Did you know that every day your skin is damaged by environmental aggressors, including blue light from electronic devices? This damage can cause visible signs of aging, including uneven skin tone, dullness, and fine lines and wrinkles. In fact, 4 days in front of a computer is just as harmful to your skin as 20 minutes in the mid-afternoon sun.
The City Skin Overnight Detox Moisturizer* | £65 for 50ml (currently cheapest at John Lewis) moisturizer is one of the new launch from Murad Skincare and this hydrates as well as protects the skin. This is a part of city skin range and is a step 3 in your skincare routine.
This breakthrough moisturizer detoxes your skin from pollutants that accumulate during the day and combats signs of aging:
- Super-charged antioxidants from the Marrubium Plant neutralize toxins while optimizing skin’s natural repair and defense system.
- A concentrated form of Vitamin C helps fight signs of aging by brightening skin, evening tone, and helping correct sun damage.
- A botanical blend of Sunflower, Cucumber, and Barley nourishes skin’s moisture barrier to reverse pollution related dehydration, restore youthful texture, and smooth lines and wrinkles.
Packaging
This moisturizer comes in a luxurious tub with a press-on dispenser that dispenses just enough product to avoid any wastage (which is very clever). I always lose spatula that comes with tub style products. The packaging here is air tight which keeps the product hygienic too.
Active Ingredients
- Marrubium Plant : Marrubium Plant Stem Cells produce bioactives and potent antioxidants, and when they are delivered to the skin, these potent antioxidants detoxify and neutralize pollutants as well as boost skin’s own natural detoxification and defense system.
- Vitamin C: Fights signs of aging by brightening skin, evening tone and helping correct sun damage.
- Sunflower, Cucumber & Barley: Nourish Skin’s moisture barrier to reverse pollution-related dehydration and smooth lines and wrinkles.

Overall thoughts
I have been using this moisturizer for around a month now and my skin has been clear for all these weeks. The moisturizer sinks into the skin without clogging pores and my skin has become so much softer than before. If you do not have time to layer up your products and you still want to introduce products that can reduce signs of ageing, give this moisturizer a go. Even if you do not use anti-ageing products, you will enjoy this. This moisturizer helps detoxifies skin that is affected by pollution, blue light from mobiles, laptops etc and would be very much loved by people living in cities. I am in LOVE with this one and I see myself purchasing this over and over again.

This sounds like an amazing night moisturizer, i tend to go towards products with detox effects as i feel there is effect of day to day stress and other physical/hormonal factors on my skin. This sounds like the perfect moisturizer i need to look into.
It’s fact that we’re underrating the effects of aging caused by blue screen. This moisturizer looks luxurious!
Murad products are really on my to buy list! Every time I read a review of yours about this brand, I am sooo eager to buy the product right away, haha! Thanks for sharing! It really is a magic brand, and super great for the skin xx
