Acne.org : Moisturizer with Licochalcone

I was using the old moisturizer for about a year and was not satisfied with the stinging sensation I got. The fact it made my face look really oily bothered me too. When I switched to the new moisturizer, at first I felt it wasn't moisturizing enough and made my face feel tight. I had a ton of dry skin and flakes so i abandoned it and went back to Cetaphil. Well, a few months later, after reading some of the posts, I decided to give it another try, but this time I reduced the amount of BP (just 1 pump and used a ton of lotion (4 pumps and 10 drops of jojoba oil) at night. In the morning I would gently wash off the lotion and jojoba oil under the shower for no longer than 10 seconds without touching my face. I didn't use any cleanser, just water. After getting out of the shower I would very gently pat dry and then gently apply more lotion (1 pump) without the BP under it. I have been doing it this way for about a month now and the dryness and tightness has just about completely gone away. Also I have been able to keep the acne away. Luckily, 1 pump of BP is enough for me. Since I am using only 1 pump of the lotion in the morning, there is no shine whatsoever. The new lotion is actually very soothing and calming just like Dan says.

Short story: It moisturizes too much until it leaves my face oily and full of slick as if I didn't wash my face in the first place. Long story: I started and still am using The Regiment. Everything is good about it except the moisturizer. There's just something about that isn't right. Maybe I'm not using correctly but if I were to put too little, my skin flakes and peels like a snake. If I put too much, there is less flaking BUT my face feels no different as before I started The Regiment; as in it felt like my typical oily face without washing. And sometimes it actually causes pimples to return! It would be great if it wasn't so thick like an inch of make up and the ability to apply it gracefully especially into nooks and crannies too completely moisturize the whole face. It's just my own opinion but I feel that moisturizer should make your face refreshed and cooling and hydrated and not leaving your face feeling oily and slick.

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.

No other moisturizer is better than Dan's new formula. Every other moisturizer, even the old formula made me oily and shiny but this one doesn't. It's perfect!

I liked the old moisturizer much better. I love the regimen but I do not love this moisturizer it has made me go back a few steps in progress! When I first started the regimen, this moisturizer wasn't out and I was using the old moisturizer and the regimen made it so that I would get maybe one pimple per month! it was awesome. but after they switched and put this moisturizer in I've been getting 4 pimples a week and I was wondering why I kept breaking out. And then I figured out that it was this moisturizer! I wish they would put the old formula back.

I really liked the old stuff. I don't like how it leaves a gross feeling residue on my skin. I also use this to moisturize the skin under my short beard. The old stuff was a lot thinner and massaged in very nicely. This does not! I leaves an even worse sticky feeling on my beard. I really want to have the option to buy the old moisturizer or the new one. Don't just take the old one away all together! I honestly have no idea what i will buy once this is used up. It was nice to have found what i liked only to have it taken away! bring back the old one!

When I woke up this morning to smooth skin, just as I have the past week, I knew I had to write a review. I was apprehensive about receiving this new moisturizer because I'd heard so much negativity about it. "Doesn't take care of flakes!" some people declared. "Leaves my face tight!" others exclaimed. Well, I RESPECTFULLY DISAGREE! I have experienced absolutely ZERO flaking and tightness while using this moisturizer--and I only need to use one pump! My Juice moisturizer was too heavy and left my face oddly sticky in the morning and made my face look splotchy--I wouldn't dare use it during this day. This moisturizer is perfect for both night and day. Now you're probably saying to yourself, "No flaking? She probably lives in California!" In actuality I live in New York, and it's winter, and just three weeks ago my face was a flaky mess on Max Clarity! In addition, yes, this moisturize is yellow, and no, it hasn't stained any of my clothes or turned my face yellow. I still apply makeup under it. There was one day last week when I went running at night, with plans to do the night regimen afterwards during my shower. I sweated profusely on my face, and some of the moisturizer became unrubbed-in, if that makes sense, and showed up looking yellow above my eyebrow. Otherwise everything's been peachy--and did I mention I use this as an eye cream as well?

When I first started using the moisturizer, I liked it. It didn't burn like the original acne.org moisturizer did and it seemed to help control flakiness. However, it made my skin start to feel rough and dry. This moisturizer did not allow my skin to clear up and it actually started making me break out. My theory is that my skin does not like jojoba oil. So, I decided to switch to a different moisturizer after using this one for 4 weeks. After making the switch, after only two applications, my skin felt soft and it got dramatically clearer. This is my second time starting the acne.org regimen. I used it for about a year and a half before and my skin was near perfect. I decided to stop to see if my skin would stay clear on its own...it did NOT. The first time around my skin stopped breaking out within a month, this time my skin kept breaking out after at least four weeks on the regimen. Since switching to a different moisturizer I believe this acne.org moisturizer was hindering my skin's progress and making it worse. I love the treatment, though =) P.S. The price paid includes shipping and handling.

The old version was nice and worked fine. This version does not work at all. Please bring back the old version or upgrade this one.

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.
