Here's the deal with ProActiv.

The people that say it works wonders...they have good skin. I used to have horrible skin, so I tried ProActiv. It took care of the new pimples, but it wouldn't get rid of the ones i've had for years and couldn't get rid of. It basically CONTROLS the acne, it doesn't TREAT it. It isn't worth the money, but that's my personal opinion.

If you have acne, go to the dermatologist and they will reccomend a cream or face wash, those things work.

personally i use proactiv and i'm happy with it but it hasn't made my acne disappear completely.

i used to have really bad acne and proactiv has helped to keep it under control. that doesn't mean that i never get zits, i do. proactiv isn't a miralce worker. but it is worth a try.

and don't give up on it quickly. it takes a couple weeks to start working, plus it doesn't get rid of the acne that most people get during their period. i still break out more during my period, but when i don't have my period my acne is very minor. plus proactiv reduces the redness caused my acne and it smooths your skin making it easy to apply concealer to any zits that you might still have.

but it is definitly worth a try =]

i hated proactiv. all it did was make my skin smoother but never did much for acne and i used it for about a year and a half. however i do know people that it has worked for, so if you want to, try it and see if it works for you! i have no idea about murad.

it depends on your skin since everyone has different skin. It'll work better with some than others. try it and see if it works, and if it doesn't, try something else.

I give Proactiv an 18 on a scale of 1-10. It's amazing. I love it. :)

ProActiv is okay. On a scale of 1 - 10, I'd give it a 6. It didn't make all of my acne go away, but it got rid of the redness and the little bumps on my forehead, so that's really cool.
It's expensive though! So I'd say get the trial adn see if it works for you, if it doesn't then don't order it again, but if you like it then great!

Good luck.
