Pros:

Cheap
Get a lot out of the bottle

Cons:

Caused me to have breakouts
Leaves skin very oily
Not good for face at all

This is a cheap over the counter moisturizer but I would not recommend it for people that will be using it for their face. I used it as part of a regiment I started before my products from Daniel Kern got here. My face started to break out horribly, my face got small tiny red pimples everywhere some actually got real big. As soon as I removed it and didn't moisturize my face got extremely better. It was a little dry till I got my acne.org moisturizer but it healed quite fast.

Pros:

Soothing
Gets rid of dry skin
Promotes healing
Doesn't break me out

Cons:

Makes skin oily
Isn't a good base for makeup
No SPF

My skin reacted badly to an aloe vera gel leaving me with dry, itchy, spotty skin. After using this moisturiser, my skin is well hydrated and spots have reduced significantly. However I can only use it if i'm staying at home or at night because I find it to be very greasy.

Pros:

Big bottle for little price
Got rid of my extremely dry skin within days
No smelly fragrance
Didn't leave my already oily skin feeling even more oily

Cons:

A little goes a long way (I learned the hard way)

I had extreme irritation on my skin from Acne Free. It was so sensitive it hurt to be in sunlight or put any sort of lotion on it. This was recommended by a friend and since I already have oily skin I was hesitant because I didn't want my face to be an oil slick but I knew I needed to find something to help my dry spots. Within a couple of days of using the lotion my dry spots started clearing up. By day 3 they were nearly invisible and considering they were swollen, bright red, and peeling this was amazing. I am hooked on this stuff! It didn't leave my skin any more oily and my skin looks smoother and more refined. Plus my acne is clearing! It's amazing!!

Pros:

good for winter in dry climates
good for dry skin other than face

Cons:

makes my face break out

I used this at night for a loooong time at the recommendation of my dermatologist, because I was on some pretty harsh topical products. It worked really well, even when I went off those products. I used to live in a drier climate, but recently moved to a more humid one and my face went crazy. I tried all sorts of different things, but to no avail. Then, by chance I ran out of this lotion and had to use my morning moisturizer at nighttime as well for a few days - and all of a sudden my acne started clearing up. I thought it might be a coincidence so when I bought more I used it at night again, and sure enough in a couple days I had more zits pop up. So even though it says it won't cause acne, for me it seems that it did. I have combination/oily/sensitive skin, and I think living in a humid climate, this is just too much for me. I still love it as a body lotion though, especially on my legs after shaving. So I recommend this, but not for the face!

Pros:

For dry skin

Cons:

Very Greasy, made me have break outs

For me, it didn't work. I have oily skin, and my face is acne prone. I tried using it for a week, and sadly, I had break outs. It's good for the body, but I wouldn't recommend it for the face, especially those who have sensitive skin like me.

Pros:

Gets rid of flakes
Gets rid of burning feeling
Gets rid of tightness

Cons:

Leaves skin looking greasy
Doesn't last as long as i'd like

My dermatologist told me to buy this to combat the dryness and peeling of a benzoyl peroxide wash. My skin starts to flake again at last period of school but other than that it works really good.

Pros:

Light

Cons:

Runs out quickly.

This is a really good day moisturiser, and does not leave you looking oily (unlike the cream version). The only downside I can think of is that it runs out suprisingly fast (faster than both the cleanser and cream, which I both use) and so is less value for money than those two. Otherwise it is a good lotion, and does what it promises to do. I do not break out when using this product.
