Hives. Stings. New formula
The new formula gave me hives. I put it on my neck and face and woke up covered in hives . Also stings my face while applying. It was the only product I added into my routine so I know this is what caused it. 17051036743477885321393933756429.jpg

Bring back the old formula
Honestly, I don’t understand why they changed the formula of this. I’ve stopped using it for a year now as it aggravated my acne even more.

Disappointed! Bad moisturizer!
This thick white formulation is clogging on my pores, it is causing breakouts, pimples on my skin until I switch to a new moisturizer. My skin does not break out anymore with the new moisturizer. Very disappointed with Acne.org, why did you change the formulation for acne.org's moisturizer? I have been a loyal user for years but will not be repurchasing Acne.org's moisturiser anymore!

Please can you share what moisturizer worked for you. I am looking for a new moisturizer as this acne.org moisturizer no longer works for me. Dan bring back the old moisturizer.

It's obvious you're toxic, the majority are complaining how bad the new moisturizer has been. You must really have some mental issues.

Old Formula = Holy Grail
I am almost 33 and have been on the regimen since high school. I finally stopped wearing makeup on my face during COVID for good and was completely clear most of the time, finally, for what seemed to be the long haul. Then, I noticed the moisturizer became paler and paler each time I bought a new bottle, and thicker and thicker. I used to add drops of jojoba oil for extra moisturizing, and noticed the oil wouldn't mix in well. I absolutely hate the new formula and because of this I decided to go cold turkey in March and see if my skin could balance itself out since it had been doing so well since COVID. Almost 6 months in and my skin is broken out so bad, but I'm trying to push past it. If it doesn't get better on its own by the end of the year I am going to try a new routine, but it won't be from acne.org unless the old formula comes back. The old moisturizer formula was the holy grail of moisturizers. My skin looked so dewy and healthy. The new formula is so thick and doesn't absorb in, it just sits on top like a goopy paste and you can see white globs sitting on top of your skin from where it doesn't absorb in all the way. I. Hate. It. I used Vanicream Daily Facial Moisturizer for a little bit last fall, but didn't like it as much as the old formula so I switched back to the new formula hoping I could get used to it, but I just couldn't. It's terrible. Please change back to the old formula and I will buy your products again.

I loved this for years - but can't tolerate the new formula
I've used Acne.org moisturizer twice daily for 14 years. I assumed the new moisturizer would be fine, but something started breaking me out over the past few months and I hadn't changed my routine. I did all of the anti-acne behaviors I knew (clean pillowcases and towels) and tried changing my sunscreen and my cleanser, but nothing worked. The moisturizer was the last thing I suspected, the ingredients were the same (though the color and consistency changed) and I've used it forever. Lo and behold, when I finally stopped the acne.org moisturizer, the breakout disappeared. I'm not happy with my current moisturizer either, but at least my face is smooth and clear again. Please don't gaslight us saying it's something else we're doing that's causing the breakouts. I know it's not "supposed to", but user experience is saying it is affecting at least a handful of loyal long-time customers. I'm devastated.

Bring back the old formula please!
The new formula leaves my skin tight and dry. I've started breaking out again since using it. Has anyone found another moisturizer that compares to the old one?

Too gloppy. Where's the old formula
I'm bummed about this new formula. It's extremely gloppy, takes forever to rub in, and if I have any sort of stubble it just doesn't rub in. I'm constantly flakey and really dislike the experience of the new formula. Agree with so many others, why is it so hard to rub in? And so gloppy it's unpleasant.

I dont understand why they cant just keep the old formula(yellow one) in stock, so we can choose to buy instead of switch to a NEW one without noticing everybody, cant they just keep both options? Pls bring back the yellow one pls, people might like the new formula, thats fine, just produce both, so we could choose! Dan pls listen to our voice, or you will lose $ since people will stop buying the moisturiser! Im a 15 years user of your product, this moisturiser is too thick to absorb, takes 1/2 hour for 2 pumps to sink in, but end up not moisturised enough, then another 1/2 hour for another 2 pumps, I end up spending 1 hours for this new moisturiser! And it is GHOSTING! Making my face look WHITE!OMG!

Well because it's probably extremely expensive to try to maintain two products that are very similar......I find the new formula to be much better than the old yellow one.......I have not had ANY issues like so many on here.......I can see how a moisturizer may cause some irritation initially as the skin gets used to it.....or if there is a specific allergy.....But it's unlikely a moisturizer would cause true acne from deep within the skin.

You are the only person not having issues we have a bunch of complaints here so don't be the silly person on here. Let us voice our bad experiences as the old moisturizer works better and gave me a glow. Take your lies somewhere else.

Poor Cherry.......Start your own cosmetic line if you don't like it whiner.

Kenneth I see you have been paid to come here and lie. We still stand with our reviews. The new moisturizer is very bad and not for acne prone skin. Dan bring back the old moisturizer

Bring the old product back u are losing money
Ugh I beg you please bring the old moisturizer back. this one clogs ur pores so much. It is way too thick, heavy and yet it doesn’t moisturize properly. When you’re using benzoyl peroxide spot treatment you need the extra moisture. This does not offer it. I had to stop buying from here because the new moisturizer makes me break out. The yellow moisturizer was light and made your skin soft and glowy. Please just bring it back. My skin got so bad because this routine no longer works for me like it did - the only thing that changed is the moisturizer. Idk why people complained about the old one just because it was yellow. Now they aren’t happy with this one. I always liked the yellow one. Now I’m struggling to find a replacement and I haven’t shopped from here in ages because it just doesn’t work anymore. Sorry I’ll come back when u change the moisturizer.

Sorry you are having trouble-but it is very unlikely the moisturizer is clogging pores-it claims to be non-comedogenic.....Sometimes it takes time for skin to get used to new products so there could be some irritation. But this new formula is very similar so I would be surprised.....It works great for me but everyone is different........Hopefully you can find out if it's something else. One thing you have to remember is that the acne you see began forming anywhere from 30-90 days ago-so it can be difficult to determine why new breakouts occur.
July 14, 2023
Ken, you make it obvious that you comment for this company because you're all over this page trying to convince people who are having issues with a product, that they aren't having issues with a product. How many reviews I've just scrolled past seeing you, "it's highly unlikely it's the moisturizer"..... if we are ALL having issues with a CHANGE in a product, CLEARLY it's something to do with THE PRODUCT CHANGE. WTF is happening to this place??? (BTW if I'm wrong and you don't comment for this company, you should at least try and get paid for this bs you're doing)

No Starpower I am just a very satisfied customer......and I see plenty of good reviews too....But I love all the comments......Too funny!

Please bring back the old formula
The new moisturizer isn't working and it didn't moisturize my skin. My sister and I have used your products for 8yrs and it cleared our acne. But Dan this is a very bad formulation. This new one feels kinda thick, milky in a way, just like everyone is saying. Unfortunately it doesn't fully absorb into my skin after using the Benzoyl treatment, and once again skin is very flaky and drying. Can you please bring back the old moisturizer as you have a lot of complaints on the new one.
