My Current Nighttime Skincare Routine for Anti-Aging & Melasma! | Susan Yara

[@bluejay9241]

Susan!!!! I know you’ve sworn off tretinoin, but I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend you try Altreno. I too get irritated with generic tretinoin and even Apostrophe and Curology’s tretinoin. But Altreno is some kind of magical tretinoin that doesn’t irritate me. It’s actually so moisturizing too!!

[@Mixedmakeup]

A few people have said this to me! Will consider it, but not during winter when my skin is more dry.

[@HaydeeSophia]

I'm glad I saw your comment, I will give it a try in the spring time. I will still purchase Susan's Retinal and in my neck and decolletage area as I am able to tolerate it mix in with naturium peptide moisturizer and it's given me great results.

[@HaydeeSophia]

When I'm not using naturium overnight cream I'm using the peptide moisturizer then I use a tiny amount of Naturium Retylnaldahyde and then I go in the naturium lip balm to keep lips hydrated throughout the night. Susan I am so pleased with the results of using your products. I can basically use any foundation even though I am 50 years old because my skin is a smooth canvas. I've not had any surgical cosmetic intervention but I do up my vitamin K2, vitamin D game and magnesium glycinate as recommended by Doctor Anil Rajani as it helps to strengthen the facial skeletal structure of face. I like Irwin Natural supplements even though they're a bit pricey. I take Irwin Naturals Mega D3 & K2 + Tumeric Extract. Your products are fantastic! ❤

[@CandiceJones91]

My Oura ring tells me that red light can help regulate your circadian rhythms! So that’s probably why you feel relaxed using it. I’m using that to justify buying a nice red light mask when I get my bonus next year 😂

[@Mixedmakeup]

Totally worth it!! It’s nice.

[@caseyanne967]

The Kombucha Essence sounds wonderful. I haven't tried the Retinol Complex Cream, I've been using the Retinaldehyde .10% and loving it. All the Naturium products I've bought so far have been great, with no irritation.

[@Mixedmakeup]

If you’re using the retinaldehyde, stick with that!

[@DCSquirrel]

I would just refill that Tatcha balm container with another brand of cleansing balm; that container with the disc is so handy.

[@cdanieldance]

I live for the ceramide cream. Nothing out there with such beautiful texture that sinks in beautiful

[@Mixedmakeup]

It’s so nice right? Every time I stop using it and then go back, I think, “Why did I stop?!”

[@Lirelivres]

I see you using oils before your red light, I’ve always heard not to use any kind of oils because the light doesn’t penetrate your skin. I too get irritation from tretinoin and my holy grail to calm redness an irritation immediately, seriously, immediately is the aveeno for extra dry skin, I can’t live without it.

[@donna7505]

I just did my consult to get that hydroquinone from apostrophe. Hopefully I get better results with my melasma than the ordinary azelaic acid cream. Thank you for your video, it has a lot of beneficial information ❤

[@manhac7541]

How often you use the p50 toner and when mostly ?😊

[@cathypavich678]

I have just started following you and learning. I so appreciate your knowledge and honesty.

[@tofflondon]

I love the Tatcha Cleansing Balm. The product itself is just a nice balm but it's fun to use.The blue shade, packaging & coin just make a good sensorial experience.

[@Gaga_Stars]

The P50 Lotion is my HG and so special because it's a low PH exfolianting product which is rare to find

[@Mixedmakeup]

Most exfoliants with AHAs are low pH.

[@cnahanee4]

I am Canadian and I don’t go to the US very often, but when I do - I go to target asap to buy some naturium products! Can’t wait to finally try the retinaldehyde I bought today :D

[@Mixedmakeup]

❤❤

[@heatherparker9820]

Your eyebrows look great. Keep them dark. It looks really great on you.

[@Mixedmakeup]

Thank you!

