"This vitamin C cleanser is so good to my skin, it penetrates into my skin and washes off dirt, leaving it clean and glowing, without stripping off the natural oil. It reduced my acne even though it is not for acne. I love how bright and smooth my skin feels everytime I use the cleanser."
"I have been using this product for almost 20 years. I love the glow and cleanliness this product gives to my skin."
"Love this product - use it every day !"
"Vitamin C face cleaner is very refreshing and maintains healthy skin. Love the product."
"I love this cleanser . It helps me to improve the skin"
"I absolutely love this face wash. I have very sensitive skin and I'm allergic to anything with coconut in it. This is one of the only face washes that I can use that will not give me an allergic reaction and will genuinely keep my skin clear of acne. When I ran out of this face wash I decided to use something different and it completely broke my face out. As soon as I got my Murad Essential C Cleanser back, my face cleared up in 2 days. I wish more cosmetic products didn't have coconut in them (in any form) that way I could try out more products! I always buy the travel size because it fits my budget better but it will last me a few months! It only takes a pea size amount! It leaves my face feeling refreshed and bright!"
"This cleanser is a must for having radiant skin. I use to be sensitive to skin care but not with Murad. Dark spots have faded and no makeup needed. I use all the products from the Vitamin C line."
"I have used this for quite some time. I just love it. I do use the scrub twice a month, but this is a wonderful daily face wash. My dark spots have noticeably lightened. I do use the dark spot cream with the wash. I have had great results."
"The Murad C cleanser is light, refreshing and does the job of removing make-up and is sensitive to eyes."
