You can use niacinamide with retinol, but you should be cautious about the amounts and concentrations to avoid skin irritation.

Yes, you can use niacinamide and retinol together. In fact, using them in combination can be beneficial for the skin. Niacinamide is a form of vitamin B3 that has been shown to improve the skin's barrier function, reduce redness and inflammation, and improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Retinol is a form of vitamin A that has been shown to increase skin cell turnover and improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation. When using niacinamide and retinol together, it's recommended to apply them at different times of the day, such as using retinol at night and niacinamide in the morning. It's also a good idea to start slowly, using each product every other night, and gradually increasing the frequency as your skin adjusts. This can help reduce the risk of irritation, which is a common side effect of retinol. It's always a good idea to talk to a dermatologist or skincare professional before starting a new skincare routine to determine the best products and regimen for your specific skin type and concerns.

Your text was generated by "Openai" which is just a language model. It does not look at the ingredients individually but only generates paragraphs of text. For medical/skincare advice, it can really be a bad thing, and if you do not understand what you are talking about, it does more harm than good. In this case, you need to consider the formulation for layering and the potency of the product, and therefore, only the last sentence is beneficial here "It's always a good idea to talk to a dermatologist or skincare professional before starting a new skincare routine to determine the best products and regimen for your specific skin type and concerns."

Hello hiya, Thanks for this super lovely comment! 😃 For the "glass skin", you just need to add a lot of hydration and exfoliate the skin regularly; that makes it so shiny, but you can only achieve it temporarily. And you also need to have beautiful skin in the first place, which most of us do not have. 😕 Anyway, I am happy that I could help you, and I wish you and your mom all the best! 🥰

It can help to get them back to normal. No, there isn't much else you can use. Retinol and Niacinamide is the best option. The only "upgrade" you can do is using medical strength Retinoids, which you can only get on prescription.

@@momscookingasmr3312 Okay I just wanted to know if it's not purging or another reaction. I assume that it is because they now come faster to the surface and therefore they are more visible :) Retinol increases cell turnover meaning your skin is regenerating more quickly (It takes only 25 days instead of 30 days +/- that's just an example) Therefore, everything happens a bit faster. So when using it ongoing, they will fade more quickly. No need to worry. Just make sure that you do not overdo it in the beginning with the product since it can lead to irritation (dryness, redness, burning) give it time!:)

Hello Saira, Use The Ordinary Squalane Cleanser Follow with CeraVe Foaming Cleanser Pixi Retinol Toner or Salicylic Acid Serum (it just layers better, but the retinol is not an issue here) Hyaluronic serum or The Ordinary Niacinamide The Ordinary Moisturiser The main reason for this is the layering; if you use so many products in a routine, chances are very high that the ingredients cannot penetrate the skin well (that's at least my experience). I always recommend using only 1-2 serums per routine.

Hi Melissa, What if my work is on graveyard shift? When will I use Retinol % in squalane? because I've read an article saying that skincare products works best when you're asleep? Is this true? "During sleep, your skin's blood flow increases, and the organ rebuilds its collagen and repairs damage from UV exposure, reducing wrinkles and age spots." So when is the best time to use retinol and how often..? you said niacinamide can use everyday day and night.... Thanks!
@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet
@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet 3 жыл бұрын
Well, when we sleep, the body regenerates, so we get new energy, it repairs cells etc. But not sure if that counts for skincare products. So let's assume that you are in your bedroom; the skin is usually not exposed to any environmental damage, and therefore it does need as much protection as when being outside. However, when thinking about it could make sense because you support it with certain products such as retinol. It can regenerate even faster, and therefore, it may have better protection during the day. Not sure; I haven't read anything about that yet. And the main reason why you should use retinol in the evening is that it is sensitive to light because it renews the skin; the cells underneath are more sensitive to the sun, which need additional protection during the day. And you can watch the other video for the frequency and how you can do it. Edit: was it the following article? www.healthline.com/health/beauty-skin-care/beauty-sleep#How-sleep-affects-your-skin if so do not think about it too much ;) Since most are just optimized for SEO. "SEO stands for “search engine optimization.” In simple terms, it means the process of improving your site to increase its visibility for relevant searches. "

You need to use those products for more than a month since Tretinoin does not work that fast. So, you need to give it more time.

Awesome video and in depth explanation as always from You, thank you for that ♥️ Now, since no one has asked, I wonder, what about people who uses Bha? For an instance, I use Paula's Choice 2% BHA liquid exfoliant followed by Neutrogena hydro boost moisturizer. I have deeper skin tone therefore my hyper pigmentation is definitely an issue for me. Since I'm still not totally convinced to be using retinol, can I use the BHA with Niacinamide??? If yes, how can I include it in my skincare routine? Another question is between Niacinamide, Retinol and Vitamin C, which helps with hyper pigment and helps in resurfacing the skin better??? I do have textured skin, pores and even scars from acne. In this case, do I need to include BHA, Retinol & Niacinamide?? Or would BHA & Niacinamide alone be enough for a start off?? And thank you in advance.
@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet
@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet 3 жыл бұрын
Hey! :) You can use BHA and Niacinamide in the same routine and Niacinamide and Retinol/Retinoid. That's fine. However, using BHA and Retinol together isn't recommended since it can lead to dryness and possibly irritation. If you are suffering from red acne marks, I recommend Niacinamide. However, if you have dark brown spots, I recommend looking for Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid) and/or maybe Tranexamic Acid. Cerave's Resurfacing Retinol serum has also Niacinamide in it and a low strength Retinol. This may be an option if you want to have the two in one but still a gentle combination. Or look at Adapalene (Differin) - a Retinoid. I use it myself, and I think it works great for dark spots as my skin renews itself reasonably quickly, which helps to fade acne marks quickly. As for real acne scars, I recommend seeing a dermatologist and ask for the best treatment accordingly to your acne scars.

Hey! :) It would be ideal to use a non-exfoliating acid cleanser when using Retinol to avoid irritation. Still, your skin may be able to tolerate it. You do not need to use a moisturizer if you have oily skin. Instead, you can use a hydrating toner, essence or serum as those help to hydrate the skin without feeling to heavy or greasy :) See here for a frequency guide for your Retinol serum: Can I use Retinol Every Night - with Frequency Guide: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iKSzgmyujJt2j9k

Yes, this can work. However, if you are new to Tretinoin, use Niacinamide in the AM and Tretinoin in the PM.

See here: Can I Use Salicylic Acid (BHA) With Retinol?: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mYTdmIyOqJKWatk Regarding the peeling solution, you need to test it, I use it now every two weeks, but it depends on the other product you are using during the week.

If you're not using another Salicylic Acid serum or any other exfoliant, then yes. Keep in mind that BHA equals Salicylic Acid, and you are already using another serum with 2%!

Are you able to get a Benzoyl Peroxide cleanser? If so, I suggest using that one to wash your face. That should help you. How to use PanOxyl 4% Benzoyl Peroxide Acne Creamy Wash: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rp-9mnpurq92grs

Those are all treatments, not cures. Your acne will always come back (it may become less, but it does not stop it completely), unless you know what's causing your acne and you can change it.
