Pros:

Invisible after application
Doesn't cause acne medication to rub off
Doesn't seem to encourage acne growth or make existing acne worse

Cons:

Need to use a ton of the stuff to keep your face hydrated

Works great, and unlike most of the other moisturizers I've tried, applying it doesn't cause acne medications already on your face to come off, provided that you don't rub very hard. The recommended dose, 2 pumps, takes a fairly long time to rub into the skin, though I've found that I can get away with 1 - 1.5 pumps, depending on how dry my skin feels. Best of all, using it doesn't seem to make my acne worse, so I can use the amount I want instead of being forced to guess how much I can get away with using. This moisturizer seems to be more acnegenic for some reviewers than for others, so it might be best to apply it with caution to start.

Pros:

Extremely fast absorption
Very light
Very easy to apply
Moisturizes well

Cons:

None in terms of the product itself...but the price is kind of steep due to shipping costs.

I don't know why so many people are bashing this product and asking for a new one. I held off on writing a review before I actually USED the product for a couple of weeks in order to actually provide a good review. This works flawlessly and as stated on the product. For those of you who are crying about how bad this product is - just switch. There's no need for Dan to bring back the old one.

Pros:

Significantly reduces oil and shine!!
Goes on easily
Feels cool and refreshing on
No scent

Cons:

If you apply it without the BP treatment it takes a lot longer to absorb into the skin

I'm still a little flaky from the treatment and so you need to use a lot of moisturizer but this stuff rocks!! Please don't ever change the formula!!
