OK, I've searched and searched this forum and the internet, but I'm still not sure how to apply my daily regimen. These are the things I have:
Juice Beauty Green Apple Antioxidant Serum
Retin-a
homemade vitamin c
camellia oil
Relastin Firming Face Cream
Can anyone tell me the order and the time to wait in between applying each? |

Hi Ano!
I would think that your Retin-A would go on first and that your face cream would go on last.
The other 3 would be guesses, but really depend on the ingredients of the products. Whichever penetrates the skin more goes on first so that the next item does not create a barrier for the far reaching ingredients.
Do you really need to put these on all at once? Since the vitamin C and the JB are both antioxidant I would switch between the 2 and put whichever you choose on next and then the oil before the face cream.
Take care.

| Thank you Bosoxy! That makes sense... It's just that I heard so many good things about vitamin c and I already had the Juice Beauty, so I decided to add it. But it makes more sense to alternate. |

anomaly my understanding is that the Juice Beauty antioxidant serum does not have a sufficient amount of Vitamin C to qualify as a true C serum (they won't disclose the amount apparently but it don't think it is signifigant). You need to use C serums everyday to get the most benefits so substituting the JB antiox everyother day will diminish these benefits. That being said I suppose that alternating the serums could be an option until you finish the JB serum.
Here is my suggestion:
A.M.
Vitamin C serum
Wait 15 min.
Relastin Face Cream or JB Serum
Sunscreen (I added this for you since I feel it is vital for you to use this)
P.M.
RetinA
Wait at least 20 min.
Relastin Face Cream or JB Serum
Camellia Oil
I honestly don't know much about Relastin Cream. Is it supposed to be used in the morning, the evening or both? The camellia oil should always be applied last. HTH |
