Pros:

Good, consistent moisturizer. Non-comedogenic, and provides great consistency. Doesn't leave white streaks if rubbed in well.

Cons:

They changed their suncreen ingrediant to meradimate. I am allergic to meradimate. Because I'm allergic, I've been switching from one moistrizer to another. Not fun.

Before they ever used meradimate, things were fine, but now they switched the active ingrediant to one my skin hates. It's been one thing after another. So if you're thinking of using this product, do a skin patch test first. And do it twice! Allergies occur after the first time you use something.

Pros:

Light consistency, spreads easy, great moisturizing effects AND oil free, doesn't cause breakouts, very low price

Cons:

None until they changed the active ingredients (sunscreens) to something that I'm allergic to.

Thought I found the perfect moisturizer, until they changed their sunscreen agents from Meradimate & Titanium Dioxide to Octisalate & Oxybenzone. My face stung like crazy when I used my new bottle last night. I sure wish they'd put warnings on the labels of these "safe for sensitive skin" products when they change active ingredients! If not for that, I would definitely give it a 5.

Pros:

Nice to have an SPF
Quality Ingredients

Cons:

Unneccesary for night time
Sub-par moisturizing action

I'm a guy who needs quite a bit of moisturizer after showering and/or applying treatment. While this product did an adequate job, I need a product which allows me to put on a liberal amount without looking oily. If you don't need the SPF, pass on this product.

Pros:

Doesn't have a wierd smell. Hypoallergenic. SPF of course.

Cons:

Doesn't absorb well. It tends to ball up instead of smoothing over face. Makes skin white and clings to any zits you may have making them look just odd. May make other areas of skin look super greasy.

I believe there are much better moisturizers out there that offer alot of the same benefits.I'm disappointed by the results from such a trusted company.

SPF

White film, pools of oil on my face after a few hours, spreads like suntan lotion

Hard to spread evenly..leaves a film...makes me really oily.

Cons:

This lotion turned my skin orange so it looked like I was wearing greasy, weird makeup. It also stained my bed linens, as if I had put bleach on them. The collars on several expensive blouses/jackets are ruined because of the bleaching effect.

I would never recommend this product -and I have decided that I will never again visit the dermatologist who prescribed it and the products it reacted with. My orange face looked worse than the acne. This product needs to be taken off the shelves - and buyers should be given a refund + compensation for the garments and linens ruined.

Pros:

...none actually come to mind

Cons:

SPF. I really don't like SPF...i dont really care about it, i think i would like it better without it. To liquidyt. Stings when skin is dry, its white...i prefer tan moisturizers

Didn't hydrate my skin well enough. I was expecting a lot better..but it pretty much just stung my face. I went from olay to purpose becasue of the price, but so far i am majorly disappointed. This stuff agrivated my face so much. My face is already so dry from prescriptions...this just didn't help at all. If you have a very minor hydration problem and u burn easily...this might be ok for you.

Pros:

Works well.

Cons:

Poor consistency makes it a pain to work into skin without leaving white gunk on your face. Seems to change a strange color when exposed to a lot of sun.

Try something else.

Pros:

no pros, except perhaps availability (any drug store) and low cost.

Cons:

caused an itchy, red reaction on areas of my face. aside from that left a greasy, shiny film.

I think my allergic reaction was caused by the titanium dioxide, as I seem to break out in a rash from mineral foundation & sunscreens that contain TD.
