Hi,

I know one has to use these at different times of the day, but does anyone know the necessary elapsed time between applications?

If I apply CPs at 11:00 PM can I apply Vitamin C at 7:00 AM?

Thanks!

It's recommended that you wait at least 12 hours between the two.
I use vit. c serum in the am and copper serum in the pm. If you use them too close together, the Vitamin C will loose it's effectiveness.

Last night I wanted to see what would happen if I applied my Vit. C and then my copper on top (1 hour later). When I woke up this morning I had rusted overnight! Laughing Totally looked like a fake tan gone realllll bad.

I called Skin Bio about that a couple of months ago, because of my work schedule I needed to know. They said 8 hours in between was fine but not less than that.

Thanks all! Eight to twelve hours seems to be a safe wait!

Glad to know it's only the C that would be rendered ineffective if used with CP, and not both. I applied a moisturizer that contains a C in it this AM after I applied CP serum, and was like "OOOPSS" Well, since I didn't really care if the C in the moisturizer would be effective or not, it makes me feel better that the CP is fine.

skincarefreak,

Thanks for the info. I'm glad to hear that 8 hours is ok. I've been trying to do the 12 hour thing, but some days, it's just not possible.

Thanks Ladies...you have made the info in this thread so clear! Very Happy
I will be ordering the CP from Skin Bio, and I can start right away with the right routine.
I am planning Vit C serum (cellex C), and antioxidant serum (Juice Beauty Green Apple), in the morning and CP at night.
I am 50+, with normal combination skin, which is very tolerant. I am a bit confused as to which CP to start with...any suggestions??

luvyourskin - start with the regular CP serum, or the one of the P&R cream verions.

I wouldn't worry too strictly about timings. I don't usually go to bed til 12 or 1 or so and I'd use CPs then I could sometimes have to be at work for 7.00. It worked just great.
