Celebrating 8 Years of Murad in Australia: My Top 8 Favourite Products
February is a big month for me! Not only do I celebrate my 38th birthday on the 8th (yes, the fine lines, dullness, and other subtle changes of my late 30s are starting to show—but thankfully, I have Murad to help!), but it also marks 8 amazing years of Murad in Australia. As the PRO Sales Manager for Australia, I couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate than sharing my eight all-time favourite Murad products and why they’re perfect for tackling the ever-changing needs of our skin. Let’s dive in!
1. AHA/BHA Exfoliating Cleanser – The OG for All-Over Use As I’ve gotten older, I’ve noticed my skin’s natural cell turnover slowing down, which has led to dullness and uneven texture. That’s where the AHA/BHA Exfoliating Cleanser comes in! This triple-action superstar combines chemical and physical exfoliation to smooth, brighten, and clear my skin. It’s my go-to for reviving radiance and the ultimate prep step for any skincare routine—a true original that never lets me down.
2. Rapid Dark Spot Correcting Serum – Brighten Up! Dark spots and uneven skin tone have become more noticeable in my late 30s, thanks to years of loving the sun. This serum has been a lifesaver for targeting pigmentation and bringing back that luminosity. For the best results, I pair it with…
3. Vita-C Glycolic Serum While the Rapid Dark Spot Correcting Serum tackles pigmentation at its core, the Vita-C Glycolic Brightening Serum gently resurfaces my skin to enhance its radiance. Together, they’re a powerhouse duo that takes on dullness and discoloration like a dream. These two are must-haves for glowing, even-toned skin.
4. The Hydration Heroes
Hydration is essential for everyone, no matter the age, as our skin's moisture levels naturally fluctuate over time. Here are my go-to hydration favourites:
• Nutrient-Charged Water Gel: Lightweight yet intensely hydrating, this gel instantly plumps and refreshes.
• Restorative Hydro-Hyaluronic Cream: For a richer hydration experience, this luxurious cream offers long-lasting nourishment.
• Intense Recovery Cream: Ideal for days when skin feels stressed or sensitive, this cream helps restore and strengthen the skin barrier. Whatever your skin’s needs, these hydration heroes ensure it stays supple and radiant.
5. The Retinol Trio: Youth Renewal Collagen production starts to decline in our late 30s, leading to fine lines and a loss of elasticity. Murad’s Retinol Youth Renewal line is a game-changer. Using Murad’s patented Tri-Active Retinol Technology, it tackles these signs of aging with minimal irritation. The nightly trio includes:
-
Retinol Youth Renewal Serum: Smooths fine lines and improves texture.
-
Retinol Youth Renewal Eye Serum: Brightens and firms under-eye area.
-
Retinol Youth Renewal Night Cream: Locks in moisture and refines skin while you sleep.
6. Retinal ReSculpt Overnight Treatment and Retinal ReSculpt Eye Cream When I’m ready to take it up a notch and work on that snatched jawline and lifted lids, I turn to retinal. This next-gen vitamin A derivative is 2.5x more potent than regular retinol. It’s perfect for advanced users like me who want to redefine contours and tackle those deeper lines. Plus, there’s an exciting new retinal product coming soon—watch this space!
7. City Skin Primer Age Defense SPF 50 – My Everyday Essential Living in sunny Queensland and spending so much time outdoors and at the beach, protecting my skin from environmental stressors is non-negotiable. This primer-SPF hybrid is my daily must-have. It shields my skin from UV rays, blue light, and pollution while doubling as a makeup primer. It’s the ultimate daily defense for keeping my glow intact, no matter how much fun I’m having outdoors.
8. My Favourite Murad Professional Treatment: Glycolic Pro Treatment After years of sun-loving adventures, I rely on Murad’s professional-strength Glycolic Pro Treatment to help my skin bounce back. This medical-strength peel gives me a much-needed reset, delivering powerful exfoliation and rejuvenation. It leaves my skin feeling fresh, smooth, and ready to shine through anything the day throws at me.
Our skin is always changing, but with Murad, I’ve learned to embrace every stage with confidence. I hope my favourites inspire you to explore the magic of Murad.
