Murad Acne Complex Starter Kit

Pros: works great, no excessive drying, worth a try!
Cons: exfoliating acne treatment gel in weird unsqueezable bottle. expensive to buy individually when kit's gone

after carefully reading other epinions on this product, i decided to try the murad acne complex starter kit. i have had for the most part perfect skin my whole life, so now in my mid 20's, the occasional break outs are horrific for me to deal with! i ...

Pros: It realy works, pimples and redness went away after about 2 weeks. Very impressed!
Cons: Bitter, vinegar-y smell of treatment gel, and skiny skin after gel, moisturizer, and sunscreen.

I was at Jolie day spa in downtown Bethesda getting a facial when the woman reccomended the Murad line for managment of my acne. I thought it was somewhat of a scam considering my past failure with guerlain, proactiv and dermologica (also reccomended by ...

Pros: everything!
Cons: a little expensive, but it's worth the price.

Now, let me tell you that I have not personally used this product, my sister has. Let me then tell you the story of her struggle with acne. It started when she was around 13, when she hit puberty, got her period, all that stuff. Her skin because very ...

Pros: Actually works!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cons: It is a "for life" commitment (not bad considering the results)

This is, without a doubt, the best acne product on the market. I have battled combination skin since my teens (I'm now 30), and I have tried everything. Murad has made it possible for me to go without foundation and not feel self conscious at all! In ...

Pros: Smooth, healthy, acne free, clean feeling, easy process
Cons: Pricey, slow start, acne will worsen for 2 weeks to 2 months before clearing

Normal online shopping experience on multiple occasions (have not done so by phone yet). Products always arrived in less than one week. I did a lot of reading of customer reviews, the good and the bad, before starting the Murad program. Thus, I knew what ...

Pros: Refreshing cleanser, gentle, flexible product combinations for custom treatment
Cons: Requires a bit of patience to make it through the purging process

I have very sensitive skin--dry, but with breakouts that have been getting increasingly worse through my twenties. Though it took a few weeks, this kit, specifically the cleanser and treatment gel, has completely cleared up my skin. I had slowly ...

Pros: REally works!! easy system
Cons: Smells a little weird. Pretty expensive

I have had troubled skin since as long as i can remmember. I have been on prescription medication for years now. Im 20 years old and have oily skin. My prescription stuff wasnt really getting the job done so i figured ill try this stuff, got nothin to ...

Pros: Fantastic kit for oily/acne prone skin.
Cons: Not for sensitive skin. Cost for full size products expensive but worth it.

I've been using Murad skin care products for 11 years. I've used all of the products in the Acne Complex Starter Kit as well as others made by Murad. People new to Murad should be aware that Murad has a *very* extensive product line catering to all ...

Pros: Works fast, no benzoyl peroxide.
Cons: Expensive.

I am very happy with this product. I bought the starter kit from Sephora in Canada where they charge $60! I really like the step 1 face wash, the consistency and the way it rinses off is awesome. However, the step 2 Exfoiliating Acne Gel caused the ...

Pros: Unisex care at a decent price. Convenient. Great customer service.
Cons: Not a perfect fit with my skin as prescribed; need patience.

I have had a love/hate relationship with my skin my entire life. If it weren't the freckles in elementary school, it was the acne in high school. Now, at 33, I have skin I can't even identify on those handy "What is your skin type" charts. My skin is ...

Pros: cleared my skin up very quickly, fabulous deal, great products
Cons: medicinal smells, very strong products, drying for me when used as a kit

I don’t usually have acne, but I do get breaks out somewhat often. My skin is so sensitive that if I rest my hand on my face while watching TV, I’ll get a pimple. If I use a new skin care product or new makeup product the odds are really good ...

Pros: Clears skin very quickly. Makes you feel squeaky clean.
Cons: Personally, it gets worse before it gets better.

I got this product out of desperation. I'd seen ads for Proactiv on TV and was moments away from ordering it when I decided I'd read some reviews on it. Hardly any I read said that it was any good, so I turned to Murad. After getting the product I saw an ...

Pros: Cleanses, prevents and treat skin.
Cons: Spot Treatment is nothing extraordinary, but the other products are great!

In May, some friends and I headed for the Sephora store in the Lenox mall in Atlanta. At that time, I was experiencing a breakout that was just pure evil. I decided I was going try something new to clear it up and control any future breakouts. The ...

Pros: skin seems to be responding
Cons: burns and itches for about 15 minutes, tiny bottles!!

I'm 22 and have usually mild but very occasionally moderate acne. It's only on my forehead and chin/mouth area. I used to use proactiv's three step system until I a got 2nd degree sunburn on my face. After I started using proactiv again (about 2 ...

Pros: Helps to keep oily skin at bay, dries up zits, evens out skin tone.
Cons: Chemical smell, makes dry skin a bit itchy, skin a little red.

I am 25 and have mild and sometimes moderate acne, I feel as if I always have at least 1-2 zits on my face - especially on my chin and forehead. I have always had an oily t-zone and never really developed acne until my 20's. I am obssesed with my skin ...
