Caused more acne

Pros:

Morsturizes well

Cons:

Caused pimples
Takes a long time to absorb

I had been using some acne face washes and noticed that my skin was reaaally dried out. I had used the face wash and I thought this stuff would be pretty good, well it caused pimples in other areas....not cool. I would not use this if you have acne, it made my acne really red and it looked 10x worse. I thought it would be normal but it took forever to actually absorb.....not going to use again.

Not for everyone.
What can I say, I hate the stuff, feels horrible and totally clogs my pores! I have tried this a few times and every time within a few days my face is a mess. I don't feel like the skin drinks up this moisturiser either, it seems to sit on top in a greasy layer.

Pros:

-no fragrance

Cons:

-incredibly expensive
-super oily (yet doesn't moisturize)
-didn't moisturize

I think this would only be good for the body, not face. Especially not for people with combination oily skin. Would be good for sensitive skin.

Good??
This product seems good from an eyes point of view, but if you have dry and sensitive skin like me I recommend for you to not try this product because I makes your face red and irritated.

HATE
If this is the only thing people with sensitive skin and acne are supposed to use, I'd rather go without moisture. It looks terrible under makeup. It sits on top of your skin, softening nothing, soothing nothing.

Just bad
I used this for months thinking the acne I was getting was normal... I have moderate acne anyway but I don't get it on the cheek area on either side of the nose/under the eyes - this lotion gave me acne there! This was probably because it gave me blackheads (all over my face, but particularly on the aforementioned area) - since I've stopped using it I don't get any blackheads. By extension it also made my pores bigger. While it probably did prevent moisture loss, it doesn't add much moisture to your skin and is very greasy - it doesn't sink in and leaves a sheen on your face. I wouldn't recommend

makes you acne prone
I developed moderate acne which got well controlled on 5 months of oral antibiotics and topical cream. I just had scar left but my skin was too dry and I started using this moisturizer, dont know from where i got this severe acne. Its a complete waste of money and also harms you a lot.

Pros:

-NOTHING

Cons:

-made face even red
-caused the worst breakout ever
-caused me to feel itchy - allergic reaction???

Works for some, but along with the gentle cleanser these were the WORST products I have EVER used on my face! I usually give products away if I havent really used them and they havent suited my skin - this one I will not be giving to ANYONE straight into the dump they go!
