Good day! I'm from the Philippines, the ordinary was introduced by my sister in law. I use the same product as well as I do the routine you did in this video. Its been like 1yr and how many months since I used the product. It really helped my skin look brighter and less breakouts also it even makes the scar look less visible. ☺️ Thank you for this information and the video about fake and what not differences help me a lot in comparing.It really is difficult to buy an original product. ☺️

@MelissaVanDijkOfficial 3 жыл бұрын

Yes, that's fine! How often you should exfoliate depends on your skin type and skin concerns. Some people do well exfoliating with AHA or BHA twice a day, whereas others find that once a day or every other day is a perfect balance. Test to see what works best for your skin. It’s fine to use both types of exfoliants (AHA and BHA) as part of your skin care routine - you can use them at the same time, alternate days of usage, or use one in the morning and one at night, depending on your preference.

Hey! :) Please do not use Glycolic Acid and Buffet + Copper Peptides in the same routine, keep them separate. Buffet + Copper Peptides (and all the other Ordinary Peptide serums) conflict with AHA and BHA (exfoliating acids) and Vitamin C. So you can use Buffet + Copper Peptides and Niacinamide in the same routine and/or Glycolic Acid and Niacinamide.

@@nnayaf And what are your results? Yes, 😞 But what you can do is looking for an alternative, you may wish to buy a cleanser with Salicylic Acid in it. What I would recommend is using the Salicylic Mask twice a week. And probably wait until the solution it's back in stock. Or you need to buy the one from Paula's Choice, but that's just crazy expensive, and I think it's not worth it. But I would rather wait until the Ordinary Salicylic Acid Solution is back in stock, and like I said, to use the mask as an alternative.

Hello John, Technically it would help if you did not use the AHA (Glycolic Acid) with your retinol serum, as this can lead to irritation. Usually, it is fine initially, but your skin can become sensitive after a while. So my advice is to alternate days. Example: Monday: Cleanse Glycolic Acid Moisturizer suitable for your normal to dry skin (No retinol, no Exfoliating acids) e.g. Paula's Choice Omega + Moisturizer Tuesday Cleanse Olay Regenerist retinol 24-night moisturizer Wednesday: Cleanse Glycolic Acid Moisturizer suitable for your normal to dry skin (No retinol, no Exfoliating acids) e.g. Paula's Choice Omega + Moisturizer Etc. of course, you need to adjust the frequency accordingly to the changing needs of your skin, but that would be a great start :)

No, all I'm saying is that I recommend not using your Glycolic Acid and Retinol Moisturizer in the same routine. Alternate between them in your evening routine. Use a non-Retinol moisturizer after your Glycolic Acid such as Paula's Choice Omega moisturizer, however, this can also be a different one. Glycolic Acid helps to loosen the dead skin cells on the surface of the skin while Retinol helps to speed up the cell turnover and also leads to a 'sort of' exfoliating part, but they work differently.

AHAs are also recommended for oily skin, blackheads and large pores...

@MelissaVanDijkOfficial Жыл бұрын

No, they are not. They only work on the surface of the skin, so they will not be very effective for controlling oiliness or reducing the appearance of enlarged pores unless there is a significant buildup of dead skin cells. Unfortunately, they are also not effective for blackheads that are already present since they cannot penetrate deeply enough to have an impact. However, it should be noted that there is no proper testing available to confirm their effectiveness in this regard.

How Many Times A Week Should You Exfoliate: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/l7qEgJyptd2nmp8.html If you have real scars, the topical products cannot help you; you need to see a doctor.

Avoid using glycolic acid and salicylic acid in the same routine. Use both in the evening but on different days, and monitor the frequency to avoid or reduce over-exfoliation. Use niacinamide in the morning. Additionally, pay attention to your diet to reduce the chances of acne returning. Avoid consuming too much added sugar, processed food, and fast food. Also, be aware of any food intolerances, such as soy, milk, bread (gluten), eggs, and chicken.

@MelissaVanDijkOfficial 3 жыл бұрын

Hey :) Use your moisturiser before applying Azelaic Acid! The rest of your routine looks good! :) Keep in mind: How often you can exfoliate your skin with Glycolic Acid depends on your skin concerns and tolerance. Some people can do this daily whereas others prefer to do this only 2-3 times per week. Start slowly, see how it goes and based on that adjust the frequency of it! :)

Hi there! Your videos are so helpful, I’ve been getting more and more into skincare and these describe everything great! I have a question, I got both the glycolic acid toner and the lactic acid 10% + HA (both the Ordinary brand), should I rotate between them nightly/every couple of days, or just stick to one?

