Philosophy Acne Kit
- A 4-step program for treating acne.
Product Description
acne kitacne 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. we have a 4-step program to treating acne. step 1-suppress excessive oil production. step 2-shed the pore wall. step 3-help sanitize the skin to protect against bacteria. step 4-seal the skin to help keep the good treatments in and the bad elements out. included in the acne kit: 3.3 oz. on a clear day super wash for oily skin, 1 oz. on a clear day blemish serum, 1 oz. on a clear day hydrogen peroxide cream, and 1 oz. on a clear day protection cream.

Summary: For acne prone skin 2008-08-13
Comment: It is great for acne prone skin. But take care if your skin is not good hidrated, you will need to moisture more than normal, it is a great treatment but dries the skin, which is normal in acne treatments but, T zone, tends to dry, overall sensitive zones. So, get a good hidrating cream/emulsion too(oilfree).

Summary: It works! 2008-07-16
Comment: This works! It didn't dry out my skin or cause it to flake and peel. No redness. I haven't had skin this clear since childhood! One side note, the hydrogen peroxide cream made my eyebrows lighter--oops! Just remember not to get it on your eyebrows and you'll be fine!

Summary: A Philosophy believer! 2008-07-14
Comment: This product is fantastic! I recently began suffering from acne as a graduate student in my early 20's (I think the lack of sleep and stress appeared on my face). Just like many other people, I have tried so many other products (Clinique, Arbonne, Proactive) that did not work for my skin. This product cleared up even my difficult nodular acne (large, hard bumps under the skin's surface). The first couple weeks I did continue to break out (if you suffer from constant acne realize that acne is forming under the skin before it appears on your face, so be patient and realize that the product needs time to bring that acne to the surface and get rid of it). Since then I have been completely amazed by how my skin looks. I still have occasional blemishes but they disappear quickly and are not as severe as before.
The serum is my favorite product in this kit, but I use all four products as recommended. I have noticed that my skin dries out some in the area I use the serum, but I just use a good moisturizer (I use MAC Studio Moisture Fix, which contains antioxidants which are also good for blemished skin) which takes care of the dry spots.
Others have mentioned a dislike for the smell of some of the products. In my opinion the smell is not worth mentioning (it only last a few seconds and is not strong). Also, because it does not require a lot of each product I feel like this will last me for quite sometime! This product worked for me so I have absolutely no complaints! I'm a Philosophy believer!

Summary: Great Product 2008-07-08
Comment: I love this product! I have had mild to moderate acne for the last 20 years. This kit has cleared up my acne and is keeping my skin soft and smooth. I have been using it for almost a month now and have not had any drying effects. I do still develop an occasional blemish, but it is gone in a matter of days. I have tried many different acne kits and products over the years, but this has definately been the most effective. I feel like I am getting a handle on my adult acne and plan to continue purchasing Philosophy products.

Summary: works for my sensitive skin 2008-06-29
Comment: I tried this kit after reading some positive reviews. I break out monthly and have very sensitive skin. I cannot use products with benzol peroxide because it becomes dry and itchy. I do not have that problem with this kit. I've gotten great results and I don't even use the products every day. I recommend this kit if you sensitive skin.
