New Formula for Philosophy microderm cleanser

I bought at the BOGO at Ulta last Sunday.  It is thicker with more grit and smells like a orange dreamsicle.  I think I may like it better.

Wonder if anybody from Philos ever said they planned to change the formula.

For someone like me with rosacea, the grit and fragrance would be a bad idea.

Me too!. Is the packaging the same...maybe just another version and they will keep the original. This works well with my rosacea and they have been presenting the original formula recently. I am not on facebook but if anyone is could you please let us know if the reps have any info.

Thanks for letting us know!

 Darn I missed the BOGO...oh well. I would like to try that. I currently have the 32oz of the old stuff and I have to give it a good shake every morning to mix the grit around Smiley Happy

Will look for it next time I'm up that way, thanks!

The packaging is the same but they have an orange sticker on it and it says  "new formula plus vitamin c".   The new formula is very thick and almost hard to squeeze out.  You won't waste any coming out too fast.  Someone with arthritis might have a problem getting it out.  I really like it so far.  Maybe compare the ingredients to see if there is something that would bother you if you are sensitive.  I had a problem with the old formula with the grit settling in the bottom and just having cleanser.
