desertcart.com: Murad Oil & Pore Control Mattifier SPF 45 - Lightweight SPF Facial Moisturizer and Pore Mattifier, Controls Oil and Shine for Up to 10 Hours, Provides Broad Spectrum UVA/UVB SPF 45 Protection - 1.7 oz : Beauty & Personal Care

Review: Expensive but great product! - Long overdue to review this product. I’ve been using it for years. Really incredible. Unfortunately, they have driven up the price by an absolutely huge amount over the last few years, especially considering that it’s only 1.7 ounces! That said, there really is no other oil and pore controlling mattifying cream like it, especially if you want sunblock as well. Applying separate sunblock always seems to defeat the purpose of controlling the oil and matte finish so having it all in one is really amazing. I have combination skin, but definitely oily in the t-zone and this stuff definitely works. Plus, using it regularly along with the sunblock has kept my skin looking much younger over the years and with reduced breakouts due to the oil control and this really lasts longer than any other mattifying Lotion I have ever tried. Also have to add that despite the price, it really lasts a long time because a little bit goes a long way. I find despite daily use every single morning, I only end up ordering a tube every four or five months. So it’s worth it for me. Seems expensive, but if you’re only spending about 10 bucks a month for a product that good, I think it’s worth it.
Review: THIS IS THE PRODUCT FOR RED HEADS - It says I bought this on desertcart, and I did, but I first found it at Sephora and it was recommended to me by the sales associate. I am on bottle number 5. This is the only - ONLY - skin care product I have ever emptied the bottle. Context: I have NATURAL RED HAIR and I will get sunburned in indirect sunlight. I am allergic to about 50% of sunscreens. I cannot wear moisturizer because it makes my already oily skin sticky. I hate hate hate having anything on my face like foundation. This stuff is a MIRACLE. It makes my face LESS oily while also moisturizing my dry spots?!?! It keeps me from getting burned? It's not greasy or shiny? After application I CAN'T FEEL IT ON MY SKIN?!!? I loved it so much - I bought the OTHER version (the orange one that's for pollution and such too) for my husband and it cleared up the dry spots on his face he had been using various lotions and creams to try to fix for over a year. This is my product now. This is all I will use. It's too good to be true and yet, here we are. I highly recommend this product.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good for oily t-zone
*by R***P on April 9, 2025*

This product can be costly, especially considering that one application of spf to your face should be around 1/4 teaspoon to be effective. However, this product is so worth it! My t-zone is the definition of an oil slick, but this product kept me matte for 4-5 hours, which is a victory for me. Granted, it did not keep me matte for up to 10 hours as advertised, but compared to other matte finish products, this is the one that has actually kept my shininess to a minimum for more than 1-2 hours! I recommend to all my fellow oily skin friends out there!
