I have a few Holy Grail products but I'm still looking for more improvement.
Without asking for one product to do everything - what are you looking for?
Me -
1. Finally get rid of ALL my sun damage freckles.
2. Tighten pores on my nose.
3. Tighten skin on upper eyelids and jowls (yup, I see the "shadows" of features to come!) |

the fountain of youth 
I can put up with my ongoing breakouts (for the last 25 years, I am 41) and even the large pores, but I want no lines or wrinkles or bags under my eyes, I want to be young forever! |

I'm with Molly -- smooth, tight undereyes.
I lost 30 pounds last year and have found eyesockets that I never knew existed. Between the weight loss and bouts with insomnia, these dark circles (shadows) make me crazy.
So my body's feeling pretty good...my eyes, not so good.
Waddayagonnado??

Oh you're so lucky! How did you lose 30 pounds? I've been trying to lose weight forever, but it's just not happening! |

I'd like to
1. firm up undereyes
2. Keep neck from sagging (just hints at 51)
3. Get rid of pothole pore on nose
4. Eliminate my one line
(in approximately that order
Tosca my hands improved wonderfully with the DDF 12.5% glycolic (used for 2 years). It works even better now that I use a heavy body butter on top (Candy's Shea Butter body butter). My MD is 10 years younger than I and she can't believe my hands given my age. |

Thanks Sharky ... on your recommendation I have bought the DDF lotion. I use it for the
bumps on my upper arm and back and they are improving. I will use it on my hands to replace the Revive hand cream (which is terrific in fading pigmentation ! but $$$ ). |

Great topic, Rjez!
I'm looking to:
-fade the remaining light freckle clusters on my nose/around my eyes
-get rid of my acne scars
-get rid of my blackheads for good
-fade these two dark freckles on each of my cheekbones and the dark freckles on my arms and shoulders
-get rid of my nasolabial lines, under eye smile lines and hand lines
-neck rings
-smooth my rough feet, knee and elbow skin (Dry brushing and the goldbond ultimate healing lotion has worked miracles on the last two so far) |

I'd like to get some fat on the top of my hands, too veiny. Also, what is DDF?
I used the JM age invervention for the hands. Did do well with lightening up the age spots, but then after 2 weeks, top of hands began to burn and broke out in a slight red rash. Any suggestions on another product? |

DDF (doctor's dermalogic formula) is a great skincare brand that EDS happens to offer: http://www.essentialdayspa.com/ddf-doctors-dermologic-formula.htm
Were you using sunscreen with the hand cream? That may be why you had that reaction. It does contain acids, so even if you were to be out for minute in the sun, sunscreen is a must. If you were and you still had that reaction, DDF does have a lot of great alpha-hydroxy moisturizers that will work as well. |

| thanks dealated for your quick response. I tried sending a response thru the "quote" but I can't getting a red message saying I must not use certain objectionable words and I must edit them, but I could not find any offensive words that I had used. So trying just a post reply. Anyway dealated, i only use the JM hand intervention at night not during the day. But shd I use a good hand cream over the JM after application? thanks and i hope this goes thru. |

dealated - what are you using now for freckles? Anyone sort of working? I also have nasolabial lines.
patrice - I just ordered P&R body lotion (copper peptides) so I'll let you know how that goes for my hands. |

Sharky what is DDF, i looked it up on the list of acronyms but cannot find it. The DDF 12.5% glycolic would that be similar to JM's hand intervention which is a lactic acid I understand and that makes my upper hands very rashy and red. And candy's shea butter where can one get that. thanks dani |

Turn back time and start from the beginning again!
Seriously though: 1. improve dark circles and undereye crepeiness
2. fade pigmentation marks and red veins
3. decrease pore size in nose and chin area
4. firm up jawline
If I could get all those taken care of, then I might even have time to look after the rest of my body! |
