Customer Reviews

  • I really like the Bronze color better since i am usually tan, but this product is just so easy to use. Once the sponge runs out replacements are available. The coverage is unbelievable and makes my skin look great.

  • I have a very oily face with blemishes. I had given up on every makeup I could possibly tried...not only they added flaky powder on my oily face, they also caused more breakouts. This is the one and only thing that works on my face. Thanks to Philosophy - the supernatural. It has done its work supernaturally!

  • I recently ordered this product, and I am loving it! It's easy to apply and is so light-weight, it feels like I'm not wearing any makeup. Unlike what was written in another review, this make-up is not glittery. Also, I have acne-prone skin, but this product doesn't break me out.

philosophy message in a bottle special rainforest foundation edition shower gel

philosophy message in a bottle special rainforest foundation edition shower gel

From philosophy Cosmetics , philosophy Face , philosophy Foundation

philosophy's relationship with everyone at the rainforest foundation and those who help to fight to save the rainforest has become a very special one and close to our hearts at philosophy. we have decided to take our relationship one step further and sell the redesigned (sting tribute) message in a bottle solely to benefit the rainforest foundation and to honor sting and trudie styler for all the selfless work they have done to help save the rainforest as well as everyone who works for the foundation and helps to promote this cause. www.rainforestfoundation.org

message in a bottle is our mineral enriched, bath and shower gel scented with a romantic, mystical clean, crisp fragrance, inspired by rain water and the sea. it renews and refreshes...a feeling you might get by breathing in the pure, dewy air of the rainforest. this special edition message in a bottle is exclusive to philosophy.com and all proceeds will go to benefiting the rainforest foundation.

Customer Reviews

  • I would first like to express what is most important to me personally with this product. I support any company that will donate 100% of their proceeds to charity and set off a chain reaction of good will! Message in a Bottle is one of six products that Philosophy carries in their charity line. This gives me and millions of others an opportunity to donate to a charity of choice as well as enjoy the product. The beauty of this particular product is that if you feel strongly about doing your part in helping to save the rainforest and supporting Sting and Trudy and everyone at the rainforest foundation as Philosophy does, you may do so through Philosophy's tribute. $20 well spent.

    Message in a Bottle is an ocean enriched bath gel/bubble bath with blue algea, sea kelp and spirulina. The fragrance reminds me of a fresh, ocean spa scent. Not everyone will like this scent of course, but I was surprised to find that I found the scent very relaxing and spa-like. I usually buy Philosophy's "food scents", such as philosophy cinnamon buns shampoo, conditioner, & shower gel.

    Message in a Bottle is also a great gift idea because of it's important cause and its unique bottle. If you know someone that likes the ocean or the rainforest or Sting or the spa, you are in luck! The clear plastic bottle has a statement written on the front using the titles of some of Sting's hit songs as a tribute to Sting as follows:

    Message in a Bottle

    philosophy: We thank you for helping to preserve the rainforests, our "Fields of Gold". Every song the forest sings brings a "Brand New Day". We must never lose sight of the value of the rainforest for with "Every Breath We Take" we are reminded of its poetry and genius. Mostly we thank you for purchasing "Message in a Bottle". It is your way of helping to preserve the rainforest.

  • I always notice this fragrance gets mixed reviews, and I think that is okay. It's a distinctive smell. Not everyone enjoys a musky but clean scent. I use this particular fragrance on a warm sunny day, because it's not fruity or flowery, so it won't attract bugs. It's a very clean scent that both men and women can use and enjoy. It's strong enough that it stays on the skin, and gives you a fresh from the shower smell all day long (think irish spring but better). I usually use this particular gel sparingly since it's very hard to find. It's well worth the splurge, because one bottle can last a long time.

  • I don't think there could be a more pleasant smelling bubble bath around~ It's not a heavy scent. It's not masculine or feminine. Definitely not floral. Perfect in every way, philosophy's message in a bottle is a real winner! (I know it is sold as a shower gel, but I think it works better as a bubble bath.)

Philosophy The Present Skin Perfector 2oz

From philosophy Cosmetics , philosophy Face , philosophy Foundation Primers

the present skin perfector

the present formula was originally created for the medical market to give patients with bumpy or irregular skin a smoother skin surface. this product lays down a smoother layer of "second skin" that smoothes out skin irregularities and fine lines.

the present is essentially a "clear makeup" for flawless skin. it is formulated to be used as a last step prior to any makeup to form an invisible barrier that "seals in" moisture for chronically dry skin and active ingredients from treatment products. it keeps out harmful environmental elements by acting like an invisible band-aid. it also contains lysozyme, a natural antimicrobial agent to keep skin radiantly "clear."

you need this product if:

you want to "pave the surface" of your skin for your foundation or powder

you want a protective layer to keep the good stuff in and the bad stuff out

you want to look 100% better, wearing 50% less makeup

you enjoy an oil free moisturizer

your skin is oily or prone to break-out

you do a lot of air travel and need to "seal in" your moisturizer.

