By the way, thank you for the tip on using a makeup brush! I found one at my 99 Cents Store, and it made application so much easier. I just put some of the AHA BHA solution in hand, dipped the makeup brush into it, and applied it to my face. Genius!! I wouldn't have thought to do that. Your videos are the best!! I'm really learning how to use The Ordinary products in a way that works for my skin. THANK YOU!!

Thank you for being so thorough Melissa, I had so many questions before watching you, but now everything is crystal clear. And all the tips along the way, priceless!
Hello MIHAELAEU, thanks for the feedback 😃 If you mainly use The Ordinary products, I recommend watching the following videos: The Ordinary Layering: th-cam.com/video/gMrV5WD8KkA/w-d-xo.html The Ordinary For Beginners: th-cam.com/video/diaLVk_EsI4/w-d-xo.html
First try peeling solutions i freakout. So itchy and tingling! Wash it after 2minutes apply. Haha. And apply again calmly, and the itchy & tingling not so bad. I survived 10minutes and my skin so smooth. Worth the freakout. Haha
Thank you for this video. I've been debating whether to order The Peeling Solution, watching other videos about it had me terrified to try it. After viewing your video, I am not so afraid, this has been incredibly helpful and informative.
She really does! Finding out about all those acids on the internet I was completely confused but now, due to her videos everything becomes so clearly to my mind!!!
A few days ago, at Sephora online, I bought this peeling product and used it once, and it had an immediate effect. To know a lot of things to be aware of before a problem occurs I'm glad to see your video by chance. I'm glad and happy to watch it. Thank you!
I seriously wish I would have come across your channel earlier! All of your videos are amazing and thank you so much for teaching all of us how to correctly use our skin care products. Keep up the great work!
I am starting on TO aha and bha and was kind of scared to start but after watching your video I was enlightened and now excited to use after a patch test. I am glad I knew I can start with 3 or 5 minutes. Then put a thinner layer as oppose to a thicker layer. The use of a flat brush is a good tip! Thank you for the info.
I really love how detailed and practical your videos are. Im trying to start TO products, and your videos are definitely the most helpful one. Thank you ♡

Hi Melissa! First, I have to say that I’m thankful I’ve come across your channel (have subscribed right after). Your contents are clear and very helpful. I just recently added the Ordinary Glycolic 7% acid and the Naicinamide 10% + Zinc 1% to my skin care routine after I binge watched your videos. Been using Tretinoin for years and didn’t know adding acids is great as well. Thanks so much!
Hey! :) Thank you! Keep in mind to keep Glycolic Acid and Tretinoin in separate routines, especially in the beginning to see how your skin tolerates Glycolic Acid! :)
Was about to sleep but im glad youtube popped up it’s notification about this vid 😆 i have oily combination skin and been eyeing the ordinary aha bha solution for months but am too scared to try since I never tried chemical exfoliator before. Wanted to try lactic acid 5% by the ordinary (since they say it’s a milder form) first so I can build my skin’s tolerance but im So glad i found your tip like leaving the aha bha solution for first 3 min to slowly build tolerance. Thank you!!!
Out of all the Ordinary Acids, Mandelic Acid is the gentlest as it penetrates slower into the skin and then Lactic Acid 5% would be the second mildest...or using a BHA leave-on exfoliant which is great if you are suffering from blemishes, have sensitive-oil skin😊 But yeah, you can start using the peeling solution for only a few minutes at first before leaving it on the skin for those full 10min so that your skin has time to adjust😊 Glad that I could help😊
You are amazing so well explained and love the fact that you put together a list of products that one should NOT use with or right after the peel. Also, the suggestions are superb. Like to start slowly with 3 minutes....Love the way you test the products. BEST!!!!!
