I am going back to 2 - 3 particular items that I had used and Loved from Cellbone...Super AOX, Collagen Anti Aging Serum, and Possibly Hyper Peptides serum.

I am now thinking about using their C serums, but not sure which one, or if any at all. I can say that I Love the way CE Ferulic from Skinceuticals makes my skin feel and look.. It gives it a Firmness, and a glow, but the $$$$ is too much. I tried the DIY thing, and it's just not as good for me personally, as it is for so many others.

Anyone Love or used C23 or C27 or even Glycolic C?

Thanks - My nearly 49 yr old skin is grateful for any replies....

Cellbone has some good products but they arent all good. They use bad ingredients like aloe vera in a product to be used in the daytime, and we know that aloe causes cell damage in the presence of UV light.

This is the ingreds list for their C23 serum:

Ingredients:
Water, L-Ascorbic Acid, Dimethyl Isosorbide, Propylenglycol, Glycerin, Phenoxyethanol, Zinc Sulfate, Bioflavonoides, Sodium Hyaluronate, Centella Asiatica, Marine Collagen, Idebenone, Menthol

Dimethyl isosorbide and propylene glycol are penetration enhancers and solvents, none of which is actually necessary. There are natural penetration enhancers that would actually be good for the skin and not harmful in the long run.

Idebenone is irritating to some ppl and I wouldnt use it in an LAA serum which in itself can be irritating. Huge potential for inflammation if its used at a therapeutic %. Since its near the end of the list it may not even be therapeutic in this formula. It appears to be less than 0.5% here. It looks like a mishmash of ingredients.
