How does DIY Vitamin C compare to Skinceuticals and Cell-ex?I have used some of the Skinceuticals products and they worked better than anything else BEFORE I tried AND FOUND RA and DIY vit C.
Humm....have you tried to make Kassys current C serum with jojoba yet?sorry, I have used the Skinceuticals products for a year before and I believe that their products are superior than DIY vitamin C serums only because it is formulated thorougly with preservatives and Vitamin E that can make it work on your skin all day because vitamin E recycles vitamin C so they both work together for longer periods of time (generally u only need to apply once in the morning with skinceuticals). With the DIY Vitamin C serum, you cant add vitamin E b/c vitamin E is fat soluble and vit. C is water soluble so even if you shook it really well it still wouldnt be emulsified the same way as a ready made product fomulated in industrial machines with preservatives. The ferulic also helps the skinceutical serum last and work on ur skin longer.
I have made Kassy's serum with the jojoba which also has vit E in it. I haven't had a problem getting it to mix. Just a good shake before I apply it is all it takes for me.sorry, I have used the Skinceuticals products for a year before and I believe that their products are superior than DIY vitamin C serums only because it is formulated thorougly with preservatives and Vitamin E that can make it work on your skin all day because vitamin E recycles vitamin C so they both work together for longer periods of time (generally u only need to apply once in the morning with skinceuticals).

This makes sense to me. Sure wish I had one of those fancy machines that rotates at an extremely high speed-I will look hard for a way for it to emulsify, but there is one thing I do know about how they emulsify the vitamin E in brand name vitamin C serums, after they add the preservatives they pour it in tubes and place them in a centrifugal machine and that machine rotates at an extremely high speed which force the molecules to bind and mesh together.
You are definitely on a mission aren't you GuesswhoIAm?
