Description

CLARIFYING CLEANSER CLARIFYING TONER RAPID ACNE SPOT TREATMENT BIOME ACNE TREATMENT How often should I use this Clarifying Cleanser for the best results? For optimal results, use the Murad Clarifying Cleanser twice daily – once in the morning and once at night following up with moisturizer. Does this cleanser work well on acne-prone skin, and how long does it take to see results? Yes, this cleanser is effective for acne-prone skin. While individual results may vary, many users report improvements within a few weeks of consistent use. Can this product be used with other products containing salicylic acid? As we traditionally recommend a complete acne regimen, the Clarifying Cleanser alone can be incorporated into your regular skincare routine. Can I use this cleanser to remove makeup, or should I use a makeup remover first? While it can remove light makeup, it's recommended to use a dedicated makeup remover for heavier makeup. This cleanser is ideal for thorough cleansing of the skin. Can the Murad Clarifying Cleanser be used by both adults and teenagers? Yes, the Murad Clarifying Cleanser is suitable for both adults and teenagers. If skin sensitivity is a concern you can ease into treating your skin giving it time to adjust.

    • Check the expiration date / product is usually a miracle!
I've been using this cleanser for over a year and it has been wonderful. I am unsure of why there are so many negative reviews recently, perhaps there were defective items? I used to have bad cystic acne that would pop up every once in a while. I started with this cleanser and the serum in the same line. It helped immensely but it did take time. Give it at least a month before getting angry. Some things work and some things don't. That's life people. Anyways, I use this once per day, in the morning, and a more gentle cleanser at night. Because of this a bottle can last me more than 12 months. Amazing! I like that the ingredients fight acne continuously after you use it. Therefore I don't have to use additional acne products and can work on fighting other skin concerns like anti-aging. I start with a (yes, Murad) toner after cleansing, follow up with a serum and finally the Murad Essential C Day Moisture + SPF 30 to protect. It's the best moisturizer btw. I can't say enough great things about the product. It does what it claims and is super affordable especially for the quality. Once you receive your product check the expiration date to ensure that it's not expired (I mean, who really knows where these sellers got their items and how old they are??) This is how Murad explained it to me: The batch code on the product will provide you with the production date. The batch code consists of a letter-number-letter-number combination. The number represents the year of production and the 3rd letter represents the month it was produced. Sometimes there are two letters at the beginning, just focus on the number-letter combination. The code will be stamped on the bottom of the bottles/jar. For the tubes it will be stamped on the crimp when the back of the tube is facing you. For Example: N3L0 would have been created November of 2013 CC4F1 would have been produced June of 2014 CC5J2 would have been produced September 2015 We do not use the letter "I" in our codes. Below is the chart for the months of the year. A = January; B = February; C = March; D=April; E=May; F=June; G=July; H=August; J=September; K=October; L=November; M=December Any of our products, when stored properly and unused and unopened have a shelf life of 3 years unless there is an active ingredient listed. Active ingredients would include Salicylic Acid or sunscreens for example. These ingredients are listed separately from the other ingredients and their specific percentage is shown. In those cases the unused/unopened package has a shelf life of 2 years. ... show more

    • Good daily cleanser
Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Use this to double cleanse start with a foaming cleanser and use the Murad second. It has help with breakouts and foams up nice. Feels minty on the skin due to the tea tree leaf oil in it if that’s something you don’t like feeling.

I've been using this for years. Got tired of driving around to different stores to see if it was in stock and having to buy the small bottles. I'll continue buying from here.

    • There’s a Reason I’ve Used This for 15+ Years!
Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Love this stuff! When I started using this product years ago, I never looked back. I used to have troubled skin. Uneven skin tone, bad texture and acne. I used other products before I found Murad. Acne products can work very differently from person to person, but Murad worked for me. I use the clarifying cleanser and toner. I love that these products last for months, which is another bonus. A little goes a long way. It's been my tried and true for all this time and I don't foresee that changing! ... show more

    • Great product for sensitive skin
Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I have been using Murad for a long time and I am never disappointed. It is gentle on my very sensitive skin and doesn’t have a medicinal scent to it.
