Not for me :(

I have been using acids to exfoliate for years now and this product did not blow me away. It does it’s job, nothing I haven’t felt before with other cheaper products. What throws me off is the oily finish it leaves o. My skin, it’s really

This works!!!

I have been using the Resurgence line almost as long as it has been available. I started using this particular product about 8(?) years ago. I have sensitive skin, but slowly increased how often I would use this. I may get a little tingle in the beginning if I didn't use it for a few weeks, but it goes away. This almost instantly makes my skin smoother, softer, clearer, brighter, plumper, leas/no visible pores. The smell is because there are active ingredients & no fragrance, which you don't want in your skincare if avoidable (there are a number of amazing skincare brands/products with unpleasant scents, but they are effective). The smell discipates after you apply. Get it!!!

Best Exfoliant- smaller pores

I'm a licensed esthetician and this product is beyond amazing. I have dry sensitive skin and this does not irritate me at all (if you have irritation you are having an allergic reaction to an ingredient in it). I have used this for 4 night in a row and holy cow, no joke, I can't even see the pores on my nose anymore and my skin is soooo smooth and bright. It is a bit pricey but it's totally worth it, a little goes a long way and it's a pretty big bottle, it should last a long time. And I did not notice a weird smell with mine like other people in the reviews- just a reminder that it's better to not have fragrance in skincare products and you use this at night time only.

I had a very good experience with Lorena from customer support. I was querying the cost of Youngblood mineral makeup on live chat (excellent product by the way) of which I had bought 2. The cost of the item displayed for sale appeared less than the final checkout price. It turned out the sale price was for a particular color but this was unclear on the page. Lorena looked into the discrepancy immediately and after explaining the reason, offed to give me a refund on that particular sale to compensate for the confusion. She was polite and considerate throughout. It’s good to know that such a fabulous Aussie company has such lovely staff!

Best chemical exfoliant out there

I'm 42 and my daughter is 16 and both of us use this on our skin to clear acne. She's actually the one that taught me how! She has hormonal cystic acne and I have just regular old hormonal acne as a middle aged adult. We have found that it works best to shake it well, then put a few drops on your fingers and spread it over your face. I have also use this to treat blackheads and clogged pores on my neck and shoulders. Either it's very gentle or she and I have very resilient skin because we are both able to use it every day with no negative side effects at all. We are on our third bottle. Using two or three drops a day really makes it last for an incredibly long time! I'm talking 9 to 12 months at a minimum. Highly recommend and five stars all the way!

My holy grail

I almost never write reviews, but I need to share how much I love this product. I received a sample of this, and after using the sample for about 2 weeks I saw an immediate improvement in my skin (this never happens for me). I was a little put off by the price - but let me tell you, a little goes a long way. One bottle lasts me about 9 months. And I will continue to buy this until they no longer make this product! I am in my 40s - so I have the typical complaints of fine lines, dullness, hyperpigmentation, and the hormonal acne flare up. This product has virtually eliminated my acne flare ups. My skin is now so smooth! Granted I'll never have the skin I had when I was in my 20s, but this is a close second- my fine lines have greatly diminished, the hyperpigmentations have faded, and my skin glows. I absolutely love this stuff. An added bonus is that it has also eliminated my flaky dry skin around the nose I tend to get in the winter months. Been using it for over two years now - zero issues or complaints. If you have the usual age related skin issues, I highly recommend giving this a try. Worth every penny.

big no. skin worse in ways I’ve never seen.

I consulted with Murad several times about this before and after purchasing and although their responses are always very generic and vague, I thought the products would be great for me. I have acne prone, prematurely aging skin at 33 and at first I thought I loved this peel and quickly became a huge Murad fan. I was so wrong. The AHA/BHA exfoliating Cleanser is also terrible for my skin. The one product that I may use up is the retinol youth renewal serum, but I’m very hesitant. I’ve always had good skin but things started changing quickly for me in my life and my skin shows it. I’m a skincare consultant for another brand and I’ve been doing a lot of research about skincare ingredients and other factors such as diet and water quality. These things do matter, especially with Murad. I live in NY but not the city and I believe that maybe I have hard water, making these products the opposite of what my skin needs. Anyway, I spoke with a skincare professional (not my brand) today and she confirmed that the third ingredient in this long list is just no good. It seals your skin like plastic wrap and doesn’t allow for toxins to be released. It clogs pores, causes acne, premature aging, and other skin conditions. It seemed great the first few times but it truly is the worst product I’ve ever put on my face and it’s obvious through trial and error that this was 100% the culprit. My skin could not my breathe or sweat through even a tiny amount of this. It was just shiny and gave me blackheads, pimples, and uneven texture (& tone) that goes well beyond large pores. Sometimes I’d even get almost bubbling but unlike anything I could explain. I’m so glad I found out for sure that this is definitely, only making my skin worse. I’m returning it to Murad tomorrow. Look up that third ingredient and trust me, if you’re at a all concerned about your pores and/or acne, and overall skin health, skip this or at least consult with an unbiased professional.

Best face peel but too high a price :(

This is the gold star facial peel. It contains LITERALLY EVERY ingredient meant to benefit skin!!!! There are no unnecessary ingredients in this. For example, I was using the Farmacy Glow Honeymoon and it seemed to be working at clearing up my skin and brightening my face but even after the purging process one month in, I was still getting small bumps on my face and tiny white heads occasionally. I realized it was due to the lemon, orange, basil and citral it contained, which are fragrance ingredients. Natural and synthetic fragrance causes skin irritation which then leads to acne. So, even though it was getting rid of my acne and brightening my face, it also couldn’t help but to cause some acne and uneven skin texture. The Drunk Elephant is the only other peel that I have tried and that is 2nd best to this product. This does everything I need it to. It brightens, gets rid of acne and blackheads. It fades dark spots and acne scars. It also HYDRATES my skin which baffles me. It does sting a bit when first applied but after a minute or two it fades and it does not sting like the Farmacy one does and that is because Farmacy contains lemon which should never-ever be applied to skin. The only reason I took 1 star away from this review is the high price. I was thankful to receive this in a deluxe sample size with enough to last me a month.

HELPS WITH TEXTURED SKIN

I first received a sample of this product a while ago and remember really enjoying the use I got out of it. Fast forward to a few months ago, I decided to splurge and buy the full bottle. This peel IS NOT CHEAP. But to be fair, I bought this in mid-March and its now mid-May and I still have a decent amount of product left.

Once again back at it with the Sephora samples lol this time around I found a winner. The star of the show is the . I decided to finally try it out today after holding on to it for so long and holy moly is this a good product. It comes out as a semi thick liquid almost like an essence. I put the contents on to a cotton pad and applied it all over my face. I was a little nervous at first because I did feel a bit of a tingle but that quickly subsided. As I was looking in the mirror I was surprised at how beautiful my skin looked I mean it was glowing. Now I know that a lot of products can provide a glow over time but the surprise came from the fact that this was literally my very first time using this and it immediately gave results that I am most certainly down for. I’m super stoked to see what my skin will look like after using this over a period of time and I am looking forward to it. I’m already in the process of purchasing the full size lol. It can be hard finding products that truly deliver but when you do find those particular items I don’t even think twice about adding it to my skincare regimen. This product is hands down worth trying it is spectacular.
