Murad’s new Acne Starter Kit $30 is a total homerun for breakouts and redness. It’s a grown-up solution for troubled skin, so it clears it up quickly without drying or peeling. It’s so gentle and makes skin feel great. Since I haven’t been getting facials like I used to, my skin is up and down so I’ve been using the Acne Clearing Solution which helps with shine and reduces inflammation. I love the way it makes my skin feel and when I use the Mattifier SPF 15 over it, my skin is totally primed so foundation smooths right over it. A mattifing SPF is key for the summer months so you don’t turn into an oil slick in the sun.
I used Proactiv years ago and hated it. It dried my skin out and left it flakey and red without clearing anything up. It was too harsh and not effective. This kit is the opposite. Try it first if your skin has been giving you a hard time.
