Pros:

No smell

Cons:

Takes ages to dry
Does not work unless heaps is applied

I had high hopes for this product. However, I am very dissapointed with it and will not be buying it again. First off, it takes at least 4 pumps on the face for me to control all the flaking caused by the Cleanser and BP and this is just not economically viable for me, using 8 pumps each day.

Pros:

Lightweight
drys quickly
no odor
very hydrating

Cons:

When you use the product correctly there isn't anything negative to say!

I've had acne since I was a teenager and now well into adulthood I was desperate and given up the search to find something that would work for me. I've tried ProActive, Murid, Skin Id, nothing worked. I reluctantly decided to try the Regiman and at first nothing changed but I stuck to it and now I have BEAUTIFUL SKIN! The other day someone actually complimented me on how clear my skin looks...I was shocked! You know it works when other people notice!! I'm not one to write review but if you've given up hope I challenge you to try this product you will not be disappointed.

Pros:

Good price, nice to find a decent volume of product available in one package.

Cons:

The tint.

I hadnt even applied this product yet when I noticed a bit had squeezed its way out of the base of the pump, it was a funny color but I assumed it had darkened from drying out. After removing the cap to clean it I realized that the lotion itself actually IS that color. This is not good. Ill assume the tint is an unintended consequence of an ingredient that is deemed necessary for the effectiveness of the product, just the same, Im out. Would love to have a clean, simple moisturizer without all the herbal, homeopathic bells and whistles (i.e. Cetaphil). Love your other products, but I will not be perpetually worried about staining sheets, pillow cases, shirts and towels.

Pros:

Love it! The old moisturizer was creamier but stung, smelled bad, and couldn't go anywhere near my eyes. This glides on and absorbs quickly, I feel the jojoba helps keep my pores open, and my skin feels protected all day. As with the other regimen products, I seem to get by with far less than Dan recommends - 1/2 to 1 pump 2x a day. Also blends beautifully with sunscreen.

Cons:

The pump gets gross, and while it is very good at preventing dry skin if used daily, it isn't very soothing if my face is dry from upping BP or falling asleep without moisturizing.

I'm glad I tried it, and am going to keep using it! It isn't an all-purpose, though - I still keep aloe and Olay beauty fluid on hand for extra moisture and priming (the jojoba makes eye makeup slide right off.)

Pros:

Really calming and soothing
Even skin tone
No redness

Cons:

Not moisturizing
Flakes and skin shedding increased
Super expensive

I actually feel kinda bad. I know Dan was faithful in this stuff working. But it doesn't. Maybe us dry-skinned folks are dependent on glycerin after all. I didn't even use the full amount of this because I'm cheap, but even a single pump of this under my olay SPF moisturizer in the day made me flake like no tomorrow, it's like my skin shed extra dead skin, to the point it almost felt encased in a shell of dead skin. My skin was even and soothed alright, just shedding like facial dandruff. Always shedding. A waste of a good amount of money. Now I have no idea what I'm going to do with the rest =P

Pros:

Very moisturizing, incredibly soothing, pleasant smell, no watery/oily finish

Cons:

A little thicker, which really is a Pro for me

This new moisturizer may be a little less moisturizing than the last, but if used with two full pumps, as Dan suggested, works great. The previous moisturizer left me red, oily(enough that the excess was blotted off by me using a brown paper towel(which works well)), sticky, and even felt a little irritated. This New Moisturizer does none of the above. It does not feel like there is any product, either drying BP or oily moisturizer, on my face whatsoever. I must stress the calming aspect, which makes my skin not only look and keep clear, but healthy and radiant. I cannot recommend this enough. It makes my skin calm and really moisturized, not secretly dry and flaky under a film of red grease. In my opinion, the broken leg of the Regimen used to be the third step. This new product, I consider, is Dan's masterpiece. Thank you Dan

Too gloppy. Where's the old formula
I'm bummed about this new formula. It's extremely gloppy, takes forever to rub in, and if I have any sort of stubble it just doesn't rub in. I'm constantly flakey and really dislike the experience of the new formula. Agree with so many others, why is it so hard to rub in? And so gloppy it's unpleasant.

I dont understand why they cant just keep the old formula(yellow one) in stock, so we can choose to buy instead of switch to a NEW one without noticing everybody, cant they just keep both options? Pls bring back the yellow one pls, people might like the new formula, thats fine, just produce both, so we could choose! Dan pls listen to our voice, or you will lose $ since people will stop buying the moisturiser! Im a 15 years user of your product, this moisturiser is too thick to absorb, takes 1/2 hour for 2 pumps to sink in, but end up not moisturised enough, then another 1/2 hour for another 2 pumps, I end up spending 1 hours for this new moisturiser! And it is GHOSTING! Making my face look WHITE!OMG!

Well because it's probably extremely expensive to try to maintain two products that are very similar......I find the new formula to be much better than the old yellow one.......I have not had ANY issues like so many on here.......I can see how a moisturizer may cause some irritation initially as the skin gets used to it.....or if there is a specific allergy.....But it's unlikely a moisturizer would cause true acne from deep within the skin.

You are the only person not having issues we have a bunch of complaints here so don't be the silly person on here. Let us voice our bad experiences as the old moisturizer works better and gave me a glow. Take your lies somewhere else.

Please bring back the old formula
The new moisturizer isn't working and it didn't moisturize my skin. My sister and I have used your products for 8yrs and it cleared our acne. But Dan this is a very bad formulation. This new one feels kinda thick, milky in a way, just like everyone is saying. Unfortunately it doesn't fully absorb into my skin after using the Benzoyl treatment, and once again skin is very flaky and drying. Can you please bring back the old moisturizer as you have a lot of complaints on the new one.
