Murad Post-Acne Spot Lightening Gel Description

Murad Post-Acne Spot Lightening Gel is marketed as a powerful skin lightening treatment gel, which features hydroquinone, an ingredient that rapidly reduces post-acne skin discoloration.

Murad Post-Acne Spot Lightening Gel Overview

Murad Post-Acne Spot Lightening Gel is meant to combat discoloration and dark spots that linger after breakouts have dried up and begun to heal. Hydroquinone diminishes the look of post-acne spots as willow bark and tea tree leaf extract help to treat existing blemishes and reduce irritation. This product also restores clarity and tone of the skin.

This product is scientifically proven, dermatologist developed, and never tested on animals. It is recommended that you use a strong topical sunscreen in addition to this product for maximum results.

For best results, apply Murad Post-Acne Spot Lightening Gel over any problem areas on your clean face, neck, and chest every evening. Avoid contact with eyes. Murad also recommends following up with their step three moisturizer for best results.

Murad Post-Acne Spot Lightening Gel retails for $65.00 per 1.0 oz. of product on Murad’s own website and several well known beauty retailer websites.

Recommending To Purchase?

Murad Post-Acne Spot Lightening Gel is meant to address the look of dark spots and discoloration left over by stubborn acne. Although this product was created by a well known skin care company, there are some concerns that we have regarding this product that we’d like to share. First of all, this product is prohibitively expensive for anyone on a budget. Additionally, this product contains enough alcohol that it may be irritating for any skin type. Customers claim this product actually left their skin feeling more discolored and red due to the irritation they felt after applying this product. Other customer reviews indicate this product did nothing to improve the look of their skin, even with consistent use. We would recommend continuing your search for a lightening product that contains helpful ingredients, such as hydroquinone, without the unnecessarily high amount of irritating alcohol.
