Pros:

Its not greasy when it dries, doesn't make my face greasy (which is a BIG plus cause i have veryyyy oily skin)

Cons:

Doesn't QUITE tackle aALL of the dryness associated with Dan's Regimine. (in other words im still a bit dry in some spots)

This is a great product that doesn't clog my pores and is helping in Dan's regemine to clear my acne. I love how its not greasy (cause i have enough of my own grease to spare :P) So i recomend it :)

Pros:

Goes on easy
Good on flakes
Less redness than the previous moisturizer.
Less of a greasy look compared to the old formula

Cons:

Absorbs slowly
Strange color, afraid it may tint my skin tone a touch

I initially reviewed this and gave it a 2. I decided to give it another shot and realized that you absolutely have to use more than the old formula to receive the wonderful benefits. I used to use half a pump of the old formula because it made my face so greasy and red, but with this new formula I can use a pump and a half, and not appear as greasy, red, or flaky. Very pleased after my second go around with this lotion. :) Overall, this gets a 4.5 from me.

Pros:

Does not burn or sting my face.

Does not make my face red and painful.

Moisturizes wonderfully without leaving a greasy shine.

Not scented.

No colouring added.

Easy to apply.

Does not leave a weird texture or film over my skin.

Cons:

None.

Very very pleased with this new formulation. It is wonderful to have the moisturizing power without the grease. I've been on the Regimen for a year now, so I have virtually no active acne on my face. This is a great moisturizer for Regimen users.

Pros:

Light, not greasy, no strong scent.

Cons:

None!

This is the best moisturizer I have ever used. It is light, non-greasy and has no scent. I use it on my eye area, as well as on my hands at night (so my skin does not break out from my face contacting my hands while I sleep!). It is hands-down, pardon the pun, the best facial moisturizer I have found. Not sure why others do not like it. I have extremely sensitive skin and have no issues with it at all. Use as the directions state.

Pros:

Can't find any.

Cons:

Does not moisturize my skin at all. Skin feels very tight and dry an hour after I apply 4 pumps... Did not help at all with flaking. Even after applying 4 pumps, my face was dry and tight and shiny at the same time. Switched to Cetaphil and never looked back.

Pass on this moisturizer, especially if you are early on the regimen. Cetaphil worked wonders for me.

Pros:

Moisturizes pretty well, without making my face look greasy. I'm only on day 3 of the regimen, but I don't have any flakes or redness really so it could just be my skin is LESS sensitive then others who gave this product a bad review.

Cons:

I would prefer it to be in a squeeze tube like the BP but no big deal.

Unless you need SPF... I wouldn't use anything besides this or Complex 15 (also light).

Pros:

Calms the skin and reduces redness.

Cons:

By itself, it leaves my skin a little dry.

You need to add a couple drops of jojoba for this moisturizer to agree with dry skin. Too many people are complaining about this moisturizer because they either are used to the old formula or they don't know how to effectively use THIS formula. The old formula had glycerin in it, which acts like a moisturizer. Dan got rid of that ingredient for the new moisturizer (because it caused stinging for some people). Consequently, the new formula has a different feel on your skin. You need to figure out how much jojoba to mix in based on your skin's needs.

Pros:

soothing, gentle

Cons:

stings, leaves flakes, does not absorb quickly

not a fan of the new moisturizer. you have to use a ton, it takes forever to absorb, and it leaves skin very dry and flaky. burns a ton when you put it on right after BP and stains shirts and white towels. I have switched to Cetaphil. Dan is usually great about this stuff, so I hope we have a solution in the coming weeks.
