The AHA/BHA Cleanser will obliterate those bumps without causing micro-tears to your skin. Use it every other day in the AM for smooth, polished skin.

I am African American. What is the best way to clear up dark (almost black) hyperpigmentation? I am currently using a toner with 10% glycolic acid and a serum that has 20% vitamin C. They don't seem to be working.

Hi Dr. Murad, I am wondering what I can do to get my syctic acne to goaway? I am seeing a dermatologist, but I am wondering what else I can do to get rid of it. I also have combination skin.

[Gabby0402]

I use a moisturizer but under my nose seems to continue to peel, is there anything that will help, I have combination skin

[DrMurad]

@Gabby0402 I recommend using our Nutrient-Charged Water Gel to keep skin hydrated all over!

Dr. Murad!!!! Your products are amazing!!!!!!! I live in the cold dry climate, what kind of ingredients should I be looking for in products with my dry skin and this cold weather? Thanks dr!!!!!!!

Hello, thank you for your time. I have literally spent thousands and thousands of dollars on every product I can think of, including professional services, and cannot find a permanent solution for clearing black-and-white heads under my bottom lip and on my chin. Any suggestions? thx so muc

Have you tried the Pomegranate Pore Extractor Mask? It's uses Kaolin and Bentonite clays to draw out impurities and lactic acid beads to dissolve any Pore clogging debris. Kind of like a vacuum and broom combo...

Hi Dr Murad which of your products is best for combination skin and mild acne

[DrMurad]

@Chynna517 We recommend our Anti-Aging Acne Collection. The Time-Release Cleanser and Anti-Aging Moisturizer!

Good afternoon Dr. Murad:) I am 25 and I have fine lines or wrinkles under my eyes and discoloration in some parts of my face. Please, any suggestions to help me fix that. I have oily skin, my skincare routine consists of removing excess dirt or makeup with micellar water on a cotton pad, washing my face with different facial washes, rose water toner and right noe I'm using a mattifying moisturizer for dark spots by Ponds. Thank you, have a nice day!

I sometimes get acne on my thighs and underarms; is there something to recommend to reduce that?

[TamraCH]

The Acne Body Wash and Clarifying Body Spray have super loyal fans because they work so well-and fast!

[acmx3]

I was wondering if there was anything to help reduce hardened acne spots that become stubborn to remove. I have sensitive skin, but any suggestions or recommendations would be great!

Hello Dr. Murad,

Thanks for making the time to answer our burning skin care questions. I recently purchased your Rapid Spot and Pigment Lightening Serum and was wondering how to best incorporate into my current routine. 

Presently I remove my makeup with coconut oil, then follow up with an enzyme wash or exfoliating wash, toner, hyaluronic acid serum and a moisturizer. I use an at-home peel once a week and occasionally I alternate between a drug store retinol product and Retin-A Micro 3-4x a week (or when I remember). How do I fit the hydroquinone product in all of this? Thanks!

Hello Dr. Murad,

I have tried your serum for aging and dark spots and it did not work on my skin. I am concerned with removal of dark spots around the outside of my cheeks. Do yo have any other product you can recommend?

Thank you.

Hello Dr. Murad, I'm 32 and have severe dry skin, not eczema related. I've noticed this year a dramatic increase in dryness. I feel my skin is aging a lot faster than my peers. I use your youth serum and it has absolutely helped with the fine lines and wrinkles around my mouth and forehead. Now, I need to address the dryness. How can I slow down the aging of my skin due to lack of moisture? I drink half my body weight in water per oz and I still suffer. Are there any vitamins my body is lacking and which products can you recommend for me? Thank you, Tegan

Hi Dr. Murad! I am about to turn 29 and have normal to combo skin. When it's cold out, or occasionally if I get the chills, my face gets goosebumps. Otherwise my skin is very smooth. Is this normal? Are there any solutions? I have recently started using the AHA/BHA exfoliating cleanser. Thank you!
