Pros:

Smells good
awesome job at reducing facial redness
evens out complexion
gentle

Cons:

pricey
a little greasy at first

I LOVE this product. I have SUPER sensitive, dry skin and my face usually looks red and blotchy without make up on (sometimes even with makeup). So I set out to find a product that would help reduce the redness and even out my skin tone. I bought this at target after looking at reviews online. I tried it that night and was pretty excited to see that my face looked awesome when I woke up the next morning. I don't usually like scented moisturizers/make-up but this actually smells really fresh and yummy. I definitely plan on re-purchasing this product once I run out. I would highly recommend this to people with red blotchy skin.

Pros:

-light moisturizer
-sufficient SPF
-calms skin
-smooths complexion over time

Cons:

-expensive
-very heavily scented (watch out, people with sensitive skin!)
-I'm not whether or not it reduces redness

I found this product back when I had very visible acne scars. I was willing to buy anything that said "reduces redness" on it. I'm not sure whether this moisturizer has reduced redness, but it definitely calms my skin. The product has a low enough SPF that it doesn't sting or irritate my skin at all. I mix it with my moisturizer and a few drops of jojoba oil every morning. I have noticed an improvement in my complexion since I started using this product. My skin seems smoother and more even. I haven't added or removed any products from my regimen since I started using this product, so I'm going to pin the results on this. Awesome stuff.

Pros:

Moisturizes even very dry skin, reduces redness, has SPF, doesn't make skin break out

Cons:

The lotion gets a plug even if you use it everyday

My skin was very sensitive, dry, and flaky this lotion saved it! Moisturized it without making it oily. Didn't cause more breakouts.I love it, if you have dry skin prone that breaks out I would definitely recommend this.

Pros:

It calms the skin and one bottle goes a looong way!

Cons:

Although it calms the skin, it doesn't help with the dryness

Well, I'm almost done with my first bottle and I think I'm going to switch to other product, because it calms the skin very well, but it doesn't help with the flaky skin...

Pros:

It absorbs nicely and makes skin feel good. Really does help to reduce redness.

Cons:

after using for longer than a week or so, i started to notice little bumps.

I really like this product even with the bumps. However, they aren't red bumps or anything like that--just tiny little flesh colored ones that just look like a clogged pore under the skin. Overall it's a good moisturizer and it definitely helps to soothe skin.

Pros:

Moisturizing but not greasy, has not caused breakouts, totally taken care of flakiness from acne products, has sunscreen.

Cons:

Because it's a pump, a little lotion gets stuck and dries out at the tip sometimes. Nice scent but I prefer no scent. Pricey for drugstores ($15) but not when compared to department store products.

Phenomenal product!! I have used Retin-A and similar prescription products for 15 years and have always battled the flaky skin that results, trying just about everything on the market from drugstore creams to fancy stuff. They either didn't work or clogged my pores, totally counteractive! I asked my dermatologist what to do because I looked like a freak, and he gave me samples of this. It has truly calmed down my skin, no more flakes or scaliness. I've even stopped exfoliating very much, still works great. Throw away your Cetaphil!

Pros:

It doesn't make me break out, where most moisturizers I have used have. This also doesn't have a lot of fragrance, and it's taken me quite awhile to use one bottle. I have sensitive, oily skin.

Cons:

Sometimes it stings a little, especially if I get too close to my eyes. I also wish it had more SPF.

Overall, this is the best moisturizer I have found for my type of skin. I also use the foaming cleanser, and with a 2.5 BP treatment, my skin stays pretty clear. I have tried others recommended here, but I think they were a bit too harsh on my skin.

Pros:

This product works extremely well for me. Reduces redness extremely well and doesn't make me break out. Non-greasy, apply as much as you'd like.

Cons:

Makes my eyes water if I put it too close to them, a little too expensive for just a convienence store brand. Pump gets stuck in place alot.

It does it's job and soothe's my skin as it claims to do. Does not cause break outs, I would reccomend it to anyone with sensitive, dry, red skin who does not mind a little bit of fragrance.

Pros:

It definately reduced redness in my skin within the first day. I like this product because I don't have to use as much foundation on my skin to cover redness. Clearly has a fragrance, but smells great! moisturizes well enough for me!

Cons:

Takes a while to absorb, but i didn't notice any grasiness throughout the day. I actually broke out a week after using this product, but I think that something else could have caused that (i.e. getting my period, new job etc.) EXPENSIVE

Product smells good, is soothing on my skin, non-greasy and protects against UVA/UVB rays. It's an awesome moisturizer and have had NO problems with it.

Pros:

very lightweight, doesn't increase breakouts, and REALLY helps with redness

Cons:

doesn't help with severely dry skin

I've been using this item for about 3 weeks now and I love it. I have pretty sensitive skin so I was skeptical about using this moisturizer. It's wonderful! It helps so much with my redness and doesn't break my face out. I use the moisturizer with SPF during the day and the lotion at night. Both are kinda pricey but it's worth it!
