:
The smell is nice and ever since the first use my face felt extremely hydrated and soft.
Cons:
Nothing really... I havent experienced anything bad with it.
Acne needs time and patience. Some people may say that they get a massive increase of acne.. but thats just the purging process. You have to stick out with it until that process is over.. than you will see beautiful results. I have severe acne.. and have had it since i was 14. I've used, proactive, skinID, neutrogena, biore, clinique and every other possible acne treatment... and this, so far, has worked the best for me.

Product used: Murad (Acne Complex)
Pros:
Everything worked! I finally found a product which removed my spots. The first week you could
Cons:
I didn't find it sooner + the second medication stung my face, but then sometimes I used an excessive amount.
I would buy this product if you had mild acne like me. Yeah the price is a bit... off, but if you really think about it all those times you were looking for the right medication, in total you might of spent more than $100.

Pros:
It's natural, nice consistency, hygenic packaging. Did not dry me out and the combination of natural and traditional acne treatments is keeping me not 100% acne free but about 90%.
Cons:
You can't get products ala carte so I go through the cleanser twice as fast as the treatment creams. The cleanser takes off foundation great but not so great with mascara, use a makeup remover.
Love this stuff. I've been suffering with moderate but persistant acne for over 30 years and this is the first product that actually has my skin looking healthy and keeps the zits to a minimum and occassionally nonexistent. The fact that it's natural isa huge plus too. I find that the Zinc night treatment works better with a lactic acid cream on top.

Product used: Murad (Acne Complex)
Pros:
The cleanser is really nice. It doesn't wash away essential oils and doesn't leave your skin dry. You also don't have to use a lot to get a good lather.
Cons:
A bit expensive.
This is a very good product. I use it twice a day everyday. If you can't use it the way it needs to be used, then it isn't worth the expense. As far as the purging period goes, it was only about a week for me. This is the only product that has worked consistently for me. It doesn't dry out my skin and it has a moisturizer built into the system!

Product used: Proactiv Solution (Refining Mask)
Pros:
Works well. I saw results after the first use really.

Dries out your skin if you don't moisturize right after washing it off.
Works great.

Product used: Murad (Acne Complex)
Pros:
the cleanser ALONE really reduces redness.
Cons:
it DOES NOT work. makes skin itchy and red. PURGING!!! (purging is the beginning when it makes the pimples HUGE!) IRRATATES THE SKIN!!!
for some people it works for others it doesnt. They lie and says 100% satasfaction but its not true. im 14 years old and have been suffering from acne since i was 8 and this has made my skin 5 times worse about a month ago i switched to epiduo and dyoxyclin and already my skin is starting to look fantastic i was on murad for 3 months and it did nothing in fact it did the opposite. Try it but dont be stupid like me and stay on it for 3 months waiting for it to work because trust me, it wont. good luck

Product used: Proactiv Solution (Refining Mask)
Pros:
Lovely product. I was highly skeptical about proactiv but it works better than anything I've tried. The mask is excellent for slowing down break outs, and is great to help clear up your skin faster. It's also soothing, and doesn't seem too overdrying
Cons:
I'm very inspired by nature, and it has chemicals, but it works. The smell? I've read bad things about it, but I think it all smells clean and refreshing. =D Also the only thing about the mask is it takes an effort to get all of it off.
It works better than anything I've used. I started having acne problems around the early age of 10. I've tried accutane (NEVER EVER USE IT, IT'S HORRIBLE FOR YOUR BODY. I was on it for about two months, and I said this is horrible for me. NO WAAY), all different types of natural remedies, acnexus (was great for exfoliation and that is all) and more. I'm still taking antibiotics w/ it. Proactiv is simple, and it works. Once my skin is completely cleared I will SLOWLY wean my skin off of it. Just so I can use natural remedies that are good for the skin.
Pros:
Cleared me up at first, then I dont know what happened.
