Hi there,

I am thinking to order one of the subjected two creams to replace my Gly Derm Lotion Lite 10 because the lotion seems making my skin more and more dry (I have combination to dry skin).

Please share with me if this two creams have similiar functions? And when should use it (morning / nite, before B5 Gel?)

Also, I have got SkinCeuticals Serum 15 sample which also speed up my dryness. Please advise if I should order Serum 10? Vit C+E or maybe Cellex-C serum for Sensitive Skin? Which on is more mild?

Many Thks

Hi Anna

My skin is quite dry and dehydrated. I have not tried Skinceutical's Renew Overnight but my experience with Cellex C Smooth Skin Complex has been very good - I usually wake up to a more moisturized, smoother and even looking face. I use it on alternate nights as advised by Cellex C, after cleansing, toning and hydrating (B5), before lightening treatment like Phyto+ and moisturizer (if needed).

As for your question about Vit C - it depends if you have sensitive skin.

Tf you have dry skin like me, Vit C +E is better. If you are new to this Vit C regime, I would suggest starting with Vit C for Sensitive Skin (7.5%). Starting on too high a strength tends to cause break outs. The Vit C for Sensitive skin should be a good start. I did that too in the beginning and have now progressed to using Vit C+E (15%).

Anna,
I use skinceuticals renew and like Jenny with Cellex C skin smooth (I haven't used this) I find my skin smoother and clearer. I find my makeup goes on easier on the mornings after I have used it. I use Renew at least five times a week as part of my night regime.
