Serious Skin Care Celebrates InstA-tox and FirmAFace Anniversaries
We are so lucky to have choices in skin care and beauty today! That being said, the variety of products and innovations that are placed in front of us daily can, at times, be overwhelming. Even within the Serious Skin Care line the choices can be confusing. This is why I challenge my team everyday on our newest innovations, and make sure we can give you – our customers – the information you need to make an informed decision.
I continually say, “not every product is for everybody!” I hope that you can view our presentations on HSN, watch them again here on hsn.com, read customer reviews, use our customer support line, as well as tap in to the huge resource of social networking. These are all tools you can use to determine what is best for your skin care and beauty needs.
The category of instant topical firmers often invites discussion and passionate commentary. I have lost count of the topical INSTANT firmers over the last decade that have failed to deliver the promise. I am as passionate about our InstA-tox today as I was the day we launched it nearly nine years ago. As we are about to mark the 2nd Anniversary of FirmAFace, I am proud to say that both products remain very popular, and are getting new fans every month.
Like any product so specialized, the InstA-tox and the FirmAFace are only effective if the user works with them and their individual skin to achieve the desired results. We do our best to showcase the use of the products LIVE on HSN, and explain in the package inserts HOW TO use the products, but the true test is for each person to get the product home and try it on their face.
The main difference between the FirmAFace and the InstAtox is really simple. FirmAFace is your total facial makeover, and InstA-tox is really for those targeted areas. To learn more of the differences, click here to hear from our own Cecilia Stock as she explains more about the products.
This September, to celebrate the 2nd Anniversary of FirmAFace we have priced it at the lowest price ever – $15 off the $49.95 HSN price. That’s only $34.95! This value is for the September visit only. If you are presently on AutoShip for FirmAFace secured at the $39.95, you will get a one-time adjustment for your next delivery.
To mark this exciting event, I would love to hear from all you FirmAFace fans right here on the Serious Skin Care blog. Please post and tell me how much you love FirmAFace! We love hearing your stories, like the 40-something mom of three who got carded while on holiday! Or how FirmAFace gave you that extra confidence when you were looking for that new job…
For you fans of InstA-tox, we haven’t forgot you! Tune in to HSN or hsn.com in October as we begin the celebration of the 9th Anniversary of InstA-tox. We are planning a terrific offer on the twin pack!

Help!! I had eye cataract surgery in December and now I don’t have to wear glasses (I’m 55 years old). I was all excited to wear eye make-up and showcase my pretty dark green eyes eyes until I realized how really, really dark and baggy the bags under my eyes are. Seriously, my bags — have bags. I should check my bags in at the airport. My upper lids are OK, its just the bags under my eyes. I never truly thought about my bags until now cuz the glasses covered them. I’m using something to try to lighten the color under by eyes, but even with concealers the darkness shows through. And the concealers look “cakey”. Instatox hasn’t worked. Firm-a-face works on my face but not so much on my bags — the firmess goes away when I put moisturizer or makeup on (even if I mix the Firm-a-face with a moisturizer). And I just started using your facial toning system hoping it will help. Can SSC recommend something else?? ~~Baggy in Michigan
Hope you are enjoying the newest item from Serious Skincare: the Beauty Buzz Ultra Sonic Cleansing Brush, if you have any questions about using it or obtaining replacement parts, please contact Serious Skincare Customer Service at 800-540-8662.
Ceclia, InstA-tox is my best friend. I have heard many testaments that people mix the instA-tox with their foundations, me too. However,it is hard to get the mixture just right,too little,too much. Can you make a foundation and something similar to Hydra-Pixel for those that don’t use a foundation and want some color,glow and add instA-tox in the correct proportions to the ingriedents. I bet these items would be sell outs) Make the foundation(one shade)that adjusts to ones own natural skin tone
lori47,
Thank you for your request and suggestion.
I am very dissappointed that you will not be making Rulinea FX anymore. I LOVED that stuff. I dont understand why you are not making it anymore. Please bring it back…it worked wonders for me.
wickedmind,
It is just the serum that is being reformulated, and you should see the Rulinea products back in the second half of next year.
Will this mean that my autoship will be re-established or will I have to re-do that? SO glad it is not being discontinued.
My mother age 87 loves the RulineaFX line. and so disappointed that the trio is no longer available. Cannot afford to buy each individually. Please bring back in bundle the serum, face, eye cream and hand cream. She really like the hand cream. You had a trio for the face, eye and hand cream. Was hoping to purchase as Xmas gift.
I have been searching for the emu and aloe twin pack
or any emu and aloe soothing cream. Is SSC still making
it? Thanks
CalKidd,
The emu and aloe cream is no longer available.
Having proper nutritious diet and proper care is essential to get the good skin. Thanks for providing such a great products. This seems to be good to take care of skin.
Lifecell wrinkle cream
manjusha,
We thank you for your compliment about our having great products. Thanks for posting.
Is there anyway you can make the liquid RESVERATROL Cleansing Fusion more gel-like. It is so watery that I waste more than I use.. Thanks:)
mary4635,
We will pass along your suggestion.
Thank you.
