Product Description

Product Description

philosophy: what would it be like to have unblemished skin? well, there is no such thing. if skin were that perfect, then it wouldn't be real, and you are real, we are sure of that. instead of focusing on what's wrong, focus on what's right.

acne is a genetic condition that can stay with you for the rest of your life. quite simple, acne occurs when the shedding process of dead cells in the hair follicle goes awry. instead of mixing with sebum in the sebaceous gland and being washed out through the pores, the follicle produces cells that stick together, mix with oil, and cause a bacterial reaction which results in at its mildest, a clogged pore and at its most extreme, a cyst. philosophy has a four-step program for treating acne. suppress oil production, shed the pore wall, help sanitize the skin to protect against bacteria and seal the skin to help keep the good treatments in and the bad elements out.

4.0 out of 5 stars It works!, August 29, 2005
By J. Haddow (Jacksonville, FL) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I used this kit previously, only before they used to have a retin-a cream and the products were packaged differently. It worked quite well before. I developed mild acne again (uneven skin surface and small bumps), and decided to shell out the money to get this treatment. After just 2 days I am already noticing a big difference. I'd previously been usuing Proactiv, and that never worked as well as this. I suppose it might depend on what your skin is used to. Benzoyl peroxide treatments work ok for me, but my skin seems to be responding better to the AHA's in the Philosophy products. It seems quite pricey, moreso than your regular drugstore products. But it's very effective and will last a while if you use it sparingly, which is all you need daily. I love philosophy products and would definitely recommend this kit to anyone. I think after I finish this kit, I'll try the microdelivery peel. I gave it 4 stars b/c I just started using this new version, but I am very satisfied with the results at this point.

By L. Gray (Alb NM) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I have tried everything for my skin. I am almost 40 and still have breakouts. This is the best product I have tried. It is also priced very well...a lot lower than what I was using before. I won't go back!! If you have acne, try this product.

By HAPPY MOM (Covington, Tn USA) - See all my reviews
I AM A DEVOTED PHILOSPOHY USER, SO WHEN MY SON DEVELOPED ACNE I DECIDED TO BUY THIS KIT FOR HIM. AFTER JUST ONE APPLICATION THE REDNESS AND SWELLING STARTED GOING AWAY! HE USED IT AT NIGHT AND WHEN HE AWOKE THE NEXT MORNING, WAS AMAZED AT THE RESULTS! WE DABBED SOME OF THE SYRUM ON PROBLEM AREAS AND WHAT A DIFFERENCE! I CANNOT RECOMMEND PHILOSOPHY ENOUGH TO FRIENDS AND FAMILY! WITH THE RESULTS HE CONTINUES TO GET, HE DOESN'T MIND THE 4 STEP PROCESS! WE HAD TRIED OTC MEDICINES BUT THIS BY FAR HAS WHAT IT TAKES! THANK YOU PHILOSOPHY FOR ANOTHER GREAT PRODUCT KIT!
