Straight to the point and covered everything I needed to know. Thank you for your Ordinary series, all the videos are so helpful :)
Good day!
I'm from the Philippines, the ordinary was introduced by my sister in law. I use the same product as well as I do the routine you did in this video. Its been like 1yr and how many months since I used the product. It really helped my skin look brighter and less breakouts also it even makes the scar look less visible. ☺️
Thank you for this information and the video about fake and what not differences help me a lot in comparing.It really is difficult to buy an original product. ☺️
Thanks for sharing!🥰 I'm glad that the products have worked so well for you😊
just purchased those two exact products and i saw many opinions over laying glycholic acid and niacinamide together and honestly very confused as i thought i could layer them in the same routine :( then i saw your video and really what a lifesaver, thank you for all the information you shared they really helped !!
Well, yes, it's safe to do so. Not sure why they are telling this, but I saw that too, and that's why I recorded the video. You can look at the facts if you like: (well it's a lot to read but incredibly helpful 😀)

@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial just the one i need !!! am actually planning to purchase the salicylic acid as well so this is technically just spot on oh my god thank you so much 😭
@@tasneemkhalisa3811 Do you mean the Salicylic Acid Solution? Well, it's currently not available 😞 So you need to buy from another brand, or use the Salicylic Acid Mask instead which you can use twice a week :)
this is like the question I had !
I use these myself and your videos taught me the best way to apply The Ordinary serums. Keep up the good work!
Awesome! Thank you!😊
Thank you so much Melissa for explaining the order of using skin care products. I use The Ordinary products but was confused in which order to use them so your videos have very helpful 😊
Glad it was helpful!🥰
Thank you so much for all your videos. I have been trying to find videos of people actually showing how to use and what not to use with what. Keep up these fantastic videos.
You are so welcome! 😀
I just bought this 2 wohooo thank you 🙌🏼
How your skin reacts when you use it in the same routine ?
Share it please
Same! Lol
Hi Melissa! I’m a new subscriber as well as a newbie to skincare. I already have a cleanser and moisturizer so I was looking to add these exact two products to my routine. I’m laughing, it’s like you know exactly what people would like a video on. Thanks so much for simple, educational and reassuring videos! I greatly appreciate your efforts.
girl you're an angel 🎀🍓
❤️
Thanks for sharing this video. Ur videos help me a lot. I learned how to layer my skin care routine and what I should apply in morning and night routines.
My pleasure 😊
I love this girl so much! She is so helpful. ♥️

Straight to the point! Thank you so much!
Thank you! :) Glad to hear that you enjoyed it! :)
omg thank you for posting i been looking for a video like this for months thank you💕💕
Wow your skin be looking great!❤️
Love your accent. Dutch or German? And thank you so much for your informative and extremely helpful videos on how to use the Ordinary🙏🏾❤️
Ha neither 🤪 Luxembourgish. Thank you ❤️
I use these 2 for my evening routine... I have problems with acne on my forehead and these 2 are amazing!!! My face is getting better... thank you Melissa ❤️❤️❤️
🙂
Thanks to this video, now i will start to use these products.. 👍❤️
Can I use these in the following order:
Face cleanser (Purity)
Toner (Ordinary Glycolic Toner)
Niacinamide (Ordinary)
Aveeno Clear Complexion Moisturizer (contains salicylic acid)
I have rosacea/red prone skin and a propensity for nose blackheads and the occasional deep forehead pimple.
Yes, that's fine!
How often you should exfoliate depends on your skin type and skin concerns. Some people do well exfoliating with AHA or BHA twice a day, whereas others find that once a day or every other day is a perfect balance. Test to see what works best for your skin.
It’s fine to use both types of exfoliants (AHA and BHA) as part of your skin care routine - you can use them at the same time, alternate days of usage, or use one in the morning and one at night, depending on your preference.
Love your videos, thanks for helping us. 🙏🏻✨
I would be super interested in seeing your true skin care routine. Are their any products you love or ones you didn’t like ?
🙃 It's one TH-cam, and I am uploading it daily. So that's my routine..🤪 The products that I show on a daily base are the once that I am using. So it changes every day. 😞
Also, I prerecord the videos, so the video from today was recorded two days ago. ;)
But I can talk about my favorites soon, yes, definitely a good idea. There is so much to cover... 🙈
Thank you😊 will use mine together now..
