Pros:

this product is great! just bought it yesterday, and my face already feels great, and the acne is clearing up too! if your using the BP, this will help with the dry flakes.
the SPF is good too! gotta protect your skin from the harmful sun.

Cons:

i don't have any cons. but when you apply it, and if you have acne, you will feel like a shock on the pimple. i thinks it's the alpha hydroxy. but your face will get use to it.

just buy it, if your using the BP, and if no other moisturizer is working, this stuff will!

Pros:

Sunscreen version: Is a moisturizer, AHA treatment, and sunscreen in one. Bottle design protects contents well. Relatively easy to find the sunscreen version.

Cons:

After using this for 5 years 2x a day, I became very sensitive to the sunscreens & now can't use those 2 sunscreens on my face (in any product). I moved to the "Night" version for 3 yrs & am horrified to learn it has been discontinued (spring 2009).

Be careful of getting sensitized to the 2 sunscreens that are in the product (those common sunscreen ingredients have come in for criticism in recent years). The sunscreens can make this product a bit heavy-feeling and smelly, which is why I liked the night product so much better. I am not sure why they discontinued the night product this spring (2009). It just suddenly vanished off the shelves and off the websites (even this one) with no explanation. I must now try a different AHA product, and am considering Alpha Hydrox. I've used Neutrogena Healthy Skin lotion for over 10 years and was very happy with it (aside from becoming sensitized to the sunscreens in the daytime version), so this is a big change for me.

Pros:

improves overall texture of skin. Helps fade dark spots and acne. Has sunscreen.

Cons:

None

I am glad I tried this moisturizer/treatment. I use it every time after I wash my face and also apply to my neck. I am 40 years old and still was getting acne. Have used this for 2 years after washing with Purpose liquid face soap, and the two products have my skin looking the best it has ever!! I have sensitive skin, and my skin can tolerate this product easily. I noticed a difference after the first week.

Pros:

The ratings I'm giving are based on the non-sunscreen formula.

Cons:

Sunscreen. I'm allergic.

I've used Healthyskin for years - only over-the-counter moisterizer I don't have allergic reaction to - formula was changed and now I can't find it on the shelf without sunscreen in it. I've found the original formula in web drud stores now being called "night formula". It's not always convenient to buy on-line when you're bottle is almost out. Everyone can't tolerate sunscreen on their facial skin!

Pros:

It works!!!
Smooths and clears skin
Evens out skin tone
Reduces time it takes for pimples to heal

Cons:

Burns at first (a lot the first couple of days, then not so much)
If you use too much, it will make your face really oily

I highly recommend this product. A couple of months ago, I stopped using Proactiv. It just wasn't working for me anymore. I was experiencing more breakouts, dryness, and an uneven skin tone. To add to my frustration, I started getting cysts, too. I started doing research and read the reviews for this product. I was a bit scared to try a new moisturizer because every other moisturizer I had tried in the past made me break out. Not this one! Yay! I also bought the Anti-wrinkle, Anti-blemish face wash/cleanser (about $7.00 at Walmart). I have been using both products for just over two weeks now, and my face is really looking great! I will say that the moisturizer does sting for a few days when you first start using it - but that goes away by the end of the first week. Also, I only used it at night for two weeks, and then worked up to both day and night. You don't need much. A little goes a long way. Some people say it makes their skin too oily. At first, that happened to me, too. I tried using less product, and that made a huge difference. Bottom line... my acne was what I would consider moderate 2-1/2 weeks ago. Now it is very light.

Cons:

it burns, dryness and roughness on skin

so i started breaking out and i would spot treat a few areas with bp then after i would apply this stuff. it burns yes, first few days it did get rid of the redness i had from previous acne (which was about a yr ago.), but after few days of using this morning and night. my face started drying. It might have been due to the lemon and sugar scrub I used to exfoliate my face which might've intensified this product (because lemon also has AHA. But my face looks somewhat even but if you feel my skin, its not soft, its somewhat dry and coarse..or rough..point is.. its not smooth like it was before! So i stopped using this stuff last night, and will continue to monitor my skin.

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:

Smoothed out my acne prone skin and kept it clear. Not one new breakout since I began using it! Stings a little sometimes so apply lightly.

Cons:

A bit pricey but goes on sale frequently.

The best facial moisturizer I've ever used. Would not let anything else touch my face. Well worth the price.

Pros:

non

Cons:

-it burns badly
-left me with a terrible rash on cheeks
-smells bad
-overly drying but somehow still leaves your skin greasy

I had tried other Neutrogena lotions which worked fine but I wanted something with a sun screen and I was drawn in by the "promising effects". When I first tried it it burned so badly, but I thought I needed to get used to it so I continued. The stinging never went away. It left me with skin so dry that it would flake off in areas but it was somehow making my skin overly greasy, which I didn't even know was possible. Don't waste your time or money, this product is terrible.

Pros:

This product is the only one I've tried in its price range that consistently keeps my skin from breaking out.

My blackheads and enlarged pores also have diminished.

Cons:

The only con I can think of is that this is a Proctor & Gamble product and they test on animals. Therefore I have been looking for another AHA lotion that'll work as well as this one. Unfortunately, I haven't found one yet.

I have had really great luck with this product. It's so affordable, easily accessible for me, and since using it I have gotten lots of compliments on my skin.
