How to use Good Molecules Niacinamide Brightening Toner

[@tanyaamanyaa]

Thank you so much for these videos! I really appreciate it. ❤

[@Wendy-zl8kv]

Thank you!! I’ve missed you! I’ve been working so much! I’ll have to get caught up on videos. I love your plant also! It’s so pretty 💚

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

Hello Wendy 🙂 How are you doing? I mainly invested my time in creating short videos last month to reach a broader audience. So not much to catch up on, only a few new videos. Do you have a worker shortage in your area? Or is that not a problem? Here where I live, businesses really struggle to find workers. 🙁 The plant is not "real"; it should cover up the cables and stuff under the heater (or boiler, or whatever you call it 😉), but it also makes it look alive. 🙂 Thanks.

[@Wendy-zl8kv]

Well the plant is beautiful and doing a fine job 😂! We do have a worker shortage also here. I’m blessed also bc truck drivers are always needed. I’m glad you are doing well

When you swipe the cotton pad and it’s dirty when you tone? What should you do? I wash my face for 1 minute with my cleanser and I also double cleanse with a balm cleanser also

[@itsiyiade]

Also just to add in a guy and you’ve helped me for the past few years on knowledge about skincare and how to use them, this channel is truly a blessing

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

If that's truly the case, it means that you did not remove the cleanser from your skin properly. In such a situation, you need to cleanse better :) If you're not already doing this, consider using a soft, clean, damp microfiber washcloth, as suggested in my videos. It works well. Alternatively, you could take a shower and clean everything thoroughly. I shower daily, especially in the evening, as it can be much easier.

[@itsiyiade]

@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet Okay Thankyou, I normally strayed away from the microfibres cloth as I was scared it would pick up bacteria, are there any you would recommend that are reusable? How often do you wash them?

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

@@itsiyiade Oh no, that's not an issue. Just ensure you use a clean one whenever you do that. Regarding your question, typically it is one per application. I've bought about 10 myself. Generally, they're very affordable. Once I use one, I put it into the laundry basket. Then, when I wash my regular clothes, I include them so they're clean and ready for next use. Try looking for 'makeup removing washcloths'. However, if you tell me where you live, I might be able to find a similar product in your area. This way, you'll know exactly what to buy.

Hello Melissa, can you please tell me if i can use this toner followed by a niacinamide moisturiser and followed by a 20% glycolic acid cream ?

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

Hey! :) Yes, that's fine.

[@merinjoseph1415]

Hey Melissa Is it necessary to use BHA? Can I use niacinamide only for pores and acne marks?

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

I think they work well in combination, but honestly, I really do not know how much Niacinamide is doing. For me, the BHA does a much better job, even in fading acne marks.

[@itsiyiade]

With the damp microfibre cloth? How many times do you use it before you wash it again? I’ve been using them since you recommended and I have 3 and I swap them every 3 days but when I use a cotton or there is still a bit of dirt? I use a balm cleaner first then face wash then use the damp cloth then toner then a treatment

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

I essentially use each one just once, which is why I have so many. After I wash my face with it, I put it in the laundry basket. I only use them in the morning. In the evening, I always shower and don't use them then. However, can you show me this on Telegram?

Hey beautiful! Have you tried Catrice HD liquid coverage foundation? We have the same skin color and I am curious about your shade if you use it. 💕

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

Hey! :) No, I haven't tried that foundation. I'm currently still using my Kryolan Digital Complex Foundation🥰

Does argireline in long term cause skin sagging .for smile lines how many months to use argireline to see result . Which is best retinol or argireline for smile line and crow feet and lines under eyes for 20 years old . Can I use argireline only concerned area like smile lines .

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

There is no evidence to suggest that Argireline causes skin sagging. In fact, some studies have shown that Argireline can help improve the appearance of sagging skin by reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Still a Retinol/Retinal/Retinoid works better!

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

There is no scientific evidence to suggest that skincare ingredients cause facial hair growth. Facial hair growth is primarily determined by genetics and hormone levels, particularly the male hormone testosterone. Skincare ingredients, when used as directed, should not have any impact on hormone levels or hair growth. However, some skincare products may contain ingredients that can cause skin irritation or inflammation, which could potentially affect the hair follicles in the skin. For example, overuse of certain exfoliants or abrasive scrubs could lead to irritation and inflammation, which may affect hair growth.

Can you kindly tell me if niacinamide in toner or serum works best for brightening? I have dry sensitive skin i bought yuja niacin kit in that kit only toner works for me.

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

Hey! :) Are you referring to Good Molecules products? In what sense do you have sensitive skin? For how long have you been using that kit and only the toner? What else do you use? What are your skin concerns?

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

@@nawazbhatti86 What cleanser and moisturizer do you use? If the skin is/gets thinner, it's normal to see your veins. However, you may want to look into an AHA Exfoliant (Glycolic, or Lactic Acid) to gently exfoliate the skin as well as look into a hydrating serum :)

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

Hey! :) Are you new to all those products or just to the brightening toner? For how long have you been using it? What's your skin type? Do you usually get acne? Also, if you have fungal acne, I recommend seeing a doctor to get the right treatments.

@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet No I've been into skincare for more than 2 years now. the only new addition to my routine was the brightening toner. my skin type is oily and acne-prone. it's sensitive too. my acne's gone for now but there are marks and dark spots so i tried using this toner. and i used it for 4-5 days but when i saw i was breaking out bad i stopped using it. and the breakout stopped too :(( but all the reviews are so good i just dont understand why it's not suiting me

Hi! I’m planning to buy GM’s Niacinamide, but I am torn between nia toner or nia serum, which is better?

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

The serum contains a much higher percentage of the active ingredient, but the toner also has other beneficial ingredients for skin brightening. So, it ultimately depends on your specific skin concerns and what you want to target.

[@angelicajoycemasdo3354]

[@moIeypie]

Hi Melissa, could you help me out? I’ve been trying to clear up my acne scars. In the morning i wash my face and use Hyaluronic acid and Niacinamide followed up with moisturizer and sunscreen. And before bed I wash my face and use glycolic acid, niacinamide, and alpha arbutin then some moisturizer. I also have salicylic acid but not sure where and when to use it. Am i using the correct products to treat my acne scars and are they in the right order ?

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

Technically yes, but from my experience a retinol/retinal/retinoid works better. And you could use the Salicylic Acid when not using Glycolic Acid. So alternate days. Pm1: Clean face Glycolic Acid Niacinamide Alpha Arbutin Moisturizer Pm2: Clean face Salicylic Acid Niacinamide Alpha Arbutin Moisturizer

[@moIeypie]

@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet Thank you so much!!! I also have retinol should i use it on Pm2?

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

@@moIeypie In that case, it would be best to stick to one exfoliant (for acne scars - AHA; like Glycolic Acid) and alternate between your AHA exfoliant and Retinol in the evening. See here: Can I use Glycolic Acid and Retinol Together: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pnjFkI2qeKaeldU
