    I have heard great things about retinol A 1% cream and also about Vit C 20% serum. Also Co Q 10 oil and Niacinimide.
    I own all and have been using retinol at night with Co Q10 around the eye area at night . 20% C & Niacinimide during the day.
    So
    1. Is one superior for anti aging purposes?
    2. Can I use the both C & retainol at night, and niacinimide (B3 )in the day with sunscreen?
    3. Also will adding a powder B3 opened capsule to a favourite cream be beneficial?
    4. Will the C and retinol compliment or degrade each other layered together?
    5. Is there a better combo for the B3 in this line up?
    Many thanks for your advice.

    1. Retinol, Vit C and niacinamide are the most effective anti-aging ingredients we’ve seen. The data on CoQ10 is not as strong. 

    2. Yes. 
    3. It depends on the formula but in general we recommend not hacking products like that. 
    5. Not that we’re aware of.