I am glad that I found this video. I concluded that I shouldn’t be using glycolic on my skin... I have acne prone - blackhead skin and I have a tingling and uncomfortable burning sensation after I use it. Are there any other toners I can try?
The Glycolic Acid is an exfoliator. It's very confusing even though they say toning solution. You can try Lactic Acid 5% or Salicylic Acid(in case you have oily skin)

Hey, can I use The Ordinary’s Glycolic Acid, Niacinamide, Hyaluronic Acid and Rose Hip Seed Oil in the same PM routine? Amazing content btw 😊
Yes, you can use them in that order. Alternatively, applying hyaluronic acid before niacinamide is also an option.
Really love your channel! 😍
Thank you so much!!❤️
I am.in love with u melissa so informative video.hats off to u.😘
Thank you so much 😀
Skincare routine:
Cerave foaming facial cleanser
The ordinary niacinamide serum
Cerave daily moisturizer
Neutrogena sunscreen
And I was hoping to add this product in. I have an oily nose and the rest of my face is normal so do you have any tips for improving my skincare routine??
I want to get rid of scarring I have and I have really bad under eye bags that I wanna improve too
Yeah, you can add Glycolic acid to your routine.
For scars, it depends on the scars as this is always a trickier part to see improvements as there are different treatments that may or may not work for you....Have a look at Retinoid/Retinol and combine it with Glycolic Acid.
For under eye bags, I'm not sure what will work as I don't have bags myself🤷🏼♀️
Hello Melissa, greetings from Indonesia. I've been watching your videos this recent week. I like them so much beacuse they're straight to the point. Your contents about The Ordinary are really helpful since I start using the product myself. I was wondering if you can demonstrate how to use Salicylic Acid serum because I only trust your technique of application and the advice from The Ordinary's ambassadors. Thanks a lot 😄💗
Hello Nurannisa, thank you so much for your lovely comment. And I am glad that my content can help you.
Sadly I can't show you how to use the Salicylic Acid serum because it isn't available in my country, I already tried to get the old version of it, but it's sold out everywhere. The good news is that I will do it once it is available. But I am not sure when this will be 😞
What products do you have?
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial oh my God that's very nice of you to reply my comment! I just start using niacinamide for about two weeks now, and I'm following your technique of application. I'd like to try the salicylic acid one because I have oily and acne prone skin so I think the product would be a great combination with niacinamide. The reason why it's not available because the product is under new development, I just checked the Deciem website
@@nnayaf And what are your results?
Yes, 😞 But what you can do is looking for an alternative, you may wish to buy a cleanser with Salicylic Acid in it.
What I would recommend is using the Salicylic Mask twice a week. And probably wait until the solution it's back in stock. Or you need to buy the one from Paula's Choice, but that's just crazy expensive, and I think it's not worth it. But I would rather wait until the Ordinary Salicylic Acid Solution is back in stock, and like I said, to use the mask as an alternative.

@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial the results are pretty amazing, I can see improvement on my skin after using niacinamide. Salicylic Acid Mask sounds tempting, I'll try it soon. Thank you for the suggestion, Melissa! 😄
I don’t know if you knew it, but glycolic acid also shouldn’t be used with buffet or SubQ skin. The ordinary told me that when I asked them. :)
Thank you🤗 I know that it can't be used with Buffet but I haven't looked into Hylamide and its conflicts with the Ordinary products😊
Here is my evening routine :
CeraVe foaming cleanser for oily skin
Glycolic acid toning solution

Love you videos!
I'm a Black man. I just got out of the shower and I washed my face with La roche-posay toleriane hydrating gentle cleanser for normal to dry skin. After I dry my skin I'm at applied the ordinary glycolic acid 7% toning solution pH 3.6. My question is should I apply Olay Regenerist retinol 24 night moisturizer or should I just go to bed without the Olay Regenerist retinol 24 night moisturizer?Can the Ordinary and Olay be used one after the other? Can you please elaborate and educate me please. Thank you
Hello John,
Technically it would help if you did not use the AHA (Glycolic Acid) with your retinol serum, as this can lead to irritation. Usually, it is fine initially, but your skin can become sensitive after a while. So my advice is to alternate days.
