I got a little sample bottle of Purity ten years ago.  After all the hype about it on QVC, I was eager to try it.  Thought it was awful!

I used it about 6 years ago and it burned my eyes.  I am willing to bet that they changed an ingredient to save money.  That is what happens when a company is sold.  Same price or higher; cheaper ingredients.

I loved phylosophy products and have noticed the change in purity and the body lotions. I am not sure if it is my skin or the lotions but they seem very drying now and have caused some irritation on my upper arms. Its so sad to see good products changed.

I don't know about Purity but several years ago they changed the microdelivery wash. They added a lemony scent to it and I didn't like it as much.  It is just sitting there not getting used anymore.  I wonder why they feel the need to "fix" things that weren't broken.

I used Purity for a long time and like dit, but found it far too drying on my skin, so switched to Cerave

I stopped using all Philosophy when I looked at the label and saw the huge amount of colors. dyes and chemicals. No thanks!

I agree that the product burns my eyes, makes my face itch and leaves a greasy film residue.  Wouldn't use it again if they were giving  it away.  Also their skincare line of moisturizers etc and fragrance has changed and not for the better.  For me, it's sad but true.
