Serum Layering

Hello all!

I am new to SN over the last couple of weeks and I have already placed 3 orders. Does someone know where to sign up for the 12 step program? ;)

I love the skin care, but am not sure about applying the serums. I have my sample of the Vitamin C peptide and the full size of the green tea & aloe. If I layer them do I need to make sure the first layer is dry before applying the second layer? Can they be mixed together?

I tend to use the GT & A at night since I use the BHA toner every other night. In the morning I love the way the Vitamin C makes my skin glow, but I feel like I need a little extra moisture because I will get oily otherwise. So far the Hemp moisturizer is working well and I have a sample of the Raspberry that I still need to try.

Thanks for your help!

Hmm, I also apply the GT serum over my Facelift/ Super Serums and before moisturiser.

I do wait for each layer to dry and soak in a bit before applying the next. But I'm not sure if that's "de rigeur".
Love the GT serum, great stuff :) and so cooling on the face after application too!

I think allowing a short amount of time to sink in is enough. You don't need to be dry between layers, but being mostly dry will help in the more even distribution of the second layer.
