Murad - Skincare Review and Giveaway

I'm 35 years old and am fairly confident with my body image.  There are a few issues here and there that I try to control and one of those issues is keeping my skin youthful.  Murad has a broad range of products that address most common skincare concerns and I was fortunate enough to review a few of them.

Murad's mission is to create topical skincare products and dietary supplements that transform lives through the science of cellular water, the world's most comprehensive approach to understanding health and aging.  The Science of Cellular Water looks at the ability of cell membranes to hold water within cells as the fundamental marker of youthful good health.  As America's first authentic doctor-developed brand, Murad remains true to the scientific principles of its founder, world-renowned dermatologist Howard Murad, M.D. From pomegranates to durian, Murad gives special consideration to natural ethnobotanical ingredients that have been traditionally been used to enhance health and wellness. 

The Age-Diffusing Serum by Murad reduces the appearance of medium to deep wrinkles.  It increases skin firmness by 42% in 10 minutes and inhibits collagen breakdown.  It comes in pump form and is to be used every day after cleansing by massaging a thin layer of the serum over face, neck, and chest. 

The Age-Diffusing Firming Mask is a rich cream mask that restores a firm, resilient tone and relieves dehydrated skin.  It tightens and lifts to restore natural contours, and plumps to ease lines and wrinkles.  To use, massage evenly over clean face, neck and chest.  Leave it on for up to ten minutes, then rinse with warm water and pat dry.  I use it every other day after showering. 

The Intensive Resurfacing Peel reveals brighter, smoother, younger-looking skin and its benefits include resurfacing to reduce fine lines and wrinkles, and brightening tone and smoothing texture.  The Durian Cell Reform enhances the penetration of active ingredients, while loosening the bonds holding debris and dead cells to skin's surface.  Bamboo beads provide mechanical micro-exfoliation to buff away build up.  Dried Plum Extract and Vitamin C brighten skin for a youthful glow. 

The Intensive Resurfacing Peel has four capsules.  After cleansing and toning, use one of the capsules to gently smooth onto face and neck.  Then leave on for up to ten minutes and rinse with warm water.  This particular formula is intense and people with sensitive skin may only be able to leave it on for a few minutes to start.  Each capsule has a formula for one-time use and it's recommended to apply the resurfacing peel once a week.  My skin is only mildly sensitive and I've had no reactions or problems with leaving the formula on for the maximum recommendation of time.

Although Murad's skincare products are somewhat pricey, it has been my personal experience that they work well.  My skin is more youthful and firmer.  It has less dullness and the wrinkles don't seem as prominent.  The formulas work well for my face, neck, and chest, and the results are visible.

Win It!
