Question for Mads
You know I was truly impressed with DERMAdoctor’s Tease Zone Oil
Control Gel, and btw - it doesn’t seem to be to harsh for my otherwise
very sensitive skin.
I saw that CCC also contains these Sebum Sequestering Micro-Particles,
and I wanted to ask you if you find that CCC does a good job of
keeping your excess sebum in check?
Thanks

Andreas, the CCC does not leave the skin a lot oily, but more oily than
the teaze zone gel. But the tease zone gel is purely intended to bind
up excess sebum, it has no anti-inflammatory or anti-acne properties.
Compared to the Cutanix the CCC does not leave the skin oily.
But generally, a strict diet keeps the sebum much more in check than
the CCC.
That said, as a topical, the CCC is probably one of the less oily, and
a lot of the shine that is created by the other ingredients in the CCC
binds up in the icro particles.
best wishes

I’m thinking of a combo of them both — using the Tease Zone Gel in
the morning and CCC in the evening/night. At least during the summer,
in the winter the cold and dry air may allow the CCC to absorb more
effectively and the Tease Zone Gel becomes more or less abundant.
But I have to say, once again, how impressed I am! It really did what
it promised and I’m amazed that my skin could tolerate it. Within
seconds the whole face feels, in lack of better words, dry and clean.
I can highly recommend this to anyone out there with oily skin!
Maybe I have my rather new intake of the full range of rosacea
supplements to thank for making my skin thougher and stronger, and
able to once again tolerate a bit "stronger" stuff.
It’s just a shame the CCC is so damn expensive!
