Hi
Has anyone tried the newly reformulated C Serum from Skincarecentral
http://www.skincarecentral.biz/skincare-anti-oxidants.html
Ive just ordered a sample and was wondering if anyone else has tried it yet?
I want to try a gentler non acidic vitamin c again .
Thanks  |

So i got my sample and the texture of it gets the thumbs up from me It dries matte/non drying,non oily. It kind of feels like you've applied nothing really. My skin feels nice and smooth after.
Cant say yet what it actually does for my skin as Ive only used it twice.
I had a couple of quick questions if anyone can help
1. Do you still have to wait 20 min before applying moisturiser with these types of C serums?
2. Is it ok to use when you're using retin a a few times a week? Seeing as its so gentle and non acidic.
Thanks |

| Carol - please keep us updated on this product and what it does for your skin. I have been eyeing this for a while ever since Molly mentioned it a while ago. It sounds like a great product! |

Carol, if you are using the Triple C from Skincarecentral, it is neutral ph, so you do not need to wait 20 minutes before applying moisturizer. Just wait a few minutes until it is fully absorbed.
There is no reason you can't use the vitamin c while using Retin-A unless your skin is sensitive and you find one or both of them to be irritating.
I use tretinoin every night and a low-ph ascorbic acid c serum (PSF) every morning and do not experience any irritation, but I do not have sensitive skin.

Thanks. I will definately report back on what it does for my skin
I know ive already said it but the texture's great! And its so gentle. Ive tried on and off with different L ascorbic acid products but they just irritated my skin and they'd feel drying,sticky etc.
So I was excited to find this one. I dont care if its not as effective as L ascorbic acid with increasing collagen, I just wanted the antioxidant benefits. |

| I really like this triple c serum. i am currently using devita's c serum (which stings too much) but am planning to go ahead and repurchase this from skincarecentral since i really liked it. |
