A question for those that love this: since this is a glycolic product - what do you use as a moisturizer afterwards? And morning or night?

At night I use rosehip oil ( cold pressed virgin oil) got it at whole foods and for the day I use Clinique daily moisture. The thomasroth product is very gentle so I get no burning or peeling skin. Hope this helps.

Hi Jill I use the PTR Un-Wrinkle moisturizer. I have an oily complexion and was worried this might break me out but I have never had a problem with it. It is a bit heavy which concerned me... but no problems and I have been using PTR Un-Wrinkle for over a year. Hope this helps.

I put on Px Super Line Preventor Xtreme after I rinse it off. I use it at night. I also put it on the backs of my hands as a preventative. And again, the Px on my hands. It works for me. I'm 61 and *I* think I look pretty good. If the Px is too strong for you, I tell a lot of people to use organic coconut oil. I use that on my face too and on the ends of my hair. Good luck!

I did not change my normal routine at all when I began using these fantastic pads. I switch off using a hydrating serum (Loreal Age Perfect hydra-nutrition ) and other nights I use Garnier Dark Spot Overnight peel for a really great exfoliater. Hope this helps!

I use a tinted moisturizer in the morning. At night once I've used the peel pads I use Ole Hendrickson products. This is not a harsh peel pad so unless you turn red after these type of products-you should have no problem using the moisturizer you like. I hope this helps!

I've used the PTR Un-wrinkle pads for just about a year now.

Ruslan: there should be a piece of paper inside the box which very clear and detailed instructions. Typically this product is applied with cotton swabs, qtips or a fan brush. If this is your first time using s glycolic acid product I'd only do one to two layers and leave it on no longer than a minute or so. You can work up to leaving it on for about ten minutes total with five layers but listen to your skin on the first application. The recovery time is very Mininal for glycoic. You'll notice some redness and red splotches on some parts if your face that should only stay for about 30-40 minutes after you are done. You will notice small flakes appear on your skin around 3-5 days after. Make sure to use moisturizer during the first 2-3 days after the peel.

I use the serum at night and after that dries, I use Reviva Lab's Elastin & DMAE Night Cream as my moisturizer. I suppose you could use a Retinol Cream with it, I just haven't. Just experiment like I do.

if you have oily skin you don't need to. its a very light formula. I layer it over other products at night but it would be to oily for me to use during the day

HI. I recommend that you always use the serum first.I see no problem using moisturiser at night.As formyself I use the moisturiser with the serum at the begining of the day and use the serum with a cream at night.

I use the gel during the day. It has firming action. The cream is a little more moisturizing. I use it at night.

It is a gel/serum. I use it alone at night instead of a moisturizer and my skin is GLOWING in the morning. If you need to moisturize, do it first, then use the serum.

I think that depends upon your skin. However, remember you are resting so it is an ideal time for a moisturizer or treatment of some sort to work on your skin. I use a moisturizer in the evening.

Don't know why. Since it said sleeping pack, I use it at night right after toner and serum for sure. I also use it in the morning after I wash my face, follow with lotion, whitening, and sunscreen etc of other brands

I use it on clean skin at night. I put a few dabs of dark spot remover on small area first, letting it dry thoroughly. I use an additioal night cream on top, again letting it dry thoroughly. I love this product; it makes my skin so smooth.

It's anti - aging moisturizer, I would use it before your moisturizer morning and night.

I just use this gel during the day, and Clinique's Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion at night. But I'm sure you could use it a night too. However, Jeannette Graf used to make a night gel too, but I have not bought that or seen that recently.

It would be good to use this in the morning, and maybe something else at night.SPF lotions require that you rub them in, otherwise they leave white residue. So, that could perhaps cause irritation though I don't hear anyone complain about that.If you aren't going to be in the sun for more than 10 minutes you probably don't need SPF, unless you are using AHA (Glycolic Acid) or Benzoyl Peroxide on your face--they increase your sensitivity to UV light.

This product (and the facial cleanser) are the only two products in this line that I use. I use the serum in the morning under my make-up. . .it keeps my skin from drying out during the day. I use a night cream (not Meaningful Beauty).

Yes, you should use day and night. Or in your case, at night only. Moisturize first, always.

I use this product as a nightly moisturizer. I add a drop or two to my forehead, nose, chin and cheeks. Seems to clear up a lot of my textural issues and leaves the skin glowing!!!

I use this product everyday and love it. It works as a moisturizer for me, I put this product on in the morning and that's all I use under my makeup. I am sure everyone's skin responds differently but it is certainly worth a try.
