Pros:

Great moisturizer, no fragrance. Goes on smooth. No oily or greesy residue like Cetaphil leaves.

Cons:

I can only find it at CVS - before that I had to have my pharmacist special order it.

Great product!!!! It was recommended by my derm 10+ years ago and I still use it and love it!!!

Pros:

great consistency, doesnt make my skin oily, no breakouts!

Cons:

No spf, but clear skin is worth staying out of the sun.

Wonderful all around. I switched to this from cetaphil and my skin cleared within a week! It keeps my skin soft and works well under makeup.

Pros:

Extremely gentle, non-fragrant

Cons:

The very light texture is only a con for me during the cold, dry Canadian winter. Something a little richer would last longer.

I love this product's gentleness on my acne prone chin area. My regime is wash with "Spectogel for sensitive skin", apply "Complex 15", and then, the last step, apply BP 8% to problem area. "Complex 15" is very light, and it penetrates the skin quickly. I only wait a few seconds before applying my BP 8%. Someone suggested in a previous review that the USA version of "Complex 15" is different than the Canadian. I tested both, and found absolutely no difference. It's cheaper in the USA though. Complex 15 is so light I use it around my eyes too.

Pros:

Provides excellent moisturization; does not irritate or cause hyper-sensitive skin to redden; price is fantastic; makes face feel smooth as silk; found at local drugstore (CVS); fragrance free; hypoallergenic; noncomedogenic

Cons:

Can't think of any!

Great moisturizer at a fantastic price. Contains phospholipids which keep skin moist and balanced. I use the Jan Marini Bioglycolic cleanser, Dan's BP and the Complex 15 moisturizer. This combination is highly effective for me and keeps any sort of acne at bay. I am almost 40 years old and people think I look like I'm in my 20's. They comment on my "beautiful" skin. After years of having acne/oily skin with many trips to the dermatologist and trying so many prescriptions that never worked, I have finally found success with these three over the counter products. I only wish it hadn't taken so long to figure this all out!!!

Pros:

No smell, great consistency, extremely affordable.

Cons:

Not available at Walgreens or CVS.

I can't believe I had never heard of this wonderful product before, or how much money I had wasted on other expensive creams in the past. I have rosacea, and extremely dry/sensitive skin, and after using it for ONE WEEK (seriously, that's it so far) my skin looks so much better.

I haven't be able to find it in local stores for about 1 month and I can sure tell the difference in my skin.

Pros:

Love this product! Have used it for at least 25 years now. New & improved packaging.

Cons:

Someone might have difficulty finding it at the store.

Have always been told that I look younger than I am. Good genes certainly help but I really swear by Complex15 face cream!

Pros:

Free of mineral oil, lanolin, parabens, added fragrance or color, it's non-comedogenic and hypoallergenic; nice consistency, doesn't sting when applied directly after benzoyl peroxide.

Cons:

Difficult to find (CVS is the only store I know of that carries it).

Although it's called a face cream, the consistency is runnier than a cream, so it's great for combination skin. It feels rich enough to soothe my skin after applying Dan's BP gel, but it's not too heavy or greasy to worry that it could clog pores. It may seem a bit boring compared to other higher-end moisturizers, but it doesn't contain many of the harmful ingredients those other moisturizers may use to make them more appealing.
