Hi everyone

I love Skinceuticals products but have a couple of questions...

Does anyone put Serum 10 under their eyes? I have done it a couple of times without any problems as I thought it may help keep the dreaded lines at bay...is this wrong?

Has anyone used their Eye Balm? I have a sample and think it is very nice...

Any recommendations on a Skinceuticals day moisturiser?

I've got a sample of Phyto + - should this be used am and pm? Does it have moisturising properties?

Many thanks

I think phyto+ can be used either day or night or both. I use it with my vit c serums which is recommended for use in the morning. It has some hyaluronic acid w/c is meant to give you some moisturisation but I don't find it's enough for me as vit C serums esp if combined with AHA tends to have a drying effect. I use the B5 gel after phyto+ then my usual moisturiser. HTH Smile

I use CellularSkinRx's C serum (12%)under my eyes and have never had any problem with doing this. I would think their 10% would not be a problem either. I also like using CSRx's Age Limit serum (AHA serum) after my C or at night (as an alternate to Retin-A). I find this is great for making my skin look very smooth, clear and bright.

I have used a 10% vit C serum around the eye area without any problems but so far I have opted to use the Cellex-C vit C eye serum around the eye area anyway. I didn't really like that one so I'm going to go for the Vivier eye serum instead. I do prefer to use a lower concentration around the eye area even though I don't seem to have any problems with the higher concentrations. I'm just worried about drying the area out.
