I had never used murad products before then so was a bit unsure about what to expect. I am in my 30's with dry skin that can become easily dehydrated .
This is very moisturising and feels silky smooth. It's instantly noticeable when you first apply it. It feels almost dewy when you put it on and you only need just over a fingertip size to cover your whole face.
It absords well and your face feels fresh, almost like you have had a deep clean. If you wear makeup I would wait about 10-15 and it sits well under make up and has a ice subtle plumping effect on your skin.
I have used several other brands in the past with various results and sometimes my skin looked patchy. This does deliver well , I have been using this for 3mnths now and my is skin far more hydrated and smoother looking than it did a year ago!
It just appears fresher looking , not something that happens a lot so far I'm a new convert , although the full pot is expensive it will last a long time as you only need a small amount .
However at present, Murad have won me over by giving me healthy, moisturised glowing skin and I will definately be repurchasing and trying out more of their products :)

I am in my mid 30's with dry, tanned tone skin and brown eyes. My hair is dark brown, asian with normal texture.
As mentioned in the name, this product is the ultimate moisturiser for a dry skin. It's very creamy and buttery in texture, plus a good blend of ingredients are packed in this product. Having a combination skin it was on a oilier side and did break me out a lil. Had to give it to my mom who loved it as she is on the drier skin side. She used this moisturiser along with the dynamic essence and this ultimate duo made her skin plump and hydrated. It's worth a shot for dry and dehydrated skin👍
