Pros:Moisturises well without clogging up pores or giving a greasy / shinny look
Cons:I prefer tubes over bottles with pumps
Bottom Line:I have read many negative reviews about Dan's moisturiser, so before I go further, I must clarify that I do not apply his full regimen. I only apply the benzoly peroxide to specific spots and only when it's necessary. As such, my positive review might not be agreeable to those who apply his full regimen and find his moisturiser not moisturising enough.

I have combination skin and I always find it extremely difficult to find the right moisturiser that will moisturise my skin and stop excessive oil production without leaving me with a greasy feel. Dan's moisturiser is my perfect solution.

In the past, whenever I applied a heavy moisturiser, it would clog my pores and make me break out. On the other hand, while a matifying cream (e.g. the Body Shop's seaweed matifying cream) would give my face a matified look for about 20 minutes, my skin would start to produce a lot of oil after that because the cream is not moisturising enough.

Dan's moisturiser is the go for m

Pros:Skin feels moist and has a good shine
Moisturize as it should
Cons:Stings at first but fine after a couple days
If only it was in stores
Bottom Line:People should remember that this will not cure the acne alone, it just helps with the drying. I use Duac and that killed my skin before I found the acne.org moisturizer which did nothing but helped out a lot. Use it for awhile and don't worry about the sting it goes away in a couple days like other people have said. Give things time and don't jump that after day 2 you are not clear! Give it time.

Pros:Great consistency, moisturizes well, eliminates flakiness, oiliness subsides within 20-30 minutes
Cons:only that it is not available in stores (although that would make the price go up)
Bottom Line:This is by far my favorite moisturizer. It is non-oily, yet effective. The wateriness takes a little getting used to, but that consistency makes it extremely easy to spread without clumping. Highly recommended.

Pros:good price (college student)
thin consistency.
extremely moisturizing but not oily!
Cons:there is a cinnamon odor (although it's fragrance free) that takes a little getting used to. i stung at first application but after a few washes my skin adapted easily.
Bottom Line:i have mixed oily/dry sensitive mild acne. before using the 3 step acne.org system i was religously using proactiv for 6 years. this is the best moisturizer i have ever used! although it has a slight sting with the cinnamon odor, it doesn't seem to negatively effect my sensitive skin. it also seems to be controlling the oil production on my face quite nicely (which is a problem i had to resolve with the oil control cream with proactiv). i would highly recommend this product and the other two acne.org products for anyone who is fed up with the inconsistency of proactiv and is looking for a change! this is the only system that has worked for me! good luck to everyone!

Pros:Moisturizes skin, leaving it hydrated and oil free underneath make up.
Cons:When you sleep with it on at night it feel a little funny. Not oily or sticky, I can't really put a word on it but it doesn't bother me at all because I know I will not have any new pimples when I wake up in the morning.
Bottom Line:Dan's products WORK. They're MY solution, and they could be your's too. All the over the counter stuff NEVER worked on me. Proactive, no. Triclear, no. Oxy, no. Neutrogena, no. You get the picture.

Pros:It moisturizes well and does a great job at combating the flakiness and dryness cause be bp
After rubbed into your face the scent which some people complain about leaves and it really is fragrance-free
Cons:When applied to extra flaky or sensitive areas on the face it gives a stinging sensation and becomes red but then the redness and stinging go away in a few minutes also I'm not such a big fan of the extra watery consistency that it has
Bottom Line:This is a great basic moisturizer for not extremely dry skin. but sometimes i apply this and then put on a more rich and nourishing moisturizer to extra dry areas.A few little tweaks that Dan seems to be working out and this could be the greatest moisturizer ever. But still I would definitely recommend this to a close friend or family member!

Pros:It smells sooooooooooooo good! Very light and fast absorbing. Works well under make-up.

Bottom Line:It seems it stings some people and not others, despite the stinging it doesn't make me break-out and thats worth it!
