Using a Mineral Makeup with 302 should be fine. I looked up Lucy Minerals and they aren't using the Coffee Berry anymore.
Priori has a mineral makeup with Coffee Berry extract. It's sold here on EDS. |

Hey Nakidknits,
You use the ointment has a sunscreen correct? I was wondering how much do you apply to your face and neck? I've used the ointment a couple of times for a sunscreen. It's just hard to know how to much to apply!
|
I use a pea-sized amount on top of the Calming Mist. I spray my face until it's pretty damp, then quickly spread the Rx Ointment. I don't rub it in. If I'm going to be in the sun, I also wear a hat. |
Thank you for your reply! I always wear sunglasses and a hat as well! |

On their website I thought it had Coffee fruit extract or some such ingredient, but anyway, I guess my real question is: Is coffee berry or fruit an acid? Thanks for your response. Marilyn |

Hey Marilyn,
I don't believe coffee berry is an acid. I think it contains ferulic acid but I don't think it's an acid acid if that makes any sense. I could be wrong though! |

Thanks for the info. I don't know what ferulic acid is, but I will check into it and maybe check out whether anyone has tried makeup with this stuff in it to see if they liked it. Marilyn |

I thought Coffee Berry was what the coffee bean was called before it is dried?
Obv I have no idea and this is just a guess.
I'm kind of curious of this ingredient as I was just given a Revale Skin coffee berry cleanser when I bought something on another site
But I did not remember to look into this ingredient yet.
I do know that how we have the coffee beans here they are roasted and only the hard part is called a coffee bean,
But I know there is another word for when the plant is still growing and fresh.
Off to google to check...... |

Hi
Can anyone help me? I just bought a bellaire ultrasound but do not know how to use it with 302 products. Its written on the instruction to place some gel on the gadget. Should i place the 302 drop on the gadge instead of the gel or should I wet my face and then apply the drops on my face with my hands and then use the ultrasound.
And also its mentioned in the instruction that neck area should be avoided. Then should i use hands as usual for the neck area. Please advise. Thank you guys in advance.

Hello,
I wonder if there are still 302 skincare-users here? I`m still using this line (since 2 years) and I´m very happy with it.
Does anyone know why they discontinued the Hi Potency Drops and 302 Hi Potency Serum? |

No - I tried it for 6 months and my skin never liked it. It took another 6 - 8 months to clear my complexion up from using it. I'm glad it's working out for you, though. |

I'm still using 302 and like it very much. I'd like to add a gentle exfoliator, though, and would love a 302-compatible recommendation. |

@foxe: I´m sorry that your skin was breaking out with 302, mine was actually, too in the first months and it took a while. Now my skin is actually clearer than ever so that I dare for the first time to leave my house without any make up, only transparent mineral foundation for sun protection. Did you use the 302 cleaner, I´m not using it anymore - only the face bar and my aleppo soap and in the mornings only water....it might have been also the liquid cleaner that made my skin break out...
@nakeidknits: Unfortunately I don´t know of such an exfoliator. I´m using a skin brush to exfoliate once every week or second week. |

Sad that nobody is talking about this line anymore, it seems like things come and go here in fads.
I just started using the A boost and it is the best vitamin A product I've found yet. It makes my skin so smooth and soft without the irritation that I often get with Retin-A, loving it so far.
On the other hand, the drops I've used over a 6 month period (literally just the drops and and some sort of carrier oil, with very little cleansing, moisturizing or other manipulation) and saw really no change other than the benefits that came with stopping acids and other harsh skincare treatments cold turkey. So, I'm not so sure I'm entirely convinced of the miracle of this 302 avocatin molecule, but I'm still using it for the time being. |

302 actually makes a gentle Enzyme-based exfoliator, that's called... "Exfoliator"
It works very nicely, though it works best with a steamer I have a few clients that just cover their head with a towel and run hot water from the sink to get the job done.