Soooo I just used this product for the first time and I fell in love with it. I followed your other youtube video that shows what products might conflict with this one. (Very informative videos btw!) My mistake was not watching this one first, where you talk about not using a cleanser beforehand that contains certain acids. 😳(I used the pur see no more cleanser.) Luckily, no irratation was caused and I used the ordinary moisturizer at the end. Hopefully this won't damage my skin or anything. Thank you so much for these videos! Now I know to watch them all beforehand and not while I'm actually just applying the product. Lol
Hey, well no that's why I said high% of acids. Most cleansers have very little to none acids in their (even if they say so). It's mostly marketing. But there are some powerful cleansers on the market that include 2-12% of acids. They may be very irritating. ;)
Really really good 👍🏼. Very helpful video, it’s long but very helpful. Love your accent and the tone of your voice and that you don’t make squeaky voices and you keep it very naturally. It’s a pleasure to watch you and listen to you. I didn’t know what to use after the pilling and I’m so glad I came across your video because it made it very clear what to use. Thank you very much. I subscribed to your channel. Wish you a lot of success.
Hey! :) Thank you so much for your lovely words!🥰 This truly made my day because I'm trying to keep my videos as educational & helpful as I can, especially when using The Ordinary products because this can sometimes be quite confusing😉
You are the best! Thank you very much again and again. I’ve learned a lot from your videos. Whit those products and with your videos my skin have changed. I love it ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks melissa! Ur videos are completely very informative! Its my first day using the ordinary products and i depend everything on ur videos. Thanks! Godbless!
Your videos are always informative and your skin is looking 👌🏾. I have just finished using my AHA BHA peeling solution right now. I use it on Fridays only. Works great for me.
@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet First, it does not break me out - my skin breaks out easily if the ingredients are not suitable for my skin, also it makes my skin soft immediately after use.
I just bought the AHA BHA peeling solution and the Niacinamide, and I was wondering how to use it because I'm scared that I might burn my skin. I am so glad I stumbled on your video. It really helped answer my questions and it really made me understand the "science" behind these acids because I admit I wasn't well-versed about these acids. I just know that they are good for acne-prone skin that's why I started to invest in products with AHA/BHA. Thank you so much!! Your videos are really informative! So much love from Philippines.
Just keep in mind that these serums are not acne treatments; many people promote it that way, but they can help to some extent since BHA can unclog the pores, and because the solution is making it acidic, the bacteria may have a hard time. But if you are looking for acne treatments, look for Benzoyl Peroxide cleansers or Retinoids (adapalene)
Thank u so much Melissa ! That was very helpful , It is indeniably that u r putting so much work & effort on ur videos..Great job! Sending u so many virtual hugs & kisses ❤
Hello 🤔 hm, that's a good question. Well, I count after I am done with the application, but I have never really thought about that 🤪 , but it doesn't take long to apply it, maybe 1minute. (without talking ;) )
@@halcyon2017 Haha, 😀Hurry up 😆🤪 If it takes a bit longer, just start the timer earlier. But generally, there is no harm in leaving it on for a couple of minutes longer ;)
@@vish5636 I have a guide for this, which includes examples. You can see it here: Can I use The Ordinary AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution with Glycolic, Lactic or Salicylic Acid th-cam.com/video/uDkmG9mInAs/w-d-xo.html
Hi Melissa, your videos are always so informative and lovely to watch. One question, is the listed conflict items with this peeling solution to avoid for the only night that you used this peeling solution? Or should we avoid it for maybe 3 days or more? I am scared it might be a bit too powerful until the conflicted items might still be affected after a night of resting or so
It's only during the same routine. It is because your skin may become sensitive or the pH is too low, and therefore it can burn or sting on the skin, and some products can have a chemical reaction so that they will be less effective. But that is something that I can emphasize a bit more in my videos when doing such a video.
@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet haha, your video are informative enough already, if viewers need more information, they can always ask you like I did. Really appreciated your reply and attention you pay to these comments. Thanks a lot
Wonderful video Melissa,.... I think using a brush gives it a more luxurious...spa type feeling...to the application. I am glad you emphasize not to use it longer than recommended. After the use of acids... any kind, I usually go right away with a very gentle serum...like the marine hydruolics,niacinamide and just a good moisturizer....😃
Hey Manuel🤗 Thank you!🥰 Yes, that's true like a spa day at home, haha🧖🏼♀️ Yeah, it's so important to mention everything about the peeling solution as it is a strong mask - no doubt! Yep, that's the right way to finish it😊
Yeah, 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.
yes, that should not be an issue :) If your skin is still a bit sensitive and you are working with an Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) formulation you can give it a day in between.
