So, I work at home some days, which means, if I want to, I can put facial goo on as often as I want.

If I put on say, glycolic gel at 8am -- when is it "done" exfoliating? If I wash it off at 10am, have I lost anything?

What about if I put on Godiva Licorice Cream? If I wash and reapply every hour, am I gaining anything?

Serums? are they absorbed in 20 minutes? all day? whaddya think?

Am I a complete nutter or is there some bennie to reapplying frequently?

I'm so glad you've posted those links, particularly the one by Tangal. I thought of that post the other day reading the thread on Cellbone and vitamin c wait times. Personally, I think that post should be stickied somewhere as it's quite concise and valuable information. Thanks again.

washing and applying a product every hour maybe be doing too much on the skin Shock
may cause up irritating it......also washing so much probly end up stripping the skin too much..
