It really works !!

After using it for about 2 weeks, my younger sister asked me what I was using to keep my skin looking so firm and wrinkle free. I asked her how much money she wanted :D. She was serious !!! I told her I just started using Philosophy make-up optional skin care for my skin type. She asked if they had anything for her as she has been trying to find something for the last 15 years and hasn't found anything that doesn't dry out or make her skin feel tight and painful. I bought her the sensitive skin kit and she loves it !!!! We are both going to be lifetime users !!!!

Not the miracle I hoped for, but good nonetheless

I am 28 with decent skin (combination with patchy dryness, T-zone shine, blackheads on my nose and chin, occasional breakouts, no lines/wrinkles). I was hoping for a peaches and cream complexion, but the results were not that miraculous. The cleanser is great, the smell is sort of a light citronella scent and it is creamy and nonlathering, so my skin feels clean but not stripped after using it. The serum has a strange smell, I don't care for it, but it's not so unpleasant as to make me not use it. The lotion is a bit drying, so I only use it on oily/blackhead prone areas. I haven't used the eye/lip cream much as I don't have a big aging problem (yet!). The peel makes my skin feel smooth but a little dry. Overall, I definitely buy the cleanser again and maybe the lotion, but would likely pass on the serum, eye cream, and peels if they weren't on sale or in a kit.

Wish it would have worked.

After reading all the reviews I was so excited to try this product. After the first few days of using it my face really started to break out, which I was expecting. But I kept using the product for 4 weeks. After the 4 week mark my face had the worst acne than it has even had. My face usually is not sensative to any product, nor did my face dry out during the whole process. I just needed to quit using it do to all of the acne.

Thank you for a product line that finally works!

I am reluctant to try anything new on my sensitive, broken out skin because many products are just too harsh. And being 30something, I am sick of the blackheads and the pimples. I was orginally going to buy the Clear Day products, but I am so happy I tried this kit instead. The entire line works beautifully together. Strong enough to clear things up, but not too tough on sensitive skin. I do agree with some of the other reviewers about the Hope in a Bottle being a bit drying. That being said, I think the it will work wonderfully in the summer. I am back to purchase the Hope in a Jar and the Microdermabrasion product that comes as samples in the kit. After two weeks I am almost completely clear. And some of the minor scarring I had is almost gone. I am in love with this line and thrilled that it actually works.

Dont use the Hope in a bottle lotion in the kit

I bought the kit two weeks ago. I broke out a few days after use the 4 step system. I used everything except for the hope in the bottle and my face is 100% better. I love the face wash, serum & the eye cream but the hope in the bottle was too harsh for my face. I instantly broke out after using it so I bought Hope in a Jar for sensitive skin and it works great. My skin looks amazing. If you have sensitive skin don't use this kit. Use the optional kit for sensitive skin thas what I should of done instead of buying this kit. The sensitive kit comes with the hope in a jar. Overall love it. My face looks great after 2 weeks

amazing

I am 64 and for the last 50 years I have tried everything under the sun to try to achieve a clear, soft, flake-free complexion. Nothing worked until I tried this kit--even the dermatologist threw up her hands and said, "live with it." Well, not any more. My skin is soft, flake-free and clear! It took about a month to see the full results, but WOW! so worth it!
