The 30-second answer
See-Lit has serums and products for each concern, and most are on offer at half price (EGP 239.5 instead of 479). For spots Vitamin C 10% at EGP 239.5 and the spot fluid at EGP 187.5, for oily skin the niacinamide serum at EGP 239.5, for dry skin the 3% hyaluronic serum at EGP 239.5, and for lines 1% retinol at EGP 239.5. The prices are offers that may end, so the final price is on the product page; and acids and retinol raise sun sensitivity, so use SPF 30 or higher sunscreen.

Ask a dermatologist or pharmacist if

- Your skin is sensitive or you have eczema, rosacea or active skin inflammation: ask before any acid or retinol.
- Severe redness, burning or extra peeling appears: stop the product and moisturise.
- A dark circle or swelling under one eye only, or persistent, marked circles: see a doctor (Cleveland Clinic).
- You will combine several actives (retinol, an exfoliant and vitamin C): one at a time at first.
- No studies compare these products, so choose by the page details and what your skin tolerates.
