I have a question:
Dr. H only makes day creams as they believe your skin should be left bare during the night. Do any of you use these during the night time anyway? I can't bear to go to bed without my night cream, and have been using the rose cream during the night.
Any comments? |

I'm with you. Can't imagine not doing my nightly routine. Do you know the reasoning behind why the Dr. H. line recommends this. Very interesting. |

I think it's because skin does it's regeneration at night and it needs to 'breathe'. Also, the Dr. H philosophy is to teach your skin to produce the right amount of oil, not to make it dependant on constant moisturizing. I use Dr. H a lot, and I personally go to sleep bare-faced. I spritz the toner on at night and that's it (except for my lip balm, gotta have that on at night!!) My skin looks much better since I started with Dr. H, so I am pretty happy. But I must add that I am naturally oily, so not having cream on my face at night probably wouldn't affect me so much.
Oh, and it's a lot easier on my pillow. |

| I usually do use a cream at night except for when I'm doing the 28-day course of the Rhythmic Night Conditioner. I'm using this at the moment (6 days to go!) and the only other thing I use at night is an eye cream. |

I am planning to purchase a Dr. H moisturizer. I really want to support EDS, this forum has been truly awesome. Since moisturizer is next on my list I have been checking out the Dr. H products.
Has anyone used more than one of the offerings and found they have a preference? I can't decide between them.
Thanks |

I use the normalizing day oil since I have oily skin, and it helps to control the overproduction of oil. If I get any dry spots I use Quince Day Cream, which I prefer over the Rose Day Cream (don't care for the smell of roses, and it's a bit too rich for me since my skin is never very dry) and the Moisturizing Day Cream (too liquidy).
The company itself recommends Rose Day Cream for dry, sensitive skin; Quince Day Cream for normal, dry, sensitive skin; Moisturizing Day Cream for normal, dry skin; Normalizing Day Oil for oily/impure skin.
Have fun deciding, and I'm sure you'll be pleased with your purhcase.  |

Thanks,
I am not using the whole Dr. H skin care system at the moment, just trying out different products. So I will stick to using a nightcream for a while. Espcially with a very cold Alberta wintering right around the corner!!! -52 anyone???? That was our all time low last January.
But in my opinion Rose day cream is the pefrect night cream for harsh winters and dry sensitive skin. |

I have combination skin, DR H rose cream at night during harsh cold weather is perfect! I even use it in the daytime when it's really dry and cold outside. I actually like the scent of it...v calming and soothing
Also, I would like to recommend Decleor essential oil (I use the rose type at night and Neroli in the morning) in place of a night cream, sometimes, I just use this rose oil alone, feel so gd and balanced~~ very pleased with it! 
I really want to try Dr H toned day cream though, anyone tried it yet?  heard that it is an alternative for a tinted moisturizer, bid concern for Dr H day creams is that they never come with a SFP. I realized that they provide another whole range of suncare products, anyone tried it and any comments? Thanks for sharing ~~~~ |
