Murad AHA/BHA Exfoliating Cleanser Review

Murad is famous for fighting acne, but the company offers skincare lines that address aging and overall skin health as well.  Dr. Murad holds several patents for his innovative work in the creation of effective skincare products.

A popular product in the Age Reform line is Murad AHA/BHA Exfoliating Cleanser.  It has accumulated quite a few fans, so we decided to see what all the fuss is about.

Murad AHA/BHA Exfoliating Cleanser ReviewHow Murad AHA/BHA Exfoliating Cleanser Works

The name Murad AHA/BHA Exfoliating Cleanser really says it all.  The Murad website states that this is a cleanser that takes exfoliation seriously.  It uses 3 hydroxy acids to give you smoother, younger, healthier skin. Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs Lactic and Glycolic Acid and Beta Hydroxy Acid (BHA) Salicylic Acid work together to chemically remove dead skin cells and reveal smoother, younger, more even toned and line-free skin.

Murad AHA/BHA Exfoliating Cleanser then adds tiny Jojoba beads to give an element of mechanical exfoliation as well.  Licorice extract calms inflammation, while Jojoba Seed Oil restores hydration.  Though the product is part of an anti-aging lineup, it can help acne prone skin as well, by removing the dead skin cells that may be clogging pores and causing breakouts.

Designed to be used 2 or 3 times a week, you should massage a small amount of Murad AHA/BHA Exfoliating Cleanser into damp skin, then rinse with warm water. When you pat it dry, you’ll see your dry, dull, uneven skin texture has been replaced with a smooth, polished, healthy glow.
