| Have been using the Osmosis gentle cleanser, clarify, replenish, renew and spf moisturizer for about 1 week now. I have to say this is the most dramatic results that I have ever seen any skincare items do to my skin! My skin is less oily and my pores are clear and almost have disappeared! The system is simple and I have not had any purging as some people have had. Previously I have used PSF, Skinbiology, Valmont, Remergent, mama lotion, Vivier and none of these have done as much as Osmosis, I hope that EDS carries it soon. |

That's great news bugaboo! I saw on the original Osmosis thread that you had placed an order a while back and was wondering how it was working for you. Congratulations!  |

| Glad you like the line. It is certainly different but it does appear to be effective. |

| One caveat: do NOT use the Blue Copper Lifting Serum with BabyQ - I got masses of brown spots the day after using the combination together! |

I just placed an order today for some Osmosis products. So hope that I will finally have some success with it. Will let everyone know once it arrived.
In all the years I have never heard about that company. Many thanks to you ladies for sharing.

| I feel the same as Bushy, I liked it at first but then decided that it wasn't working for me. Just didn't seem to clean my skin. I am now using Karin Herzog and really like the professional cleasner, cleans my pores dramatically! |

I really love the line and I am loving what it is doing for my clients, BUT I am one of those people that have experienced the purging, and I must say I think I purged worst than everyone to the point my eyes were swollen. I had to stop using the clarify and I had to resort to putting Benedryl cream on my face to sooth the irritation, burning, redness, itching and the swolleness. I won't stop recommended it for people cuase I have seen the good it has done BUT I will warn them of this issue I have had.
Has anyone else exerience this? |

I went to an esthetician for acne. She sold me Cleanse, Calm, Correct, Clarify and Shelter. Because they sold out on the Osmosis moisturizer, I bought the Jadience moisturizer which I love (made in Canada.)
I had whitehead breakouts on my chin which is way better than the painful cystic acne I was getting prior to Osmosis. I was told this is the skin purifying itself out.
A month later my skin is smoother and rosier on the non-problematic areas and my chin is calming down with less acne flareups.
My face feels very nourished with the products on. I am willing to wait a year to see dramatic results as this is how long it will take my skin to relearn skin regeneration of my youth (I am 48 years old.)
I am also getting acupuncture and taking herbal pills. I have been taking good quality supplements and modifying my diet to that of a diabetic. I think all this is helping reduce my acne and the Osmosis is making my skin look healthy.
I've also had one mild Jessner peel and a deep medi-facial during this one month.
I plan to get more Osmosis product as I am pleased with the results.
I'm curious as to everyone else's experience with Osmosis. |

My name is Brenda owner of B*G*MAKEOVERS Advanced Skin Care Center in Raymond, NH. We have just started using the Osmosis product line and are already in love with it.
If you have any questions I would be happy to answer them.
One concern that I find noted often is the fact that the skin is left orangey after the Osmosis Facial Infusion Peel. This is typical. Try not to use more product than needed. I have found that a full dose is too much product. Use half a dose and do a good job of "forcing" it into the skin as directed. Leaving the product on for a few hours does tend to let the color "set" in.
You can expect to experience some peeling and sensitivity after a peel. This should only last a couple of days. |

How serendipitis....LOL - I love this forum! I was just about ready to make a post about Osmosis and saw this on the first page 
Anyhow, I am wondering about the Boost. Has anyone tried this? How is this product?
Also, I don't see this line on EDS.....Do they not carry it? |

| I'm interested in purchasing some of the anti-aging products from this range, has anyone here tried them? the clinic that does botox for me also carries them, so suffice to say they are very tempting. |

I have tried all the Osmosis products that are suited for my skin type. Are there particular products that you are interested in?
The Anti-Aging powder blend is good. I also like Replenish Antioxidant Serum, Stem Factor & Catalyst are amazing. My skin is sensitive so I use the Calm serum as opposed to Boost. I also like the masks. |

I DIY my night time regime so the most appealing products to me are the add on treatments like masks and also very interested in the powder blend. What results have you achieved from those two products? |

