YOU ARE THE BEST!!!! So much love

[@iradukunda3699]

Thank you so much!

[@Heedy770]

This world really isn't made for the best of humanity. Brandon was such a pioneer and sincere soul. Too bad he was too good for this world. One can only hope just how many more revolutionary skincare products he would've introduced to us and made it accessible.

[@isobel64]

Amen. A visionary

[@bettylam5570]

Hands down this is THE most informative video on Niod, ever. Period. Love so many of their products and thank you for decoding for us! It's funny when I tried the HV, I couldn't help but think "this is not really the effect that Renee goes for in her moisturizers...." LOL!

[@gothamista]

Omg I LOVE this hahahaha!!! It's the opposite of a glazed donut but I don't doubt it works well!

[@bettylam5570]

@@gothamista LOLOL Yes the HV really does its job very well! It's just the non-dewy effect is not for me as well... Hehe. Take care!

[@sh3zzz]

Ahh glad you mentioned not using CAIS with l-ascorbic acid, that was going to be my first question. Thanks for this overview! ❤

[@dayrodriguez9619]

This has to be one of the absolute best skincare brand reviews I've ever seen on KZbin!

[@gothamista]

Aww thank you so much!!

[@angelanazim9583]

Can you please recommend 2 to 3 productz for 65 years old witb dry cheeks snd skme wrinkles from Niad.Thanks

[@axreason]

i hope you'll do a brand review of Stratia in the future! due to me living in Europe and their limited availability, i've never tried any of their products, but kind of want them all (except for their vitamin c, although i'm curious about it). also, indie brands need all the help they can get now a days. your reviews are always so helpful, and there really aren't any full brand reviews of Stratia on youtube yet.

[@Kat333ify]

Love this! Thank you, Renee! You're always a few steps ahead from outher youtubers. Niod has been around for awhile, and i love and use many of their products, but its not really talked about. Thats such a pity, thank you for fixing this issue and for providing so generous overview. :)

[@gothamista]

the most underrated brand and one of my all time favourites!

[@SP-bb4qg]

Thank you for this review. Deciem is a great company! Rest in Peace Brandon x

[@ajkbeauty0622]

Thank you so much for this brand review! I've been interested in trying NIOD but have found the site to be harder to navigate/fully grasp. This is the video I needed to put an order together. Thanks again! :)

[@gothamista]

You are so welcome! Hope you get some fabulous skin treats!

[@BriseisMusic]

Your skin is glowing! This must be my favorite brand review ever. Thank you for breaking everything down for us!

[@joannewongg]

You are so knowledgeable! I love your explanations! After watching this video, I realized I would love to see a video of skincare recommendations for each age group (Teens, 20's, 30's, etc). It's hard for me to know when I should start intensely using anti-aging, retinal, acids, etc.

[@oliviawarsek8017]

I have been debating making the jump from the Ordinary to NIOD for a couple days now (most of my products run out around the same time), and after this video I have fully committed! Despite being very into skincare, NIOD has always felt a bit too high-level for me, but this was a spectacular breakdown. Taking this as a sign from the universe to go for it:) thank you!

[@gothamista]

Haha, who are you to defy the universe??? I'm so happy to hear you found this helpful!!

[@lisalms5918]

The Fractionated Eye Contour Concentrate is wonderful. I got it first in the birthday set. It sinks right and and doesn’t migrate. I love it!

[@neha.joglekar]

Hi. So grateful that you try so many different products to give us honest reviews. Since you have tried so many over past years, can you please do a video with your staples, that you always repurchase and keep with you consistently, like tried, ,testing and keeping forever! Your the most favorite cleanser, toner, serum, moisturizer, sunscreen till now!

[@xuxu9815]

Your descirption of the cooper amino acid is on point. It's 100% match with how I feeled. I'd love you to share more skin routine!

[@hannm5984]

the lipid products looks very interesting. The color also looks very nice. Also, I'd like to try the asorbic acid. Thanks Rene!

[@CassieAfricanQueen]

People need to buy more NIOD. I hardly hear anyone talking about it.

[@GabbyJibblit]

When you mentioned highly reactive skin... 🙋🏻‍♀️ my skin gets so irritated and breaks out if I use products with Hyaluronic Acid and Niacinamide. It’s super unfortunate since my skin is both dehydrated and acne prone and those two seem like such well-loved ingredients!

[@gothamista]

Yes and for most people, they are great ingredients for soothing inflammation! So it's amazing to find formulas that take this into account!

[@squidy6637]

that sounds exactly like my skin, can i ask what you use for the dehydration? i have terminally dehydrated skin (probably partially from prescription retinol, but if i stop using it my acne is overwhelming) i can’t find anything to help the dehydration that doesn’t have HA and is effective, until NIOD but i really don’t have the money for it. so if you have any suggestions??

