Pros:

Keeps my skin not oily and usually if I don't use this product my face's is like shiny and if I rub my finger on any part of my face its like I rub my finger on butter.

Cons:

It slides of your finger very fast if you don't apply it quickly to your face.It really is pricey

It works if you have oily face like mine or shiny and if you don't have skin like that then is pointless using it. for me I mean it works it keeps your skin nice but after a while you kind of have to add more but it is pricey.But bottom line it does what it suppose to do.

Pros:

controls oil
easy to use
long lasting
smells nice (:

Cons:

none, as far as i'm concerned

I used this for 4 months, along with the rest of the proactive products and this was the only thing in my kit that i actually liked. I have combination skin, but in my t-zone area my face is VERY oily. I used this and my face was not oily at all. Even when i put makeup over it and wore it for a whole day it did not stop working.

Pros:

controls shine for a few hours
very lightweight
smells good

Cons:

kinda pricey, but worth it
stops working after while

I used this product along with the entire Proactiv system for several years. I have extremely oily skin, in fact, I've never seen anyone with skin oilier than mine. It's unbelievable. Sometimes, I drip oil. Okay, now with that in mind, I used this product to try to control my shine during the day. For the first month or two, it worked miraculously. It kept my face virtually shine-free for about 8 hours or so. But after a while, it just stopped working. So I stopped using it for several months, and then started up again hoping that my face was no longer "used to it." From that point on, I just used it on special occasions, when I was getting dressed up and wearing make-up. It works well. Just doesn't work forever.

Pros:

Controls oil

Cons:

Face is oily after a few hours

I apply it before i put makeup and it keeps my face with less oil production. But after a few hours I can feel the oil on my face and my foundation rubs off.

Pros:

This product works wonders. I live in a dry climate, but I have an oily face. If I use this, my face doesn't get shiny and it helps with break outs. I just put my make up on top of it and it's perfect.

Cons:

The price is a bit high for a poor college student like myself, but it's worth it if you have a lot of oil.

I definitely recommend trying it and seeing if it works on your skin. I go to Oregon and it helps, but I still get a greasy face after a while, but it still keeps it from happening right away. I highly recommend this product.

Pros:

It really helps my slight shine disappear

Cons:

I don't really like the fragrance...but a lot of other people do.

It's great. People that are usuing are not applying it to a clean face. The Directions say: On clean skin, apply a thin layer to entire face with fingertips. Allow to dry completely. For best results, use after Repairing Lotion. Not only does your face need to be clean but your HANDS also had to be clean too. So if you don't follow the directions specifically...DUH! It's not going to work silly!

Cons:

Cost

Besides for being ridiculously overpriced, it is an amazing product. Good fragrance and just went on along with the morning proactiv routine.
