C E Ferulic vs. P-TIOX

let's compare two SkinCeutical serums what are they? what do they do? and which one is worth your money? I have SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic serum and SkinCeuticals P TIOX serum both of these are completely different products with different functions the one thing they have in common is the C E Ferulic serum is a vitamin C serum it's going to stimulate collagen production brighten your skin and protect your skin from environmental stressors like pollution and free radicals it has a very cult like following um I totally understand why the formulation was patented for about 20 years and recently the patent expired so there's a lot of dupes out there but unlike other vitamin C serums this gives you a very beautiful polished glass like skin after and it makes your skin feel very luxurious if you don't really care about the luxury aspect of it and how your skin feels and you just want vitamin C there are a lot of good dupes out there now the SkinCeutical P TIOX serum is a completely different serum it's a peptide serum and it's formulated with a peptide that specifically mimics the effects of neuromodulators like Botox so it's going to smooth the appearance of your fine lines and wrinkles and give you a very glassy skin finish is it absolutely necessary no but if you have the luxury and you like investing in your skincare I highly recommend it I actually like to layer these two in my AM skincare routine so I'll do the vitamin C first and then the ptiox after if I had to choose one I would go for the P TIOX serum again they are very expensive so personally I would skip out a night of drinking and use that money to invest in my skincare because I'm 32 and I need it now
