I’m sixteen, and I have been suffering from acne since I was about 12 years old. I’ve had mild to moderate acne almost all the time, plus a couple of more severe cases thrown in for good measure. I was becoming shy and withdrawn. I felt like I was on display. People would try not to stare, but I knew they wanted to look. Yesterday, a little girl I was babysitting asked me how many spots I have and if I ever tried to play connect-the-dots with them. That was it; I had to do something about my face.
When I went to school the next day, I made a trip to the nurse’s office. I told her what I was going through and how it was affecting my school performance, my social life, and my self-esteem. She looked at me and smiled. I was almost in tears, but she was smiling! I was getting mad now; how could she smile when I was so hurt?
Then she told me that she wasn’t smiling in spite of my feelings but because she knew about an acne treatment that could be the answer to my problem. She told me about how to use it, how long it should take to work, and how it might make my skin dry if that skin is sensitive. I have never had a problem with skin sensitivity or dry skin, so I wasn’t worried about those side effects.
When I went home and told my mom about it, she looked up Murad on the Internet right away. We read a bunch of Murad reviews, product testimonials, and other great information about Murad. After seeing all the good reviews that suggested using Murad for acne, I was getting really excited about it. My mom made the first order, and we waited for it to arrive.
I started using Murad on a Monday. Two weeks later, I was seeing a reduction in the amount of pimples I had. I wasn’t sure if it was because of the Murad or if they were clearing up on their own. By the forth week, my face was pretty much cleared up. I was so happy! No more acne to make me feel self-conscious. Now I could pull my hair back and let my whole face show with confidence.
Using Murad has opened up a new world for me. I have never been outgoing, and I probably never will be. But at least now I feel confident enough to talk to people, look them in the eye, and not think they are staring at my pimples; there are none to stare at. My school nurse was right; Murad does work, and it works very well.
I also have another new thing to thank Murad for. I have a date to the Christmas dance in two weeks. That isn’t going to be my first date, but it will be the first dance I’ve felt like going on. I feel so much happier with myself now thanks to Murad acne treatment. My life is going on, and I am growing up without acne for the first time in four years.
