Hello y'all,

I've been thinking about making a vitamin C serum. These are the ingredients I have:

- Ascorbic Acid
- Ferulic Acid
- SKB
- Vitamin E
- Matrixyl

Now.. I was thinking... should I add the Matrixyl to my vit C serum, or should I add it to my day-time moisturizer?

My day-time moisturizer is basically jojoba oil, macadamia nut oil and squalene.

Thoughts?

Thanks in advance!

Welcome Josee - personally I would add the Matrixyl to the day-time moisturizer not the c-serum.

Here is a link to the thread with a c-serum recipe on page 3 if you are interested.

Josee, some things are just better left as is.. Vitamin C Serum + Retin-A are at the top of that list!

Just an FYI for you. Rather than starting a new topic for these DIY questions, you will probably get more help if you post in any of the DIY threads..
