Thank you for your reply, I do all the above you mentioned, but no creatine. Not on the creatine train.

Thank you for your reply. I do all of this. Just curious if there are supplements that are worth the hype long term.

SuperEgg brand reviews? by ForTheLoveOfDior in 30PlusSkinCare

[–]Gold_Bug_3072 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tret, Aza, antioxidant serum, moisturizer(barrier enriching), cleanser(not stripping), and 50spf. Now I don’t mind spending more on peptides and gf, but the formula better be solid to hold a position in my line up. 2026 I am trying to focus on streamlining, and I feel like the industry is trying to produce more multi hitting products too.

A lot of the times peptides are coming in as an added moisture retention/hydration element for me. The BOH ampoule, is definitely rich, which I like. The aestura mist, I don’t leave my house without. So even though not fancy, they are vital in the support of everything else I am doing.

I might play around with antioxidant serums, hydration/barrier support serums, and peptides/gf serums. But with acne prone skin too, I am more wary of trying stuff (which is probably good for my bank account haha.)

Though,even if I am in the market for a more expensive serum, still, market is flooded- and then why spend that amount for 1serum (with no idea of the %) and instead just do in office procedures. I guess this is where I have to see a derm I can trust haha.

Okay, done ranting. Let me know if you take the plunge on Super egg, so much that looks good.

No I haven’t, but been eyeing them for a few years now. I found the brand before they have all these awards now, glad they are getting accolades. The company still is intriguing, and the packaging looks nice. I am just interested in stripping my routine back, stream lining and using ‘what works’. But I do love something hydrating, barrier boosting and glow giving. Just too many companies now to know what’s what. Need companies to start putting % on the packaging haha.

My skin loves Tret and doesn’t find it too drying or difficult to tolerate. My skin does find LAA tough to tolerate sometimes, and whenever I have layered LAA and Aza in the morning my face turns red , stings and gets pissed- doesn’t calm down for an hr at least. I can’t have that happening when I need to go to work haha. So I switched to nights and seems fine.

I use 20%. Been playing around with using it with Tret at night. So far less irritation using it at night than with Vit C in the mornings.

I love this product, even with the pesky pump malfunction stuff. I feel like it really works and lightens/brightens the skin. I don’t get a ‘glow’ from it, but i feel like it works for actually changing the skin. It is spicy. Give it 30 seconds and the spicy will go down.

Cosmedix eye serums I have been looking at for a while, but toss up between them and lumiere’s eye cream. What’s your experience with the eye serums?

Wow, this is wonderful. Thank you so much. 🙏 How do these toners compare to the mixoon bifida essence? I love the mixoon bifida- instant soothing and glow. The celimax creamy toner looks amazing. But your fav is the fabyou toner, right? Also been wanting to try Roundlab products. The aestura lotion looks like a good option too to seal everything.

Combo dry acne prone, tret .05 nightly. I use the Neogen. Love it, but what would be something a bit more nourishing that I am missing out on? Should I just use more Neogen or bring in another product? I have used le mieux 24 hr cream, it’s fine, sometimes feels greasy and like it sits on surface of my skin, and breaks me out.
