I just wanted you to know that after using your stuff for over a year-- since last March-- my skin has never looked so non-adolescent. It's really the goods! Take care, and say hello to Deborah for me,
Keelan
Just a note to thank you for making sure that my order got processed in time to include the normal travel kit.
I received my order in record time (just two days!) and I'm very happy to be using Sage products again.
Thanks very much for your great service.

Thank you Barbara for getting back to me and taking the time on the phone to answer questions. I do so appreciate your expertise and your products are superb and have made all the difference in my skin. Thanks again..
Barb D
Thank you very much . I really do appreciate your time looking into my forgetfulness, and help with my questions. It was really exciting to talk to you. You rarely experience that level of personal service ...EVER! I am looking forward to receiving the F&B and smoothing creams. I trust your advice and products always. Thank you again, take care ~

I just had two clients tell me that I had the most beautiful skin they have ever seen, they thought I was 25 (I am 34). I LOVE SAGE!!!! Thanks for making such awesome products!!!!!!

I first ordered Sage products for my oldest daughter in October 2001, which makes it about 4 1/2 years. I started using the products too and now all three of my daughters use Sage. I hope that my 13 year old will never experience acne like her two older sisters and I did. I know they will never have the sun damage that I have as they have learned to use their Sage sunscreen every day. You are a great teacher and I thank you for the wonderful products and information you supply. We will never use anything but Sage on our faces - ever.
Sara
I just wanted to rave about the Eye& Lip Balm; I've been using it lately as a moisturizer for my whole face and I just love it; I hope you never stop making it as it is one my most beloved Sage products; Thanks for Sage and my ever so glowing skin!
Warmest regards :-)

I want to thank you so much for your help and your product. I have been using it since the 1st of April, and my skin is almost completely clear. Today I went out in public without makeup for the first time in years( and I am only 19). With your help I am now battling, and winning what you call stage 4 acne. My only concern is that I am now having a lot of dryness and pealing along my cheeks, chin, and nose. I didn't know if you could suggest a way to resolve this. Thanks again for your amazing product. I know this will change my life.
Sincerely,
Angela K
Thank you for producing such a wonderful product :) this is my 2nd tub/bottle, with the 1st tub (used to come in a tub form) I see very visible improvements to my under eye fine lines. the eye balm plumps the area very well :) yesterday I received the new tube in my mailbox & decided to try it on my face cos' I’ve been peeling rather bad due to retin-a & AHA. I woke up this morning to see all the flakes are gone & my face isn't peeling anymore! I'm thrilled to find Sage & once again, thank you :)

I just wanted to take a minute to thank you for your products and your customer service. I've been using Sage for almost 6 years now. I've strayed a few times thinking my skin could do as well on less expensive products or more natural products only to end up in tears once my skin reverted to its pre-Sage self. I finally decided I am forever done with using anything else on my skin. The cost is well worth it and the stress of breaking out I'm sure is much worse for my health than any preservative or chemical I might use. I recently broke out horribly from stress and an iodine thyroid scan (you helped me on the forum). I followed your advice and my skin is looking better every day. I didn't realize how depressed I had become over the condition of my skin. Now I am feeling so much better. I am back to Sage 100% never to stray again. I hope you and Sage will be around for a long, long time. Thank you and God bless you.
Sincerely,
Tammy J
I wanted to send a quick thank you to Sage. I have just received my new package in today’s mail.
I have submitted a complaint form with the USPS regarding the damaged and missing package and am waiting to hear back from them. I will keep you posted if there is any significant information.
Thanks again for being such a great company and being loyal to your customers.

Wow, I used the MSTT this morning as a mask...AWESOME!! Skiing last weekend did a number on my face. Even though I have oily, acne skin I think I'm finally getting over putting crèmes and moisturizers on my face and realizing what a huge difference in makes in my skin to keep it hydrated. The winter is hard on my skin and it breaks out more than in the summer. I love this stuff.
Thanks,
Mellyn
I used that line for about 4 weeks, the time allotment for it to work. Well, all I got was more pimples and I found myself just about every day longing to go back to Sage, skincare that I know works for me. But I had to give it the full 4 weeks to make sure it wasn't just doing the purging thing that they say it's supposed to do. When I did go back to Sage, I found myself talking to my skincare - saying "Hello old friend".
It has taken less than a week and I see a major improvement in my skin. It is clearing up and the marks are slowly disappearing. The key to this recovery - and the one thing that the other skin care made me realize - was to simplify. I had gotten to the point in my Sage use that I had added more steps than was needed and used more MZ than I needed to. I was also using stronger strengths than my face now needed and that contributed to the condition my skin was in when I decided to try the new skin care. When I went back to using Sage, I had to remember where I started and what worked for me. When I did that, my skin started to improve and react the way I wanted it to. I still use MZ, but just a smaller amount that actually dries on my skin and doesn't stick to my hair or pillowcase.
