Pros:

lightweight, fragrance free and doesn't clog my pores

Cons:

Sometimes it isn't heavy enough for my skin and dry patches I get especially in the winter. I have somewhat oily skin and it somehow makes me feel dry.

I definately don't use this everyday because I feel like it doesn't moisurize my really rough dry patches. It is light weight which is a good thing when I have an outbreak. During these times it doesn't feel like it is contributing to my acne. I use this when I need to give my skin a break from heavy moisturizers.

Pros:

Moisturizes well and it is very light weight. I find it easy to use. Doesn't run when sweating. Moisturizes well on my oily/combination skin

Cons:

Leaves white stuff in beard and eyebrows. Nothing major since i remove with a bit of water before leaving.

This is the best moisturizer I've used. no smell, works great. Will recomend all to try. It is a decent price as well

Pros:

It's very light weight and has a nice feeling.

Cons:

Doesn't moisturize well. I wouldn't use it while using the regimen. No spf 15.

It's a nice light moisturizer but I stopped using it after I started the regimen. It didn't moisturize my skin well enough to keep up with the BP. I switched to Cetaphil daily moisturizer with spf 15.

most economical product that works decently well

i'm an asian male 30+ and i had mild acne for the past 7 years or so. i have been using this for the past 2 years or so.

the thing is, i stopped using it, and stopped using acne.org benzoyl peroxide treatment gel for 1 month because i was trying out la roche posay effaclar series, thought id give it a try. it was ok but after a month, my acne problem turned from mild to moderate/near severe! i had cystic acne on my chin and cheeks, it was crazy! i had no choice but to switch back to this moisturizer after washing my face + acne.org benzoyl peroxide treatment gel, aka the regimen but substitute the moisturizer with this one. i felt that acne.org moisturizer is good but i just got sick of the smell and the level of absorbent of it is not as good as Neutrogena's Oil-Free Moisture, Combination Skin moisturizer. it doesn't sting and it has a very neutral smell, nothing crazy, no perfumes and most importantly it is non-comedogenic.

i can't stress how important it is to be patient when it comes to treating your acne, i understand why a lot of people gave up, i almost gave up but i pulled it through and i honestly think that its because of this moisturizer + acne.org benzoyl peroxide for the past 4 weeks or so. most people will just quit and use other stuffs.

Pros:

-Good moisturizer
-Won't cause you to break out

Cons:

-Expensive for amount
-Can be a little greasy

I like it, but only use it when needed. It's an expensive moisturizer and you can go through it quickly if you are using it 2x/day.

Pros:

- Keeps my SUPER OILY skin from getting very oily
- Clean and sheer finish
- Affordable

Cons:

- NO SPF

This would have been my fave moistuizer that i would use for the rest of my life if it had SPF. I need to protect my skin from the sun at all times of the year which is why i dont use this outside anymore, but i really want to. Its amazing, its SO MATTE, that i hardly have to blot with this.

Pros:

Lightweight cream

Cons:

This irritated my skin immediately after I put it on. It started stinging and burning and I had to take it off, so I didn't get to see how moisturizing it would be at all.

Irritated my skin terribly! (I have sensitive skin, very dry in some parts and oily in others).

Pros:

An inexpensive foundation for people who'd liketo moisturize and protect from the sun.

Cons:

Dreadful result as moisturizer in Dan Kern's Regimen for me. After the moisturizer had time to dry, all locations with bp became huge flakes. My face also became more oily than usual, which is saying a lot. Not a pretty sight.

As a female whose T-zone shines in photographs taken with a flash or in the evenings, I never use this (or other Neutrogena Oil-Free type, tried them all) moisturizer without a separate "shine" control. It does rank high in the affordability, consistency (smooth), packaging, and fragrance (none) departments. Now, if you have a similar skin type as me, I'd suggest not using this for the regimen either, unless it's the only thing you can afford and you use it at night when no one else can see you. The huge flakes come from minimal bp; I don't want to think what it'll look like when the dosage is maximized.

Pros:

Very light and smoothes on easily. Not irritating at all to my sensitive skin.

Cons:

No SPF

This is the only moisturizer I have used that does not irritate my skin.
