Hi I'm looking to replenish my Vit C serum and face moisturiser, can I get some recs based on my requirements?
1. Vit C serum - Have tried PSF, JB, Vivier 10 and Viver C+E, prefer C+E given it is non-comodogenic. However, thinking of trying a higher potency so likely Vivier 20 but was attracted to Vivier SEEQUIN as I have pigmentation and freckles. What are your thoughts on Viver 20 and has anyone tried Vivier SEEQUIN with results? Any idea on the level of Vit C in that?
2. Face Moisturiser - Have been a regular user of Dermalogica Skin Smoothing Cream. Happy with it but was thinking of trying out a new product. Any recs? Defiinitely need this to be non-comodogenic.
Thanks! |

Have you tried SkinMedica? A few members really like their Vit. C as it is very stable. I didn't care for it because it is silicone based and I don't like the slip factor of it. I do like their Retinol product and Rejuvenating moisturizer. And they aren't too expensive, relatively speaking!!  |

Not vit. C based, but you might want to consider the following products for your use.
Moisturizers: PRIORI Moisturizing Facial Cream with Idebenone or Sovage Idebenol.
Pigmentation: PRIORI Even Tones with Idebenone, Remergent Clarifying Concentrate & Remergent DNA Repair Formula. |

| Moisturizer - I've been using Skingenic's Regenerating Moisturizer and absolutely love it! It has idebenone, hyaluronic acid and a wealth of other actives in it. It's a bit pricey, but worth every penny. |

| I just ordered the SkinMedica C serum after using Skinceuticals for a long time. I like the Skinceuticals but the SkinMedica sounds so interesting and has gotten very good reviews. |

| Thanks for the suggestions, I had a quick browse through the reviews for SkinMedica Vit C and it seems to bring out quite a few concerns over blackheads and clogs, especially over its silicone base? I am not sure what silicones do to your skin but I am highly susceptible to clogs and congestion hence always try and stick to non-comodogenic products eg Vivier C+E. Although the postitives for SkinMedica Vit C sound very appealing, I dont think I can deal with risk of clogs at all. Does anyone else have thoughts on this? Priori Even Tones looks interesting, even though I am not seeking a product to deal with pigmentation as such - cos i have tried too many and they dont work for me. Only laser treatment works. Has anyone used this with good results? Helps that it is stated as non-comodogenic! |

| I suggest you with Cellular skin rx vit C and PSF HA serum to moist your skin after vit c. I use this regime and I love it. |
