| They sell raw ingredients like Ascorbic Acid and Arbutin. I'm wondering if the powders really work as well as expensive name-brand formulations... |

I didn't use to buy ingredient from skinactive,I used to buy from bulkactive in taiwan.
For me,bulkactives sell ingredients cheaper than skinactive.
If you have a lot of time,it's quite good and cheap.
I bought Hyaluronic Acid and L-Ascorbic Acid from here. |

I have purchased some items from skinactives. I like their canvas base, which is a neutral cream that you can use for your actives. I like the retinol active as well. The marine serum is lovely as well...quite suitable for sensitive skin, or if your skin has a sensitive period.
I did not like the seakelp gel, I found it too sticky to use it in creams, so I would not order that one.
Other actives are too ott for me, for example ibenone, which smelled odd and made my face itch. |

I've used an ibenedone cream and it irritated my skin as well.
I'm really wondering whether i should buy Skincueticals C E Ferulic from my favourite ebay seller or try making my own for much cheaper with skin actives ingredients... |

I've ordered from both skin actives and bulkactives with satisfaction. I would order from bulkactives for a cheaper price while would order the stuff that bulkactives doesnt have from skinactive!  |

hi there,
I have ordered from skinactives and been happy with the service. They made some ready-made products that are good too, I like Let's Make Collagen. Good info on the site. Maybe a bit gung-ho about just mixing everything together without thinking about interactions though!
Sometimes prices can be cheaper elsewhere though, depends on the active...
hope this helps! |
