Pros:The best way to describe this moisturizer is that it's like rubbing sweat on your face. It's extremely light and keeps the moisture locked in your skin. Using this moisturizer is as refreshing as washing your face with cold water on a hot day.
Cons:Because it is so light, it's not a good moisturizer if you suffer from severe dryness. Your face will also have a sweaty glisten to it for a few minutes after you put it on.
Bottom Line:Best moisturizer on the market today, both for quality and for value. It goes over benzoyl peroxide without leaving any flakes, and there is no sting since it's just like putting water on your face, except the water doesn't evaporate off. Also, notice that the ingredients are "water, glycerin, jojoba oil..." - what other moisturizer has jojoba oil as the third most prevalent ingredient? Some might have it in trace amounts so that the difference is indistinguishable, but this moisturizer is something special.

Pros:light and inexpensive
Cons:I have asian skin. Have used it for two weeks. I have built up tons of white heads since I've used it. It leaves my skin shinny and "sticky", and does not moisturize well. I guess this is not the product for me...
Bottom Line:It's Dan's products and it's inexpensive. Worth to try it. You never know. Trash for one person is another's treasure. Plus Dan's BP is the best out in the market!

Pros:Best moisturizer I've ever used.
Cons:Still don't like the "acne.org" logo on the packaging...
Bottom Line:This is the product that cleared my skin. After using benzoyl peroxide for 10 years with little success, I started using acne.org moisturizer and within weeks my skin completely changed. I've tried other moisturizes over the years but they always seemed to make my skin feel and look worse. But now after using Daniel Kern's moisturizer for over six months, my skin is clear of acne, soft, and never dry. The tone of my skin is also consistent and looks healthy. For anyone using the regimen, or any treatment, I strongly encourage you to use acne.org moisturizer. In fact, I recommend this to anyone, even if you have clear, perfect skin. And it's vegan!

Pros:Very very light.
Cons:Slightly stings, weird cinnamon smell, makes face look oily/greasy.
Bottom Line:This product works to great to moisturize. I like that it goes on very light. It feels a little thicker than water. I just don't like that it made my face look oily/greasy. I would recommend it to people that didn't care about looking oil/greasy or to just use it at night. It has a cinnamon smell to it that you will get used to. It also stings a little for the first few uses.
Recommended:Yes

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.
