| Pros: | Smells nice |
| Cons: | Makes me break out in a rash and itch all over my face. The contrast between the circles under my eyes and my cheeks are more prominant than ever. |
| Bottom Line: | The box that this package is in is the same size as the regular lotion with spf (sorry don't know the name) and the same price. However this product contains almost 2 fluid ounces less. The small print on the back also states that this product may cause sunburn. I'm not really sure how that works since its suppose to be an SPF of 15. |

| Pros: | non-greasy, absorbs well, good price, smells nice and goes well under makeup |
| Cons: | warning: it will sting like holy hell if you put it on an open zit...I also wish it had better spf protection |
| Bottom Line: | I had a huge breakout in Feb 2008 from going off my birth control pill. In March I started back on Stieva-A gel 0.025% at night and THIS during the day and 1 or 2 nights/week. REALLY HELPED.
I'm VERY pale so if I have a zit it leaves a red mark no matter what....I would say my red marks have faded about 50%+ and my skin is smoother and softer and less red.
Give it a try!!! |

| Pros: | Works ok as a moisturizer. Has SPF for sun protection. The AHA also helps with acne a bit. |
| Cons: | Makes my face greasy, shiny, and sticky. The stinging is a byproduct of the AHA. I don't mind it at all but some might. Didn't really care too much for the smell either. It seems to take a while to really absorb into the skin |
| Bottom Line: | I don't like the sticky greasy feeling of this moisturizer. |
| Recommended: | No |

| Pros: | Smoothed out my face, got rid of some of the bumpiness. Face feels much softer and looks brighter. Has a nice creamy/buttery smell to it. |
| Cons: | Stings at first week of use. A little greasy looking but not as bad as other moisturizers. |

| Bottom Line: | i have oily skin. this product makes my skin even oilier after i apply at but it really really helps with acne and i'm starting to see it help with sun damage. i currently use proactiv and i just apply this product for overnight. i would never use it during the day because it makes my face look like an oil slick. i wake up with clearer and brighter skin. |
| Usage: | someone has used this item for about a month. |

| Pros: | Seems like my skin is improving - less redness, possibly less acne (but it's hard to tell). No new breakouts. |
| Cons: | Stings a while after application. Seems to react more with the BP when I use both together - more greasy and more irritation than when AHA used alone. Unfortunately, not a magic potion for active acne bumps. |
| Bottom Line: | A little greasy feeling at night, stings (even after waiting for skin to completely dry) but initial irritation goes away in about 10 minutes or less. For daytime, I skip the BP and just use the AHA lotion under oil-free makeup. Surprisingly, my skin has been much less oily during the day, so that has been great. Starting to peel around mouth area. No miracles yet, but I've only been using it a week. |
| Recommended: | Yes |

| Pros: | I have been using this product for over five years. I'm 61 and my skin looks much younger. Everyone asks me what I use. I use it for day under my make up and at night, because my face is dry. It also keeps my face from breaking out. |
| Cons: | The sting. |
| Bottom Line: | Since I've been using this product successfully for over 5 years, I will keep using it. It's much less expensive than other products I've tried and I find it works better for me. |
| Price Paid: | 12.00 |

| Pros: | It provides a nice base for make-up--make-up goes on smoothly and evenly over it. |
| Cons: | Itches like crazy when I first put it on! |
| Bottom Line: | I haven't decided yet if the itching is worth it but it sounds like that is not uncommon with this product. I have rosacea really bad so maybe it is helping the redness and that is why my make-up looks better. I didn't realize when I bought it that this would be an advantage but in reading the postings, it sounds like the product helps with redness so I will continue to use it with this in mind and see if it helps. |

| Pros: | Evens out skin tone
Helps with red marks |
| Cons: | very slow for the red marks..
face feels/looks greasy |
| Bottom Line: | It helped to even out my skin tone within a couple of weeks (especially for the slight redness i had in the t-zone area). Skin colouring now looks pretty even all around.
It's taking a long time with the red marks, but I think there's been a SLIGHT improvement..
I use this every night after I cleanse & tone, & I have stopped breaking out - my cleanser & toner have been the same for months & months, so I THINK this moisturizer plays a big part in this!
I can't wear this during the day, or whenever I'm going out, because it leaves my skin looking/feel SUPER greasy. Sort of feels like sunblock. It's something I definitely can't wear under make-up (i've tried!)
Bottom line.....get it. I'm still waiting to see if the red marks will go away, but it's evened out my skin tone & my whole face just feels so much SMOOTHER.
also... a lot of people complain about the smell, but i don't think it's bad lol.. |
