Wow! What a visible difference!
Initially I was worried the serum was too much for me because I seemed to have some flaking after a few days use (in the AM), but I stuck with it and this week (my second week)my skin looks the best in years. Three people have commented on my skin already! I am 43 yrs old, and using Tazorac for it's anti-aging properties at night. I have used a couple of brands of C-serums in the past, but nothing compares with SkinMedica. Expensive but worth it! |

It's great isn't it when something you put on your skin makes enough difference for people to commment in a good way.  |

It sure is nice! It's a relief after spending so much money on products. This has been nothing short of amazing for me. I get Botox around my crows feet which I really like, and IPL treatments from my Derm plus I use Tazorac and Finacea at home. I like them all, but the SkinMedica seems to outdo them all in terms of visual enhancement. Atleast I can now say I have one holy grail product! I just received my Dr. Hauschka Trial set in the mail today. I'm here at work sniffing it! Smells great. I can't wait to get home and try it. |

Hi, what is tazorac and Finacea. I have never heard of these things. I must be a total ignoramus because I keep on asking people stupid questions. Sorry. I hate not knowing things.  |

Not stupid questions at all! Tazorac is one of the prescription Retinoids with the active ingredient Tazarotene. In my opinion and my derms it is the strongest of the RX retinoids. Some people have strong reactions to it (drying, flaking, redness), but I really like it. I use it every other night for it's anti-aging properties.
Finacea is another rx product that has 15% azelaic acid and is mainly prescribed for rosacea. I don't have rosacea, but I use it for reducing red spots left over from those occasional outbreaks. You know how those red places seem to stay forever after the cyst or bump is gone. I have just started using this and forget to use it every AM as prescribed, so I can't rave about it yet.
Hope this helps!

Heheh! Sorry for the boring answer. I know it wasn't what you were hoping for. Prescription topicals are so blah! |

Loopylori,where do you buy your relax-a-line?
I'm from UK too and haven't seen it on a UK sale-site.
Thanks,Chloe |

hi, you get it from cellularskinrx.com. It's only $36. Ask them to put it in plain bag and mark it gift because us Brits keep getting hit on by the customs I had to pay an extra £16.60 thanks to customs and post office and they didn't have a clue what the value of the parcel was.Thieving B's. I did order 2 x relax and a vit c serum.It came within 2 weeks, but it would have been much quicker if customs hadn't got hold of it. You wont regret trying it, it's brilliant.
