I would love to know what serum or serums to use with the LightStim. The serum that came with the kit broke me out. TIA!

Everything breaks me out. I use Origins Plantscription Serum on a daily basis and with the LightStim.

Thanks! Besides breaking out, my skin is very reactive lately. I'll check this out.

There was a German study (Google it) showing that Green Tea applied before infrared treatment delivered results 10X Faster!

I'd ordered one off eBay from Korea, but was notified the manufacturer was no longer producing that particular configuration. While researching others, I just kind of made my own. I used Organic India Green Tea with Holy Basil, and made a really strong cup of tea. Put it in a spritzer and that was it.

THEN I read a post on EDS that somebody from LightStim had responded to an email saying that the German study was really designed to sell some company's Green Tea cream and it really didn't make a diff.

That didn't make sense to me because what I read indicated they made a solution from green tea extract, soaked cotton strips in it, and applied it to the face for 20 minutes before treatment. What cream? LightStim's response (or rather the individual from LightStim who responded to this woman) seems kind of odd to me.

I want to tell you that after using my little concoction prior to the LightStim, my skin looked wonderful! Just healthier, softer, I was very pleased. I'll continue to use it (or a "real" green tea serum) with my LightStim treatments, regardless of what the LightStim guy allegedly said.

NCN makes one, and there are others out there, too.

I don't think any green tea serum or potion is going to replace any peptide-rich product, nor address the same issues, but I just wanted to tell you about my experience with Green Tea and LightStim. Just make a cup and try it yourself.

DUPE -- sorry!

I use Isomers Copper P, Acetyl Hexapeptide-8: 15% Argireline or Matrixyl serums. Look for a good serum with peptides without all the parabens.

Thanks so much! That story is odd and something doesn't add up. I am so going to make my own green tea and put it in a spritz bottle. Sounds great and it worked for you. That is the bottom line

I use the Isomers serum that comes with their Nutritone system. Got a 4-pack for something like $25 last year. The Nutritone and the LightStim are a great combo.

Thanks! I have the Isomers Copper P. I also have some of the other Isomers serums. I also don't use products with parabens! Great suggestions

Thanks Susan.. I have the Isomers Nutritone system. I really have to start using it. It just sits in the drawer. I don't have the serum that comes with it but that is easy to buy. So the 2 machines work well together? That is good to know. Every bit helps!
