It kind of works
I've been using the acne time release cleanser since March 2018. I had horrible cystic acne at age 30 that came out of nowhere. I was told by a murad rep that this product saved her skin. It took well over a year of using it before I started noticing my skin get any better and I don't even know if t...

Just an average face wash
My skin did not get any clearer while using this. It has decent ingredients. But, it just didn't help. I even had a few more pimples appear while using it. It did not improve healing time. For the price, I expect at least some improvement. Inkey 10% benzoyl peroxide wash and azalaic acid were what e...

Helps sensitive skin
It doesn't lather much, but I have extremely dry skin to the point where I have to use eczema lotions to control it, and with this face wash I notice my skin always feels moisturized after using and doesn't irritate my skin.
holy grail for sensitive, dry, blemish-prone skin
I have incredibly sensitive skin. Like if I touch it it turns red. I have a lot of clogged pores, hormonal breakouts and small whiteheads so I need some salicylic acid, but at 38 my skin is starting to dry out and I just can't handle normal acne products designed for younger skin. This cleanser is soothing, clarifying, and non-drying. I've seen a noticeable improvement in texture and reduced breakouts.
Love this!

Has improved my skin!
Highly recommend
I wash my face with this every morning and night. It keeps my skin blemish-free without drying. This is the best product.
MY HOLY GRAIL!!
I have never had acne at all until covid hit. Then I was stuck wearing a mask for 8hr/5 days a week and my skin broke out completely. It was so bad that I cried about how my face was just an acne mess. I started trying all different acne face washes, the body shop, proactiv, dermalogica, and nothing would work until I was recommended to try this on my face since my face was sort of a cystic acne break out with scare . I cannot be more HAPPY to have FINALLY found a product that works on my acne. This is my holy grail along with the scar cream for Murad and the moisturizer from Murad twice a day. I have been using this line for about 6-7 months and I completely see a difference. It has cleared up the patches of acne, the redness that it gave me. I'm satisfied!! Stay CONSTANT!!
