Effective in reducing acne and redness for many users.
Mixed feelings about the thickness and oiliness of the moisturizer.
Affordable with a mild scent, but some users struggle with over-pumping product.
Based on analysis of over 10,000 products. Typical price range defined as the 25th to 75th percentile.
A active priced at $15-20 is considered budget-friendly. Generally, actives cost between $24 and $68, and have an average price of $52.
