I'm intriqued with all the talk about the vit C serums and B5 hydrating gel lately on the forums, so I'd like to incorportate some into my skincare routine. Which serum would be good for sensitive skin that is prone to dryness on the cheeks and somewhat blemish prone in the t-zone? I'm 39, fine wrinkling on the laugh lines beginning to develop, but I'm aging pretty well (so I've been told)...I would just like to keep it that way now that I'm approaching the big 4-OH!!

The most popular brands here seem to be the skinceuticals, vivier and the cellularskinrx products. If your skin is sensitive, you might want to stay in the low end %-wise with C. For instance, start with a 10% concentration and see how your skin responds. However, the skinceuticals 10% has water in it and can be drying. You might have to top with their B5. Or if your skin is okay with glycol solutions (propylene, butylene, etc.), you might want to try the cellularskinrx one - it seems to be not drying at all. The Vivier I haven't used so can't speak to that one. Mabsy uses it though and can give you some insight on that one.

I would highly recommend the Vivier 10% serum. It doesn't feel drying and would be (IMO) a much better choice for dry skin than Skinecuticals or Cellex-C. The CSRx serum has even more slip than the Vivier one so that could also be a good choice.
