Living in a busy life where we face UV light whenever we are outside or even staying indoors. There are a lot of dark spots hidden inside our skin where it will keep appearing and visible as we age. With my age now reaching 30+ I need to start taking care of the visible dark spots that keep peaking through my skin. I am really happy to try out these two products from Murad which can help me combat skin aging and stubborn dark spots too.

Product Packaging and Texture
A product that comes in pump packaging is always my favorite type of skincare product that I will choose. It is more hygienic and easy to control the amount that we want to use for our face each time.

The texture of the product is very lightweight. It doesn't feel too heavy on the skin when applied. It is best to use it at night time before you sleep.

Regardless that we have reduced time or exposure direct sun, we still always face our laptops and phone with us all the time. The blue light from the screen time can also cause dark spots, skin damage, and visible signs of aging. In Murad, they developed an ultra-light, 100% mineral sunscreen that shields your skin against multiple types of light damage—whether indoor blue light from screens or outdoor UVA and UVB. The formula absorbs quickly with NO ashy residue and leaves a luminous, pearlized finish on the skin.

Product Packaging and Texture
The packaging of Murad City Skin Age Defense Broad Spectrum SPF 50 is very user and travel-friendly. It is easy to use and squeeze the product out from the bottle.

It does have a slight scent when first use and apply the product on the skin. But the scent went away and does not really bother me. I really like the texture of this product even though it looks quite rich and heavy, but it doesn't have any white cast after applying instead it brightens my skin after applied.


I really love both of these products that help to reduce dark spot that is visible or even stubborn dark spots. The texture is very lightweight and absorbs well to my skin when applied. It doesn't feel too heavy or greasy! When I use the Rapid Dark Spot Correcting Serum at night, I can feel my skin brightens and feel hydrated even after a whole night. 

For the City Skin Age Defense Broad Spectrum SPF 50, I really love to apply it to my face without feeling too dry or any white cast on the face. It does feel slightly greasy on the face when applied, but I didn't feel uncomfortable when wearing a face mask or without. It has quite a strong scent when apply too, but it goes away quickly after a while.


Check out my skin transformation after 14 days of using both of these amazing products. I really how my complexion looks like after using both of the products for 14 consecutive days.