[@GabbyJibblit]

kfidjwh - I’ve found a Hyaluronic Acid and Niacinamide that don’t break me out! I use Medik8 Hydr8 (this is pricey) and Stratia Liquid Gold :)

[@suzannegiroux5614]

I have used a lot of products from the Ordinary which I quite liked. However I just was not comfortable ordering NIOD as I could not figure out what to buy. Your video really helped me and I will be able to make informed choices now.

[@gothamista]

So happy to hear this was helpful - I've been there too hence the 3 years to make this video!

[@stephaniep7562]

What an informative breakdown! I've been on the fence about quite a few of their products and you helped narrow down what i need. Just entered the contest too!!!

[@johnsonrojo3]

I always wanted to know more about every single product of NIOD and this is super helpful Renae! Thanks so much! Hope you are staying safe, physically and mentally healthy.

[@gothamista]

Thank you! Happy you found this helpful and you stay safe, healthy and sane too love!

[@sofielulu7452]

Renée you are the blueprint ❤️ thank you for this extremely informative and thorough video.

[@gothamista]

Thank YOU!!!

[@dontknowhim5128]

Can you please do a video on neck skincare, especially for lines/aging?

[@vaneeand]

You described the Sanskrit saponins perfectly. It is powerful! The texture is very unique and difficult to wash off with hard well water.

[@alicebancroft4454]

Best review of NIOD. I ordered the CAIL 1% this morning, and I can’t wait to add in other products. I could listen to you talk all day x

[@gothamista]

Aww thank you! I can't wait for you to try it Alice!

[@lissetteochoa4439]

Where did you order it? In there web site is out of stock 😕

[@peterjuliob.2136]

Thank you so much for the acne/oily skin recommendations 😍

[@janettekenos3674]

Like all your videos, Renee, this was so helpful. I have loved many of these products for years and rather than relying on pretty packaging and perfumy ingredients, these products are based on science and performance. With the added fact that it's a Canadian company and I don't have to pay crazy exchange rates and duties, makes them that much easier to use 💕

[@gingerbadjie9670]

Thank you Reneé . I love NIOD. And Deciem as a brand. It’s a great lasting legacy to Brandon. I find I got through the CAIL way faster than the CAIS though. And because of its cost, I’m staying with the CAIS. Hope you’re safe and well. Xox

[@gothamista]

Hi love! Absolutely, Brandon is particularly present in NIOD.

[@vilvile]

I said it and sustain: these reviews are comprehensive and informative. Super useful and entertaining. Thank you!

[@gothamista]

Thank you soooo much!! This means alot to me!

[@justinemarieabarro9406]

Renee! Thank you so much for all these educational videos about skincare products! I must say, whenever I watch your videos you emanate extreme elegance! You inspire me to take good care of my skin. I wish to be as elegant as you ❤️ Keep glowing!

[@skinquisitive6745]

Love this thorough, honest review! Thanks for helping me navigate the brand and figure out how products can fit into my routine 💖

[@UbuntuPhotography-m3q]

I would love to see how to incorporate an aray of Niod products into an actual AM/PM regimen and the order of using them in such regimens.

[@skygaz3r]

Niod is one of my favourite brands so when I was so excited! But at the same time I knew my wallet is in danger 😂 Thank you for making this video!

[@meganchesson7186]

I'm a bit late to the game with this brand but am trying CAIL now and seeing great results. This is exactly the video I was looking for...so helpful! Thanks 😘

[@gothamista]

It's never too late! happy you found this helpful!

[@robinsteele6044]

I use many of the products you reviewed, including CAIS. When I use the NIOD line I include Modulating Glucocides in my routine. Your review was very helpful and informative as to some of the NIOD products I've been wanting to try but haven't committed to purchasing because I wasn't sure how they worked or how it may benefit me. I already have so much of the NIOD line and there's only so many products you can put on your face in a day. Anyway, I noticed when you showed yourself applying the products you put a few drops on your hands and then pat the product into your face. I think I use too much product - generally I end up using 6 or 7 drops or whatever amount that is needed to cover every inch of my entire face and neck, if I happen to be using the product on my neck. What is the proper way to apply these products? How much should one use to get effective coverage? Thank you for reviewing these products and for your knowledge and dedication to skincare.

[@just-another-viewer123]

Was just looking for a niod brand review and here you are ❤

[@futuristfreak]

This is great!! I’ve been looking at the NIOD site trying to figure out what to get next. Thanks to you I have been using and loving the CAIL 1%. Thanks 🙏

[@gothamista]

I absolutely love that formula and get so happy to hear others loving it too!!

[@asass5436]

Haven’t tried NIOD products yet,but am intrigued by both CAIL and CAIS reviews and their benefits. Would love to try either!

