philosophy Hope In a Jar Smooth Glow Moisturizer - SPF 30 - 2oz - Ulta Beauty

I bought this since I couldn't locate the Ultimate Miracle Worker cream on the website. The smell is stronger than the other product, this felt heavy and greasy on my skin compared to other products. I would've preferred the Miracle product over this any day.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love that the scent is light and not overwhelming, packaging is cute and easy to open. Texture feels light not greasy. After applying for some days i definitely recommend, it hydrated my skin without leaving any greasy areas and is great for mix skin.

Great product easy to use and feels smooth and absorbs easily in the skin

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Silky smooth texture, gentle scent, glass jar feels luxurious. Great for use in the morning and at night. Hydrating even though it's a lighter cream. The only drawback is that the packaging doesn't specify that this is a facial moisturizer, and I only learned this with a product search.

I cannot start my day without Hope, my moisturizer. I have used it for years. Before I started using it, I would get dry patches. Not anymore!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First time trying any Philosophy products the cream is soft and smooth not runny pretty thick. Smell is minimal a little goes a long way. My face loves this cream I like when products come in glass.

This product really helped with the texture of my skin, and the packaging is beautiful. The ingredients make for a really nice scent. And it even helps with sun protection!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am in love with this SPF! It smells really good and sets up the perfect base for my makeup. Even when I don’t wear makeup, it leaves such a beautiful glow on my skin. Best of all, there is zero pilling throughout the day or under my makeup like I have had with other SPFs.

This moisturizer is very rich and creamy without feeling greasy. A little goes a long way. I use it morning and night on my face and neck. It really does leave a healthy glow on the skin. The added benefit of SPF is a bonus.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was very pleasantly surprised that the product did not have a strong sun screen scent and didn’t cause my skin to breakout or get oily. I do prefer products that don’t have fragrance, but besides that it is a pretty clean ingredient.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ugh, Houston summers are brutal, right? I feel like I'm gonna pass out, and I'm even getting sunburned without feeling it! But hey, I remembered I had some moisturizer, and it's amazing. The smell is nice and light, and it soaks in fast, unlike some others. I'm totally buying more.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great moisturizer by philosophy. Leaves my skin glowing but not oily or wet looking. Love using this both in the morning and at night. Not heavily perfumed scent very light which adds to why I love it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really wanted to love this moisturizer, but it broke me out. I love the packaging and texture of this product, but I feel like it sits on top of my skin rather than absorb. I think the spf is great.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love Love Love…. It is very moisturizing and works great on my skin. The package is pretty and lightweight, you can carry it everywhere. It’s not heavily scented either. Would highly recommend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] super nice packaging, very minimalist design, very use to open, I’ve had no issues with leaks or anything of the sort. as for the product itself, i love that it has spf included, it cuts out an extra step during busy mornings. the scent is super lightweight, very pleasant, and this cream leaves my skin feeling soft and refreshed!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been trying this moisturizer for a few weeks now and I love it! I only need a tiny bit to cover my whole face and it doesn’t leave it feeling greasy at all. I also have sensitive skin and this did not break me out. I would purchase this in the future.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love philosophy products I’ve been using even for a long time but I had never tried this moisturizer with sunscreen. I loved that it’s not heavy, smells light and fresh and doesn’t leave skin greasy or dry. It goes great under makeup and has sunscreen which I love. I also like that with continued use it smoothes out skin and it looks glowy and radiant. I have always liked their packaging too. Thank you INFLUENSTER and Philosophy for allowing me to try this product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love using this cream on a daily basis. It’s not too thick and perfect under my everyday make up. I personally really like the smell because it’s very fresh but light.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve really enjoyed using this multitasking moisturizer! It’s packed with pro-vitamin P, glycolic, and hyaluronic acids, and it truly delivers on its promises. My skin feels smooth, hydrated, and has a healthy, glowing appearance that lasts all day. I’ve noticed it has brought back a more youthful look to my skin, which I love. Overall, I’m very happy with the results and would definitely purchase this product again.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the Philosophy Hope in a Jar Smooth-Glow Multi-Tasking Moisturizer for a couple of weeks now, and it’s been a good addition to my routine. The texture is creamy but still feels lightweight, and it melts into my skin without leaving a greasy film. It layers well under makeup and gives me that smooth, slightly dewy finish I look for. One of the main things I noticed is the hydration. It really does deliver long-lasting moisture, and my skin feels comfortable throughout the day. Philosophy uses an enhanced hyaluronic acid in this formula, and I can tell the difference compared to basic moisturizers I’ve tried. On top of that, it has 2% glycolic acid, which gives a very gentle exfoliation. My skin looked a little clearer and brighter after the first week, and I didn’t have any irritation or tingling, which is usually my concern with acids. The brightening ingredients are a nice touch too. There’s a radiance complex with pro-vitamin P and tangerine peel extract, and I’ve noticed my skin looks more luminous overall. It’s not an intense glow, but more of a natural, healthy brightness. That said, I can see why longtime fans of the original Hope in a Jar might not love this as much. It doesn’t have the same “bounce” to the formula, and I’ve read some reviews saying it feels sticky or caused breakouts. I personally didn’t have those issues, but I do miss the simplicity of the original. For me, the pros outweigh the cons: • Texture: Creamy, fresh, and lightweight. • Hydration: Deep, lasting comfort. • Renewal: Gentle exfoliation that smooths without irritation. • Radiance: Subtle glow and brighter tone. • Everyday Use: Works great under makeup. Overall, I’d recommend this moisturizer if you want one product that hydrates, smooths, and brightens all at once. It’s not exactly the same as the original cult classic, but on its own, it delivers noticeable results and leaves my skin soft, refreshed, and radiant.
