I use the Cellularskinrx.com one - the C+ Firming serum. I like it because it does not "turn" and it soaks in quickly, yet it is not drying like some brands. Some here find it too slippery but I like that a little bit goes a long way. Any C will give you that special "C glow" though. It's not indicative of any specific brand but rather just what C serums do for any skin.
I'm in my early 40's, combo/normal skin with olive/yellow undertones. |

janson becketts is a .5 and cellularskinrx is 1.. so how long would either of those last me?
What confuses me is the csrx one is a firming serum and i dont really need that as i'm only 20... haven't come across wrinkles yet... so would janson becketts be better for me?
also my skin is very sensitive i guess cuz i can't exfoliate because i apparently just found out that i am gettin red cappillaries, would a vitamin c make this work?
Will it be very beneficial to me to be using one in the long term? |

I had been using CellularSkin RX for month before Janson-Beckett came out with C&C. For me the difference is unbelievable. JB's has brought an instant glow to my skin. It is not oily and absorbs quickly. Where it is stabilized it it gentler on sensitive skin. CellularSkin did make a difference in my skin tone (sallow at times) but with C&C I keep that nice rosy glow.
I sincerely mean this. Do wait for others to respond.

| My cellularskinrx serum lasts about 8-12 weeks for each bottle. It is not necessarily a "firming" serum except to the extent that C serums all firm the skin through encouragement of collagen synthesis. I'm sure the C&C from JB is good as well. I've just been using this one for so long, I don't have any reason to change. |

You won't need any teaching. If you do not use JB Skin Prep or AlphaDermCE (don't worry that's fine if you don't) apply the C&C after you wash your face and dry. Pat the C&C on. Hopefully 3 or 4 tiny drops will do your whole face and neck. That's is it!!! Some people see an immediate glow. Others it takes a few days. Please exfoliate while you are waiting for your product to arrive.

LoL, i exfoliated my skin too much in the past week that now i'm seeing my capillaries, do you think this product will help thicken my skin again? i guess i just cant exfoliate much with my skin type 
I was so eager to try this product (u know how it is with new products) i just hope they include some samples with my product like EDS does!
Oh hey are some ppl allergic to vitamin c? If i start using the product what kinds of allergic reaction could i possibly have, being new to vitamin c and all?
I'm allergic to citrus thus i cant let oranges touch my lips otherwise il get a cold sore, this wont happen with vitamin c right? |

Be VERY careful !!! Most people who are allergic to citrus fruits are actually allergic to the ascorbic acid and cannot use Vit C serums..... |

 Please only exfoliate you skin very gently Especially because of your broken capillaries. You need to use a very gentle hand and at most once or twice a week. Where the JB is stabilized it is much gentler on the skin. Put a tad under your chin when you get it. Wait 24 hours before using it again. Highly unlikely you will have any reaction but do test. You can also call Janson Beckett to speak with a professional regarding your concerns.

Good luck. I am quite certain you will be fine. JB does not include samples as a rule. They sell their whole AlphaDermaCE line for 19.95 (five day sample of each product). You responded to a thread a day or two ago. EDS was giving them FREE. You just have to pay S&H. If you would like the samples you should check into EDS's offer.