I wrote this lengthy post in hopes that it will help anyone who might feel that Sage is not as successful with their skin as it once was. If it takes trying a new skin care line to satisfy your curiosity, than that might be what it takes for you to put your whole heart into your Sage routine. The most important thing to remember is that you know your skin the best, and when all else fails, simplify. Exfoliate, cleanse, treatment, moisturize - and always use SPF.
A true Sage believer,
Jo
Happy New Year!
You haven't heard a peep from me because I've been soooooo happy with my
products. The Basic regime with the Fix Zit (and alternating Retin-A) has
completely restored my skin. It hasn't looked this good since my twenties,
and it looks pretty darn good! (I'm 43,
btw.)
I've made it through the last two periods without ONE hormonal zit. I cannot
believe it.
The cold water in Maryland is cold enough to not even ice. Ice water comes
from the tap!
After years of money and time at the dermatologist, I am one grateful, happy
camper. May the new year bring you all of your biggest wishes--one of mine
has come true with a bang!
Gratefully,
Alison
Dear Barbara, it has taken me the
whole summer to realize that when i first contacted you
last December that your hunch was right and that my skin
is more Rosacea, than anything and that i need the most
creamy and fresh products which is exactly what i have
ordered especially after trying your sensitive facial
wash...one word wow...back to another reason for this
email !
Other than that your products are
just amazing thanks and keep up the good work you gave
people like myself REAL advice and did not just want to
sell me a product that was full of things that would
irritate me to death...for that alone from someone who
genuinely wants to help people is amazing THANK YOU!
Lawrence M
Wow thank you and again I am telling
everyone I know how wonderful your products are...Better
than any Dept. store, drugstore brands your great!!!
Amy M
Just a note to let you know how much
we LOVE the new Mother Strickland's Terrific Treatmen
Cream. It really is terrific! Please keep it as a part of
your great product line. It is the only thing that keeps
Donna's dry skin hydrated....better than Old Lady Cream,
too. Thanks for all your outstanding products. Cindy (oily
& aging skin), Donna (dry and aging skin) & Molly (teen
combo skin).
We love ya in Tennessee.
Great idea about the MSSR on the
feet! You are so creative- it will come in
handy during this sandal wearing season. Thank you for
your quick reply and
excellent service. Sincerely,
Julie M
Barbara,
Thank you SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much! And YOU are
appreciated as well! Through the years you have managed to
maintain the personal touch AND CARING with your customers
like no other company I know. AND unbeatable products on
top of that. Truly a winning combination!
Thank you again for this courtesy.
Linda B
I really enjoy your products and my
skin has never looked better. A faithful Sage customer.

I started using the 2% Moisture Whip
Smoother several months ago when I used up all of my
beloved Gelloid. I thought nothing could beat the Gelloid,
but the Moisture Whip is a sure winner. I use a heavy
layer first thing during my morning shower, before the
scrub and facial 'poo. I use a tiny dab pre-makeup, and
add a layer after my evening ritual. My skin looks great
since I started using it in addition to my MSSR, Smoothing
Cream, and Whitening/Brightening products. I didn't think
it would make such a difference, but I've even had other
people commenting on my skin. It is a
perfect product for me. I just went to Las Vegas recently
and my skin absolutely drank this up like a sponge!
I've been using Sage products exclusively for about 4 or 5
years now, and am so looking forward to new products if
this one is any indication of what may be forthcoming!
Vicuna
Hi Barbara!
Just wanted to let you know that I did my very first peel
tonight and cannot believe the difference. I
am positively glowing. My skin looks and feels brand
new, as if it has never known a pimple or a blackhead :-)
Thank you so much for your exceptional formulations.
I am so very happy that you help me take such great care
of my skin!
Last week I received my first jar of the luxury eye cream!
I LOVE IT. I would be lost without my Sage products!
I was on vacation recently. As a treat I walked to
morning mass...I woke up in the nick of time to get
there...no make up...Before Sage....I never would have
been confident enough, care free enough to leave the house
without at least some powder or blush. Not any more,
and I can't tell you how grateful I am! No one
ever guesses my age right either...I am 40 and people
routinely think I am in my late 20's GOD BLESS YOU
BARBARA...

If you have dry or tired skin and
find yourself looking for a product to soothe and
moisturize, try the new Mother Strickland's Terrific
Treatment for Terribly Tired Skin... I bought a small jar
and absolutely love it. Even though it is the tail end of
winter and my skin had become dry as a bone, this cream
perked my complexion right up and the best thing was no
more flakiness. I sure hope
Sage makes this a regular part of the line up because I
want a lifetime supply.
No more dry skin, no tightness, no flakiness and my
mineral makeup applies over it like a dream. I just adore
it. Thank you Barbara and Sage! Another successful
product to add to my skin care arsenal; and just what I
was looking for.
