Pros:

cheap I guess

Cons:

Made my break outs worse

Made my break outs worse, but very gradually. a year later my acne went from mild to moderate/severe. It happened gradually so I didn't realize it was the cause at first .. But I quit using it and 3 months later my skin is back to normal, very mild acne almost none existent. .. only I have very minor scaring now. I don't recommend it

Pros:

Fantastic Moisturizer, cheap, works very well.

Cons:

Small bottle, but the price justifies it.

Fantastic product, highly recommended. makes skin look better just by being moisturized. I feel that when I use this, my skin does not feel the need to create as much oil as with other acne medications, so new breakouts and such are very minimal.

crappy product.
So my skin type is very oily but also flaky, a really gross combo IMO. I get pretty much all types of acne; tons of blackheads, many whiteheads, cysts on the rare occassion. This moisturizer didn't make me breakout anymore than I already do but it didn't help either. At first when applied it feels hydrating, but it dries up quickly. If you don't have flaky/dry skin, then this might be nice to help rid of whiteheads without excessively drying out your skin. Otherwise it kinda sucks. Also if you use more than the tiniest amount of it or apply any makeup product on top, it peels off in little filmy white chunks. Just gross, but you get what you pay for I guess.

Try using Noxema. You can find it at Walmart. Great for sensitive skin.

Dried out my skin, made my chin acne worse
This product dried out my skin. It also has this chemically scent which I'm not a fan of. I bought it because i needed a moisturizer. I had bumps on my chin, the next day they were inflamed and red, some with heads. I wouldn't recommend this unless they reformulate it and maybe add in some spf for daily use. It's not great for people with sensitive skin either since it can be irritating. I have moderately sensitive skin.

God-Like Formula
I seen many reviews , by the looks of it you have used it the wrong way , i've used this only during winter and spring which is the time of year when it breaks out , i pop my pimples and gush all the blood out , then i use a clean & clear daily scrub wash and dry myself with a clean new towel after that i apply this dual action moisturisier to decrease the damage and redness , it also prevents breakouts but its a diffrent story during the summer , i use a totally diffrent cream , hope this helps , also excercise , wash and drink plenty of water .

Pros:

lightweight/doesnt feel heavy, makes my face smooth, slightly moisturizes

Cons:

Makes my skin read, burns, tingles, smells weird, small bottle, expensive, makes me break out in pimples more often, doesn't blend into face well

i have very dry sensitive skin, so i think this product is more for someone with oily or combination skin that isn't sensitive. it's hard for me to find products that work, but i would recommend this to someone with flaky skin

Pros:

- Doesn't leave face shiny
- Feel it working
- Actual moisturizes AND treats acne
- Bottle lasts for a long time if used 2x a day

Cons:

- Some redness/irritation at beginning of use (very small amount)

This is a fantastic product as it combines two very useful actions into one cream! However, this cannot be used by itself as a acne treatment, it's meant to supplement/aid with other acne treatments. I have had a bottle for 9 months now and still have some left over after using it 2x a day. Great product, and would recommend to anyone!

Pros:

Keeps skin oil free all day
Doesn't dry skin or make it tight and shiney

Cons:

To much use can annoy skin (Only use in morning after u wash face, and at night after shower)

This is literally the only moisterizer I can use. I have really oily skin without treatment and this lotion helps so much. I have tried others and they don't do the trick. I use this stuff religiously. N believe me I have tried a thousand others and always come back to this. Its really gentle and does what it says its gonna do. Two little pulps about a pea size will last you all day. Its not a miriacle but this lotion combined with the clean and clear foam face wash is gentle and stops any acne from irritation. You really have to use these products, not pick at your face, and avoid touching ur face at all cost... for your skin to clear. I might not reccomend it for dry skin because it does tingle after you put it on. But for oily skin that just gets so oily you have to was 5 times a day just to not be shiney this stuff is a miracle.
