This subject has always bugged me. Ever since I heard SkinCeuticals was not allowing online sales of their products via other online vendors, I started buying my CE Ferulic straight from SkinCeuticals (at a much higher price). However, its been almost a year and I've started purchasing from skinmedix bc almost every site still sells CE Ferulic, in addition skinmedix actually now sells CF Phloretin which is brand new to the market. At first I was skeptical but when I receieved my CE Ferulic from them recently it was in perfect condition (very clear colored serum) and better than what I got from the skinstore (which I heard is only selling old stock now). Does anyone have any extra information on this? How can SkinCeuticals have stopped all sales from online vendors a yr ago when SkinMedix now is selling the new CF phloretin? Where does everyone else get their CE Ferulic/other skinceutical products? |

I have just recently ordered both the CE Ferulic and the newish serum 20 AOX samples sizes from a reputable ebay seller. I asked her the same questions after being concerned about the authenticity of the products. She told me she ran a salon and obtained her supplies from Skinceuticals.
I have yet to receive the products (I'm in the UK, shipping from US) so will let you know their freshness once they arrive. |

If you do a search, I remember a recent thread on EDS covering this very topic of "where" to buy. |

Thanks Nikita, yea I believe that is probably a legit purchase considering SkinCeuticals still sells products to salons and derm offices. Let me know what you think when you receive it. I am one of those people that get paranoid about the products they buy. I usually always tend to buy the higher priced brand name products over generics or products straight from official websites bc of the maxim, "you get what you pay for." But of course I want to save money! |

Thanks havana8,
I'll look through those threads. I hate being the new member that makes new threads of topics already discussed! lol |

What's your experience with SkinCeuticals so far? I use the cleansing cream, clarifying wash, and toner. Any allergies/irritation/dryness as a result of using them? I'm trying to rule out what's causing my irritation. Thanks! |

I'm in Vancouver BC, and visited BeautyMark in Yaletown today. They carry the SkinCeuticals line (although they were out of the CE Ferulic that I was interested in!). |

Received my ebay order today...6 sample size of CE Ferulic and 6 of Serum 20 AOX. Both sets of samples are virtually clear and seem absolutely fine.
I was very nervous about ordering from ebay but it seems that my worries were unfounded.
