Hi @Shifa Kan I hope you are well 💫 do this I would pick a lightweight hydrating product that isn’t heavy on the skin such as Hydrating B5 serum which is suitable for all skin types 💫

Hi @Jinal Patel I hope you are well 💫 I would recommend a vitamin c serum based on your concerns I would choose Silymarin CF, then I would apply discolouration defence, a moisturiser and then an SPF. I would then apply retinol in the evenings, I hope this helps 💫

Hi @Michelle346 I hope you are well 💫 it looks like a sunspot, to help lighten it I would advise using an antioxidant like one of our vitamin c serums, and a corrective serum like discolouration defence as well as SPF 50 daily. In the evenings you could use retinol, I hope this helps 💫💫💫

Last month I developed an allergy! I had thickness of skin under one eye & couldn’t put make up on. Also it affected my lips which went dry & cracked. I have been using the Antioxidant lip repair & looks like it’s helping. When I put makeup on it cakes & peels? ☹️

Hi @Susan Cooke, I would recommend using the Phyto Corrective Serum. It has a botanical blend to help sooth the skin https://www.skinceuticals.co.uk/en_GB/phyto-corrective-for-blemish-or-redness-prone-skin-and-all-skin-types-30ml/S104.html💫

Ageing Cheeks

My cheeks (below cheek bones) seem to be losing fullness and the skin is feeling more papery, are there any products you would recommend for this?

Hi there @Nicolaa, I would recommend using the Resveratrol B E Night Serum and the A.G.E Interrupter. The combination of these products will help with firmness and skin density 💫

Cell cycle catalyst

I have just received my sample of the new cell cycle catalyst. Within the package is a set of instructions on how to layer the serum. But there is conflicting information on the leaflet provided and on the skinceuticals community under ‘trial products’. The leaflet which arrived with the trial product says apply AFTER your vitamin c, but on house of skin community page AND on the skinceuticals website it says apply BEFORE vitamin c. Please see photos!!! Can you advise me what the correct way to layer the serum is please?!! Thank you!! @Amna@Skinceuticals @Kasey @ Skinceuticals @May @ SkinCeuticals

I was going to ask the same question! Also not sure if I should stop using my H A Intensifier during the test as both products are in the ‘Correct’ range. I start my morning routine with CE Ferulic followed by H A Intensifier. (edited)

Hollows under the eyes

Hi! I’m 49 and in my forties I have lost a lot of fat under my eyes and I have hollows there which create shadows and darkness, and concealer doesn’t cover it. Is there anything I can do about this please?

Hi @Emma W I hope you are well 💫 as it is loss of fat, there isn’t a product to help with that unfortunately. I would recommend speaking to a doctor/nurse for injectables if that’s an option for you 💫
