Love this!

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 ...

Got less skin damage from the sun
Loved the old formula . Now my face has giant rashes all over it within the first day of use
Gentle
I received this product in exchange for my honest review. This product is a three in one with Vitamin C as well as 50+ SPF working as a moisturizer as well! It is very convenient with the pump ensuring that the perfect amount of product is used liberally across the face, neck, and chest. The smell of it is not too much either. Great for sensitive skin as well.
Too thick
I use Murad daily with SPF 30. Decided to try this with SPF 50 but it's thick & caused me to break out. Bummer
Brightening effect
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I've been using the Murad Superactive Moisturizer SPF 50 for a few weeks now, and it's quickly become a staple in my morning routine. The texture is lightweight yet deeply hydrating, which makes it perfect for layering under makeup or wearing on its own for a fresh, dewy finish. What stands out most is its brightening effect—within days, my skin tone looked more even, and some of the dullness I usually notice in the morning was noticeably improved. It gives a subtle glow without looking greasy. The SPF 50 is a major plus, offering solid protection without the heavy, chalky feel that many high-SPF products leave behind. My only small issue is that, while it's labeled "superactive," it may not be rich enough for very dry skin types on its own. But for normal to combination skin, it's a win. Bonus points for no white cast and no breakouts.
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!
