Pros:

none

Cons:

skin reaction, color, scent, texture

I was an ardent user and fan of the old moisturizer. I can't even use the new one. It leaves my skin flaky and I seem to have an allergic reaction of some sort, as it irritates my skin and turns it all red. It also doesn't go on as easily as the old formula (requires more finger pressure). The lighter pressure of the old formula meant less irritation. I'm left searching for a new product unless they bring back the old formula. :(

Pros:

Soothing
Moisturizing

Cons:

Can ball up
Leaves my skin slightly greasy with 2 full pumps

I like this moisturizer, but it is slightly bothersome that it can sometimes ball up and peel off later in the day. I find that 2 full pumps leaves my skin greasy, so I usually use around a pump and a half. I will continue to use this moisturizer until Acne.org reformulates it to get rid of the idiosyncrasies!

Pros:

Moisturised my skin effectively

Cons:

Admittedly takes a while to absorb, but i've found that's the case with all half gentle moisturisers

moisturised my skin effectively after flakiness caused by treatment, can't fault it **One thing i will say to anyone buying from the UK as well as a fairly high shipping fee i had to the pay an extra £18 import tax + handling fees before i could get my product, leaving me short of around £70 for the mens kit.. it's lasted long and would definitely reccomend the regimen but it may be just as effective and a lot cheaper if alternative products available here are used**

Pros:

This is a very good moisturizer, it does the job right and effectively, especially when used with the cleanser and treatment from acne.org

Cons:

This can only stop flakes completely if used with jojoba oil. Without it, some flakes can remain visible. Also, not related to the moisturizer itself, the shipping from acne.org had for some reason been taking up to three weeks, so buy this in advance before running out.

Good. Needs jojoba oil.

Pros:

This moisturizer is BY FAR the best on the market. It does everything it says it will do and more. I love the entire acne.org system as when its all used together I get virtually no dry flaky spots and my make up goes on ultra smooth. The first time my acne has slowed down for a record amount of time. I don't get as oily anymore because of this moisturizer. I didn't realize how much your moisturizer made a difference period. Its WONDERFUL!!!! I have tried Obagi, Skinceuticals and everything el

Cons:

ZERO

Try it, its the best!

Pros:

Doesn't clog pores
No shine or greasy feeling

Cons:

Need several applications for flakiness

I stayed away from this because of all the negative reviews and than finally decided to give it a try, and I'm glad I did. I have been on the hunt for a moisturizer for years. I have very oily skin and usually a few hours after applying any moisturizer I'm greasy. This one doesn't make me greasy at all and no shine! This a great moisturizer for anyone who has very oily skin. I gave it 4 stars because you need several applications for flakiness.

Pros:

Goes on smoothly, last a long time, doesn't clog pores.

Cons:

I need a little extra moisture. I wish I didn't need to supplement with jojoba oil, but oh well. It works. I mix with jojoba oil both morning and night. I usually apply 2 coats of moisturizer at night (few drops of oil mixed with lotion, let dry, then repeat. All flakiness has cleared up).

It works, but wish it was more moisturizing.
