Do I have to alternate the ISC poly vit serum with the Avene Ystheal or Dianceal or can I use both on the same night? If I can use them on the same night, which would go first? (I am currently using Ystheal but am thinking about switching to Dianceal). Thanks in advance.  |

they are definitely two different animals and i would recommend alternating -- otherwise you might just diffuse the effect of either.
that said, i *was* using Diacneal (alternating with Active) and have temporarily switched to using Active every night with Eluage over it and am *loving* the results. i don't know if it's this combo and/or the Eve Lom cleanser i just got, but for the first time in my life i actually have glowy skin!!!  |

| Thank you la vie. May I ask what Eulage is? I have heard of it, but do not know anything about this. Thanks again! |

Eluage is Avene's newest formulation -- kind of a Ystheal with added H/A (and a scent). it's a .5 like Ystheal, but the H/A is supposed to make it penetrate better. it could be a load of bollocks, but i'm definitely enjoying the effect.... Diacneal nightly was too drying, Active alone wasn't enough. i was happy enough alternating them, but was intrigued when someone (was it marina?) asked about layering Active with a retinal so i decided to give it a try. my skin is quite definitely happier at the moment.
you understand the reason i recommended *not* layering the Poly Vit, don't you? it's supposed to be good for resting and restoring the skin, while the Ystheal/Diacneal makes is an active (like Active).... if the retinal alone, however, is too much for you, you might try layering it by applying Ystheal/Diacneal first and letting it soak in (recommended 30 minutes -- but whatever) and then putting on the Poly Vit to buffer it. i still think it would be a waste, but you never know without trying |

| Ok, understand la vie. I did not know the poly vit was a rest, but I wanted to try this as I was using active, and then active plus firming cream and not seeing results. I will first alternate and see how that goes then! Maybe if I don't get results I will try the Active plus Eulage! Thanks so much for your help. |

| La vie en rose - I finally got my Eluage and am on my 2nd night using it. I also ordered the ISC Active. I was curious if you are still using this combination and what results you have noticed after this length of time? Thanks so much in advance! |
