I'm so glad you added that bit on the end directed toward teens and the fact that all they need is a good cleanser, moisturizer and sunscreen (unless they need a retinoid for acne, in addition). Don't make it complicated, kids. I blame tik tok. :( So many harmful skincare trends aimed towards our easily-manipulated teens. I only watch youtube, so I don't know what your presence is on tik tok - but I hope teens are watching you if you are there. Thank you.

I got the Glow Maker and the Night Renewer since they said those 2 are good together. Do they have a daytime moisturizer too? I would love to see more from you regarding that line, also can you recommend a good under eye patches I seen one on instagram that begins with a D DRMTLY something like that have you used those?

I've been using timeless for about a year and a half. I love it. Sometimes when I'm at Walmart, I get the Cereve vitamin c. It's alright but I don't like how it seems to feel sticky and it doesn't seem to dry enough for me to put on the next item I use in the morning. I found this in an article about the best serums for 2022. Has anyone tried Naturoum vitamin c serum? I was wondering if the 22%is too high?

@debbiewalker273 2 жыл бұрын

Hi Dr. Sugai, Glad you did a review on the Maelove Vit. C serum. I use their Moonlight Serum and really like it, just wish it wasn’t neon yellow ! One question for you. Would using the Moonlight Serum long term help lighten dark spots just as much as a Vit C serum would ? I realize they both do different things for the skin, but wish I could get those stubborn sun damage spots on my face to fade more. Probably should be using both, but I’m in NV, so not ordering any C online in the summer months. I’m afraid the extreme heat will oxidize it. Wish the company would ship their Vit. C with ice packs, but that wouldn’t be very cost effective for them to do. Thanks again for the review, and taking the time to try it out. ☺️☺️

@LovePatchSour Жыл бұрын

Hi doctor! I really hope you see this and reply! I've recently started investing in skincare products and bought this Maelove product, along with The Ordinary hyaluronic acid. However my question for you is, is it necessary to use both in my morning skincare routine if the vitamin c already contains HA? The moisturizer I use ALSO contains HA so I don't know if that's overload for my skin as it's dry and sensitive. Hopefully you can help me out! Thank you!

@lululee1653 Жыл бұрын

I’m Not the doctor but it’s overload ❤

@jenniferg3402 Жыл бұрын

Yeah. Of what I understand if your moisturizer has HA it could potentially dry out your skin more because it needs another barrier to lock it in. If not, the moisture in the air will pull from your skin and make it drier. 😢

@rosav.nieves2778 2 жыл бұрын

Mad Hippie is great!!! Would like to try this Maelove. Good question!!!

@LanguidAndBittersweet Жыл бұрын

A mini-review on effectiveness: I used the Mad Hippie Vitamin C serum for about three years; while it got rid of some rough skin and a tiny amount of hyperpigmentation, it didn't do much else. About six months ago I switched to Maelove Glow Serum and after a month I saw a significant increase in overall softness and a major decline in hyperpigmentation. If you're new toVitamin C or have very sensitive skin, the Mad Hippie can be a great, milder starter product, but for experienced users or folks without sensitive skin, the Maelove gets down to business. *Edited to remove errant punctuation.

Is it beneficial to still use a salicylic or glycolic acid to prep the skin for a Vitamin C serum? Or does the ferulic acid already do that?

@Tumorcoach Жыл бұрын

If I may add I would avoid using them because vitamin c is slightly acidic so when you prep with another acid it can cause irritation.

Hey doc I was suggesting to use a salicylic acid wash before using tretinoin. Salicylic acid and tretinoin shouldn’t be used together. But I find it’s not irritating at all. So if I use salicylic acid face wash once a day before tretinoin will it eliminate the efficacy of tretinoin?

These Vitamin C serums are still insanely overpriced. The ingredients aren't that expensive. 30 Dollars for, what, 30 ml? This is 1000 Dollars per liter! And the first ingredient is still water! The next highest ingredient is Ascorbic Acid at 15%, wich means ever ingredient after that is below 15%, probably well below. I can get 100g of pure Ascorbic Acid powder for 2 Euros (roughly equals 2 Dollars). 100g! This serum contains 15g per 100ml, sort og 5 g per bottle! That would be, like less then 20 Cents for the main active ingredient, Vitamin C. And this is calculating with the retail price. The company will be getting it for much less. I estimate that the production cost for this "serum" is less than 3 Dollars per bottle, including the bottle itself and the labelling. May be four, heck, let's say 5, including a nice box with nice print on it. They charge you 6 to 10 times their cost! That's a profit margin of 85-90%. Tell me that's not insane! Tell me that is not preying on people insecurities and fear of aging. Tell me that's not like snake oil salesmen. And do we need to talk about Skinceuticals? 169? That's up there with printer ink as the most expensive liquid. It's one tenth of the price of gold going by mass. Remember. The main ingredient is still purified water! And the next highest ingredient is less than 20 cents worth of Vit. C.!

@alexandras7405 Жыл бұрын

If you think it's expensive, don't buy it - no one is forcing you. It's not just an ingredient, it's the formula, and everything that goes into making it and getting it to your door. Buy your powder if you want. But yes, skinceuticals is a complete rip off (and a horrible brand). Maelove and naturium are quite decently priced though.

@stephanien6237 8 ай бұрын

As the commentor above me said: you are not paying for the raw ingredients but for the formulation that makes it *stable* and at the correct pH to be absorbed and effective on the skin (and to not oxidize and be useless over time).
