Ha I posted about Kari Gran right after you did! Agree it’s probably really good for senior or very dry skin, l tried a serum + balm combo in the dead of winter and it was way too much for me. But I’m loving the balm for my knees and elbows etc. The vitamin C felt nice but I’m giving skinceuticals a whirl this time around. I love the way the peptide serum smells!


They are really nice products and they focus on doing just a few things, well. Also I was surprised when I emailed support a question and got a reply from Kari herself!

I’ve used the Skinceutical vitamin C, and the Amazon version is just as good if not better. The reviews are real.


There is NO way this one is a dupe - if it is, then don’t believe the hype re: skinceuticals b/c I have used this TruSkin vit C and it does nothing for my skin and feels tacky after applying (not just immed after, but for a while after).


It’s not I have tried it. It seems to do OK but I think the shelf life is a lot less. When I switch back to SkinCeuticals after I was like damn I guess I was missing out!

My question is... can you use the vitamin c and moisturizer in the summer? Or is this routine something you do during the winter when you don't go outside alot and should I wait til next winter to start this vitamin c/moisturizer regmen?




You can use it during the summer. Your skin may need a different moisturizer in the summer and winter, depending on how dry/sensitive it gets.


Thank you for the reply!



Just adding on that, your serum always goes first then thicker ingredients. So if you use a vitamin C and HA and moisturizer, it would go on in the order from thin to thickest so vitamin C, HA, moisturizer then your sunscreen. Let each soak in a few minutes in between. I usually floss then do vitamin C and while that’s drying, I brush my teeth.

I've been getting compliments on my ski since I started using snail mucin. I'm 51 and when I went to urgent care for a sinus infection last month the doctor out of the blue (but I think after he looked at my birth date to out in a prescription) told me I have really good skin!

Vitamin C serum is just too easy to make yourself.


There are things I like making for myself - bread, decisions - but I feel good about paying for skincare that works for my fussy skin.
