Your skin is home to millions of perfectly balanced, individual bacteria known as your microbiome. Your microbiome protects like a second layer of skin. Scientific research shows that bacteria can sense and “talk” to each other to form a group. And as a group, these bacteria can throw off skin’s balance, triggering the irritation associated with breakouts, including maskne. Clarifying Water Gel contains innovative technology that interrupts communication so bacteria can’t form a group and cause an imbalance. The result? Your microbiome stays balanced, and you see clearer, hydrated, and healthier-looking skin!
With Clarifying Water Gel! Murad’s non-comedogenic, water-light hydrator purifies, refines and interrupts bacteria signals that can lead to irritated skin. 92% noticed a clearer complexion after 4 weeks.

"Love how my skin feels and looks after using this product for a couple years."
"Works well. . ."
"It’s quite pleasant in the morning, refreshing and adds a supple quality to my skin."
"I've been using this product for years! Its never let me down"
"I’ve been using this product for years and I think it’s an amazing hydrator for combination,acne prone skin."
"This is exactly what my combination skin needs. Has certainly helped to reduce the number of breakout I get. However, I do find it overpriced and will be looking for a cheaper longer term equivalent."
"When I tell you that I tried EVERYTHING to clear my adult hormonal cystic acne, believe me. I even went to an aesthetician and spent thousands of dollars on laser treatments and expensive creams, washes and exfoliants that they sold me. They made my skin worse. I then got an ad for this product, and decided to give it a try since I’ve liked other Murad products. The first night I used it, I woke up the next morning with calmer skin. The cysts were already getting smaller. Within a week, my skin was much clearer. Now, a month later, my skin is glowing and completely clear! Im so happy I could cry!! Literally the holy grail product for me!"
"The Clarifying Water Gel is one of those products that you try once and wonder why you were using anything else. I envy anyone trying this for the first time. I have acne prone skin; oil based moisturizer on my face just feels wrong. The CWG is so lightweight AND moisturizing, no clue how Murad pulled that off. I think magic."
"This is great for a night moisturizer. I found if I try to use under makeup it pills. Good scent and texture. Would have given 5 stars if not for the pills."
"Doesn’t do much. The gel consistency feels nice going on, but it’s not particularly moisturizing. I do like that it doesn’t leave my skin with a greasy shine like a lot of moisturizers, but it doesn’t do much."