Thanks,
~Kim :)
I HAD TO LET BARBARA JOANNE AND
KATHY THE HERO OF CUSTOMER SERVICE KNOW HOW THEY HAVE
ACHIVIED THE IMPOSSIBLE AND ARE NEARLY AT THE END OF THE
ROAD IN MAKING SAGE EVEN BETTER!!
ALL THE LITTLE HICCUPS WILL BE WORTH
THE WAIT AND BELIEVE ME LIVING IN THE UK HAVE TO WAIT THAT
LITTLE BIT LONGER!
THANKYOU BARBARA FOR ALL YOUR HARD
WORK LOOKING FORWARD TO THE "NEW LOOK" SITE AND HERES TO
ANOTHER 10 YEARS OF SAGE.
CHEERS
Hi Barbara,
I wanted to thank you for your help but also let you know
some feedback. I am going to a well known, high end
cosmetic surgery / skin care place in Boston. I am trying
to lessen the appearance of acne scarring. Every
technician and nurse that has worked on me has asked me
what I use on my skin.
They can't believe how good my skin looks and can't
believe that I have found something to stop the breakouts.
Some of them have tried everything to stop breaking out
but nothing has worked. I have passed on your website and
info to all of them and explained the success that I have
had.
Hats off to you.
Elizabeth W.
Hi Barbara,
I don't think I've ever thanked you for your amazing
products. I've been using your line for about a year and a
half now, and I've seen incredible improvement in my skin.
I have had very few breakouts (and even when I do, they're
nowhere near as bad as past breakouts!), and my skin has
just never
looked better. I constantly rave about your gelloid and
bio masks to anyone who'd listen to me. Most of all I
wanna thank you for creating an "Acne Detective" out of me
(to the annoyance of people trying to sell me stuff!). :)
Thanks again for your wonderful formulations and excellent
customer service. I stand by your products because they're
the only ones I've seen positive results with over the
years.
Karen
Thank you Ms. Spielberg-Iwasyszyn:
That sounds great! I would love to try the firming and
brightening product. I want you to know how amazing
your products are and I heard about it from a friend I
worked with. Her skin was flawless and I asked her
what products she uses and she told me Sage! It's awesome!
I am 36 years old and still have monthly break outs.
I thought I would outgrow this and never did. Also I get
the added bonus of aging. I figured I had better do
something now. It's never too late. After
trying the Sage Skin Car line no one would ever know I
have crows feet, bags under my eyes and slight "wrinkles.
I love the Old Lady Cream!
Thank you so much for dedication to your company and line
of Skin Care. You are truly amazing!
Barbara, I just wanted to drop you a
line and let you know that the Fix Zit 5% is PERFECT!!! I
love it!!! My face is clearing up and feels great!!!!
I also wanted to let you know that I had THE best
ordering experience with your ladies there!!! As it turns
out I was the birthday winner and that was such a great
surprise!!!! I love your loose powder and intend on
ordering some with my next order of facial shampoo and sun
block. I had NO IDEA how oily my liquid foundation
was making me UNTIL I stopped using it and started using
your loose powder. I am really not that oily at
all!!!! WOW! Thanks so much for all of your help. I
hope you have a great day. Sincerely,
The order looks fine! I love Sage
Skin Care - I have used it now for almost 15 years. As
long as you make it - I'll use it - I am also very happy &
proud to support a woman owned & run business - I know you
have many testimonials for Sage Skin Care - but you could
add me if you ever needed to! Hope Barbara is doing well -
and give her my best regards
Hi Barbara,
I just wanted to drop you a note to tell you how much I
really like the new Mother Strickland’s Salicylic Acid
Micro Peel.
For quite some time my dermatologist had me only using
chemical exfoliants because my skin is quite sensitive to
scrubs. But just the chemical exfoliant alone didn't seem
to be doing the trick. Things just weren't fully clearing
up.
It looked like my breakouts were
just bumps lying dormant ready to happen -- but they never
did fully clear up or erupt. Anyway--I ordered your new
micro peel and gave it a try. I was a little nervous, as I
have never had a chemical peel in any form before and was
worried it might be too strong. (the word "peel"
sounded kind of scary!)
The results were fantastic--it was
exactly what my skin needed to fully clear up. I used the
2% and it was the perfect strength. I like that it scrubs
manually, as well as works chemically and that it is so
easy to use. My face doesn't turn overly red--I can
actually do this scrub in the morning in the shower and
not look like I did a peel--except for having terrific
glowing skin.
I really hope that this will become
part of the regular Sage offerings, as I will be the first
on the list to repurchase as soon as my current supply
gets low.
Thanks for creating such a great
product!
Hello,
Received my Eye & Lip Balm yesterday and I love it! Used
it twice yesterday and again this morning, you aren't
kidding when you state "loaded with Hyaluronic acid"! My
eye area is so hydrated and my concealer just glided on!
And your samples are so very generous, the Facial Shampoo
was great with my make up last night and I can't wait to
try the rest.
Thank you!
