I have dry skin, and I use the 10% serum from Vivier. I have used it for approx. 3 months, and have found my skin is getting less dry. Whether it's a positive side effect of the serum, or a pure coincidence remains to be investigated, but so far, I'm really satisfied.

I have not tried Vivier to date. Vivier gets wonderful reviews. I have been using Janson-Becketts C&C for quite some time and love it. My skin is more refined and color more even. In my case I will stick with C&C as I use the whole Janson-Beckett skin care routine

Before C&C I used CellularSkinRX. While I liked the product it was a bit too oily for me. C&C is just right and find the results better then the six months I used Cellular SkinRX.

I also love JB C&C and I think it is perfect for my skin type. However, I will try Viver when I am done with this bottle. JB C&C is just a bit too pricy for me Sad

I find the Cellular Skin Rx to have a nice slipperiness about it that may appeal to you. I do not consider it oily at all as it soaks in immediately and then is gone with no residue left behind, etc. I have never had any peeling when using it. I have combo/normal skin. I know Mabsy has said she thinks this one is best for skin on the drier side. They do sell samples at Cellular Skin Rx so you could try it first to make sure, too.

I think CSRx and Vivier would be very good choices - with CSRx having more "slip" than the Vivier. JB C&C in turn having less "slip" than the Vivier (but not drying).

I've used water based (skinceuticals) and CRx (BG based) and despite having really dry skin (well I used to!) found both types good. My skin, like Nemi's has become much less dry to the point that I would now call it 'normal' (whatever that is! Smile )
