Review 1 for Great Skin Is In™ Deluxe Set for Normal/Combination Skin
Best Set Ever!
-05.21.13
Quick Take: good value
I love this set. Usually when you purchase a set with multiple products, there are a few that don't get used. I use every drop of every product. My skin has never looked better. I'm fighting fine lines, dry patches and an oily t-zone and this set addresses all my concerns. I tried switching to a different brand that was on sale and broke out. This is the 4th set I've purchased and it's a really great value as I would spend much more if I bought them separately.

Review 2 for Great Skin Is In™ Deluxe Set for Normal/Combination Skin
Definitely Great Skin!
-08.01.12
Quick Take: good value, travel-friendly
I absolutely love this set. My skin usually goes from oil to dry to both with acne here and there. I have tried a lot of facial products over the years and this one is the best I have found so far. It leaves my skin feeling clean and soft.
The only "cons" I have about this product (hence the 4 stars): that these products do have an aroma to it. I don't mind it, but others might and I wasn't expecting it since I had read reviews saying that it has no smell. And it does leave my face a little oliy in the morning (using the purity, serum & moisturizer).
Overall, I definitely recommend at least giving the purity cleanser and their moisturizers a try if you haven't already.

Review 3 for Great Skin Is In™ Deluxe Set for Normal/Combination Skin
Great Skin is In!!
-04.15.12
I often have trouble with my skin. I work outside and my face gets really dirty, I am also starting to get brown age spots. These products work wonderfully. Hope in a Jar is an awesome product, it does not make my skin greasy and it doesn't make me break out. Hope is not enough is also making some of the lines on my neck disapear. All in all this is a great product and has really been keeping my skin nice! I will most definatly buy it agian!

Review 4 for Great Skin Is In™ Deluxe Set for Normal/Combination Skin
Very picky, love EVERYTHING in the set!
-04.14.12
Quick Take: good value
I am like I said a very picky gal about my skincare for my face, I have combination shin and am starting to see a few miserable little crows feet beginning. That being said, I started investigating some of the sets for anti-aging. I have highly sensitive skin, and these products impressed me. I typically break out when I change products. Not with these. They are wonderful, the smell doesn't bother me in the least like the others and I am VERY particular about the stink of things for women! Makes my skin feel better then it did when I was 18. Just what I was looking for. Nobody mentioned the Microdelivery peel: it's seriously fantastic. Have already bought more of the products.

Review 5 for Great Skin Is In™ Deluxe Set for Normal/Combination Skin
haven in a box!
-03.16.12
Quick Take: good value, good for sensitive skin, good for acne
skin: fair, NC20, combination, oily nose, hormonal acne on chin & jawline, scars from hormonal acne, random dry patches, pretty sensitive.
I can't rave enough about this kit!
I was going to get the $68 kit, but they were out... so I got this one. Such a great price for all the products you truly get! They are the full sized products too, so they will last a LONG time!
Purity: love, love, love this cleanser. I was recommended this by an esthetician. I use it both night and morning. At night, use one dime size amount to take off makeup, AND use another dime size to cleanse with clarisonic. My bristles on the clarisonic are completely clean (no makeup), so I know that it truly is getting all of the makeup off! Gets a 5, 6 if it were possible!
Help me: warning, pretty strong. For the first week, use every 3 days. For a second week, use every 2 days. After 2-3 weeks you should be able to use every day... or maybe 2 days on, one day off. It's pretty strong and will cause you to peel and get red if you over do it. After your skin gets used to it, it's AMAZING. It has helped my acne so much! I hardly have breakouts anymore, and when I do they go away super fast. I'm also finally noticing that my acne scars are starting to fade. That's exactly what this is meant to do! It's easy to give up on this if you start out using too much, or if you peel a bit... but remember, it's retinol, it will do that if you're not careful. When used correctly, gets a 5 from me! (when I first started it was way too strong and I hated it, then the esthetician told me how to use it and that's what changed my mind)
When hope is not enough: ummm... heaven in a little GLASS (be careful) bottle! Having combo/sometimes oily skin, this made me a little leery. However, it absorbs so quickly into the skin and makes it SO soft! I use both am/pm, even though the kit recommends am only. Definitely gets a 5.
Hope in a jar: it's ok. Not the best moisturizer I've ever used but it does the job. I'd give it a 4.
Hope with SPF: great for "sunscreen" when you don't have much else to do. I wouldn't use this under makeup, because it's just too slippery for me. Gives the skin a nice glow, but unfortunately I need makeup so I don't use it all that often. Not the best scent ever. Gets a 4.
KIT AS A WHOLE: amazing. All these products are great, and work better with the use of the others. As a whole, my skin has changed so much for the better! I wish I had some before and after pictures to share! Give it a try!

Quick Take: good value
this stuff is great. i have never been a skin care kinda gal but as i'm approaching my late late 30s i'm realizing i need a little help. there is one tiny wrinkle that drives me crazy. after 2 weeks of using this kit it's basically gone. my skin is gorgeous! the only thing is some of the product smells funny - but the smell doesnt linger. it's worth it!

Review 9 for Great Skin Is In™ Deluxe Set for Normal/Combination Skin
Review 10 for Great Skin Is In™ Deluxe Set for Normal/Combination Skin
Fixed My Face
-01.26.12
Quick Take: good value
I was complaining to a friend about how my face was looking awful lately. I had acne that I couldn't get rid of and i just felt like my skin was dull and starting to look weathered. My girlfriend raved philosphy's skin care kit and told me I had to try it out. Being someone who is not big into using a million products, I decided to give in, spend the money, and try it out. Boy was I glad I did. It's been two weeks and I have already seen a huge improvement in my skin. My acne has cleared up and my skin just feels overall great. I highly recommend it.

Review 11 for Great Skin Is In™ Deluxe Set for Normal/Combination Skin
Amazed
-01.19.12
Quick Take: soothing, highly effective
I have never used a wrinkle cream before, but desperately needed one, and this set gave actual results in just 1 day! By the end of 1 week, there was a significant improvement, and no adverse reactions. I highly recommend this. Plus the hope in a jar is super fluffy and soothing.

Review 13 for Great Skin Is In™ Deluxe Set for Normal/Combination Skin
Good stuff!
-01.04.12
Quick Take: good value
I had wanted retinol, and ended up buying this set. I really like it, although I would prefer a night cream that is more for dry skin. The Purity cleanser is great - eye makeup comes right off without a bunch of scrubbing.

Review 15 for Great Skin Is In™ Deluxe Set for Normal/Combination Skin
Amazing!
-12.22.11
I have tried so many things for my skin. Bought this and am so impressed! Struggled with break outs and just a lack luster complexion, now my skin is gorgeous and clear! I was hesitant to get this because of the firming and anti aging qualities but I LOVE IT!! Thank you philosophy!!

Review 17 for Great Skin Is In™ Deluxe Set for Normal/Combination Skin
-11.23.11
Loved the Purity and the firming serum, however, the Hope in a Jar smells awful (to me). Philosophy line seems to be too strong for me. Many of their products give me red splotches on my face.

amazing
-09.22.11
Quick Take: good value
I used this only 2 weeks and the resukt is obviously positive. My skin is firmer and it also minimized pore on my nose. I need a good anti-aging which also diminish redness or unsmooth skin, This one is my lil' angel.
