Pros: Scent
Cons: Too drying, even for oily skin

| brammerkm's Full Review: Murad Acne Prone Skin Formula |
Murad's Acne Prone Skin Formula Cleanser is good for occasional use, but it tended to dry out my oily skin. I had been acne prone for a number of years, but this cleanser made me feel too tight after using, and a little flaky later.
If you have really oily skin, over-drying it may cause more oil production, so it seems to continue a bad cycle.
It did not seem to be effective for me. I found much more help using vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid) 8 grams a day to eliminate my acne, although cleansing is an important step in maintaining healthy skin--especially if you use makeup.
Washing with a pH-balanced cleanser will probably help your skin more than over-drying.
