Pros:

nice texture, goes on pretty darn matte for a moisturizer, CHEAP!, would be a good moisturizer for someone with very oily skin

Cons:

not very moisturizing for someone who uses large amounts of benzoyl peroxide or has dry skin, the 0.5% salicylic acid in it doesn't do very much besides dry your skin out

This was the moisturizer I used as my only topical treatment for several months between recovering from Proactiv and starting the regimen. It did as good of a job as Proactiv did at managing my acne, which isn't to say very much of course, but kind of impressive for a $5 drugstore moisturizer. I kept using it when I started Dan's regimen, though, which was a mistake because between my skin adjusting to large amounts of BP and the harsh winter weather at the time, my face was crying for help. It just wasn't doing the job. I was red and flaky and not very comfortable until I switched to another moisturizer. After I switched I was like, oh, THAT'S what real moisturizer feels like. That said, I do think this product is good for someone with a very oily skin type who is not trying to deal with flakiness, but just wants a basic moisturizer for whatever reason. It is pretty matte, it definitely has that going for it.

I did not like this moisturizer one bit, because my skin looked like a glazed donut after putting this on. My face broke out from all the oil.

Pros:

Leaves skin soft and moisturized.

Cons:

I have brown skin and this product doesn't work for me at all.

I've used this product for a few months now and I haven't noticed any changes. I use it after washing my face with Nivea for men but the pimples keep coming. DO NOT use this product while you're using another product that contains benzoyl peroxide.

Pros:

Smells great and definitely works, if and only if you wash your face before using! I can not stress this enough, wash your face because it cannot clean out pores itself. If you do, you will notice a difference OVERNIGHT, I promise.

Cons:

Does not work itself, you must wash first.

Use it if you are responsible and hygenic. It is not a miracle 6$ formula. But it does help.

Pros:

This moisturizer worked very well. It was oil free and left my skin feeling nice, and it helped prevent future breakouts.

Cons:

Nothing!!!

Use it! It works and it's a very nice (affordable) moisturizer. Try it, you'll see results!

Pros:

It gets rid of small zits over night and reduces the size of bigger ones. I like the cooling sensation after you put it on as well. Hmmm... easy to dispense because of the pump. AND it also doesn't make my skin look oily.

Cons:

The only negative thing I would have to say is that for being called "Clean & Clear Dual Action Moisturizer" it doesn't moisturize my skin thagt well. Also, somedays it doesn't seem to work for me.

This is a great product for people with mild acne, like myself. Give it a try. It's not pricey and the bottle lasts for ages. There are so many great things I have to say about it (as you can tell from this review) that it ummm... I don't know the word... overrides(?) the cons.

Pros:

Moisturizes without clogging the pores and slightly helping to prevent breakouts..

Cons:

None..

I have used all kinds of moisturizers, from Cetaphil to Eucerin and I have found that this is the only one that really helps get rid of the flakes..It also 'cools' the skin and feels soothing!

Pros:

The bottle will run out.

Cons:

Does not clear one pimple and made my skin oily.

I have been using this for about three months now and this is the worst moisturizer ever. I was hoping that it wouldn't make my skin greasy but it did. I wanted this to clear acne and it only seems as if the acne ( a few bumps here and there) just sits there until a white head comes along. I get so upset when using because like many other people I have oily skin when I use this product. I asked two friends that was also using this product and they said they had the same thing happen to them!

-a bit pricey compared to the price that other people paid.

this moisturiser is pretty good because it's very light! it's not like a deep moisturiser, and good for summer. i dont have any zits except the tiniest little ones, and it helps :) but i cant say much because i've only used it once