Hey Migi,
The high-potency products have been discontinued to make the line simpler and more user friendly - the same pure, pharmaceutical grade Avogen is now being used to create the 302 Drops and 302 Serum. For clients who would like something more intense, the 302 Plus Serum has been reformulated with pharmaceutical 302 Avogen, and Niacinamide

If you like the A-Boost, you should Try the Clarity! I was inlove with A-Boost until Clarity came out-
A-Boost is a .75% Retinol and 6% Retinyl Palmitate, whereas the Clarity is a 10% Retinyl Acetate - I find it very effective.
Also, if you feel the 302 Drops are not making a difference, they probably aren't penetrating your skin deeply enough. Try steaming the face with warm towels before applying the drops, or using it after showering to increase penetration. Also, gentle facial massage or best case scenario Ultrasound really makes that stuff hit the dermal layers of the skin. In reality, I used 302 Drops and A-Boost for over a year before I actually looked at my skin one day and was like "...Holy crap! Look at my skin!" the Anti-Acne benefits were pretty immediate (3-4 months) but the scarring and skin smoothing took well over a year for significant progress. Over 2 years later, I'm still using 302 and the scars are almost all gone and I haven't aged at all (than again, I'm only 24) and I still have no Acne, so It's definitely my HG.

I'm new here. I came upon this forum when looking to download the 302 Consumer guide online at the 302 site. After skimming info. here I decided to register, and "chime in" because from this thread it almost looks like nobody uses 302 anymore, and that surprised me. I use, and absolutely adore this line. My Mom also converted years ago after seeing the change to my skin, and her skin is better for sure. I was diagnosed with chronic Acne Rosacea 2009 at age 37. Found 302 in 2011. Cleared my skin fairly quickly- was my diagnosis wrong? I use all 302 Rx formulas for sensitive skin which now includes anti-aging products. Mom uses regular 302 anti-aging & new more powerful products. I have been purchasing from 21st-Century Skincare. They send news, and tips for use which I love, and I connect w/ Esthetician's Jennifer, and Vanessa every 6 months or so. We switch up my regimen which now focuses more on anti-aging. I first thought this was odd. It seems to keep my skin improving. My Mom does this also. I love all the new products 302 continues to add. More powerful solutions, and more gentle Rx products- something for everyone. Anyhoo, that's that. Will be perusing EDS for other topics, and happy to communicate more about 302 products if anyone is interested. |

Hi, i am still using Remedy rx,and has done so for years.Its my best cream ever,and in fact the only one i can use.After unsuccesful acid treatment on my skin,the damage caused rosacea.I had never had that problem before.
Remedy rx is the only cream that can soothe my skin.I can easily live with my rosacea now,but its not gone.On cold winther days my skin is red and irritated.
I stock up when i shop,so i have cream for a year ahead:) |

I've used 302 skincare for over 10 years now. I only use 302 skincare because I haven't found anything better. Before I used 302, my skin was a ruddy, oily, acne-scarred, and pore ridden mess. Now it's smooth, normal, and even toned. It's kept my skin looking at least 15-20 years younger than my true age. I think the reason you don't read about it is because it's not readily available. You can't just buy it without a professional guiding you on what products to use, which is a good thing. You could majorly mess your skin up by overusing or choosing the wrong products because they are very active ingredients. A little goes a very long way. The line is not loaded with cheap crap or hype and I really appreciate that it's not ladened with chemicals and fragrances.302 is like a hidden gem in the sea of vastly overrated skincare products. I've talked to Jennifer at 21st Century in the past and she's a sweetheart. I think we started using 302 about the same time, 2005. |

Zenia, and Zello thanks for the details.
Zenia; I agree,Remedy Rx is a product I cannot live without. I use for so many things like burns, and gardening rahes that I get from touching certain plants. If you have problems with redness the Sensitive Drops Rx used 3 times weekly should work wonders to strengthen your skin which makes it less red. The Calming Mask Rx used once a week really kicks the redness right down quickly which is very impressive to me.
Zello; So nice to hear you are looking so young. What a tribute to these products. If I may ask, what products are you using?
I am considering trying the Ceramide Serum when I run through my current C Boost Rx, and Drops Rx? The Ceramide is fairly new, and from what I understand it can effect the dermal area of skin in a different way when paired with any of the various active products to further enhance improvement. I believe it was suggested to alternate this Ceramide Serum with A Boost Rx for 2-3 months time to build out the deeper dermis for more collagen production. I think I have that right... |
