Customer Feedback:

"...Works better than all the other expensive products I've tried and it is all natural...."

"...not only is my face moisturized and protected, but my skin is softer, smoother, and less oily. I love this product!..."

"...This one's too greasy-feeling on my skin and leaves it a bit shiny, plus the smell is way too strong...."

"...I have mild rosecea and started using this product after hearing that the algae could help calm the reddness. It works like a charm, my skin looks beautiful!..."

"...I have used it for one week and it seems to have caused some mild red facial bumps/inflammation...."

--Actual user comments from Amazon.com User Reviews section

"...This product gave me a rash that is still there a few days later...."

"...very good to my skin. Not greasy, but goes on and stays smooth. It is the best i have used under make up. Keeps my skin from geting shiny...which is a problem for me. No break out and good sun protection for brief encounters...."

"...The smell takes some getting used to. I stopped using this product after a week as it was too heavy and made my skin shiny...."

Our Final Assessment:

Aubrey Organics Blue Green Algae Moisturizer for Combination Oily Skin with SPF 15 is one of Aubrey's poorest ranked products that we've found. With many negative reviews (largely due to the scent - yes we've tried this one, and the scent is very strong, and you will smell it all day, though it does go on smoothly and moisturize well from our experience), and a poor safety rating of 5 with the EWG, we cannot recommend this one. This moisturizer contains Padimate O, a natural sunscreen which some are allergic to; however, even worse, it contains Vitamin A, and ingredient which is NOT recommended for wearing out in the sun due to cancer risk. The combination of these two ingredients, along with the poor customer reviews make this product probably one to avoid, even though it is made with 100% natural ingredients, and cost is decent for an all-natural facial moisturizer. Overall we gave it a total rating of 4 - one of our lowest to date.
