Now on WellConnected just in time for Acne Awareness Month: We've all been there—a huge pimple appeared on your face overnight, and it's just begging to be popped. But before you start picking, it's important to remember that popping pimples can actually do more harm than good.

Clearer skin, for every body. Meet Retexturizing Body Pads and Clarifying Body Spray, our two new acne-fighting innovations designed to clear and prevent body breakouts on the back, shoulders and beyond—all while smoothing and soothing irritated skin. Retexturizing Body Pads were formulated with max-strength salicylic acid and exfoliating glycolic acid to swiftly clear acne in just 1 use while also treating keratosis pilaris and ingrown hairs. Plus, calming azelaic acid rebalances aggravated skin to help you achieve your clearest, smoothest skin yet without the irritation. Clarifying Body Spray quickly clears and prevents breakouts all over the body without over-drying skin, featuring a powerful blend of glycolic acid, salicylic acid, allantoin and blue lotus extract. It's convenient, quick-drying and perfect for taking on-the-go, so you can break free from breakouts anywhere, anytime.

As the #1 Dermatologist-Founded Brand*, we know sun protection. Last Friday, we spent the day in the desert to celebrate the launch of NEW Multi-Vitamin Clear Coat SPF 50 at Parker Palm Springs. While guests learned all about our new SPF and the importance of sun protection with dermatologist Dr. Tia Paul, Multi-Vitamin Clear Coat SPF 50 was working overtime on their skin to recharge antioxidant levels, protect against early aging and boost resilience. It’s sun protection + skin treatment for all skin tones (plus, it’s 100% clear). *Based on first half 2023 prestige skincare sales data, not including professional brands

Happy Earth Month from the #1 Dermatologist-Founded Brand* that's committed to bringing you sustainable, science-backed skincare solutions—from our partnership with TerraCycle to our new refills. Since April 2022, we've been partnered with TerraCycle to help breathe new life into Murad empties through our free recycling program. Over the last two years, we've recycled over 9,400+ Murad empties, which equates to 1,100+ lbs of waste diverted from landfills. These empties are then turned into raw materials for plant pots, tote bags, outdoor furniture and more. Want to get involved? You can recycle your empties for free today at murad.com/terracycle. Beyond our recycling partnership with TerraCycle, we're furthering our commitment to sustainability with our products, too. Last month, we launched our new Retinal ReSculpt Overnight Treatment and Cellular Hydration Barrier Repair Serum refills, which reduce packaging by up to 85% (vs. full pack). These new refillables help you cut back on waste in your beauty routine while saving 15% on cost.

Formulated with vitamins C-F, patented bio-fermented clary sage and omega-packed chia seed, this 100% clear non-white cast SPF nourishes and protects against early aging while recharging antioxidant levels depleted by sun exposure.

We've got barrier repair down to a science. This January, we put our NEW Cellular Hydration Barrier Repair trio to the cold weather test at the 2024 Sundance Institute Film Festival. As the #1 dermatologist-founded brand* with clinically proven results, we know that better skin starts with a better barrier. So we took our state-of-the-art skin imaging tools (and one of our favorite derms, Dr. Tia Paul) on the road to see how our new trio works to hydrate and repair the skin barrier at the cellular level. From snowmobiling to Sundance premieres, these products kept our skin hydrated and our barriers protected (at the cellular level) all weekend long. *Based on first half 2023 prestige skincare sales data, not including professional brands
