I'm using a sample of the vit c serum 10 and like it. I'm planning to buy a full size (unless the diy-ers convince me otherwise -- i posted a topic on that -- please check it out if you have an opinion to share Smile ).

I would appreciate some advice on how to decide if the vit c serum 20 might be a better choice for me? Or the kine-c?

If you have experiences with any of the vivier c serums, would appreciate hearing your experiences.

If you have used a vit C serum before and didn't have any problems then I'd go straight to the 20%. Otherwise, start with the 10% just in case. I am having similar issues in deciding between the 20% and the KineC (which I believe is 10%). The KineC is supposed to have additional firming ingredients so it's a matter of deciding whether this is more important than an increased does of vit C. Tough choice!

Thanks, Mabsy -- that's good advice. I delayed purchasing because i wasn't sure which one to buy and also read a post that reminded me that the PG in it might be a problem. Then last night, after applying the Vit C 10, I had an asthma attack and i think it may be related (just posted a topic on that).

So I think I may need to go the DIY route...

Yes, the KineC is 10%C.

Maybe you can ask them for help in choosing Smile

If you call, would you let us know what they advise?