Example:
Monday:
Cleanse
Glycolic Acid
Moisturizer suitable for your normal to dry skin (No retinol, no Exfoliating acids) e.g. Paula's Choice Omega + Moisturizer
Tuesday
Cleanse
Olay Regenerist retinol 24-night moisturizer
Wednesday:
Cleanse
Glycolic Acid
Moisturizer suitable for your normal to dry skin (No retinol, no Exfoliating acids) e.g. Paula's Choice Omega + Moisturizer
Etc.
of course, you need to adjust the frequency accordingly to the changing needs of your skin, but that would be a great start :)
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial thank you for enlightening me. You've been very helpful. So are you saying that Paula's Choice is a better product than the ordinary glycolic liquid that I'm using?
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial I'm getting the feeling that the Olay Regenerist 24 night lotion that I'm using is the same as the ordinary 7% toning liquid? do they both act as exfoliant?
No, all I'm saying is that I recommend not using your Glycolic Acid and Retinol Moisturizer in the same routine. Alternate between them in your evening routine. Use a non-Retinol moisturizer after your Glycolic Acid such as Paula's Choice Omega moisturizer, however, this can also be a different one.
Glycolic Acid helps to loosen the dead skin cells on the surface of the skin while Retinol helps to speed up the cell turnover and also leads to a 'sort of' exfoliating part, but they work differently.
U r best man thanks
Hi there! Your videos are so helpful, I’ve been getting more and more into skincare and these describe everything great! I have a question, I got both the glycolic acid toner and the lactic acid 10% + HA (both the Ordinary brand), should I rotate between them nightly/every couple of days, or just stick to one?
Hey! :)
Both are exfoliating acids. You may just want to stick to one for a while before switching or alternating with the other. This way, you can see which one your skin prefers most and what works the best for you.
I recommend starting with using it 2-3 times per week for some time before increasing its frequency.
AHAs are also recommended for oily skin, blackheads and large pores...
No, they are not. They only work on the surface of the skin, so they will not be very effective for controlling oiliness or reducing the appearance of enlarged pores unless there is a significant buildup of dead skin cells. Unfortunately, they are also not effective for blackheads that are already present since they cannot penetrate deeply enough to have an impact. However, it should be noted that there is no proper testing available to confirm their effectiveness in this regard.
Thank u its very helpfull for me how to use this products
🥰
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial now i putt on my face this product.but i feel little bitt itching and littlt small small pimples coming on my face .so it means this product not for my face .i should use this product or not plz guide me dear
@@kaurqueen731 It's likely too strong. You can use it on your body instead. What are your skin concerns?
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial ok thank u dear
Hi. I love this video! Im having a pimple breakout right now, is it ok to use this this toner and serum even though im having an active breakouts? Im hoping that this would help my face.
It is not meant for pimples. But it can help, and yes, it is okay to use when having active breakouts; it may just sting a little 😉
Hey, I love your reviews! I got a question, can I use the niacinamide as a serum? If not, can I used it before applying the serum?
Hello 😀 The Niacinamide is a serum, so you can use it as a serum.
Hi! Thank you for sharing all the info about these amazing products! I wanted to ask you if its okay to use Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% and the Ascorbic acid 8% + Alpha arbutin 2% at the same time?
I'm glad that I could help😊
Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% cannot be used alongside any pure or ethylated forms of Vitamin C.
Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% can only be used alongside Vitamin C derivatives:
- Ascorbyl Glucoside Solution 12%
- Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate Solution 20% in Vitamin F
- Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate 10%
The Ascorbic acid 8% + Alpha arbutin 2% should not be used in the same routine when using Niacinamide. Please use one of them in the AM and the other one in the PM😊
Melissa Van Dijk thank you so much for your help!😌
Thank you for sharing us this video and this information 😍😍
Can i use the Argireline solution 10% in the same day ? Or at the same routine ?
You can use it during the same day but not after Glycolic Acid. So it would help if you kept them separate.
Hello please enlighten me . Dermatologist says that AHA such as glycolic acid is not good to mix with niacinamide because they have different PHs levels that could lead to skin irritation .
