Q&A

Can this be used with AHA/BHA exfoliating cleanser?
Yes but keep in mind the AHA BHA Exfoliating Cleanser is to be used 2 to 3 times per week.
I’ve been using this product for a couple months, 3 times a week. I got it to help with hormonal acne but I’ve been experiencing whiteheads emerge within hours after using it. Is this part of purging the pores? Does it get better? Or is this abnormal?
We would need to understand your complete regimen in order to make a recommendation. Please email customerservice@murad.sbs so that we can assist you.
Can I use this with the Resurgence line?
Yes. You are able to use it as your treatment step. So if you use the Daily Clarifying Peel you would not use the Retinol Youth Renewal Serum, Replenishing Multi Acid Peel or the Retinal Resculpt Overnight Treatment at the same time. You can use one in the morning and one in the evening.
Could this be used as a toner? So use it after the clarifying cleanser then moisturizer?
Yes, you have it right! The AHA BHA Daily Clarifying Peel is a treatment so you would cleanse, treat and then hydrate.
Is this daily routine okay?… AM: Daily Clarifying Peel Vita-C Glycolic Serum Essential C Toner PM: Replenishing Multi-Acid Peel
That is a great routine! Just be sure to follow with a moisturizer.
