Pros:

makes my skin feel smooth, helps with breakouts, gets rid of flakies, nice light scent

Cons:

not quite enough moisture for winter

this product is my mainstay. I used it for two years, then decided it wasn't working well enough and tried AcneFree. MISTAKE!! The acnefree broke me out and gave my skin thickened, scaly, flaking patches and dark red/brown acne marks. I stopped that and started using cetaphil gentle cleanser and this moisturizer, and my skin has mostly cleared up in three days. My skin looks glowing and healthy again, and the acne marks have almost all disappeared. Some people have said that this makes them break out more, but I haven't had that problem. I love this stuff. note for readers - I'm a fair brunette caucasian with mildly sensitive skin and moderate acne. If this describes you too maybe this product won't make you break out either.

Pros:

Moisturizes well without leaving skin oily or shinny. Evens out skin tone very nicely. Smells nice.

Cons:

Expensive, can be too harsh at times. No SPF.

I've been dealing with mild to moderate acne for about 11 years now. Thanks to my dermatologist I get very few breakouts, so my acne is definitely well controlled. The one area where I've struggled is finding a good moisturizer. Most either don't provide enough moisture or leave me with a greasy feel and a shinny face. Also, this is wonderful in evening out skin tone. Although I'm not getting nearly as many pimples these days, the ones I do get tend to leave a mark. This helps to reduce the appearace of those friendly little reminders. That's one of the key benefits of this product - actually makes my skin appear to be healthy, not just pimple free. That's a huge and important difference. Sometimes the fact that this moisturizer is medicated is a problem as I have days when my skin is extra sensitive. For me, using topical rxs makes this product a less agreeable on certain days. But otherwise no complaints! They could lower the price though, jeez.

Pros:

I have very read cheeks and this actually blends my whole skin in and my cheeks to a lesser shade of red without make-up.

Cons:

Makes me skin feel tight and dry even though when I touch it it's soft.

Yes, I'll continue to buy it. I only use the bar and not the moisturizer because the bar does the same thing and I only paid $2.97 for it. I also buy the Aveeno Dry Skin bar for the same price to hydrate my skin.

Pros:

this product does even out skin tone and makes skin smooth and lessens redness. my face stays supple the whole day and my oily skin isn't a problem combined with the moisture.

Cons:

it is kind of expensive and it doesn't even cure acne bumps.

if you want less noticeable acne and an even skin tone you should definitely try this.

Pros:

it has Salicylic acid and is not irritable which is good for sensitive skin like mine. Smells nice

Cons:

no spf, which i believe u should use since this product has salicylic acid. didn't do much for me. kinda expensive. Feels a lil heavy, can't wear under makeup

this honestly didnt do much for my skin. It moisturizers ok and it is not irritable at all which is nice. Maybe this is better for people with light acne. I'm kinda mad it's not doing much for me cuz it's kinda expensive for such a small bottle.

Pros:

Moisturizes well and has reduced my acne slightly. Very happy to find a moisturizer with salicylic acid (.5%) which doesn't sting or dry out my skin.

Dispenser is very easy to use.

Cons:

No SPF protection. Hypoallergenic, but not fragrance-free. I like the scent, but it is a bit strong. It fades a few minutes after application.

I would recommend this moisturizer, if you're looking for something for oily skin. It feels goes on very easily and smoothly and feels light on my skin. I can apply and forget about it. I have not experienced any stinging or drying with this moisturizer, which is frequently a problem when using moisturizers targeted to oily complexions. The scent could be overwhelming if you're sensitive to fragrance.

Pros:

Smells nice. Moisturized really well.

Cons:

Didn't do a thing for my skin.

It didn't work to clear up my skin, but it did moisturize it very well. My skin wasn't greasy after the application, nor was it shinny. Guess I got lucky, haha. This may work for someone who has maybe one or two blemishes, but not someone who has a more severe case.
