Customer Review: When It's Time For The Big Guns
Summary: 4 Stars
This review refers to Philosophy - Save Me(Treatment for Mature Skin)
During the Holiday season I was shopping at the Philosophy site for a friend who uses this brand. Of course she is much younger then me, and so it was easy to pick out some lovely scented bath and beauty products, that by the way, she just loved. As I was browsing the store I came across this product - "SAVE ME" It was for "mature skin" - check- for firming and lifting - check,check- and promised to "cross train" my skin by turning over skin cells with the topical vitamin C -check- and had retinol to reduce fine lines,wrinkles and clogged pores - a big check there on the wrinkles and fine lines! Yes I needed all that. I have "mature" skin, which needed to be "saved". I'm 56, was a smoker,spent alot of time outdoors and always stressing about something - I decided it was time for the big guns.
I thought it was a little on the expensive side for 1 oz.- even with the seasonal discount offered - but with the miracles it promised I decided to go for it. So I've been using it a little over a month now, following the directions of 1 full push on pump for face and decollete(my case),or 1/2 pump for face only(should last you twice as long) and I am just about out. I have been trying to decide whether to reorder. Did I see enough of an improvement to keep going with this?
So I won't keep you in suspense any longer, the answer is yes, I would order it again. The results I saw were not a miracle, not dramatic, but definitely improvement in the feel and appearance of my skin. Firmness( a small but noticable to me difference) - check - renewed skin(yes!) - check - fine line and wrinkles - well - half a check, but half a check is better then none.It also left my skin feeling very soft to the touch and I could still feel that in the morning. Also I think that continued use may help even more.
So comparing it with StriVectin-SD Intensive Concentrate for Existing Stretch Marks 177.4 ml 6 oz, oz. per oz., THIS is the more effective(I found strivectin to be at best a great moisturizer), but also much more expensive(oz per oz). And along more economical lines I would never hesitate to recommendOlay Total Effects Night Firming Cream for Face & Neck - 1.7 fl oz for smooth and soft skin.
I am hoping to see this on some sort of special offer again, that would make me feel better about ordering something this costly in these times, but I do like it and want to continue with it. Also there was no signs of any skin irritation for me.
The ingredients for those needing that info is listed on the product details, but just in case I have copied and pasted:
