mentoramy - have you tried using the search button for those posts?
try typing in "jojoba" in the search line and "ARYA2" in the author line and see what comes up |
Yes, I actually did a search for "JOJOBA" earlier, but I didn't see the "Author" Box until you mentioned it.
Thank you
I was able to locate several posts from diffrent members, in reference to using the Jojoba....Seems like it is a pretty good oil.... I do like it, as of now.....looking forward to receiving and trying the Hazelnut. I am also still waiting on the UGG MMU....Looking forward to getting both products.
Warmest regards,
Amy |

Thank you, boski, for contacting Dr H so quickly on that. You're a dear
Do you happen to know what he means by 'fossilized' here? I can only imagine...
Retin A and Acne/Clarity Serum makes sense to me for those who are fossilized or need to put the hurt on acne
Glad you found what you needed, amy |

Sorry to keep asking all the questions.....but I get easily confused. "no kidding"
It says on the 302 Website that the 302 Drops should be used as follows: every other day for the first week and then everyday there after. From what I have read and been told by Jennifer & others, one should keep the usage of this active to 2-3 times per week.
If the skin is doing okay and has no bad reactions, should one try applying nightly after the forst week or should 2-3 nights a week be maintained?
If a bad reaction occurs, does it normally occur within 24 hours of applying the product?
I used the 302 Drops tonight (2nd time) and I definately feel the diffeence in todays application, when compared to Mondays application. I can actually feel the product on my face tonight, whereas I could not on Monday. I think I actually did not apply enough the first night that I did the application, in fear that I would use too much. (I am now hoping that I did not use to much tonight, as it came out quicker than last time.
My face does feel a little dry now (after application) and there is a very slight tingle to my face. Is this normal or is it from over-application?
TY,
Amy |

Amy, I've read on the 302 site that the 302 Serum/Drops CAN be used nightly after a few weeks but I'm pretty sure NOT ONE person here does that. I could be wrong though.
I have a question. This happens not just with 302 but with other lines I've used. Any topical Vitamin C seems to bring out broken caps on my cheeks. I don't have a ton of them but when I use the CBoost, they are definitely more prominent the next morning.
Anyone know why? Should I back off the C 3Xwk? I'm not sure what I should do.

I was actually told I should use the 302 every night. I am using the serum though. I have been using 302 for about 3 weeks now and from day 1 had no reactions at all. I use the cleanser in the evening and the bar in the morning. My skin looks more even in color. Actually a bit pale now but I guess I was used to the brown. I am going to add in the C a few nights a week soon and then the Clarity once a week only. The C Boost feels a little oily for me. I tried it a few times already. I don't particularly like that part. I wake up feeling oilier on my T zone than I usually do. They thought I was using too much. That could be. It will feel better once the humidity and temperature drops here in a few months.
I asked Dr. H about any suction type gadgets (he was not familiar with Vaculifter) but I described it. He said he thinks we have to be very careful and he would be cautious about these things because he feels it could loosen the skin even more. But he could be wrong about this. |

That is great, in that you have not had any negative reactions. I am hoping that I will be the same.
Jennifer at 21st Skincare basically told me that there was not alot of diffrence in the drops and serum. She said she prefers and recommends the drops because you get more, for less, and they do the same thing. I guess it is basically a "preference" of one to the other.
Did you start out using the serum every night in the first week also? I am no expert, by any means, but from what Jennifer has told me and what I have read here, that seems to be alot, but if it is working for you, then that is fantastic. You may feel less oily if you cut back to every other night and it will also save you money long term, which is always a good thing. Then you could buy more products, which is also another great thing.
I also would like to add a "gadget" to my routine. I would like to start "Derma Rolling", but I have to find out alot of info. on it....as I have no clue where to get it, etc. I did watch a clip from YouTube where Rachel Ray had a dermatologist on her show speaking of how good it was/is. |

The serum is not making me oily. Just the C Boost. Wonder what others are doing then on the off days? Just wash and go to sleep? I will be moving to using the C on alternate days anyway to the bottles will last longer.
I do think something makes my right eye tear. I am not sure which product it is. I am also using the eye serum but not every day. I was trying to experiment to see what was causing it. It is still a mystery to me and maybe it was just coincidence and not related at all to the 302.
I am using the Clarisonic a few nights a week with the second step of the cleanser and I love it. I am definitely getting the EzziPeel. I hear it really helps loosen up the gunk in the pores. I think I might see more reactions after I start the Acne serum and the Eezi Peel. I have some bumps under my skin and they will probably start to work their way out. |

