Love this!
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I've been using Murad's Superactive Moisturizer SPF 50 with Vitamin C for a little over two weeks now, and I'm honestly loving it. My skin usually gets along really well with vitamin C, and this product was no exception—it absorbed beautifu...

Mixed review
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I recently tried the Murad Superactive Moisturizer with SPF 50, and while it has some really nice qualities, my experience ended up being a bit of a mixed bag. First off, the product applies smoothly and feels rich on the skin, though it's ...

10/10 !! Would get again
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Love the easy pump this has! It's super smooth and I love the way it applies. Does have a light smell compared to others! Works great and blends in well!
HORRIBLE!
The new formula breaks my face out! I have used the prior formula for years and I am so disappointed with this change. I never had any issues with the prior formula and this one keeps breaking my face out. Very, very disappointed.
Highly recommend!
Schools out and so is the sun! Protecting your skin is the best action you can take to avoid wrinkles and sun spots. I am no stranger to the Murad skin care brand, and have used their 30 SPF moisturizer before. But this is their new 50 SPF Brightening formula with stabilized vitamin C (this just means the ascorbic acid won't degrade or oxidize as easily, keeping your product safe and effective🤝) First of all it gives a beautiful glow to wear on it's own, but dries down enough to be a good base for foundation. I've been wearing it every day during pickleball, and although I'm a sweaty mess, it hasn't dripped into my eyes at all. We all know how terrible sunscreen burns your eyes!! It's very smoothing, has a great texture and light citrus scent. I honestly have no notes! 5/5 would recommend 👍 (I got this for free from @influenster in exchange for my honest opinion)
I have used it daily!
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This is absolutely perfect! Lotion and sunscreen all in one plus vitamin c is an added bonus. I love the bottle and dispenser too. I have used it daily and ai highly recommend!
hydrating SPF!!
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] this smooth moisturizer is nice to use on the skin before applying makeup. i love the pump for getting product out and the amount you get with each pump! it has a light citrus scent. SPF is essential in my skincare/makeup routine so i'm happy to add this. super moisturizing — probably best for winter if you have oily skin in the summer like i do.