What kind of dermatologists say that? 🤔
Hey! My routine is:
Am
Cerave blemish control cleanser
Aloe Vera gel (holika holika)
Bulldog moisturizer oil control with witch hazel
Sunscreen
Pm
Gentle cleanser
Glycolic acid toner
Niacinamide serum
Aloe Vera gel (holika holika)
The same moisturizer
I have acne prone skin with blackheads and combination skin! Is this a good routine?
I would do this:
AM Routine:
CeraVe Blemish Control Cleanser
Sunscreen (if going outdoors)
PM Routine:
Gentle Cleanser (choose one that suits your skin type - for dry skin, use a cleanser formulated for dry skin; for oily skin, choose one for oily skin).
Glycolic Acid Toner (apply and wait a few minutes before the next step).
Niacinamide Serum.
Aloe Vera Gel.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial so no need for an moisturiser?
@@frickmr Correct and your Aloe Vera Gel is already a lightweight moisturizer :)
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial ok! I didn’t know that. Thank you!
Its my first time to use the glycolic acid 7% hopefully it will work for me. As i am already using ordinary the niacinamide for my daily routine and the buffet peptide i use it when Im using my Mesotheraphy electroporation RF skin rejuvenating device.
Hey! :)
Please do not use Glycolic Acid and Buffet + Copper Peptides in the same routine, keep them separate. Buffet + Copper Peptides (and all the other Ordinary Peptide serums) conflict with AHA and BHA (exfoliating acids) and Vitamin C.
So you can use Buffet + Copper Peptides and Niacinamide in the same routine and/or Glycolic Acid and Niacinamide.
Hi Melissa! 1)Which "strong acids" should not be used in the same routine with glycolic acid Toning?
2)Can I use the rest of acids from the ordinary with this Toning?
Thanks Thanks ☺️
See here:
The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Toning Solution What You Can and Cannot Mix - With Examples:

Why The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Toning Solution Is NOT A Hydrating & Soothing Toner! + Examples:
th-cam.com/video/EWU7vvGM9EM/w-d-xo.html
Is my skincare routine is correct?
1. Washing my face with hada labo AHA+BHA with salicylic acid
2. The ordinary Niacinamide
3. Hada labo hyaluronic acid or neutrogena hyaluronic gel mask
Night i add the ordinary toner
The order of application is correct!😊
However, does it say anything about the % of AHA and BHA of your face wash?
Since when using the Ordinary toner (which isn't really a toner, it's still an exfoliator as it contains 7% of Glycolic Acid (AHA) in it...) I recommend using a gentle/neutral cleanser that doesn't contain AHA and/or BHA in it...it may be too strong as it's like you would double exfoliate the skin.
Wow im so glad that you replied on me😍❤️thank you so much. Want more things i want to ask I just bought ordinary glycolic toning, should i use it after wash?
Yes, that's the correct order :)
Also, how often you should exfoliate depends on your skin type and skin concerns. Some people do well exfoliating with AHA(Glycolic Acid, Lactic Acid) or BHA(Salicylic Acid) twice a day, whereas others find that once a day or every other day is a perfect balance. Test to see what works best for your skin.
Thank youuuu!!
❤️💋great video, thank you🙏🏻 do you think this combination can help with blackneads and pimples?🙏🏻im having this problem with my skin and im really hoping this can help😩
Blackheads are a bit tricky to get rid of. Usually, Retinol and/or Salicylic Acid can help to reduce them. However, they sometimes need to get extracted with a tool, and then you can maintain it with skincare products.
Thank you
Hi Melissa, is this routine okay? AM
- Cleanser
- Glycolic acid (2 or 3 times per week)
- Niacinamide
- SPF
PM
- Cleanser
- Hyaluronic acid
- Retinol (2 or 3 times per week)
Yes, that looks good. I suggest not using the retinol on the same day as the acid for an even gentler option :)
Hii thank you so much for your amazing content 💕
I wanted to ask if its possible using the vitamin C after applying the toning solution?
Yes, however, if you are new to both products. You may want to use them at alternate times/routines for a while before using them in the same routine. This way your skin has time to adjust to them.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial ah okey ill do it that way thank you so much🙏🏽💕
Your hair style 😚♾
Hello I love your video!!
