Pros:Light, watery moisturizer that goes on easily and doesn't clog. Controls most of flakiness from the BP and not exceedingly oily.
Cons:Stings a bit when applied after the BP (I guess it helps the BP get absorbed into the skin more?). Fragrance is somewhat strange - it smells like tree bark or something earthy but it's not unpleasant. Takes a day or two to get used to but not strong.
Bottom Line:It's a good moisturizer for people with oily skin and need something to combat the dryness of BP. Not too heavy but gets the job done. Only complaint is the earthy smell but maybe that's the Jojoba Oil (Don't know).

Works well with other Acne.org products and I'll continue to use it.

Pros:This is a gentle, effective moisturizer. I mix a few drops of jojoba oil in it and put it on every night after the benzoyl peroxide. It keeps the balance of my skin great.
Cons:The consistency is a bit thin and it can take a little while to fully absorb. It has no spf. I find that it is great to use at night with the acne regimen, but during the day I use Olay daily moisture with spf 15 for sensitive skin.
Bottom Line:This is a great part of the acne.org regimen. When used with the benzoyl peroxide, it keeps skin clear and moisturized. It isn't think so it will let your skin breath.
Recommended:Yes
Usage:Nicole has used this item for a few months.

Pros:Helped to clear my skin, made my skin soft, full, and healthy looking. Works ok under make-up. Helped my skin to not produced as much oil
Cons:Makes my face shiny, more the first two weeks. Not a great base for foundation, caused it to turn orangey.
Bottom Line:When I started using this moisturizer my skin started to clear up even more. The first week or two my skin was quite shiny and oily but gradually that subsided. My face gets shiny no matter what I use but now it is less oily though still shiny (when I dab my face with a paper towel I can see that there is less oil on the towel). It works ok under concealer but not with foundation as it turns my foundation orange. A good base for foundation is Avene Cleanance lotion. I use this when I'm dressing up for a special occasion, daily I use acne.org moisturizer. You get a lot for the price, more than any other face moisturizer on the shelf so it is a great deal, even with the shipping charges and you only need a little, half a pump is enough for me.

Pros:Good consistency. Doesn't leave my skin oily like other moisturizers I've tried. Very light. No SPF.
Cons:Fragrance is strange but it's starting to grow on me. Pump shaft is exposed to the moisturizer when you push down, which makes me worry about bacteria getting into the bottle.
Bottom Line:I used an acidic moisturizer before this one which made my skin chronically irritated. After trying Dan's moisturizer, within a few days my skin was incredibly non-irritated. I was really surprised how changing to this moisturizer helped eliminate those last few zits that kept popping up. It also keeps my nose especially not irritated.

Also, I like that fact that it has no SPF. I hope Dan continues to offer a non-SPF moisturizer because I think it's the best on the market.

Pros:It goes on smooth, lightweight, absorbs well, no oily or greasy feeling afterwards. Good moisturisation for normal skin. I don't notice the smell that everyone else comments on.
Cons:I agree that it stings when you apply it, especially after the BP. It makes my skin red, blotchy initially after application. I developed a red rash on my neck for days and thought it was something else but finially decided it's the moisturiser.
Bottom Line:My skin tends to be sensitive and I would like the feel of a richer moisturiser since my skin is not oily. This definitely irritates my skin but I like the midweight feels of it, its not too watery, but it absorbs well without leaving a residue. Would not recommend for people with sensitive skin.
