can I blend the serum immediately with my moisturizer since the serum has a high concentration of argireline? I

allow the argireline serum to penetrate and then apply your moisturizer. I don't use this product anymore but when I did I waited about 15 minutes before applying my moisturizer. Hope this helps. (PS I switched to Cellex C serum & hydration complex, both professional formula. They are amazing!)

I would use it under your moisturizer. The argireline absorbs into the skin immediately.

I don't know but my guess is "NO", (only a guess) because you would think that the serum would dilute the firming cream. My best suggestion is to ask the company which produces them. I would never dilute a firming cream since you want as much firming as possible, but again, its best to ask the company. Hope this is helpful.

Yes, I mix it with my current moisturizer in my hands then apply and wash my hands thoroughly

Hello. Thank you for your question on our new formula; Swiss Ultimate Daytime Therapy. This new formula is specifically for daytime use, or whenever you need an "immediate" reduction in wrinkles under your eyes. It contains special wrinkle-smoothing ingredients (including hydrolyzed collagen) that our regular formula does not have. We guarantee this will lead to a rapid reduction (within minutes) in the appearance of fine wrinkles under your eyes. For night-time use, we continue to recommend our classic formula; "Swiss Ultimate Serum with Argireline + Ilomastat," (also available on Amazon) because for night-time what's more important is reducing the underlying *causes* of wrinkles themselves (rather than their appearance). To summarize; Daytime Therapy gives you wrinkle-appearance reduction within minutes, our "classic" Swiss Ultimate formula takes longer and is more suitable for long-term wrinkle-appearance reduction and preventing new wrinkles from forming at night. A number of our valued customers combine the use of both formulas; applying our "Daytime Therapy" formula, as directed, in the morning, and our regular formula at night. Please don't hesitate to contact us at Swiss Ultimate Labs if you have any further queries or concerns. Kind regards, Roger at Swiss-Ultimate

I have oily skin, so I use the serum morning and night. But, the firming cream before bed. You should be able to use them both together. Depending on how much moisturizing you need.

I put this on first, and then add moisturizer if I need it. It is pretty moisturizing on its own, but you may need more depending on your skin type, and seasonal factors. I don't see why you couldn't use your serums under it. Also, don't use it on your face every day, as the application area should be rotated for absorption reasons I am not going to go into. :-)

I use only the serum...often together with Retinol Complex ...they work well together; quite powerfully.

You have to shake it a lot as well as wait patiently. I have also set aside a cup and blade from my Magic Bullet just for mixing serums. As far as I know you cannot get it mixed quickly. I start with the ascorbic acid and water and then gather the other ingredients, etc. Good luck.

Yes, this is a clear serum, you will need a moisturizer... My regime is #1 Hyaluronic Acid(HA) peptide serum. #2 Watts Retinol2.5% Max" w/green tea, this one is in a light lotion ( Retinol can be drying). # 3 is my moisturizer it is from Swanson Vitamins "Wrinkle Cream w/ DMAE & CoQ10" ($8.99 2oz) ..would not skip any of these 3 steps. This is what works for my skin. I am 61 & people guess my age early 40's.. I have been on this specific skin regime @ 4 years & my friends that have known me for years, tell me I look younger than I did 10 years ago & keep asking if I haven't had "some work" done.. which I have not.. I also take a lot of vitamins, amino acids & enzymes daily.. for example: I take glucosamine, Hyaluronic Acid, A-C-E internaly. These same ingrediants are used in some of the best (& most expensive) anti-aging products... So I feel my skin is the result of what I have been doing both internaly & topicaly.. Now at my age, I am seeing my investment pay up!

I actually called their customer support because I wanted to use the Clarins Radiance Plus-Golden Glow Booster face-tanning product, which you mix with a moisturizer. They said to use serum first then apply moisturizer with Glow Booster after. It works great. I apply both at night after I cleanse and exfoliate with Clairsonic and again in the morning after I (just) rinse my face. I have a very nice natural golden glow and dewy skin. BTW-I have dry skin. The Clarins Double Serum is moisturizing so if you have oily skin you may not want to use an additional moisturizer or use an oil free moisturizer.

Yes, it will work gradually (slowly) with this OTC, gentle, Obagi Nu-Derm Blend Fx (step 5) - Non-Hydroquinone, Arbutin Formulated. It may take as long as 3 months to see result with daily application.

You must mix this with your normal moisturizer. Instructions say not to use alone. It does not make my face any dryer but I notice more of an improvement in overall texture.

You should wait a minimum of 20 minutes after applying any retinol serum, before applying moisturizer.

You can use both serums. The anti aging serum contains exfoliants that I find are too harsh. This is just very moisturizing

I always follow with a moisturizer after a few minutes. Otherwise I find this too drying. If you use a serum, you can use the serum in the morning and the retinol before bed.

Yes, definitely, but as a side note... I just started using the Super Smooth Elixir they sent as a sample and I think I like it better... it makes my hair smoother than the relaxing serum. My hair is wavy and a mess if left to dry naturally.

Thank you...was having a mini meltdown. Sadly I didn't think I'd have this reaction and didn't plan for this appearance. I did a 30% glycolic peel a few weeks ago and there was no one minute of downtime. It just made me glow. Do you think it's better to let it get very dry so it will maybe peel faster or reapply my moisturizer to keep it hydrated? I look so crazy and have to work on Rodeo Dr. tomorrow. :(
