Pros:

Light enough for day wear and under makeup. Moisturizes well.

Works great for AM use but will not be moisturizing enough for PM if you are on the Regimen. I don't think that's a problem though, I just use Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream (tub) at night and I don't have any flakes.

Pros:

Does not cause acne, very effective at moisturizing, not too shiny, unscented

Cons:

slightly shiny, makes my face have kind of a dull slightly plasticy look, burns if even a tiny bit gets washed into the eyes (e.g, when showering)

Good moisturizer if you want to avoid breakouts

Pros:

None that I can think of

Cons:

It just didn't work for me

I got this moisturizer because it had so many good reviews and I am sad that it did not work well at all for me like it did for so many others. When I first applied it, it was greasy though the greasiness did go away after a minute or so. I eventually developed even worse dry skin and I now have flakes. I didn't even have flakes before I used this moisturizer. Since I thought this moisturizer would take some getting used to, I stuck with it until it finally ran out. My face still feels weird and dry, though Dan's jojoba oil helped me out a lot.

Pros:

No breakouts, no scents, no irritation, cheap.

Cons:

Not always moisturizing enough for dry patches. Sometimes need to reapply. Can be hard to find depending where you live.

I switched to this from a richer moisturizer I was using due to the drying effect of topical acne lotions and Canadian winters. That rich moisturizer was great, but was causing me to break out and left my skin shiny. C15 leaves your skin much less shiny than other moisturizers, is light and sinks in quickly. No redness or stinging, very gentle. I buy the body lotion and use it on my face as well (it's the same formulation as face cream, just in a larger bottle, more cost-effective). Overall I really like this moisturizer because I know it'll never break me out, not irritating and leaves my skin glowy not shiny. If you like a super matte look you'll still need powder on top. For dry patches I use a richer moisturizer to spot treat rather than risk a break out by using it all over my face.

Pros:

After many years of suffering through greasy moisturizers I've finally (at 50 years old) found a moisturizer that doesn't make my face look like an oil slick. I use Dan's BP product and this moisturizer. I'm thrilled with the results!

Cons:

I wish packaging was upright and in a pump. Screw off top is a bit of a hassle. I got htis at my local CVS Pharmacy.

I've struggled with extremely oily skin my entire adult life. I'm thrilled to be oil free for the first time in years. YIPPPPPEEEE!!!!

Pros:

I have been using this for years. First product ever that moisturizes without creating more acne. This is a huge deal for those of us with life long acne problems.

Cons:

It doesn't seem to come with any UVA/UVB protection.

It does create a little shine. Small 'price' for no zits. Easily remedied with a little powder.

It costs a bit more. It never lets me down.

Pros:

Does not cause acne or any breakouts, great moisturizing and gentle enough to use around eyes

Cons:

causes slight shine but other than that....Not one!!

Can't live without this product..i've suffered with acne for years and have tried so many moisturizers, some very expensive ones included. My dermatologist told me about Complex 15 a few years ago and i have used it ever since. It is the only moisturizer that i can say does not cause breakouts and keeps my skin under control. Very affordable too!!!

Fragrance- free, doesn't cause any new breakouts

It is great that it is fragrenece free and doesn't cause any breakouts but It doesn't adequately moisturize my skin even when I apply more of the product.
