Pros:

Smooths and softens skin
Fragrance free

Cons:

Was hoping this product would work for me but unfortunately didnt moisturise my dry/sensitive skin enough and left my skin with that tight feeling all day. Disappointed.

Im sure it works for lots of you but my skin is very sensitive and dry and I need something that moisturises more and doesnt leave my skin feeling tight. Also, I am from the UK and paid a lot to have this shipped over and had to pay customs charges on top.

Pros:

Softens your skin.
Great eye makeup remover.

Cons:

Smells weird, yellow goopy, can't use it during the day on my oily skin because it will look very oily.

Don't have as many good things to say about this than the rest of the regimen products. If I put it on at night, it does soften my face, but my pillows end up with a sticky yellow layer. And I can't use it during the day on my overly oily skin, because then my face will look very very oily all day. I do use it as an eye makeup remover and it works very well, but then again so will most moisturizers.

Pros:

Non-greasy formula.
Absorbs well.
Little to no fragrance.
Very pleasant on the skin.

Cons:

Takes a while for the moisturiser to work.

My face dried up severely when I used BP. I would apply the moisturiser regularly, every 2 times a day. Sometimes, I would need a little more throughout the day because my skin was incredibly dry and flaky.

Pros:

Super cooling
Doesn't smell
very lightweight
invisible after it dries

Cons:

none

The old formula felt watery compared to the new formula, and wasn't as cooling as the new stuff. I even use it for sunburns, its better that aloe vera! This stuff helps for any kind of skin irritation, (itch, burns, redness, etc.) it's amazing. I've never used a more cooling moisturizer in my life. The yellow tint is not noticeable to me on my face either. After it dries, no one can tell i have anything on my face. By far the most important step in the treatment in my opinion.

Pros:

Moisturised my skin effectively

Cons:

Admittedly takes a while to absorb, but i've found that's the case with all half gentle moisturisers

moisturised my skin effectively after flakiness caused by treatment, can't fault it **One thing i will say to anyone buying from the UK as well as a fairly high shipping fee i had to the pay an extra £18 import tax + handling fees before i could get my product, leaving me short of around £70 for the mens kit.. it's lasted long and would definitely reccomend the regimen but it may be just as effective and a lot cheaper if alternative products available here are used**

Pros:

Doesn't clog pores
No shine or greasy feeling

Cons:

Need several applications for flakiness

I stayed away from this because of all the negative reviews and than finally decided to give it a try, and I'm glad I did. I have been on the hunt for a moisturizer for years. I have very oily skin and usually a few hours after applying any moisturizer I'm greasy. This one doesn't make me greasy at all and no shine! This a great moisturizer for anyone who has very oily skin. I gave it 4 stars because you need several applications for flakiness.

Pros:

-Non-comedogenic
-Helps with my flaking a lot better than other regimen recommended moisturizers

Cons:

-It burns when you first put it on
-It makes my vision cloudy/tired by the end of the day (I believe another reviewer mentioned the same problem)
-It makes my skin look very greasy
-Pricey

I have been following the regimen for a month now. I used Cetaphil as my moisturizer, but my flaking was out of control and I was concerned about some of its comedogenic ingredients. I decided to try the Acne.org moisturizer. Even though my flaking was mostly under control, I found the cons to outweigh the pros. I will be going back to Cetaphil for the time being and will start trying out other non-comedogenic moisturizers until I find one I really like.

Pros:

light, nongreasy, doesn't add shine, absorbs well, doesn't make me break out.

Cons:

None

This moisturizer is comfortable on my skin and doesn't have a greasy feel or shiny look. I use it under make up and it looks fine. I like how moisturized my skin is without looking greasy.
