I have tried both Cellex hydra and SC B5, I didn't see any different. The only difference that I noticed is that Cellex feels silkier on skin.

How is Cellex-C Hydrat B -5 compared to PSF HA? Any experience to share? Thanks!

Cellex-c is watery used mainly on top of the vit c to help push it in (according to the company). PSf HA is definitely more substantive, silky and makes a wonderful nightime moisturzer with emu (if you're dry you can use it during the day as well). I don't think dry skin will get enough from the cellex-c one but it is good for summer humid conditions. I also don't know how well it mixes with emu-I can try tonight and let you know.

Can anyone compare between Cellex C and Alphaderma products. I'm deciding.

I'm missing Skin Centical B5 gel and just purchased a PSF HA a few months ago (intended to subsitute B5 gel), not started yet. Will compare the difference later and come back with a comment. Arrow

Hi,

Would this work on its own as a moisturizer? I have unhappy skin at the moment and am on a quest for THE misturizer. I'm normally combo but dry right now and breaking out/bumpy... Crying or Very sad

I have oily skin but I still have to put a moisturizer on top of this serum (just so my makeup would go on smoother).

I like B5 Hydration Complex too. It is a good moiturizing serum by itself.

Just a friendly reminder not to use any products containing copper (copper peptides) with products containing vitamin c. They will cancel one another out!

I have found another hyaluronic acid serum which I really like. It is the Trish McEvoy Beauty Booster Serum and it is slightly heavier, but not sticky in texture with the added benefits of pentapeptides to firm and antioxidants to protect. I feel that this does a bit more for me than the Cellex C and halfway down my second bottle I can say that I am almost certain that my skin appears firmer.

I have the Cellex C and Hydration Complex. IMO, for dry skin, you definitely have to put on something more moisturizing afterward.

I just started to use the Cellex-C High Potency Serum and B5 and had a question about the application. Is it OK to spray water or an antioxidant spray first, then apply the Serum while your skin is still damp, or does the vitamin C serum have to be applied to a dry face? I find that it applies more evenly if I dampen my face first.

Diana P, I would think that would be fine. I put mine on after washing my face with a Clarisonic - with my skin still wet from rinsing. As you said, the wet face helps the product spread better.

I've been reading recently that I should be waiting 15-20 mins after I apply the vitamin C to apply other products. I had gotten the impression from the instructions on the B5 that I could apply it immediately after the vit C. So do I apply vit C, B5 then wait 20 mins?

I do wait a bit (probably 5 min. not 15) after applying the C to let it do some of its work before applying the Hydra B5.

Is this available in Canada? I'm sad that it isn't... so many good things to try...

Vote for Cellex-C B5 gel, I'm loving it, but really a bit pricey. Smile

I am all out of hyaluronic acid products and would like to know how PSF compares to the Cellex C because I have put myself on a bit of budget after my latest skin care sprees.

I received a sample of Cellex C Hydra 5B Complex. I love it. It has made my sensitive dry skin feel smooth and moist with a clean feeling. I still add moisturiser on top. I was a fool and didn't order it when the shopping channel had a special. I plan on trying it with the Cellex C vitamin C. With my sensitive skin there are not too many products I can tolerate this one works for me.
