Anyone use Dr Denese FIRMING PADS and C-PADS - are both needed?

SandGirl · ‎03-09-2010

I ran out of firming pads and was getting ready to re-order and I seen the 2pc kit with the C-Pads and the Firming pads and it made me think maybe I should try this for a 1-2 punch.

Anyone try both?
Are both needed?

Thanks for your help/input!

I use them both. One day one, the next day the other. I like that there is vitamin C in the one. I have been using these for many years. Never thought about it until I saw your post!

Thank you!! Dr D recommends the C in the morning and the firming at night.

Every other day sounds good too! Since you have used them for many years, do you notice good results with continued use?

At 58, I am blessed to have good skin. I do use a lot of products, vary what I use day to day, many I use consistent but along with other products. I would not really know what works best I am afraid to say! I believe 95 % of our skin health is genetic....the remaining 5% is what we do, lifestyle, skin care etc. I take good care of my skin, eat a clean diet, but I was blessed with good genes as well.

I agree with you 100%. I am the same way, workout daily, drink 100oz of fresh water each day, take oils and work on beauty from the inside out! You were lucky to be blessed with good genes.

I use both as well, the C in the morning and the Firming Facial at night....honestly, I think I like the Firming Facial better...the C are ok, but I feel like my skin seems congested since I've been using them. I may try using them every other morning and adding a Vitamin C serum instead. The congestion has been easily remedied with my weekly Exfolikate and a light facial, but I think the Firming Facial pads on their own really decongest the skin....just my experience, hope it helps

Thank you! My face breaks out super easy and I am all clear now so I am happy you wrote this!! Makes me think I should just stick to the firming pads!

Thanks for taking the time to write - Have a good day!

Oh, you're welcome!! Yep, I noticed recently blackheads on my nose and chin and some tiny bumps on my jawline....when I use the Firming Facial pads these are nonexistent...my face is clear and glows...I also highly recommend Dr Denese's Firmatone Retinol Serum..In my opinion, it's one of the best products in her line..it will give you clear, beautiful skin..I'm not kidding lol!!! Exfolikate is the best exfoliating treatment I've tried and I use that once a week. My face breaks out easily as well, so I'm careful what I put on it! Anyway, have a great day too!!
