This is an excellent moisturizer... which I used when proactive would get my skin super dry. It smells good, and it will make your skin moisturized and soft. I also liked that it didnt make my skin oily, or super shiny- i hate that. The bottle is fairly small, but a liitle bit went a long way- so that wasnt too much of an issue.

For one thing, it's over priced! I don't want to spend $28 on a moisturizer, even though it worked pretty well. I just used a free sample of it, and kinda liked it. But you can always get something like this, with the same quality and for half the price, even less. Because of the price, I won't get it again :) But it does do good if you have some flakiness on your skin =)

For many years I have been unable to use any lotion (or really any products at all), that don't cause break outs. This lotion is the first and only lotion that I have been able to use to hydrate my skin, not end up greasy, and not get any breakouts. It also doesn't congest my pores. I LOVE this stuff. Any time I stray and try something with higher reviews and allegedly good for acne prone skin, I end up with little white heads to big pimples within days and end up back on this. It is not super moisturizing, but it is the best I have found and perfect for summer.

I hate the fact that it's so tiny and pricey, but completely indispensable to me. This is THE BEST makeup primer for the winter. It goes on like silk, doesn't feel greasy or leave a film, and it sinks deeply into your skin almost immediately. The result is that it plumps up your skin as if you just had the best night's sleep. It's pretty incredible and I cannot say enough good things about this tiny tube. I got this initially as a travel size tube which I took on vacation with me, I couldn't run fast enough to go buy the full size tube after I got home. I would recommend this to anyone with combination skin in need of a light and deeply nourishing cream.

This is a very lightweight gel like moisturizer. It sinks right in without leaving any film or greasiness or residue whatsoever. I like the green tea aspect to this and I think it's a good moisturizer for someone with oily skin. I would use this again in the summer. In the winter my skin dries out too much and I don't think this would be moisturizing enough.

Squeeze out just a tad on your finger and it is enough to moisturize both side of your cheeks and the rest of the face. I really like this. :D

I’ve only been using this like 3 weeks but I just love it so much I have to comment now. I waited a few weeks just to be absolutely positive this doesn’t break my acne prone skin out since every moisturizer I’ve tried in the past has to some degree. If you’ve suffered from bad acne you know how abrasive acne treatments are and how drying they can be so its a must to moisturize. I had a small free sample of this and tried it and finished that up and had to buy it. I’ve not yet been let down by any proactiv products and I’ve been using them on and off for about 6 years so this just adds to my proactiv collection :)

I LOVE this moisturiser. The other Proactiv products and my skin don't go well together, but this is a miracle product. When I was using the Neutrogena Pink Grapefruit cleanser, (Which dried out my skin horribly) this is the moisturiser I used.
I still use it every other day when my skin is feeling a little dry. It doesn't make my skin oily or anything, it doesn't make me break out, and it hydrates my skin just the perfect amount. Great product form Proactiv.

Love, Love, LOVE this moisturiser <3

I recently started using Atralin, as prescribed by my dermatologist. Using this a few times per week really makes my skin extremely dry, so I began searching for a moisturizer that was gentle enough for my sensitive skin and was able to really moisturize well without being too greasy and breaking me out.




I've been using this for a few days, and I can tell that it's not breaking me out, so that is a really big plus, but I'm disappointed because it's not that moisturizing and after I apply it, my skin still feels tight. One of the reasons I was drawn to this was because it's marketed to people whose skin is dry from acne medications. I think I'll continue using this when I wash my face in the morning, but I'm still looking for a moisturizer that works well for my night routine.

I love the way this makes my skin feel hydrated without getting oily or sticky. I do not use any other pro activ products, I find them too harsh for my skin so I was shocked at how much I enjoyed this moisturizer. I will repurchase this product, although I admit I am still looking if there is something even better.

This is the only product from Pro Activ that I will buy again and recommend. I have combination skin...really oily t-zone and dry everything else. This moisturizer is perfect for me. Feather weight formula, absorbs fast, no residue and a little goes a long way. When I wake up every morning my face feels beautiful. Definitely buy if you dunno where to start with moisturizers or are looking for one perfect for your skin type...this is it.

