Pros:

It doesn't sting like some moisturizers and doesn't cause breakouts.

Cons:

Must be careful to apply enough or else I'll be flaky in spots throughout the day.

It's a great product for sensitive skin, like mine, which turns red and also breaks out easily. My skin is super-dry with BP, so I have to use a lot of this stuff to stay moisturized, but it's the best thing I've found for my sensitive skin.

Pros:

Does not make me breakout!!!

Cons:

Not moisturizing enough in the winter.

This is pretty much the only moisturizer I can put on my face without worrying I will breakout. Which is such a blessing because I get dry skin. In the winter and I am now on Sprionolactone so it has not been moisturizing enough. For me it is hard to find, I have to order it off [link removed].

This does not burn my skin or break it out like most every other lotion I have used.It is a little runny when squeezed out of the tube, otherwise, it is well worth $7

Pros:

Not greasy. Absorbs into skin immediately. I have combination skin and it's also very sensitive. Non irritating. Affordable.

Cons:

no SPF

It was recommended to me by the Cleveland Clinic about 4 years ago for a good moisturizer and have been using faithfully ever since. I've een told I look much younger than my age. What's not to love about it.

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:

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:

I have been using this moisturizer for over 15 years when it was recommended by my dermatologist as I suffered from adult acne in my late 30's. It is light and dissolves easily. I remained faithful all these years. Could only find it at CVS until...

Cons:

CVS recently stopped carrying it. They seemed to have replaced it with Ceptaphil's new moisturizer, which I was forced to buy, when I couldn't find my old standby. I find Cetaphil's mositurizer to be sticky and bad for my sensitive skin.

Thank God for the internet where I have found the best product for my still oily, and sensitive skin again. I will now be purchasing Complex 15 by the half dozen to stockpile so that I NEVER have to suffer again!

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!!!
