BRAVO!!!🎉 Finally-an informative video that tells me exactly what this product is. What’s in it, what it can do for my skin and how it compares with some other growth factor serums. In my opinion creators with far larger numbers of subscribers than yourself could learn a lot from this video Superb! ❤🎉❤🎉

[@sambythecounter]

Such a nice texture!! 😍

You’re always so informative in your research & so easy to digest! *add to cart*

Thank you 🤗

I was using a cooper peptide with vitamin C. It caused irritation and damage to my skin barrier. It took about 6 weeks to fully recover. If a product recommends not combining with an acid it's best to use them on separate days rather than a few mins apart like you mentioned. I'm booked it to have Exosomes microneedling next week. I had PRP last year. I can't wait!

[@sambythecounter]

@@AUSSIEBAEx Definitely agree it’s best to follow brand advice.

[@KimberZK]

Thank you for this video! I ordered 2 yesterday after watching MAS.

[@sambythecounter]

@@KimberZK Hope you enjoy using 😍🙏

[@IyeLovesLife]

I feel like you’ve become a bit of a KZbin expert. This product sounds exactly like something I need. I’m trying to prevent fine lines and I love thin serums.

[@sambythecounter]

@@IyeLovesLife 🥰🥰 I’m enjoying YT so much I just wish I had more time to improve texture shots and include actual application footage. But balance has been difficult. It’s such an easy product to integrate 🙏

[@mtanyaw]

Thanks Sam, I’m interested in trying this (as I am all TO serums) but wasn’t sure what it was 😂

[@phunk8607]

i am with you... i layered a dozen of stuff at the same time... YOLO

[@Anonymous6h4a8h5a]

Love this video and your content! Question: which cosmetic chemists or other professionals are you referring to when mentioning it’s generally considered fine to pair growth factors & peptides with vitamin C? I would love to watch/read that content as well! Thank you ❤️

[@sambythecounter]

Alex and Ramon discuss interaction here: instagram.com/p/DCNxBoly0bA/ (they are both working chemists) And Mira who is super great at interpreting data has a video about layering here: instagram.com/skinsciencebymira/reel/C-a1UG9St70/ (Not a chemist though)

[@rehab2see]

I very much appreciate your content. I’ve used Neocutis Bio Serum for several years which has human growth factors. I did stop using the Bio Serum for a couple of months and then restarted. I noticed a dramatic improvement in my skins appearance and texture. These improvements were visibly noticeable in less than a week. I wonder if plant derived growth factors will work the same has human derived. Is there science backed research comparing plant derived growth factors to human derived growth factors. The Neocutic Bio Serum is expensive but in my opinion it is well worth the investment based on my experience with long term use. Thank you very much for all the work you put into your content. I find it very beneficial and informative. ❤

[@sambythecounter]

@@rehab2see I’m not entirely familiar with human derived, but I believe they’re generally considered superior as the extract is usually a blend of lots of different things, to form a growth factor soup. So the affinity with skin is probably more “correct.” Plant options are isolated so it probably stands to reason the impact would be less powerful. Having said that, I believe purity and stability is much more difficult with human sourcing, although Neocutis is probably the best in class. The Ordinary serum caught my attention because of the blend of 3 growth factors, not just one. And of course the price point. You’d be the absolute best candidate to try it, then you can come back and tell us all how close the results were. 😂🙏

[@rehab2see]

@ I am intrigued by the Ordinary GF serum and want to give it a try. It is an excellent price point.

[@charlotte3405]

Thank you for this video !! Very clear ☺️ Do you think we can use it during pregnancy ?

[@sambythecounter]

@@charlotte3405 Unfortunately this isn’t a recommendation brands can make either way, so it’s something to check with your doctor.

[@charlotte3405]

@sambythecounter thank you for your answer

[@kindheart-e7b]

hi can I use the egf serum with the copper peptide serum??

[@sambythecounter]

@@kindheart-e7b Yes - it’s just probably not needed to layer them in one routine. So you could use one AM and the other PM.

[@cookie532]

Can it be used around the eyes ie under areas 🇬🇧

[@sambythecounter]

Generally it would be fine, but I usually try to use specific eye creams or serums as they're less likely to migrate and are often tested a bit differently for both stability but also preservative load. If you do use it, I would apply close to, but not right up against the lash line.

[@cookie532]

@ thanks Sam 😊🇬🇧

[@uteteemma7730]

What results did you see from using it?

[@sambythecounter]

The claims are mainly around lines and wrinkles, which I don't have much of. So for me the results have been around softer/smoother texture, it has been surprisingly hydrating and skin softening for such a light serum. I use it more so in combo with other peptides like Argireline and Matrixyl to assist with prevention/delay.
