| I've been using Green Cream at night, and I am really liking it. I'd like to start using it sometimes in the morning too, but can I use it at the same time as my Janson Beckett products? I'm getting good results from these and don't want to miss apps on the days when I would use green cream. |

| Bump. Anyone have any thoughts on this at all? I emailed JB, but no answer yet. |

Hi Tosca
I don't see a conflict, but you should apply the GC first and wait 30 mins or so for it to convert in the skin to retin A and then apply the other stuff.
I saw on the Vivant website that they said don't apply Vit C and Vit A at the same time, but I never saw any conflict between the two anywhere else in my forum life. Maybe it's just the interference before conversion that they're worried about.
There's a lot of layering goes on over on the skincareboard after GC - take a peek.

Thanks so much, Molly. I'll give it a try. I've read through some of the GC threads but I still have a ton more to go.
Ninetynine, you can get it at cosmeticville.com. They have good prices, but only carry the 3 & 6. Another company is Lindasy.com. They also have the level 9. You can also buy samples from both places. |

You can check with the Green Cream community forum boards. The president is very often online.
In my personal opinion I would not use a retinol type product during the day as it does increase sun sensitivity. I am assuming you are using a good sunscreen daily on a regular basis.
You can also try contacting Linda Sy (a distributor of Green Cream). I have purchased from them before and they are good about answering emails. |

Make sure you buy the samples first. I purchased the level 3 and 6 samples and boy I'm glad I did!
I won't go into negatives as to discourage anyone from trying it...but it did not work for me. So I wasn't out that much money. After all the products I've tried I'm really all about samples now FIRST...buy product later, if possible! |

That's true, ninteynine. I would try the samples first. I think both the sites I told you about sell samples for a few bucks.
Autumn, I will try that. I've been to the GC board, but I didn't post. I should definitely contact Linda Sy, since that's where I bought it anyway.
I am using a sunscreen, although I can't find one I love. Maybe you're right about using it during the day. I just have this compulsion to use anything I like at any possible moment. Dumb, I know. |
