| Pros: | Goes on super light and absorbs very well, also even though it has no fragrance it smells strangely good. |
| Cons: | Could be more moisterizing, but then it would be accompanied by a more greasy and heavy feeling, unless Dan can do something magical. |
| Bottom Line: | Best moisterizer ever! |
| Recommended: | Yes |
| Usage: | David has used this item for about a week. |
| Price Paid: | 8.00 |

| Pros: | Nice light consistency, generous size and convenient bottle |
| Cons: | Cinnamon odor, burned my face slightly and then my neck broke out in a horribly itchy rash. |
| Bottom Line: | I can't use it...wish I could. I also had the feeling that whatever causes that fragrance caused my reaction. I actually tried it again after the rash healed (took about a week) just to be sure. The rash came back when I started using it again. |

| Pros: | Very lightweight, yet works unbelievably well! |
| Cons: | Not a single one. |
| Bottom Line: | I almost never review products, but this one is worth the time. I've been using it for about 2 months now, and am amazed at how well it works. Flakiness is totally gone, and my skin is as healthy as it's been in a long time. Here's something interesting: Dan's regimen seems to work better for me if I use the moisturizer FIRST, and the BP gel last (after washing). Reversing those two steps completely cleared my skin. |

| Pros: | Cost effective (ish), big bottle, smooth, absorbs easily |
| Cons: | Not as effective on flakes as Cetaphil, have to lose of it for it to be effective, Leaves my skins feeling dry and flakey after a few hours. |
| Bottom Line: | I have been using this for a few months. I wanted to give a fair trial. However the results are not great. This moisteriser is not 100% effective on flakes. It works great for about 2 or 3 hours then the flakes return. I feel dry and become flakey after this time. The only way to have a flake free day (to a certain degree) is to use A LOT of it and to moisterise twice in the morning before leaving for work, which is highly inpracticle. It does not do much to reduce redness caused by b.p. This moisteriser does show a lot of promise. A few tweaks here and there and it will work great, maybe adding alpha hyrdroxy into the mix will solve the problems. A good first attempt from Dan on this but there a few teething problems. |

| 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. |
| Recommended: | Yes |
| Usage: | Vanessa has used this item for a few weeks. |

| 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: | 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. |
| Recommended: | Yes |

| 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. |
| Recommended: | No |

| 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! |
