Hi! Do you recommend this as the first step of double cleansing?? I have 3 different cerave cleansers and at some point they seem to be the same for me! They all are so good and I really can't decide which is the best for me!

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

I alternate depending on my needs. 🙂

Hi Dear, Can I use it with Ordinary Argireline and Matrixyl serum? Thank you 😊😊

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

Yes :)

This or cream to foam Please ?

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

I prefer this one over the Cream To Foam - but that's personal preference :)

[@mahamriazkhan1355]

Can i use this as mu first step of double cleansing followed by CeraVe Renewing SA cleanser. My skin is oily acne pron

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

This is a foaming cleanser with a bit of oil; it's not a 'full-on' oil cleanser if that's what you are referring to.

[@islaary2826]

I use this too before my gentle cleanser . I use it for double cleansing 🎉

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

Yes, this can work too! :) It's a great cleanser :)

How cleanse twice with the cleanser or as a second cleanser after oil base

[@ognjenlukic4418]

would u recommend this for removing sunscreen?

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

Yes, however, it isn't the best cleanser to use if you're trying to remove stubborn mineral sunscreen. For that, I recommend using an oil or balm cleanser :)

Hi melissa! Can i use another water based cleanser after this oil cleanser when I double cleanse at night or is it too much?

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

I think it is not needed. But technically you can do that, yes.

[@lihikornfeld8085]

@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet okay! And it won't over dry my skin, right?

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

@@lihikornfeld8085 What do you mean by that? If you're referring to double cleansing, it will depend on the cleansers you use. However, generally speaking, this cleanser is not intended for the classic double cleansing method. This method usually involves applying an oil or cleansing balm to dry skin, followed by a cleanser that targets specific skin concerns and types.

[@mojit27]

@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet so with this one you cannot use it as double cleansing? This on dry face, emulsify and rinse?

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

@@mojit27 I may work, however, since it's a foaming cleanser, it's probably best to use it on wet skin :)

hii!! i have a question is the smell of the cleanser usually like bubbles? (bubbles like the toy ones that you use to blow when you were a kid) kind of smell. i bought mine online and it has that smell. it also it kind of sticky and foams quickly even with no water just rubbing it foams immediately.

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

I do not have that cleanser anymore. However, it does contain an ingredient that gives it a sweeter scent :) Yes, some foaming formulations can also foam when not used with water; however, they are difficult to remove without the addition of water :)

[@minaa8960]

I thought it was an oil cleanser to remove makeup

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

Well, it can remove light sunscreen and/or makeup, but it doesn't work well to remove stubborn mineral sunscreen or water-proof makeup. For that, I recommend using a 'real' oil or balm cleanser.

hey melissa, your skins glowing and i love your videos!! Basically ive been wanting to ask someone if my skincare routine is good for me also my skin type is combo. oil cleanser: KOSE SOFTYMO Speedy Cleansing Oil water based cleanser: COSRX Low pH Good Morning Gel Cleanser serum: AXIS-Y Dark Spot Correcting Glow Serum exfoliate: I just once a week use the CeraVe SA Cleanser essence: COSRX Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence moisturizer: SoonJung 2x Barrier Intensive Cream sunscreen: Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun rice + Probiotics and differin cream at night plus im struggling with closed comedones and wanna get rid of them hopefully my new skincare helps. thank you:)

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

Hello Maheen, I think that is too much for the skin. My suggestion would be: AM: Clean face Apply essence and/or serum (if needed) Use sunscreen PM: Clean face Apply Differin gel Apply snail mucin or another lightweight, non-comedogenic moisturizer. The moisturizer you have will likely contribute to more closed comedones.

[@maheen3928]

@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet thank you so much!! ive been struggling with closed comedones for ages now :( also dont you think the moisturizer is good for my skin? i just bought it some days ago, any reccomendations for good moisturizers for combo skin to get rid of my closed comedones?

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

@@maheen3928 I personally wouldn't use a moisturizer at all. Just use something lightweight like a hydrating toner, essence or serum. Using a moisturizer can often feel to heavy/greasy on the skin and may cause more problems. Depending on your closed comedones, it's best to get them extracted.

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

Well, during the first days, it may just be an initial reaction. However, it could also mean that you do not tolerate an ingredient well, so it's impossible to tell without further testing.

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

Well, a bit of dry skin in colder climates is just normal, especially if you are new to it. The skin needs a bit of time to adjust to the weather changes. But the cleanser is very hydrating, and I think it's a good choice, yes.

Thank you so much! Have you tried the La Roche caring wash? May I ask how does this compare to the La roche caring wash ( I think it may be called Hydrating gentle facial cleanser in your country😊, it’s not the dermo milk) . The ingredients are : AQUA / WATER • GLYCERIN • PENTAERYTHRITYL TETRAETHYLHEXANOATE • PROPANEDIOL • AMMONIUM POLYACRYLOYLDIMETHYL TAURATE • POLYSORBATE 60 • CERAMIDE NP • NIACINAMIDE • SODIUM CHLORIDE • COCO-BETAINE • DISODIUM EDTA • CAPRYLYL GLYCOL • PANTHENOL • TOCOPHEROL . I do like it but sometimes feel my skin isn’t completely cleansed and the cerave is a lot cheaper! ☺️

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

I haven't tried that one. I'm in Europe, and I've noticed that La Roche-Posay offers different cleansers in the US compared to Europe. So far, I haven't found a trustworthy website where I can purchase them.

I want to use this cleanser at night becuase I’ve heard panoxyl Has Benzoyl peroxide ,which doesn’t do well with tretinoin. And was thinking that spacing them out would help because I’m using them hours apart, making it less likely for irritation. Then follow up with tretinoin in the night.

@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet ok thank you one last question. 👍

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

@@giannivideo7680 Yes, that is essentially how most people do it, so that the skin is not too overwhelmed. However, you may need to adjust the frequency of both, depending on your individual skin reaction. It's a great starting point, and you can see if that works well for you. For me personally, when using adapalene, I also do it in a similar way, but I sometimes space out a day or two when I feel that it becomes too irritating or sensitive.
