I have used many of Murad's products with excellent results. This toner is one of my favorites. I use it every morning and evening as part of my face cleansing routine. It works well to keep pores clean, and clarify your face. It always leaves my face feeling very clean. I follow with the Murad T-Zone serum and then the oil control moisturizer. I have never experienced any dryness or irritation. I ran out of this product one time and did not replace it for a few days. I could immediately tell the difference and will not run out again. I always make sure to buy more when I am getting near the bottom of the bottle. This product has really helped keep my skin clear and acne free. I would highly recommend. Effectiveness Works great to clarify, cleanse and control acne. My face always feels very clean without any irritation. Ease of Application I use this on a cotton round and apply to my whole face. A little really does go a long way with this product. Immediacy My face immediately feels clean and my pores are noticeably smaller.

Murad's Clarifying Toner is a wonderful product. I use it on a daily basis. The first thing I noticed after using this toner for the first time is that it is very soothing. I have noticed that most toners have a little sting to them, but not this clarifying toner. This toner felt very soothing as it was applied. It felt very cool and fresh on my skin. I have combination skin and it often has a shiny appearance and I have to use oil blotting cloths. After a couple of days of use, I noticed that my skin was not as shiny or oily. I was using the oil blotting cloths less and less. After two weeks of use, I noticed that my pores were not clogged and my skin was clear and healthy looking. This toner really helped to prevent adult acne. My skin actually has a healthy glow. I use this product along with other Murad products and I am very pleased with the improvement in my skin tone, appearance, and level of moisture. Effectiveness This toner is extremely effective at controlling oil and shine while preventing acne. Ease of Application This toner is very easy to apply. I apply it to a cotton ball and swipe it across my face. Side Effects I did not experience any side effects while using this toner. Immediacy This toner worked very fast to control shine and oil while preventing acne.

I initially got this on a try it Murad kit for acne, I was not familiar with the brand so I wanted to try a couple of sample size products before buying a regular size product. I was very pleased with the results, I have struggled with acne for years and have a couple of acne scars and dark spots around my face. The toner has made my scars and spots be less noticeable. Also, I have noticed that those scars can't be seen when I wear foundation, which did used to happen before even when wearing a full coverage kind. However, I will say that the smell can be a little strong when applied but it goes away once the product is dry. Effectiveness My skin looks more even and a couple of scars and dark spots I had around my forehead and chin have diminished significantly. Ease of Application This product is very easy to apply; I usually use a cotton ball or a face wipe and follow it with a moisturizer. Convenience Very good size for the price paid, a bottle lasts me approximately 3-4 months. I use it daily. Side Effects The only side effect I've had is better looking skin. I would recommend a moisturizer for people with dry skin since the skin is left a little dry after you apply this product.

I'm not sure if this is the right toner for everyone to use, but it works pretty well for me. You should find a brand that works for your skin type, and once you find a good brand, I think you should stick with it. Murad clarifying toner has worked very well for me so I have continued to use it, along with a variety of other Murad products because I believe it works well for my skin. I use it daily after washing my face and before I go to sleep and I believe that it cleanses my skin and prevents acne. I used to have a bad acne problem, but thankfully it has gone away. Murad products are quite expensive, but if it works for you I think it is worth it to prevent acne because acne damages your skin. If you feel that it stings when you use it you should stop using it in that area or try a different brand. Because murad has worked for me, I would recommend that others try it too. Perhaps going into a store that will allow you to sample it.

If you need salicylic acid for your skin, then this is a good product. If I use cleanser before then there is a tingling sensation but it goes away when I follow with clearing gel or moisturizer. I notice then when get off it my skin gets worth, but when I come back to cleanser-toner-gel routine it clears in couple days. This toner is my favorite from murad line. And I love the smell.

I have a very oily t-zone area, but dry cheeks. I was given this product last week by my dad's gf, and I LOVE it. I use it in conjuction with the Murad Acne cleanser. After cleaning my face I soak a cotton pad with this and wipe it over the t-zone area ONLY (I made the mistake of using it around the corners or my nose - burned terribly!). It stings at first, probably for 15 seconds. After that, I can feel my skin cooling almost as if I applied ice to it. it leaves my face feeling toned and refreshed. The only thing I fear is having to pay for the next bottle, because I know it's a bit pricey. If it continues to aid in clearing my skin, I will be happy to buy it. I think a good quality item is worth paying for, instead of going cheap and buying something that will not help my skin. I skipped a day of using this because my skin had dried out so much, but it is better now. I also use a topical cream morning and night that I was prescribed, and this toner does not seem to bother it. Oh, I do *not* use the toner at night.
