I have been given the following products as a gift
N&F dragon's blood serum
" ". Hydrate
N &f Glycolic fix serum
Glycolic overnight purifying gel
Glycolic cleanser.

I'm looking forward to using them but what regime would you advice.

My skin is generally normal but sometimes can be a bit on the dry side.
I am in my 50s and have good skin at the moment, I don't tend to have any breakouts.

No advice, I'm afraid, just bumping for you. My skin sounds similar to yours, and I'm in my 50s, and I also have a N&F gift set that a client gave me, and I'm not sure what to do with it - I always saw it as a younger person's brand, I guess. I have the glycolic pads, the glycolic scrub, glycolic serum, the no needle serum and the dragon's blood serum. I'm guessing I shouldn't be slapping it all on at once!

I'd start by just introducing 1 of the dragons blood products for one week to see how you get on and then the 2nd dragons blood the following week (the dragons blood products are meant to be hydrating). Depending how you get on with the dragons blood you could then slowly introduce/ test the glycolic products. If you don't like them then please send them my way Wink

I use the glycolic cleanser and love it but I get a lot of breakouts and have very oily skin! Not sure how it works with normal/dry skin.

I have normal skin, late 40s. I'm not an expert, but my skin looks better after using a glycolic pad at night, wait 15 mins for it to do its magic, and then a serum/oil or moisturiser. I only do this about twice a week though, as I understand it's an exfoliant and guess that's about enough for my skin.

I've used the dragons blood serum before going out - before moisturiser and makeover and I notice that I look fresher and younger in the photos from those nights.

I also love the smell and texture of Superdrug's hot polish cleaser - Naturally Radiant own brand - green tube. Which I found out about on MN
