Quick Take: a little sticky used alone, slightly moisturizing
i have used save me in the past along with the philosophy face wash and the vitamin c microderm scrub-my results were ok-now i use save me with shiseido purifying face wash and the balancing softner and omgosh!!! my face after one night was more even, less red and more firm-it also made some of my acne go down-i think the shiseido softner plays a big role in allowing the save me to penetrate your skin deeper, thus giving you better results and clearer skin-i like this product, but with the combo of the shiseido and the save me-its great!!! cant wait to see my skin by the end of this week-i would highly recommend others who have moderate acne, post acne scarring and also want anti-aging to give all of this a try! hope it works for you too~

wow- 03.05.10
Quick Take: non-oily
Ihave been using this for 3 months. I & others have seen a vast improvement in my skin. My derm even asked what i had been using. I first started using it every other day to make sure my sensitive skin could adjust. after a few weeks I used it every day and noticed that my skin was brighter & more evenly toned. Buy it!

Amazing!- 02.18.10
Quick Take: non-oily, can be used as spot treatment, acne scar treatment
This product really did save me! I went on a high androgen birth control pill two years ago and it caused cystic breakouts all around my chin and mouth that left acne scars and red bumps under my skin. When I went off the pill, it stopped any new breakouts, but my skin wasn't improving otherwise. I found Save Me and decided that it was worth trying... It's only been 2 weeks, but I'm already noticing a huge difference! Though it did seem to make my break outs worse in the first week, this was just the retina that was helping all the acne deep inside my skin come to the surface (so don't get discouraged if this happens and keep using the product!) On week two I noticed that more than half the bumps underneath my skin had disappeared and my acne scars were a lot less noticeable. I even started to wear less concealer! My skin is also a lot more radiant, smooth and firm; my pores are also less noticeable. I feel like I have my old skin back and I love it! I recommend this to anyone who is dissatisfied with the after effects of acne! Make sure you also moisturize and ex-foliate to get the most out of this product.

Quick Take: non-oily, moisturizing
Moisturizes & evens out skin texture & color. Even makes fine lines disappear. All with no irritation whatsoever. LOVE this product - but the last one I ordered was only about 10% full. Not good when you're completely out & 300 mi. from the nearest store.

Night cream perfection!- 02.02.10
Quick Take: non-oily, moisturizing
No stink, no glop, no sting. Just smooth overnight moisture. It soaks in instantly, and goes to work to smooth my skin. My facial tech tells me what great skin I have, and I attribute that to Philosophy care. My skin at nearly 48 is youthful. This product helps with fine lines, redness on my cheeks, and smoothness. All good!

I have been using Save Me for a few years, and continue to be impressed with how well it works to diminish fine fines around my mouth and eyes. Thanks to Sephora for selling this product.

Quick Take: non-oily, moisturizing, brightning
I love this stuff. Keeps my pores clear and no breakouts at all. It give my oily skin enough moisture without the greasy feeling. Helped me with my melasma spots and makes my fair complexion bright. I wanted to order online so I went directly to Philosophy.com and they told me it's discontinued. Very disappointing when you find something that works for you it no longer will be made :(

Great- 01.19.10
Quick Take: non-oily, moisturizing, antiaging
This cream is great for the night time...it has everything that i need, antiaging and moisturizing treatment all in once. I'm only 25 years old and my face is sensitive oily so it combines retinol with other products that work perfectly with my skin.

Amazing Product- 01.18.10
Quick Take: non-oily, moisturizing, evens skin tone and texture
This product really did save my skin. I had awful skin after my last pregnancy - redness, blemishes, dry, dull - you name. I had read some really great reviews on this and decided to try it myself and I am so glad that I did. My skin is now bright, even and glowing. BUT - I do want to add something - make sure you are taking care of your skin (ie, washing am/pm, exfoliating, moisturizing, etc). This item is not cheap and if you are expecting it work for you then you really need to use it properly or you're wasting money. You can't just slap this on and expect it to work miracles - you still have to do your part in taking care of your own skin.

this does help- 12.29.09
Quick Take: moisturizing
It does restore brightness, plus it seems to hold in moisture. It helps to minimize fine lines and give a more youthful appearance. Half a pump is enough to use on face.

So far I have used this product 3 times and the lines on my forehead are less noticable and my pores seem to be smaller. This stuff does dry your skin out so you will need to moisturize. I will continue to use!

I have used this for a few years now - off and on. Here in S. Fla, even with sunblock my skin gets blotchy and freckles... This product helps a lot and I use it nightly usually in the summer.
