Murad Clarifying Cleanser Purifying Cleansing Gel 148ml

Murad Clarifying Cleanser is a purifying gel cleanser formulated for oily, combination, and acne-prone skin. It effectively removes impurities, excess oil, and makeup residue, leaving the skin clean, fresh, and visibly clearer without drying or irritating it. Part of Murad's Clarifying line, it is the first step in a complete anti-blemish routine.

Who it's for

Ideal for oily, combination, or acne-prone skin with enlarged pores, blackheads, and frequent blemishes. Also suitable for those seeking a daily purifying cleanser that controls oil without compromising skin hydration. It can be used both morning and evening as a cleansing step.

Key benefits

Deep anti-sebum purification

The gel formula penetrates pores to remove excess oil and accumulated impurities throughout the day, reducing the appearance of blackheads and comedones with regular use.

Targeted dermopurifying action

Purifying active ingredients act directly on problem areas, reducing redness and imperfections without irritating more balanced areas of the face.

Refreshing gel texture

The gel consistency transforms into a light foam upon contact with water, ensuring effective cleansing with an immediate and pleasant feeling of freshness.

Visibly reduced pores

With constant use, pores appear finer and the skin surface more even and matte, an effect particularly appreciated by oily skin types.

Non-comedogenic and non-irritating

Despite its intense purifying action, the formula is designed not to clog pores and not to cause dryness or irritation, making it suitable even for sensitive, acne-prone skin.

Active ingredients

The formula combines salicylic acid (BHA) for deep pore cleansing and blemish prevention, purifying botanical extracts with natural antibacterial action, and gentle cleansing agents that respect the hydrolipidic film. All in a light gel base that leaves no residue and does not alter the skin's pH.

How to use

Apply morning and evening to damp face, massage in gentle circular motions for 30-60 seconds, focusing on oilier areas (forehead, nose, chin). Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water. Follow with toner, serum, and a light moisturizer. For very oily skin, it can also be used as a mask by leaving it on for 2-3 minutes before rinsing.

Recommended pairings

For a complete anti-blemish routine, pair this gel with Murad Hydrating Toner to rebalance pH after cleansing. Complete your morning routine with Perfecting Day Cream SPF30 to protect purified skin. In the evening, Revitalixir Recovery Serum supports overnight renewal. For light, non-comedogenic hydration, pair with Hydro-Dynamic Ultimate Moisture.

FAQ

Is Murad Clarifying Cleanser suitable for dry skin?

It is primarily formulated for oily and combination skin. Dry skin might find it too purifying: in that case, Renewing Cleansing Cream is a more suitable alternative.

Can I use it twice a day?

Yes, it is formulated for daily use morning and evening. If your skin tends to be dry, start with one application per day and assess tolerance.

Does it help with blackheads?

Yes, salicylic acid penetrates pores and dissolves the sebum that forms comedones. With regular use, blackheads are visibly reduced in 4-6 weeks.

Can I use it if I have acne-prone skin with active lesions?

Yes, but gently: avoid vigorously massaging areas with inflamed pimples. In cases of severe acne, consult a dermatologist before starting any purifying routine.
