Murad announced that it has received two seals of approval from the Skin Cancer Foundation. Two products - Murad Professional Daily Moisture Charge SPF 30 and Murad Man Face Defense SPF 15 - have completed a vigorous review process and are now recommended for sun safety and approved by the Skin Cancer Foundation.

To earn the Skin Cancer Foundation Seal, scientific data illustrating that a product sufficiently and safely aids in the prevention of sun-induced damage to the skin is reviewed by a committee of photobiologists - experts in the study of the interaction between ultraviolet radiation and the skin.

"Achieving the Skin Cancer Foundation Seal for our products is a prestigious and scientifically validating recognition," said Howard Murad, M.D., dermatologist, CEO and founder of Murad, Inc. "The Daily Moisture Charge SPF 30 and the Face Defense SPF 15 exemplify our organization-wide commitment to skin health. We are honored to share this benefit with our customers."

Murad Professional Daily Moisture Charge SPF 30 is a multi-active formula that immerses skin with moisture as it protects against UVA/UVB damage.

Murad Man Face Defense SPF 15 is an oil-free moisturizer that pumps up the skin with weightless hydration and antioxidant protection.

Murad, Inc. was founded in 1989 by Howard Murad. M.D., recognized as one of the world's foremost authorities in skin health. Based in Los Angeles, CA, the global headquarters are home to the award-winning Murad Inclusive Health Center and Spa, Murad Medical Group and Murad Research Labs.

As the pioneer of the doctor-branded skincare and medical spa movements, Dr. Howard Murad and his research team develop innovative formulas that consumers can access conveniently through the company website, salons, spas and select retail outlets. Murad products are available in over 38 countries, and are ranked number one as the best-selling professional skincare brand in leading salon and spa locations worldwide.
