Pros:

-Has AHA in it
-Smells nice
-Moisturizes your skin

Cons:

-Not enough AHA in the product which might not help clear up your skin completely
-Not enough sun protection in it
-Stings upon application of zits & near eyes. Makes your face look shiny

I bought this initially for the sun protection and the added benefits of AHA. This doesn't have enough AHA for some people so it might be not be as affective as an 6%/8%/10% AHA product. I think it smells nice. It does moisturize but doesn't leave me feeling greasy. The reason that is look oily on your skin is because it's got small glitter particles in the lotion. Put some on top of your hand and blend it in and you can see the glitter particles. I wear primer over it to make my face look less greasy and a dusting of powder and it works for me. I will likely use my bottle up but only use it in the winter because it doesn't have enough SPF protection in it and AHA makes your skin light sensitive. You need a minumum SPF 30 for protection-especially in the summer. If you try layering a higher SPF over top of it, the sunscreen that you add just balls up on the skin. Not a bad product if you have light to moderate acne and scarring. I have moved on to a higher AHA and

Pros:

My 60-year old skin is on the dry side. This miracle-working lotion evens out lines, keeps my skin glowing and smooth. I use 3 pumps, morning and night. Use it under Healthy Defense light tint during the day.

Cons:

none

Because I don't have acne or oily skin, I can't respond to some of the reviewers' comments about it being too oily. I love this stuff. I only use it during the day in the summer months because of sensitivity to sunlight. HIGHLY recommend!! I have used this for 10 years.

Pros:

The tiny bottle lasts for quite a while, and it doesn't take you ages to rub it in.

Cons:

a wee bit stingy but nothing too bad and you can't get it in the U.K :(

I've been using the night one for the last 5 months and I can honestly say I see a huge improvement in my skin in comparison to what it used to look like. The doctor said that my acne had caused 'significant' scarring and that they would never go away. So I read about this product and bought it when I was on holiday in America. Obviously you can still see my scars a tiny bit if you look up close but the red marks have lightened dramatically since I've started using this!

Pros:

Works quickly and effectively to noticeably clear and brighten skin

Includes SPF so works well to protect skin

Cons:

Possibly creates a dependency, meaning you need to continue use to avoid quickly breaking out? Also, tolerance may increase, meaning you must use more of the product over time to achieve consistent results. Can cause oiliness.

I have had "yo-yo" skin my whole life, and tried many treatments. This has, by far, been the most effective. My skin is brighter and even small hints of pimples have disappeared. It has also helped minimize the appearence of blackheads. When I first started using this, I got compliments both from strangers and family telling me how great I looked! I began by using this twice a day and have now tapered off to only once a day, just because it causes my skin to become really greasy. You can play with the amount used and frequency if this is also a problem for you. Overall - I'm VERY happy to have found this and recommend it to everyone I know!

Pros:

Amazing! Works fast and smells nice! Miracle!

Cons:

Can sting a bit at first.

I dunno what the folks over Neutrogena are doing to make such a good product but let me tell you something, it freaking works. I was starting school in a few weeks and I had a red mark right on my forhead. I saw this at CVS and thought I might as well try it. W/in a few days of nightly application the redness was gone and my skin had a great tone to it. A miracle product if I have ever seen one and something I HIGHLY recommend. P.S. I have tried nearly every cure in the book for redness, none, I repeat, NONE have worked like this product has.

Pros:

Evens out skin tone
Rids scars and blemishes
One 2.5 fl oz bottle lasts over 15 weeks (when applied twice a day).

Cons:

The product stings for a minute, causing red and itchy skin.
I'm an oily mess in the morning.

I experienced severe acne that left behind some serious blemishes and scars. It is 15 weeks today that I have been using this product day and night. So far the result is clearer and brighter skin. I still break out moderately but my husband has noticed that the older blemishes are beginning to diminish... some disappearing faster than others. A small price to pay for refined, luminous, more healthier-looking skin.

Pros:

non-greasy, absorbs well, good price, smells nice and goes well under makeup

Cons:

warning: it will sting like holy hell if you put it on an open zit...I also wish it had better spf protection

I had a huge breakout in Feb 2008 from going off my birth control pill. In March I started back on Stieva-A gel 0.025% at night and THIS during the day and 1 or 2 nights/week. REALLY HELPED. I'm VERY pale so if I have a zit it leaves a red mark no matter what....I would say my red marks have faded about 50%+ and my skin is smoother and softer and less red. Give it a try!!!

i have oily skin. this product makes my skin even oilier after i apply at but it really really helps with acne and i'm starting to see it help with sun damage. i currently use proactiv and i just apply this product for overnight. i would never use it during the day because it makes my face look like an oil slick. i wake up with clearer and brighter skin.

Pros:

I have been using this product for over five years. I'm 61 and my skin looks much younger. Everyone asks me what I use. I use it for day under my make up and at night, because my face is dry. It also keeps my face from breaking out.

Cons:

The sting.

Since I've been using this product successfully for over 5 years, I will keep using it. It's much less expensive than other products I've tried and I find it works better for me.
