Acne.org : Moisturizer with Licochalcone (OLD)

BRING BACK THE OLD MOISTURIZER! It was cheaper, was better at moisturizing, felt better on my skin. I really miss the old moisturizer. I wish Dan sold/offered both so people could choose what they wanted. Why only one choice? why not both? new moisturizer: doesn't live up to all the "hype".

I've been using the regimen for about a year now with great results. I was quite enthousiastic about the new moisturizer and did not believe all the negative reviews, but it really is a step back. In order to get the same results I have to use six full pumps which is way to much. Additional moisturizer has to be ordered which makes the regimen a lot more expensive. Besides these extra cost it also gave me these strange under the skin bumps which went away when I started using extra benzyol peroxide. The old moisturizer seemed to work on the acne too something which the new moisturizer seems to be lacking. If you can tolerate it I recommend using the AHA as a moisturizer. Gave me better results and far less is needed. Adding extra virgin olive oil to the moisturizer at night seems to work too.

I haven't had too much luck using the new version of the moisturizer, but I would be interested in trying the old. I have used new moisturizer for several months, with just "okay" results. I initially thought that I was just not using enough moisturizer, so I started using about 4 pumps, in addition to 3-4 drops of jojoba oil. My biggest problem with this is that all the oil from the moisturizer will actually start getting into my eyes toward the end of the day. I am a contact lenses wearer, and I couldn't figure out why my vision was getting so cloudy. I stopped wearing all my eye makeup and i narrowed it down to the moisturizer! I started using a different moisturizer and the problem has disappeared completely. I'm surprised that no one else has complained of this problem yet. Even when I was using massive quantities of the moisturizer along with AHA, I was never able to fully get rid of my dryness. I am currently in pursuit of a new moisturizer.

This product is by far much better than the previous moisturizer. Atleast I did not like it one but, then I started to USE MORE with some jojoba oil and it has quickly become my holy grail moisturizer. A lot of people have a problem with it being too water, shake the bottle before you pump it out and use more! Once you learn how to use it properly you will love it too!! (:

I would not recommend this product. Caused an allergic reaction, and it didn't absorb into the skin. After application I just felt as though there was a film over my skin; very heavy. Yet, I would still have dry skin...even after adding Jojoba Oil.

I like the previous formula much better. Please bring back your old formula and allow us to have an option.

this seems to be the only flaw is the system he should just bring back the old one "if it aint broke, don't try and fix it"

I had been on Dan's regimen for a few months and was 90 % clear. Like many of you I got really excited about the new moisturizer and decided to check it out. After about a week my face became very dry and sensitive to bp. The next week I had to start lessening the dosage of bp because my face was starting to burn. Eventually I had to stop the regimen all together because my face just could not handle it without the help of a good moisturizer. I have started the regimen again, just using pb over night, and my face is still extremely dry and flakey. I loved the old moisturizer. Please bring it back so I can go back to when my skin was first clear with the regimen.

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.

wish there was a middle ground between the new and old moisturizers. (ie. more emollient like the old one with some [but not so much!] licorice extract like the new one)
