My
name is Sinead. I am 25 years old and I live in Ireland. I
have had facial acne (mostly around the jawline)for about five
years now. I never really had it in my teens. I tried
everything, antibiotics, creams etc and spent sooooo much
money on expensive beauty products to rid myself of this
horrible acne which was getting me down, to no avail. The
thing that all these products had in common were that they
were expensive, didn't work and made my skin really dry. So,
basically I had horrible cystic acne PLUS dry, flaky skin! Not
a good look and it made me unhappy, self conscious and I
didn't feel like going out at weekends when I should be
enjoying myself.
But... in the past few weeks - I feel brilliant! Really good!
I saw the advice on the Cosmetic Connection website and
thought 'I need some of that!' My skin is soft, smooth, has
hardly any spots and is glowing. My boyfriend loves the new
me! Thank you Barbara for your products. I know now that I
will be a 'Sager' for life. I now want to get hold of some of
your body products so I think I will be ordering some of them
in the next few weeks.
Love sinead
I just
wanted you to know that I'm using the "Try Me" pack
for combination skin and am absolutely loving your product
line. My skin has changed dramatically in just one week of
use. I'm already moving away from a "combination"
skin type towards a more "normal" skin and my skin
tone itself is much more even, I barely have to use make-up to
"even" things out. And now my husband wants in on
the action (he's already skimming from my facial shampoo and
the XX Mother Strickland's zit zapper). Do you customize packs
for men? Feel free to use my comments in your testimonial
section, I've already passed on the website to several
friends, and be sure to let me know about men's skincare if
you provide it. Gratefully,
Susan C
I just wanted to take this
opportunity to thank you Barbara. You have given so much
happiness back into my life by creating Sage Skin Care. I have
suffered with acne since I was 11 years old, and have gone
through so many different forms of therapies including
Accutane which caused my body so much terrible pain in side
effects and ended up not working for long.
I have been using Sage for just over two weeks and I
feel radiant! It has been years that the only way I look in
the mirror would be if I didn't have my contacts on or very
close up so that I wouldn't get the whole picture of myself.
Well today I just stood back and looked at myself and stared
at a person that I havn't seen in a long time. I am so happy
with myself, so much confidence, and self-esteem has come back
to me.... thanks to your products and caring.
Last September I did some modelling for my hairdresser,
but it was a very traumatic experience for me because my skin
was very broken out. The photographer did an excellent job
touching up the pictures, but now when I do look at the
pictures I see the girl that I see now in the mirror and I
never in my wildest dreams ever thought I would have skin so
wonderful. Well I
better get going before I make this post to you even longer!
Thank you again Barbara for everything. I am so happy I want
to cry. You've given so much back to me, I don't think I could
ever thank you enough.
A forever Sager, Sabrina
I must compliment you as far as
knowing your ingredients.
I have very very sensitive and dry skin--roscea, only
blushing and redness. I ordered your Emulsion and Old Lady Cream.
I layered them and in two days, I have no more dry
skin, and best of all, no rashes or hives! Hurray! I read
ingredients like crazy and have ordered, before you, I don't
know how many products from the Internet, thinking they would
be okay. I was so
desperate I ordered from Ar-Ex, and that was the
worse--probably because of Borax!
I ordered from Paula Bequin but had to send everything
back. I could go
on and on. I
received samples, generous, of your facial shampoo and grains.
I just ordered today and also the gelloid.
I hope I will be okay with them.
I was too excited to wait!
LOL! I
guess because I've been using Vaseline for the past 15 yrs.
I know it's a sealant and not a moisturizer, but it was
better than nothing. It
must be good because I'm 57 and everyone thinks I'm less than
47! Probably
genes because my Mom has wonderful skin tone.
Anyway, I just want to thank you so much. If I have to return anything I won't hesitate, but I don't
think I will. By
the way, the Old Lady Cream is great for an eye cream for
those with allergies. I could go on but won't take any more of your time.
I just want to thank you for knowing your ingredients
and what you are putting together. Thanks again,
Sharon
Hello, I ordered the 4 oz bottle of
Corrective Grains and a 4 oz bottle of Facial shampoo, both
Extra Gentle, about 2 weeks ago.
I am SO INCREDIBLY IMPRESSED by these two products!! I am taking 6 grams of B5 per day, and am using Retin-A Micro
at night, and my skin was virtually acne free for the first
time in a few years because of those two products.
So I was hesitant to purchase the Sage products,
because I didn't want to add anything that may make my skin
worse. However, I
was looking for a new cleanser to use in the morning and at
night, because I was unhappy with my old one.
Like so many cleansers, it made my skin feel very tight
and red, and I had a hard time opening my mouth, because my
skin was so tight. When
I ate a meal, the skin around my mouth and jaw line would
flake off a little. So
I was looking for a cleanser that would help a little with
acne, but mostly I was looking for a cleanser that would just
make my skin very soft and would improve slight discoloration,
and wouldn't irritate my skin.
Surprisingly, this was very hard to find.
So I decided to try your two products, the shampoo and
grains, because I had heard nothing but great things about
them from many different people.
It is a little more costly than most cleansers, but man
is it worth it! My
skin is softer than it has been in years since I started using
this, and it also seems to be helping a little with the
redness as well. I
use it twice a day, and since I got the extra gentle version
of both, it doesn't seem to be drying my skin out at all,
which was a big problem for me.

