A Beauty Product Sent from Heaven



It took me years to finally stumble upon this amazing product and now I feel the need to spread the word! If you're like me, you question the true benefits of drugstore moisturizers, such as Neutrogena and Clean & Clear. You want your skin to feel soft and refreshed, while steering clear of those pore-clogging chemicals. Even though these popular drugstore brands claim to be "#1 dermatologist recommended", I was never satisfied with the condition of my skin while using them. They either left my skin dry and irritated or oily and dull.








Murad's Skin Perfecting Lotion ($33) is available in two formulas, one for Normal to Combination skin, and another for Oily to Acne-Prone skin. I've tried both and fell in love. Murad has included unique ingredients to tackle an array of skin problems, while simultaneously moisturizing the skin.

Retinol and Queen of Meadow extract penetrate pores to keep them clear. Honey extract tones and tightens the skin. Algae extract provides sebum (oil production) control. Talc helps to prevent shine. Arnica helps heal and calm irritated skin.

This product has received hundreds of online reviews which average a score of 5 out of 5 stars. Here are some customer reviews from drugstore.com.




This is the best moisturizer that is oil free and still feels very moist. It gives my skin a great glow. I only use the gel exfoliator every other night because I have combination skin that tends to dry easily. Other than that, this line has been the best I have ever tried. It is a little expensive but it is so worth the try. And did I say that I only used it for a week and a half and the results are getting better and better. I can't wait for the long run!!!-- Anonymous


I've been using this product for the past 3 months every morning after cleansing (and prior to applying the Murad Oil-Free Sunblock Sheer Tint), and my oily skin has had no problems. It leaves my skin soft and lightly moisturized, even in the winter months when I normally suffer from dry, peeling skin. And best of all, it has not caused me to break out or increased the shine factor, something I've not been able to say about other moisturizers! I'd highly recommend this to anyone with adult acne-prone skin!-- Christie W, Woodbury, MN
