I've been using Murad's Skin Perfecting Lotion for years now and nothing keeps my skin flake-free like this lotion. It's lightweight, but packs a punch moisturizing wise. The only downside is that it's quite pricey. It doesn't really have a scent which is fine with me. Highly recommended!

After applying this Murad Skin Perfecting Lotion liberally on my face, neck and decollete area, I broke out in severe HIVES that still cover my face and neck, five days later. There are thousands of raised, small pinks dots, and for the first few days they itched and burned so badly that only a cold damp wash cloth draped over my face brought relief. I even had a fever the first 36 hours. It was a total shock because in addition to ruining my appearance, I had never before had an averse allergic reaction to anything before-- internal or topical-- and now this. It is very frustrating. I recommend that interested consumers familiarize themselves with the full ingredient list before trying this product. Or definitely do a very small test patch on the inner arm first. I did the small test patch shortly AFTER the extremely unfortunate facial breakout, just to confirm that it had indeed been the Murad Skin Perfecting Lotion causing my hives, and that part of my arm (where I put a speck of lotion) is still ravaged with itchy dots. Terrible, terrible, terrible. PLEASE beware of the ingredients before trying this product because they will not let you return the product and you are stuck with an ineffective product!

Comments about Murad APS Skin Perfecting Lotion, 1.7 fl oz:
I use it at night, but it's good for day time as well. For day time though it needs to be followed by a sunblock. This lotion contains Retinol so it is critical to use sun protection. It helps a little bit with redness, thanks to arnica.

Comments about Murad APS Skin Perfecting Lotion, 1.7 fl oz:
How you use the product:
I use it every morning. I apply it right before putting foundation on. Leaves my skin feeling smooth, hydrated and non-greasy. I've noticed less breakouts since I started using this product.
Things that are great about it:
Non-oily, controls break-outs, great under makeup and for daily use.
Things that aren't so great about it:
It's expensive if you use it every day (I have to re-order every month). Also, it's hard to get all of the product out from the tube, so I feel like I waste a little bit of for each package.

- Smells Great

Comments about Murad APS Skin Perfecting Lotion, 1.7 fl oz:
Ever since I tried a sample of this product, I've been buying it. It works great under make up. I use it every day. Every once in a while I'll switch to something else and remember why I love this product so much. It makes my T-zone disappear and my skin looks great from it.

It's pretty pricey, but it's also the only lotion for everyday use I've found so far.

Comments about Murad APS Skin Perfecting Lotion, 1.7 fl oz:
Murad products are very gentle on the skin and effective. I break out if I use anything that isn't oil free and Murad has a number of products that I use. They're rich, but not oily. They feel fabulous too.

Comments about Murad APS Skin Perfecting Lotion, 1.7 fl oz:
I got a small tube of this at a spa that I frequent and use it sparingly, because it's so expensive. I am almost out and will be purchasing a larger size here. It is amazing stuff, very good for my sensitive skin, not greasy, quickly absorbs, and is all around the best i've found.

An incredible, light, oil-free moisturizer. A little goes a long way. I've been using this every night after cleanser/toner and my skin has been great. I'll almost definitely stick with Murad.