It is a really nice product but I hate dealing with Proactiv and their horrible customer service. The shipping takes a long time and the prices are not cheap (including shipping!). Pros of this product- nice weight, instantly hydrates, makes skin feel nice, pleasant smell.

Cons- price, having to deal with ProActiv

I am using Arcona now (with a lot of success) but I don't like their White Ice so I would go back to this.

This is the best moisturizer for my oily skin! it goes on so light and fresh and absorbs fast! If you have oily skin and need a moisturizer thats light and simple not heavy- YOU NEED THIS! When I went to NJ i accidentally left it in the hotel room, It came as a free gift so I wasn't terribly disappointed. im looking for an alternative.. I think ULTA has one I might try.
If you can afford to just purchase this from pro activ please do you won't regret it, mine was the 2.5 oz bottle which lasted pretty long!

I have like 4 samples of this, and I intend on buying the full size when I run out. For a few months, I was looking for a good facial moisturizer that wouldn't break me out, but only to no avail. I've always had these lying around, and one day I just tried it. Best decision. ever. The second this touches your face, it's like a cooling sensation. It's very light, and I don't even feel it 5 minutes later. I have a lot of dead skin (I'm on the hunt for a good exfoliater now!), and it's immensely dry after I wash it. This just does the trick to smooth everything out.

I'm not sure how much the full size version is, but knowing Proactiv, it'll be quite expensive. I'm willing to spend the money for this.

Excellent product! This is the lightest moisturizer I've ever used. It's refreshing, non-sticky, non-greasy, and soothing. It's softening without being oily at all. It smells clean and fresh, too. I haven't been a regular user of moisturizer, but this is my very favorite. I wish it was easier to purchase! I get this and the toner from my 17 year old son's acne kits. I want to be able to purchase them on their own, when I need them.

I have combo (but more on the dry side), sensitive, and acne-prone skin.
I love this stuff. It's a bit pricey though for such a small amount you get, but it's amazing! The texture is like a gel, there's a nice scent to it, and it does not clog my pores or cause any breakouts at all on me. It also soothed and calmed down my irritated skin while I was having a breakout. I took a lippy off though because the only small down side is that I'll have to reapply this a bit more frequently because it doesn't moisturize enough as I'd like it to.

I recently bought this and it's been one of the best moisturizers I've come across. I'm acne prone + super dry skin. I tried everything from 24H hydration creams to serums and finally to applying a hydration mask daily. It's not fun when your skin is dry and sensitive with flaky skin all the time. My skin was so dry it developed into eczema a few months ago. Thank god it's gone. I'm trying to cut back the number of products I use on my face and this Green Tea Moisturizer really helped. Now I'm able to use my prescribed acne creams (drying stuff) with just this on top before my make up. The bottle is small but it acts like a serum so it's not too bad for the price.

I love this moisturizer! It is not greasy because it is a gel formula. It soothes my skin and smells amazing with the green tea scent. It makes my skin so soft and doesn't make me more oily. They have a 2.5 ounce bottle now so you have more product now. I purchased the 2.5 ounce bottle from QVC for 36.50

Many people are saying they wish it came in a size bigger than 1oz. and it does. There's a 2.5 oz size now, you can get it at the carts and not have to sign up for anything. It is expensive though, $49.99.

That being said, I have oily skin and it's hard to find a moisturizer that won't leave my skin with a greasy, oily, film or make the oil worse. This is great because it gives me the right hydration without that heavy feeling. I would not recommend this to people with dry skin, it simply does not hydrate enough. I don't mind the fact that it doesn't have SPF because my primer does. Right now though, sometimes I have to use my Olay active hydrating cream for extra moisture because I started using Retin A recently and the Green Tea is just not enough. I'm sure once my skin gets used to it, this will suffice. I really like it, it makes my skin feel baby soft.
