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 :)

Ami

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.

Dana D

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!

Warmest regards,
Faiza

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...

Michelle D  - FL


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.

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!

Karen F

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,

Adrienne C

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!

Cheryl


   

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!

Laura C

  

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! 

Mark A.

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,

Helen D.

 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.

Brigitte

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!**

Hi Joanne & Barbara,

 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,

Tonya

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 ,

Joan A

Dear Barbara,

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,

Lina

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!

~Kim :)

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. 

Yasmin

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. 

Natalie

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!      

Cindy E

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!                  

Liesel

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.
