description for Philosophy The Present

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.

ThatGuy USA Pros: blends well, good consistency, good coverage, long lasting Cons: cakey/heavy

Smooth Complexion - 12/14/2012 4:18:50 AM So, ThatGuy might use this when he's going out at night. I have fair skin and some things on my face show easily. This really just evens out my complexion, but it also lightens up my face (think whiter). Some wrinkles go away and also blemishes. It's like a second skin over your face, and because of that it can feel heavy or cakey. Nothing wrong with a guy being vain!

Great product - 4/19/2011 9:04:41 AM I found this product to do exactly what it describes. I put a thin layer over my moisturizer and under the Supernatural Powder and my skin comes out looking flawless! It covers my red, rosacea covered cheeks and makes my skin look airbrushed. It does not feel heavy at all. I only wait a couple of minutes before applying the Supernatural and it does not cake one bit!