Can I use glycolic acid with retinol 0.2% in sqalane, niacinamide and hyaluraunic acid in the same routine in the evening?
Thank you in advance!!
t's low strength, so there shouldn't be an issue. But be careful when using higher strength of Retinol. If you do so, either keep Glycolic Acid and Retinol separate or use Granactive Retinoid 2% or 5% since otherwise, it may irritate your skin.
Liked the way u explain. Just want to ask after ordinary glycolic solution and niacinamide can we also use ordinary retinol 1% in squanale
You can; however, it may be too much depending on your skin type and needs. I only recommend it when you have acne scars or PIH. But always patch test and see how your skin tolerates it. Also, I recommend using a good moisturizer along with the 1% Retinol to avoid dryness and skin irritation. Always patch test before applying it all over your face :)
Hii so this is my routine
1.Glycolic acid
2.Niacinamide + Zinc
3.Azelaic acid
4.Moisturizer
Is this fine?
Hey :)
Use your moisturiser before applying Azelaic Acid! The rest of your routine looks good! :)
Keep in mind:
How often you can exfoliate your skin with Glycolic Acid depends on your skin concerns and tolerance. Some people can do this daily whereas others prefer to do this only 2-3 times per week. Start slowly, see how it goes and based on that adjust the frequency of it! :)
I have acne and pimples i used cerave foaming cleanser for clean my face and after can i use glycolic acid toner😢plz reply me i have an oily skin plz recommend a best most suitable moisturiser and spf for my oily based acne skin❤god bless you friends🥰❤

hey melissa ... What is the best for skin glowing ? Pixi glow tonic or Ordinary glycolic acid tonic? Plz reply me..love from srilanka
Both are great, however I feel that pixi is more gentle, but it includes fragrance. But apart from that they show very similar results.
Can I apply neutrogena hydro boost water gel as a moisturizer after application of these products?please Can you tell me.
Yes, that's fine😊
Can I use these the same day I use the peeling solution? Also great video < 3
Hello 😀 No ,please avoid any other acids when using the peeling solution.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial thank you so much 😘
Hello, would this be a good daily skin routine..? I usually just wash my face once a day since I have sensitive skin.
Salicylic face cleanser
Glycolic acid toner
Lactic acid
Hyaluronic serum
Niacinamide
🤔 Please, do not do that routine if you have sensitive skin.
Glycolic Acid and Lactic Acid are not recommended for sensitive skin since they have small molecules that can easily penetrate the skin, leading to stinging and burning.
Sometimes Hyaluronic Acid can cause issues too for sensitive skin.
And Niacinamide 10% is generally okay.
What are you trying to target with the routine? And is your only concern sensitive skin 🤔
Hello! Thank you for this video!Can you tell me please is spf 20 is enough after this toner?
It depends on what you do during the day. If you have a lot of sun exposure, then a higher SPF factor is always better. However, if you just spend brief periods outside, then SPF 20 or 30 is more than enough. Personally, I generally only use SPF 20 or 30, but it really depends a lot on your lifestyle. Therefore, you need to adjust accordingly.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial Thank you so much for the answer!🌸
Hello, thanks for the explanation. I bought a solution of glycolic acid 7%, Hayronlic acid, nai Zinc and Vitamin C from Oznatural. How can I organize my use of these products? Please 😔
As I mentioned in the other comment you have to try it. If it does not work use Glycolic Acid and Vitamin C at alternate times. For example Vitamin C in the morning and the glycolic acid in the evening.
Hey Hi, I am following your videos on ordinary products. The way you demonstrate the product is very helpful to me ❤️ , so I decided to purchase the ordinary products, after going through the videos, I wanted to follow below regime, please correct me if there are any conflicts in my regime, I am having pigmentation, dull skin and a little acne
AM :
Alpha Arbutin 2 +ha
Niacinamide 10 +zinc 1
Ascorbyl Glucoside Solution 12%
PM :
Ascorbic Acid 8% + Alpha Arbutin 2%
Azelaic Acid Suspension 10%
Can you recommend a good moisturizer for my skin, It will be very helpful if you reply
Well it looks great, but I am not sure about the PM routine. If you have sensitive skin I wouldn't recommend this combination. Otherwise you are fine to do so :) 😀
Are you from india? Can I know where did you get it from?

