I previously tried my own diy and it made my skin worst.

I was wondering what brand of vitamin c serum are you using?

Thanks

I am using Mad Hippie. It is fairly inexpensive and I like the feel of it on my skin.

forever young uk's active solutions c serum. Cheap and easier than DIY. I tried DIY but wasn't very good at keeping the formulations consistent so the % and pH were all over the place.

Hi Salome! I like it. I have been using it for over a year and I don't want to be without it. My skin has become brighter more radiant and I believe it has helped with acne breakouts as well. It is very liquid (like water), and you use a dropper to pour a few drops into the palm of your hand, rub your hands together and then pat it all over your face (similar to how men apply aftershave).
I keep it in the refrigerator just to be sure it stays fresh.

I think this one http://nufountain-fresh-cosmetics.amazonwebstore.com/NuFountain-Fresh-Cosmetics-CelSignal-Support-Vitamin/M/B0038AA4S2.htm might work well for you. I have read that B5 helps increase hydration in the skin and I remember you mentioning your skin was dry.

DIY but not every day as it tends to make my skin ruddy looking with everyday use.

I second Mad Hippie. Can't remember the brands I've tried but this one puts an impression on me. Feels good on skin and helps with my breakouts too. And price pretty reasonable.

After many years, STILL using PHyto C (or the original IS Clinical version)of Proheal. Great for oily or dry skin and it really does work for me. I have skipped months without it and my skin shows the abuse, so now I use it daily and faithfully.
