Acne.org : Moisturizer with Licochalcone (OLD)

I dont know what some people are talking about on here. I love this Moisturizer! It goes on Easy, doesnt make me breakout, its not a thick moisturizer so thats a plus. It also absorbs quicky. I only use a Pea size amount. That includes on my whole face and neck. Maybe some people are using too much and caking it on. IDK lol All i know is this stuff is awesome for me. I use it every morning after im done washing my face with cetaphil anti-bacterial soap. "Bottom Line" Its a comfortable Moisturizer.

I was excited that Dan was putting out a new formula but I've tried this for three months and I've found that I can only use it at night. It is too greasy for day time use and the yellow color is noticeable when I use a lot of it. I've used acne.org moisturizer since 2008 and now I'm having to change :(

This product has received a lot of flak lately, but my experience has been the opposite of what most people report. I have naturally dry skin, and this is the only moisturizer I've tried that can adequately prevent my skin from flaking. Additionally, it does NOT require a copious amount to work. I typically only use 1-2 pumps in the morning and 2-3 pumps at night, and this works quite well for me. In terms of moisturizing quality, it is top notch. Now, for the negatives: I hear a lot of people praise its "matte finish", yet this has not been my experience at all. It leaves my skin VERY shiny and oily. However, this is easily solved with a simple pat-down with a tissue before I leave for the day. Additionally, the "dries transparent" claim has not been true for me. There is a noticeable yellow tinge to my skin, and especially my eyebrows after applying this product. When I pat down with a tissue and then examine the tissue (even if I applied the moisturizer an hour or so earlier) the tissue is very yellow in color. However, all-in-all, the shiny finish is most likely due to the jojoba oil and the yellow tint is obviously due to the licorice root extract. I'm willing to bet that the jojoba oil is what combats my flaking so well, and the licorice root extract has shown in studies to be quite beneficial. So, in my opinion, the positive qualities of this product far outweigh the negatives.

Dan, please go back to the old formula :(

This is a great product that doesn't clog my pores and is helping in Dan's regemine to clear my acne. I love how its not greasy (cause i have enough of my own grease to spare :P) So i recomend it :)

This is the best moisturizer I have ever used. It is light, non-greasy and has no scent. I use it on my eye area, as well as on my hands at night (so my skin does not break out from my face contacting my hands while I sleep!). It is hands-down, pardon the pun, the best facial moisturizer I have found. Not sure why others do not like it. I have extremely sensitive skin and have no issues with it at all. Use as the directions state.

best moisturizer ever!

I love this moisturizer. I used the old formula and even though it left my skin looking oily, it helped to prevent further breakouts. While waiting for this new moisturizer to be shipped to me, I ran out and had a bad breakout for a couple of days. Within two days of using this new moisturizer, not only was my breakout under control, but my acne has almost disappeared completely, which hasn't happened in years.

This moisturizer works wonders for me compared to the old one. In just a week, my skin is looking much clearer and less irritated. The old moisturizer tended to make my skin look oily throughout the day, and the new one does a good job of eliminating flakes but still doesn't look so oily. I am very glad I bought this.

I?ve been using this for A LONG TIME and like others I have to make a review.  Dan, your regimen has been the only thing that?s ever cleared my acne!  The moisturizer was thin and absorbs well!  I wasn?t ever afraid to put more on.  This new bottle (bought last month) is white in color, thick like Cerave moisturizing cream, and it feels very heavy on my skin.  My skin feels like it has a layer of film on it and the product pills in the morning (balls up) when I wipe my finger across my face.  I?ve got horrible cystic acne in places I don?t normally have (my neck, middle of cheeks, by ears near hairline) and a red rash near my ears (see picture).  I only ever use the Regimen and the moisturizer is the only thing that?s different.  Also, has anyone else noticed the awful smell?  I tried to ignore it, but it smelled like liquid fermenting at the bottom of a trash can when I first opened it.  It makes me sad to see so many negative reviews, and even more sad to write one.  Dan!  Please change it back!  You?ve helped countless people struggling with acne MYSELF included!  I want to cry because this is the only thing that has worked for me and now I?m thinking about tossing it in the bin.
