Pros:

Amazingly moisturizing w/ NO greasiness or shine, my skin stays soft & smooth now (even if I skip a day), doesn't irritate sensitive skin, redness is gone, my acne is clearing up (w/o BP!), unscented, great light texture, water-based, hypoallergenic

Cons:

Not yet available everywhere. (Fortunately my local Walgreens carries the lotion, but not the cleanser or the cream.)

This stuff really is incredible. Although I like Dan's cleanser and BP gel, I was having unsatisfactory results with his moisturizer. No matter what I did, I could not get rid of the shine on my forehead and it caused me to continue to break out, even when treating with large amounts of BP Gel at night. I saw some reviews here for CeraVe, but I was skeptical, so I started looking around on the web. That did it for me! Everywhere I looked, from Amazon to [link removed], and even on support group sites for people with skin conditions like rosacea and eczema, nearly everyone praised this stuff. I found it at my local Walgreens for $12.99 (not bad, considering the size) so I decided to try it. It truly is amazing. Almost feels too light at first, but it actually moisturizes throughout the day and doesn't cause acne or shine. (In fact, I'm clearing up w/o BP!) Using it on my body even cleared up all my eczema patches! Now, my skin feels comfortable all the time. Seriously, try it!

Pros:

Excellent consistency, non-greasy upon drying, moisturizes very well

Cons:

Pricey maybe? But I feel it is worth it

Not sure how this lotion is not that popular yet, because it's by the far the best I've used to date. It feels much better than Cetaphil, and doesn't leave a greasy residue. Cetaphil also caused me to break out, this didn't. I would highly recommend it for anyone on Accutane or for those following Dan's regime

Pros:

Moisturizes really well
light, fragrance free
doesn't leave your face shiny

Cons:

nothing.

I am currently on accutane so my skin is all peely. I put this on at night and in the morning my face is flake free. It's not greasy unlike the cetaphil face lotion i used to use. It's also very light, it won't make your face shiny. I highly recommend it.

Pros:

Amazing stuff... I use Tazorac, which dries the skin like crazy. But after I started using this lotion, my skin no longer peels, or is dry. My face is soft, and has a nice natural glow.

Cons:

A little greasy.

A must buy if you use any of the retinoids.

Pros:

Very light moisturizer that absorbs well; my 2 yr old daughter's dr recommended it for eczema as well

Cons:

Burns quite a bit when I use it with the BP. Certain areas of my face get overly-dry with the BP - I have to apply CeraVe several times throughout the day on those areas because it provides such light moisture coverage

Good, light moisturizer; not necessarily good for someone with sensitive skin who is also using Benzoyl Peroxide
