## What reviewers say

Based on a very large amount of data, this gel-cream is highly favored by users with oily and combination skin for its very lightweight, jelly-like texture that hydrates without clogging pores or leaving a greasy residue. A significant number of users with dry skin or in colder climates find it insufficient, noting it lacks the deep moisture needed to prevent tightness or flaking.

- Liked: Lightweight & Non-Greasy (mostly mentioned)
- Liked: Fast Absorption (often mentioned)
- Liked: Ideal for Oily/Combo Skin (often mentioned)
- Disliked: Insufficient moisture (often mentioned)
- Liked: Cooling & Refreshing (sometimes noted)
- Liked: Makeup Friendly (sometimes noted)
- Disliked: Small quantity (sometimes noted)
- Disliked: Sticky residue (sometimes noted)
- Disliked: Caused breakouts (rarely noted)

## How to apply

- Use your moisturizer twice a day in your AM and PM routines. Apply it daily to help keep breakouts under control.
- Apply after your cleanser and toner, and make sure to use your SPF right after in the morning.
- Gently spread a small amount of moisturizer over your face using soft motions. Let it absorb into the skin for a minute before getting dressed or applying makeup.
- Apply on slightly damp skin to help lock in extra moisture. This keeps your combination skin balanced without feeling heavy.
- Avoid the eye area and do a patch test before your first use. Stop using if you feel any irritation.

## Questions and answers

### How well does Versed Dew Point work for acne-prone skin?

This moisturizer works reasonably well for acne-prone skin, providing safe hydration with soothing ingredients, though other products fit this skin type better. A moisturizer for acne-prone skin needs effective ingredients that specifically target blemishes and breakouts while maintaining hydration.
Sources: [Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28860834/), [Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2019](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31239743/)

### Which ingredients make this cream a good fit for acne-prone skin?

Aloe barbadensis leaf juice and camellia sinensis leaf extract make this cream safe for your acne-prone skin by helping soothe it without harsh ingredients. To be a top fit for this skin type, a moisturizer also needs ingredients that directly target breakouts and blemishes while keeping skin balanced and hydrated.
Sources: [Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2019](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31239743/), [The Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 2013](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23096708/)

### What does Aloe Vera Leaf Juice do for acne-prone skin?

Aloe Vera Leaf Juice helps calm acne-prone skin and may reduce redness, bumps, and spots when used consistently. Studies show it helps clear breakouts and keeps skin smooth by fighting blemish-causing factors.
Sources: [Clinical Pharmacology, 2018](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30588129/), [The Journal of Dermatological Treatment, 2014](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23336746/)

### What does Green Tea Extract do for acne-prone skin?

Green tea extract helps calm acne-prone skin by reducing oil and targeting bacteria that cause breakouts. Using it may significantly lower both red bumps and clogged pores over several weeks.
Sources: [Phytotherapy Research, 2021](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32812270/), [The Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 2013](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23096708/)

### Where does this cream go in a skincare routine for acne-prone skin?

This moisturizer goes near the end of your morning and evening routines, right before sunscreen in the morning and after treatments at night. To work best for acne-prone skin, this type of product also needs targeted ingredients that actively help clear breakouts and calm blemishes.
Sources: [Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28860834/)

### Can I use this cream with retinol, and in what order?

You can use this cream with retinol, applying it after your retinol treatment to help calm the skin and reduce dryness. An acne-prone skin routine works best when it also includes ingredients that directly target breakouts and blemishes alongside basic hydration.
Sources: [Cutis, 2006](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17121065/), [The Journal of Dermatology, 2014](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24930436/)

### Can this cream clog pores, cause breakouts or purging for acne-prone skin?

This cream is unlikely to clog pores or cause breakouts for your acne-prone skin because it contains soothing aloe and green tea extract along with safe, non-irritating ingredients. However, because other moisturizers fit this skin type better, an ideal product for this skin needs added ingredients that directly target breakouts and blemishes.
Sources: [Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2019](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31239743/), [The Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 2013](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23096708/)

### Can I use this cream around the eyes or on my body?

You can use this cream safely on both the delicate skin around your eyes and on your body, as its gentle ingredients are well tolerated across different skin thicknesses. To best care for acne-prone skin on the body or face, a product like this needs to combine lightweight hydration with targeted blemish-clearing ingredients.