I think they are also alternating.....Some, I have read, just use a carrier oil. I also just use the carrier oil on my off days. I wash with the Face & Body Bar and then put the Jojoba oil on, if needed. |

I think by "fossilized" he means people who severely damaged skin, which has thinned, become impenetrable from excessive crosslinking, looks like a mummy, in other words. I think your skin is on it's way to being healthy and you don't fit the "fossilized" category anymore. I know many people still have the mindset "the stronger the better", but from my personal experience, sometimes the regular strength actives are better in the long-run. I still use all the regular strengths of C Boost, A Boost, serum/drops and just use the Hi-potency stuff on a rare occasion to jolt the skin a little. You want to surprise your skin once in awhile. |

The lipids (oily actives) like the C and A Boost will seep into the eye and can cause irritation if you get it too close to the lid. I would stop about 1/2 inch from the lashline. It will still migrate downward. If you are feeling oily after applying, you are not using enough mist or water to dilute it with or you are using too much. Cut the amount back (only 2 or 3 drops is needed) and spread on a moistened face, neck, chest until no greasy feel. I recommend people to not use anything on a daily basis, even if you CAN, doesn't mean you need to. This is to reduce the risk of receptor fatigue. Cut back the use to 2 or 3x/week. And on off days, all you do is wash and apply Recovery Minerals if you want, or a carrier oil if you don't have the RM. That's it. If you are accustomed to putting on multiple layers of products morning and night, this aspect of 302 skincare will take time to get comfortable with. But in the long run it's better for your skin and saves you time and money. No harm in that. |

Amy,
I thought you would find this email from Dr H interesting. I don't know if you realize this, but many, if not all, of the 302 products contain jojoba oil in them. I asked him why they use it, since people often break out from straight Jojoba, and this was his reply. This is probably somewhere in the thread, but I know you wanted the details about application:
As to jojoba, we read the studies that claimed jojoba would actually reduce acne formation and then talked it over with the best guy I know in this area and ran some tests on really bad acne and it turns out the rumors were true – we did see a marked reduction and not a single case of increased breakouts. This is consistent with the chemical structure of jojoba versus say, avocado oil or safflower oil which radically increase breakouts. The thing to remember with our jojoba based products is to apply a lot of mist or water to the face and neck (think of them as concentrates) and to start application with a drop or two on the neck and work up – people who get bumps or feel greasy are not applying the products correctly – either way too much, and/or not enough water. The jojoba vehicle also allows us to avoid preservatives, keep things organic as much as possible and other good things. I think all that is necessary is to realize that it only takes a few drops to cover your face and neck, if properly wetted with water beforehand. We give this to cystic acne kids and get great results. |

Hi Lexy,
Didn't mean to ignore you, but I don't know why the C boost would be causing that and whether it's a bad thing or not. Like you said, I would cut back on the C boost and see if that helps. It might eventually lessen with time as your skin becomes normalized and then you can apply more often.
Did you ask your esthy? |

Thanks, Boski.
No I haven't asked her yet but I will. I figured you were quicker (and online at the moment) and probably knew everything. I'll send her a msg.
I upped my regime to 302 Drops 3Xwk and CBoost 3Xwk. It may be too much - that's my guess. |

I have not been using layers on my skin for years. I have been using only one serum on my face at the most after cleaning for over 3 years now. I changed around my skin care to be very simple and after that saw a huge improvement at that time. That could be why with 302 I am not seeing anything dramatic. Don't get me wrong I am seeing what I want to see - more refinement and more even color and I am so happy that is happening without having to use acids. I guess I can cut back to using the serum every other night then. I only have a week to go before I am supposed to alternate with the C anyway. But here I am confused. I really got the impression he told me to use the C 2-3 times per week and the Serum the rest. Did I misunderstand and I should leave my skin free of any serum, C, etc a few times a week? |

From what I know, that sounds like what Dr. H would recommend, mommydearest. (meaning the 302 alternating with the C) If he is the one who told you what to do, I would definitely listen to him! |

You may have misunderstood him, or he may have thought that for your specific sitation, daily use would be ok until you started alternating with the C. You could double check with him, but if you only have a week to go, it's probably not worth the trouble.
Important thing to remember, though - Dr Huber has always said that if you see good results, *back off with usage*; most people are tempted to apply more often but that causes your receptors to shut down and then your skin stops responding. Something to keep in mind if you ever need to troubleshoot. |

