Product used: Murad (Acne Complex)
Cons:
It took awhile. I have been using it for a year and a half and at first it made my acne worse, but then one day my acne quit coming up.
It works. It takes awhile, but it works! At first i did not have any faith in it. But my Facial lady who knows all about this stuff and highly recommends Murad, said that it gets worse before it gets better. So i kept believing her, and it finally works. At first i had dark spots from where my pimples use to be, and i still have a few, but i bought the Lightening gel and it's starting to make those dark spot go away slowly. I guess patients is a virtue with Murad. I would definitely recommend it I'm nineteen and have struggled with acne for years and i finally found something that works. I buy everything with it though so it can get pretty pricey. Oh and if your face hurts, the lotion and face mask makes it feel much better!

Product used: Murad (Acne Complex)
Pros:
It seemed to make acne bumps go down quickly.
Cons:
New acne formed every night and redness increased. Very irritating.
I do not have sensitive skin and have used harsh prescription treatments before where my skin adjusted within a few days. However, after almost 4 weeks, my skin still burns after using this product (I use a small amount). I am getting acne in areas that didn't break out prior to using this product. I got woken up in the middle of the night from the pain of new acne forming. That is where I draw the line and refuse to wait any longer to see if it eventually starts working. Don't try this product unless you are willing to risk getting worse acne for weeks. I'm sure it works for some people but there seems to be a lot of comments claiming it made their acne worse. I would love to see the actual data from their study claiming to improve the skin of 90% of the users. I couldn't find it on their website which seems odd to me. I feel like I've been scammed.

Product used: Murad (Acne Complex)
Pros:
IT WORKS!!!
Cons:
I wish the cleanser came in a HUGE pump bottle so I'll never have to go wothout it.
I've been using this line for about 2 years and am ecstatic that I finally found a product that works after trying every prescription and over the counter products out there. The cleanser takes of every trace of make up that when I use the toner I didn't see any make up on the cotton ball at all. When I run out and have to go wothout it for a couple of days to a week, I start seeing little pimples creeping up in a couple of days or so. Then I start usig it and it completely clears out my face again. I wouldn't have the clear skin I have now without this product. Proactive was not for me; I found it too drying and my skin actually hurt after applying it to my face. This product is so gentle it feels like you have nothing on your face yet it works.

Product used: Murad (Acne Complex)
Pros:
smooth the skin
bright complexion
Cons:
Produce more zits than ever, the freaking "purging process" like forever.
Dont you this product, even if u had mild or severe acne, it done nothing to ur face. I was so wrong to give this product a try. The acne product should cure the acne not making it worse n produce more pimples. I dont even understand how can they sell this stuff on television. What's a joke

Product used: Murad (Acne Complex)
Pros:
The soap feels fresh and cool, the lotion seems good too.
Cons:
Didn't help my acne, sulfur spot treatment smells like a sewage plant, the exfoliating gel burns because it has alcohol in it
I stuck with the system for a few months and it didn't seem to do a thing. Also, that spot treatment smells SO BAD and didn't clear much. It didn't really make it worse, and I do still use the lotion sometimes, but considering the price....not worth it.

Pros:
This product is available in natural foods markets (Trader Joe type of stores) and works better for me than Burt's Bees, St. Ives or Airbonne did. And because it is less expensive than Eminence or Rhonda Allison it is what I am currently using.
Cons:
It dries out my skin, the more expensive Eminence and Rhonda Allison did improve my skin more so with regular chemical peels and facials but I can no longer afford the botique route.
It is the best working product I have found that fits into my budget.

Product used: Murad (Acne Complex)
Pros:
It seems to work for some lucky people
Cons:
Just makes breakouts worse. It seems like overloads the skin with too much crap...
I hate Murad. I stuck with it for a few months thinking things might get better for me. When the acne line stopped working for me I thought maybe one of the other lines from Murad would help. Nope nothing helped. It's an overpriced product. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

Product used: Murad (Acne Complex)
Pros:
It makes your skin feel good. and moist
Cons:
I'lve been using it for 4 years know and it does not to much.
It's ok if you wnat to have it as a some kind of cream for your face. But for Acne it does not work well at all. over time it makes your complaxiton go dark as well. It's cost to much. I've spent a lot of money over the years on this product and it is just not worth it.

Product used: Murad (Acne Complex)
Pros:
Initally when i got I got I was happy with it. I had used Pro Activ for a couple of years and decided to try Murad.
Cons:
Omg ....now my face burns when i wash it. I am breaking out even more, more redness and dryness. Even make up won't cover them up.
I will wait another week...if it is still bad then I will request a refund and go back to Pro Activ. I did not start to get acne until I was an adult and I am willing to pay more for a product that works. At this point I would probably switch back to Pro Activ.
Pros:
Nice fresh feeling and smells nice, and also cleared up my acne!
