Pros:

Moisturizes well
Gives skin healthy-looking glow

I have been using this moisturizer (as part of the Regimen) for about 3 months now, and I have been very pleased with it. At first I was wary due to the negative reviews regarding the new formula, however it has worked fantastically for me. I love the healthy-looking glow it gives my skin and it greatly helps to reduce the dryness that comes along with benzoyl peroxide treatment. You do need to give the moisturizer an adequate amount of time to set and absorb -- your skin may appear yellow during this time. You may have to wait around 15 minutes for this, but in my opinion it is worth it. Bottom line -- I am very happy with this moisturizer and felt compelled to put in my positive review since there seem to be many complaining about the new formula. It is the best moisturizer I have found for me and I hope Dan continues it as it is.

Affordable price for such a high quality product

Great moisturizer whether you are or aren't on The Regimen. This is the only product I apply to my skin both morning and at night. It is amazing! Add some drops of jojoba oil for some extra hydration ;)

Pros:

Goes on smoothly, last a long time, doesn't clog pores.

Cons:

I need a little extra moisture. I wish I didn't need to supplement with jojoba oil, but oh well. It works. I mix with jojoba oil both morning and night. I usually apply 2 coats of moisturizer at night (few drops of oil mixed with lotion, let dry, then repeat. All flakiness has cleared up).

It works, but wish it was more moisturizing.

Pros:

Absorbs well, doesn't smell, keep my skin from being oily

Cons:

NONE

I was disappointed to see so many of you are having problems with the moisturizer. This is the first time I have placed a equal amount of moisturizer on my skin as BP. I really enjoy being able to use moisturizer with my skin routine instead of walking around red and flaky with big pimples all over.

Pros:

Light, non-greasy, and absorbs quickly. Evens skin tone. No stinging after BP application.

Cons:

Initial increase in flakiness - may require reapplication during the day.

I switched to this product after using Dan's previous moisturizer with the Regime. I have found this moisturizer to be a vast improvement over the last moisturizer for several reasons. It absorbs easily and quickly into my skin without leaving any greasy-residue. I have also noticed fewer pimples since using this moisturizer and I think it may be due to decreased irritation - this formula seems more gentle. It took my skin a while to get used to the transition and I experienced increased flakiness for a few weeks however that has completely diminished. When I do get pimples, this moisturizer seems to quickly calm them and reduce the redness and inflammation. I would recommend that you try this product along with the regime, I have never found a better moisturizer, acne.org or not!

Pros:

Moisturizes very well. Dries fast. Matte finish. Doesn't smell bad. Yellow makes it look exclusive.

Cons:

Two pumps really needed or is Dan just extorting us? White streaking before drying can be intimidating at first. Price is too expensive for a month supply.

Best face moisturizer I ever used. Much better than the old oily one.

Like the new formula
I like the new formula and the smell people are complaining about is licorice root isn’t it? Also the I would always be worried that the yellow color tinted my face so I’m glad it’s white now.. it takes a while to absorb completely so I use it as a night cream and a lighter gel like cream during the day

This is untrue. The white moisturizer is very bad. Do not buy it. Dan has to bring back the old yellow moisturizer. Period

Moisturizer

The change in the formula of the moisturizer was a great choice. No more yellow tone on my skin. The new one blends in perfectly on my skin. Keep up the good work. All your products are great.

It took some getting used to

I noticed the moisturizer was different. I thought maybe I got a weird batch and was frantically looking for info online, only to find out what happened in the reviews. It would've been a lot easier to try and adapt if the company had some transparency with it's customers, such as putting in pamphlets to explain the change, or at least writing an article online. I'm not sure if acne.org has a pr team.



At first I thought it burned but, I kept observing and kept using it and it's a fairly regular moisturizer, and still doesn't clog my pores, and there was no additional burning apart from that initial try, so it could've been mental. I noticed the slight difference in scent/color.



It's hard to say I wasn't attached to the old formula too. Technically speaking, the current moisturizer is still serving it's purpose from what I can tell.
