In reply to Casondra B. Casondra, it's totally a matter of personal preference. Keep in mind that glycolic acid makes skin more photosensitive, so use sunscreen religiously.

i want to alternate a CoQ10 hyaluronic toner with my 8% glycolic toner–which one would be better to use at night and which would be better to use during the day. i was thinking CoQ10 at night because of the moisture holding properties of hyaluronic acid–what i mean is that i’m hoping it will help the night oils/retinol/moisturizer “work better”. Am I making this up or does it completely not matter which time of day i use them because they are both toners and not serums or something.

In reply to Fynl. Fynl, I'm not sure if you can find a Q10 product that meets all your requirements. Unfortunately, when formulating products, brands take more into consideration what's popular/cheap than what's effective. Another product I like, though, is Celltrex CoQ10 Complete.

Would you consider updating your Q10 recs. Been searching for one with liposomal delivery that also does not contain retinol, alcohol or fragrance. Not having much luck thus far. Skin Biology uses coQ10, but there is always lavender oil in there somewhere and I live fragrance-free or at least highly reduced. (Family with COPD and asthma).
Thanks Gio!

In reply to xin. Xin, I think you should see some results but it may take some time. :)

In reply to Janessa. Janessa, haha, these types of posts can be a bit boring I guess, even though I try to keep the language simple and easy-to-follow even for those that aren't into science. :)
