How to Build A Custom Skincare Routine Under $50 With Good Molecules + Tips on Layering Serums

[@mirelbaysal2428]

Layering ingredients properly is SO CONFUSING! Who else wishes brands/stores gave more guidance? Thanks guys for the video!,,

[@amberficke8387]

Fully agree! Beauty Within is very helpful and I also found this girls video on the proper order informative too! kzbin.info/www/bejne/b5_WiJenfqtnqpo

[@mirelbaysal2428]

Amber FICKE thank you! I am going to check that out!!!

[@mirelbaysal2428]

sk thank you so much for taking the time to write that out! I definitely have struggled with proper order in the past but thankfully looked into pH to better understand order! I realize my question was vague but I meant more in terms of what ingredients to avoid layering like aha/bha, retinol, vit c, etc. Seems like there are lots of different arguments and opinions and myths... 🤔🥴🤯

[@RuffledEagle]

I bought the Good Molecules set & it came with a concoction/time guide like an AM PM routine 😊

[@Benginafantaisie]

I’ve seen people say Cleanser & Sunscreen/moisturizer And at night... Cleanser Toner Serum/oil

[@b.cherish1266]

Personally, I love Good Molecules! I just started using some of their products for about two weeks and I'm surprised on how fast yet gentle their products are. The Cleansing Balm is great and emulsifies very well! I have been using their Discoloration serum twice daily and the Vit C Booster once a week and I am freakin shook my dudes. My friends and mom are complementing my skin as of recently, my PIH scars are fading so quickly! Guys please don't sleep in this brand, this is literally perfecting my skin by the days!! I'm trying to put everyone I know on them lol

How would you compare this with the Ordinary?

Interesting question!

[@MrsStinnnsfire]

Well, The Ordinary doesn't put a lot of money into marketing/ sponsoring posts and they were sponsored by Good Molecules in this video... so I would say a comparison would be biased

I purchased 5 of their products (cleansing balm, brightening toner, daily brightening serum, discoloration correcting serum, and ultra hydrating facial oil) to add to my routine and my hyperpigmentation is fading and my dry skin is so hydrated and moisturized. Thanks for the video because adding those products I have solidified my routine😍. I even have my friend hooked on the toner. She thought her skin didn't take Niacinamide well due to a couple breakouts from other products that had it but she loves the brightening toner.

Now it’s soooo much clearer, no more cysts and I’m just left with dark spots to fade. I’m so happy and excited that I can move my face without it hurting. Getting educated about skin care was one of my favorite (and most worth it!) things I did this summer.

[@aliganderson]

How can we tell if our skin barrier is compromised?? Also, is it ok to use an AHA toner followed by a BHA serum??

[@kaiitsang]

Broken skin barrier is most notably when your skincare products with or without actives cause stinging when applied to the skin. The skin will also find it extremely tough to maintain moisture on the outer layer of the skin even when you provide many layers of hydration. It is ok to use aha and bha together but it depends if your skin is sensitive prone or also how well your skin has been used to acids. Just pay attention to your skin and how it feels after both acids. If it's not right then take a step away from the acids for a few days and continue when your ready :)

[@aliganderson]

@@kaiitsang thank you!

[@damariseliza5526]

KaiTSANGASONG hi! I’m so so new to skincare and read this comment and this is so me! My skin never feels moisturized or looks like it is even after I use a great one. Any guidance on what I need to do to help skin barrier? Or what I should use? Help!

[@kaiitsang]

@@damariseliza5526 hello! Well do you use any strong actives or prescriptions like tretinoin on your face currently? If not then maybe you have dehydrated skin and not damaged skin barrier. Damaged skin barrier is most prominently from overwashing the face, over exfoliating the face and also sun damage. You want to provide both moisture and hydration to your skin to repair broken skin barrier. That means using a hydrating toner beforehand or even applying your moisturiser to damp skin to lock in the moisture. Using an occlusive like aquaphor or cerave healing ointment over your moisturiser can further help lock in moisture to your skin. Ingredients to look out that are known for repairing or soothing are: aloe vera, ceramides, niacinimide, cholesterol, fatty acids, snail mucin, panthenol, centella assietica to name a few. Even on dehydrated skin this routine will be beneficial for you. Hope this helps. Look up skincareaddiction on Reddit for a plethora of knowledge on skincare. Honestly a lot of stuff in the market doesn't function as marketed and is overhyped until you begin to educate yourself :)

[@damariseliza5526]

Hi loves ❤️ wanted to ask if we could mix Niacinamide with retinol or chemical exfoliator

[@inayatjain2973]

From what I’ve read you can because unlike vitamin c, niacinimide isn’t as reactive and it’s more stable so it can be used in tandem with other products. I use the good molecules serum every morning with vitamin c and every night with the Paula’s choice BHA liquid. If you need more info try googling it and look for good articles. I think Paula’s choice has ingredient charts and articles that might help. Hope this helped!

[@aphr0d]

Suha Hasnat niacinimide is a HOLY GRAIL. I bought the niacinimide booster from Paula’s Choice and I add it to everything and my greasy skin issues are gone (including inflamed breakouts) cuz my pores are smaller- so excess gunk gets trapped in them! I loooooove love love it

[@BeautyWithin]

Some formulations are different, we're just referring to the squalane oil in this line designed to be used towards the end of the routine, or with a moisturizer. To be safe you can read the directions on the back of your packaging for specific directions for that particular product to be safe! 😊

Is there an order to apply/layer serums? Like brightening first, then the other. Or it can be any order? Then do we wait a few seconds before applying the next serum or just put everything at once?

[@BeautyWithin]

Typically anything with vitamin C is effective at a lower pH level, which is why these types of serums are applied first, and also it's why they tend to tingle a little more. Vitamin C is a popular ingredient in brightening serums, so you can look out for that! Hope it helps! 😊
