Quick View: In honor of my 300th review, I am writing about my all time favorite skin care product that I would choose over any other if I had to make a choice. Philosophy When Hope and a Prayer Vitamin C Powder is the fountain of youth in a little jar. Seriously.

Full View: When I first discovered When Hope and a Prayer Vitamin C Powder, I couldn't figure out what the big deal was. I had creams with Vitamin C in them already so did I really need this stuff? Oh yes, I did. This powder mixes with anything – face cream, eye cream, hand and body cream or lotion, sunscreen, even foundation – and does amazing things for my skin.

The Product
This product comes in a tiny .25 ounce brown glass bottle and is snow-white powder. It comes with a teeny scoop and the directions say to mix it fresh each application. Vitamin C tends to turn brown and lose potency when mixed and not used immediately. I did some research and found that my Vitamin C creams didn't have nearly enough of the antioxidant in them to truly make a difference in my skin. I dumped them and started using When Hope and a Prayer Vitamin C Powder. My skin looks better now than five years ago. Honestly. I'm not just delusional because I'm old (almost 43).

I mix a scoop of this powder with my morning moisturizer and a tiny bit with my eye cream. About once a week, I will mix a scoop with my hand cream to detox and freshen my hands. I also use it on neck and chest, mixed fresh with whatever cream or lotion I am using. I feel a tiny tingle when I use this, nothing painful or irritating. My skin literally glows after I use it and, since I have been using it daily, my skin is former, clearer, more even toned, and looks less stressed. Dare I say I may even look younger than when I started to use this? Maybe not but I don't believe I have aged much in the year since I started my regiment. One little bottle lasts many months.

My Viewpoint
I'll go without dessert, I'll go without new shoes, I'll live without any new makeup, but I will NOT go without Philosophy When Hope and a Prayer Vitamin C Powder. It’s that good. I have used hundreds of products over the years and love several. However, my love for this stuff borders on obsession. I suppose, because it is a white powder with a tiny little scoop, it is addicting and gives me a rush. But a healthy (and less expensive) one that the other white powder. Ha! This is seriously the best thing you can do for your skin. I strongly believe it has changed my skin for the better in a radical way. 5 stars all the way and may I never run out. Withdrawal is so nasty, I have heard.
