hi

Im using th alphaderma and okusil twice daily at the moment. i have not been using anything else with this as yet as i am trying to see what results i get with these. I have rather crepey lines under my eye, crows feet, frown lines and lines around my lips. im also noticing sagginess starting in my eyelids and around my mouth. seem to be in a very bad way. can anybody suggest anything else to one, help diminish wrinkles and secondly to help firm my skin.

do you think i should be using a moisturiser over the okusil

kindest regards

sally

Sounds like you should use something over the okusil, to get rid of that crepiness. I am liking Babor Sensationals eyecream at the moment. It is light, but hydrating. For firming, you could look into the IS Clinical firming cream. That seems to be getting some good reviews, and some are using it with the ADCE too. Smile The IS Clinical eyecream might be a good option for you as well.

For me personally I have never used a product that has the firming ability of AlphaDermaCE. You know that you can also use a moisturizer of your choice over it. Rather then Okusil around your eyes, try patting the ADCE around the eye bone area and top it off with a moisturizer of your choice. I highly recommend the JB Mineral Prep under AlphaDermaCE.

I also use the IS Clinical Firming Complex. For me ADCE and IS do two different things. The ISC has refined my skin texture. It has closed any open pores. By using the Firming Complex I am exfoliating everyday without using a harsh product with grains in it. I use the ISC at night with ADCE over it. BTW: The IS Clincal Eye Complex is lovely. I am still on my sample size.

I really like the C&C serum included the AD regime...I use it under my eyes too... also try using ADCE under your eyes over the okusil Very Happy

Gosh ladies, it never fails. All these skin care products and they all end up drying up skins. Salster, get on with something that will PUT moisture back into your skin. This is the key to youth!
Try the Elizabeth Grant products. I think you can purchase on your shopping channel.

Hi Sally
Okusil is hyalauric acid (sp?) based. This is a humectant, which means is sucks moisture into itself. If there's no moisture in your skin it appears drying.

I usually baste my eye area with either emu or avocado oil at night - use what seems far too much of it. This really soaks into the skin overnight and then in the morning use the Okusil and/or Alphaderma PLUS a light eye area moisturiser over the top (I'm using Cellcosmet, but it's pricey).

If I go travelling or whatever and leave the overnight emu/avocado routine after a few days it's very telling.

This is a very good tip Molly. I'll try this evening. I have a bottle of emu oil and the Okusil which I haven't used much because its too drying for my eye area. Thanks!
