Please help! I'm 34, fair skin...just started using Retin-A again. I look younger than 34 (or least I'm told), but I am concerned about crows feet, laugh lines and that furrow between my brows. With so many products...what do I choose. I'm fine witha cleanser...what about Vit-C and HA and idebenone and a great eyecream? Any DIY recipes for HA...or combine something with idebenone? I saw the DIY for Vit-C serum. All advice is greatly appreciated!!!!! Oh! I am on hormones trying to get pregnant..so my skin is a little menopausal. Thanks! |

For Vitamin C, I highly recommend Cellex-C High Potency Serum. |

Bex, if you try to get pregnant, you have to stop using retin A because it has teratogenic effect and contraindicated in pregnancy.
What is your skin type? Is it oily or dry? If your skin is on the oily side, you can try Cellex-C or skinceuticals vitC. If it's dry, it's better to go with PSF or JB C&C. Anyway, get the samples first.
HA you can DIY or buy from PSF, it's only $19 for the bottle that will last you for a long time. Also, I can recommed you cucumber HA from Garden of wisdom; it's wonderful, and costs around $10 for 2oz. It's better to use HA with emu or some other oils that suit your skin type.

I have tried all the C serums out there and I think the best one is the Vivier KinC! |

Have you tried ISC Super Serum or Pro Heal or SkinCeuticals C E Feurlic? How do these compare? |
