| Hi there I am thinking about buying skin signals cream by skin biology and wanted to know from anyone who has used it what results they got. I have previously used the cp serum and lacsal but got terrible uglies so I went down to the ghk serum but felt that was to week.I have been reading that the ss cream is great for firming .I am just scared I get the uglies again.I use retin a at night and vitamin c in morning and my skin is good but I want more for anti aging and firming .Skin signals seems to get reviews on their own sight.Would love your views x |

Why don't you try mixing 1/2 CP serum and 1/2 GHK serum? For example, if it takes 6 drops of CP serum 2x/day to give you the uglies, then try 3 drops mixed with an equal amount of GHK serum 2x/day.
Or you can try using CP in the morning and GHK at night.
I don't have oily skin so can tolerate the creams but find I like the serums better. From what I understand the primary benefit to SS is that is has both. But if it has both then you can probably mix them yourself to pretty good effect.
However, I don't know about any other firming effects the cream might have. This is just speaking as to the effects of the copper peptide products.
I tried SS cream but didn't see any benefit over mixing it myself. I have both CP and GHK serum, and while I don't mix them half and half I do alternate. |

| Hi yubs thanks for your reply. I just checked the ss cream is 7 in strenghth and the cp serum is 3 so its prob not a good idea to start on the ss just now until I build up again as its been well over a year since I used the products .I will maybe even just start with the ghk then slot in the cp and do what you suggest am and pm.I think the success with these products is move slowly as I really think I went to fast last time.Can I ask yubs what results have you seen so far from the cps .X |

Marcia, I've been using CP's for nearly 10 years. My use has been somewhat sporadic, however.
When I use them diligently (daily or 2x daily) for a period of time (say 6 or more months) I see my skin texture imporove and I see some tightening. Hard to say diminishing of wrinkles because I don't have many wrinkles. Maybe because of CP's! 
Seriously, I haven't used them much in the past year and I have also developed some NL folds and the beginnings of jowls. I'm using again, though, so we'll see how they help with that. Although it will be hard to tell because I'm into so much other stuff now, as well.
I've probably repeated this story to the point of nauseam, too, but...my mother had a real bad bout of uglies with CP's that turned out really, really well. Her eyes looked fantastic a few months after she stopped using them, and the effects lasted for years. But the uglies scared her so bad she credited Perricone products with the improvement under her eyes (even though she'd been using Perricone for years previous to CP's and never saw such dramatic effects in short time) and never used CP's again. |

Those say they are AHK CU, not GHK CU. You can buy the GHK at Skin Actives.
ETA - they do have GHK CU, and it looks like a much better price than Skin Actives. Although I would be careful with these. Too strong too soon is a sure way to the uglies.

| Why not use the SS every other day? I've used Skinbiology CPs for years but worked my way up gradually to Skin Signals serum. |