That is very interesting. My instincts would not tell me to back off. I would never add more. I have been only using very light minimal stuff on my skin for years. But I would not think of backing off if what I was using seemed to be working. Thanks for the tip. Maybe it is a good idea to let the skin rest from everything for one night anyway. Just mist it. |

I never did fit the 'fossilized' category. Some sun damage, yes - but definitely not mummified. It was mostly just 'bumps' on my skin from the raised hair follicles and 'some' redness when in the heat.
Even tho I don't think I've reached a plateau there yet, I might try to take a lil vacation and see what happens. |

Thanks guys for explaining this more throughly than I could have.
It definately makes sense (and saves money) & like stated, your skin needs a break.....especially when strong chemicals/actives/etc. are being applied.
I am assuming that 3 months is about the "average" time it is taking for most to see dramatic (noticeable) results, from the 302 Drops! Is it safe to make this assumption?
I am hoping that I am one of the many that see dramatic results (at least 50% better) within the next 3 months. |

Hey Everybody,
I have asked the moderator to lock this thread because the length of the thread is getting too long, and I think it may be sending the wrong message to people who see this thread. Just because this thread is huge, doesn't mean 302 skincare is going to work for everyone. 302 skincare is a total stand-alone system, a philosophy, and a totally new way of thinking about skincare. You cannot just add a few things into your existing regimen and expect optimal results. Some people will find this regimen too different and too rigid for them, and that's understandable. But for a successful outcome, it's vitally important you understand what 302 skincare involves and why it's done this way. It's a big commitment of time and money. Some people will have difficult transitions from their old skincare to 302 skincare, and you have to be prepared for this.
Also, I'm afraid that the length of this thread is turning off people from reading the entire thread, and that is a shame, because there is a ton of invaluable information contained within these pages. At the minimum, new people interested in using 302 skincare must read the "302 FAQ for Newbies" at the top of my first post. That is a summary of what 302 is and how it is different. 302 skincare is not like other skincare lines and cannot be used like other skincare. If you try to use it like a typical skincare line, you will run into problems. It is Professional Use Only, which means you need to consult with an esthetician or doctor before and while using it. The 302 thread should not be used as a substitute for that professional care, but as an adjunct. Read the thread to see how others have done with 302 and what the potential problems and solutions are. Also, we discuss gadgets and nutritional information, which will help speed and improve results.
If, after reading the FAQ, you still want to know more about 302, then I would schedule some time, even if only a few minutes each day, to read through the entire thread, focusing on Dr. Huber's (Dr. H) blue highlighted notes. Most of your questions will be answered somewhere along the way. As you read, take notes and make your own personalized notebook of information of what you think is important. Keep it in a Word document. This way, if you forget something, you will have it handy and don't have to search the whole thread again. Another suggestion: Don't buy anything until you have finished reading the thread. Information about new products and new findings are posted later in the thread, and you may buy something only to find out later there is now something better.
Once you have read the thread, consulted with, and gotten a regimen from an esthetician, then we would love to see you on our new thread, which is entitled: REVIEW: 302 Skincare Part 2: More Questions and Feedback.
So, I hope everyone understands why I am locking this thread and starting a new one. I want everybody who is interested in using 302 to know everything possible before they start, so there are no surprises. Knowledge of how the skin works and how 302 works WITH the skin, and not against it, is the key to success with this line. This information is contained in the various posts by Dr. Huber (highlighted in blue) throughout this thread, and I again HIGHLY recommend new users to read these. It's essentially a mini-course in biochemistry of the skin, for free. Dr. Huber is a PhD biochemist specializing in skin and bone regeneration for over 3 decades. You will never find this level of information in other skincare forums or even most consumer skincare books. Dr. Huber's posts are easy to understand, detailed, and he gives us a laugh or two along the way. After reading Dr. Huber's notes, the 302 philosophy should be totally clear. If you put the time into informing yourself before starting, you will save yourself a lot of headache, time, and money. You will not feel as lost when you start.
So, for new users, if you want to begin your 302 journey now, here is a link to the 302 FAQ thread in my 1st post.
To the 302 old-timers, thanks for all your support and contributions. It's been a wonderful exchange of information, and I would not be able to keep up without your help. I'll see you guys on the other thread!! |
