Which would be better for me; clenziderm pore therapy or nu-derm toner?, I am 52 with a combination, Scandinavian skin, I want smaller pores

I have never tried clenziderm pore therapy, but it sounds good. The nu-derm toner helps to make my skin fresher and to look brighter and better. I don't know if my pores are smaller, but my skin looks better when I use the cleanser and toner together. I have been using Obaji products for over 12 years and I think they are really good. My dermatologist suggested them to me. Maybe I will try clenziderm pore therapy and see how that works. Good luck.

I've never used clenziderm as I have used Obagi for several years. I am 56 & my pores aren't noticeable & they were a problem in younger years. I swear by Nu-Derm toner. It works on me!

By the way, I'm 40 with pretty decent skin (age-wise). Most people think I'm 30. My problem was hydration. So my esthetician, recommended Vital C instead. I prefer that as well.

All of the Nu Derm line is fabulous for mature skin....you will definitely see impressive improvement. The Luxe is a nice addition for added moister at night. I love it!

Yes! This is a great product for minimizing pores as well as creating a matte finish. The Dr Brandt "Pores no More" line is great for reducing pores as well.

Hi, I'm 60 too but my skin isn't too damaged. I don't think the Tria does much. I used it for 12 weeks and can't see much difference in my face. So, I think you might be disappointed. You might want to look into something more serious like the dot laser or the co2 laser.

You can buy the NU-Skin primer, but this also comes with a cream you can use.

The .05 was recommended by my esthetician. I use it every other day. When I first started, my skin peeled in some areas, but after using for a few weeks, it didn't happen anymore. I would start with the .05 & if it doesn't seem like enough, try using everyday. Less is more. :)

i have been using .05 mm for a few months, i didnt see much results. i switch to 1mm and saw results in 3months. also i am using dermpen/stamp. i am only working with 1 scar, and i dont stamp on good skin, only on deep atrophic scars. also when using this follow up wit neosporin for 1-2days. after the wound is healed, go head and use your vitamin c+e hyralunic acid serum. and take 1000mg vitamin C daily the day off the rolling. you can go to acne.org for complete regimines and sucess stories. Goodluck besafe

Very different! This is a finer exfoliation with different ingredients. I would say Proactiv is better for teen or young adult skin. The ProX is perfect to use with the whole system and the thickness is awesome to do a little facial massage for both smooth skin and blood flow for a nice glow.

See my review of it on June 20, 2013 "Cured My Eczema." I agree w/you that sagging skin has to be surgically tightened. The moisturizing chemicals expand the skin by filling the cells with water so the face looks filled out--younger--since that is what makes the difference between older and younger human bodies. I prefer alpha hydroxy or retinol and Neutrogena is the least expensive, hypoallergenic, fast acting anti-aging creme I've found. The Night has no sunscreen, the Day is SPF 15. But there definitely is something very good in DMAE (which seems to be alcohol combined with...) that is good for the skin. I had to stop drinking coffee caffienated and the DMAE substitutes as a stimulant. See my review of it on June 20, 2013 "Cured My Eczema."

They have the Wonder Pore toner/astringent. Other than that, there is nothing that is crucial.

I am 52 and I like the turmeric sponge for mature skin. My skin is dry and I like using the sponge rather than drying soaps or detergents. It's also a lot less expensive than high-end products. My daughter have liked the charcoal sponge which is helpful in combating acne. I hope this helps.

I just bought all the BE and I am not totally satisfied. I will keep playing with the brushes and minerals. But I too have large pores and was horrified to see them look twice as big, when I tried to apply it myself. When I went to the BE store in Dallas this afternoon, they applied it. My pores didn't look big then, so I will keep trying.I thought about using a water mist spray to set in better. But if what others are saying about the staying power is true, I may be defeating the coverage.

Use obagi clenziderm theraputic moisturizer. Only use benzoiyl peroxide product every other day for the first month or so. Need to use product religiously for 3 months to get full effect.

I have used Neutrogena Dermatologics Retinol for about 6 months and love it...I really do see a diminish in fine lines and my skin feels tighter. I ordered another bottle recently because I did not want to go a day without. Please give it several weeks to show a difference in your skin.

Yes, But I'm not sure the results will be any different. I've tried the combining of two items before and it ended up clogging the pores and causing a little acne so I stopped it. These creams and lotions seem to hardly do anything they say and cost a lot of money. It seems they do the same thing as just the cheap moisturizers and you get the same results. Good luck to you.
