Here is a thread about the order of products:
http://www.essentialdayspa.com/forum/viewthread.php?tid=18360
Hidden in there somewhere is info on the order of oils, serums, etc. I bookmarked this thread and refer to it often.
As for YY oil, I used Decleor for a year...it took several weeks to finally see a balance in my skin. Upwards of two months or so after I started, I began to realize that I wasn't blotting as much throughout the day. It takes awhile. YY oil does not mattify your skin, rather it helps your sebum production balance out. Therefore results are not immediate. It's well worth the wait! I went from uber oily to combination skin because of Decleor.
ETA: Order of product application depends both on pH level as well as whether or not the product will block other products from penetrating your skin.
A rough guide for product order from the thread above:
-Cleanser (may need to wait before exfoliate, if pH is a concern)
(optional pH adjusting product could be used here, after cleansing) before acid)
-Exfoliate (usually requires a wait time)
-Toner (Liquid water like products, such as toner/treatment solutions, liquid DMAE)
-Serum (Copper Serum, treatment Serums, DMAE thicker products)
-Gel (DMAE, deffrin)
-Oils (Emu, Jojoba, Almond, etc)
-Creams
-Sunscreen
-Foundations |
