Hello.. Just wondering what age is a good age to start using Vitamin C serums? I read somewhere that you should start at 30. Are there any known side effects from using it? Thanks in advance Smile

I'm 25 and use it...it's a great preventative!!

Only side effect I've had is slight drying, but that's good since i'm normally oily!!

I'm 34 and only started using one full-time last year. But I wish I had started using it 10 years ago!

I started when I was around 25 I think. Had I known about it earlier I would have started earlier though....

my skin is dry and sensitive... since serums make your skin dry will normal creams be okay to offset the dryness? any suggestions on which serums to use then? Thanks Smile

koyie - in your case I would stay away from the regular formulations by Cellex-C and Skinceuticals and go for Vivier or CellularSkinCareRX instead. If your skin is really sensitive though then you'd need to start with a very low concentration (I think Vivier has one for sensitive skin specifically).

Hi Mabsy,

I'm thinking of getting the Vivier serum.. is EDS the best place to get it in terms of price? Thanks

Hi Koyie! EDS has **great** Vivier prices -- There's a medical spa in my neighbourhood (I'm in Canada) and they carry the Vivier line....and everything is at least $10 more! I was shocked to learn that the Vivier TMR is only $75 at EDS! $15 LESS than if I buy directly from the spa around the corner! AND - at one of the spas downtown - the Dermalogica kits are **$21.00** more than if you buy them at EDS!

EDS is where I get mine from but it's been quite some time since I searched for price comparisons. I now just buy from EDS because I've always had good experiences here and because they are overall cheaper than other places.
