- 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 a cleaner with all 3 acids! And then Murad put in 2 parabens. Question for use. How can we see the long term benefits of the AHA, BHA, and salicylic acids in youth renewal if the parabens killed us with lady cancer first? Why Murad.

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. I bought this product because I've been on a lengthy search to find something to help clean out my pores and serve as an exfoliant. It smells ...

Trust this brand, can't wait to use it!
I received this product for free in exchange for my honest review. I am already a huge fan of this brand because I use their Vitamin C cleanser and it is ideal for my skin. Currently I am starting a new retinol journey so I am being careful not to mix too many actives at once to avoid irritation. Because of that I haven't used this cleanser on my face yet but I did a patch test on my hand. The results were instant as my skin felt absolutely amazing smooth and polished. I am looking forward to fully incorporating this exfoliating cleanser into my routine once my skin adjusts to the retinol.
Leaves my skin looking radiant and youthful
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I'm obsessed with this Murad AHA/BHA Exfoliating Cleanser. I've been using this cleanser three times a week for the past few weeks, and I love the results I'm seeing. It is very gentle on my skin. It doesn't cause any irritations at all. This cleanser gently exfoliates and cleanses my skin, leaving my skin texture feeling soft, smooth, and polished. It also leaves my complexion looking brighter and radiant with a more youthful glow. I highly recommend this product it's worth the investment.
A Light Scented Exfoliating Cleanser
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] The product has a fairly light scent but it does have a good smell. I could definitely tells that it was exfoliating. The product had a slight grittiness to it. I like the product's packaging. It's simple. It has a non standard shade of purple and it looks clinical. In terms of its effectiveness, I think it does a decent job at cleaning my face. I also like that it doesn't have a chemical smell. In terms of its hydrating effectiveness I haven't noticed my skin getting dryer.
Hydrating
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Such a great cleanser that is a great size and also great for everyday use. The cleanser doesn't have a smell which is great for sensitive skin. After washing it off it felt very hydrating on my skin and very compatible to other skincare.
Skin Refreshing!
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This AHA/BHA cleanser is really effective at refreshing skin! It's great for removing dead skin for a more refreshed look. It's also great for a full skincare routine as it helps the other products you use sink into your skin better. It is a bit strong, so if you have sensitive skin, use this maybe once a week. But overall, I think the value is great for the large size you get.
