    I am shocked by the fact that I like this product so much. I can't stand most everything Philosophy, but I got a couple of samples of this, and thought, why not give it a try. I have bought and...

    I was happy to receive a sample of this product in a swap package. I have been wanting to try it, and I did that this morning, so curious to see what a Clear Foundation would look like. At...

    I had high hopes for this stuff and at first I thought it really came through. My skin looked great and it seemed to be more even than normal. After using this for a couple days, I had a God...

    I used to think this was HG material... since it seemed to make my pores vanish...but then it broke me out in tiny little bumps. I guess my skin needs to breathe after all!

    Fabulous. I recieved a sample of this with another Philosophy order and I need to get a full size tube. I don't even have to wear foundation if I put this on. I'm not sure how it happens, but it...

    Made my skin look worse - dulled the areas I put it on (t-zone, larger pores) horribly and I had to wash it off. Clinique's pore minimizer is much better for me, and I'm not totally impressed by...

    This product is great for me in this humid Texas heat. I can't wear my normal base (MAC Studio Fix) in the summer; I spend a lot of time outdoors and tend to sweat my makeup off. Then I found The...

    I DON'T think people understand what this is. It's a MAKE UP PRIMER. It's not a "clear foundation" this sets the stage for you to apply foundation by making your skin smoother. It does an excellent...

    I can't figure out for the life of me what purpose this serves, other than confusing the crap out of people and raising their hopes for othing. First of all, the name is misleading. It is NOT...

    I've never been one to "follow" a skin care regimen. However, once I started using Philosophy products, I was hooked: good price, non irritating to my slightly sensitive skin, no overwhelming...

    This primer just doesn't coat the skin sufficiently, especially for a primer targeting rough, acne-proned skins. I don't like the feel of this product on my skin. Primers shouldn't have powdery...

    Some little red bumps popped up on my face after using this for two days. Since I break out very rarely, I have to think this is the culprit. Performance-wise I thought this was subpar. Under my...