[@melbygrace]

Niod!!! Love them! I like the new packaging for the FM. I have dry skin and really loved what this did for my pores. It is strong and you feel it. FECC is my holy grail. Combining it with the WishTrend eye butter is nice. I need to pull my survival 0 back out and use it. It has been in my fridge. I hadn’t thought to combine it with my sunscreen. Thanks for another informative video, Renee!

[@gothamista]

yes! FECC and the wishtrend eye butter is a glorious combo for me too! BTW, the FM and couple of other formulas have 2 packaging sizes - larger one in tubes and smaller in the jar!

[@chrislee6076]

Every time I look for CAIS and CAIL- its always out of stock! Ive been trying every week for the past several months. There is no notification for re-stock alerts. I have the CAIS in the smaller size but would like the larger as i am going through it pretty quickly and it was only like 3/4 full after mixing. Are there other places to buy this?

[@jayshrinikam19]

Register for their email notification. I was able to grab one due to the notification

[@jackiereid1310]

Renee - thank you so much for this video! I have ordered a few items that you described. Sadly the copper peptide is currently out of stock (version 2), but I look forward to trying everything else!

[@mirandajean8847]

Was so excited to see this pop up in my Instagram alerts! I've been wanting to try NIOD for ages now. I have upped my skincare game as I'm preparing for my wedding- Covid has my fiancee and I literally oceans apart and has postpone our engagement ceremony. With stubborn post acne scars and super dry skin, I'm finding it difficult to get my texture and pigment on point for the "bridal glow" I want.... All while combating stress pimples on my chin. So, this is SUPER helpful.... Not to mention, brought some love and light to my day ❤

[@lynnkristy1]

So want to try the copper amino isolate lipid 1%. I’d love to win but if not I’ll have to purchase.

[@goldenhour95]

I feel like the MV works better during the day to seal in your skin care and the velvety texture helps to make the skin look refined and blurred under minimal makeup and spf, that's the way I use it, don't know if decien would approve of my technic lol.

[@gothamista]

Haha! Yes - I can totally see this as a great primer! With skincare, you do you!

[@VENIKA]

What a great thorough review, will definitely keep Niod on my radar.

[@juliehutchison7968]

Great video, I have oily acne prone skin and LOVE HV in the morning as a moisturizer 😘

[@jessyca9833]

I would LOVE to hear more about the chemistry/science behind their ingredients since there is so much that I don't know about!

[@annaviolet5493]

Wow I had only heard about the NIID Photofluids before this. I have so many things I want to try now. Thanks so much for all of your insight. I wish the promotion you listed in the info box wasn’t just on Instagram since I recently deleted my account - but would love to hear what the outcomes are of the 10 different consultations. I might find a good routine to try out based on what people’s skin types are!

[@mrsdrhux]

Brilliant round of products I couldn’t afford to just buy on a whim. Thanks Renne xx

[@TitoDavies]

I've always always wanted to try Niod this review is soooo detailed and informative! Love it! ❤️

[@pirhan]

Thanks! You saved me a lot of money with some of the items that I was thinking of getting. I'll stick with my Survival 0 and others and maybe give CAIL a try. Cheers!

[@minxuanhe1340]

Not yet tried this brand but love the philosophy already, similar to the ordinary. Guess copper amino will be my entry.

[@skincareaddictmy375]

Always love your thorough reviews

[@gothamista]

HI love!! Great seeing you here!

[@shaliyapatel2338]

Love NIOD! MMHC is my ultimate favourite but would love to explore some of the other products

[@PinCushionQueen]

Hey, Renee, I’ve been diving back into Niod after initially trying the multi-molecular Hyaluronic acid, fractionated eye serum, the oil based cleanser, Sanskrit saponins (which I use regularly & love) & the copper amino isolate 1%, ; now I’m using the Survival 0 (wow, I’m impressed), the re:pigment for my melasma & the myrh clay for firming. I honestly want to try the whole brand so I pick up 3 at a time to slowly introduce into my regimen. I am watching this video again to refresh my memory as to what your thoughts were. Thanks for all of the vital information, as always you are pleasure to watch! By the way , did you use the neck catalyst on the lower half of the face as Deciem recommends, I’m super curious about that one. You didn’t mention the oil cleanser, not a fan? It doesn’t emulsify that’s for sure, however my skin appreciated it, especially over time, but not my fave within the brand to be totally frank. I’m wondering if you’ve tried the Photography fluid? Apologies for how long this comment is.

[@keitu90]

@gothamista please do a skin care routine that includes all of these products

[@angel33333333]

Rene do you have an anti aging skin care routine that you can post? Also does copper peptides lead to heavy metal toxicity?

