Product used: Murad (Acne Complex)
Pros:
leaves skin soft and clear, use the product with the vitamin C lotion and maybe ill work
Cons:
not using the gel every day only once a week can stand the pain
After reading all the comments i am not sure of the results, but i don't want to go back to neutrogena or proactiv i am only 13 and that stuff was leaving my face full of red spots i am only in my 3rd week so i guess i will stay another week to see if it works

Product used: Murad (Acne Complex)
Pros:
Works for at least some people - but very rarely.
Cons:
Exfoliating gel burns and irritates my face.
I had moderate acne with a few scars that i wanted to get rid of. So i decided to use Murad to make my face clear - instead my face broke out to the extreme leaving my skin worse than it was before. I've been using their products for 3 weeks and a couple of days - almost the recommended 4 weeks, but my face broke out so much, that i'm more than 100% sure will not take only a couple of days to clear up.

Love!
I've tried countless products, oral, topical, prescription, otc, you name it I've tried it. Epiduo was one of the inly things to help my skin but unfortunately insurance wouldn't cover and it was too pricey without insurance. I've been suffering from acne since I was 15 and I'm now 26. I went and had an acne facial and the lady recommended this product. After reading reviews I was almost scared to try it! Luckily I decided to go ahead with it and within a week I noticed a lot of clearing. Still hesitatant, I wanted to give it a few more weeks and now my skin is almost completely clear! Ive never once written a review before but this worked wonders for me and with all the negative reviews on this I felt the need to share my positive experience! Love love love this stuff and I'm so grateful for my newly cleared skin

Product used: Murad (Acne Complex)
Pros:
Noticeable decrease in acne breakouts
Cons:
After using Murad once (the three step process) a few days ago, my skin is so irritated, dry, SWOLLEN, and RED!!! It's so much worse, I would trade 3 acne breakouts for the terrible feeling my face has right now. I do not have sensitive skin AT ALL, and I am suffering from this product. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if they recalled this product.
I will never recommend Murad, don't listen to the ads on TV, Murad will not decrease redness (it will induce it!), it IS like all other acne products that dry out your skin, except worse because it also makes your face swollen! Yes, Murad will decrease your pimples, but it will do so painfully. I put Murad on two nights ago for the first time, I woke up this morning with a swollen, red, and itchy face. My face is still itching and I just know my face will only get worse because I keep having to touch it! I am not the only one, look up alergic reaction Murad, and you will find a plethora of people like me, who have oily/combination (but not sensitive) skin who have had this type of reaction. Please do not try this product.

Product used: Murad (Acne Complex)
Pros:
CLEARED MY SKIN! Smells good, lasts a long time, afforable, get it at sephora(online or at store)....super love this product
heals acne fast if i pick at it
Cons:
made my skin breakout the 2nd-3rd week of using it and brought them to white heads that i had to pick at but the moisturizer and spot treatment heals it fast
also the gel stings the first couple weeks but it lessened as my skin got clearer.
I LOVE THIS STUFF! i used proactiv for years but it stopped working for me.. murad got rid of all my little underground bumps on my forehead and cleared my chin up. the first week it did some clearing, but the 2nd/3rd my face was bad (also because i break out before my period) so i was expecting it to anyway. i had gross white heads on my chin that i had to pick at- but the sulfur spot treatment healed them within 2 days. its the 4th week and i am so happy with the results. my skin is clear and i cant believe. i recommend this to anyone with skin that doesnt take to benzoyl peroxide. murad uses sulfur (love it) and salicyic acid. try it and give it atleast 4-5 weeks. i hope it works for you :o)

Product used: Murad (Acne Complex)
Pros:
Smell good, kills bacteria, good size bottles
Cons:
Burns, can make face really red, like sunburn. Can dry out face.
I used this a while ago because my dad got it for me. I used it and it worked great. Sadly I used it all up and my face broke out again. So I bought it again. It made my face red with a bit irritaion. But it's almost a week, and my skin has tiny whiteheads around lips and forehead, it got rid of my blackheads. I just have red scars left over from previous acne, and large red bumps, which I use the spot treatment on. Only one of the three seem to be going away. I hope I see better results fast!

Product used: DDF (Sulfur Therapeutic Mask)
Pros:
This is the only thing that gets rid of bad breakouts and giant cysts! It quickly draws zits/cysts to a head for easy draining w/out torturing your face. I discovered this when we were on vacation and I had a huge triple-head cyst.
Cons:
It doesn't smell bad...there's MUCH worse! It make a great overnight spot treatment, but requires moistening w/water for a minute before washing off. Otherwise, this stuff rocks!
When I'm having a bad breakout and feel desperate to clear my skin, I reach for my DDF sulfur mask. I have bought 4 jars and will keep buying this as long as I break out! Tip: you have to screw the lid on extra tight or it will dry out. I leave the foil seal half sealed and leave it on to prevent drying out.

Product used: Murad (Acne Complex)
Pros:
NONE what so ever.
Do not try this - I am saying this for the beauty of your own face!!
Cons:
Drys skin out, MORE break outs = , stinks!
Stresses you out because you've broken out in spots & then u stress even more because you've got spots! =
If you want to try it its up to you , but in all honesty I would NEVER recommend this to anyone!

Product used: Murad (Acne Complex)
Pros:
Skin becomes significantly smoother!!
Cons:
A little pricey.
Stings at first
This product reaally works. My skin got a little worse the first week using it, and then it just cleared up. I only get a couple pimples every now and then. It didn't clear up my black heads though.
Pros:
it really works! i use it for my undergrounds. lol. if u put it on when u notice it coming on...it gets rid of it without it ever sprouting to the surface.