I am new to the Serious Skin Care line. I am trying the Replicate and Renew w/bonus Creamerum. I also purchased the Light Fraxion. With all of this on my face (I only use the Creamerum 3x a week as stated), I really don’t need another moisturizer on top. Can I mix a little sunscreen in w/the R&R cream? I do not think that any of the products I mentioned above have suncreen in it. Also, if I use the sunscreen, will that infere w/the Light Fraxion? Am I suppose to be using all at once?
bunny66,
You can apply your sunscreen over the R&R cream if you wish. And you can (and we suggest you should)apply SPF cream over your Light Fraxion. Thanks for your post.
Jennifer & Friends, Want to start by saying I absolutely love sooo many of your products and won’t be without the my Supermel C products, A-Force, C Extreme Results . . . the list is long. I esp. love the Beauty Books, which I, like so many SSC users, collect. In the next BBook could you possibly include the new Creamerum in a full size so we can try it for a bit longer than a month before deciding if we want to switch from our old standby? Again, thanks for such a great produce line!
jewelshops,
We thank you for loving so many of our products. We do think that you will notice significant change in your skin using the month’s size of the Creamerum Evolve (our trial users did see significant improvement in an even shorter time frame), but we will pass along your suggestion. Thanks for your post.
Hi Jennifer,
I watch you all the time, but I am not sure what I should use for my skin. I am 37 and starting to see some wrinkes around my eyes. I still (for some reason) breakout if I use too heavy of products. Do you have a recomendation for me?
Thanks :0)
I had the same sort of skin as you describe until just recently (hit fifty and . . .) Anyway, I found the C line was fabulous and C Extreme Results especially. That said, only the Olive Oil products could be called “heavy” and none of SSC’s serums or face care is “greasy.” I almost completely stopped breaking out at all when I switched to it from a much more expensive dept. store line. Oh, and you might like a few of the Continuously Clear products, too.
julies74, You might also consider our Vitamin A products.
Hi Jennifer! Love your products, keep up the great work! Enjoyed watching you this weekend, just had to tell you that I love your hair cut, love the bangs, they make you look like you are in your 20’s again! Would love for you to sell a kit made up of only your three cleansers (A, C,and Glycolic) in the large 16 oz. size and nothing else. I love to rotate your products and go through the cleansers quicker than the serums and creams.
tmm1,
How sweet – thank you for the nice comopliment about the haircut! Thanks for your suggestion about the cleanser kit, will pass it along.
I love, love, love..A-Defiance 4 million IU A-Cream XR, the cream and the serum. It is not available at the present? When will these products be available??
Send me two next time. My face can’t wait! Hurry, please.
Yes, Please. I agree! TY Jennifer. Also, thank you for showing tonight how you put the concealer on. I was going to call in and ask you. Then I saw you were going to show it. YIPPIE! And you showed us your concealer tips. Another YIPPIE!!
Thanks SSC.
Love you,
Me
yagtmi07,
Glad that you enjoyed the concealer applicaiton tips on air. Thanks for watching.
lifesgood1,
We have had many similar requests for the new A products, and are passing them along. Thanks for your post.
Hi Jennifer,
What is the active bleaching ingredient of SkinCandescene double-strength targeted brightening pen?
why is Light Fraxion on back order when I am on auto-ship? Also I recently bought the A-Primer. Which goes on first? Light Fraxion or the A-Primer. Thank you in advance for your answers.
Lee3oh,
The Light Fraxion would go on first. Please contact HSN customer service about your auto-ship.
Why is Light Fraxion on back order until Janauary 2012? I have it on auto ship and I was due to receive my order 9/7 but received an email stating it is on backorder. THANKS!
mary4635,
Please contact HSN auto-ship customer service regarding your order.
Hope it’s OK to be a little off topic, but I have been trying to find out when SSC will be back on HSN. Also really want to know if you’ll be offering a new set of A-Defiance / A-Force products. I prefer sets that cover all the skin care needs: serum, face cream, eye cream, etc. in one kit if at all possible. Anything like that coming up?
SSC back on Sept. 16 – Sept. 18.
Check out item #145-390. New and AWESOME! I’ve ordered mine.
Wow, ask and just like magic, exactly what I was looking for. Thanks so much for identifying this new package. I just ordered, and it’s just in time for me before I run out of the skin care products I love.
HI SERIOUS SKIN CARE! THE COLORS OF THE SEASON A/S WHAT WILL BE IN THE NEW FALL SHIPMENT THAT IS SCHEDULED TO SHIP ON 10/25/2011???
ALSO…I AM STILL WAITING FOR A LIGHT/MEDIUM PINK-UNDERTONE SHADE OF THE BELLA ROSE MINERAL FOUNDATION??? I HAVE TO USE bare Minerals Fairly Medium (C20)…BUT BELLA ROSE IS FAR SUPERIOR, I WISH SSC ADDED A SIMILAR SHADE…YOU COULD CALL THEM THE BELLA-ROSE-TONES!!!
Catwoman,
That is a cute idea. We currently just offer it in the four shades, but will pass along your request. The Promineral fall colors include vivid ruby, scarlett and autumn. These are colors especially chosen to wear with your new fall fashions. Hope you enjoy!
I really do like Firm-a-face very much and fear that too many aging women fully expected to look 20 years younger. I get compliments from my husband, my sister, who twice asked me if I was losing weight’ and from total strangers. I am fixing to buy another tube!!!
KelleyJ,
That is so great about the compliments. With the upcoming sale you are picking a perfect time to stock up.
