Green Tea Aloe and Oat Serums

Post by emmy2410 » Fri Feb 26, 2010 10:00 pm

I bought a sample of both the above and was amazed how it works on my skin and I love it. I do have abit of pimple scarring on both my cheeks and sometimes small pimples just pops up and was just using the both serum for a few days and i cld see how it has improved my skin. The small pimples seem to be dissappearing...and my skin is much smoother and nicer. I love how the way it feels. Now I need to get it in the biggies...Thanks karen...love ya products so much and I'm addicted to SN...yippeeee....

I am currently on sick leave after having surgery and started to experiment with my skincare routine.
Today I tried the Oatmeal serum together with the firming moisturizer and I love how my skin feels! So soft and well hydrated. So my cart is filling up again and I must say: Karen, I love the skin care products!
Please don't even stop making these! :)

What's the main difference between these two? I'm trying to decide which one to get a full sized of. :)

All I can offer is that the Green Tea/Aloe is better for oily/blemish prone skin, and Oatmeal is better for dry skin. I prefer the Oatmeal, but my 12 yo DD likes the Green Tea/Aloe.

I have dry flaky skin on my cheeks, and I put on Green Tea/Aloe before jojoba oil yesterday after showering and before putting on makeup. The serum is the only thing that deviated from my usual routine, and when I removed my makeup at night (OCM), I could feel a noticeable difference to the quality of my skin; my cheeks feel soft and smooth instead of flaky!

I didn't put it afterwards at night, but right now (next morning), even though skin is not as soft, the flaky area is definitely a lot better and occupies a smaller space.

YMMV, of course. And I'm basing my review off my first and only try right now. But daayyyuummmm, I'm impressed!

Hi! Karen,
I am very confused about using green tea and aloe serum. My skin is oily and acne skin. I'm using a sample of this serum.I see my skin look better :) , it soothed my reddish acnes, made my skin smooth and specially, it prevented my skin from new acnes :D . but i still feel this serum could not hydrate enough my dehydrated skin. Because my skin was still oily in T-zone and area around my nose still a little bit flaky :cry: ( it's winter in Viet Nam now). So i want to ask that if this serum can hydrate my dehydrated skin in summer if i just use only this serum, or i must use something else combinating with this serum?

What would you recommend me?

Thanks a lot

There are a few things you can try. Oatmeal is the most hydrating serum, and you could layer it along with the Green Tea & Aloe. Also, you could mist with Pore Refining Toner. It works by plumping up (actually hydrating) the skin around the pore to make the pores look smaller.
