i just received the psf vit-c 20% serum and i thought i'd test it on my face first to see if i was ok with it (even tho im not that sensitive to any products).
it had a:
- stinging feel to my skin
- went on really oily and sticky
- smelt of iron. i had a sample of vivier 10 but that smelt nice and fresh!
but then after about 5mins or so, it kinda doesnt feel that stinging, less sticky and the irony smell faded a bit
...is this a normal reaction?
TIA |

What else are you using? The first couple of times I used it I think I stung as well, but then I removed the PSF DMAE from my routine. THEN I noticed that the PSF C didn't sting on my neck (where I ALSO use the PSF DMAE!). This process of deduction leads me to KNOW that my Green Cream just makes my face sooooo much more sensitive to other actives. I don't use the Green Cream on my neck so I know that's what it's got to be.
Without the DMAE on my face the PSF C is just fine. I love, love, LOVE that C!!! |

Yeahyeah ..
Just an aside, one of my bestie's dgd calls her "ya-ya." When I first say your name I thought, "KYM!"!"
Keep it up with the PSF C. I bet within a few days you're loving your glow! |

Compare with vivier 10 and PSF vit C serum, which one do you prefer?
I have got a sample of vivier 10 and am trying it. I didn't allergy to it but it seems to be a little bit oily to me.
Is PSF vit C serum more oily than vivier 10? |

I thought vivier put some fragrace in serum so you feel fresh.
PSF doesn't put any fragrace in their product so the smell is not good. |

hey jn1234, i havent got round to trying the vivier yet as i want to use psf 1st then vivier, so i cant really say which is better. but psf isnt that oily, just a little sticky but nothing too majorly bad about it. will post again once i've used vivier too! |
