General comments
The very mixed reviews on this treatment range from very positive to very negative, with many in the latter category. Some users complain about redness, and some about a lack of acne-fighting effects. This product does not contain benzoyl peroxide, instead using beta glucan and lactic acid as the main ingredients. It appears to be intended for acne sufferers who are allergic to benzoyl peroxide, and for sufferers of adult acne. The manufacturer states that it is intended for those with "moderate acne".

FDA-approved agents
Benzoyl peroxide is often a very effective ingredient in an acne treatment, but Philosophy does not contain it. It does contain salisylic acid and glycolic acid.

Lasting effects
In the opinion of Acne Cures Guide, the product will cease working immediately when use is discontinued.

Natural ingredients
The treatment does include a number of natural ingredients, such as sugarcane extract and orange extract. These are mainly antioxidant substances that enliven the skin and kill bacteria, although their effects in skin products have not been scientifically verified. They should contribute to the effectiveness against acne.

Side effects
Some users have reported redness, soreness, dryness, and irritation of the skin when using Philosophy, and others have experienced that the acne got worse. The serum may cause a short burning sensation when it is applied.

Fragrance
Some of the products have a very sharp, chemical fragrance.

Noticeability
The products appear invisible on the skin.

Completeness
The treatment comes with a moisturizer, a facial cleanser, a blemish gel, and a hydrogen peroxide cream. It attacks acne with a well defined strategy.

Price
Philosophy has the lowest price of the products we have compared.

Conclusion
This product is recommended if you are sensitive or allergic to benzoyl peroxide, which is one of the most effective acne-fighting substances. In the opinion of Acne Cures Guide, the price advantage does not weigh up for the possible side effects and the possible lack of effectiveness.
