Pros Minimal scent, easy to apply, relatively inexpensive (if you are bulk ordering)
Cons Stung a little when applied, Didn't seem to moisturize well, "Clumped Off" (the stuff peeled off it clumps after use), and when my face was red instead of stopping the redness it made my skin look leathery
Bottom line I think generally this product seems to work for most people, but I found it to be the worst of the regimen products sold through this site. I bought it with the kit, so I saved a bit on shipping and I did use it all, but overall I wouldn't recommend buying it. Since this sort of product is finicky and might or might not work with you skin, it would make more sense to experiment with different moisturizers from local stores than sending away for something with expensive shipping. But thats just my two cents.
Price paid $10.50

Pros Light consistency, sooths skin after Benzoyl peroxide treatments. Leaves your skin feeling clean, not greasy at all.
Cons available via mail order only.
Bottom line light consistency makes for very easy application. Jojoba oil is one of the components of this lotion, it seems to aid in soothing the skin after benzoyl peroxide treatments. Jojoba oil seems to help replace some of the oil and skins barriers that are removed during the cleansing process. I would recommend this to a friend.

Pros The first moisturizer I have EVER had that really controls the flakiness yet feels light-weight at the same time, has a nice clean smell, I like the pump bottle, not expensive
Cons I do wish it contained SPF
Bottom line I just recently cleaned out my medicine cabinet and was shocked how many moisturizers I have tried to ease the flakiness associated with acne treatments. I threw them all out just this weekend because this is the only one that truly works for me. I love the way it glides onto my skin and feels so light weight yet truly does the job.

Pros I have incredibly dry skin, and this moisturizer works really well. Less than a pump easily covers my whole face, and it goes on quite smooth. I have used several facial moisturizers in the past and this one is better than most.
Cons Occasionally there is some stinging when I apply the moisturizer, but that is generally only when sun burned or wind burned. SPF would be a great benefit to the product.
Bottom line There are a lot of terrible moisturizers on the market. For the price this is one of the better ones. A little goes a long way, and keeps my skin soft all day.

Pros Runny consistency for easy spreading with low pressure application.
Cons Always stings after use. Doesn't absorb properly. Leaves face burning red and sensitive. Face looks and feels shiny, oily, and greasy.
Bottom line This is some bad moisturizer. The only way I could possibly be seen after using this is covering my face in makeup afterwards. My face is shiny, oily and red, and just not presentable. Not to mention it stings something awful.

Pros None!
Cons Shiny, Greasy, Goes on bad, Stings, Shipping cost to England
Bottom line I really dislike this moisturizer. It clogs up when put on top of the BP (even when allowing an HOUR for the BP to dry), and gives a gross shine-effect that lasts all day. It's hard to get rid of the white colour. It feels greasy and just isn't pleasant to use or apply.Also, it stings like CRAZY for the first few weeks, and made my face very red and sore.... I'd avoid it! My search for a decent moisturizer continues.....

Pros Moisturizing
Cons Smells weird, takes a looong time to absorb, makes my face look shiney
Bottom line It does its job as a moisturizer, but thats about it. It has a really weird smell that I can't figure out. My skin was really dry but after using this my face looked disgustingly shiney. Just bad in general.

Pros Moisturizes without being greasy; a little goes a LONG way!
Cons Again, I would like a different "head" on the dispenser, a push tab like on shampoo & conditioner bottles.
Bottom line I use this every night before bed (I use the Olay sensitive for days & love it) and love how my face feels afterwards. My face always feels hydrated without being greasy. Plus, a little less than a full pump covers my whole face, so it lasts forever! I use the whole Regimen, and love it! My acne is gone, and I am so thankful to have finally found a product that works.