[@kellylin2489]

Finally!! Been waiting for this

[@RealSky11]

Thank you for this! I have tried the CAIS and HA and love them. I have been trying a lot of things to find what can help after i was exposed to chloropicrin, which is a tear gas that Terminix used on the house next door, only they didn’t follow the proper protocol and I looked like phantom of the opera and felt even worse than I looked for 11 months, until I could move. It was unbelievable and debilitating. I ended up with very damaged skin around my eyes, dramatic hollows under my eyes and paper-thin skin all around my eyes. There’s a deep sudden drop off where the face meets the bones surrounding my eyes. You can see all the blood vessels underneath tiny layer of skin. Quite unacceptable appearance for a sales rep, as I try to get a new job after losing mine in January. So I have been trying all kinds of things in an attempt to help build the collagen and skin layers back up. Vicious circle... looking better will help with getting a job but need the job to look better. It’s crazy. So if you have any suggestions, I’m all ears. You gave me some ideas, but I welcome your input.

[@timetraveler_0]

Great review. Please display the name of the product at the bottom of the screen when you are talking about it. Makes it easier to navigate the video, special for bands like Ordinary and Niod.

[@asiff098]

I love your reviews so much!!! Thank YOU!!!

[@nicolej615]

I want to thank you! I was waiting for someone to fully explain Sanskrit Samponis...I bought it months ago and didn’t know where to place it in my cleanser two step process.

[@miaalonso6077]

Hi! This video is so informative and covers such an exciting brand! I was just wondering more specifically if Survival 0 could be used to treat melasma since you mention it helps correct environmental damage and if the multi-molecular hyaluronic complex could treat KP

[@noneofurbusiness5223]

What is a stable retinoid? You're only one that says can mix copper peptide w/retinoid; I'm intrigued.

[@kyliemcw9299]

THANK YOU!! this video is amazing!

[@LOLawliet7]

Great updated info , just at the right time before my next order !, thank you for sharing🌺🌺🌺😊

[@elizabethharris5151]

I love all the products that you reviewed on this video! Could you suggest a routine as far as what products to use what days as part of my nighttime routine. I’m 52 years old with rosacea on my cheeks but have very non-reactive skin usually. Just looking for lots of hydration better skin texture no fine lines and no rosacea ha ha

[@meaningoflifewithkavi]

But it is so pricey when compared to ordinary

[@fionayeoh6221]

Love NIOD, thanks for this review!

Love deciem products. Not tried anything from Niod :( thank you for this opportunity 💕

[@syc5674]

I would love to see your review on Cell Fusion C products! Always great videos!! 🧡 Thank you!

[@GO-sz1nv]

I wasn't scared of starting tretinoin because I trust MG with my skin.

[@gothamista]

That kind of confidence is goals!!! But yes!

[@theonlywestonn]

Hi there. First, I LOVE that you went through so many products. I am starting a new skin care journey and I currently am getting a cleanser, toner, MMHC2, serum and moisturizer. I will over time adjust and reduce, increase or keep the same amount of products. Just out of curiosity how many steps do you have in your personal routine? Your skin looks incredibly nourished and rich. I understand genetics play a factor as well but just curious.

[@catsreign55]

I love this!! I love the breakdown of the products and I’m incredibly excited for the giveaway

[@emzz8285]

Thanks for this video! Super interested in trying NIOD 🥰

[@lippielicious7090]

Pls do body treatments review/tips & tricks, esp about dark skin in knee, elbow, under arm, thight & butt

[@starrymilkshake]

Renee, interested to hear your thoughs/see your review on the brand Origins especially the Dr Weil sensitive skin line!

[@AlexDahl]

You know, I really don't think I agree with your HV review. It's worked great for me to keep my skin from getting dried out during winter. If you're someone like me who struggles with that, it's worth a try!

[@anshikakhandelwal_]

Thanks for such an informative video. Also, can you please review the Hylamide products from the Deciem and make a video of that ? :)

[@sabanayyar2463]

Plz make a video on collagen drink

[@shyyyyyyyful]

All the products sounds great!

[@d.m.uu.8776]

Hi Rene, you are looking great, after watching your older videos I noticed that your skin is much better now than 3 years ago, can I ask you did you laser your skin or did you only use creams or chemical peels to achieve your the light glow that you have now. thank you for educating and inspiring us, send you lots of good vibes and good energy from Germany, yours David

[@soniamarkes4927]

So helpful! Thank you for this

[@alexandrapastorekova3893]

Thank U, great video. I am starting with NIOD right now :)

[@corinneo5558]

Hi. Great video! Have you tried LVCE ? I love this cleanser. It is never talked about…

[@paulblatchford8740]

the CAIS IS SOOOOO GOOD.

[@damalulani]

Flavanoid Mud is a LOT stronger than Vivant for me. I can use Vivant daily no issue, never irritated by it, but Flavanoid Mud? Child, it tingled the bejesus out of my face the first time I used it, did get better with time though.

[@kinnimomo69]

Very informative and useful. A big thank you 😊