This video helped me very much so thank you! But I have a question can I use the ordinary Hyaluronic acid before or after the peeling solution or will it irritate my skin?
You can use it after the peeling solution. Hyaluronic acid is a sugar. It is not be confused with other acids like salicylic or glycolic acids, which exfoliate away dead skin cells.
Yes, Mandelic Acid 10% is gentle, so you could still use the peeling solution once or twice a week if needed. Don't use Mandelic Acid the day you use the peel! :) I included it in this video (it also has Mandelic Acid in the guide) : Can I use The Ordinary AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution with Glycolic, Lactic or Salicylic Acid: th-cam.com/video/uDkmG9mInAs/w-d-xo.html
Hi Melissa! I have a question: can I apply niacinamide and hyaluronic acid after the peeling solution? Thank you for all your very interesting video!!❤️
Gold standard channel for The Ordinary products. Glad I came across this channel. I had a query. Suppose I use AHA+BHA peel today evening, when next can I use Salicylic Acid cleanser??? Since I wud skip that on the day of peeling.
The Inkey List Salicylic Acid cleanser. Rest of my routine includes Niacinamide n Zinc. And have ordered Alpha Arbutin which I will add to my routine after some months.
Hi, so I just bought all of these ordinary products and I can not figure out my am and pm routine because I know some of these should no be mixed. Do you think you could help me figure out a schedule? AHA 30% + BHA 2# peeling mask hyaluronic acid 2% + B5 niacinamide 10% + zinc 1% lactic acid 10% + HA Glycolic acid 7% toning solution natural moisturizing factors + HA I also have lots of break outs and Scars on my face. Thank you!! ☺️
Hey😊 AM Routine: - Cleanse - Hyaluronic Acid - Niacinamide - Natural Moisturizing Factors - SPF PM Routine: - Cleanse - Lactic Acid or Glycolic Acid (one of them and use it 1-3 times per week) - Hyaluronic Acid - Natural Moisturizing Factors PM Routine (1-2 times per week): - Cleanse - Peeling Solution - Hyaluronic Acid - Natural Moisturizing Factors Please do not use the Peeling Solution in the same when using either Glycolic Acid or Lactic Acid. Also, do not use Glycolic Acid and Lactic Acid in the same routine. The general rule of thumb for order of application is: 1. Water-based serums 2. Anhydrous Solutions and Oil Formulations 3. Lotions & Creams & suspensions Step 1: Cleanse Step 2: Toner Step 3: Exfoliant Step 4: Serum(s) Step 5: Moisturiser Step 6: SPF (AM) 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!! 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. ❤ Niacinamide can be used in conjunction with retinoids sunscreens, hydroxy acids, and other ingredients without concern for cross-reactivity. Please note that with any active ingredient that affects skin behaviour, there can be an initial purging period during which breakouts are normal. Gradually incorporating one new product into your regimen at a time and applying test patches first to see what works best for your skin. 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. Hyaluronic acid is a sugar. It is not be confused with other acids like salicylic or glycolic acids, which exfoliate away dead skin cells.
@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet Hi! I have one more question lol! So for the nights that I don’t use the lactic acid or the glycolic acid would i only do cleanser, hyaluronic acid, and the. moisturizer?
Hey! :) Use Tretinoin in the evening on its own. Do not use Tretinoin when using the Peeling Solution. You can use the other serums daily in the AM. See here: Order of Application And Layering For Skincare with Infographics, Waiting Times and Example Routines: th-cam.com/video/ADWu7oSBLFc/w-d-xo.html How To Use The Ordinary AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution | Full & In-Depth Demonstration: th-cam.com/video/wSY0pYcy8KY/w-d-xo.html
I have sensitive skin. The first time I tried it, I used it for 3 minutes. It burned & was itchy, but after I washed it off, my skin was totally fine. It didn't even turn it pink. I was thinking of going up 1 minute each week until I hit 10 minutes. What do you think? Will my skin be okay? I did a test patch on my inner arm for 10 minutes & felt nothing. I guess the skin on my face is way more sensitive.
