Review 2 for Essential-C Daily Renewal Complex
-02.25.13
I probably would've never looked at this treatment because of it's price tag (I felt I wasn't quite there yet in age to justify needing such an expensive heavy duty treatment) but it was recommended to me as a night treatment when I saw shopping for a more potent night cream. I was still hesitant to try the sample knowing the price but gave in and pretty fell in love with what it did for my skin. I have blemish prone skin with quite a few dark spots and stubborn acne scars that wouldn't budge. This stuff actually helped brighten my skin within a couple of nights. I tried clinique even better skin corrector serum as well as a few similar products and nothing made my skin look and feel as good as this stuff does. I was worried that it wouldn't really sink into my skin given the consistency but I definitely notice a difference in my skin when I wake up. It's pricey but it has been one of the most effective skincare products I've used.

Review 3 for Essential-C Daily Renewal Complex
worth the investment
-10.28.12
Quick Take: hydrating, exfoliating, moisturizing, brightening
If you want brighter, smoother, firmer, younger-looking skin, this is your one-stop shop. Also helps control excessive oiliness while hydrating. contains every ingredient anyone who is serious about skin care should have in her arsenal: retinol, VITAMIN C, vit E. Skin is smoother and brighter instantly. gentle enough that I used it daily. control break outs too to some degree.
if you're going to invest in something higher-end, this is the one to invest in.

Quick Take: exfoliating, evens skin tone, helps acne
Murad has the best skincare line! You get what you pay for! I am 37 still have breakouts & oily skin. This works amazingly well w/the acne exfoliating lotion! Its pricey but totally worth every penny! My skin glows in the morning & helps my acne. A little goes a long way & give it a chance!

Review 5 for Essential-C Daily Renewal Complex
Pure heaven!
-03.03.12
Quick Take: dimishes fine lines, luxurious
I absolutely adore this product! I started using this about 8 months ago and have noticed that my age spots have faded dramatically. This really is a great product and you really should try this out for yourself. I've noticed that some people are stating that it stings when they put it on. I personally did not have that problem at all. Since everyone's skin is different, I think it would be best to go to a store and ask for a sample so you can try it out on your skin for yourself.
This has a very nice texture, feels just like silk on your skin. A little goes a long way so while its expensive, it will last for quite awhile. This is SO worth the extra money. You really have to try this out. I just cant say enough about this wonderful product!

Review 9 for Essential-C Daily Renewal Complex
Excellent Product for everyday use
-08.28.11
Quick Take: tightening, preventative, fades sun spots, improves clarity of the skin
I've been using this product for a month now, and I've noticed that my skin's texture has improved quite a bit. It's also helped fade some of the sun spots on my face. I've received a few compliments on my skin while using this product. There is a bit of a tingling feeling upon application, but highly recommend it!

Review 10 for Essential-C Daily Renewal Complex
Fantastic Product
-08.12.11
Quick Take: dimishes fine lines, tightening, preventative, fades discoloration from sun and blemishes
Other products claim to provide "make-up optional" skin, but these vitamin-C products from Murad are the first that have actually delivered for me! My skin just adores these products, especially this one. Skin tone is more even, glowing, youthful, lines are reduced, discoloration from sun and the occassional break out is fading. Can't recommend this highly enough.

Review 12 for Essential-C Daily Renewal Complex
Refreshing
-07.21.11
Quick Take: dimishes fine lines
Stings a little bit but goes on velvety smooth. Vitamin C is one of the major ingredient which is known for anti-aging and skin brightening. Can't go wrong when the name itself is the first few ingredient, you are getting what you paid for.

Brightens skin and fades sun spots
-05.12.11
Quick Take: preventative, brightens
Like some other reviewers noted, this cream does sting a bit but I don't mind it so much because it isn't unbearable and it makes me think the product is working. I've been using this product for about three weeks. After a couple days of use I noticed my skin was a lot brighter. After a couple weeks I've noticed that an annoying sunspot on my cheek is starting to fade. Hopefully after a couple months my skin will be free of that spot! I am also using a vitamin C serum but I do think that using this product on top of it has helped brighten my skin and remove some sun damage. It is pricey but worth it.

Review 16 for Essential-C Daily Renewal Complex
Feel the burn!
-04.10.11
My skin is not sensitive and I can wear most things, however if there are any sensitive areas or if you use Retin-A, this is not the cream for you! It made my eyes tear and my toes curl. In fairness, I can't comment on its effectiveness as I was un able to use it more than once or twice and not consecutively.

I'm so bright!
-03.30.11
Quick Take: preventative, dimishes fine lines, brightening
This is a heavenly product. I've been using it for almost a year and it works great at brightening the skin also as a nice foundation primer. I keep replenishing my stock!
Also....works great on the weekend when I wear no make up. It smooths my skin and blurrs imperfections.

AH MAY ZING!
-03.15.11
Quick Take: tightening, dimishes fine lines, moisturizing
This product goes on so incredibly smooth that I can't keep my hands off my face afterwards. My fiance and I both use this and absolutely love it. He has noticed the smoothness and softness in my skin and says he can see it looks fresher. I use VERY sparingly because it is VERY expensive.

I purchased this product about three weeks ago and I truly see a difference in my skin. It is much softner, even tone and has a brightness. Although a bit pricey, it was well worth the investment

Review 20 for Essential-C Daily Renewal Complex
-02.01.11
Have used this product for a month. I'm not sure if it is making a huge difference, but it goes on smooth and I think it helps my skin absorb my night treatment. The one drawback is it burns a little after application, but that goes away fairly quickly.
