Never skip moisturizer to avoid breakouts. Acne-prone skin absolutely needs hydration. This lightweight, acne-safe formula like Skin Recovery Lotion is perfect.
Acne-prone skin needs barrier repair too, but it’s essential to choose products suited for your skin type.
For additional hydration, prime skin with Moisture Infusion Toner on extra dry days.

Super moisturizing and light

Love this moisturizer as the final step in my evening routine. It feels good and smells good without irritating my skin. Super light but very hydrating and effective.

My Go-To Lotion

This facial lotion continues to be my go-to. It calms any redness, moisturizes without having to use a large amount, evens tone, and doesn't leave me looking overly shiny or feeling sticky. My skin looks better in the morning when I use it at night. I like trying different products, and can get caught in the idea that skincare is better if it's complicated. But I keep returning to this lotion. It's simple, it works, and my skin looks younger because of it. The only time I stop using this lotion is in the driest months of winter. Then I switch to Sheer Moisture Lotion.

The best lotion

I have been using this lotion for years, and I have never been able to find another that measures up. My skin is very sensitive and reactive, but this lotion is the solution to most, if not all, of my issues. It is worth every penny!

My son’s skin had terrible acne but also was terribly dry. A combination of this lotion and the ace facial soaps from this line has totally saved his skin!!
