Thank you so much for responding…..I know you are very busy! I can not wait to read the book on diet and supplements!

The main concerns are how to use both copper peptides and vit C….(alternate days, or is vit C OK in the am and the copper peptides in the evening……or should I not use them in the same routine at all)

….and the other concern was just anything not to use with Retin A, which you answered above.

Thanks again!

I love them too. Are they considered organic? I think they are just “natural”. I can’t find a good true organic line

The main ones to worry about are hydroquinone and glycolic acid. They tend to react with other products. If you use a glycolic cleanser- no worries if you wash it all off. If its a lotion- it is likley to inactivate your retinol. Hydroquinone gets inactivated by glycolic acid and vitmian C and may interact with other ingredients. This is just a summary to get you started. I have to admit I have not started writing this yet becase I am workign on my new book on diet and supplments. I hope this helps! Are there specific products you are worried about?

Dr.B,
I did read the article and enjoyed it, since I also travel a lot. I hope you do not mind if I ask you a question not pertaining to this article….in one of your other posts I requested an article about what skincare products should not be used together or for a certain length of time in between, etc. You stated that you were going to write that (and I am not trying to rush you) I just want to know where it would be posted to make sure that I do not miss it… will it be posted here on this blog or would it be on the yahoo blog? Thanks a lot! Have a great day!

I love Dr. Andrew Weil’s line of mushroom based skin products. My dry skin has not been dry in over a year!

Comment on New Help for Acne Sufferers by Jess

Dear Dr. Baumann,
I have read your book (and loved it!) and have typed myself as DSPW. I am on the “very sensitive” side due to my lifelong problems with acne. I recently completed a course of accutane, which completely cleared up my skin. Now that I am off of it, I am starting to break out again. I am using the recommended products in your chapter (along with topical rx abx and retin-A), but my skin is still dry and bumpy. Any advice for adult acne sufferers?

In my recent years of skin self-discovery, I’ve become a HUGE skincare & ingredient buff. Not just to properly treat my skin, but in hopes to one day, put this passion into practice, and customize beautiful skin care for many people.
Recently I recieved your book as a birthday gift, and honestly believe ‘The Skin Type Solution’ should be the very foundation and principles of the skincare industry, period.
As an aspiring esthetician, I would really appreciate your professional advice on what NYC schools have the most comprehensive training for diversified products, ingredients, and practices in the skin care industry. Basically, the most complete (unbiased) skincare training in the New York City area.
It would be an honor to hear your feedback and suggestions on where one can start this exciting career.
Thank you!,
-Diorela

Comment on Still looking for an organic line by Allison

I have heard good things about Image Skin Care’s Ormedic line. I have tried the sample pack, and I love the serum and the biopeptide cream. Only had enough supply for about a week, and have not purchased, so I cannot tell you any long term effects.
