Patience, young grasshopper! Some members are on different time zones so they may not see it until your next day.
To answer your question, I have tried the following:
Reviva Labs Alpha Lipoic Acid Vitamin C Ester & DMAE Night Cream - It was too rich for my face and I broke out in whiteheads. I had to give yet another product to one of my lucky friends who benefit from my loss. 
I have not tried any of the Derma E or Jason products.
Btw, I have combination sensitive skin.
HTH! |

| Yeah, that's what I'm concerned about, these products may make one breakout. Thanks for the posts so far. Need more feedback with the other products. |

esquire,
I used the Jason C serum and I thought it was too sticky. In terms of effectiveness, it was rated pretty high but I spent the extra money for Cellex.
I don't like the DermaE and most of the Jason products. I like some of the Reviva but haven't tried the creams you mentioned. I've tried some of their other creams in the past and haven't purchased any since. For DMAE alpha lipoic acid DMAE health care brands, Skin Eternal has my vote as effective and a good buy. (I like the serum though they do sell a cream.)hth |

Hi, I've used a few products from Reviva. I have used the Alpha Lipoic Night Cream and the Ultra C Day Cream. I found both to be a nice light cream, I can't usually take heavy creams so they must be ok as I havent had any breakouts. I dont know if they have done anything to my skin in terms of anti aging or firming. Im also using the Reviva firming eye cream and this has definately done nothing for me.  I have tried two of their facial washes and they were ok, average. The best product I have used is the vitamin E stick, its great for the lips.
Overall was promised loads by the rep and it didnt deliver. That said, I dont always drink enough water a day, it has been christmas and I have over indulged a little.  On feed back on this forum, Ive opted to switch to the Alphaderma range, so Im hoping for some improvement, especially as its so expensive for 3 products!!!! Im a serial product tester and am well known to never get to the bottom of the jar.
I'll keep you posted re the Alphaderma C. Have you tried these products or are you formulating people's advice before you splash out. I even went the whole hog and bought Alpha Lipoic Capsules and C Ester Tablets along with Salmon to name a few. I took them religiously for 2 weeks, and now the bottles are standing collecting dust. Note to myself: tkae all vitamins and spplements EVERY day  |

| Thx for your reply. I was just curious on how effective the products are and if they cause problems on some. I just happen to be shopping at drugstore.com and they were selling the facial products above. I thought they were cheap enough so maybe I should try them, and also to complete my free shipping (if you buy $49 worth of items). |

They certainly are a lot cheaper than the Janson Beckett products, and Winnie advised they are part of the same group. However JBs products are a little bit stronger I think, maybe Winnie will correct me, so I guess it depends on what you want in terms of results. Skin wise, Im ok, not too many wrinkles for 38  I just have tired eyes syndrome all the time so when I get one new eye product, I'm compelled to try the range, so when the eye product doesnt work, as is normally the case, I can sit back and tell myself how much money I've wasted, AGAIN  I rarely get to the bottom of any jar!!!! |

I bought the Jason Hyper C serum, and my face turned oil-slicked. I could almost see my reflection in it. How does your aunt deal with the greasy look? Did she put powder over it? |

| I bought Jason Ester-C Creme and just couldn't stand its overpowering fragrance. And I agree the texture is a bit on the heavy side too. |

I'm currently using Derma-E Age Defying Day Cream, Night Cream, and Eye Cream. All 3 creams are rich enough for my combination towards dry skin. I think it'll be too rich if you have oily skin.
I've been using them for almost 2 months. I don't know if I see any big improvement. But my skin condition is better than when I use EXPENSIVE skin care products. |

I also bought the Jason Ester-C Cream, too. I remember reading about someone on EDS using it and was happy with it. So I ordered that along with the Hyper C from Vitacost. I don't mind the scent and this one while heavy doesn't leave my face oil-slick. I can actually wear it in the morning. For night time, I am trying Jason New Cell Therapy. I have given up on the Hyper C. I didn't like the grease on my face. |

I am just finishing my second bottle of 'Jason Hyper C Serum',it is very sticky and heavy. I have been adding a few drops of Seakelp Biofermnant or Beta Glucans,or whatever is handy to thin it.
I dont think I will repurchase.
I havent really seen much improvement.
I am saving my pennies for Vit C from PSF,or JB.
My DIY doesnt really turn out less expensive and not very effective. |
