My skin always feels irritated when using serum by itself before using moisturizer but Lately I’ve been mixing and it’s a world of a difference. My skin feels so much better and no irritation.

A tip....if you want to avoid "any" product getting in to your eyes just use a petrolatum based ointment or plain vaseline around your entire area... the same around and on your lips...remember...vaseline or petrolatum products lock moisture and also protect!!!

Yes, you can mix Lactic Acid with your body moisturiser. However, I would always mix it fresh (in the palm of your hand) and then apply it to the different body parts. How much Lactic Acid you are going to use depends on how much moisturiser you use. Try with 5 drops every time you mix it and see how it goes, if you want to use more, try with more. There isn't really a specific guide😅

I was thinking to use my face peeling serum on the legs, but legs are such a wide area to cover evenly. Then I thought about mixing it with a lotion to make it easier to apply (even if the percentage of the peeling solution will be decreased).

I'm really interested in cutting down the steps in my skincare routine. CeraVe has a facial moisturiser that includes niacinamide, but you pay more for a 50ml tube of this than for a 236ml bottle of the regular CeraVe moisturiser, which doesn't contain niacinamide. Is it ok to pour 30ml of an 10% niacinamide 1% zinc serum in with the the moisturiser and shake it up, so that I effectively have my own bottled moisturiser with niacinamide?

Hi melissa! i really appreciate all of your advises there re very helpful, i have a question about the video where you reviewed the ordinary salicylic acid serum: some girl said in the comments that she mixes it with her moisturizer and you told her not to do so because that will raise the ph of the serum, and here you re saying that we can mix bha with a moisturizer so i dont really know what to do, also what is exactly bad about raising the ph is it about the serum not being effective?
@MelissaVanDijkOfficial
@MelissaVanDijkOfficial Жыл бұрын
yes, but at that time, I did not know that Salicylic Acid also works at a higher pH.😔 So, if you do not tolerate it well, mix it with your moisturizer or use a formulation with a higher pH to adjust your skin to it slowly.

@@newcityboiii Well, there is always a chance that it can irritate the skin. However, when added to a moisturizer, which typically has a higher pH, the chances of causing irritation are less likely, though it may be less effective. But it also depends on the type of vitamin C you are using and your personal skin tolerance. If you tell me the products you use, I may be able to give you a more informed reply. 😉

You can mix it with your moisturizer. However, if you prefer to layer them, follow this sequence: first, use the cleanser and then pat your skin dry. Next, apply the SA serum and wait a couple of minutes. After that, apply niacinamide and wait another minute. Finally, use the hyaluronic acid moisturizer.

I came across your channel earlier, and i have used the following products because of that: niaciamide 10% + Zink 1%, Lactic Acids 5% +HA, Hyaluronic Acid 2% + HA and Amino Acids + B5. My skin has improved so much, but now the problem is that these products are often out of stock. Therefore i want to switch to vitamine c type of stuff. I know this conflicts with what i am currently using. My question is, what would you advice me to do in this switch? I mainly struggle with rosea/red skin but those recommended products are always out of stock in my country. Therefore i would like to switch to vitamine C.

Hey, 🙂 what about getting the products from another brand 🤔? Maybe The Inkey List or Facetheory? Or best would be Paula's Choice but that's a bit more expensive. The best Vitamin C product that I have tried from The Ordinary is the Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate, but it's also out of stock 😞 I like to use Paula'S Choice Vitamin C 15 Booster. This would also be my recommendation.

Deciem may even produce them so they should be very similar to the Ordinary. 🙂 Generally, I recommend going with Paula's Choice. I already tried those products intensively, and they do work very well! 🙂 Or just wait until The Ordinary is back in stock, and yes it may be a great idea to look for other retailers.

Hi Melissa I have a different question. I read in the ordinary's website that it's discuraged to use the product Ascorbic Acid 8% + Alpha Arbutin 2% along with water based products in the same routine because vitamin c tends to loose efficacy when in contact with water. I don't understand if I can use my moisturiser because, of course, it contains water. Maybe it's a dumb question but I'm really confused 😂
@MelissaVanDijkOfficial
@MelissaVanDijkOfficial 3 жыл бұрын
I think that this means that you should not mix it with such formulations, or probably the formulation itself. However, based on my experience using a water-based serum before or a moisturizer after will not lead to any conflict. But this product is a real troublemaker, and it can stay on the skin for a more extended period. So it may be best to use it on it's own. I'm not particularly eager to use it in combination with a moisturizer. But it would be best if you do not combine it with products containing Niacinamide, Peptides, Direct Acids, Retinoids, or EUK 134 0.1%.

I use a sunscreen but it causes pills when rubbed in too much. I started mixing the sunscreen with only one drop of the ordinary niacinamide serum, and the sunscreen doesn’t create pills anymore. Is this okay to do? Or will it affect the work of the sunscreen?
@MelissaVanDijkOfficial
@MelissaVanDijkOfficial 3 жыл бұрын
Theoretically, it can dilute the sunscreen, and the full protection may not be given anymore. The pilling happens because formulations do not go well together or because of other products you have used before sitting on top of the skin. For example, if you would apply 4-5drops of Niacinamide to your face, it can sit on top and cause pilling. But sometimes it's just oils + silicon and water formulations. But I do not recommend mixing it, and I would instead change the sunscreen or Niacinamide serum.

Hi Melissa! I got one question, about the ordinary euk134. I really like it, it’s irritation free for me. Can I layer my moisturizer right on top euk...? (When still wet) Or can i also mix the euk into my moisturizer. I have the feeling that euk134 needs to be sunk in to do its job.. but if I do that my moisturizer is way more gloopy/greasy to apply since it needs an hydrant. (Plus I use much more then) I hope that I’m clear. Thank you in advance! Your videos and advices are great! ♥️💖

Hello Julia, Once EUK feels dry on the skin, you can use your moisturizer right after. It usually takes about 30seconds to 1minute. If it takes longer, you have probably used too much serum. You can also mix EUK with your moisturizer. For that, you need to find the right amount suitable for your skin needs. I would say about 1 pea-sized amount of moisturizer, and 2-3 drops should be enough for your whole face and neck :) You can't really do anything wrong when only using these 2 products since they do not conflict. So test it to see what works best for you 😃

@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial Allright, thanks a lot! I feel more comfortable now mixing it/ trying some stuff out ☺️ I think I meant that when using moisturiser on dry skin, it takes a lot more moisturiser to cover my face, and it gets kinda gloopy. I'll see what I can do

Ah yes, so just use it on damp skin :) That may help. But yes, just try it. That's really the key. As long as they do not conflict, it does not really matter. 😉

Hi. Can i mix my vitamin c serum with hyaluronic acid gel based moisturizer? I have oily skin.

Yes, that's fine! :) However, if your skin tolerates the Vitamin C serum on its own, you do not need to mix it with your moisturiser. And you may just want to use without a moisturiser at all. Just don't forget SPF during the day or use it in the evening instead.

So I just bought a niacinamide 5 percent serum. I have a really sensitive and acne prone skin so can I mix 1 to 2 drops in my hyaluronic moisturizer because I don't want to apply it directly on my skin for atleast 2 weeks.

@@lifewidnidz Have you tried mixing it with your moisturiser and then use it under the eyes? It may be a bit too strong for your eye area to handle and therefore you need to dilute it with a moisturiser. Also, the Caffeine Solution can be drying on the skin and therefore you see wrinkles around the eyes.
