I’m new here and so happy to have found you—I can’t believe the algorithm hasn’t brought me to you sooner! Your product preferences and philosophy really align with mine. I’d love to see your nighttime routine sometime!

Your recommendation inspired me to add the Superegg serum to cart, and I am tempted to try the moisturizer too. But with so many moisturizers to get through, I’m holding off for now.

I’m curious—how would you compare the Dr. Diamond serum to the Allies of Skin GF serum? I just started using the AOS serum and am surprised by how much I like it. Do you think it’s similar to the Diamond serum?

Hiii! Lately, I’ve been applying a lighter moisturizer under one (or even two!) layers of something thicker and more occlusive, so I think the Superegg will fit perfectly into my routine.

Interesting that you mentioned pilling with the AOS serum—I haven’t experienced that at all! I’m actually convinced it makes my skin look firmer right after I apply it, so I’ll definitely keep using it. That said, you had me at ‘glow you haven’t found with anything yet’—I’ll have to give the Dr. Diamond serum a try eventually too!

I'm a big, big fan of layering alllll the moisturizers and love that you're doing that, too! I know the Allies of Skin serum really works for some, just not for me unfortunately! I'm planning to test out another GF product soon though -- will keep this space updated :)

Hi hello! Welcome and so happy to have you! I wish the algorithm brought you here earlier, too! Generally speaking, I cannot recommend Superegg's moisturizer enough but it's certainly more of a serum cream than a traditional "moisturizer," at least from my perspective.

Re: Allies of Skin - Frankly, I don't love their growth factor serum. The smell is yucky and it pills on me BUT I'm thrilled it's working for you! While I can't speak to the specific differences between the two formulas, the Dr. Diamond Meticine serum has a water-like consistency rather than a true serum. Because it's like water, it never pills on me and I found it *so* much easier to incorporate into my routine and I like it more overall. I really feel like it adds a glow to my skin that I haven't found with anything else (yet). So long story a little bit shorter, my experience with the serums is very different but if something is working for you, definitely continue to use it!
