Can anyone tell me how it compares to Skinceuticals CE Ferulic. The price difference is huge but not worth it if not as spectacular as Skinceuticals.

I was a loyal Skinceuticals user until the price just became too prohibitive. The ingredients & percentages are identical...now, I can't say they are absolutely identical as likely there is a difference somewhere, but I don't know-or haven't read-what that might be. I've been using this product now for several years & don't have any complaints at all

I read somewhere that skinceuticals has a patent on the pH of their active L-ascorbic acid. The patented pH is 2.5-3.0, and so this serum has a pH in between 3.0-3.5 to prevent patent violations. According to the article, this means that the product with the higher pH will be slightly less exfoliating.info from https://www.futurederm.com/2012/02/15/are-other-vitamin-ce-serums-as-effective-as-skinceuticals-ce-ferulic-cosmetics-solutions-timeless-skinmedica/

I use a lot of Skinceuticals products, but the serum recommendation I got from a website that highly recommended it, I love it and it works great with my other products from Skinceuticals: the Retinol cream and the day moisturizer. The price was good too.

Well my sister and myself are using both this product in conjunction with the B5 gel. First use serum let it absorb the n the gel. Both these companies seem to have the same ingrediants. I just purchased another serum from Delfogo RX and that bottle contains 22% C 8% Ferulic and 2% E. SO I will check this one out as well. Highly respected company as well. I always go online and do my research. Good luck!!

Good question, I'm not really sure. You could always contact the company and ask them to clarify. I have noticed a difference in my skin, I will continue to use this product and probably repurchase when necessary. It is not nearly as expensive as some other products on the market.

This is NOT the "Intensive" Enjoy Hair & Skin Treatment Oil. The "Intensive" bottle has a red star on it. If you prefer the "Intensive treatment" this is not the one for you; however, if you have not tried it...please do! I have used both and find this one to be just as good. Hopefully this helped even though the reply came a little late. Good luck:)

I did not and would not pay $90 for Complex 15 (although it was pretty good). I paid $10.49 for it when I purchased it last year. That being said, the other moisturizer my dermatologist recommended many years ago is PURPOSE. They also have a lovely glycerin soap that does not irritate. Good luck!!!

i just started using the c serum recently, so not enough time to really say. i have been using the hyaluronic serum for awhile and love it. i do think my spots are lighter and overall skin texture is better. i also love the way it feels.

I began using this product this year. I met one of the sales reps for the line and got a brochure and read about it. Although I have used other products by this brand, this is one of my favorite. It really helps to brighten the complexion and make the skin more even toned...probably because it is vitamin c. It is hard to say whether or not you would like this product and would depend on what you are trying to achieve. Other brands I've used are bit more pricey, but I think this one works just as well for what I am looking for. I hope this helps... good luck.

Good question and here's my honest opinion. I bought both and faithfully used both for at least a month, if not 2. I did not notice a difference until I stopped using the serum. The cream was incredible and still gives me some extra skin love. I've read serums are intended provide relief deep in the various layers of skin while the cream provides the best parts of the serum in an emollient the provides nocturnal nourishment go our precious facea.

Good Housekeeping ran a study on face creams sometime last year. It recommended this as the cream that had the best results after several months of testing--if one could afford it. Other less expensive creams had recommendations but we're not viewed as having such positive effec

I love Envy Tan! Its priced well too. Plus they have a sampler kit you can try before you buy the big bottles of the solutions. They also have some great additive solutions. AND if your a licensed cosmetologist you can get like 20% off your orders!!!

Hi Jim, I would love to help but this is a very expensive product and you need to know which one is for your skin. I don't wanna say its fine and them it's not yr skin type.One thing I can say, once you got your skin type it's a wonderful product.

I found EMERITA to be a life-saver for me. Another cream that works well for me is Activin, that is if you are looking for something to replace or use instead of EMERITA. Does this answer your question?

I have used MD Forte first and switched to Vivite because my dermatologist did. To me they are about the same, both good products.

I agree with dbl00--apply after washing skin to bare skin. I have used this combo for years and while I do think the product is a little harsher than the far more expensive version that Skinceuticals has to offer, it still works quite well. When I first learned of this product, it was from a licensed esthetician employed at the W Hotel in SF, CA. She explained to me that this combination of Vit C, E & Ferulic provides an bit sun protection. I never understood how this is possible, but do seem to feel that it is true when applied correctly.

I thought there was Collagen in it whatever they use is awesome, I just bought another jar yesterday. I went to my family's Christmas Eve party & my Aunt asked me what I'm using on my face because my skin looks do good. Made me feel great I'm 55 yrs old & never have to wear any cake like product to make my face look decent, try it works great!

I did not find that it helped with much at all. If it did it was only maybe a little bit. In saying this, everyone responds differently to things. The only thing that has helped me tremendously was the product "Feminene" but I cannot find it anymore. However I know what the ingredients are and are supplementing according to what I need. I wish you luck. I would recommend giving the product a try. You never know, it could be exactly what works for you.

Ok, so I answered your question. I do know that my horizontal lines in my neck has almost disappeared. I am primarily using the Vit. C toner, and the Ageless Serum. I do love the smell and I have very oily skin. I feel some of these products overlap each other. I have, but have not been using the Face Whisperer Day and Night creams because the I the Ageless Serum is doing a good job. Let me know what you think. Thank, Tricia

I also find the serum to be authentic. I think the pricing in malls is very high, but pricing online seems fairly consistent. I only buy online now.JW
