Murad Hydration Intense Recovery Cream - Deeply Moisturizes Severely Dry and Stressed Skin - For Face and Eyes, 1.7 Fl Oz

Fabulous product

Murad is one of the leading skin care products for all Spas, Salons and used by eEstiticians all over the world. This keeps my skin looking silky, like class all day. Doesn't clog doors and it's reasonable price allowed anyone to try it. Look if you honestly try it and, you dislike it, just send it back. But I've used it for years and at 53 I'm constantly thought to be 33-36. Who doesn't want to hear that. Loves it . Kinda wish Murad had a ambassador or influencer deal.

I live in Colorado where the cold and windy winter weather can suck all the moisture and wreck havoc on your skin. I’m always looking for something to quench the thirst of my dry skin because the only thing that seems to work is Cetaphil mixed with Aquaphor, (yes I use it on my face at the suggestion of my friend who is a Dermatologist) and it works great. However, we all know that petroleum is one of the worst products that we can use, so I’m always searching for something better. Murad has great products that I’ve used faithfully in the past and discontinued use when I decided I don’t want to use all the chemicals that make up his products but I thought I’d try with this as this ingredients in this are better than petroleum. I think it’s a good product, and a little goes a long way. It felt nice on my skin, smell is clean and subtle, not too thick after emulsifying it on your hands first, it absorbs well and my skin felt moisturized when I woke up. Sadly, my skin broke out in a rash on both sides of my nose after 3 nights of use and so I had to stop using it. If this had not happened I think I would have finished using it but would not have purchased again, I think it’s a bit pricy, especially when one can get better or same results with as something cheaper. My search continues….

Murad makes wonderful skin care but this one is awful. Perhaps it was past it's best by date but who knows? We aren't provided mfg. or UB dates, only to use within 6 months. From when? and why was an unusable product shipped?I had to wait three weeks for something that should have been pulled and never sent out. It takes a knife or other hard object to remove the "cream" from the jar. It's useless.Btw, I've used this product before and it was fine.

A 20 year Murad customer, I find this product basic for moisturizing and wrinkle smoothing. I use it during winter when I don't need SPF30. Light texture and smooth application, does not last very long. Same heavy packaging as other Murad products that disguise small portions. Competitor products are just as good and less expensive.

I use this with their recovery serum. Both are very lightweight, but have amazing coverage. I can still feel it when I wash it off at night, when I put on Murads retinal youth serum and night cream. It’s a little pricey, but well worth it. I live in the desert, which has a tendency to suck all the moisture out of your body. No worries though, this puts it right back in.

Murad hydration intense recovery is very thick. A little goes a long way. It reminds me more of a cleansing balm than a lotion with its texture. If you use too much it can quickly become greasy and be too much product for the face to absorb. I read another reviewers comments about using with a serum and that really helped with application and absorption. Made the cream much less heavy. I use the murad rapid dark spot remover with the cream and have gotten really great results. I only use the cream at night as it does feel heavy. I would only use in the AM if you have really dry skin, I have combination oily acne prone skin. This hasn’t irritated my skin or made me break out. If you have JUsT oily skin I wouldnt recommend this for you. I could see it being too heavy and possibly clog pores. It has a nice refreshing scent as well. Doesn’t smell like old lady perfume or anything. I didn’t experience any tingling or cooling sensations as others have mentioned. Murad products have worked well for my skin.

I’ve used Murad products for several years but had not tried this before. It’s creamy and luxurious - I love it and highly recommend!
