Overrated, not worth it

by anon

Best Uses: Oily Skin

Describe Yourself: Brand Buyer

Bottom Line: not recommended

Salicylic acid is a terrible ingredient to be included in cleansers: first, it's just washed down the drain right away so there's no time for it to work, and second, it will get in your eyes & burn like hell. This product didn't work for me at all & it was very uncomfortable and made my eyes sting and tear.

Tingles as it works

Pros: Balances Skin, Improves Skin Texture, Leaves Clean Feel, Not Greasy, Smells Great

Best Uses: All Skin Types, Daily Use, Sensitive Skin

Bottom Line: recommended

This product worked better for me when I started combining it with the Murad Clarifying Toner. I little bit goes a long way. Even though it is [$]for 6 oz, it will last quite a while. I am 27 with adult acne and the Murad acne system is the only thing I have found that works for me (outside of going to a dermatologist).

Very nice

the WORST I've tried

by Gilda

in LA on 3/28/09

Cons: Horrible breakouts, Irritates Skin

Describe Yourself: Brand Buyer

Bottom Line: not recommended

I tried this because of all the reviews and I was so excited about finding the perfect cleanser. For the first 2 weeks, I didn't notice anything. Then in that 3rd week, my face exploded! I read all over the internet that "your face is supposed to get worse before it gets better" but after another week of hanging in there, I just had to stop. My entire face, including places where i never had acne, broke out. I was horrified, even puberty didn't look this bad. Infuriated, I returned the cleanser and went back to my old cleanser and started taking Minocycline. I used masks every night and dried the heck out of my skin using 10% benzoyl peroxide just to dry up all the pimples. After a week, things finally went back to normal. If you have the patience to "wait and see" what happens after the "purging process" then by all means...try it. Everyone I know who has tried Murad was disappointed.

Tried entire Acne line

by Nicole

in Baltimore, MD on 3/9/09

Pros: Gentle, Leaves Clean Feel, Not Greasy

Cons: Expensive

Best Uses: All Skin Types

Bottom Line: recommended

I picked up the Murad acne line including this face wash, the toner, the exfoliating gel, the clay mask, and the lotion. I've been using them for 6 weeks now, and the overall texture of my skin is radiant and clear. I still have a few breakouts from high stress, but I really like this line. The lotion and clay masks are my favorites as they work better than any others I have ever found! However, I think some of the success is due to the fact that Murad does an excellent job with getting you into a routine. Every day and night I cleansed, toned, treated, and hydrated! So, due to the price, I think that if I stuck to a routine using drugstore brands, I could keep my face radiant and clear. I may keep the clay mask though since I wouldn't go through it as quickly. This wash was gentle and cleaned thoroughly, although it's slightly drying (but it's supposed to be). You must follow with at least a lotion, if not also the toner. I highly recommend this wash if used correctly with other items for a complete regiment.

Great!

Pros: Clarifies Skin, Gentle, Improves Skin Texture, Leaves Clean Feel

Best Uses: Oily Skin, Problem skin

Describe Yourself: Brand Buyer

Bottom Line: recommended

I've tried a lot of products cheap and expensive, and this has been the best one I've used. With this I only needed to cleanse once a day and use a very small amount (from my observation, if I applied too much my skin would get a little irritated). I've moved on to more natural skincare products, but I still use this occasionally.

Very gentle

Cons: Dries Out Skin

Best Uses: Oily Skin

Bottom Line: recommended

It really works great for skin that is prone to breakouts. a bit strong for me but would recommend for people with problem skin. I ordered the wrong one. Murad is the best when it comes to skincare and will buy again. This time I will get the one for normal skin.

the best ever

by LS

in Fairfield County, CT on 1/9/09

Pros: Balances Skin, CONTROLS OIL, Calms and cools skin, Clarifies Skin, Deep Cleans, Gentle, Improves Skin Texture, Leaves Clean Feel

Best Uses: Acne control, Daily Use, Sensitive Skin

Describe Yourself: Brand Buyer

Bottom Line: recommended

this is the best acne cleanser I have ever used - the only thing that has worked. My skin is clear and calm like never before, with no new breakouts. Meanwhile it is improving the overall look of my skin and my pores are smaller. It did take medication to get my adult acne (age 30) under control (doxicyclene) but this cleanser has kept my skin clear once I've gone off it. My skin gets less oily in the afternoon now. I use in conjunction with the Gentle Acne Treatment Gel, and the Skin Perfecting Lotion. A sample of Murad's amazing Skin Perfecting lotion was what turned me onto the brand. Murad is a bit pricey, but a little goes a long way. I use morning and evening, at night removing my makeup with another cleanser followed by this cleanser for one full minute - to ensure acne causing bacteria is killed. The cleanser is actually cooling so it feels really good to wash your face with it - and it feels balanced - not stripped - when I'm done. I follow with the gel then the lotion or one or the other depending on how my skin feels.

Pros: Balances Skin, Clarifies Skin, Deep Cleans, Gentle, Leaves Clean Feel, Removes Make Up

Best Uses: Acne Prone Skin, Daily Use, Oily Skin

Describe Yourself: Brand Buyer

Bottom Line: recommended

My dermatologist's spa recommended this cleanser. I really like it. It is a basic cleanser that is a great cleaner but doesn't irritate my skin. I have serious cystic acne and find that this is really a great, effective choice. I would recommend anyone with acne to give this one a try.
