Hi beautiful Melissa❤ I agree you have to find what works for you! I’ve used timeless vitamin c for years and love it. Melissa what do you use on your neck when you work on it to get it red for the wrinkles lol? I remember in a video but not sure how you did it ❤❤❤ oh also for obagi they sell it on skin beautiful RX this week they have it 28% off ❤❤❤

Oh thank you for the heads up on the Skin Beautiful. I trust that company, too and they will have good deals. I will make little changes to my neck and here's the thing: I never ever switch things around. So my skin is used to what I use. So if I make a slight change it will react and peel. My skin does its best and performs its best when it has occasional peeling. So I will change something on my neck: Usually it's adding the Obagi Exfoderm Forte for a few days. Now I can't use it full time, as it's strong acids and makes my skin too irritated. But if I use it for just a bit I will get a peel and and then I can go back to my regular one. Sometimes I can just switch my cleanser and that will do the trick. Do you think I should make a video on this subject? Honestly skincare is some of my most criticized videos and I have to sort of square my shoulders to answer the comments. But just making a slight change in someone that does a really regular routine will make a difference and shock your skin a tad. Many thanks!

@@Melissa55 I can not believe anyone would ever criticize a utuber doing skin care, when obviously it works so well, since you look so young and your skin is gorgeous. I have said this before …you all do this utube for us…we don’t pay for you, we sometimes use your links and you make a few cents and you very seldom even do affiliate links so I appreciate my utubers. And another thing it seems all of them are beautiful on the outside but they are on the inside where it really counts. Don’t let anyone get you down, Melissa.

Wow Melissa, goes to show you don't always need to overdue it. For you to only use 4 products and have your results is a testament! When I was researching vit c I checked out Dr. Dray too. I'm on my 2nd bottle of Timeless not sure I'd get again. Hasn't done anything special for me. I'm with you, heard such good things about Skinceuticals. They sell it a salon/spa near my home. So I'll be curious what you think. Enjoy spring break with the grandchildren! 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 🥰

SkinCeuticals CE Ferulic & Phloretin CF are the best and nothing else compares. It’s expensive, but worth it if your over 50. A little goes a long way. Dermstore will have a sale every once in awhile and I’ll order a couple bottles. I also only use it at night because I don’t like wearing anything under my foundation during the day.

I wanted to try that Tatcha Violet C serum but was told by the Tatcha care team to use it at night and not to be used with RetinA, that serum has 10% mild fruit AHAs: apple, grapefruit, orange, lemon, lime, hawthorn, and jujube. They told me I could alternate nights with my RetinA and this serum. I use my RetinA 5 nights a week (been doing this for 7 years) nope not giving up my RetinA. I did buy the Truth Treatment Vit.C trifecta, I first purchased the small set then when they had their 30% off sale in December I bought the big set, it’s pricey just like SkinCeuticals but I’ve been using this for 3 months now. Don’t know how long these bottles last cause they are black glass bottles and you can’t see what’s left but so far a little over 3 months is not bad. I really like it.❤

Have you ever tried Rhonda Allison - she has wonderful products and some fantastic Vitamin C serums plus they are very effective. They are also pocketbook friendly. There is a med spa in Tucson AZ called the Art of Skin - they do consults to help decide which products are the best fit. This line also has some wonderful products that amp up your sun screen too.

Regarding the vitamin E part; a lot of things penetrate the skin's lipid (or waxy) barrier. Some oils like almond and apricot kernel do it well, the same with rose hip oil. It can take 20 to 30 minutes, some oils longer, but it does reach the deeper layers of the skin. Vitamin E in oils like these can work well. I think apricot kernel oil is naturally high in vitamin E. I don't think a dermal roller would do anything but make punkture holes and not do anything to the lipid barrier. Salicylic acid might enhance the penetration. (I'm just thinkig aout loud, but it has been on my my mind too. Thanks for the info on the vitamin C serums.

Melissa -- the only Vitamin C that penetrates the lipid barrier of skin successfully is "Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate" and Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate (THD). These are lipid penetrating fat soluble derivative of Vitamin C. Tatcha uses Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate (THD). Peach and Lily uses "Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate" and it is oil based and penetrates the skin fast. It is good to give skin a number of forms of Vitamin C but L-Ascorbic Acid in Skinceuticals is the most studied and has clinical research behind it.
@A.K.00
@A.K.00 Год назад
while it's true that there are newer vitc compounds coming up that penetrate skin better or even are more stable, the other side of the coin is that they don't have years of research with definitive data behind them for collagen production & brightening like ascorbic acid has.

