I have been using it for years, and I love this moisturizer a lot. It does a good job on controlling my oily, and it hydrates my skin well. I can use it year round. And even when i was diagnosed with rosacea last year, i still manage to use it. However, a few months ago, i had this crazy break outs (unknown causes), and my doc asked me to use steroid cream. At first it works well, however after i use it for a month, it worsen my rosacea, and evern since i become more sensitive. Later, I searched online and found something call "steroid induced rosacea". I have to stop using everything i use on a daily basis as they either stopped working for me and/or irritated my skin. I really hate to see myself stop using this as i have been using it for a long time. I'm only using the basic items now recommended by my derm along with Finacea to clear the redness, red bumps, and pimple. I'm using Cerave Hydrating Cleanser, and the lotion. It wells pretty well, and they calm my face, and also soft it. It clears almost 80% of the symptoms I had from my outbreak. Thank god I only use steroid cream for a month, no like using it for a long term, so the issues i had from this induced rosacea will go away in few months. I hope when my face is clear again, at calm, and under control, i can go back to use this again. For those who has rosacea, should never try anything with steroid. Update 11/13/11: I tried going back to use this product as I found that cerave lotion really clogs my pore, but it no longer works for me as my skin no longer like it. Thank god I found another moisturizer that is similar to this and works on my skin which is clinique moisture surge.

H2O plus Face Oasis is my HG moisturizer. my face always feels healthy, moisturized and refreshed with this moisturizer. :D My only complaints is that I wish that this product wasnt packaged in a jar and I wish that it wasnt so expensive.

I adore this moisturiser! I have combination type skin and this formula works wonderfully for me - it's light and absorbs quickly into the skin with no greasy or sticky residue. I use about 3/4 of a dime sized amount every other night, and my skin is smooth and soft. My only gripe is the packaging. A pump bottle would have been better.
The jar has lasted me for more than a year, so I'd say the value is good. Until I find a better moisturiser (maybe one that can minimise my pores), I'll continue repurchasing this.

if you have only used the sample size of this product you might have misjudged this....
I have tried using sample size and found it really really plain and average, until one day, my skin was SOOOOO dry and dehydrated from the sun and air conditioning in my office. So I just decided to give the full size a shot since the counter it was right next to my work.
This saved my skin! and the texture felt so much nicer in the jar in comparison to the sample (I guess from all the air bubbles in the tube from squeezing)
It's definitely the best product of H2O. I have tried other products of H2O and found them average.... (brightening products and the green tea products) but I must say I am starting to explore H2O once again but I am going to stick strictly to the oasis products!
I don't find it greasy at all as long as you control how much product you put on your face. I find it absorbs really well, sinks right in and makes my skin really happy :D
Update: too drying after awhile, I find myself loading a lot of this on and it would just fit on top of my skin without it being absorbed

This is a nice light moisturizer with SPF. I used to wear this moisturizer in the warmer weather months, however, it doesn't hydrate my skin when used alone so I have to use the H2O Oasis24 Hydrating Booster as well to supplement this moisturizer.
I have since stopped using this moisturizer because this moisturizer needed to help to work on my skin, so the hunt continues.

I quite like it. I have oily skin but very dehydrated and this gives me the water I need, without the other creamy/oily stuff. I'm neutral to the stickyness, since unless I touch my face I don't notice and it does not create oil. My No7 left a sticky feeling too and my my skin oily in an attempt to fight out; H20 doesn't.
Additionally, when I ran out of this product and was using what's left of my No7 my skin broke out really badly. I hadn't realized how good my skin was being to me until I switched back.
Overall, nice, light moisturizer that looks and feels pretty pure to me. I'm going to try the Shine Neutralizer version next for summertime.

I had the clearest skin when I was using Face Oasis and their maine toner and cleansing gel as the only skincare products. I didn't even bring any sun screenm eye cream, deep cleansing mask or hydrating masks with me! was only 22 back then and was studying in China ... trust me, skincare wasn't a priority (partying after school was more important LOL). yet my skin was so good. I believe skincare works best when you use the whole line and keep your regimen simple. Yet I am older now and can't turn back. I would recommand using this product along with the toner at least to see the results.

