Has anyone used Murad's acne treatment system?

I bought this set at Sephora, and it made my face swell after two uses. Eventually I got an itchy rash, and it took a week of Benadryl and a course of oral steroids for the swelling to go down. Has anyone had a similar problem? If so, what ingredient caused the reaction...any idea? I can%26#039;t pinpoint it, and I am desperate to try other products.





By the way, I know people who love the system, so I am not saying it%26#039;s bad. Also, Sephora happily refunded my money, which was awesome.|||Ditto!! After trying tons and tons of products I assumed that walking aroung with massive zits on my face for a month was part of the solution, as they said it will draw everything out. But I did have some swelling and tons of redness, but did not need steroids fortunately. I couldnt take it any more, I looked absolutely horrible. Did not return it because it was past one month and I thought they wouldnt take it back.|||I had the same experience a few years ago. Not only did Murad recommend the line to me, I did not even have acne. Like you, my face did swell but after the first use. My skin was itchy, dry, and flakey. When I contacted Murad they tried to tell me I was the first person to ever have a reaction which is rubbish. I think it%26#039;s the salicylic acid. Murad refused to accept responsiblity nor did they refund my money.





As an Arbonne consultant, I would recommend their Clear Advantage line, which is far superior and you won%26#039;t have such a dire experience.|||glad you had good luck with your refund, sorry you had to experiance this reaction. for an all natural acne remedy

Angelina O, has found that applying ACV topically to her face several times a day (4 or more times) has cured her of a %26quot;very bad complexion%26quot;. She reports that she applies it straight and that while it burns her skin a bit, it still works like a miracle!





Cheryl writes, %26quot;My daughter developed a case of moderate acne, and after trying a number of different things for over a year which helped very little or not at all, she started drinking 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar three times a day and applying it topically once at night. She has been acne free for two months. It took about three weeks to clear up.%26quot;
