Ok but makes my skin feel greasy
Type: Acne prone skin I use Ponds after I was my face. (I used this in the winter time when I have dry skin) Pros: does not clog my pores Cons: makes skin feel oily after I apply it. Skin still looks and feels a little tight after use

Moisturizing but greasy
I guess it does its job when applied generously. It has a scent that reminds me of baby powder too. I feel that my face looks quite oily after applying it.

Pros:

Moisturizes very well
Doesn't irritate my skin

Cons:

Can make your skin look a little greasy
MIGHT cause you to break out depending on how your skin reacts

I used to have moderate-severe acne and started using this with 5% bp and minocycline. It has kept me almost completely clear for the last year.

Pros:

-works extremely well
-feels fantastic
-reduces irritation
-lasts a really long time (a little goes a long way)

Cons:

-kind of greasy
-the smell, for some. doesn't bother me. it smells a bit like baby powder.
-contains isopropyl palmitate, which is a big no-no on the Regimen.

This stuff is great. I have combination/oily skin, and I thought this would be too much for me but it isn't. I use it as a night cream (I have an acne-fighting moisturizer for the daytime) and I would recommend it as such because it will tend to leave your face a little greasy. A little goes a very long way, so don't overdo it. Isopropyl palmitate is a big no-no on the Regimen but as long as you use this sparingly you should have no problem. I break out very easily and this has caused no problems. The smell might be a bit much for some but I like it. Definitely worth a shot.

Pros:

-got rid of my dry, flaky skin
-not very greasy when applied to dry skin
-does not leave skin feeling tight and dry like I've found a lot of moisturizers for dry skin do
-cost efficient
-lots of it in a jar
-a little goes a long way - you do not need much!

Cons:

-may not be good for combination skin, it feels like it would be extremely oily and greasy on normal to oily skin
-very scented, usually a thing to stay away from for dry and sensitive skin

Love it! Would definitely recommend it to someone with dry skin. However, if you have combination skin I would avoid it on area's that are not dry as it may be too greasy and leave your skin much too oily.

Pros:

*I was not flaky after using it.
*It's a REALLY good hand, elbow, and knee moisturizer.

Cons:

*Smells like baby powder (not favorable in my opinion)
*Doesn't absorb very well
*My skin feels greasy hours after I've applied it (still did not absorb)

I wasn't flaky after I used this, so I'll give it a couple stars for that. And, it has completely salvaged my dry, cracked, winter hands I get every time this year. Made my elbows and knees feel like a baby's bottom, too. I have oily skin. This product didn't absorb well. My skin felt greasy after I applied it and hours after I applied it. The texture is very creamy and sinks into my hands easily.. Just not my face. I will try it again to see if it may get better. I'll try it for a full week to see if there's any change and hopefully give you guys a more thorough review. Good luck, everyone:)

This moisturizes my skin and makes my flaky dry skin barely visible.I love this product!The others i have used clogged my pores,especially when my forehead is dry,and i have bangs.I would really recommend this to some one who has dry skin and acne.

Pros:

Cured my very dry skin quickly

I would recommend this moisturizer to anyone with very dry skin, or spots of dry skin. I always tend to get very dry skin during the winter, especially around my eyes and anywhere I use acne cream. This cream quickly healed my skin and kept it smooth throughout the winter.
