What are the directions? Does this go on AFTER a serum? can you use it day and night?

I use the reparative cream at night and the serum during the day. I apply the serum before I put on foundation. This routine helps immensely in keeping my skin hydrated, smooth, and bright.

I believe serums are always supposed to go on freshly cleansed skin before any moisturizers. Serums are able to penetrate deeper than creams. If you put the cream on first the serum will not be as effective as the cream will act almost like a barrier.As one person commented, I will often use the serum on its own in the daytime, especially in the hot summer weather.

I buy it for my mom. She uses it before the serum morning and night. She absolutely loves it.

I would not recommend to use for so few hours. I had use it for 3 months 24h/day. In your case I recommend the Diminishing Serum, instead of the sheets.

I am not a nurse nor doctor. I worked for a plastic surgeon for years. I use it every day. Nothing works overnight, but don't give up. It does help you vertical lips. you must be dedicated to cleaning your skin. Give it time. You might peel and or get red. Just use a little the bottle will last you a long time. Only use it at night under you night cream. Remember sunblock, sunblock every day even in the winter, even if you don't go outside. Repeat sunblock every two hours. Good Luck

Hi BrianTo start with, I applied it for 2 nights in a row after a shower. After that, I only apply it every 3 to 4 days. It worked best on my arms and legs and a little less on my face. I e-mailed Dave and asked him if there was a reason. and he said that everyone is different and he suggested that I try his product called "Small Batch". It's for med to dark. I tried it and love it! Works so much better then the "Moisture Tan" although that one is good also. Highly recommend both products! Well worth the price! Thanx for asking! Good luck!

You can use at night before going to sleep then again in the morning for a glamorous flawless look then again to remove makeup, so about 2 to 3 times a day

I would not use this cream at all, day or night. After 5 days of use, I broke out into a bad rash and am still dealing with trying to heal my face back to normal and it's been over 10 days! Some people can use the cream with no bad results but I don't think it's worth taking a chance on it.

I apply it directly to my face after cleansing and using an astringent. I leave it on and use morning and night.

As this is a Vitamin C serum, thereby an anti-aging treatment, I would recommend using it twice a day. I use it both in the morning and at night, just after my toner but before my final facial cream.

Depending on your skin type, i don't know why you couldn't use it day and night. I use it only at night even though it say "daily" on the label because I don't like how it interacts with my other daytime makeup. I only use fragrance-free products and don't know if there is a fragrance-free night cream version by Olay, but you can certainly check out the other products in the line if you want specifically a night cream. In regards to the reply left by "So many books, so little time," I am confused because this product does not contain a sunless tanner. But I tend to use the Total Effects/Daily only every other or 3rd night anyway because I am prone to breakouts if I use any lotions every day.

I use it for both, it does not contain sunscreen and the directions say to apply day or night after cleansing

I use it under your spf day/night cream, try not to use it with AHA's. I would alternate the days you use both.

I used it at night. But yes you can. I didn't have any reactions. But I didn't like the results. Especially for the price.

Use only in the morning as your moisturizer. The daylight activates it. Use something else at night, according to my dermatologist.

Yes, you should use day and night. Or in your case, at night only. Moisturize first, always.

I use this product at night usually every other night. The night I don't use it I use Cerave PM moisturizer. It does make my skin smooth and soft.

I use the serum at night and after that dries, I use Reviva Lab's Elastin & DMAE Night Cream as my moisturizer. I suppose you could use a Retinol Cream with it, I just haven't. Just experiment like I do.

Wash face. Tone Face. Apply Vit. C Serum. Apply Moisturizer. Leave on all day. Repeat at night. Never had this burn my face. Use only a couple of drops on face, a couple on neck, a couple of drops on hands.
