I have been using your Kavi products for several years, but haven't found the right combination of products for my skin. I am 54 years old and am now trying to remedy a couple of different issues:
long history of oily skin (which is now only sometimes oily because of my age)
mild/moderate acne (blackheads & whiteheads under skin on & around nose)
fairly mild Seborrheic Dermatitis (occasional red itchy welts on cheeks & forehead)
sagging, sun/aging spots, broken capillaries
I have been using Coral Kavi for several years and have liked the results. I wash with it at night mixed with a little baking soda (to exfoliate). If I don't use the baking soda, I tend to wake up with a SD welt(s) the next morning. I am now also using Enhanced Rentinol .30% (all-over face & neck), Complex A (eye area), Hyaluronic Acid 95 (all-over face & neck except nose), Complex C spot apply on "jowls" & ridge of nose between eyes/eyebrows. Sometimes as a finishing moisturizer (all-over except nose), I use SPF30 (but have felt like it makes me breakout) and sometimes I pat a tiny amount of coconut oil (sometimes seems to work, sometimes too oily). I have been using this routine morning & night for about 2 1/2 months now. Also, once a week, I use Salicylic Acid 15 (this seems to really help SD & acne). Currently, my acne seems to be under control, but I have a couple of SD welts and my skin looks saggy, lack-luster, spotty & just not "healthy".
I have also used the following, in combination with my routine listed above or in a different routine: Glycolic Serum 30 (not sure but I think it irritates my skin), Glycolic Acid 40-50-60 (SD would appear when just using one of these peels as once a week treatment), Salicylic Acid 25 (would clear up SD on cheeks immediately), Vitamin Hydration Serum (seemed irritating at first, but then seemed to work well...although I noticed more blackheads & whiteheads), Advanced Melatonin Repair Serum (tried 1 bottle of this but didn't notice much improvement).
It seems like I can treat the acne/SD or the anti-aging, but not both together. Any help you can provide would be SO appreciated!