The patch test on your arm is mainly there to protect you against any severe side effects, but that does not mean that it can not burn or sting on other areas of your face. Your nerf endings may be more sensitive, and the skin is generally thinner. You can try to use it again; however, if you are sensitive to glycolic acid/lactic acid (which is in there), you may not tolerate it at all. You need to test it, but I wouldn't use it again when it's burning and or stinging.
I purchased the SA cleanser and I find it very strong but I googled the percentage of salicylic acid and it’s only 2%. Thank you for going over a procedure for using the AHA mask. I’ve been a little afraid to try it.
Yes, that's fine! :) However, my best advice is always to keep it as simple as possible after the peeling solution such as using something hydrating/moisturising after.
Hello, you explained it super. Please can you recommend us also a Make up cream(foundation) that we can use it after some days so not to damage after this peeling our skin? Thank you .
@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet thank you really for your quick reply. I will try it. You really help a lot of people that have problems with their skins by these videos 👍
I used it for the first time I did the reaction test and I was ok. .. One of my eye is red . like a Pink eye it don't hurt but I was wondering if it could be a reaction to it ???
Hm, it certainly could. Did you avoid the eye area? Also when having such issues and the problem does not go away always consult a professional in your area :)
A whitish color? It is more like a pink color that you see when you apply the product and that is due to the presence of the natural red pigment derived from the antioxidant-rich ingredient, Tasmanian pepperberry. And yes it foams.
Hi, you’re awesome! Need your help… After using the AHA 30% BHA 2% and washing off, can I then use Ascorbic Acid 8% + Alpha Arbuthnot 2%. Can’t seen to find any video on this. Thanks
Love this thank you ♥️ Also i wanna ask , I've been using niacinamide and aha+bha for awhile now and its doing great to my face but starting last month my face starting to breakout and I've been doing research about my acne type and everything and most of it said the best way to treat the acne is using retinol or benzoyl peroxide but both of them cannot mix with the ordinary product and I'm scared to change my skincare can u please help me 😭 Sorry for the long explanation 🙏
Hello Erika, Hm, who said so? They can be mixed because I am doing this every day for about three months now. 😆 I use a cream that includes 4%Benzoyl Peroxide 0,5% Retinol 2% Mandelic Acid, and 2% Lactic Acid. I only used it to spot treat the stubborn pimples/acne that I had on my forehead and chin. It worked pretty well, and it looks like they are not coming back. 🤷🏼♀️ I do not recommend using them simultaneously, but I used it in the evening. In the morning, I record my videos, and I am using it combined with The Ordinary products. I also used the cream in combination with Niacinamide, Hyaluronic Acid. I avoided mainly the peptides, strong acids, and vitamin c when I applied the cream. So it is working. 😀 I talked about it in this video: The Ordinary Before and After Acne With Pictures 4 Months: th-cam.com/video/NKi4Psgho_A/w-d-xo.html
@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet thanks for replying ❤️ i have sensitive and acne prone skin. Because of Rosacea it gets red and is irritated pretty easily.
can you use TOO much of this product? cause all these youtubers/tik tokers be putting this mask until their entire face is blood red 💀 when i put it on i can barely see it lmao
Well, I assume that they only use it to sell the product, so that it looks better and that more people buy it. But not sure I never had TikTok... 😉 I think that you can put too much on it, but it may not be harmful. Not sure, but you do not need much, and you will get the same effect and safe money :)
Hey! :) You can use Hyaluronic Acid, Niacinamide and Alpha Arbutin after the Peeling Solution. Although Hyaluronic Acid would probably be the best option as it just adds hydration to the skin. Have a look at the videos below: How to use The Ordinary Retinol 0,2% in Squalane: th-cam.com/video/AbAuQ0o9Y7M/w-d-xo.html How to use The Ordinary Lactic Acid 5% or 10% + HA: th-cam.com/video/xbHTGI7XQ1k/w-d-xo.html How To Use The Ordinary AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution | Full & In-Depth Demonstration: th-cam.com/video/wSY0pYcy8KY/w-d-xo.html You can have more than one PM routine.
