You told me that you liked to use Studio 35 (Walgreen's) as a moisturizer.  Do you use it for day and night?

I use the Walgreens Studio 35 AHA moisturizer every morning and on alternating nights. 

On the other nights, I apply Peter Thomas Roth Retinol Fusion PM Night Serum first and then CeraVe PM Facial Moisturizing Lotion.  The CeraVe PM lotion has niacinamide in it (plus good ceramides) and I've read that using retinol and niacinamide together is a great combo for anti-aging.  I just started using the PTR retinol serum a couple of weeks ago, so far, so good, no adverse reactions.

As an aside, I've read that it's not recommended to use niacinamide with acids, like AHA, because some people may experience flushing (redness) from the chemical reaction of the acid interacting with the niacinamide and breaking it down into niacin (niacin can cause flushing in some people).
