Hi everyone
I'm new here but have been searching this site for awhile now. I need advice on a regime. I"m 42 was a sun bather for years but haven't for 4 yrs now. I have combo skin with some breakouts and have fine lines apperaing above upper lip and upper cheeks and crows feet that I'm trying to reduce but perfer to get rid of all together. I have tried the alphaderma c and it just didn't do anything for me. Right now I use Dr hauska's cream cleanser than relax a line. I have dmae lotion that I use on top of that. I was using copper peptides from skin biology but just started using the Is clinical about a week and a half ago. I ordered the active serum. I was wondering what else you would suggest that I could use to improve my skin and also how long has it taken those of you who have started to use the Is clincal serum to start seeing results?
thanks for any advice you can give me.

How long did you use the copper peps for? I've been on them for about 6 months, and I really think they have made a difference. I would also recommend using a C serum to help repair the damage as well as a mild glycolic acid lotion (I love cellular skin's age limit). I don't know how you would fit a C serum in with the IS clinical though, as I am not familiar with it.

I used the copper peps for about 4 months. The Is Clinical active serum says it has 8% glycolic in it also 2% salicylic,2% lactic and 0.5% kojic in it. I was wondering with you saying that you use the copper peps for 6 months what improvement have you seen. I really haven't noticed a change. Are you using the super cop? Istarted out low and was using the super cop the 4th month. I have just started last week using a glycolic at home peel and wondering if that would help. Do you think using the copper peps in the am would be alright an than in the pm the active serum with vitamin c on top would be okay?

Copper peptides and vit C do not mix well. They work best at different pH and the CP activity might be harmed.

I use vit c in the morning and if I use CP I use at night. I mostly use it as a soothing/healing serum after I neutralize a glycolic acid peel.

I would use the supercop in the PM after the Active serum/hydracool...and use the C serum/hydracool in the morning.
