You guys have been asking and asking about how to use this product so I hope this review helps :) let me know if you will be giving it a try xx

[@kathleenjohnson7047]

does it last and entire year? I thought it lasted 6 months only. Please confirm and thanks for the alternate way of using this product!

[@CHRISGIBSONLIVE]

One more reason to love The Ordinary's products. This one is especially good - in fact I recommend most of the vitamins c formulas. Great video as usual! 😀

[@gina888warhol1]

Can I be honest . You look really good here the best I’d say out of all your videos. You don’t need those filter brows etc very handsome guy lille a Hugh Grant. I know that nots what this Chanel is about ,but I like to watch this channel.

The ph of NMF is 6.50 -7.0 and therefore is to high for Vit C mixing/absorption.

[@likethedrum]

Had no idea that vitamin c did all of this. I knew it was a good antioxidant but didn’t really know what that meant for the skin. Thanks for the info and I’m definitely going to have to pick some of this stuff up.

Hey hun, so glad you found the video on formating.. Vitamin c is honestly a miracle Ingredient, hope you enjoy ot of you try it xx

I love the l-ascorbic acid. I use it almost every morning with resveratrol and ferulic acid... I’m curious about trying a masque with it... after wiping the masque off, do you continue with your normal routine?

[@MadAboutSkin]

Hey Tom dont know how i managed to miss this message so sorry.. Yes you would just wipe it off and continue.. Make sure you do the mask before any other serum steps as you will be wiping them off too if you do them first xx

[@mrs.miawallace3414]

Hello! How much vitamin C do you mix with how much Resveratrol +Ferelic Acid? Like scoops and drops? Will it be okay to just mix a certain number of scoops for Vitamin C into a 30ml bottle of the Resveratrol + Ferulic?

[@tthibideau]

Hinam Pacs I mix about 3/4 of the little plastic spoon with 3 to 4 drops of the resveratrol and ferulic acid and then mix it in my hands. As far as I know they don’t recommend making a bottle of it ahead of time. Rob from Mad about Skin would be the better person to say why that is.

[@JustAnnadel]

I have already bought it 2 months ago, but never used. But now gonna use it on regular basis.

I bought this powder two days ago and used half a spoon the first night. Tonight I used one spoon with no ill effects. I assume that the lack of reaction is ok 🤷‍♀️

[@MadAboutSkin]

Hi hun, i think it will be fine but i would still be gentle with the amount used as you dont want to crete sensitivity... sending you lots of love xxxx

Hey Geraldine have you been using this long enough to have any feedback? I’m trying to figure out if it’s worth dedicating myself to for a few months :)

Very informative video, thank you! I have this product but I haven’t dedicated myself to it yet, you have definitely inspired me to do so. I’ve thought of sprinkling some of it in my body lotion, particularly around stretch marks. What are your thoughts on Vitamin C on the body? 💕

[@MadAboutSkin]

Hey hun thank you so much for watching.. It is perfectly fine to use on the body and will create a light exfoliation and help even out skin tone.. Have you tried it yet and what did you think? Xx

[@aminahussein8116]

How can I miss it with my cleanser or toner please

[@julia-ex7im]

what body lotion do you use??? apparantly the vitamin C powder needs to be paired with a moisturizer or serum that is either 4 pH or lower or else it will not work

[@AshleyKisner]

Such a great video!! Would you recommend this for combination skin?

[@aminsou6625]

Sold out in America rn. 😕 I bought cosmetic-grade Vit C on Amazon. Cheaper but grainer. The Ordinary's was a much better feeling.

[@MadAboutSkin]

Hey hun thank you so much for watching.. Its such a shame its sold out in so many places as its such a good product.. Cosmetic grade vit c will work just as well but as you say its not as smooth and finely milled xx

[@MadAboutSkin]

Haha xx

[@sexydoorframes]

I use different vitamin c for daytime use, but I use this once a week on vitamin c night! I also have retinol/glycolic etc nights too. So I dedicate my night routine for a specific skincare item type as the focus. The only reason I use it at night, because no matter what, it eventually goes brown on my skin esp my hairline. Maybe it's because I sleep for like 12 hours, I dunno. I've tried wearing it around the house with a tiny amount in and it still happens. So I'm too paranoid to wear it out of the house XD I look really grubby the morning after vitamin c night! I'm also pale as hell with no colour on my face and I don't use any type of self tanner so I don't want it staining my skin too much as my face won't match my neck XD. I think this is normal/i know why it happens, but maybe I have a bad batch as I don't see a lot of people talk about this. My liquid vitamin c don't do it. But as you are playing chemist with this, I can't be 100% sure of what strength I'm applying to my skin as maths was never my strong suit so that maybe why. But my skin is never sore nor do I feel any tingling when applying this product so it's deffo not too much for my skin. I just aim to have a smooth light milky liquid, no grainy texture. I wish I could use it daily but I can't risk it.

[@vanessamalik1102]

Hi Rob, In your opinion, would this product be safe for people with rosacea/sensitive combo skin? Thanks!

[@MadAboutSkin]

Hey hun I hope your well. Great question. In theory yes as vitamin C is perfectly safe with rosacea if used correctly and can help to strengthen the blood vessels which could cut down on some of the flushing associated with the condition. The only reservation I have is that people may mix it too strong and have a reaction which is why I would usually recommend a vitamin C specifically for people with rosacea which has been pre mixed. A good option would be the Avene A-Oxitive Défense Serum which is fantastic. You could use the 100% powder but you just need to use a super small amount and work your way up listening to your skin the whole time. Hope this helps xx

[@vanessamalik1102]

Thank you Rob, that's very helpful! I appreciate the Avene product recommendation and will try that first. It's a beautiful day here in Ottawa and your videos always put a smile on my face. Thanks again 😊

Hi, I want to buy the vitamin C powder but I’m not sure where to add it into my routine. I usually apply a hyaluronic acid lotion (the Hada Labo Gokujyun one) directly after washing my face and before applying my SPF. Do you think I should mix the vitamin C powder in with the hyaluronic lotion or with my SPF? Thank you :)

[@inescalvomoore8425]

I’ve also just purchased the SubQ Skin, would I be able to use that to mix the powder with?

[@MadAboutSkin]

Hey hun, I would add it to the Hyaluronic Acid as it will work well with that.. You shouldn't mix it with the subq as it can interrupt how it works.. I can't wait to hear what you think of the subq.. sending lots of love xxx

[@inescalvomoore8425]

@@MadAboutSkin Thank you for your reply! I used the vit C today by mixing a small amount with the HA lotion and applied it onto a damp face just before my SPF as I usually do. However, I was hoping to replace the Hada Labo HA with the SubQ as I thought they had similar properties and they’re both preferably applied on a damp face before anything else. I’ve also nearly ran out of the Hada Labo and wasn’t planning on repurchasing it because it’s not that great😅 But as the SubQ doesn’t mix well with the vit C should I just mix it with my SPF instead or do you have any other recommendations? Thank you♥️
