Pros:

Works against redness and it doesn't make me break out.

Cons:

Greasy (results in shiny face), fragrance too strong, terrible pump design, still a little flakey if skin is really dry, EXPENSIVE, SPF (alot of SPF ingredients are being identified as bad for you, the ingredient in this I am not too crazy about).

Something changed, because I used to love this stuff. Now it makes my face very greasy, but not in a way that makes me break out (THANK GOODNESS). It is still an "un-enjoyable" feeling however and makes my face shiny. I am looking into changing products once I run out. The pump design changed as well, more product splurts out, much more than you need. I milked the old design in order to use the least I needed since it is very expensive, but now its near impossible to control. Not good for a product that is so expensive for the size. The price just does not match the quality anymore. Very unfortunate, I would've recommended it before these mysterious changes. I am very disappointed in Aveeno for doing this!

Pros:

it was a good product. it left my skin feeling soft and it took away the redness. it still removes some redness, but it leaves my skin too oily for it to be worth it.

Cons:

they changed the formulation! it smells awful now and it feels very greasy. they also increased the price. for some reason it develops a dry plug after only one day's use. yuck.

it was a good product, but it is no longer worth the price.
