LOVE IT! Much better for me than the original Hope
I tried the trial kit and the original Hope In a Jar was like putting butter on my skin and my makeup was sliding everywhere. But THIS stuff was amazing! I had gotten a sample of it with my order. Thank goodness! Much lighter feel, with all the same glowing benefits. It really does make my skin glow...

I'll always come back to you
Despite knowing that nothing out there compares, occasionally I'll stray to another. But like a man who really needs a place to stay, I'll come crawling back apologizing profusely for ever having left. My skin loves you
I would buy it again and its easy to use.
Very easy to work with.
Dose of Wisdom Bouncy Skin Reactivating Serum
Really wanted to love this serum because I was told it's scientifically proven to make a difference. Unfortunately it has a fragrance that made my sinuses begin to run. Also, I have sensitive skin and this made my skin burn and itch.
My go to for last 12 years
I have used this cleanser for years. It is perfect for removing makeup and even eye makeup being very gentle. Non drying no greasy feel. Your skin feels clean. A small amount goes a long way
Tried and true favorite!
I have used this amazing cleanser for years. It is truly "one-step" as it cleanses my oily skin well, and also takes all my makeup off. I haven't used an eye makeup remover in years. I have converted my son to this cleanser for his acne prone skin.
