Murad Launches Oil-Control Mattifier SPF 15 Three-In-One Formula Clinically Proven to Reduce Shine and Prevent Oil Build Up Recommended by Whom You Know

Murad, Inc. has announced the launch of their new Oil-Control Mattifier SPF 15, a clinically proven, three-in-one formula designed to reduce shine on contact. The Mattifier also prevents excess surface oil build up by up to 78% for more than eight hours while delivering UVA/UVB protection.  We are highly impressed at Whom You Know with the superior performance of this product.

 

      The Murad Oil-Control Mattifier SPF 15 features: 

• Murad’s unique Oil-Control Complex to help regulate oil production while preserving moisture. This provides a long-lasting matte finish and smooth appearance of pores;
• Willow Bark Extract to manage breakouts and clear skin of impurities; and 
• Argan Extract to reveal smoother, softer skin.

 

      “Acne patients often cite oily skin as their primary concern and shy away from moisturizers which they believe aggravate acne-prone areas,” said Howard Murad, M.D., Associate Clinical Professor of Medicine at UCLA and founder of Murad Inc.  “However, by not using a moisturizer, or a UVA/UVB protection agent, patients will find their skin dry, cracked and left exposed to environmental damages – while still prone to breakouts. The production of excess sebum and bacteria on the skin actually causes breakouts. To control oil production and reveal supple, hydrated skin, an oil-free moisturizer fortified with SPF protection is essential.”

Whom You Know's beauty panel put this to the test, and they raved:

Murad Oil-Control Mattifier SPF 15 helps to hydrate and protect your face.  It is dermatologist-developed while being tested on people, not animals.  The clinically-proven formula reduces shine on contact. You can dispense this Murad Oil-Control Mattifier SPF 15 easily from the tube.  I like that it is long-lasting, controlling oil up to 8 hours.  It also prevents sun damage by immediately mattifying. Being aware of the news about skin cancer it is just wonderful to know that Murad Oil-Control Mattifier SPF 15 delivers powerful UVA/UVB sun protection.  Argan Extract helps it deliver very smooth, soft skin while the Willow Bark Extract helps manage breakouts and clears the skin of impurities preventing blemishes.  Also you may conveniently tote this lightly in any bag, great to take on any overnight or trip.

My skin tends to be oily in the T-zone area, but this moisturizer keeps me shine-free all day and into the evening. I also dabbed a little bit on my eyelids and it keeps my eye shadow from creasing.  I am often looking for a moisturizer that would control my oil AND provide an SPF. I couldn't be happier with this choice! I think my favorite part is how quickly it absorbed into my skin.  The willow bark extract controlled any potential breakouts, while the argan bark extract made my skin youthful and silky smooth.

This mattifier gives me sunscreen protection without being greasy. It may not provide as much moisture as I need, but I just apply my regular lotion before applying this mattifier.
Plus, I love that Murad doesn't test on animals. 

 

My skin has always been oily, and it was always a pain keeping it matte for long periods of time. After just a couple of hours of applying makeup, I would notice the oils break through leaving my skin undeniably shiny. I would even buy specialized oil-free makeup, but would notice that my skin would still remain oily.  So I tried using oil control lotions along with my makeup to reduce the shine, but most would make my skin excessively dry. Murad is the only oil control lotion that actually keeps my skin hydrated while absorbing the oil. It’s so moisturizing that I sometimes just wear it alone under my makeup without the additional application of my daily moisturizer. Another fantastic feature of this product is that it has SPF 15. It’s great for wearing on its own, or under makeup (which I recommend highly for maximum oil control) because you know that your skin is being protected at the same time as the Murad mattifier is fighting the shine. I’d have to say that it’s probably one of the best investments I have made to my skincare routine, and I recommend it to anyone battling oily skin!

 

Murad Oil-Control Mattifier SPF15 is an absolutely awesome product. I use moisturizer everyday and this one is the BEST that I have ever used. I generally have oily skin that pops up during the day and I feel embarrassed. I have my trusty blotting sheets with me at all times but now I can kiss those goodbye! I love that this product works all day long and helps control my mid-day oily skin. This product also helps minimize pores!  I also love that it has SPF 15 and helps not only keep the oil away but also the UV Rays too! I just love not having to worry about putting on extra SPF because it's already in the mattifier.  Thank you Murad for not only protecting my skin but also for saving it too!

The Oil-Control Mattifier SPF 15 is available for $39.50 at murad.com, Sephora and select salons and spas.