@MelissaVanDijkOfficial 3 жыл бұрын

Hey! :) Both are exfoliating acids. You may just want to stick to one for a while before switching or alternating with the other. This way, you can see which one your skin prefers most and what works the best for you. I recommend starting with using it 2-3 times per week for some time before increasing its frequency.

@MelissaVanDijkOfficial 2 жыл бұрын

🤔 Please, do not do that routine if you have sensitive skin. Glycolic Acid and Lactic Acid are not recommended for sensitive skin since they have small molecules that can easily penetrate the skin, leading to stinging and burning. Sometimes Hyaluronic Acid can cause issues too for sensitive skin. And Niacinamide 10% is generally okay. What are you trying to target with the routine? And is your only concern sensitive skin 🤔

@MelissaVanDijkOfficial 3 жыл бұрын

When do you get that burning? After Glycolic Acid or Niacinamide? If you have the SA Renewing Cleanser, it may be best not to use that one when using Glycolic Acid in the same routine since both will exfoliate your skin. Some people can use them together, whereas others may find this combination too strong. Or it may be Glycolic Acid. If that one alone burns on your skin, it may be too strong/ you might be better off with Salicylic Acid (BHA) instead of or like the Ordinary Mandelic Acid.

It depends on what you do during the day. If you have a lot of sun exposure, then a higher SPF factor is always better. However, if you just spend brief periods outside, then SPF 20 or 30 is more than enough. Personally, I generally only use SPF 20 or 30, but it really depends a lot on your lifestyle. Therefore, you need to adjust accordingly.

Hey again😊 AM Routine: - Cleanse - Niacinamide - EUK - (Optional) Moisturiser - SPF Keep in mind that the conflicts of EUK are those: Do not use with highly acidic treatments, Pure Vitamin C (EAA/LAA), and Buffet + Copper Peptides 1%. - So do not use it in the same routine as Glycolic Acid. PM Routine: - Cleanse - Glycolic Acid - Rose Hip Seed Oil - (Optional) Moisturiser The general rule of thumb for order of application is: 1. Water-based serums 2. Anhydrous Solutions and Oil Formulations 3. Lotions & Creams & suspensions Important: If you have more than one water-based serum, you can apply based on the priority of your concern (the product that targets the most important concern should go first). It’s recommended using no more than 3 serum formulations in a single routine for optimal skin penetration. About 2-3 drops of each serum and 1 pea-sized amount of creams should be enough for the full face and neck. Use a "patting" application method, as opposed to "rubbing." Always apply sunscreen when you are exposed to the sun!! How often you should exfoliate depends on your skin type and skin concerns. Some people do well exfoliating with AHA or BHA twice a day, whereas others find that once a day or every other day is a perfect balance. Test to see what works best for your skin.

hello, can i use cerave foaming cleanser, the ordinary glycolic acid, the ordinary niacinamide +zinc and the ordinary rosehip oil at the same time? is it good for my oily skin?

Hey :) If you haven't bought the products yet, I recommend getting Argan Oil instead since that one can help to regulate your sebum :) But other than that, yes you can use them in the same routine :)

Hey, I brought these and do them in this order: Cerave SA cleanser “Buffet” niacinamide hyaluronic acid Moisture I was also wondering if I can use glycolic acid toner, and salicylic acid that exfoliates in this routine. Also, what spf do you recommend?

Are you new to acids (AHA and BHA)? If so, this is what I recommend: If you want to incorporate leave-on exfoliators (other acids like AHA or BHA), I always recommend using a gentle/neutral cleanser that doesn't include those acids so that you can add a leave-on exfoliator in the routine without worrying it being too strong/harsh or over-exfoliating the skin. And since you are already using the Cerave SA Cleanser which already includes Salicylic Acid (BHA), I do not recommend using another exfoliator. However, if you are not new to those acids: How often you should exfoliate depends on your skin type and skin concerns. Some people do well exfoliating with AHA or BHA twice a day, whereas others find that once a day or every other day is a perfect balance. Test to see what works best for your skin. It’s fine to use both types of exfoliants (AHA and BHA) as part of your skin care routine - you can use them at the same time, alternate days of usage, or use one in the morning and one at night, depending on your preference. Currently, I'm really liking the La Roche Posay ANTHELIOS ULTRA-LIGHT INVISIBLE FLUID SPF30