I wanted to send a quick note to
compliment Kathy in your customer service
department. She was extremely helpful in answering my
order questions today--even after the 4th call (I was
having trouble with a coupon code)!!
She has always been very friendly and a great person to
have in a position that potentially is in contact with a
great number of your clients on a day-to-day basis. I have
walked away from cosmetics counters where I wanted to
purchase something if the customer service was not
adequate.
That will never happen with Sage. Thanks again for your
wonderful products as well as your excellent customer
service!
Before I made the decision to order
anything from Sage I read the testimonials and noticed
there were very few from any men on there and decided if I
went through with this I would write one.... here it
goes!
I have had acne for 6 years...not a long time I know but
frustrating still. I am a singer and being on stage I have
always been conscious about how I look. The problem for us
men is we can't conceal those zits with makeup. (Well we
could but we don't) thus began my battle for a zit free
face!
Until now I have never been hopeful that my goal could be
reached! I've only been using Sage for 3 weeks noticed a
dramatic improvement. Not to say that I’m zit free yet but
the one thing I’ve learned from using Sage is
patience....you go slow with products that work and the
results are startling! It's a change from our fast paced
world where everything is instant...but Sage works, it
really works!!
So I encourage any men out there who are contemplating
trying Sage to give it a shot.... it may look complicated
due to all the products but it's not - it's like brushing
your teeth. You settle into a routine and life gets better
and your skin gets clearer and your confidence gets
stronger, and you can look people in the eye and NOT be
wondering which zit there looking at!
It's incredibly liberating!!
So thank you Barbara and everyone at Sage my skin thanks
you all.
Next time I sing I’ll a sing a song for you!
Dear Barbara,
I have only been using Sage products for 8 weeks and the
difference in my skin is amazing. It's the best it has
ever been.
I started suffering from acne at the age of 15, directly
after having chickenpox. I have tried everything available
in the UK for years, antibiotics, orally and topically,
Retin A. the contraceptive pill Dianette for years,
sunlamps on medical advice, diet etc.
I am now 46 and it was only by accident, surfing on the
net. that I discovered your website. I realized by reading
your factsheets that most of my cosmetics, soaps and bath
products were all contributory factors, as well.
Despite my skin being much clearer, it is also already
looking firmer and younger, as I have been using the peel,
the smoothing cream, MSSR and the firming and brightening
cream. You now have a life-long customer and I have been
recommending your products to friends and relatives.
With much appreciation and gratitude,
I just tried mine last night and
WOW, what a difference. I've been using 70% AHP for a year
now so expected something similar, but I was amazed at how
smooth my skin felt! Please tell me that you're going to
make this a regular product?!?!
I also figure it's about time I thanked you for the rest
of your skincare system since I've been using Sage for
about 18 months now. Before Sage I'd had adult acne for
the last 15 years, tried everything but nothing really
helped. After Sage I have beautiful skin that looks better
without foundation than with. Something I never thought
would happen to me.
I'm still working on getting rid of scarring and
discoloration, but no zits (unless I get lazy and skip my
MSSR for several days). I can't thank you enough.
I put my Sage products to the test
once & for all! Quickly, I've been suffering
through breakouts for over 4 yrs. now. Before Sage I had
literally tried everything, Rx's, otc products, dept.
store brands, & everything I saw being peddled through our
miracle infomercials! I stumbled upon
Sage through the Cosmetic Connection about a year ago,&
decided to order them. They cleared my skin within a few
days, the only problem was my skin wouldn't stay clear b/c
I couldn't/wouldn't keep from picking! So about a month
ago I told myself I HAVE to stop picking, I had to see
what my skin was doing on it's own & not from me creating
problems.
I continued with my Sage routine & have kept my hands off!
I I am thrilled to say I HAVE CLEAR SKIN!!!
Now comes the test. Thinking that my skin is clear now, I
wanted to see how much of it was Sage & how much of it was
just my picking & aggravating my skin. Please note; I
never intended to stop using Sage, b/c IMO there is
nothing that comes close! I love the feel of these
products & fully intend on living with them forever! I was
just testing my skin!
I switched to an expensive regimen that I had called MD
Forte. It has all the basic active ingredients as Sage,
BHA'S/AHA's, benz. per., etc.! So it will work the same
right? Wrong!
Within 2 days my skin was super dry & taut, flaking &
bumpy! I stuck it out for 2 weeks, b/c I know that when
you start using different products, you'll go through a
little adjustment. My skin still had all
the same problems, only worse!
I went back to my Sage & in 3-4 days, it was soft again, &
after 1 1/2 weeks, totally clear!
I know now that the majority of my problems were me making
my skin worse by picking, but I also see that even if I
don't pick, I still have breakouts, just not as bad. And
the only thing that will keep those problems CONTROLLED
(which is as good as cured to me!) is my Sage products!
Ok Barbara! You've been put to through the true test &
passed with flying colors! ;)
You are the valedictorian of acne management! Not only do
you clear our skin & keep it clear, you one up it by
leaving us with soft, supple, glowing skin!