I find myself coming back to this product constantly as I am always curious to see what's out there on the market. I have used MAC, BB, Lancome, and Clarins and i find this to be the most hydrating. I have combination skin, but i find my skin to get really "tight/dry" in some areas of my face. This is where the Face Oasis comes in. Unlike a lot of moisturizers I have tried, it doesn't make me break out. I have super sensitive skin so that's always a plus. This product doesn't get me all "oily" by the end of the day. Love this stuff. i buy the combo package for 2 extra dollars and it comes with the full sized face oasis, facewash and eye moisturizer. pretty good deal. oh and i use extra of this stuff at night to wake up with some prettty soft and hydrated skin :)

I have been using this product for nearly 10 yrs now (does that tell you that I love it? lol). I loooooooooove how its a gel and is oil-free. I have combination skin that just shiiiiiiiiiines if I use cream moisturisers, even though I occasionally have to blot throughout the day, it's nothing major! I love how fresh my face feels after I apply it, it feels a little sticky which some people don't like, but I personally love that feeling. This is definitely ample for summer, but for winter you might need to apply a bit more! Love this product so much!!

This is the only moisturizer that won't give me breakouts. I love H2O plus products. It also hydrates my skin all day long. But this bottle don't last me very long though and for something that is so expensive so that's why I give it a 4 rating. But I still love this and will repurchase since this is the only moisturizer that my face will accept without giving me breakout.

My family raves about this and I just don't get it. Everyone of us has oily skin, and that's really the target audience. They just love it, but I can live without it. It doesn't give me as much moisture as I feel it should. It DOES feel like nothing is on your skin, but for some reason it doesn't jive with me. Wouldn't repurchase.

This is product that will help stopping break-outs I guess, it doesn't made me getting more. It's a little thin, I would only recommend it to oily or combination/ oily skin and only for summer, in the winter this is to thin and the spf is unecessary. But the fact why I would never buy this again is the smell! Yak, it smells very chemical and you smell it all day long. Not my thing.

This is a nice moisturizer for people with oily/combination skin. I usually use this during the summer months when my skin is less dry. It moisturizes and has a very nice, appealing texture. Your skin is left feeling cool and refreshed afterwards.
As with most H2O+ products, this one has a pleasant "marine" scent, which is suitable for both men and women. The ingredients are fairly neutral and I've never had any allergic reactions towards it. In general, I keep this product on hand as a go-to during my skin's moister phases.
If your skin is drier as mine is during the colder months, then this might not be best for you.

So far, this is the only face moisturizer that does NOT break my skin out!! I love H2O. I've tried Phytomer, Loreal, Biotherm... to no avail. I love it enough, i bought my 2nd jar already (that never happened before!). Maybe next time i will try their "Green Tea" series (MUA Rating 4.3).
UPDATE: since i got pregnant i try to find more natural moisturizer for myself. So i say goodbye to all my lotions and creams with parabens and switch to Burt's Bees.

This is a great product that absorbs into your skin very quickly. It also works well as a mask. The smell is okay, not my favorite, but I can live with it. The only thing I didn't like about it was that I got a lot of product under my nails when it was running low and I had to scrape around the edges to pick up some product.

This works really well for me. I put it on right after washing my face to keep it from feeling tight. it doesn't interfere with my acne gel, serum or sunblock, and actually hid some of the negative effects from other products I tried (redness, burning, dryness, etc.). I have little white spatulas from sephora that I use to take the product out of the jar, so the packaging isn't a problem (I'd happily use a bottle, though). in the winter, I apply it again after my acne gel & serum to keep from getting too dry, since I don't have a go-to night cream. I will buy this again; I'm very happy with it.
edited to add: This is now one of my HG products.

This is the 2nd product line I've used on my face since Biore line left my skin dry after almost two years use. After a week of usage, it hydrated my skin like it said it would. I discontinued use due to reading reviews where they said it plumped up their face with too much water. Thus, I go back to this when I have dry spots on my face. The smell leaves me feeling refreshed as well. Good stuff.

The product made my skin breakout and left my face looking shiny. My skin didn't feel hydrated enough when i used the gel, however, I have to admit the gel was very lightweight. I like how it is packaged but I won't buy this product again.

This is one of my primary face moisturizer. I would not have to worry about getting too oily or any break outs from using this product. It feels like putting water directly into my face and making my face feel very moist and fresh.
