How to use The Ordinary Multi-Peptide + Copper Peptides 1%

[@Fany_ND]

Love your reminder about sensitive skin types ❤️❤️ Cause not everybody knows that peptides can trigger a mild inflammatory response and sometimes this is not well tolerated 🤷🏻‍♀️ Tysm for the video Melissa 💋🤍

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

Hmm, I've never heard about that particular aspect of peptide serums, but yes, technically, a mild inflammatory response or skin irritation can occur with any skincare ingredient. Still, this issue, especially with this serum and the eye serum, seems more common, so there might be something else in these formulations causing these sensitivities. I think it's either because people use too much of it, or they combine it with many other treatments, making them too potent, which then causes issues. So, the skin may be overwhelmed.

Thank you for your detailed demonstration and information. You literally my skincare guru

[@111-p4t]

I just got this yesterday. I was a little confused on how to combine it with the other ordinary products. Ty for breaking it down

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

Glad it was helpful!🥰

[@MissVanHelsing]

Hi Melissa 🙂 I always look you up first when using a new product. Could you please help me (again!)? I'm very curious and love learning from your videos. My questions, if I may ask and if you have time, is can I use Marine Hyalauronics from T.O. instead of hyalauronic acid prior to this peptide? Someone gave me a bottle of the MH today. Or, could I drop some regular T.O. HA in my palm, and spray thermale water on it to dilute it and make it less viscous? I find regular HA too sticky and thick, even a little. It seems to break me out and I don't know why. Or, could I use T.O. Saccharomyces Ferment 30% Milky Toner to hydrate beforehand? I use incidecoder (thats INCI DECODER) to pour over the ingredient lists, and am already wondering if the T.O.'s ingredients in both the MH and Milky Toner go against what you've mentioned even though they're marketed as hydrating. Thank you so much for educating us. Your skin is beautiful ❤, and I think we can all see how much work you put into your tutorials and download sheets. I recommend people visit your channel whenever I'm on another skin care short or channel, you deserve so many subscribers. 😊 Sorry for the long post.

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

Hey! :) Yes, you can use TO Marine Hyaluronics or their Milky Toner instead of Hyaluronic Acid-that's fine! :) However, please make sure not to apply your skincare products (except for your cleanser) to 'damp' skin. Ensure that each product fully absorbs into the skin before applying the next one, as applying too soon can lead to dryness or even sensitivities.

[@MissVanHelsing]

@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet thank you, thank you, so much for your reply! I appreciate your time and knowledge so much. Visiting a dermatologist is a huge luxury where I live, one that only very wealthy people can afford and even they will be put on a half a year long waiting list. It's interesting trying to learn more myself but OMG it's difficult researching skin care when you have no actual education to begin with 🥲 It can take hours and hours on just one product and then you notice an ingredient you need to go down another 3 hour rabbit hole on to understand a little more because you're not a chemist 😂 I keep trying though because of my difficult skin. You're the best! 🥰

Please give a review of simple brand especially their face washes /cleansers which one is best for oily or combination skin because there are many cleansers in this brand ..iam confused which one is suitable for my skin please give a review thanks

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

Honestly, it's difficult for me to get them, but also their formulations aren't that great. Therefore, I have not made an effort to buy more of them.

[@onlyscience28]

Thank you, Melissa, love peptide serums but unfortunately copper peptide irritates my skin. I use Matrixyl 3000 and argireline together in the morning and no irritation after those ❤ I have a question for you about the bands on your wrists, I usually end up all wet after washing my face and they seem like a good idea to prevent that. Where do you get them?

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

Yes, that's essentially what I just replied to in another comment. But this issue also happens often with their new eye serum, according to my comments. I also experienced it when I used it too often, so it might be another ingredient in these serums, or possibly the combination, or overuse. And I've had the same issues with water, although I've perfected the technique over the years, haha. 😂 I got mine on Amazon.de, but unfortunately, that particular set seems to be no longer available. 😞 It would be something like this: wristbrella.com/

Lots of ppl do said that it turns there face orange after few months. What should I do dear? I only follow your suggestions incase of skincare

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

I have never heard of that, and it has not happened to me either. However, it could potentially be due to interactions with other products. So, if people combine all sorts of things on their skin, many issues can arise, including discoloration, irritation, and sensitivities.

Can the Multi-Peptide + Copper Peptides 1% Serum pair with Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate Solution 20% in Vitamin F? I went to The Ordinary website and took a quiz and this is what they recommended. Before I order I want to ensure it's safe. Thank you

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

Yes, as it's a Vitamin C Derivative, in other words, it does not contain Ascorbic Acid itself.

Hey, I bought the cetaphil hydrating foaming cleanser that you recommended me, thanks for that 😊 But I also bought cerave hydrating cream to foam one, are they both the same and are they equally good? Can you tell me from your experience, which one you find more drying? Because I’ve read the ingredients from the cerave one, that it has salicylic acid and amino acids etc.