**I love you man!**
:
I just wanted to tell you I
think your products are absoultely wonderful!
Here I am not plagued by acne but felt my skin was
aging and looking rather dull & forgotten about so I
decided I need something that would rev up my skin and
give it a more youthful appearance with a glow. Well!
Well! well! Sage Skincare is where the buck stops for
me. I have not only achieved that nice youthful flushed
glow but much to my amazement I have gotten many
questions by various people asking what do I use on my
skin! I love these kinds of questions because I am a
bit smitten about my new found beautiful skin. I have
always felt Sage skincare was way too pricey for my
pocketbook but I am getting results right then & there,
your products work as promised and since you don't need
to use globs of your product in the long run the price
just about evens out with the amount of product you
get. A little goes the distance!
Sage skincare is worth every penny to me and is a
staple in my skincare regimen. I use no other not
anymore. Thanks to the tons of sample you have sent I
tried mssr 2% on those monthly big mothers and no joke,
that same night that big mamma dwindled to a pimple
just like that, I didn't expect that, I happen to go
into my bathroom for something and of course me being a
tad bit vain I looked in the mirror marveling at my
skin and was stunned to see that bump had melted down
to a pimple within a Hour. I'm walking around my home
saying to myself No way in Hell. Then I said this is
amazing. This is my next order... Mssr 2% but maybe I
will try 4% if the 2% did that in less than hour 4%
must be a mind blower.
Any way I just wanted you all to
know that I am a loyal customer from here on out and
would like you to post my testimonial. Some people may
feel your products are mainly for problematic skin
which is something I don't have... the word needs to
get out that sage skincare is one of the smartest &
best investments anyone could make towards healthy
looking skin.
Loyal Customer,
Dear Barbara,
I received me order in a very
timely manner on Friday. Started using irt that
night. Today ( Monday, is day 4). the dryness and
roughness on both cheeks is gone. Iv'e never heard
of grains before washing, but it seems to be doing
the trick. I called my daughter, today is her
birthday to wish her a great day and thank her for
the referral to your product.
After using very expensive product for years
thinking that they were better and a convert to
Sage. I look forward to ordering more things in the
future.
Thank you ,
You must have heard this
many times, but I must say it again - your
products are simply wonderful! Not only
have they kept my acne at bay, but for the first
time in my life, I have clear, smooth skin that's
soft to the touch. It's truly a wonderful
phenomenon, and I have you and your products to
thank. Thank you, dear Barbara, for giving
me good skin and great confidence to face the
world. Thank you, thank you, THANK
YOU! Once again, thank you very
much, Barbara, for your products and expertise.
I am most grateful to you. Have a nice day ahead!
Yours respectfully,
I just had an issue with an
order that USPS said they delivered, but I never
received. I contacted Sage and Kevin was an angel.
Without questions he resent the order to my office,
it arrived in record time and he was such an angel
about it. I hated to inquire, but I was really
looking forward to trying Barbara's new Treatment
Cream and when my order didn't arrive, I was
miserable. It just goes to show what great customer
service can do!! And, trust me, you don't find it
everywhere, but at Sage, it abounds!!
I also had a problem with an order; some items were
not sent out to me, but Kevin made it right. He sent
the items immediately and I got them in record time.
THANKS KEVIN! The customer service
at Sage CAN NOT be beaten. Most companies don't know
and don't care who you are...Sage CARES!
Joanna,
I have been back on the sage wagon for about 2
months and my skin has never looked better!! someone
actually complimented me on it the other day! I
started using sage about 2-3 years ago and had great
success. almost 1 year ago I decided to try other
skincare lines- probably due to some PMS bout I was
having- anyway what a mistake! the past 9 months I
broke out more than I ever have in my life. of
course this just led me to try more and more
products with less and less satisfactory results.
then eureka! I decided to go back to sage and the
turn around in my skin has been unbelievable. I am
30 years old and prone to cystic monthly outbreaks
(usually 1 or 2 huge ones that stay forever) and a
few small outbreaks around my chin and mouth. I am
thrilled to say that my face has completely cleared.
not only that, but the texture, color and overall
clarity is almost perfect- seriously! its really
something. your products are the absolute best- the
cleansing grains and facial shampoo I don't think I
could live with out and I love the mssr. I did an
AHP last week and my face almost immediately glowed!
I also use the bio defining mask and love it as
well. I want to thank you for such great attention-
Barbara called me when I came back to you guys to
walk me through my routine and what to order- and
such wonderful products. I am never leaving you
again!!
Barbara,
I can't tell you how much I appreciate your products
(assuming I'm writing to the correct person!). I
find it difficult sometimes to make the commitment
to pay for products that are quite outside my
budget, but as soon as I've placed my order, I feel
great about it because I know my skin will be back
to its healthy self soon! And the cost has always
been worth it, because there is truly nothing I have
tried to find on my own that works anywhere near as
well as Sage products do. I also love getting my
e-mail confirmations thanking me for using your
products and supporting a women-owned and run
company. I am so happy to support such endeavors.
