Reviews For Murad City Skin Age Defense Broad Spectrum SPF 50 PA++++
Great tint for fair skin
I have very fair, cool-olive toned skin and struggle with most tinted sunscreens. Murad City Skin is perfect and does not oxidize or turn orange on me. It is a sheer tint, but it evens my skin beautifully and spot concealer works well over it. It also does not irritate my skin, even after recently overdoing it with actives. I also find the zinc and titanium dioxide blend does not dry my skin out like 100% zinc based spf.

One of the best sunscreens I have ever used!
I really like this sunscreen. I was looking for a mineral sunscreen that would leave a white cast but that was effective. I found it. It is a lighter sunscreen (not thick, but just right). While I prefer a matte finish and this one is not a matte finish, it didn't leave too much of a shine. I will definitely purchase this again.

Excellent daytime sunscreen
City Skin goes on smooth over my daily moisturizer and provides strong protection for my skin. Goes on very soft and smooth with no caking.

Murad loves my face
Worth every penny. Superior coverage with a very small amount and makes my face very happy!

The only moisturizer I use
I’ve used this for years as a moisturizer. I use it as a sunscreen and moisturizer in one. I love that it has zinc oxide versus ingredients like avobenzene or octinoxate which irritate my skin. I will not use anything else!

Great Texture
Recommended on Wirecutter, so I gave it a try and have been using now for over a year. Very nice texture, not too heavy and a bit dry — perfect for over moisturizer and under makeup. Tint blends well.

Looks like tinted moisturizer
I purchased this to get some protection against Blue Light and Infrared Radiation. I’m unaware at which level is protecting me for said purposes but overall I really like this sunscreen. I’m fair skin and the product’s shade blends easily. I acquire a natural look as if had applied a tinted beauty balm. It stays on all day long without smudging/caking. It has a pleasant smell and hasn’t irritated my skin. I’ve had season where my skin has been combination, other times dehydrated and sometime I’ve had inflamed skin. The only negative is that the bottle is very small and since it’s an almost runny liquid it doesn’t last long. Hoping Murad launches a bigger size soon. It would be a better investment, financially speaking and also better for the environment as we would generate less waste.

Wonderful Broad Spectrum Sunscreen
I received a sample of Murad City Skin Age Defense Broad Spectrum sunscreen and was so impressed that I purchased it. I like this sunscreen because it is smooth, light weight and hydrating. Plus it brightens my skin making it look more even toned and youthful. I highly recommend this product.

Humidity Help
The spring and summer months where I live are humid and this product provides protection from the sun and also keeps my face from getting too shiny, due to the dampness in the air. I do wish the tint was darker or made more of an appearance, that's why I am giving this 4 stars.

Love!
This is my favorite sunscreen. All others smell bad and break me out, to include Skinceuticals. This sunscreen works perfectly. I use retin A and my skin burns easily. This sunscreen has prevented burns. I will continue to purchase this.

Evens skin tone, not greasy. Great primer for makeup
This SPF is my favorite.! I have fair skin and it does a nice job evening my skin tone with a very subtle tint. Most importantly it is not greasy and does not leave your face shiny. You can wear it alone or it is also a great base/primer for makeup. It seems to last forever, a little goes a long way.

Murad City Skin Age Defense Broad Spectrum SPF 50 PA++++
It was not as light as I was expecting. I received a sample that looked great but when I ordered the sunscreen, it was thicker than expected.

Love it but...
I really think this is a great sunscreen however it’s a little too heavy to wear under makeup. It’s very slightly tinted which is nice because it doesn’t leave that white cast and it’s not too dark like some other tinted sunscreens.

Great Product!
I love Murad City Skin Age Defense Broad Spectrum SPF50PA! The texture is wonderful! The lotion is not heavy and blends without any trace or discoloration. The lotion is a great base for any makeup! I have very fair, sensitive skin and I have never had any redness or sunburn when I apply this lotion, so it provides great protection. Definitely worth the price.

Effective but not light
I am 57 with combination skin that gets shiny, and never go out without sunscreen. This one was too emollient for me, didn't set matte and made it difficult to apply makeup on top. Probably excellent for dry skin, but there are better options for my type of skin at LS.

Moisture and Rosacea friendly
This is one of the most moisturizing mineral sunscreens I have been able to find. It has argan oil in it fairly high on the list along with other hydrating ingredients. This is a very healthy and skin benefiting formula. As long as you can you use argan oil I think this will make skin look better over time. I can break out if I use argan oil to many days in a row. The tint is a slight pink that could blend with most skin tones. And, it has a super pretty finish. Not oily just glow. It has similar ingredients to a primer and has worked with most of my makeup. If I was younger this is all I would put on my face to go out.
