I am checking their retinol creams and they look good. For example, this one:
A-Force Nano XR
http://www.seriousskincare.com/the_cart.asp?compid=15&tid=4204
Ingredients: Water, Butylene Glycol, Retinyl Palmitate, PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Xanthan Gum, Cola Acuminata Seed Extract, Chitosan Ascorbate, Ascorbic Acid, Retinol, Camellia Oleifera (Green Tea) Leaf Extract, Polysorbate 20, Polysorbate 80, Glycolic Acid, Hydroxypropyl Guar, Glycerin, Lecithin, Sorbitol, Disodium EDTA, Annatto, Phenoxyethanol, Methylparaben, Butylparaben, Ethylparaben, Propylparaben, Isobutylparaben, Fragrance.
Has anyone had luck with this line? |

| Retinyl palmitate is not the same as retinol. I'd look for a product that stated what % of retinol it contained if that is what you are looking for. Otherwise the product below does look like a nice antioxidant formula. |

GirlieGirl, how are they different in terms of effects on the skin? |

They are both forms of vitamin A but RP is weaker vitamin A combination, therefore less effective. |

I really like the continously clear line- but can't use the sulfur mask anymore.
Their vitamin C sunscreen was one of the few I could use,until I found some mineral sunscreen.
I like their cleansers like vitamin c, the one w the blue label..forget what it is called, and the Continously clear foaming cleanser in the pump.
The shopping channel in Canada sucks now- they barely have any of the items.
HSN has really good kits with a ton of products and they have these "mystery kits" but you actually know what is in them if you read the description and ingredients (lol at "mystery" then haha)
I haven't tried any of their new lines though.
I also used to use their foundation,but haven't lately as I like my pwder mineral makeup.
Their olive oil line has a very strong rosemary and herb smell I find. did not like the eye oil as it was really,well rich.
I also think the places that sell Serious skincare have a return policy.
And from watching the infomercials years ago I remember that Jennifer Flavin Stalone, she is married to Sylvester Stalon who was the star of the Rocky movies.
She loves to talk about that when she was on the shopping channel.
I actually did not watch much tv,but she is obnoxious enough to remember,lol
hope this helps! |