[@haleymoon657]

I bought the LED mask a while ago but shortly after found out I was pregnant and haven’t been using it because I was scared it would flare my Melasma more! It’s good to see someone who also struggles with it using it. I’m due any day so I’ll be excited to start using it 😅

[@angiesplaylist23]

Red light doesn't flare melasma but infrared light can

[@Maggie_Mayhem]

I just ordered that Dr Ceuracle essence. It looks very similar to the Byroe Black Tea essence that I've been using and love at a much better price.

[@LucianaTelles]

I thought that you shouldn't use hydroquinone (a retinoid) with another retinoid (Naturium Retinol Complex Cream). Is it ok to have 2 retinoids in the same routine? And my observation of your routine is that you really focus on hydration at every step, even on the cleanser... My face would be dripping in oil... 😄

[@synthalpaca5207]

I like when you incorporate one or two sponsored products in your routine and talk about the brand overall. I am tired of seeing these influencers using every product of the sponsor brand in the same routine (like they use even retinol in the am routine and spf in the pm routine) making it so obvious that this is not their actual routine. I know its their duty to show sponsored products but content creators nowadays cant even make a decent practical routine using sponsored products

[@redalienate]

You are right!

[@griseldabenitez593]

Your cleansing balm is excellent!

[@mariposamarilla]

I bought 2 bottles of your sunscreen Naturium and really enjoyed it. It feels great on and it is really moisturizing. Thanks for the video. 😊

[@YOUAreTheSecretToLife]

Are you referring to the pink glowy one?

[@mariposamarilla]

@@YOUAreTheSecretToLife uv reflect antioxidant SPF 50.

[@bajanbreezy]

Love the Naturium retinol cream.

[@KameSquidSS4]

Do you still use the Nuface toning device? I was thinking of getting it with the red light attachment instead of a led mask but I wasn’t sure if it works as well. I’ve also been seeing a bunch of devices all over the internet recently like the Medicube wands and I was wondering what your thoughts on those are?

[@BlessedMomfmTexas]

LADIES!! IM 43 AND I NEED SOMETHING FOR FINE LINE / WRINKLES, AND texture of my skin. And i have sun spots. I need help ladies!?? Appreciate you so much. Also do all LED lights work like you would go into an office?

[@jenlyynguyen]

Can you use the red light mask after your routine or does it have to be used before?

[@lovelylily369]

You shouldn’t use it on top of retinol or other actives but also if you were to use it on top of other products it would just rub them off

[@simplytitanium7919]

ahhhh i get peri oral dermatitis too thanks for that tip !!!

[@바배리]

My favortite is Dr.ceuracle kombucha essence!!

[@jenilahir8946]

Hi Susan i have mini holes on my face i am not taking about pores its mini hole i don't have much knowledge about it but if have know anything about it please suggest me some products and bites of information to Also i love watching😍 your video because i am just like you skincare obsesse😍 i find it to be very therapeutic 💜

[@tojin]

I've been waiting for your skincare routine!

[@Mixedmakeup]

I realized is had been a while!

[@janevalentinenyc]

Was expecting some facial massage or micro current-do you still do that and how often?

[@brodyquint1]

Susan, your videos are so helpful, thank you! How do you feel the omnilux led mask compares to Current body? It's hard for me to decide between the two.

[@Mixedmakeup]

I think they’re very similar and you’ll like either one. The biggest difference is the straps. I also like that current body has more clinicals and testing that they share.

[@brodyquint1]

Thanks for your opinion! 💐❤@@Mixedmakeup

[@rukiyatware1260]

Hi Susan, i've watched this video over and over and love the advice so much. How long would you say you stay on 'hydroquinone'? I use the Obagi one and have monthly laser/chemical peels. Thank you!

[@Mixedmakeup]

I stay on it the whole time I’m in a cycle of getting lasers or chemical peels done (usually 3-4 months). Then I take a break.

[@melnlove]

I have been missing your skin care routine so much

[@Mixedmakeup]

So sorry! The second half of this year has been so busy with work.

[@kennethAmos8929]

Loooove Dr. Ceuracle 😊😊

[@sophiashaalan841]

Love the cardigan!! Where is it from

[@MakeupbyJane]

I thought it was a robe. I noticed she doesn’t respond to any comments.

