I don't know much about serums, but I bought one on a whim about a month ago and I just LOVE it. It says it has DMAE and MSM in it, but I don't actually have any idea what these things are. I like the way it feels on my face, but I just want to make sure these things are beneficial. Any info would be much appreciated! Thank ladies =)

DMAE stands for Dimethylaminoethanol. The research that's out there is limited and appears to be only for those who take it as an oral supplement. Claims to help mental alertness etc...In skin care DMAE claims to help protect the cell membrane, and keeping cells intact. Studies are inconclusive. MSM stands for Methyl Sulphonyl Methane, which is a natural for of sulphur, one of the essential minerals crucial to life and the regeneration of cells. can benefit all skin types and ages. It is known to have been highly effective in the treatment of conditions including acne, eczema and psoriasis, as well as sensitive, and problematic skin, and helps keep skin healthy and strong to guard against premature ageing and skin damage.
