Pros:

Moisturizes my skin without feeling heavy or sticky. My skin feels extremely soft.

Cons:

Need a prescription

Love it! Use it daily. I haven't tried it on my face but it has definitely improved the overall texture of my skin. Originally got it to treat my sons eczema.

Pros:

This is absolutely the best moisturizer I've ever used on my face. Does clog pores or cause acne - actually helps to clear pores. My skin is smoother than it has ever been. I have also noticed a reduction in the oiliness of my skin.

Cons:

Stings & itches like crazy for the first couple weeks of use. Hang with it, because that does subside. Now only very minor stinging sensation that subsides very quickly after it's applied.

I used to use a Eucerin product that contained lactic acid that worked wonders. I was devasted when they quit making it. I'd been searching for another lactic acid product ever since, with no luck, until I stumbled upon this website. Hallelujah! LacHydrin is even better than my old favorite.

Pros:

greatly improved skin texture; skin a whole lot softer; doesn't irritate skin; helped with discoloration

Cons:

none

So far, this moisturizer has improved my skin so much. I can't recommend it enough. I don't use too much and it works like a charm. My skin has always been extremely sensitive and I love this stuff. It's fairly expensive for a bottle, but you get a lot for your money.

Pros:

i helped a lot ... never got oily skin from it, had a nice smell

Cons:

tingled a little bit for the first couple of minutes

it is worth it, but really it all depends on the skin type

Pros:

Oil-free, non-comedogenic, has lactic acid, fragrance free, large bottle, won't aggravate acne-prone skin.

Cons:

Turns skin a bit pink/red sometimes. Would probably be too strong for people with very sensitive skin.

I really like Lac-Hydrin Five. If your skin does well with AHA's or you just want a mild exfoliating moisturizer, this is a good one. A little tip about using this, wash your hands first and while they are still a bit wet squirt a few pea-sized blobs of LHF into your palm and rub your hands together, then apply to the face. This thins it out a bit and it goes on well. I use this moisturizer with Dan's regimen and it works very well.

Pros:

Amazing ability to soften skin, non-comodenic, AHA, great price. I also slather it on my heels, knees and elbows! Carried at Costco.

Cons:

Feels too greasy to use during the day here in South Florida. Therefore, I use it before bed just after applying my BP 2.5% solution. No sun protection.

As long as you can find a good day moisterizer with sun protection, this is great for bedtime. For day, I've been using Eucerin Q10 Day with 15 SFP.
