Hello! Thank you so much for the video! Glad I found your channel! It's like a hidden gem! I have a question: why we need to tap off the excess of water? To not dilute the next product we apply onto our skin?
Hello Anastasiia, Yes, there are many reasons. First, the skin absorbs some of it, and the rest remains on the skin's surface. This means it essentially sits there and does nothing. And as you've already pointed out, applying the product on wet skin can dilute the product, often creating a smeary texture, potentially altering the formulation's pH, or causing skincare pilling. I know many videos suggest otherwise. I think this misunderstanding primarily comes from Hyaluronic Acid. Many people believe that Hyaluronic Acid will absorb the water present on or even within the skin, drawing it up from deeper layers. However, this isn't possible as the Hyaluronic Acid in the product formulation is already saturated. So, in reality, there are no advantages to applying products on dry or damp skin-only potential drawbacks. Thank you! 🙂
Can we also use avene spray in this routine? Cleanser, BHA liquid exfoliant, snail mucin, spray, hyaluronic acid and then moisturizer? In the mornings, I 'm using the inkey list 15% vitamin C, can I also cleanse, snail mucin, spray, hyaluronic acid them vitamin C, moisturizer and spf?
Yes, however, it's not really needed. Use the spray before or after PC BHA. Also, please do not apply your Hyaluronic Acid serum on wet skin after spraying your face with water, that's bullshit and just causes issues.

No, just use the tretinoin on its own. Clean face with a cleanser suitable for your skin type (avoid exfoliating acid cleansers). Pat dry with a clean towel. Wait 15 minutes. Apply a pea-sized amount of tretinoin, avoiding the eyelids, corners of the eyes, nose, and lips. If you want to use a moisturizer, give it another 15 minutes before layering it on top.
@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet thank you so much melissa. As always, you are very helpful and i hope your channel gain more followers because you deserve it.
Thank you so much for replying ❤️❤️❤️ well am I’m using face reality ultra gentle wash Mandelic acid then moisturizer and the spf 30 all face reality products pm same wash then just the cream…. I have not seen any results I’m 31 and feel extremely insecure and sad I have acne alot of blackheads and can’t find what to help me…. I’ve tried dermatology in my 20s but all they prescribe is pills and I don’t want to take antibiotics please help
@@jessicabee4032 Okay, I checked that brand. And usually, they have a support that should help you with routine setup. But also, have you ever considered just using a Benzoyl Peroxide cleanser and Adapalene(retinoid) or a Retinol?
Thank you!! do you have a example routine I can try am and pm I would love to try it out… I forgot to mentioned I do have melasma under my eyes and upper lip never been pregnant nor take birth control pill so idk why I have it my ethnicity is Mexican
yes you can. Look for the PAO symbol. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Period-after-opening_symbol#:~:text=The%20period%2Dafter%2Dopening%20symbol,number%20of%20months%20or%20years.
sorry for this off topic question but it'll be great if you could help me a lill bit here :") I started using the "Heimish All Clean Mandarin cleansing balm" today and I noticed in the ingredient list that it has a lot of citrus fruit oils in it. Now, I use the "Ordinary Retinol 1% In Squalene" every night (except for the night I use expholient). As people say that we should not use Retinol with AHA, BHA and Vit C, will I face any problem if I use retinol this cleansing balm which has citrus in it? my routine is like this: 1. Heimish Mandarin cleansing balm 🙌🙌🙌🙌 2. CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser 3. Ordinary Niacinamide 4. CeraVe Moisturizing Cream for dry to very dry skin 5. Ordinary Retinol 1% 🙌🙌🙌🙌 6. CeraVe Moisturizing Cream for dry to very dry skin As you can see, after I use that cleansing balm, I use cleanse and use 2 products before I use the retinol. as the balm is a cleanser, it also gets wash away. So do you think using Retinol with it will be okay?
Hey! :) Don't worry about it - the cleansing balm won't affect your Retinol :) Also, you may want to check the video below: How to use The Ordinary Retinol 1% in Squalane: th-cam.com/video/FRio8uuyMCQ/w-d-xo.html
If a small amount accidentally gets inside your mouth, it is unlikely to cause any significant harm, but it is still advisable to spit it out and rinse your mouth with water.
This channel is so underrated, you deserve more subs! More people need to discover this!

Hi, thanks for this video. Is there a step for evening routine,dry sensitive skin? Should I still use toner before spraying avene mist?
No, that's just an optional step :)

Hi Melissa: when would an active, Vit C or retinal, fit within this routine. Thanks so much!
What Vitamin C do you want to use? 🤔
@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet Cerave
@@debbybeer5197 use it after Hyaluronic Acid but before moisturizer, same goes for the retinal.
@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet thanks so much

Hi, can we use thermal water with vit C and or Niacinamide acid serum ?
Yes :)
Hi, is thermal water suitable for oily skin?
Yes, it's great for all skin types 😊. However, adjust the other steps so that they suit your oily skin.
Can i use this before my tretinoin?
No, just use the tretinoin on its own.
Clean face with a cleanser suitable for your skin type (avoid exfoliating acid cleansers).
Pat dry with a clean towel.
Wait 15 minutes.
Apply a pea-sized amount of tretinoin, avoiding the eyelids, corners of the eyes, nose, and lips.
If you want to use a moisturizer, give it another 15 minutes before layering it on top.
@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet thank you so much melissa. As always, you are very helpful and i hope your channel gain more followers because you deserve it.
@@MsThea17
can i use both the thermal water spray and hada labo lotion together which kinda acts as a toner ? do i use the spray or toner first?
You would use the spray first, pat off the excess, and then apply the lotion.
can i mix it with my toner that contains no active ingredients in it?
I would not mix it, but layering it is fine. Mixing it may dilute the product, and then it may not properly absorb anymore.
@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet thanks for responding really helped me :)
No way. I literally just bought this. And here this video pops up.
🥰
😍😍

Yes, you can use Azelaic Acid 20% after thermal spring water. But what other products do you have 🤔?

Hi,how long can i use thermal water? Can i use it 6 months?

What happens if the thermal water spray gets inside my mouth? is edible?