[@Fraylovesskincare]

More of these please.

[@celina7560]

Where can I buy the kombucha essence. They sell it on Amazon but it doesn't actually come from the Dr. Ceracule store. How do I know if I'm actually getting the real product or something else. What's your store of choice for k beauty products and are they trust worthy to buy online???

[@nicolochampion708]

Does the Current body led just red light or it also has blue light for acne?

[@iam6053]

I heard from a Dr that Retinol and Tertinoin should be used together bc Tertinoin is highly degradable.

[@DallasNatureLover]

Have you ever had a chemical peel and/or laser from a dermatologist for melanoma? If so, how effective are these dermatologist office treatments compared to topical products?

[@Mixedmakeup]

Hi! For melasma, I have done a few laser treatments and one chemical peel. It’s definitely worth it because they can do more intense treatments than you can do at home. I consider the at-home products to be maintenance and prevention.

[@DallasNatureLover]

@@Mixedmakeup Thank you!

[@mahaliajackson1821]

Did you put on the latic acid toner with Retinol? I thought that is not allowed 🤔

[@chael360]

that toner has low concentration, but I feel like the whole routine is so overwhelming.

[@Mixedmakeup]

It’s not strong, but I also know what my skin can handle!

[@TBeniHenny]

I use the same LED mask and I do it without essence cause I heard it blocks some of the light I just go right in after my face is washed. Can I start putting essence on then go do the LED? I have dry sensitive skin that’s even more tight once I’m done the LED.

[@lisagoldman287]

I heard the led could stimulate melasma???

[@dragonfly0212]

I heard the same thing. I'm afraid to use mine.

[@sofiaalejandra405]

I’m very confused😭 can I use p50 biologique recherche and in the same routine use retinoids?????

[@candyyybaby3]

So is the Multi-Calm Cream Cleanser going to be back in stock any time soon? It’s been sold out on Naturium’s site for months, and at Target for a little while now as well. I’ve emailed Naturium’s customer service multiple times about it and never received a response.

[@Mixedmakeup]

We’ll have it back eventually

[@melnlove]

I want to know what the third thing that you use was the bolique.

[@tamyris68]

Hi Susan! Where are your face/hand towels from?! The ones right behind you lol

[@sushiismystyle881]

Can you please review Biossance's new cream? I would like to hear your insight on the ingredient ectoin.

[@RupaPSA]

Is 10 minutes enough? I know the Celluma says about 30/40ish minutes

[@mvwkout5714]

Is red light okay for those of us with brown skin?

[@Mixedmakeup]

Yes!

[@radugabrieldinca7208]

Omg i got the kombucha essence after seeing you use it in so many of your videos, and it’s a total game changer! It’s almost moisturizing, one night i ran out of my cerave face cream so i just applied two layers of this, one before and one after my serums, and my skin did not feel dry even the next morning! I’m currently trying to find out more about peptides, I know that they’re all quite different and there’s not a lot of studies on some of them, but I would love to see a video from you talking about the ones you like most, especially considering all the info you have from doctors and formulators - which ones do you think are the worth investing in?

[@Skybutterfly21]

We have the same headband except mines pink lol

[@heatherengland7927]

Love watching your videos I am just wondering why you do not use more of your own brand?? I am from Canada and would love to pick it up in Canada. I have to cross the border to buy it and it’s very inconvenient. When are you going to start selling it here.

[@Mixedmakeup]

I’m constantly using my own brand, but also like trying other products and brands.

[@HangNguyen-ih8rf]

Jesus that’s a lot of strong active in 1 routine 🤯🤯🤯

[@rsg369]

Please do a hair Caren body care routine..🙏🏻

[@michelleallen5581]

I just got the kombucha essence and am loving it too! I had a question about the Naturium Multi peptide serum. I love the ingredients in it and am wondering if it can be used around the eye also instead of using a separate eye cream? Thank you for all your knowledge and information. I have learned a lot!

