Most Helpful Positive Review Out darn spot! I've been using strictly philosophy products for 10 years and love almost everything (sorry, Miracle Worker is too heavy for me). I've had a small dry patch on my cheek that nothing would ever get rid of until I started using Renewed Hope in a Jar overnight moisturizer and Renewed Hope in a Jar daytime moisturizer. Now it's shrinking daily and almost gone!
Most Helpful Critical Review Clogged pores and made me break out I was looking for a new nighttime moisturizer because I was waking up with extremely dry and flaky skin. I liked a lot of other Philosophy products, so I thought I would give this a shot.
My skin type is fair, dry and very sensitive with some large pores.
I tried this out for a full week. The first thing I noticed is it applied extremely tacky and heavy. It never fully absorbed even though I was only using a pea sized amount of product for my face and neck. My pores were noticeably larger and clogged after three days. Also, after three days I broke out all over my nose and chin. I continued use thinking it may have been something I ate, or it was that time of the month. After a full seven days I still had pimples with new eruptions. I couldn't take it so I stopped use. This past week and a half I went back to my old moisturizer routine; I still have the dry skin in the morning, but all of my pimples have subsided again and now I have to get rid of a couple new scars...
long story short; I started my week with no pimples and a bit of texture. Three days later = clogged pores and pimples.

So I want to absolutely adore this product. I like the consistency and scent (could be strong for some) and it is moisturizing. HOWEVER it pills when used after ANY other product I have. I currently use CeraVe retinol and it pills like crazy no matter what. Huge disappointment since I really want my retinoid included in my routine.
Love this product! 5

Great night cream! 5
crazydoglady1 from Texas
I've been using this cream for a few weeks, and it is fantastic! My skin feels great and refreshed when I wake up each morning. The cream is easy to apply and isn't oily.
Scent too strong! 3
Beansprout from Near Pittsburgh, PA
Nice night cream but scent is too strong! Same for the day cream. This product is new for me. I absolutely love "The Present" which has a lavender scent in a primer. Wish this cream had the same scent.
Wonderful 5
Rebukus from Tampa
I've been using this product for over a year and am still getting compliments on how refreshed my skin looks. This is not a small feat at 64!
Don't Waste Your Money 3
Alyssa from US
This night cream is VERY heavily scented. It gives me a headache to use it on my face. The moisture level is okay, nothing impressive. It sits on top of the skin for awhile after application. Not for me; not even worth the sale price I bought it for.
Awesome moisturizer! 5
Kayak9 from Minnesota
Light but yet very full of moisture. Not heavy with fragrance and doesn't irritate the skins

Favorite overnight moisturizer! 5
jess1129 from Dallas, TX
This moisturizer is hydrating without feeling too heavy. It doesn't leave my skin feeling oily like others I have tried. I use it every night!
Smells Great! 5
Little5 from California
I'm picking about the scent I put on my face, because it makes me feel fresh when it's nice. I put face oil on under this, and it absorbs into my skin too.
Love it! 5
RebI from Arizona
I look forward to washing my face at night because I love putting this on after! It smells so good and soaks in nicely. I recommend!
This is Awesome 5

Potential! 4
Lara Lou from Illinois
It's too soon to tell how well this product works which is why I gave it 4 stars. So far so good! It is more luxurious than other night creams I've tried.
Hydrating for oily skin 5
Huntress678 from New Mexico
I've been using this product often on for a couple of years. I love the way it glides over my skin. I have normal to oily tea zone combination skin. I wake up with my skin feeling hydrated and not oily at all.
Pretty nice 4
Nata from Ohio
I bought this product to see if it made a difference and n my skin at night. It is a really nice product. I can't say that I noticed anything drastic but I have been getting breakouts around my chin from wearing a mask all day and I didn't like using the renewed hope in a jar at night because it is a little bit heavier. This does make my face feel so soft the next day and it does minimize my breakouts overnight. I have fairly big pores, didn't really see much difference with that. The scent is really light and nice and it doesn't feel overly greasy when applying. I do like this product a lot and intend to be a frequent buyer.
reliable and works 4

This overnight cream does the job. Helps my skin to be moisturized and prevents aging. It is a go to for me.
Really happy with this 5
tibbleam from Wisconsin
I bought without having used this before. I love the daytime renewed hope in a jar but wanted a nighttime moisturizer. It has a light fragrance, goes on very nicely, not thick or heavy. I hope to see continued results as time goes on.

Skin feels refreshed 5

I love Philosophy products - esp the moisturizers. This one makes my skin feel refreshed the next morning.
Soft skin! 5
Prairiegirl5 from undisclosed
I alternate this product with the original Hope in a Jar depending on my skins needs. This makes my skin so soft when i wake up in the morning. My pores almost disappear after use. This is a great night cream.

I use it twice daily, even though it is supposedly a nighttime moisturizer, I have never used a better product on my face.
