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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

PERFECT!!
I can't rave enough about how perfect this is. I've tried to find cheaper better options and I haven't found one. This sunscreen is perfectly moisturizing even with those retinol flakes. The color is the perfect light beige peach that blends in to really a glow. The result is your skin but better, pores blurred and color perfected. NOT mask like, and is perfect for women who don't like foundation. I usually don't like sunscreen with color, I like for my skin to look like my skin. This does that but better. I like a dewy finish and this does stay dewy for a while but eventually absorbs in. One could always set with powder though. I do not get any breakouts with this, and skin never gets dried out and crinkly, something that often happens with high zinc formulations. I don't really go in the sun often, but this protects me when I do. I definitely recommend this sunscreen!

Pleasantly surprised
I've been using PCA sunscreen with Hylaronic Acid for 2 years. It's the only sunscreen I use on my face, neck & chest. However, I've been using the Murad Environmental Shield Essential-C Eye Cream under my eye because my skin is so sensitive. For some reason, I couldn't find my current eye sunscreen Murad product on LovelySkin website, so I sorted through the reviews on what people recommended, and I came across this cream with titanium & zinc. What a wonderful surprise! I love it for under my eyes and my face, neck and chest. It has a minor tiny that disappears. It goes on do easily. I love it. I'm not out, but I'm ordering more, so I can keep an extra in my purse.

Best Face Sunscreen I''ve Found
This is, without question, my favorite mineral facial sunscreen because it leaves no white (or grayish) cast due to the very sheer tinted color (which is invisible upon application) and because there is no color transfer later onto my shirt collars. Additionally, it is fragrance-free, has an ultra lightweight fluid texture that spreads easily, is not greasy and feels moisturizing. The real bonus is the broad spectrum SPF 50 with the highest protection rating (PA++++) against UVA rays. The only downside is that it is very expensive. But I like the Murad to a greater degree than any of the other broad spectrum, mineral, SPF 50, fluid sunscreens that I've used. And because of that I'm more apt to use the sunscreen everyday, year-round, as directed by my dermatologist.

Excellent physical sunscreen
I really appreciate this physical sunscreen because I like to change it up from time to time. I like the texture, which is light and goes on easily and absorbs easily. The tint hides the white cast well. I also like that it is rated PA++++, which is the highest protection rating from UVA rays. The only drawback to this sunscreen is its price.

LIGHT NON-IRRITATING SUNSCREEN
I'm 58 with mature skin and was leery to try this sunscreen because it contains both Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) and Retinyl (Vitamin A) both of which can cause sensitivity and irritation. The dosages must be so low that my skin does not become irritated using this sunscreen. The sunscreen does the job because my face is out in the sun a lot and face is still as white as a ghost!