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

Hey! :) I prefer Cetaphil's Hydrating Foaming Cleanser over CeraVe's Cream to Foam Cleanser. However, try both and let me know which one works the best for you! :)

Hey there! Can I use copper peptide with tretinoin cream...I mean can I layer both of them in same evening routine

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

They have a similar function, which when used together may cause sensitivities. Therefore, it's best to use your Peptide Serum in the AM and Tretinoin in the PM or use both on alternate nights.

[@jasbirkaur9316]

Thank you 😊

Hi.. i have oily skin.. sebum plugs on chin. Tiny bumps and rough look on my forhead.. open pores & small acne scars . Can you recommend which ordinary products should i use?

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

Using a foaming cleanser, such as The Ordinary Glucoside Foaming Cleanser, may already be sufficient. However, you can also consider incorporating The Ordinary Salicylic Acid Solution and/or Niacinamide into your skincare routine.

[@sonalfonseka3680]

@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet thank you very much

[@dannyadvice]

Hey Melissa, sorry this is off topic, but can you recommend a moisturizing cream for dry and sensitive skin, but if possible to be more affordable (I'm 16 and my face has cleared up, but lately I've had red pimples again and the spots from them aren't going away again)

[@dannyadvice]

Btw This summer u recommended beauty of joseon hydrating cleansing gel and i still use it and it's unique thank you sm:)

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

I would still recommend the CeraVe Facial Moisturizing Lotion. I'm glad to hear that you like the cleansing gel; it's also one I use nearly daily unless I'm testing other products. It's fantastic. However, their moisturizers, especially the Beauty of Joseon Red Bean Water Gel, are also great. But, I think they might not be sufficient for your needs. Although, if you want to experiment, you could try it 😉.

[@dannyadvice]

well, I've been using cerave for very dry skin (even though mine is normal to dry) for almost two years, but many people say that this cream makes them break out, so I'm starting to wonder if I should change it. And what do you mean that they might not be sufficient for my needs?

[@dannyadvice]

@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet under " them: I meant beauty of joseon creams (I forgot to write it)

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

@@dannyadvice Well, if it works for you, then there's no need to change it. I mean, if you research skincare products and avoid using them because some people have experienced breakouts, then you might end up not using any skincare products at all. It really depends on your personal skin tolerance to the individual ingredients. So, essentially, watching reviews can be useless; that's why I also don't do it. As for the Beauty of Joseon Water Gel, as the name suggests, it's a gel. Usually, these are lightweight and often not moisturizing enough for dry skin because of their formulations and ingredients. But in your case, I would just continue using the CeraVe cream, especially if it works well for you.

[@Shiza415]

I am currently using Retinol 1% on alternate days and I am planning to shift on tretinoin.Can I use tretinoin on alternate days or there should be more gap? Waiting for ur response

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

I recommend using either your Retinol or Tretinoin, but not both, even though you do not want to use them on the same day. Keep the routine simple. How often you can use your Tretinoin depends on the strength and skin tolerance. Start with 2-3 times per week and increase the frequency over time if needed and tolerated.

[@Shiza415]

No I will quit retinol I am just asking that can I follow the same routine with tretinoin means on alternate days or should I use it less frequently ?

[@Shiza415]

Thank you for your response ❤️

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

​@@Shiza415 Yes, well, it depends on how your skin responds to your Tretinoin. So, you need to test it.

I'm using niod copper peptides. What can I use with copper peptides? I'm scared of mixing the wrong things and burning my face.

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

It's not that you burn your face, but rather that using too many different potent treatments is what causes the irritation. However, the same "conflicts" apply here as demonstrated in the video.

[@vijiprabhakaran4844]

U explain awesome

[@jhikimiki10]

What will happen if someone use date over skin care products? Does it make their complexion darker?

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

Well, all kinds of things could happen, especially if the products were not stored properly. For example, storage under very high temperature conditions, etc., can lead to issues. I believe improper storage, or serums going bad, is also why many people experience sensitivities or even discoloration if a serum has oxidized. Therefore, I would not recommend doing this.

[@TheLeif001]

Would be much better if the copper peptide to be much closer to the skin rather than other serums.

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

It depends on the serums; if they contain certain oils or silicones, then yes, it does matter. However, in this case, it does not matter.

[@mdontor7624]

Thanks 😊

What can be used for hyperpigmention with copper peptides ?

[@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet]

What kind of hyperpigmentation do you have? Alpha Arbutin, Vitamin C, Niacinamide, Retinol, or AHA Exfoliating Acids may help. However, depending on the severity of your hyperpigmentation or if you are dealing with melasma, I recommend seeing a dermatologist.

Can I use Q10 by timeless with copper peptide?

Yes, but it's not really necessary since the Multi-Peptide Serum already contains Matrixyl. Therefore, you could use just one of them, or use one in the morning and the other in the evening
