- Q
Can this be used for back acne?
- Asked by Monymony
- Official Answer By Murad - Sampling + BEYes, it most certainly can as it contains salicylic, glycolic, lactic acids and jojoba beads. Keep in mind that we do have the Acne Body Wash. Patented, award winning triple action formula cleanses, exfoliates and treats the skin clearing the breakouts you have and preventing those you don’t. Salicylic acid and date seed powder deep cleans and treat pores and humectants help lock in moisture. Skin is left smoother and more clear.Was this answer helpful to you
- Q
Can I use this for Milia everyday or should I alternate with another cleanser and if so which one? There are so many. Thank you!
- Asked by Suzzy
- Official Answer By Murad - Sampling + BEYou want to use the AHA BHA Exfoliating Cleanser 2 or 3 times per week and the rest of the time use a cleanser formulated for daily use. You may also want to consider a treatment such as the Replenishing Multi Acid Peel as it gently exfoliates the skin and can be used daily.Was this answer helpful to you
- Q
Can this help with PK/chicken skin?
- Asked by Addi
- Official Answer By Murad - Sampling + BEAre you referring to Keratosis pilaris? If you are, yes, it most definitely can help. You can use it 2 or 3 times per week on the affected areas. Additionally the Retinal Resculpt Body Firming Treatment would be a great product to use daily because retinal works by promoting cell turnover and preventing plugged hair follicles.Was this answer helpful to you

FINALLY!
FINALLY! That is what I have to say! I have been for years (since I was 13)trying to find a face wash that is just right for my skin type. (VERY oily, dries out easily, large pores, weird small acne bumps, redness) I would go from product to product to product and I would never find one that rea...

Harsh(not for everyone)
I have normal/combination skin. My only problem area is really my nose(pores and blackheads) and my chin(occasional whiteheads and blackheads) a tiny bit.

Love This Cleanser!
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This is the best cleanser I have used in a long time! I have noticed a difference in the look of my skin! My skins seems to keep its moisture, unlike before. It makes a pleasant lather, with a pleasant scent. I will continue to purchase!
A solid choice!
This Murad AHA/BHA exfoliating cleanser is overall a solid, medical grade cleanser for smoother skin. It unclogs pores, reduces skin congestion and polishes skin

Nice!
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This was something I probably wouldn't have picked up on my own but it was a pleasant surprise. It's a nice creamy exfoliating cleanser that is gentle and leaves my skin feeling soft. It also has a very neutral scent which I like in my skincare. I'd recommend it for anyone looking for a gentle exfoliant- but it is a bit pricey.


Smooth skin
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] The Murad Cleanser has a gentle gritty texture that leaves your skin feeling smooth without it being too harsh. My skin looks brighter and pores less congested and smaller. It leaves my skin feeling soft, glowing, and fresh. Feels like you are getting a facial at home!
