Description
This powerful, daily gel cleanser combats acne and skin breakouts. The medicated formula washes away pore-clogging grime, oil and irritants as it helps treat and prevent acne breakouts. Our face cleanser for acne has a special recipe with time-released medication that remains active for hours, even after rinsing.
The Murad Clarifying Cleanser is suggested for people looking to:
- Help reduce blemishes and breakouts
- Help reduce back acne
- Help prevent future breakouts
Benefits: This Murad gel cleanser for acne combats blemishes and skin breakouts. Encapsulated Salicylic Acid continually releases acne treatment for hours, even after rinsing. Green Tea Extract acts as a powerful antioxidant, promoting healthier-looking skin.
How to Use: Massage a small amount of the acne face wash over dampened face and neck. Rinse with warm water and pat dry.
Ingredients: Green Tea - Current thinking is that the antioxidant polyphenols present in Green Tea act as free-radical scavengers that protect cells against environmental damage and help prevent premature aging. Another class of compounds, xanthines, has been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties which may help reduce the severity of a wide range of diseases and conditions.

This cleanser really helped with my acne issues. Since I started wearing a mask my skin took a turn for the worse and I started to get cystic acne. This cleanser helped dry out my acne patches and a little goes a long way! The results in the photo are from use of the cleanser, the treatment and the scarring treatment for three weeks!

I don't use acne wash all the time, just when I feel a breakout coming on. Otherwise, it's too much for my skin, and it actually exacerbates my breakouts. I got this in a beauty bag and had run out of my usual acne wash when I felt my skin breaking out, so I decided to use it.
It has salicylic acid in it, which I find is less effective for my breakouts than benzoyl peroxide. I didn't find it to be super drying (unlike a lot of acne washes), which is good, but I also didn't find it to be super effective, which is bad. And while it's not as drying as other washes I've tried, it's still drying. It has a much more pleasant scent than a lot of acne washes, though, light and citrusy. It doesn't really help blackheads, either, I've found. So basically, it smells good and doesn't do much else for me besides maybe dry out my skin a little. I usually give products like that 3 stars (2 and below is for if they are extravagantly expensive and/or actually harm me). So overall, it was harmless, but a waste of time. My breakout resolved, but not any faster than it would have on its own.

This is a clarifying cleanser from Murad, it retails for $26.00. It is an extra-strength acne solution that treats existing pimples and works to prevent new ones from forming. This acne cleansers, like many can be drying with daily use. I would never use this more than once a day.
This is loaded with irritating ingredients, the oils have antibacterial properties but can be irritating. The salicylic acid, which works to loosen and pull away excess sebum. Another active ingredient in this cleanser is triclosan, which works to destroy the bacteria that allow pimples to form. It also has irritating menthol.
This works for me, I would be cautious if you are sensitive. The gel comes in a large bottle and it takes me almost 4 months to use it all.

It did a great job at cleansing the face. It does what it says it does. But my skin is sensitive, so when something is meant for deep cleanings it can irritate my skin a little which this did. After moisturizing and a serum it’s fine but be wary for sensitive skin user.

This product is absolutely amazing. It only takes about two days to clear up mild acne on your face. While also using the rapid relief acne spot treatment by Murad. It’s an absolutely amazing product. It leaves your skin feeling revitalized. It gives a cooling sensation after you wash your face with it. I absolutely love it. The rapid relief acne spot treatment by Murad only takes up to four hours to help reduce blemish size and redness. I Prefer to use them both for more rapid response to my face acne.

I love this cleanser! I’ve never had a lot of acne in general, just the occasional breakout on my chin or sometimes the side of my nose. But back in September 2020, I was desperate to find something to help with my constant (constant!) chin breakouts which I blame on mask-wearing. I’ve been using this for almost 6 months now and I plan to keep using it. It makes my face feel so clean, but not dried out (I have pretty dry skin, especially in the winter.) I haven’t had a single pimple on my chin in weeks!

This is one of my "must-have" products. I use it every few days especially when I notice my skin acting up from hormonal breakouts. I've used similar cleansers but this is the absolute best for my combination skin. I just have to make sure that a good moisturizer is used because it can be drying. Hope this helps!

Been looking for a good face wash for oily summer skin Murad Clarifying Cleanser ?
Recommendations highly appreciated!!!
Amanda S. • il y a 2 mois
I love this and I have very oily skin in the hotter, more humid spring and summer months, with combo skin the rest of the time. I use this all year long. It’s one of my favs. I actually just finished it and trying the Murad essential c cleanser. It’s okay.

Do you use the same skincare routine or mix it up every few months? I’ve used Murad Clarifying Cleanser as my cleanser for years ♥️
Amanda B. • il y a 2 mois
I mix it up slightly. I will switch between the Murad Clarifying Cleanser and a Murad Hydrating Cleanser. Some days I feel like I need a little more moisture added to my regimen. Otherwise, every step remains the same.
