2 Super Serum ?s

Post by pinkfox » Fri May 28, 2010 7:59 pm

2 questions about my Super Serum:

1. Can I use this in the AM if I use sunscreen?

2. Can this be layered with the C/DMAE serum?

Thanks!

Yes and yes :) I do both, as and when needed. Works wonders.

As far as I know, the only caution with Super Serum is that if you were to use it around the time you use an AHA treatment / toner, there is a possibility that one of the ingredients in Super Serum would react with the acid in AHA and cause your skin to temporarily flush red. I forget which ingredient (gone 1am here, as I write this). Pretty sure the reaction is harmless, just a bit scary looking.

That ingredient is the niacinamide. It reacts with acids and turns to niacin, which is red. Wonder if those with beta-carotene overload would turn orange? :geek:

I use super in morning, and DMAE before bedtime.
So far so good. I'm sticking with it.

Thanks for bringing this up!
I was thinking to layer DMAE with super serum as well. I'm on 2nd bottle of super serum now (and going to 3rd bottle of jojoba moistr) & I'm so happy with the result. My face has been clearer, and brighter. Not sure if it's lighter since i still use the same shade of foundation, but I it's definitely brighter, and not easily oxidized anymore.

Super serum makes me super happy :D Now I'm concentrating on my dark circle and smile lines.

cheers,
