Product used: Proactiv Solution (Refining Mask)
Cons:
gets my pillow dirty.
worth the usual $10 price-tag's effort, even if it doesn't work you'll be writing a review helpful for anyone who may have similar skin that won't work with this. i don't know... just try it.

Product used: Murad (Acne Complex)
Pros:
Feels fresh afterward
Cons:
New acne
I've been using the product for a month: Week 1: Wow! my skin is consistently clearing up!
Week 2: Occasional unexplainable zits. Side effects perhaps?
Week 3-4: Uncontrollable acne all over. I have been using the product twice a day. I love the feel of it - not drying, fresh, lotion is a must. I liked the combination of the spot treatment and the Salicylic Acid gel. However, after 2 weeks it's all back and more! I've heard of developing tolerance for any acne medication you use, but in 1 week?!! I am going to a dermatologist next. I don't recommend the product, because of lack of its consistence. Also, keep in mind that purchasing a 30 day kit, you will be charged full price every 30 days thereafter.

Product used: Murad (Acne Complex)
Pros:
Smells nice, I think it has made my pores smaller..
Cons:
My skin wasn't that bad before, now over a month in, I have spots around my mouth and chin, which I never had, and little spots all over my forehead.
I don't know if now I am paying more attention to my skin so I notice the imperfections, or if Murad are trying to make my skin worse so I keep using the product to wait to work.
I spent enough money on this to feel like I have to carry on. I only read good reviews before I bought, and I wish I would have read all of these before too!
I think I will carry on until I run out of the products and see what it's looking like then..

Product used: Murad (Acne Complex)
Pros:
feels light on my skin
Cons:
made me break out waaaaay worse than I ever have.
I suffered with terrible acne for years, tried everything- accutane, antibiotics, acne facials etc. I started using proactive 4 years ago and my face cleared up amazingly. I read up on Murad and liked how it seemed a little more natural and moisturizing. After 2 weeks my face started breaking out.. i thought maybe it was purging. but now after using murad for almost 2 months my face is continually getting worse and worse. I'm throwing this expensive garbage away and going back to my old faithful-proactive.

Product used: Murad (Acne Complex)
Pros:
The face wash is great and left my skin feeling clean and the skin perfecting lotion seemed to work good, too. Cleared my face for about a month.
Cons:
After a month my breakouts came back with a vengeance! Its kinda pricey since it doesn't work that great. And the treatment gel smells like rotten eggs. Seriously.
I'm sure it works for some people with light acne, but it definetly didn't work for me. After about a month, I broke out worse than ever! I don't reccomend this product.

Product used: Murad (Acne Complex)
Pros:
None.
Cons:
-It purged my skin aka more skin breakouts.
I tried and purchased the whole Murad Acne Kit, which is 4 pieces. I had gorgeous Gabrielle Union skin until around 19 years old. My skin at that time, randomly breaking out. Because I have been diagnosed with hormonal acne, my skin one minute is clear, then just breaks out. So, I can't say if it is moderate or light. Def. not severe though. I bought this kit because their infomercial stated how gentle it was compared to Proactiv.
But within a short period of using this, my pimples became cluster-Cysts on both sides of my face. After my skin healed, I was left with really ugly acne hyperpigmentation on both sides of my face. It looked awful and took months to disappear. As a woman of color, I can't afford to purge, as once the breakout heals, I get hyperpigmentation. I think this is the worst product I tried.
Pros:
ProActiv. awesome. bought 3 2.5 oz packs for $20 + $5 shipping.
used 2-5 times each week overnight and results were excellent.
the first night of the week you use it, it only brings out your acne... seems to force all oils and acne to the surface. the second time, you'll barely see any acne and will have a much healthier looking skin-tone.
washes off easy with Irish Spring.
best value compared to any acne treatment + cost, besides Acnexus.