@@vedavyas4194 well, have a look at the Ordinary Natural Moisturizing Factors or their Squalane Oil or the Cetaphil Daily Advanced Lotion or the Nivea Soft Moisturizing cream have worked well for my combination skin😊
Hi, I'm your follower. I have pigmentation. Which ordinary product can I use for my face.
Hey! :)
What kind of hyperpigmentation do you have?
Hello can I use niacinamide, alpha aburtin 2% , and hyaluronic acid in the same routine thanks . 😊
Yes, that's fine!
If you have more than one water-based serum, you can apply based on the priority of your concern (the product that targets the most important concern should go first).😊
Thanks dr ❤️🇴🇲
Hello! Your videos are great :) I bought those products recently along with the Caffeine solution to reduce dark circles around the eyes.
Do you think it would be too much for this night routine? :)

Hey, yes you can😊 but before you're doing this:
If you wish to incorporate multiple Vitamin C's, Retinoids, and/or Direct Acids into your skincare regimen, it's suggested using them on alternate evenings and waiting until your skin has adjusted to one before introducing another.

Is there anything i can add or stop using to help with my acne and redness
The order of application looks good. However, for how long have you been following that routine, and how's it going so far?
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial it’s been a month and it’s doing pretty good but i still struggle with a few pimples here and there
@@justme1106 That's great to hear! 😊 Yeah, this can be because of something you eat, do, or use that may trigger them, but if they occur randomly, like just one or two, don't worry too much! 😊
Thank you sis for the video, actually have not started using any chemical products but i have acne, oily face, black spot and pores, so don't know which one to start with. Pls, can you enlighten me.
Have a look at a Salicylic Acid exfoliant :)
Hi mate, you’re absolutely gorgeous and I’ve a small doubt can i use the ordinary natural moisturiser +HA after applying glycolic acid and niacinamide?
Hey 😀 Thank you. Yes, you can use it after. Here are the steps that you need to follow:
Cleanser
Glycolic Acid (Water-Based Serum, Exfoliant)
Niacinamide (Water-Based Serum)
Moisturizer (Cream)
Steps:
Cleanser
Toner
Exfoliant
Serums (1.Water Based, 2. Anhydrous Solution, 3.Oil)
Moisturizer&Suspension
The general rule of thumb for order of application is:
1. Water-based serums
2. Anhydrous Solutions and Oil Formulations
3. Lotions & Creams & suspensions
Important:
If you have more than one water-based serum, you can apply based on the priority of your concern (the product that targets the most important concern should go first). And it’s recommended applying eye-serums (such as Caffeine Solution 5% + EGCG) first after cleansing.
It’s recommended using no more than 3 serum formulations in a single routine for optimal skin penetration.
About 2-3 drops of each serum and 1 pea-sized amount of creams should be enough for the full face and neck.
Use a "patting" application method, as opposed to "rubbing."
Always apply sunscreen when you are exposed to the sun!!
I thought we weren't supposed to mix glycolic acid with niacinamide+zinc?
Can I use Niacinamide with AHA or BHA (Glycolic Acid, Lactic Acid, Mandelic Acid, Salicylic Acid):
th-cam.com/video/Pw1iWF_Hdnk/w-d-xo.html
I have oily skin, can i use this this since I've already bought it ? oh and my glycolic acid looks a bit yellowish not link like yours is that normal?
You can yes. That's normal see here: theordinary.deciem.com/product/rdn-glycolic-acid-7pct-toning-solution-240ml
Hello can i use alpha arbutin 2% +HA with them? Thankss 🥰🥰
Yes you can! :)
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial can you also add the rose hip oil in addition to that?
@@pratikgurung9222 Yes, that's fine! :)
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial thank you 😁😁
Hi can I use these products with alpha arbutin, niacinamide,buffet and sunscreen in the morning ?
Thank you 😊 💕
You can use Alpha Arbutin, Niacinamide, Buffet and Sunscreen in the morning. However, you would need to use Glycolic Acid in the evening as it conflicts with Buffet.
Hey Melissa,
Absolutely in love with your personality and love how helpful you are.
