How should I start a new cream?
Before regular use, try a small amount on a small area, as the American Academy of Dermatology suggests, follow any warnings on the product page, and stop if irritation occurs. Then use the cream at the times its own directions give. None of these creams is a sunscreen, so on days outdoors add sunscreen as a separate daytime step.
Do I need a serum as well?
No. The Renewal Cream's directions allow it on its own or after an optional serum, and the other two creams' directions don't call for a serum. If you'd like to add one, browse the face serums or read peptide serum vs peptide cream.
Is Men's Blue only for men?
"Men's" is part of the product's name. Choose this cream, or either of the others, based on its ingredient list and directions.
