Moving down the list of Dr. Murad’s acne products, the natural next step is looking at the toner. The Murad website sells the Clarifying Toner for daily use to restore the natural PH balance to your skin and to remove dirt and oil.

Toners can be difficult to use for those with sensitive skin because they can often cause skin to be dry or irritated. In addition, many toners have fragrances which are not helpful for irritated skin. The Murad toner is said to be light, fragrance free, and helpful in reducing irritation.

Notable Ingredients

Witch Hazel—this natural astringent is commonly used on skin for cleansing. You can buy it at your local drug store for a very reasonable price. Many toning products are almost entirely made of this ancient wonder.

Algae Extract—I though algae was the stuff you don’t want to clog a pool or spa. Now you need to use it on your face?

Cucumber—This wonder fruit, yes it is a fruit, is used in a variety of skin care products. It soothes irritated skin and is said to rejuvenate.

Lemon Extract—Lemon is a detoxifier and is full of the antioxidant Vitamin C.

Grape Seed Extract—Grape seed extract is everywhere in the herbal world. It is full of antioxidants which help the immune system.

Allantoin—This ingredient is commonly used in different skin care systems. The Murad site says it reduces redness and irritation.

How to Use

After you cleanse your face, put a small amount of toner on a cotton ball and smooth over your skin.

Cost

While it is true that toners can last for months, this one is a bit expensive at $22 for six ounces. Okay, I realize that skin care products can be expensive, but I prefer to help people save money as much as possible. If you buy everything in the Murad line, you will be spending plenty.

Conclusion

Murad Clarifying Toner has many ingredients which are common to toners of all product lines. I am sure they are quality ingredients and that this is a quality product. You can either purchase it online or you can find a salon near you.

My main concern with this product is the fact that Murad uses infomercials so much. I am always skeptical of these types of marketing campaigns, In my opinion, Murad products are overpriced and are comparable to other similar products on the market that are less expensive.
