I have been away from Aromaleigh way too long. I'm sure this question has been asked, but I need help figuring out what and when with the Vit C stuff. I've tried the serum, mist, masque, foaming cleanser (which doesn't foam for me...any ideas?) and nocturne. I don't really remember how they all reacted to my skin since I haven't been able to replace things when they ran out.

I want to make a big purchase and I want it to be skin care. Meg and I are working on washing our face and brushing our teeth every night before bed (I come from a home where toothbrushes and paste weren't necessities, I'm trying). I tried looking at the store I usually go to for groceries for stuff I could afford on a more regualar basis (since he makes 1/2 what he used to), but they don't have the stuff I'm using right now...wow, long story...

OK, so the question is which of these do I need, which ones go first, etc. I know nocturne likes to go on last and with a 30 min absorption time between the last thing I put on and putting on the nocture.

I have very oily skin and large pores and acne and Tons of blackheads. I'm also 35, if that helps with ideas.

I wish I could've used the Vit C stuff - I bought a few things but couldn't use it with my very dry skin. My Mom was happy to inherit everything though.

Sorry, can't be of more help, but I'm sure some of the Vit C junkies will be along to tell you which order to use them in!!

Hi! I have combination skin and I use the vit c serum under my sunscreen during the day and the vit c creme at night (it leaves my skin very soft and not greasy). Since you mentioned you have blackheads, I recommend trying the Glycolic Acid serum.

If you google "glycolic acid and blackheads," you will find lots of good information. Here's one site I found that you might find helpful: http://radiantskinclinic.com/r...pores-and-oily-skin/
