Pros:

A little goes a long way.
Smells okay.
Easy to use pump.

Cons:

Works primarily as a sunscreen - NOT a moisturizer.
Feels very abrasive, like a facial scrub.
Does not make your face "glow'.
Needs to be applied religiously to moisturize.

I usually love Clean & Clear products, the face washes and moisturizers have usually been good on my sensitive, acne prone skin. However, I will NOT buy this again. It is very abrasive, doesn't moisturize, and feels like a sunscreen, not a moisturizer. If you have sensitive or acne-prone skin, I would not recommend it, I would just use regular Clean & Clear moisturizer.

Pros:

-moisturizes well
-smells okay
-inexpensive
-spf 15

Cons:

-feels greasy
-made my face oily/shiny
-stung my face a little

This is a good moisturizer, but it did sting a little, especially if you put it on right after a drying cleanser. It made my face oily too, but it moisturizes well.

Pros:

Felt not too oily, and not too greasy
Cheap
Moisturises

Cons:

Felt abrasive when applied
Made skin appear oily after a few hours
Possibly caused more breakouts

I bought this product in the US because Australia does not have such a wide range. I HATE the fact that it has glitter in it and it hurts if it gets in your eyes. I have oily/combination skin and I had to dab my face during the day to take away excess oils. This is the second chance that I gave Clean; and Clear and I've been disappointed again :( I just use it at night now.

Pros:

The ONLY moisturizer that doesn't make my super dry sensitive skin break out.

Cons:

It's got some shimmer in it, but I've been using it for years and no one ever said it looked like I had glitter on my face.

I have really dry, sensitive acne prone skin and this is the only thing that has ever worked. I've even tried all the cetaphil moisturizers and those are supposed to be very gentle yet still made me break out. This stuff is really gentle. If your skin is like mine and you're about to give up on moisturizing you should give it a try. Plus it's so cheap!

Pros:

-It really does give a "glow"
-Light

Cons:

-It felt a bit weird because I could feel the glitter on my skin
-not great if you have oily skin

So, I just bought this product on the whim. I have a oily t-zone and this was probably not the best thing for it. In the morning it looks great, but my 3:00pm, I looked like I drowned my face in oil. If you have dry skin, and you need a pick-me-up, I would recommended this.

Pros:

light moisturizer
cheap

Cons:

I began to break out after using
HATE the shimmer in it

If you like shimmery, light moisturizer and don't have problems with acne, then get it, but don't if you break out easily

Pros:

Moisturizing

Cons:

Uses glitter to "brighten" your skin
The glitter makes it gritty
Stings, because of the grit

Honestly, this product would be great if it wasn't for the glitter. I've seen a lot of "brightening" products that just throw in a handful of glitter for a cheap and easy brightening affect. This was my first moisturizer. I bought it about a year ago (though the bottle looks different from the one in the picture). I liked it for awhile. It wasn't gritty at first, and I liked how hydrating it was (though, again, this was my first moisturizer. I didn't have anything to compare it to) Then, one day, I looked at my hand and saw tiny specks of gold glitter ALL over my fingers. My reaction: o-O I knew I hadn't been messing with anything that had glitter in it. The next morning when applying my moisturizer, I decided to look at my fingers after I had put it on. Sure enough, there was glitter. I stopped using it as soon as I got another moisturizer, with the sentiment "YOU LIED TO ME!" in my mind. xD After running out of that moisturizer a few months later, I shook it up and tried using it again. Sure, it had glitter in it, but it was still a moisturizer. I've been using it as an emergency alternative ever since. After switching, I noticed the gritty feeling, which can sting if you've just used a scrub or an exfoliater. It's not the best, but it's good enough to keep on hand when in an emergency. I still think "YOU LIED TO ME," whenever I use it, though.

WARNING: FORMULA HAS CHANGED!!!!!

I bought this moisturizer when it came out 4-5 years ago, it is amazing and I still have some left in the bottle. It was creamy, smooth, and maybe *slightly* shimmer but no glitter. It was perfect and I only had to use a little at a time around my nose and other dry areas! I don't get dry too often because it's humid where I live. !!!!!!!!!!!!HOWEVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I just purchased a new bottle and it is TOTALLY different. I checked the ingredients, they have changed completely! It is very thin and watery/greasy. It actually dried out my skin (top ingredients are all alcohol-based). IT IS GRITTY. Yes, it has glitter in it now. Simply awful. It may work for *some* people, but this new formula does not work for me! It is white, thin, and gritty. It used to be a pale, warm shade, creamy, and smooth. Why did they mess with such a perfect formula?

Pros:

It has spf in it.

Cons:

It left my skin looking overly shiny and oily. It also feels like it has a grainy texture so it's not really soft on the skin. It feels like a sunscreen too so kind of sticky.

I would buy the Clean and Clear and dual action moisturizer if you have combination skin like me.
