Excellent moisturizer

Pros:

This moisturizer feels good on the skin. It is light, so it doesn't feel heavy on your face. It is not shiny or greasy, and gives your skin a good color or glow.
Nice feel, nice look. Definitely will NOT break you out.
Lightweight and soothing to the skin.

Cons:

Sometimes in the

I'm updating my previous review. This is the best moisturizer on the market, bar none. And despite what some other grumpy reviewers say, it far superior to Dan's old moisturizer (which was last available three years ago, so give it up already). The licorice root extract found in this product is very calming and soothing to the skin. The moisturizer goes on light and when it dries you quickly forget you have anything on your very face. It's very moisturizing and soothing. In the dead of winter, I find that occasionally I still have flakes, so sometimes I mix this at night with jojoba oil. That solves the problem. Also, if you think this leaves a shine, just do what you should do with all moisturizing products. Twenty minutes after application, gently pat your face with a paper towel. Shiny look gone. I get angered by a few of the poor reviews here, because this is truly an amazing product. Try it.

Pros:

-Lightweight
-Soothing/Calming
-Non-Irritating
-Very Hydrating

Cons:

Mild Scent

Before this I was using Cetaphil's moisturizer and although it hydrated my skin fairly well, it always felt thick and It made my skin feel tight and stiff after using it. Besides the fact that it always stung and burned after I applied after the BP. Dan's new moisturizer is amazing! It is lightweight and very hydrating, doesn't sting or burn, and doesn't make my face feel tight or stiff, but rather soft, smooth, and normal. The smell is very mild and I can't really even notice it. I am careful when applying it so as to not get it on my clothes since I have read that the yellow tint of this product can stain clothing. I couldn't be happier with this product! By far the best moisturizer I've used. Way to go Dan, you're awesome!

Pros:

Absorbs extremely well, no shine, soothing effect on skin, drastically reduced my redness.

Cons:

None

I absolutely LOVE the new moisturizer. Though the old moisturizer was did a great job in eliminating flakes and keeping skin moisturized, it burned and left my skin feeling raw and shiny, consequently adding to irritation. However, this new moisturizer completely takes away redness from my skin (especially when i put a bit of AHA+ with it) and absorbs extremely well. My skin really absorbs the moisturizer well and there are no feelings of oiliness, burning, or any sort of even minor irritation. This new moisturizer has completely reinvigorated my confidence in the regimen and after 2 month of redness from the moisturizer, I feel I can stick with the new moisturizer-powered regimen indefinitely. Fantastic job Dan!

Pros:

-doesn't leave skin oily
-skin feels smooth after breakouts
-no stinging

Cons:

-NONE!

I love this moisturizer. I used the old formula and even though it left my skin looking oily, it helped to prevent further breakouts. While waiting for this new moisturizer to be shipped to me, I ran out and had a bad breakout for a couple of days. Within two days of using this new moisturizer, not only was my breakout under control, but my acne has almost disappeared completely, which hasn't happened in years.

Pros:

Goes on as easily as the original

Cons:

Leaves skin with yellow tint
Stains white clothing yellow
Have to use a lot more than the original
More expensive initially, not to mention you use more so you need to buy more frequently ($$$)

Not as good as the original. Just when I found a moisturizer that worked wonders (i.e., Dan's original), he changes the formula to some yellow junk that is more expensive, tints skin and clothing, and is more expensive. I think he should give the option to buy the new stuff or the old stuff. I wasted $30 (including shipping) for this new yellow junk. I need to find a new moisturizer...again. Very frustrating!

Pros:

Moisturizes very well. Dries fast. Matte finish. Doesn't smell bad. Yellow makes it look exclusive.

Cons:

Two pumps really needed or is Dan just extorting us? White streaking before drying can be intimidating at first. Price is too expensive for a month supply.

Best face moisturizer I ever used. Much better than the old oily one.

Pros:

- Softer on the skin than the previous moisturizer
- Calming effect
- Feels good when absorbed on skin

Cons:

- Yellow residue can stain white clothing
- Sometimes still stings when putting on

I like this moisturizer much better than the previous one for the many reasons every one else is stating; less irritation, calming, feels good on the skin, etc. Only real drawback is that it leaves a yellow stain around my white collared t shirts where it comes in to contact with my neck. I washed one shirt and it still seems a little of the residue stayed. If there was a way to make it not yellow in color, it would be perfect. Cheers!

Pros:

-Doesn't leave skin too oily
-Calms skin
-Spreads easily and doesn't take too long to absorb.

Cons:

-None so far.

This moisturizer works wonders for me compared to the old one. In just a week, my skin is looking much clearer and less irritated. The old moisturizer tended to make my skin look oily throughout the day, and the new one does a good job of eliminating flakes but still doesn't look so oily. I am very glad I bought this.
