An Old Pal, Good for Younger Skin

I used to use this about 10 years ago and for a while it was amazing. I recommend for a first moisturizer...it's light, not for any problematic skin issues/just general, yet it makes your skin feel really good and smells great. I outgrew this cream many years ago and opt for a heavier cream now, but it's great and not loaded with any chemicals.

Runny product

The product is really runny. It literally pours out of tube. I actually lost a bunch of it down the drain. Yes, it smells good and provides SPF protection, but its so watery that I can't help but wonder if it really is protecting my skin from the sun. I'm sure there are better spf products out there other than this one.

Beauty Editor Post

Murad's Energizing Pomegranate Moisturizer - SPF 15- is a light textured moisturizer with sunscreen protection that offers a nice combination of UVA and UVB protection, essential for protecting the skin. Dr. Murad, known for his pomegranate research, is the first to incorporate the pomegranate's multi-tasking talents into anti-aging skin care, sun care products, and internal supplements (more on t...read morehose later). As a powerful antioxidant, pomegranate extract contains potent free radical neutralizers that work hard to mitigate the damage that directly causes aging. As an added bonus, pomegranate boosts the healing process and the SPF of a moisturizer and/or sunscreen . . . long story short, less chemicals are needed to do the job, and that is always very good thing. The plant, vitamin, and mineral components boost this product into much more than just a sunscreen. Artemia extract, an algae, is a back-up antioxidant supporting the renewal process. The mineral trio (magnesium, zinc, copper) will help activate cell metabolism. Copper plays an important role in the formation and quality of collagen and elastin fibers (strengthening the elasticity of skin and blood vessels), Zinc accelerates healing and is an effective sun protector, and Magnesium is considered the anti-stress mineral playing a major role in health and functioning of cell membranes and promoting lymph circulation. The texture will be more suited to a normal to seborrheic skin, unless a nourishing serum is applied underneath (remember always wait a minute or so between layering of products). Not recommended for dry skin. (original post seen at www.beautyeditorpost.blogspot.com)

Gave me a sea of milia

When I first put this on, my skin began to tingle and itch. I felt like I wanted to wash my face immediately. Altough it was itchy, uncomfortable and greasy, I kept it on all day. By day 2 of using this product (usually it takes about a week or so for a product to cause issues, if it is going to cause any) I had a small cluster of tiny zits, whiteheads on blackheads on my lower cheeks, white...read moreheads by my temples and a painful, deep under the skin zip right on the tip of my nose (lovely). Hell no, I will not be using this product again! I haven't had a zit in months and my face has been clear of any congestion for a long time before trying this. Also, when I washed this stuff off after the second night - my face felt uncharacteristically dry. I do have a problem with a lot of face moistururuzers, but have never erupted this quickly. I only gave this 2 lippies because perhaps someone who is not at all zit, blackhead or milia prone may have some luck with this. But if you are, stay far away from this - I'll need to spend a couple of weeks nursing my skin back to health!

Love the way this smells!

I like this product. I like the way it feels, not real heavy but still moisturizing. The real benefit is the SPF 15 without it irritating my skin.

Works great!!!

I highly recommend the moisturizer-it's light, smells nice, and offer very good value for the price/size. Typically products with SPF smell bad to me or has a weird smell to it but this smells great and it doesn't make my face as oily (I really have oily skin). The best moisturizer thus far for me.
