Acne the Regimen, Complete Acne. org Treatment

This stuff is great; I have been using it for more than 15 years. as part of The Regimen, I used it to get rid of moderate acne over 15 years ago (which I had been suffering from for about 1 years at the time). Absorbs quickly, doesn't leave an oily layer. Gentle on skin, fragrance-free, just a great moisturizer all around. I use it on my face, hands,= and body as necessary.

Great for adult acne. Has a medicinal smell and a yellow tinge, but works amazingly. I still use an over the counter heavy moisturizing lotion from time to time on my neck, eyes, and chin because they get dry, but my skin is totally cleared up. Stopped my antibiotics two weeks after using and my acne has remained under control (even hormonal acne which can be very difficult to get rid of).

I debated over rating this 2 or 3 stars. This moisturizer I used for months-the longest I’ve ever used a moisturizer. In coordination with the rest of the acne.org system (except for the cleanser, which I dropped after a week), my very noticeable and longlasting acne that lived on my face for a few years became almost entirely nonexistent. I got a lot of compliments and questions about how my face changed so quickly! This moisturizer was better when I was first using it. It made my face oily in many areas, and also made my skin have a strong yellowish tint. It made my eyebrows look very oily and yellow too if I ever got some of the moisturizer there, and if it wasn’t dry enough when I fell asleep, then it would stain my pillow (which I honestly didn’t mind at all). All of these things I was willing to disregard, as my skin was almost entirely clear! I put jojoba oil on top to help dryness, but when I put it on my forehead the moisturizer would drip into my eyes by the end of the day, stinging them. Another problem was that when I left the house in the cold weather, and had to walk, my face literally felt like it was covered in ice cubes (given, this was when it hadn’t entirely soaked in yet). Anyways, all of these things are important to know, but I was very willing to just deal with them. The only thing that really bothered me was my oily and yellow looking face! Then, after several months of using this, I began to get random rashes on my face. I never actually blamed this on the moisturizer, because these wouldn’t occur all the time, but when I switched to a more natural one, then I stopped getting the random patches of rashes on my face (which looked like poison ivy and felt like my first layer of skin was peeled off, and was itchy and wet). Also, my skin started to feel beyond dry and itchy, with a lot of flakiness. I had to keep on reapplying with a lot of jojoba oil, but it never worked! My face was just oily, dry, flakey, irritated, yellow, and annoyed. This moisturizer did not make me break out, but I would not recommend this due to all of its other negative qualities.

Excitedly bought this because 2.5% benzoyl peroxide has been a mainstay for acne treatment. This moisturizer made me break out!

My face is always sensitive to new products except if it likes it. I like that it is not greasy and absorb good
