~The look of the product~ The bottle of this product does look considerably bland and not very glamorous and modern as you would expect for a considerably high priced face cleanser. It it a clear bottle (but looks cream with the product inside) with a plain black lid, the lid is one of those which you push down one side to reveal a little slit in the lid. The blurb on the front is "Purity made simple. Philosophy: purity is natural. we come into this world with all the right instincts. we are innocent, and therefore perceive things as they should be, rather than how they are. our conscience is clear, our hands are clean, and the world at large is truly ...  Read the complete review

When it comes to cosmetics or health and beauty products, I'm not the type to chop change the things I use, in order to try out new products. I tend to find something I like, and stick with it. It's only when I find a real bargain or bag a freebie that I decide to try something new. So it happened with the Purity One-Step Facial Cleanser, which I received free from a magazine giveaway. I have to say, this is the only way I would use this product, as its price tag (£28 for a 16 fl.oz. bottle from John Lewis) means I would never stretch far enough to buy it myself. This cleanser is made by the company Philosophy, who write on their website ...  Read the complete review

I love this cleanser. It's by Philosophy who are a skincare brand available in the UK through QVC or John Lewis. They are huge in America and as far as I know these are the only 2 channels you can get them in the UK. All Philosophy products come in a bottle or tube with lovely little philosophical writings on them. They look really nice and expensive. The cleanser can be bought in a 473 ml size for around £28 (as it's an American company they work in fluid ounces which is why it's such a random ml amount) but you can often get it as part of a kit on QVC. The cleanser is designed to gently remove makeup and cleanse the skin in one step which is great ...  Read the complete review

I am lazy - I love the idea of cleansing, toning and moisturizing my face twice a day, but the reality is, as a very busy mum with three kids I struggle to find time to cleanse and dry let alone tone and moisturize. My mum picked me up a bottle of this after I sent her on a mission to find me a cleanser, toner and moisturiser in one that would help my(then pregnant) dull skin to flourish. I was VERY unimpressed by the bottle to be honest. Don't get me wrong I love the words on the front and it really does separate it from any other brands, but it was just a bit plain, and if I had been looking for something on the shelves, I would have easily missed it. ...  Read the complete review

I have used the product many times over the years, as I love the Philosophy brand overall, whether that would be the fragrance, bodycare or skincare. What I like about this product is its simple and easy to use.Anyone with a busy life kids, work, other commitments would know that if you want to take care of your skin and have nice products, sometimes it can take time and many lotions and potions. I do not have the time for that. Anything I use I want to be quick and fast, and this is a good product for that as it is multi purpose, as the title suggests on the packaging, 3 in 1 cleanser for the face. On this picture it does not say 3 in 1 but maybe this is older ...  Read the complete review
