Overview

Not a leave-on serum, this is a face wash in a bottle built around vitamin C, antioxidants and panthenol. Murad gives the scent as citrus and the form as a liquid for adult dry skin.

A small bottle is an easy way to try vitamin C in a wash step. The limit is the size, which runs out quickly with daily use, and the scent, which some skin may not like.

Who it's for

Adults with dry skin who like a brightening cleanse and a citrus smell will find the format practical to carry or test. People who want a daily workhorse bottle should look at a larger size.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Vitamin C and antioxidants
  • Panthenol for conditioning
Cons
  • Directions not listed

Performance notes

A cleanser has only seconds on the skin before rinsing, so vitamin C does little more than add a mild brightening effect to the wash. The real job is lifting pollution and oil without stripping dry skin.