Thank you for your frank and honest advice about
skincare on the website, as well as the little gifts
that are sent with every one of my orders. I really
feel that your company goes above and beyond and I
never feel like I am being taken advantage of as
your customer.
It is not often one feels "moved" to write comments
or suggestions, but this is one of those times. No
suggestions, really, except to keep up the good
work, and keep those monthly specials coming!
Thank you so much.
Allison G
Hi, I have ordered your products (rosacea
starter kit) recently and am very pleased with
the results so far. Thank you also for the prompt
delivery: I ordered the products on Friday (from
Germany) and they were delivered on Monday!!
That was really great how everybody from SAGE
kept me updated on the status of
my order and processed it so promptly. Also the
tracking function is great, I could trace
my order over the internet and see exactly when
it arrived in customs in Germany etc.
Dear Barbara,
I hope that this letter will make you and your
people really proud of what you do. I knew of
course that your products were different even
before I tried them, as I was impressed by your
excellent customer care and personalized
approach. Of course I was even more impressed
when I tried them on my face.
When I started using your products, my skin was
your usual oily-acneic skin. However, somewhere
along the way, it became less oily and started
feeling sensitive, dehydrated and unhappy?but
shiny and prone to zits around the T-zone at the
same time. And as soon as you changed my
prescription, my skin condition improved.
Although I was happy with most of my regime, I
felt that having stuff shipped from the US cost
too much and that I should try to find similar
skincare which would be readily available in
Greece, where I live. I have searched and
searched and wasted loads of dough on unsuitable
products). I kept telling myself that somewhere
out there, there had to be something which could
work as well as your Extra Gentle Facial Shampoo,
Fix Zit or Old Lady Cream. Well, my search is
over. Better products for my skin simply do not
exist. Period. I have tried an incredible number
of facial cleansers in liquid, solid, oily,
foaming, non-foaming form?you name it, I have
tried it. And yet, nothing cleaned my skin
perfectly but without any dryness whatsoever.
Neither have I found anything as potent towards
zits and as gentle towards my skin like Fix Zit
(I use 5% and spot treat with XX w/ Sulphur). As
far as Old Lady Cream is concerned, nothing
plumps chapped lips like it. Also, when I use it
as a night cream, my face feels very smooth and
plump. (My sister also swears by your Claw and
Paw cream, but that?s another discussion.)
In other words, congratulations for such an
exceptional line.
I have Rosacea with an occasional pimple or
two. I love the XG Corrective Grains and XG
Facial Shampoo. The XG Facial Shampoo is
the only thing that doesn't burn my skin when I
have a major rosacea flare-up. The
Corrective Grains have made my skin noticeably
smoother. I use the other products only as
needed due to my sensitivity and lack of patience
with a many step routine. Plus my face is
great most of the time with just the grains and
shampoo. I thank you for creating the first
skin care products that truly work on my skin
type. They are well worth the cost.
Now if you came out with a shampoo & conditioner,
I'd have it made!
THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!!!! My skin
looks AWESOME! You people are a god send!!! I
have never seen ANY product work SO FAST!!! I
love using the whole system day and night ..just
to see how much better my skin will look!
Thanks a million! You have got yourself a
lifelong customer!
I just started trying Sage products last week,
and I can't tell you how much I LOVE them. I have
been fighting Rosacea for more than a year now,
and these products are the first thing that I've
found that work. In addition, I've had very
sensitive and dry skin all my life and have tried
every product on the market - and nothing worked.
I've thrown out more products than I'll probably
ever need from Sage. This is the first time in
years that I actually look forward to taking care
of my skin, as I know it won't be a battle. I
can't thank you enough for these great products,
and for all of the wonderful information that you
provide along with it. The articles on your web,
and the detailed instructions are so helpful.
These products have given me hope that I can get
Rosacea under control. THANK YOU! THANK YOU!
Dear Barbara:
I've been using Sage since 1999 and still love
it. My skin has never looked better, and next
week I'll be turning 39!
Awhile ago I was at the cosmetics counter to
buy foundation. The woman who was helping me
asked me if my skin was oily or dry. I smiled and
said "neither". (Before Sage, I would have had
to say "both"!) She felt my skin and said "Oh,
I'm so jealous of people who have perfectly
hydrated skin!" I smiled again and told her
about Sage. She was all over it! And she works
for a high-end cosmetic company. It made my
day...
Keep up the great work!
I rec'd my order on Friday and am loving the
products. Friday afternoon I started
getting a monster on my chin, one that typically
requires an injection or a week to go away.
I followed the directions to begin using your
product and to my amazement & utter happiness the
monster disappeared faster than I could have
imagined. I can't wait to see how great my
skin looks after a few weeks of use. I am
thrilled I stumbled upon your products!!
