Indoor/outdoor light defense with a naturally radiant finish

Details

UV light isn’t the only light that causes skin damage and visible signs of ageing. Blue light from excessive screen time can also take its toll. That’s why we developed our ultra-light, 100% mineral sunscreen that shields your skin against multiple types of light damage—whether indoor blue light from screens or outdoor UVA and UVB. Formula absorbs quickly with NO ashy residue and leaves a luminous, pearlised finish on the skin. Safe for sensitive skin, fragrance-free, and delivers 100% mineral protection—no chemical sunscreens.

Reviews

Favorite Sunscreen for over 5+ years

"I am a holistic esthetician and have tried every mineral, tinted, medical grade sunscreens and this Murad City Skin Age Defense Broad Spectrum is by far my favorite. It goes on smooth, it's thick but glowy, it does not give mineral white blockage. It's perfect for a no makeup day, light coverage or full coverage."

Rebeca S. (5/5)

One of the only sunscreens

"One of the only sunscreens that doesn’t burn my eyes. It goes on smoothly under my makeup and adds a little bit of skincare coverage as well. Doesn’t break my skin out. Buy it over and over."

Angelina K. (5/5)

I love it

"I absolutely love this sunscreen! I’ve been using it for about 10 years now, and I honestly can’t imagine switching to anything else. Even though I have oily skin, this sunscreen never feels greasy on my face. It also works perfectly with my foundation — no pilling, no white cast, and my makeup sits beautifully on top of it. I also have very sensitive skin, and this is one of the few sunscreens that never causes irritation, breakouts, or allergic reactions for me. Another huge plus: it doesn’t sting my eyes at all! This is truly the perfect sunscreen in my opinion. I love it so much and have already recommended it to many of my friends and family!"

Siqi L. (5/5)

Noa G. (5/5)

Easy to apply. Lightweight. I

"Easy to apply. Lightweight. I have dry sensitive skin and murad products are easy and never give me issues. I can order and know the product will be good"

A Sunscreen That Can Keep Up

"I’m obsessed with City Skin Age Defense Broad Spectrum SPF 50 | PA++++. I ranch, so I’m constantly in the sun and sweating, and most sunscreens end up running into my eyes and burning like crazy. This is one of the only ones I’ve found that doesn’t do that at all. It feels amazing on my skin, lightweight but still super protective. I also love the packaging — it’s sturdy, easy to toss in my truck or bag, and I never have to worry about it leaking everywhere. Seriously 100/10, I won’t use anything else now."

Charlie C. (5/5)

Q&A

What is the difference between the City Skin Age Defense Broad Spectrum SPF 50 PA++++ and the Correct & Protect Serum Broad Spectrum SPF 45 | PA++++? I have been using the City Skin Age Defense for years and love it. But am wondering what the difference is between them. Maybe I would love the Correct & Protect more. Please advise.
The City Skin does have a slight pink tint to it. It helps to even the appearance of the skintone. The Correct and Protect helps to hydrate, correct uneven skintone and provides SPF protection.
Hi, is this product still water resistant up to 40 minutes? I do not see it labeled anywhere on the product. Thank you!
Yes, it is indeed water resistant to 40 minutes.
I notice this product contains Retinyl palmitate. Isn't that ingredient proven to be photosensitive? Also, I use a prescription retin a at night, will this ingredient cause irritation if used as well?
The Retinyl Palmitate is not at a level that would be considered a treatment. The Titanium Dioxide 2.7% and Zinc Oxide 10.0% are both going to help block UVA and UVB rays. Just be sure to reapply!
Can it be used as moisturizing sun screen or only as a sunscreen
The City Skin Age Defense is not a moisturizer. Some use it with nothing else and others will apply a moisturizer and follow that with the City Skin.
Can I use this to replace a moisturizer or do I use a moisturizer first and put this after?
The City Skin Age Defense is not a moisturizer so depending on your skin type, would depend on if you need to apply a moisturizer prior to the City Skin Age Defense.
