| Pros | Helped with extreme flakiness |
|---|---|
| Cons | Extremely greasy, difficult to absorb, and caused a bad breakout for me |
| Bottom line | I have used the regimen for a long time, and recently my skin has become more dry and flakey. I was looking for something very moisturizing with AHA to help with flakes, but this just wasn't it for me. It was so greasy, I could never have used it during the day. I tried using lots at night, which helped somewhat with the flakiness, but left my pillows very greasy, and after a few weeks I broke out worse than I had in years. It wasn't the perfect solution for the flakes anyway, so back to the quest for the perfect moisturizer! |

| Pros | Moisturizes, fragrance free, contains AHA, does not irritate skin. |
|---|---|
| Cons | Extremely greasy, takes forever to absorb |
| Bottom line | I have never used this product on my face, but it does wonders for my dry and flaky legs. It is a bit thick and greasy probably because it contains castor oil. I would not recommend this as I've used tons of better lotions. |

| Pros | If used with a Retina-A or strong Benzoyl it keeps skin moist and beautiful. My Park Ave. dermatalogist to the stars recommended. I was shocked at a drugstore lotion but now a believer. |
|---|---|
| Cons | Probably too greasy if used alone, without a major prescription exfoliator like Retin-A or Renova. |
| Bottom line | After spending thousands of dollars on face lotions from La Prarie to Creme dela Mer to Strivectin and Chanel . . . I think my face looks younger and healthier using this inexpensive drugstore brand. However, I use in conjunction with a Retina-A/Renova as well as a morning true Vitamin C topical supplement. Please keep this in mind that it is not used solely on its own. |
| Recommended | Yes |
| Price paid | $9.00 |

Very greasy and doesn't absorb too well, but it's great to put on at night before bed. Keeps the dry skin at bay all night long.

This stuff is a nightmare.
1) Hard to spread on face (Can promote acne this way
2) Leaves a oily residue (Feels like you havent washed your face in a long time)
3) Irritates face by sun
4) ITS NOT FOR YOUR FACE! ITS FOR YOUR BODY!!!!

This stuff is indeed, really greasy. But it gets the job done. The consistancy when you put it on your skin is something like petroleum jelly, but is very light and pleasant.
Use very small amounts and gently rub it into your skin intill you're not shiny anymore; or just go out a tad reflective.

This is one of the greasiest lotions I have EVER encountered. I accidentally picked it up to use with the regimen, and have since been trying to find an alternate use for it, with little success. Yes, it gets rid of dry skin pretty effectively, but it does not absorb at ALL (even after half an hour) and leaves a greasy residue until the next time you wash. I made the mistake of using it on my feet one night, and then had to live with feeling grease between my toes all the next day.

This is by far the best stuff that I have ever put on my face. I like it because it doesn't feel very cakey and heavy on my skin. It is really light and good.
