For some reason my Sunscreen which is from MD formulations is balling up with my Photolagen. When I don't use it and use the samples of Valmont it does not.

What sunscreen should I use??

Also, I am thinking of buying the Perfect Reflection Serum, as I am loving the Photolagen and Tripeptinon at night. How should I use this? Should it go under the Photolagen?

Has anyone used the Therapeutic Facial Repair and the Counter Clockwise under eye treatment and LOVING IT????

Sorry - I know its a lot of questions! Wink Please help! Confused

I've used the MD Formulations sunscreen and it balled up on me too, but I wasn't using the Photologen with it. It may be the sunscreen. I like Shiseido SPF55 Cream

I just use the MD on my neck and chest now as I had the same problem when applying my make-up. I'm using the Dermalogica on my face now and have had no problems with balling up!

Thanks skincarefreak and sportygirl for you sunscreen recommendations. Great idea of using the MD on the neck and chest, and not be chucked away in some drawer - sportygirl.

My guess is you don't use the other products of Ameno Genesis. Crying or Very sad

Thanks Majorb, I was thinking about Clarins, as I have heard it is a light weight sunscreen with a mat finish. Will go and buy it - now that know it works with AG line.


IS ANYONE USING THE OTHER PRODUCTS OF AMINOGENESIS - OTHER THAN THE PHOTOLAGEN AND TRIPEPTON??????

ANYONE USING REFLECTION SERUM??? DOES IT GO BEFORE OR AFTER THE PHOTOLAGEN? Very Happy Very Happy

Rashirosey:

I had a conversation with Amino Genesis SA few months ago and was told to use Reflection Serum at AM (Anti-oxidant) and Photolagen at PM (Repair) if you were using both. HTH

Valmont??? I thought we are talking about Amino Genesis here!!! Laughing Laughing Laughing

I've used Valmont Renewing Pack, DNA Repair Serum, Cyto III, Contour Cellular Eye and Mouth Cream. The only item I can see some "effect" on me is the Renewing Pack. But I've used the full line of Amino Genesis and lots of other brands. The only brands I can see BIG improvement are Jan Marini and Juvedical. I'm talking about using them for 3 weeks. Maybe I'll get some result if I used up the jar but I'm so impatient to wait. Sometimes I was thinking, for those skin care products I used which I did not see improvement, maybe they are working in "background" somewhere. Because I've stopped using JM and Juvedical for about 2 or 3 months and trying so many other brands BUT my skin is till in a good condition and getting better. So I guess some of the products I used are doing something w/o I knowing it.

I know the feeling MACrisis, just wish I had the will power to resist looking at all these reviews. LOL bushi's reviews....he, he. Eds has been nice enough to send me some Valmont samples the illuminating cream and serum, have been using it for just 2 days and loving it. My face looks lit up Razz There is so many creams to choose from the Valmont line alone, its so confusing. I like the AG line because of its lifting and firming properties, but I feel I need a good hydration cream Sad

Thanks MACrisis for taking the time to answer my questions Wink

Its the samples of Radiance cream and Radiance serum that I have been using from the Valmont line - not the illuminating Question

Rashirosey, I used the Perfect Reflection in the morning followed by a moisturising sunscreen and the Photolagen in the evening followed by Tripeptinon. When I integrate the products with Remergent products, I follow the same routine.

At the moment, I am using only the Valmont L Elixir Eye Cream over Remergent Microcirculation and L Elixir Face Cream by itself at night and under Remergent SPF during the day as I want to fully test rsults of the L Elixir.
To answer your questions, in the am I used Perfect Reflection under Barrier Repair of a morning and Photolagen on top of DNA Repair of a night when I used Amino Genesis with Remergent.

Thanks Bushy for answering my questions Cool

Now I can go back to sleep Very Happy

Will try the same routine as the one you followed with Remergent and AG.

Looking forward to hearing your review on the L'Elixir face cream Very Happy
