| 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 |
| Recommended: | No |

| 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 |
| Usage: | Nicolai has used this item for about a month. |

| 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 |
| Usage: | Colin has used this item for a few weeks. |

| 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! |

| 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. |
| Recommended: | No |

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

| Pros: | Goes on light and smooth. Very easy to apply. |
| Cons: | I don't know why, but this stuff BURNS! The BP doesn't bother my skin, but then when I put on this lotion it burns like crazy and makes my face very irritated and red. Thi seems to happens even after waiting 30 mins after putting on the BP. |
| Bottom Line: | This stuff burns and irritates my skin way too much to continue use. Back to the Cetaphil for me. I would only recommend if you think you have really tough skin. |
| Recommended: | No |
