Pros:

Moisturizes
SPF 15 cuts out that extra step in my regime
No breakouts using it, so far
Leaves my skin feeling/looking matte
Feels light under makeup

Cons:

It takes awhile to fully absorb in the skin before applying makeup
I didn't notice any difference in my pore size

My two requirements for moisturizer are that it must have SPF and must stop me from breaking out. This product is non-comedogenic and I like the matte look it offers. The claims about it changing your pore size are bunk, but otherwise get this for a good moisturizer with SPF.

Pros:

Sun protection, SPF 15
Somewhat softens the appearance of pores
Doesn't smell too bad

Cons:

Thick
Takes a VERY long time to absorb
Rather drying
Leaves a whitish-colored residue
Clogs pores
Horrible for combination skin

This stuff was terrible when I used it as my moisturizer for the Regimen. I think there might have been a chemical reaction with the benzoyl peroxide, because it caused my skin to peel. The more I applied, the worse my skin got - I was left with irritated skin and an embarrasing white residue, it was especially bad on my T-zone. Not good for oily or combination skin! If you're in a rush in the morning, don't bother even trying to put this stuff on - even if you rub it in, you will need quite a while for it to absorb. I will never buy this again. Also, it is THE WORST if you live in a humid climate or exercise often, because it is definitely not sweat-proof - it turns very white and "melts" off your face.

January 22, 2012

Pros:

The smell was ok
Somewhat moisturizing
Contains green tea and fruit extracts
Lightweight
Actually softens the appearence of my pores

Cons:

NONE

I was currently using proactiv but stopped because it was irritating my skin. I have oily skin and proactiv dried my face up (which is good for the oil control but now my face is dry). I used to use the morning glow moisturizer which i liked but it made me way to oily and greasy. I bought this and at first it was too lightweight but now that im off Proactiv its just right! Also Camellia Sinensis is in the ingredients which that is the actual term for green tea! Hope this helps!!
