Philosophy When Hope is not Enough Hyaluronic & Peptide Capsules

I am a big fan of using capsules for skin care ingredients. You know the product is fresh, you use the correct amount and you are adding the active ingredient you want without a bunch of other stuff. As someone who breaks out very easily, I can’t layer moisturizing products on my skin.

Philosophy has a new capsule with Hyaluronic Acid & Peptides and it is getting great reviews. It is a bit expensive (let’s hope for a kit soon), but what a terrific way to add these two anti-aging products to your skin care regimen. I am already using and enjoying the philosophy retinol capsules.

This has Pentapeptide, which is the same tpe of peptide found in philosophy When Hope Is Not Enough Serum, philosophy Save Me and philosophy When Hope Is Not Enough SPF 20.

Here are the Ingredients: Dimethicone, Cyclopentasiloxane, Cetearyl Dimethicone Crosspolymer, Ethylhexyl Palmitate, Sodium Hyaluronate, Myristoyl Pentapeptide 8, Myristoyl Tetrapeptide 8, Methyl Methacrylate/Glycol Dimethacrylate Crosspolymer, Silica Dimethyl Silylate, Butylene Glycol, Hexylene Glycol, Caprylyl Glycol, Phenoxyethanol.

Hyaluronic Acid provides and promotes moisture to the skin. It can draw moisture under the skin and “plump” it out (temporarily). If you are using this product to diminish the apprerance of fine lines and wrinkles, it should be used in the AM before your moisurizer, sunscreen, makeup. The directions from philosophy say to apply it to clean, dry skin.

philosophy says that, according to their study, “100% found the product increased their skin smoothness, 100% found the product increased their skin softness and 75% found that they had a more even skin tone.”

I haven’t tried it yet, but plan to in the near future. If you have tried it, please share your review either in the comments here or at Philosophy Skin Care Reviews.
