 Love this product! Helpful hint if your pump doesnt work right...Aug 13, 2010
By Jessi
I love this product! I have had a lot of trial and error with face lotions. I have tried dozens and this does the trick for me! It keeps my skin moisturized, but not too oily and never dry. My biggest problem with face lotions is most make my skin too oily which makes me break out, but the products with sacylic acid or anything like that, doesn't moisturize my face enough and leaves my skin too dry which then causes my skin to overcompensate and I break out. This product is the perfect balance for me and it keeps my skin tone even. Now please don't take my review or any review as the end all be all, as everyone's skin is different and no review is going to tell you whats right for you until you try it! Now I hear this is being discontinued which makes me so sad, since I finally found something that works for me. So stock up!
Making the pump work... I've wasted time and energy and lotion pumping and pumping so both side work. I discovered if you take the white top off, you will see two little tubes on each side where the lotion and sunscreen each come out... whichever side isn't coming out just push down on the tube over and over until that side starts pumping out. Then pop the white top back on and your in business.

 Works well, if you can get the dual pump to workMar 22, 2009
By A. Boston
I initially was angry about this product. It took me a good 5 or 6 wasted pumps of the sunscreen to get the moisturizer to come out with it. It tells you in various places to tap the bottle on a hard surface if it doesn't start pumping with both. That led me to believe it was a common issue.
But once I got over the wasted couple tablespoons of product, I do really like this. It's doesn't leave you shiny and sinks in easily. It's oil free and non-comedogenic(won't clog pores). Very light fragrance, nothing overpowering or noticeable. Does not leave a white-cast like some sunscreen infused products can. It does seem to pill up a little(when you go back over the area you lotioned a couple minutes later, it rolls up into a little ball), and thats never good. But despite that I do still like this product and will use it. But those two major issues - the pump and pilling lead me to give it 3 stars.
I was specifically looking for something at least 30 SPF with UVA/UVB protection, because otherwise, it's barely worth it. I think it's important to wear sunscreen daily as I am fair with freckles(which keep getting darker and producing little freckle babies) so it's a must. I also have sensitive, skin with hormonal breakouts, and my skin hasn't become angry... we've got happy skin here. Also, please don't forget to apply to the back of your hands, neck and chest area! Nothing worse then a pretty ageless face with spotted, wrinkly hands and chest.
Lastly, just for some technical info. It says PABA free on the box. Had no clue what this meant. After some research, I found PABA is para-aminobenzoic acid and has been discontinued from use in sunscreen products due to allergic skin reactions in some people.
Some other important sunscreen info if you're interested:
What is the difference between a SPF 15 and a SPF 30 plus? A SPF 15 sunscreen absorbs about 93% of the UV, which means it lets 7% of the UV through into the skin. A SPF 30 sunscreen lets about 3.5% of the UV through. This means a SPF 30 sunscreen reduces by half the amount of UV getting through to the skin. However, you should still re-apply a SPF30 sunscreen product every two hours, just like you do a SPF 15 sunscreen product.
What do UVA and UVB mean? UVA are the long wave ultraviolet rays (from 320-400nm). UVA rays can penetrate to the deeper layers of the skin and produce delayed effects leading to accelerated skin aging. UVB are the shorter wavelength rays (from 280-320nm) which can produce immediate burning of the outer layer of skin, leading to sunburn in the short term and skin cancer in the longer term.

helpful hintApr 04, 2010
By Jane Austen
This product is too good for me not to defend. If you're having trouble getting both sides to pump out. Use your finger and cover up the side that does work, then keep gently pushing down the pump until the air pressure builds up and forces the other side to pump out too.

 Isn't working for meAug 15, 2009
By M. Lynch

This product is actually two products in one bottle, a moisturizing lotion and a sun protection lotion. Instead of mixing the products together into one lotion, you get one bottle with two chambers so that the products dispense separately ... but then go together on your face. This is supposed to help preserve each product, but I'm not sure I get how this technology works to do that. It's an interesting concept nonetheless. But it also creates a big problem for me.
As of this writing, I have pumped the bottle at least 30 times, and all that's coming out is the green lotion (SPF). I have whacked the bottle against hard surfaces in every way and direction imaginable, stuck a thin needle down into the moisturizer side, and run water into the moisturizer side, but absolutely nothing is coming out! I have put it aside for now rather than continue to waste the green lotion, which feels hot on my face anyway (not a good sign -- maybe the moisturizer would cool it down?). I see I am not the only one with this problem. Maybe Biore put out a batch where someone accidentally forgot to fill the moisturizer chamber. I plan to email Biore about the problem, but unfortunately their site is down at the moment. Perhaps all the customers trying to write in to complain about this product crashed it.

Throwing it outJan 15, 2010
By smartshopper
I didn't have any problems getting the pump to work. My problem is this leaves white residue all over my face and seems to make some spots even drier. I'm better not putting anything on.
