You can’t beat the smell of this product!
I love the way it makes my skin feel after I apply it. I’ve noticed a huge difference in my skin when I use it. And it makes me WANT to put on moisturizer in the morning. Finally committed to the largest jar after getting the smaller versions and I’m so happy.

love this
this moisturizer is really good. it goes on smoothly and isn’t heavy at all, especially given how creamy it is. i really love it after the clarifying mask because it pumps moisture back into my skin.

I love how thick and luxurious Philosophy Hope in a Jar feels—it's the perfect addition to my nighttime skincare routine. The creamy texture is so soothing, and a little bit truly goes a long way. While it’s suitable for both morning and night use, I especially enjoy how moisturizing it is before bed. My skin feels soft, hydrated, and pampered every time I use it.

Not worth it
Made my face burn and break out, strong fragrance so definitely would not recommend on sensitive skin.

Hope in a jar is not!
Used Nature in a jar for years, wonderful for dry skin. Hope in a jar was recommended but is not smooth at all. Skin flakes after a few days use and not flattering under makeup. Nature is a jar is no longer available and that is so disappointing. Why stop manufacturing a great product?

Love it!
I am 55 and my skin is better than it has ever been. I have combo skin, am Scandinavien, and live in Minnesota - humidity I knew I knew that youin the summer and harsh conditions in the winter. I have used it religiously every night for two years and I look younger now than I ever have. I have no blemishes, no dry spots. I will buy this for the rest of my life. Please do not stop making it!

What a disappointment.
I used this product for years before the company was sold and got away from it, then stopped. And have come back to it and decided to order it again. Because it used to be wonderful. But this actually made my skin drier. The fragrance is different and the results are certainly different. I am so disappointed; I used to give it five stars, and now I would return it if I could.

What Happened to Hope?
I have used Philosophy for many years, including Hope smooth-glow multi-tasking moisturizer. I have a chronic illness that affects my skin, so I have to be very careful with facial products. Hope has been one of the only products that always provided excellent results (lasting hydration and smooth healthy glow), while being gentle enough. I waited all the way until Black Friday to repurchase. I am so disappointed. This jar does not moisturize or give a healthy glow like usual. It does the exact opposite. No beautiful light and whipped texture as it’s supposed to have. It also doesn’t have the very distinctive fresh and clean scent that I love so much. It caused me to breakout with whiteheads all over my face, which is never a skin issue I have. Instead of being moisturized, my skin is dull, dry and patchy/flaky. I used to get compliments on my skin all the time and would recommend this to everyone! I especially recommended to people who suffer from my illness. I’ve always received many thanks for the referral. I am so disappointed. This is nothing like the product I loved and trusted!

Almost a staple in my morning routine
I do love this moisturizer. I wish it wasn’t in a jar since you have to make sure your hands are clean and it’s one of my first skincare steps. I would say that I would buy again and keep using in the beginning of the day, I’ve enjoyed incorporating it into my morning routine and it leaves me skin glowy and soft. I love philosophy products

Best face moisturizer!!
I have very sensitive skin. Nearly any sort of fragrance and my skin gets irritated. I took a chance on this cream and I do not regret it. This face cream goes on so smooth, like buttah. It has helped with skin discoloration & complexion. Truly grateful I found a cream that works for me. This is my holy grail.

Perfect facial moisturizer
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love that the scent is light and not overwhelming, packaging is cute and easy to open. Texture feels light not greasy. After applying for some days i definitely recommend, it hydrated my skin without leaving any greasy areas and is great for mix skin.

Great for summertime moisture.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Silky smooth texture, gentle scent, glass jar feels luxurious. Great for use in the morning and at night. Hydrating even though it's a lighter cream. The only drawback is that the packaging doesn't specify that this is a facial moisturizer, and I only learned this with a product search.

Starting with Hope
I cannot start my day without Hope, my moisturizer. I have used it for years. Before I started using it, I would get dry patches. Not anymore!
