And I think I've been up too long because when I first read the thread title I didn't see 'serum', I saw something else and went 'wtf?'

So did I!!!

I thought, "damn the org is getting KINKY!"

I need to buy one. I forget what it's called.

Boots Protect & Perfect Intense (or the old non-intense one sometimes )

Nope. I use Retin-A and a good moisturizer.

Yes - in fact, the OH Truth Serum is a favourite. There's a moisturiser in the range now too, actually..

How does Retin-A work?

I like the serum when i apply it at night, but if i use it in the daytime it looks greasy

Protect & Perfect is silky smooth. I'd definitely recommend it. I'd never used it but cashed in on the frenzy over it in the UK when it sold out and we had loads out here in Thailand that we sold on eBay and I decided to keep one for myself. After that I've always asked for some for xmas and birthdays

It's like getting a mini-peel every night.

That's the pimple cream isn't it? But ppl use it for regular skincare. Or am I thinking of something else?

People use it for acne, yes. But it's also a very powerful antioxidant and wrinkle fighter.

You know all those OTC anti-aging lotions/creams that contain retinol? Retin-A is the prescription strength.

I remember the one. Comes in 0.1% and 0.05%? I think I used to sell that online a few years back. They're all OTC here.

It comes in .1, .05, and .025 (which is what I use). Still prescription only in the States.

It's weird here, they have rows of pharmacies next to the hospitals, especially Sirirat hospital where the king goes. You just go in and buy your Betnovate cream or Retin-A or whatever. You ask for it, pay your money and away you go. In our village I go to buy ketotifen and these sachets of electrolytes and they have boxes of tramadol by the counter.

Yeah, well...Coca-Cola used to contain cocaine and 7-Up used to contain lithium. What can I say?

One good thing is they have the 30 baht card here. My mother in law couldn't afford to go to hospital several times a month, get seen and get some meds, without it. She ends up paying maybe $10 a month for everything, and actually the taxis to go there are more expensive than anything else. My brother in law just had an operation on his heart and it didn't seem to be a problem as far as my in-laws paying for it so it must've been cheap. I can buy metformin in the village over the counter for my father-in-law too, for his diabetes.