[@StoryOfThisGirlxx]

Hi! I have that serum and I use it around my eyes and I love it!

[@michelleallen5581]

@@StoryOfThisGirlxx That's perfect! Thank you so much for the reply. I really appreciate it. I'm super excited to try it!

[@Mixedmakeup]

Hi! We haven’t tested it for sensitivity around the eyes, so it’s up to you. I personally try products around my eyes because the ingredients being used are for the face in general and aren’t different from ingredients used in eye creams or serums.

[@michelleallen5581]

@@Mixedmakeup Thank you so much! I really appreciate the information.

[@sheenatran2600]

Hi Suzanne, can you tell us when you used the LED mask if you see your melasma dark or not. I am concerned about it. Thank you and Merry Christmas 😊

[@Mixedmakeup]

The Current Body doesn’t get too warm so it’s fine!

[@kendallstark4302]

Are you back on a retinoid?!? I thought you said you done with it! Glad you have reincorporated it 💙

[@DSCropper66]

She stopped trying to use tretinoin: prescription-strength retinoid.

[@Mixedmakeup]

I’ll never stop a retinoid! Just stopped the prescription strength because it’s too strong for me.

[@paulinahandzlik4262]

Can you use retinol and LED mask?

[@sunitabangla8737]

But in your last videos you said you stop using the hydroquinone or you just quit it.

[@Mixedmakeup]

I do! You can’t continuously use hydroquinone. You have to have occasional breaks from it, but I always start using it again when I’m getting laser treatments or chemical peels again. It’s great for prevention of hyperpigmentation.

[@kategoatley9075]

So, I just tried to order the cream cleanser (in Australia) and it says it’s been discontinued! Why, oh why, would you torture us by using a product that we can’t get? So sad:(

[@Mixedmakeup]

It’s not discontinued! But it won’t be back in stock until 2024.

[@michelledr111]

I thought the LED mask is supposed to be used on dry clean skin with nothing on it?

[@Mixedmakeup]

Just clean skin. Doesn’t have to be completely bare though. You don’t want a retinoid or your sunscreen on.

[@beautifulL52]

Okay... HOW are you getting that close to your eye without irritation!?!??! Everytime I even dab a little eye cream on, my eyes will start to water... Are we, as women, just ignoring the burn for beauty or is there a hack that I'm just not aware of???? Because Ive essentially just stopped using product around that area but that's not good because its the one area on my face that is starting to show some signs of aging....

[@dora876]

I slather my eyes with eye cream and have never had irritation! I use eye creams from it cosmetics and la roche posay. What brand are using?

[@DSCropper66]

Try just vaseline for a while to help the skin barrier repair. After a while, you should be able to use eye creams without irritation.

[@Mixedmakeup]

The burn isn’t normal! You probably have sensitized skin there.

[@nataliew1975]

I thought red light triggers Melasma because it produces heat. Am I mistaken?

[@marich4n]

Is naturium available in canada?

[@Juan92x]

DIDNT YOU SELL NATURIUM A WHILE AGO ? 🤔

[@basmaa9650]

I’m a little confused but definitely not judging… chemical exfoliant toner, LED, and retinol all in one skincare routine!!!

[@Mixedmakeup]

Power move! You just have to know what your skin can handle.

The acids you use are the culprit in why your nose is still red. Try to stay away from that area.

I’ve been avoiding that area! My skin is surprisingly not that sensitive to acids. It’s really retinoids that get me.

[@DSCropper66]

If your skin feels tight, you should try light toners or essence before the mask like Susan. I use the Hada Labo toner before the mask, and it's still fairly moist after the ten minutes. I also was worried that any product would interfere with the lights, but I think it's more that LED therapy studies use the light on bare skin. Therefore, following the same protocols as in the test is a good recommendation, but that doesn't mean using hydrating products beforehand reduces efficacy; it just hasn't been tested.

[@Mixedmakeup]

It’s fine! Don’t wear sunscreen or retinoids under your mask.

[@TBeniHenny]