I have been using Timeless since 2019, however, when I started traveling again I experienced leakage from the bottle. I pack it in my cosmetic bag with my other skin care items. I noticed a discoloration in the inside of my bag, and then noticed that my bottle of Timeless was significantly lighter in weight upon returning from travel. I heard they have changed to a different type of bottle but when I got my recent order it was the old packaging. I took it on a weekend trip and lost more than half the product from leakage. I am now on the hurt for a new Vitamin serum but can’t afford Skin Ceuticals. I am thinking about trying MaeLove.

Hi Melissa, I also hate when you find a product and they discontinue it. I've been using the Murad spot remover serum for the past 2 years and it has lightened 4 sun spots I have and on 2 of them it has made them hard to even see. I always us Vit C and have tried the ones from Timeless and Ole Henriksen as well. I haven't been able to make myself pull the trigger on the Skin Ceuticals yet, so I'm counting on you to give us the big update when you finish your bottle. Also, our skin doesn't have a wax barrier but rather oils and sebum. I use a toner or acid to clean the skin and then apply the Vit C. I have a feeling I better start tucking away money in an envelope for pricey one.

Hi Melissa I hate when companies discontinue a product! I should have listened to you a long time ago. I heard you say the other day you stick to the same products,because they work plus you are not always spending money on new products. You have said this many times and I should have listened. A while back , I went to the library. One of the magazines I got was Women’s Health. It explained the same thing..takes about three months to see products work and better to work with a few products a while to see if it works. I started keeping with my Vitamin C serum , Retinol and a hyaluronic serum. 😊 My skin started looking better. Before that , I was trying new things. I was also using a moisturizer cream. It was a fairly expensive but broke my face out like a teenager. I remembered than about your words about using moisturizer creams. I have never heard of that eyeshadow palette, but it is beautiful and a great price. I watch Dr.Dray too.

She really explains products well. I’m sure you’re enjoying your grandkids. I went to West Palm Beach a few days ago to visit my son. I went with my daughter and the two older grandkids. We had so much fun. Take care and God Bless! ❤

Dr Dray said to use an AHA or BHA face wash to remove oil on face before applying vitamin C which helps it absorb better. Also the timeless and skincueticals have low PH which also increases absorption.

Sorry for your heartbreak on losing your favorite product. I've been using Peter Thomas Roth' s Potent C Power Serum for a few years. I think it makes my skin look brighter. QVC sells it and I get it on easy pay plan + free shipping. I tried timeless but found it too sticky and tacky. PTR Power C serum soaks in without stickiness and it doesn't oxidize. I also like his Niacinamide serum at night time. Appreciate your video on this subject.

Hey there, I watch Nadine Baggott a lot because she's a wealth of knowledge on skincare and she's British so I enjoy listening to her but anyway she said that there's a solvent in the skin ceuticals which is why your fingers squeak (or feel like they do) when you rub them together after touching it.

Hi Melissa. Thanks for the Vitamin C video. I had been using Skinceuticals Serum 20 AOX that I bought from my aesthetician, and loved it. Last time, the nurse accidentally grabbed the CE Ferrulic, and I didn't realize it until I got home and looked at the receipt! 😮Anyway, I kept it, and I think it works very well for my skin. Looking forward to hearing what you think after using it longer, and looking forward to the next video of your new purchases!

@@Melissa55 if I’m honest, I can’t say there is an observable difference between the two Skinceutical products yet. Probably need to use CE Ferrulic a while longer before I know for sure. Luckily a bottle lasts a long time. If I still don’t see much difference, it’s hard to justify the higher cost. May be time to try Timeless… I’ll miss the AOX too.

Oh no, Melissa don’t use vitamin c serum after microneedling/dermarolling. Actually learned about this long ago from an old Dr Dray vid in which she described that vitamin c can crystalize in the channels made by microneedling and cause big problems. I used to use skinceuticals c e ferulic years (over a decade!) ago in my 30s ( I have no idea how I afforded it then!) but wasn’t sure how much it was doing and found other vit c serums over the years would stain etc, and then read vit c increases collagen but decreases elastin ugh. It was so complicated so dropped it off completely 5 years ago. But my skin is now sagging in my 40s. You look great (as an understatement) and your results have encouraged me to save up and try specifically skinceuticals again! Can’t tolerate vit a.