I walked past the mirror this morning with no make-up on
and I did a double-take. I almost didn't recognize the person
in the mirror with the smooth and glowing complexion.
I am 33 years old, and have literally spent thousands
of dollars on acne and skin care treatments - everything from
oral and topical prescriptions to drugstore and high-end
department store brands. I tried Proactiv, Peter Thomas Roth,
MD Formulations, La Mer, Lancome, Clarins, Estee Lauder,
Neutrogena, etc. Some products helped a little, some made
things worse, and most importantly not one of the brands lived
up to the claims they made. I would cry at night before I went to sleep and dreaded
looking in the mirror. I avoided my class reunion because my
skin looked bad. One night I was searching the internet, came
across this forum, and decided to purchase a try me pack. At
the time my face was marked with acne, blackheads, scars, and
the beginnings of rosacea. Within one week, my skin looked
better than it had in years. After a month, I was hooked. I
followed the routine religiously, called frequently to ask
questions ( Thanks for your patience Sharon!), threw away all
'unsafe' make-up, lurked on this board for tips, and was able
to sample products until I discovered what worked for me.
Today, my skin is smooth and glowing. My scars are
fading ( thanks to the At Home Peels) and I have a handle on
the rosacea. It has been over on month since my last pimple,
and I know if one shows up, I can handle it. My friends and
family cannot believe the difference in my appearance and
neither can I! While
I wrote this mainly to thank Barbara for creating this
wonderful product line, I am hoping others will read this post
and try Sage. If you have tried everything, and you are at
your wits end, please call them. The products are incredible,
the service is unbelievable, and it might just change your
life. Thank you so much!

I
just have to share how much I love Sage products. I started
breaking out 8 years ago. I had cystic acne on my chin,
blackheads on my nose, oily t-zone, lines around my eyes, not
pretty. I tried absolutely everything! Dermatologists, weekly
facials, every department store brand, drug store product,
health food store product, infomercial product, home shopping
product, internet product, vitamins, herbs, diet...everything.
Nothing worked. I finally tried Sage in December of 2000 after
6 years of searching and being depressed about my skin. Within
3 months my skin was completely clear. No breakouts at all, no
blackheads, just clear smooth healthy skin. Unbelievable. For
those of you starting out, it took a while to get my regime
figured out and I needed to adjust it as the seasons changed,
but whenever I encountered difficulty in the beginning I just
e-mailed Barbara my regime and what was happening and she
instructed me on how to adjust it and the problem was solved.
I also changed all of my makeup to Sage Safe makeup. My skin
is flawless. I don't have to worry about it anymore. Recently
I went to a fancy spa and had a facial (just for fun, I didn't
really need one). The esthetician said my skin was beautiful
but somehow talked me in to using samples of their expensive
designer products. I had gone so long without breaking out
that I started to wonder if maybe that phase of my skin was
over. Well, I used those darn samples for a few days and my
skin broke out terribly. That's what I get for not using Sage.
I'm back on track and reminded of how much the products have
done for my skin and my sanity. Thank you everyone at Sage, a
wonderful company with wonderful products and a wonderful
staff!!!

It has been about three months since I
started using your products and they are fantastic. I had been
battling cyclic acne (cystic) for many years without much
success. I have tried virtually every skincare line, have been
to countless dermatologists and have been on every kind of
medication from prescription topical to Accutane. I also have
rosacea so most things that treat my acne flare my rosacea and
the things that are mild enough for the rosacea flare the acne.
Since I have been using your products, I have only broken out in
the beginning and I was able to successfully treat those
erruptions. Since then, not a single breakout!
Your customer service is great. If I
have questions, I can always call and get an answer. I always
get what I ordered and my order comes quickly. Once, then I made
a mistake on an order, someone called me to clarify what I
wanted before the order was shipped. That is exceptional service
in an age where customers are taken for granted. You can feel
free to use this as a testimonial if you like.

I don't mean to scream thatttt loud
but.. oh my god!! I just started using SAGE for oily skin, and
although my skin is still oily, all the little pimples I have
had since I was 20 on my forehead and chest are GONE gone gone
gone gone!!!! I forgot what it felt like to run my fingers over
my chestand forehead, and feel suple smooth skin. Wow!!!
it's gorgeous and I just wanted to say a BIG thank you Thank
you!!!! I just have
started using sage, not even a week into using it, and
already I see results!! The sunscreen is THE BEST, I cannot say enough about it, I
live near the ocean and hated going outside slathered in thick
sunblock, feeling all slimy and getting burned anyway.. This
weekend, I put it on myself and two daughters, and we all did
not get burned, and noone felt like a greased up pig! :) THANK
YOU!! I'm amazed
and so pleased and am passing the word on, how great sage is. Wowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

need to watch my oily skin calm down :)