I have been using your products for 1 full
week. Just one week! And the difference in my
skin is amazing! I have always suffered from acne
on my chin area, and occasionally on my cheeks,
and I have been on one prescription after another
- most recently, different gel, and nothing ever
worked! It just dried me out, and made my skin
sore. But it only took one week to begin to get
the situation under control using your try me
pack! My cystic acne ("big mothers") is melting
away (thanks to the zit zapper with sulfur!) And
the redness I had which was left over from acne
that is gone is fading away! I love the gelloid -
my skin is soft and even!!!!!!!!! The shampoo
takes off every bit of makeup!!!! The complements
I have received in just 7 days - it is
unbelievable! Everyone is telling me how amazing
my skin looks, and how smooth my face is. Thank
you thank you thank you! I am hooked! Thank you
so much!!!!! I am one happy customer!
I am writing to tell you how pleased I have
been with your product line. This past year I had
been using Diane 35 birth control pill which did
wonders for my face but also changed my
composition it seems. Several months ago, I
decided it was time to cease this form of birth
control and my skin went wild. All different
types of acne and nothing worked. My
dermatologist had me on all kinds of things that
semi-worked while drying my skin and making it
ultra sensitive. I ordered a try-me pack and
after using it for nearly 3 weeks the change is
remarkable. My skin is soft and nearly completely
clear. It is no longer irritated and I feel
wonderful. Being 29 and having that kind of acne
was acutely embarrassing along with being so
uncomfortable. I have now placed an "actual"
order and am sure I will be back for a long time.
Thank you so much for your products. I have been
and will continue to recommend your products.
Hi!
I just had to write in about my skin. I am
soooo excited about all of Sage skincare
products. Now mind you I've only been using sage
for 10 days
now...but...I have a totally clear face! This
is something I of all people haven't had in 2
years. I started out with the try-me pack, then 5
days later, ordered full sizes and then just
yesterday ordered the blow out special order
pack. Can you tell I am scared to death to be
without these now. LOL. Ohhh have to sneak in
that I ordered on a Monday and received my items
by Wednesday, he he. I started out with mild acne
to start but can't believe my skin right now. I
have tried it all, I sat down and just realized
I've to date tried 18 different skincare lines. I
had my daughter take a picture of me yesterday,
that I attached below because I just wanted proof
that I am not losing it and my skin is really
clear! I emailed it to all my family members and
also finally posted a picture of myself on
another message board (something I didn't want to
do before I always used an older photo) I
absolutely love the site and all the information
on ingredients that clog your pores. I was amazed
to find out that the skincare line I was using
for a year had 4 ingredients listed as a 4!! I
now am using a safe shampoo, conditioner,
foundation and blush and just really can't
believe my results. I went to the store the other
day without a drop of foundation on!! I am sooo
thankful to Barbara for not only creating a truly
highly addictive skincare line but also educating
us on what's in the products we use.
Thank you Thank you Thank you I will never be
without my Sage.
You are probably already tired of receiving
all the compliments from people for making such
wonderful products. However, I also want to take
some time and thank you for making my skin look
so beautiful, that I haven't had in years.
I have spent thousands and thousands of dollars
on clinique, lancome, MD formulations, over the
counter masks & creams, dermatologist, antibiotic
pills......you name it, but I had never seen any
gratifying results with them. All those products
would clear up my skin for the time-being, but I
still didn't get the result I always wanted, i.e.
healthier, glowing skin. I am 22 years old from
California. I didn't know anything about Sage
product line until I got married 5 months ago. I
started breaking out pretty badly after my
marriage for two months. Every day, I saw myself
in the mirror and spotted big lovely zits here
and there on the face. My sister-in-law noticed
my face and gave me an overview of the Sage
products, that she had been using for the last
couple of years. She also gave me few samples of
some of the sage products for take-home. I was
already pretty distressed about my previous
medicines, but I still thought of giving Sage a
try. I did see some results but not as much
because I wasn't too regular with it, plus I
wasn't using the samples in a proper order. I
started doing some research on sage two months
ago (reading reviews, articles, testimonials) and
finally decided to order the acne try-me pack.
That just did WONDERS for me!!! I am so
excited and can't wait to use all the sage
products! (especially the ones I haven't used:
AHP, bleaching lotions, ooey gooey mask etc.)
However, at the same time, I want to go a bit
slowly on the products due to a limited budget,
plus its better to use one thing at a time.
Thanks again.
After almost 2 years of using Sage, I love my
skin even more. I understand what to do, and I've
learned how to read what my skin needs and how to
take good care of it. It's so nice to not
have to worry every time I wake up in the morning
what I will find on my face. This is "luxury"
skin care that lasts and lasts. There are
enough stresses in the world without having to
worry about your complexion too. It's nice that
Barbara and Joanna and everyone at Sage give us
the tools to relieve us of those stresses.
Thank you so much for the life changing skin
care. You really do put the "care" in skin care.