Ingredients: water (agua), cyclomethicone, behenyl alcohol, dimethiconol, cetyl dimethicone, lysozyme, sodium citrate, peg-12 dimethicone, peg/ppg-18/18 dimethicone, lavendula augustifolia (lavender) oil, propylene glycol, diazolidinyl urea, methylparaben, propylparaben.

Customer Reviews

  • i used variety of diffent primers..

    and this one does make my skin feel minty-fresh as i put it on.

    but after 2mins(like the direction says) it drys out ;

    i whether recommend you M.A.C primer

  • Great product! It does not make my skin break-out AND after applying I don't need foundation! It gives your skin an air-brushed look, minimizes pores, evens skin tone, etc. Word of caution: Make sure your face is COMPLETELY dry and use a smaller amount than you think you need.

Customer Reviews

  • I purchased this in hopes to smooth out the tiny pores on my nose.

    It works like magic! This time of year I am a self tanner. I put on my self tan first to a clean face. Wait for it to dry. Then I put on my Philosophy The Present Clear Makeup. You have wait two full minutes, then you can apply foundation if you like. I use a tinted moisturizer and follow with Bare Escentuals Mineral Veil.

    This stuff will fill in your pores and leave your face looking very smooth. Before I did not enjoy seeing my face up close because of those pores...you know what I am talking about, those things you see when you are in great lighting and looking into your compact! With this product you can not see them, I am amazed!!!

    I have had no adverse reactions to this product and I have been using it over a month now. My skin is normal to dry.

    I had tried a sample of this product before purchasing. When I finally ordered, I was a little saddened that Philosophy had removed the wonderful lavender-like fragrance. It has zero smell.

    I am a Product Junkie - I highly recommend this one!!! Don't forget to try their cleanser also, Purity Made Simple. It is the BOMB. Very mild and works fantastic.

  • I had seen them use this product on QVC and I was interested in it. Finally broke down and got it and I must say this product delivers! It made my very sensitive skin smooth out and just glow. My pores look so much smaller. The redness in my face is gone. For a quick out the door in a hurry look, this one is the best.

  • After reading the positive reviews of this primer, I was excited to try it out before my upcoming wedding. I used it as directed and liked the results. My make-up lasted all day without touch-ups. My skin was in good condition, but after about 2 weeks of daily use of this product, my chin broke out with large, swollen pimples that were deep under the surface. I stopped using the product and my chin has since cleared up. Is this a scientific study? No, but it is my experience. I may consider using it when I get married, but I will be trying other primers also.

Customer Reviews

  • This is pretty good. It really does smoothe out your skin and hide pores before you put on foundation. It is a little orangey though, so I really don't use it by itself. The added sunscreen is great too.

  • This is, hands down, the best makeup I've ever used. I like my make up to be very light yet make me look a lot better than I do. This product erases pores, blends in all the little different colored spots and makes me look much younger than my 61 years.

  • After about a week there was a noticable change in my skin, it was soft and really looked healthy. People even commented. I use it under the supernatural powder and it is light and great. I do not have perfect skin, in fact I hate my pores, but this looks great!

Customer Reviews

  • I tried this at a Sephora in NYC during a vacation and was AMAZED at how a powder could make my face look so pure and flawless. As soon as I got back home, I found a local Sephora near me and picked this up. It's worth every single penny. Not only does it look amazing, but it goes on your face so soft and gentle. It's pure magic. I LOVE this foundation and besides Bare Escentuals, I wouldn't want to put anything else on my face. If you want to look like you have absolutely gorgeous, flawless, poreless skin - buy this!

  • I started out using Bare Escentuals powder foundation and then switched to Philosophy's Supernatural Airbrushed Canvas spf15. This seems to give me a little more coverage than the other powder makeup brands. I have problem skin and some scarring, along with dark circles. So my main goal was to find a light powder foundation that felt good on the skin, but also gave me the coverage that I needed. This foundation comes packaged with a sponge as the applicator, which is why I think it gives better coverage. The powder itself feels really silky. The shades blend well onto the face. The staying power of this foundation is wonderful. I can put it on early in the morning and it is still where I put it in the evening with minimal touch-ups. And lets face it, all women do touch-ups whether they need it or not. The face takes on an airbrushed look. This, too, is another one of must haves. I haven't found anything else that measures up to this product and believe me...my makeup area looks like the makeup section at the local beauty store.

  • I am a girl who grew up without make up and without anyone to teach me about facial hygiene - so as a result I've got acne scars and redness that I need to cover up with make up. It took me a while before I discovered mineral make up and I took a chance, having tried everything else, and went for it.

    And I never will go back.

    I used Bare Escentuals for a while and before that Urban Decay - both worked marvelous. I tried this because I wanted something separate from B.E. and hadn't bought anymore U.D. and I heard glowing reviews about Philosophy's mineral make up.

    Whatever worked for them did not work for me. It made me looked caked and pasty and didn't exactly match my tone like the other two brands did beautifully. On top of that, it actually made me break out worse than any make up did before.

    So, try it out, you might love it. I sure as hell didn't.
