    Default DMAE in face cream

    visit-red-300x50PNG
    A while back I saw

    a dermotologist's article about using DMAE in face creams. Has anybody else here seen anything about it? I'd like

    to know if there are negatives or issues with using it regularly.

    My SO, Jessica, decided to try it. She's

    almost 28 years old and has fair skin. Prior to this experiment her skin looked about average for her age. Over a

    period of a couple of months her skin really improved, became clear, firmer and younger looking. Just to make sure

    we weren't imagining things she stopped using it for about a month; the difference is noticeable! Her skin looks

    about like an 18 year old's now.

    The stuff she is using is from TwinLab and is called DMAE H3. She mixes about

    6 drops with a couple ounces of lotion and applies it after showering. Below is the info from the bottle:



    DMAE-H3 is a concentrated solution of the PABA (para-aminobenzoic acid) salt of DMAE stabilized with

    benzoic acid. DMAE (dimethylaminoethanol) by itself is alkaline and caustic. Therefore, only salts and esters of

    DMAE are used. DMAE naturally occurs as liquid in its concentrated form. DMAE naturally occurs in fish

    What form are hers in? Is she using the oral gel pills and making a hole in them and

    using the liquid inside to mix with lotion?

    We buy it in liquid form. I think that is what the H3 on the label means. This link is one place on the web where you can get it dirt cheap. I've been using it as a health supplemant for a long time.

    I read mixed reviews on MUA. Some

    loved it and some didn't notice a difference. The products that they were reviewing were ones from Dr. Perricone

    that cost $90.00 for 2 ounces. For that price I would expect it to be a face lift in a jar.

    People are

    such fools for labels. I'll give it a try. It's so inexpensive to do it the way Jessica does it.

    I sure

    plan on giving it a try. I also heard that if you take flax seed oil every day, it works from the inside out. I

    tried 1 T. of it and drank something down quickly after it and I still had a "fish" taste in my mouth but it didn't

    last long. I did notice after a few days of taking it once a day that my skin was really soft and I didn't need

    lotion. It is hard to keep up with every day though.
