As I mentioned in my introduction, I've got an obsession with Therapy Systems products so it's no surprise that I entrust the moisture of my skin to them and their amazing line. Let me give you a little back story on who they are and what they do before I begin. Therapy Systems is a high-end skin care and makeup line started in Nashville, TN by Linda Roberts (read more about the creation of TS by following the link on her name). What makes them stand out, and quite frankly makes their products appeal to celebs like Faith Hill, Leann Rimes, Ashley Judd, etc. is that they only do short runs of product. So no longer are you buying something off the shelf that you haven't a clue how long it took it to get from factory to shelf and then how long it's actually been sitting there, you know it's the freshest stuff out there and your skin really does reap the benefits. If nothing else has worked for you, try this stuff out!
First things first, let's get down to packaging. Therapy Systems is in the process of redoing a lot of their packaging so I don't know what will happen with it once they're done, but right now it comes in a beautiful glass jar which I love as I feel it really does give this moisturizer the elegance it deserves. They also sell it in a travel pump style for a few dollars less (it's out-of-stock right now). I know it says they're both 2 ounces, but I just feel like I'm getting more in the glass jar, and I want to feel like I have control over the amount of product I dispense and with the jar I can do that. With that said, the pump is likely more sanitary as you're not dipping your fingers in over and over again.
Okay, so now I can get to the good stuff. When you put this on your face the first thing you're likely to notice is going to be the amazing smell. Reason being is that it's infused with the fresh scent of real oranges and it smells delightful. Actually, It smells so amazing I would want to put it on my face if only for the smell! But I also know how great it's been for my skin, so let me get serious here for a second. The citrus actually does serve a purpose and creates an antibacterial environment on the surface of the skin, how wonderful is that, a scent that actually serves a purpose?! The moisturizers penetrate the skin leaving no residue and it's really perfect for nearly any skin type. I've also talked to some of the aestheticians at Therapy Systems who say that this moisturizer actually redistributes your oil to your dry spots and really helps to create an even surface. I think it works wonderfully under any type of makeup and over any of my nightly active ingredient products! I just LOVE IT!
So, how much is this going to cost me you're thinking? Well, I'm not going to lie Therapy Systems is a high-end brand and you will pay for it, but to me it's worth it for what it's doing for my skin. Their glass jar Skin Normalizer 24 Hour is $48 and their pump style (which again, is sold out right now) is $42. Keep in mind, they'll both probably last you about 3-4 months depending on how much you use. So thats an average of $12-16 a month for the jar and $10.50-14 a month for the pump. That's not a whole lot when you think of it that way. I do find that I run out of moisturizer far faster than any other products of theirs, but I use it twice a day and I apply a moderate amount to my face and neck.
You can buy Therapy Systems products at the Mall in Green Hills at the store by the same name, at Private Edition, at any of the Cosmetic Markets here in Nashville or at therapysystems.com. They're also carried in a few other states, so check out this link on where to find them. Therapy Systems also has an amazing return policy. If you try something and you don't like it they'll exchange it for the first 30 days. So don't feel like you're stuck with something that doesn't work for you! They also give samples so you can try something before you buy it, which to me is THE BEST! I can't tell you how many friends and family I've gotten hooked on Therapy Systems because of their samples! Oh, and I can't forget their rewards program...you buy 12 Therapy Systems items and you get a $68 credit towards any Therapy Systems product!
Alright friends, thanks for reading! Let me know what you think!
