Pros Good Value, does not irritate or cause any more breakouts
Cons None
Bottom line It feels so good to find a moisturiser that does not cause any breakouts. Works well with the BP Gel and my make up goes on well on top of it.
Price paid $9.00

Pros Overall great ingredients - almost identical to the ones in my super expensive Kiehl's lotion, none of the typical pore cloggers in light/vanishing creams, good consistency & absorption, moisturizes well, cheap! Not animal tested.
Cons STINGS! It really does sting on application, like the other reviewers said. Daniel - you should investigate what ingredient it is that causes this unusual stinging. I bet it's the same one that causes the unusual scorched cinnamon scent.
Bottom line Hate to say it but till the irritating ingredient has been identified and eliminated -PASS on the moisturizer.
The rest of the regimen is great.
Kiehl's Ultra Facial lotion is better, somewhat thicker and still absorbs well & doesn't clog pores, soothes rather than irritates, and comes with or w/out SPF. It's ridiculously expensive, but so far the best moisturizer I've used. Daniel should try to emulate it...

Pros The consistancy is good, packaging is nice
Cons Has a strong black pepper smell, I broke out in an itchy, bright red rash shortly after applying it (I've NEVER had a reaction like that to any other product)
Bottom line I would not buy this again

Nicolai from Copenhagen, Denmark

Pros I like how light it feels, and how well it moisturizes. I also like that it is unscented.
Cons It makes my skin a little red and warm. You should deffinitely not get it onto the skin around the eyes; it burns!
The dispenser (pump) is very fragile, and easy to get broken if you transport it with you.
Bottom line I like this moisturizer and I will definitely keep on using it. The price is low, compared to other products in my contry, and still its a great product. But - do something about the dispenser. Mine was broken already when recieving it in the mail.

Pros Goes on fairly easily, good size for the price, doesn't irritate my skin.
Cons Gives off a funny smell that stays for quite some time. Feels like it leaves a light residue on my face after a few hours.
Bottom line I'm dissapointed, much like other people here. The face wash and BP are outstanding products and I love them, but this falls far short of my expectations. I won't be ordering it again, I'll go back to my older moisturizer which was better smelling and left no residue.

Pros Light yet thoroughly moisturizing. Absorbs completely.
Cons No SPF, but great for nighttime. As I understand it, an SPF version is in the works.
Bottom line I purchased this for my son, and tried it myself. I'm 41 and have pale, sensitive skin with mild rosacea. This moisturizer didn't irritate my skin *at all,* and I'd use it day and night if it had SPF (I look forward to the SPF version!). This really is the best facial moisturizer I've ever used. And my son likes it, too! Thank you so much!
Price paid $10.50

Nicole from Berkeley, CA

Pros Uh....I guess I liked the blue bottle.
Cons Burning sensation, oil residue, burnt smell, high cost for small amount.
Bottom line I dont usually write reviews...in fact I almost NEVER write reviews about anything. But this stuff made me bring my a** back on here. And I'm not very picky so that says something. Yes, it did have a strange smell (kindof like hair dye)yes it felt weird while "gently" rubbing it into my face, and yes it did leave my skin oily afterward. All that was alright, but I couldn't take the stinging-which didnt sting right away. At first it was a light tingle and I thought "those folks who reviewed it were just a bunch of p******" but about 15 mins later it went from annoying to "get this s*** off my face!" So I went to Walgreens and bought some Cetaphil, washed that junk off my face (which now has a bunch of little red irritation bumps)and now I'm sitting here mad that I wasted an hours worth of pay on that liquid face irritant.

Pros Goes on really easily. Worked great for the first couple of months.
Cons After a couple of months of successful use, I'm now finding it's leaving my face itchy with red patches, almost like an allergic reaction of some sort. I've stopped using it and am back on the search for a good moisturizer.
Bottom line Not the right one for me.

Pros This is the ONLY moisturizer I've tried that did not leave my face feeling greasy or cause new breakouts (and I've tried a lot over many years). Doesn't sting or burn my skin.
Cons NONE.
Bottom line It works. I use it over BP Gel or Green Cream, and it's just about eliminated the vicious cycle of redness/irritation/flakiness.