:)
July 3 it will be 1 year since I started using
Sage products so I thought now would be a good
time to tell my story. The difference Sage
products have made to my skin is absolutely
amazing. Not only has Sage cleared up my
cystic acne, but I got my self-confidence back.
As a teenager I didn't have just a couple of
every once in a while. It wasn't until I
was 22 that I developed "adult acne". It
got soooo bad that all I wanted to do was cry and
hide in the house. I went to several
dermatologists who put me on antibiotics that
NEVER worked, along with creams that would dry my
skin out sooo bad that I would break out even
worse. I tried explaining to these Doctors
that drying out my skin seemed to be making my
acne much worse, but I would just get more
antibiotics that would do nothing and more creams
that would dry out my skin!
Anyway I considered Proactive, but after
checking out some reviews I came to the
conclusion that their goal is to "dry out"; your
skin and since I believe that drying out my skin
makes it worse I knew Proactive wasn't for me.
Then one day I was checking out some reviews on
the Cosmetic Connection when I came across the
review on Sage products. I went to
www.zerozits.com and began reading everything.
I liked what I read and since Sage had a
"trial" kit I gave it a shot. Before using
my new Sage products I spent hours going over
EVERYTHING so I would get it right. I
heeded Barbara's advice on going slow, it takes
90 days for a zit to form, ice, blah blah blah :)
and FINALLY I applied the products the night of
July 3, 2000. Well by the next morning I
knew that after 12 years of horrible skin I
finally found something that would work.
I couldn't believe the overnight difference.
NO I didn't wake up to clear skin in one day, but
my skin did continuously get clearer and clearer.
In fact within the first week of using Sage
products, my Husband, who was the only person to
ever see me without makeup, made a comment about
how my skin looked "smoother" less red.
After 6 months of using Sage products I was
looking people in the face again knowing that
they wouldn't be counting the 10-15 zits on my
face since they were no longer there!!!
I do get the occasional zit which is caused
by one of three things...1) I slacked off
(on using the products, icing or changing my
pillow case) 2) I dried my skin out
(using AHP too much MZ or letting the mask dry on
my skin) and 3) Extreme Stress (guaranteed zit or
two).
I can't say enough good things about Sage
products. If you proceed slowly and follow the
directions SAGE PRODUCTS TRULY TRULY TRULY WORK.
If anyone reading this post is still thinking
about whether or not to give Sage a try my advice
is to definitely give it a try. I truly
thank God for the day I stumbled onto Sage
Products. I know what it feels like to be
self conscious because of "bad" skin and to
wonder if you'll ever have clear skin again.
Everyone needs to find what works for them and
the great thing is that Barbara and all the Sage
Staff will work with you to help you find what
works for you. Whether it may be a change
in your routine or change in your products they
are there to do whatever it takes. And this
forum is a godsend. I still come here for good
advice, good reviews and techniques on applying
the products.
To Barbara and everyone else at Sage....I
want to say Thank you...Thank you for your
wonderful products and for all the time you spend
in making sure your clients are getting positive
results. Because of your products I have my
confidence back. I can face the world again.
When friends use to ask if I had one wish what
would I wish for my answer was always clear skin.
You made my wish come true and I really want to
thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Dear Barbara:
I had already written you to tell you how
happy I was within just a few days of using your
Oily Skin "Try Me Pack." And now three
weeks later, my skin keeps looking better and
better! What I wanted to thank you for now is
your At Home Peel. It is simply and
absolutely fantastic!!!! I received it via
UPS yesterday afternoon and used it last night,
followed your instructions to the letter and my
skin looks wonderful (if I do say so myself)!!
I still cannot believe how wonderful your
products are! I thank you for including the
sample of Zit Zapper that I'd asked for ----- I
have already placed an order for it this morning!
And especially for the wonderful and generous
samples of the body products ---they are already
on my list to order next-they are just
wonderful!! Thank you again for your amazing
products-as a woman who suffered with
oily/breakout prone skin and tried everything
short of a paper bag over her head to clear the
oil and scarring and uneven skin tone, I am just
so thankful to you! Somehow, "thank you"
just doesn't seem to cover it! Your
products have changed my complexion and my life!
For the first time, I feel comfortable going
outside without wearing foundation --just my SPF
25 and a big smile!! Keep up the fabulous work
and if you ever need an enthusiastic customer
referral, please don't hesitate to ask me! Best
regards and continued success.
Dear Barbara,
I just started using your products this week
and could not be happier with
the results. When I used "HUMAN CLICK" to speak
with a representative you
were the one who spoke to me and you asked me to
call. I have never had such
wonderful service and a feeling that you really
cared and truly wanted to
help guide me towards the best products to make
my skin beautiful. All the
samples have been wonderful and have allowed me
to see what works best for
me. I look forward to trying some of your other
products such as the Gelloid
and Biological Defining Mask. Do you think these
products would be good for
my sensitive and acne prone skin? I am a
customer for life and I can't wait
to start using your cosmetics as well!!!
Thank you.
