So I just received on Monday the PSF Retinol 1% Nite Repair and the Super Emergen-C Repair Serum and wow ... I don't know if I'm just seeing things ... but I REALLY believe that it's lightened a bit this one pigmented spot I've had on the top of my cheek. I swear it looks a bit lighter! My SO says he can't see a difference, but I mean, I look at my face every day in the mirror and it really does seem lighter. Could that be possible? So soon?
I think I'm going to love these products! I'll be sure to write a full review once I've used them for a few more weeks. I'm so happy so far!! I think I'd like to try more of their product line now.
Anyone have any recs? I know people have been raving about the Pumpkin Peel. |

I used the pumpkin peel a while ago now, but did love everything about it, the smell, the texture and the effect, it really is a great mask overall. I'm not using it at the moment, because I have a couple of "peels" that I'm using and liking also.
I have to add that I purchased a few products - the green tea facial cleanser and the EmerginC, and loved both of those as well (but being the brand flirt I am, I went to others when I ran out). Will be back to use these products again later as they are top quality for less price! |

I ordered the sample pack for Normal-Dry skin. I'm still working my way through the products but of the ones I've tried, I liked the Green Tea cleanser, R&R Toning Mist and O2 Rescue serum. I the O2 serum and have already bought a full size bottle. |

Congrats for joining the PSF club!! The two PSF products that I totally can't live without are the O2 serum and the Balancing Oil. But, the moisture mask and the Pumpkin peel are also very nice and luxurious... |

Moonstarr while these products could produce such an effect, it would be very unlikely that they would do so in a few days! |

I know! That's why it's hard to believe and even my SO said he couldn't tell a difference. But even this morning when I looked in the mirror, it did seem it had lightened slightly. Maybe I just need new contacts. I do like these products so far though, so hopefully as I use them longer (since it HAS only been just under a week) I'll see more results that other people will notice too. |

can anyone compare between Dr.H and PSF products for oily skin? |

I think both lines have good products for oily skin. I have not used the Dr. Day Oil, but I LOVE the PSF Balancing Oil. As for toners, I think Dr. H's toner is the best for oily skin. Sometimes if my skin is REALLY oily during the day, I'll blot and then mist my face with some Dr. H toner, and it really seems to help both with oilies and break outs. |

I really love the O2 serum, being such a product junkie this is one of the few things that I re-order. |

I'm the same way, Gina. I'm a total product junkie, always changing my routine, but O2 serum is the one product I can never be without again! I feel like I should be carrying a vial of it in my purse for emergencies, lol! |

I agree with Liz...O2 Serum really is a wonder product! I love all my PSF products (balancing oil, retinol 1%, R & R Toning Mist, HA Serum, etc.)...but my favorite is the Phyto-Lift Cranberry Eye Gel. Goes on beautifully, sinks in quick...and yes, it DOES lift! I'll never be without this stuff!

Once again will someone tell me what the O2 is good for? I don't have acne or even blemish-prone skin, so I've never really thought I could use this for much since that's what I hear everyone say they use it for. |

Well, according to the PSF website, the O2 serum not only fights acne, but it also extends the life expectancy of skin cells, protects against collagen loss, and helps to slow down the aging of the skin. So, I guess I look at is as an insurance policy, not only against acne, but also against other kinds of skin damage.^-^ |

I've heard so many great things about the O2 Serum, I'd love to buy it on my next order.
When do you use it? Right now I'm using the PSF C 20% Serum in the AM and then I'll use the JB Blemish Serum on my Tzone, followed with my daily moisturizer, and then at night I'll use the PSF Retinol 1% product, alternating days with the JB Antioxident. When would you suggest using the O2 Serum? I'm so worried about overdoing things ... using too many products and am trying to streamline things a bit. I'm not too sure about the JB Antioxident (if it's doing anything for me), so I may stop using that if things become too complicated with adding a new product. |

For me, O2 serum is the easiest thing to add--- it feels just like adding another toner. I apply it after I cleanse and tone, and after c serum/blemish serum I reapply on really troubled spots. HTH! |

Is O2 serum for oily skin? |

Initially I didn't think much of the claims for the O2 serum. I bought it just to try but figured it'd be a one-time purchase. Now that I've been using it for a month, I've completely changed my mind. Last week I didn't use it for a few days - another case of too many products, too little time - and my skin took a drastic turn for the worse I had clogged pores and new pimples cropping up but afterward one use of the O2, red spots were diminished and the pimples never developed into full size ones.
I don't know how the O2 works but it does! |

I personally like Stimucoll very much and have been using it for about 4 months. Pumpkin Peel and Firming Toner are very good too.
But Super Emergen C and Retinol are not for me. I've tried a sample of Retinol and O2 Serum and used them together (sandwiching Retinol with 2 layers of O2 as recommended by some member here) but the Retinol just didn't seem to sink in. |

Should the O2 serum be used before everything else, directly on cleansed and dried skin? I'm thinking I'd like to try incorporating it into my routine. I use ISC active and super serums currently, would these go on top of the O2? |

Nymue: I've been using the O2 serum since it came out and really like it.
I use it on a clean dry face after toner and under all of my other actives. I think it allows the skin to absorb the actives more efficiently. I also spot treat any red spots I have throughout the day.
I don't use it on top as some others do. It is water based and I can't see how it would be effective over oil-based products.
I find it to be very good on reactive skin. I have a light skin color which reacts to every irritant and this has really evened my skin tone and healed minor problems as when I over peel. |

Erm, could anyone tell me how one uses the 02 serum? I've just gone on the PSF site and read that it's a spray. So I guess one sprays it? Not to be daft or anything but does one spray it on the troubled areas or all over and then some?
Also, has anyone done one of the sample packs from PSF? Just curious. |