@Echoecho
the powder blend that I have used the most is the Calming. I use it mid month & before getting my period ...and at any time where my skin flares up a little. It calms the redness quickly. I notice a difference, if not the next morning, within a day or two max. I use 1/2 a scoop and mix it in my hand with Stem Factor & Catalyst. The powders dissolve quickly.
I have only used the Anti-Aging Blend a few times. I use it to maintain what I have. My skin issue is dryness & a mild form of Rosacea. I mix it (1/2 scoop) with a mask.
I like the Berries Mask the best, but the Wine & Grape one is also nice. My skin is left calmer & smoother looking. I look like I have had a facial. After doing it at night my skin does look rosy nit red & irritated, but definitely pinky. By morning, it looks great. HTH. I'm not a DIY-er so I won't be much more help! |

| Time2beme your recommendation was helpful, The masks appeal to me because it's an easier way of getting the results of a facial at home, which is quite hard to for me to DIY. I apply a mask every morning after cleansing with a daily exfoliant and find foundation goes on allot more easily. So thankyou |

I cant say enough good things about Osmosis! I have been using the range for 2.5 years. My face was absolutely destroyed by a nurse doing laser genesis - my skin basically had a nervous breakdown and it could have been caused by any number of things, such as: laser was done on me at 2 week intervals; in the second session she also used IPL; I was started on Cosmedix skincare by the clinic at the commencement of the laser treatments; I was given the Enzyme Mask to use 7 days after the second session of laser. I could not emphasise enough to the nurses at this clinic how sensitive my skin was but they didnt believe me. They said laser would help improve what they thought was rosacea - ends up I'm just highly sensitive to all of the chlorine put in our tap water!
After using the Cosmedix Enzyme Mask before going to bed as instructed by the nurse, I awoke to the most horrible sight! My face was absolutely covred in acne! And this was after having perfectly clear skin, my only real skin was issue was that previously I suffered from a few pesky hormonal zits around the time of my period.
There is a much longer story to all of this but I stopped using the Cosmedix products because most of them irritaed my skin when I used them. So I googled things like "repair face after destroyed by laser" and I stumbled upon Osmosis skincare. I read everything on the site and watched all of the videos - I thought to myself that this stuff was what my skin needed. I found a distributor in Australia and ordered a bunch of stuff like the Gentle Cleanser, Mend, Replenish, Clarify, Refresh AM & PM, Quench and Shelter. Instantly they calmed my skin, it looked smooth and glowy and the acne started to calm right down.
I actually suffer from quite dry skin but Osmosis has that fairly sorted most of the time. Over the 2.5 years that I have been using the range I've tried a lot of the products but my faves are: Refresh PM, Stemfactor, Catalyst, Replenish, Correct and the Anti-aging powder. I also makeup my own oil blends to add to my face which usually consist of the following: Organic Sesame Seed Oil, Macadamia Oil, Avocado Oil, Sea Buckthorn Oil, Rosehip Oil, Vit E Oil - I add some Lecithin to each of these oils by piercing a capsule because I have learnt from Dr Ben how important Choline is to help deliver nutrients into the dermis... 
Even though my skin got absolutely trashed by the laser, leaving me with scars, open pores (orange peel effect - which Stemfactor, Catalyst & the Anti-aging powder do wonders to reduce) people still tell me I have great skin and ask me what I use... |

| @ Echoecho - glad I could help. I hope you like the products. Another powder that many have raved about is the Skin Nutrition. If you are able to order from JoElla Milan, I think you get the best advice and the best customer service. I know there have been new rules enforced about shipping outside the U.S., but if you live there she is a great place to buy from. |

@ Glamcat ... I have some questions for you !!
I was curious about the Correct. I started with Mend and worked my way up to Calm. For your sensitive skin, I would have thought you would have stuck to those two. Can you tell me how the Correct compares to them, and why you chose that one?
Also ... How does the Refresh AM compare to the PM? I've ever only used the PM and would find it too thick to wear under makeup during the day.
Have you ever tried Repair? It is a great product. When my skin flares up, it helps calm it really quickly. |