Can i use pixi glow tonic and Niacinamide together?
Hello Tasmima :) Thank you. Yes, you can use those together. Some people may experience temporary flushing(redness) while doing so, but this is not harmful :)
Hello beautiful
Can u please ans my question
Can i use murad vitamin c brightening serum (which contains glycolic acid also)
And tretenoin together?
Vitamin c in the morning
And tretenoin (thrice a week) in the evening
Please please reply
Yes, that's fine :)
Skincare on hand
The ordinary squalene cleanser, hyaluronic acid, niacinamide, retinol and moisturizer. I’m planning also to add the ordinary glycolic acid in my routine. How to mix it. Thank you
Hey :)
My advice would be to use it on the days when using your retinol. And start with 2-3 times a week in your evening skincare routine.
Cleanser
Glycolic Acid
Hyaluronic Acid
Niacinamide
Moisturizer
Very usefull vidio melissa
Glad it was helpful!🙂
Am I doing right?
Am: Cerave Foam cleanser + Niacinamide + Biore aqua sunscreen.
PM: Cerave foam cleanser + glycolic toner + Niacinamide + cerave moisturizing lotion
Then, twice a week of Peel mask?
Yes, correct😊
Melissa Van Dijk is it also normal that my skin turns red after washing off the peeling solution? :)
With any new formulation, some sensitivity or initial redness can be normal. Initial redness upon application is not a cause for concern if it goes away after a few moments.
Does the redness go away after some time?
It may also stain your face a bit because of its berry color😅
Melissa Van Dijk yes it does. I think after 1 hr or 2 :)
Thank you so much!🥰
After this proces can i use use hylocronic acid . as a mousturizer??
Plz plz tell me.. and i have ascrobic acid is it can use same time .. plz tel me
Yes😊
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial plz read once agin my comnt
@@navneetbenipal8342 What ascorbic acid do you have?
The Ordinary does not recommend using their Niacinamide with pure or ethylated forms of vitamin C. So, I recommend using them at separate times😊
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial thnk u sooo sooo much ... 👍🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 for rply ...
I have ascorbic acid 8%alpha arbutin 2%
So you have:
- Hyaluronic Acid
- Niacinamide
- Glycolic Acid
- Ascorbic Acid + Alpha Arbutin?
- Moisturiser
Is this everything you use?
hi this is the routine that i’m just starting:
- micellar water (if there’s makeup)
- cerave sa cleanser
- ordinary glycolic acid toner / lactic acid 10% (alternating days)
- niacinamide 10%
- cerave lotion
is this okay?
I recommend using a gentle cleanser (without Salicylic Acid or other exfoliating acids) when using Glycolic Acid or Lactic Acid to avoid irritation.
The rest of the routine looks great! :)
For my night time routine I’ve just started using CeraVe SA cleanser then The Ordinary glycolic acid toner then The Ordinary niacinamide serum but my skin always burns & my acne feels irritated. Is this normal? Is my skin adjusting? Or am I doing something wrong?
When do you get that burning? After Glycolic Acid or Niacinamide?
If you have the SA Renewing Cleanser, it may be best not to use that one when using Glycolic Acid in the same routine since both will exfoliate your skin. Some people can use them together, whereas others may find this combination too strong. Or it may be Glycolic Acid. If that one alone burns on your skin, it may be too strong/ you might be better off with Salicylic Acid (BHA) instead of or like the Ordinary Mandelic Acid.
I feel that too ..
I wash my face with the effaclair of la roche posey and then I put the glycolid acid and niacinamide and cera ve moistaraizer but that makes my skin tickle and burn a little is it normal or should I stop using it
What La Roche Cleanser do you use? Also, how often do you use the Glycolic Acid? When does it burn on the skin after what product? Have you done a patch test before applying it to your face?😊
Hi melissa..i love all your reviews ...i have a dry and oily skin.. but i don't know what is good for my skin..i bought glycolic acid 7% toning solution,Niacinamide,Buffet,,euk134 and also cold pressed rose hip seed oil..it's my first time to try all this product..can you help me for this😅😁
Hey again😊
AM Routine:
- Cleanse
- Niacinamide
- EUK
- (Optional) Moisturiser
- SPF
Keep in mind that the conflicts of EUK are those: Do not use with highly acidic treatments, Pure Vitamin C (EAA/LAA), and Buffet + Copper Peptides 1%. - So do not use it in the same routine as Glycolic Acid.
