I just posted this but don't know if it went through so here goes again. If you have oily, dehydrated skin, large pores, uneven skin tone and texture, which two IS clinial products would you recommend?
Thanks in advance, Rae |

| Definitely ProHeal and the active serum! |

| Ditto on the Proheal and Active-no question since that's what has helped me. |

Remind me what ProHeal does. I thought it was for acne so I didn't order it as I haven't had a pimple (besides blackheads) in months. Knocking on wood!  I do use the Active Serum though and am beginning to like it. |

| What about the Super Serum? Is there a reason that nobody has recommended this one? |

I really think the best route is to go to skinterra or to ISC directly and do a skin analysis.
With that said, though, I don't see any reason for Rae to be using ProHeal. I'd recommend the following
AM
Cleanse
Super Serum
HydraCool
Eye product of choice
Sunscreen
PM
Cleanse
Active Serum
HydraCool
Eye product of choice |

| Isn't the proheal supposed to deal with redness? I don't have rosacea but my face is a little on the reddish side. Also, I'm probably getting confused after reading soooooooooo many posts on IS clinical but is the super serum supposed to be heavy or light, for oily or dry skins? Do you think it would work on oily, dry skin? I know this is a ton of questions but I hate to spend so much money on a product and not know if its going to do more damage than good. I wish there was a way to get samples but I tried the skincare institute and IS clinical wasn't there. I have heard so many good things about IS clinical that I can't get my stupid mind off of it until I have the stuff. |

 That's exactly how I am feeling right now!
I have some broken capillaries and a slightly ruddy complexion, and Proheal has been recommended to me (I did the skinterra analysis, and also emailed EDS) to help even this out. I have combination skin which is oily in the T-zone, and Superserum has also been suggested as an alternative for me to try though, so I think it must be ok on oilier skin as well as dry. HTHS. |

| I alternate with Super Serum some days when my skin is drier. Sometimes the proheal can be a tad more drying. The main difference in the 2 is ingredients, such as olive leaf extract and retinol. I always follow with hydracool. |

| My skin is quite oily. No problem at all with the Super Serum. I adore the stuff. |

fifi and razinkane. I too feel exactly the same way I am going to request a sample of the Proheal with my EDS order. I hope they have one!
Regarding Proheal v. Super serum. I have oily, dehydrated, sensitive and acne prone skin. Both EDS and theskincareinstitute recommended Proheal. Skinterra recommended Super serum. I am going with the Proheal recommendations. Both EDS and theskincareinstitute said that Super might be too much for my sensitive skin so if you don't have sensitive skin I don't know what would be best for you.HTH |
