Acne.org : Moisturizer with Licochalcone

This product is AS good or BETTER than any High-end product I have ever used. Better than Proactiv, Clinique, Murad, Estee Lauder, DDF, Dermalogica, Dr Brandt, Glytone, Phytomer. Basically all the moisturizers that cost up to 10x more than the Acne.org product. Dan should be praised for his commitment to extraordinary product formulation, at a fair price most all of us can afford. Thank you.

I have not used the old moisturizer so i cant compare it to this one but i understand how people hate this when they have used a product for so long then its changed. It moisturizes fine and im only on the regimen 16 days and that when your skin is really dry and it works fine for me. If you are new to the regimen dont let the bad reviews of this mosturizer put you off because its the old moisturizer users that do not like it. It will work fine for new users as your skin wont have to adjust from using the old one for years.

I used to use Dan's regimen years ago and it worked great. I recently started up again a few weeks ago. I was really worried that this moisturizer would be terrible from the reviews...but i dont know what people are talking about. First, the ingredients are excellently formulated, i dare you to find another moisturizer like this one. I use the recommened two pumps (the brand new bottle is 2 pumps, not 3), and at night I apply 6 drops of jojoba oil, in the morning I apply 2 to 4 depending on how dry my skin is. It feels great on my face, and the jojoba works like a charm. I feel like this moisturizer is helping my acne almost as much as the BP! Im so glad i trusted my instincts and tried this product. I think people are using too much BP too quickly, and blame the dryness on this moisturizer. Start slow and give it time! So far this moisturizer has been a heaven send. Maybe its the extra jojoba oil I add which makes it so good. Anyways, i highly recommend to anybody

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 have been searching for a moisturizer for years and have tried almost everything under the sun for my oily, sensitive, acne-prone skin. Basically, my skin exhibits "diva-like behavior." I either break out from it or it doesnt absorb so I end up looking like I just applied fryer grease to my face. Not the best look for anybody, especially a girl who wears makeup! I still cant believe how well this works--I almost didnt order it because I had given up on moisturizers entirely. Boy, would that have been the mistake of the year! Definitely give this moisturizer a try. I am so glad I did! Now I have a solid skin care regimen that my skin is happy with! :)

I've been using the entire acne.org line for about a month now, and I adore everything I've tried. I never used the original version of the moisturizer, but I'm quite amazed at the "bad press" the current one is getting. This, in conjunction with the bp, cleanser, aha and jojoba keeps the oil at bay and the new blemishes to a minimum. Great products for my adult/hormonal breakouts.

This moisturizer does its job. It requires 4-5 pumps to fully moisturize but it does what its supposed to do. My face feels like nothing has been put on it. My face feels soft and healthy. No flaking at all! Absorbs in about 5 minutes for me. Love it!

I haven't used the old moisturizer, so I don't have anything to compare to. But overall, I am thrilled with this whole system. I have had moderate acne for 20 years and this moisturizer is the only one I have EVER found that doesn't break me out. I have always had very oily skin, but the Acne.org BP treatment is very drying, and the moisturizer is perfect. My skin is not oily at all now.

As a little background, I am on Dan's Regimen so I use this moisturizer in conjunction with Dan's cleanser and benzoyl peroxide. I naturally have very oily (and acne-prone) skin, and I have darker skin so the yellow coloration that people have been complaining about has been imperceptible. With that in mind, I have been using this moisturizer for a month and it has been controlling my flakes fine. I have been using the full dosage and, though I get a few flakes in the last hour or so before my night shower, throughout the day any dryness is nonexistent. I apply a lot of the dosage on my chin and around my mouth and cheek bone, as that is the place that gets the driest for me. It's unfortunate that this moisturizer is getting such a bad rap, because it feels great when it goes on my skin. Actually, if I do not wait long enough (>15 minutes) after my BP application, the moisturizer creates a slight burning sensation (nothing as unbearable, to me, as mentioned in a few other reviews I've read on here), but if I allow the BP to soak in the moisturizer feels great! The consistency is runny enough to go over my skin nicely. Sometimes, when I am generous in my application, the moisturizer takes a while (perhaps <20 minutes) to fully absorb. This of course forces me to make sure I do my routine well before I leave my home, but I don't believe any perceptual greasiness or shininess persists throughout the day. I know that the moisturizer makes my skin feel great throughout the day. Also, I did not want to write this in the pros, because I don't know if it is because of the cleanser or benzoyl peroxide, but since starting the Regimen my skin has felt very smooth. I don't know if it is the moisturizer or not but I would not be surprised. While I wrote "price" as a con I realize that this is a very high-quality moisturizer. I would prefer it to be cheaper, but I feel as if Dan is by no means ripping me (a tight-budgeted college studen

I have been on the Regimen for about 2 years, and have been using the new moisturizer ever since it came out. My acne used to be moderately severe, but now it's quite light, and this moisturizer has been heavenly for the past few months. Honestly, it is much better than the original. I'm actually amazed by all the negative comments here...! The jojoba oil and licorice root extract in this new formula have really worked at calming my skin. I've found that, yes, it can sting, but this only occurs if I don't wait long enough between applying BP and moisturizer. I know that Dan says 15 mins. is enough, but if you wait 30-45 mins., the moisturizer really does not sting very much at all! I am left slightly red/irritated for maybe 5-10 mins, but after that my skin is hydrated, feels fresh, and although slightly oily, the tight feeling from the BP is completely gone! Once, I had to go back to what I had left of the old formula for a few weeks, and it was then that I realized the BP was not causing my redness... the old moisturizer was. Right when I put it on, it left me looking like a tomato for hours afterwards. This new formula does have a yellow tint, and maybe it's because my skin color has tones of yellow already, but once it sinks into the skin I doubt it would be that noticeable. The new moisturizer has never left me as embarrassed or ashamed of my redness as the old formula had. I remember being mortified when someone in class asked why my skin was bright orange (and no it wasn't from a tan, haha)! I honestly believe that this new formula is gentler and more effective for acne-prone skin when applied properly, especially after waiting long enough for your acne treatment to dry beforehand. I also use this moisturizer on my neck and hands, and I really have only positive things to say about it. As part of the Regimen, this moisturizer has definitely helped me get rid of my acne and get back my confidence.