PM Routine:
- Cleanse
- Glycolic Acid
- Rose Hip Seed Oil
- (Optional) Moisturiser
The general rule of thumb for order of application is:
1. Water-based serums
2. Anhydrous Solutions and Oil Formulations
3. Lotions & Creams & suspensions
Important:
If you have more than one water-based serum, you can apply based on the priority of your concern (the product that targets the most important concern should go first).
It’s recommended using no more than 3 serum formulations in a single routine for optimal skin penetration.
About 2-3 drops of each serum and 1 pea-sized amount of creams should be enough for the full face and neck.
Use a "patting" application method, as opposed to "rubbing."
Always apply sunscreen when you are exposed to the sun!!
How often you should exfoliate depends on your skin type and skin concerns. Some people do well exfoliating with AHA or BHA twice a day, whereas others find that once a day or every other day is a perfect balance. Test to see what works best for your skin.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial thank you so much..😊🥰.it's really help a lot.god blessed..
Hello... can i know the glycolic acid toning solution suitable for combination skin?
Yes it is but make sure to read this:

See here: th-cam.com/video/pGb_ZtCAk_s/w-d-xo.htmlsi=uEZTRV6zjVRNdCge
You can use the other products in the AM.
Got pimples after moving to other country. Just bought this skincare. Is it alright? I'm mixing toning solution, Niacinamide and aha bha serum. Thank you
Please do not do that. You can use these products, but please do not use them in the same routine.
I recommend watching the following videos to understand how to layer them correctly:

Here is my evening routine , can u give me some comment:
1- remove my makeup by makeup remover
2 washing face
3 glycolic acid
4 niacinamide 10%+zinc1
5 hyarulonic acid 2% + B5 (should i use it )
6- The Ordinary Natural Moisturizing Factors + HA
Hey :)
Yes, that's fine!
Hyaluronic acid is a sugar. It is not be confused with other acids like salicylic or glycolic acids, which exfoliate away dead skin cells.
Hello Mel i have question can we use the glycolic acid toner everyday?? or it once a day only?????
Hey! :)
Have a look at this video:
How Often and When to Use The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Toning Solution With Examples: th-cam.com/video/0s_XPFywMzQ/w-d-xo.html
Hi, if I use these in the evening, can I use vitamic c in the morning? I have the La Roche-Posay one.
Yes, that's okay.

Hi I was wondering if this order would be alright?
Cerave cleanser
Toner
Azelaic acid
Moisturiser
Suncream
Where would I use the niancinamide? I also don’t do this routine everyday I sometimes just use moisturiser.
Niacinamide would go after toner, before Azelaic Acid :)
Hi! I was wondering if I should wait after applying the toner (30 min ish) before using the serum to avoid any conflict with the niacinamide as my skin is very sensitive (I've just finished taking accutane!). Thank you, I loved the video!
The issues are that it can react with Niacinamide. But this only leads to redness or can make it less effective in some cases. But nothing to really worry about if you use it properly. So you can apply the products right after another just wait 30second to a minute or whatever you usually do ;)
I am more worried about Accutane do you have dry skin, and what did your doctor say?
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial I have combination skin but it's quite sensitive. However, the treatment went great, I do not have acne anymore but I still have some dark spots caused by pimples, that's why I wanted to give these two products a try. I'll patch test before using them everyday though! Thanks for answering 😊🙏
@@carmenmp7884 Well yes, so it shouldn't be an issue for you 🙂
Hey, I got glycolic acid, niacinamide and salicylic acid, all from the ordinary, I have acne prone skin and got off accutane just 2 months ago, can you tell me the routine I should follow
Avoid using glycolic acid and salicylic acid in the same routine. Use both in the evening but on different days, and monitor the frequency to avoid or reduce over-exfoliation. Use niacinamide in the morning. Additionally, pay attention to your diet to reduce the chances of acne returning. Avoid consuming too much added sugar, processed food, and fast food. Also, be aware of any food intolerances, such as soy, milk, bread (gluten), eggs, and chicken.
