    Or an
    Aging skin routine using The Ordinary would be great also 😊😇

      The Ordinary recommend using their Vitamin C 23% and 30% Suspensions in the evening since it a stronger Vitamin C product. You can use it before or after your moisturiser (if you use one). See what layering method works best for you. Still don't forget SPF during daytime! :)

    Hi Melissa!
    I would like to use dermaroller for my eyes so is it ok to use ordinary hyaluronic asid And powder vitamin C together after dermaroller around my eyes? Or could I use only hyaluronic asid? Ive used caffeine for my eyes but I got alergy.

    • @MelissaVanDijkOfficial
      @MelissaVanDijkOfficial  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey! :)
      I haven't used a Dermaroller myself, so I'm not sure how intense certain skincare products can be afterwards. I recommend being careful with The Ordinary Vitamin C powder. Depending on how much you use and mixing it with Hyaluronic Acid can be intense and may lead to sensitivity.

      No, but according to what I have read online, a hint of yellow is still fine, but when it becomes dark yellow or even orange, it isn't OK anymore, and you should avoid it because it may create free radicals.

      Because I built a playlist whit the most common skincare products to show people a general guide on how to use it, there is no need for a toner or any additional products except for the one I showed in the video. But you can, of course, add a toner and other serums/creams if you like 😃
      Here is the playlist; it's not ready yet, and I need to rerecord some of the videos, but still you can find already some helpful guides :)

      I recommend trying it at first without an exfoliant to see how it goes and overtime if you should feel the need, you can always include an exfoliant.
      AM:
      - Cleanser
      - Toner
      - Hyaluronic Acid
      - Alpha Arbutin
      - Vitamin C
      - Moisturiser
      - SPF
      PM:
      - Cleanser
      - Toner
      - Niacinamide
      - Retinol
      - (Optional) Moisturiser
      Use The Ordinary 0,2% Retinol in Squalane every other day for a few weeks to give your skin the time to adjust to it. If irritation occurs reduce the frequency, if not you can move up to using it daily.
