Hellllo lovelies! All this eating and not enough posting on what’s been going on with my beauty arsenal. As a beauty blogger, I go to a TON of events for skin, makeup, and hair products (no really, a ton), so when a product stands out to me the way Philosophy’s new No Reason To Hide ones have, it’s kinda a big deal. Philosophy has always been one of my favorite brands for their multi-tasking products and cutesy, inspiring message on their packaging which always encourages one to love, feel beautiful, and have hope (like their best-selling Hope in a Jar, with accompanying message, “Where there is hope, there can be faith. Where there is faith, miracles can occur.”)
On the same thread, Philosophy is now on a confidence campaign. What does that mean? It’s a two-prong approach to A) try out their new products and see the difference it makes when you look in the mirror, but also to B) really reflect on what moments make you feel the most confident on their inside. So I did both –more on this in a minute!
Recently, I was invited to check out the launch of the newest from the brand, which includes their No Reason to Hide Multi-Imperfection Transforming Serum ($68) and accompanying Instant Skin-Tone Perfecting Moisturizer with SPF 20 ($45). The combo was developed to treat basically everything, from blotchiness, to enlarged pores, dark spots, and acne marks. In clinical studies, these products have shown:
• in 4 weeks: 88% of women showed a significant reduction in the appearance of red spots and blotchiness
• in 8 weeks: 94% showed a dramatic correction in the look of dark spots, revealing remarkably even skin-tone
• in 12 weeks: 100% of women showed transformative improvement on multiple skin imperfections
The serum contains a mix of niacinamide (vitamin B3 which helps eliminate dark spots), vitamin C (a powerful antioxidant), and salicylic acid (to shrink enlarged, darkened pores), and the moisturizer is kind of like a BB cream with is light tint (comes in light and medium for now but they will be rolling out more shades soon!) which also contains some of the same ingredients as the serum to also treat while it lightly conceals.
I’ve been using them for almost a month now, but in less than two weeks I could already tell a difference. The serum is lightweight and brightens, and the moisturizer is my favorite for its instant gratification. The medium shade is perfect for my skin and I’ve since foregone all foundations on the daily so what you see is mostly my own skin showing through. I seriously can’t stop touching my skin.
In celebration of the line, Philosophy also launched a Confidence Community on Facebook. Take their quiz to reveal your confidence personality, and you are automatically entered to win their sweepstakes, which includes:
• 1 grand prize: $2,500 Ann Taylor shopping spree, a year’s supply of No Reason To Hide and Philosophy fan favorites.
• 5 runner ups will receive a Philosophy cleanse, peel, treat package.
• 10 winners will receive No Reason To Hide serum and perfecting moisturizer.
