Recommend your favorite moisturizer (acne)
Need some help with moisturizers for acne prone skin. Bonus points if it's under $15 and I can get it locally (Whole Foods, Walgreens). I've been using Cetaphil with SPF, but it's a 3 on the ewg database. I'd prefer to use something with a 0-1 rating. ps- OCM does not work for me. TIA
Re: Recommend your favorite moisturizer (acne)
I use plain jojoba oil or this aloe:

it's marketed for infants but it's done wonders on my face.
I used to have acne and struggled with it. I played a lot of sports and was a bit of a tom boy in my teens to early 20s. I used to spend tons of money on clearisil cetaphil and different products. I started using proactive renewing cleanser and havent had acne in years. Don't order online because you will be charged $30 a month. Just go on amazon and order a single bottle of the renewing cleanser. I don't use any of the other products they offer just the cleanser alone. A bottle will last me 7 months you only need the tiniest bit and you will see huge results.Trust me dont spend ur money on all the other products

I have acne prone skin and the one moisturizer I am using now is great. The upside is that it is a tinted moisturizer and is SPF! It doesnt clog my pores or cause any acne outbreaks. It isn't greasy either and a tube lasts months on end..I've had mine for almost a year.
The downside is that it is more than $15 (totally worth the money though!) and it might be hard to find. Here is theyre website; http://www.annalotan.com/big_pic/152.html
