Best product EVER!!!
I'm in my early 30's. This is the best product I have ever used, and I have tried so many products. I have brown spots on my face from my pregnancy, and this product really did fade them, and even out my complexion. I saw a difference in one week of using it. I read the comments of the women who gav...

Drying, nothing special
I am mid 20s fair combination skin. I used this product during my morning shower as my main facial cleanser. I found that it dried out my skin to the point of giving it a tight, flaky appearance. Also, I use an eye makeup remover beforehand but a little mascara is always left. This Murad facewash do...

I have been using this product for years, it is worth ever penny I own. At one point in my life, earlier this year, I decided to stop woth my regular cleaning program and deeply regret it. I had horrible cyctic acne and acne scars just below my cheekbones; I used that cleanser, The Ordinary niacinamid, hyloronic acid, and salicylic acid (in that order of application) with the CEO vitamin c hydration cream after and they're gone after two months. I get the occasional hormonal breakouts but it kills them like a champ. Every other or three days I wash my face. Best combo in the world hands down.

This is the type of cleanser that helps my skin look great without any makeup! Confidence booster!

I have been using the travel size once, sometimes twice, a day, and now that I've used up the tube, here is my review. THE GOOD: The smell is divine, like the bright morning sunshine. I seriously look forward to it. My skin feels great after washing, never tight or dry. THE BAD: It doesn't remove makeup very well. I don't wear a ton, I use makeup remover around my eyes beforehand, but when using a toner after washing there is still a lot of makeup that is left on the cotton ball. So, I would recommend a double cleanse when removing makeup for the day. I also did not see any difference in the advertised brightening effect. But, as I mentioned, I only have used the travel size, so if it takes more than that amount to see brightening, you'll have to get the bigger size. I know Vitamin C takes a while to lighten dark spots, so I just can't say if this cleanser works for that or not. THE UGLY: The price for what you get. I bought this during a B1G1 mini size sale to try it out. Based on what I've experienced, I would never pay full price for this product. I would definitely use it again as a morning cleanser if the price was right, but I think there are cheaper options out there that are just as good.
USED THIS FOR YEARS.
this is the best cleaner i have ever used. i have been using this for 4+ years, and switched back and forth between this and elta md foaming face wash until i settled on this one. i have a lot of scaring and this brightens them HELLA. my eyebrows are tatted and so are my lips, i was wondering why it was fading so fast. ITS THE FACE WASH. IT WORKS. the best ever.
Great product!!
