| I am searching for Vit C serum now, have not used much, the only one I tried is newstrata which was recommended by my dermalogist, but it did not seem to do anthing to me. So, just threw it away. But i just found the threads emphasized so much on C serum,so I want to try it again. But I do not have any idea about which one is better--there are so many different types and labels. I tried to search the threads, but I should say, the searching engine of EDS is awful, I could not find out informative ones though I am sure there must be lots of discussion on it. Please kindly let me have your opinions or, let me have the threads if you know, thanks a lot. |

I have Natural Wealth Double C serum and i really don't know much about this brand. Their web is on the construction. This brand is very popular here in Croatia, our pharmacies selling lot of their vitamins.
On Internet there is not much about them.
As far as the serum - it seems good to me. It is yellow coloured and packed in plastic bottle with dropper. My skin is very very smooth after applying. But about quality I don't know much. |

Hey no worries you may aswell take advantage of others experiences. Maybe also you may like to have a look at reviews from MUAwww.makeupalley.com they have a huge range of different brands you can select can have reviews on.
Good luck with your search but definitely a worthwhile product to incorporate.  |

| I've been looking at Jason's Hyper-C Serum. Any thoughts on this one? http://www.mothernature.com/shop/detail.cfm/sku/84438/S/120105 . I've seen excellent reviews of this product but don't know anyone who has actually used it. I may just have to be the guinea pig. Thanks! |

| Hmmmm, just realized I only posted about a potential new C serum. I am currently using IS Clinical's ProHeal Serum which contains Vitamins A, C & E, as well as their C-Eye gel. They also make a stronger C serum, called Super Serum. Love the IS Clincial products! |

Hey JJ what results do you find with the Pro Heal and C Eye gel. I have used a few IS Clinical products and really like them, however the super serum I didnt find worked as well for me as Skinceuticals. Also I havent found a eye vitamin c product that I have liked so far except for Vivier which is difficult to get.. so particually interested in that.
Thanks |

Pal, I wasn't crazy about the Super Serum either for some reason, but I do like the C-Eye Gel and I dearly love the Pro-Heal Serum. I use the Pro-Heal in conjunction with the PolyVitamin Serum (one in the a.m., one at night) and I've seen a remarkable increase in tone, clarity, tiny pores, wrinkle reduction.....I could go on and on. The Pro-Heal has plenty of Vitamin C, along with A & E. The Polyvitamin focuses on the B vitamins. The C-Eye Gel is just a very good basic eye gel and it gives me the Vitamin C I need there. I have really been impressed with most of IS Clinical's products. They actually work! |

Thanks for your opinion... I agree these products work and I have just started within the last week using the Polyvitamin and really like it. Im putting in an order soon and will order atleast one of the others to try.. cant help myself. But atleast you are right, these products do work well.

I think you'll get better results with the Skinceuticals. The addition of the ferulic acid is key. |

You will love it!!! If you are refering to obagi's Vivier vitamin c range I have tried them and whilst I did really like the C20, I much prefer skinceuticals. I think you have made the right choice for overal antioxidant protection. |

I agree with jom. I was not impressed at all with the Obagi C and that one turned color on my fairly quick, while I have not had the happen with the Skinceuticals. |

I have tried vitamin c creams, gels & serums. My favourite serum(s) continue to be Vivier. The Kine-C, C E Kinerol & the IDS High Potency are all effective. There is also a local med spa that has their own line and I like the serum version there as well. The place is called Esteem Medical Esthetics & it's in southwest Ontario. Very good. http://www.esteem.md/ I don't know if they ship but I think that most places do these days.
With the EDS Christmas sale (and any other time) the Vivier is available here at a really good price. |
