applying serum

Should we apply on damp face or dry face? Does it matter? I thought the consensus for moisturizers was apply yo damp face but not sure if the same "rule" applies to serums?!

Re: still struggling with my skin...

I am convinced that although it cleared my acne-- the condition of my skin worsened. It was soo dehydrated that it was oily beyond belief to the point of pure em...

serum storage?

Now that serum is my anti-aging holy-grail, I want to make sure I am "doing things right" to make the most of it! Will keeping the vitaminC serum in the fridge keep it "stable" longer? I use 3 pumps 2x/day- not sure how that translates to how long the 1oz bottle will last. How do...

Ready to start a morning serum!

Hello. Well I am an oily/acne-prone 31yr old. I have been using retin-a daily for months and it's time to start something new. I don't have fine-line or wrinkles yet (my skin resembles that of an adolescent). I've been ready of all the benefits of vitamin C and that it tends to work in synergy with ...

Re: Need Foundation Help? Please post here.......

thank you for responding so quickly. I suppose I will start with equal parts and see how that looks? You are right- my skin is soo weird since moving in the florida sun (I'm Latina yet not olive or yellowish). I also got the oil control blur to help my frying pan (I mean face).. :D