Since the area is sensitive and therefore it may sting or burn, especially if you plan on using it more often, it tends to irritate the skin quickly. If you only use the solution occasionally, you can do it, of course. Also, many young people are using it, they may not need it in the first place, so it tends to irritate it even more.
The best tutorial I have seen on this thank you brilliant also can I please come and live in your bathroom that’s a cracking set of goodies you have on your shelf!!👏🙏👏
@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet I’m packing a bag now I just want to bring all my potions and have a play you’ve got some serious smarts are you an ambassador for the O?
Quick questions, how long should I give myself a rest from acids, and peptides before I start using this for the first time? A day or two days, once I start using this 30% AHA, product for a month or two.. You mentioned avoiding acids, and peptides in any of my products, what about my Vitamin CEF product and my nightly Adapalene? Can I use these still? Or should I use these at night, if only using THO 30% AHA in the mornings twice a week? Thank you for your video.
Peptides shouldn't be used in the same routine as they do not like an acidic environment. The concern is that the AHA+BHA Peel lowers your skin's pH; therefore, the peptides may break down when used immediately after. That acidic environment is good for Vitamin C (theoretically) but can also give you more irritation. So I recommend avoiding pure vitamin c (ascorbic acid serums after the peel) same goes for Adapalene; they do not conflict directly but may increase the chances of sensitivity. So my advice is to use them when not using the peel and maybe give the skin a rest for 1-2 days after the peel to reduce irritation (especially if you do it constantly). It may not be an issue when using the peel now and then.
Amazing video, very clear and thorough, thank you so much! I'm planning to buy this product for months now, but afraid that it would clash with my favorite aloe vera gel that I used every night before sleep, because the gel (from Nature Republic) has a small percent of alcohol in it. I have premature menopause (I lost both my ovaries due to cysts in 2013) and lately my skin started to look dull and wrinkly due to stress from taking care of my very ill and disabled parents. The only products that always suits me are rosehip oil and aloe vera gel (I put it in the fridge), and I don't want to stop using them. Can I use them with The Ordinary AHA BHA, or should I not use both in that particular night? ❤❤❤
@@daniyalkhudadad3792 Well, if you are already using it for that long, you will likely not have any issues. But I suggest using the BHA and the retinol in a different routine. And do not use it after the peel.
This video saveddd me! But i have a question. Can I/should I use the hyaluronic acid 2% +B5 after the peel? I’m buying the peeling serum very soon so i want to be prepared with moisturizers and after care treatments. A few more questions haha; Can i use carotene serum after as well? And can i cleanse my face with micellar water first? Thank you, and again this video is so helpful!💕💕💕
Yes, however, I recommend getting The Ordinary Marine Hyaluronics instead :) What carotene serum do you use? I'm not sure if you can use that one afterwards since I've never used such a serum myself to test it. Yes, that's fine :)
Hi Melissa thank you for your informative videos. Pls can I use Ambi fade cream or doctor Rashel vitamin face cream after the ordinary peeling solution? Thanks :)
I have a question, the hydrating facial cleanser from cerave that you presented says it has 3 essential ceramides and hyaluronic acid, is that one ok to use?
Hi I find it very hard to hear the name of the product from The ordinary as you used after the acid treatment. Is there a list somewhere? Still thanks for a great video! It made me want to try it.
Hi ms.Melissa about moisturizer on the last of the Routine i only have Cerave Moisturizing Cream, is this okay? That La roche posay i will buy that soon we have that here in Germany 🙋🏻♀️
@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet also, on days of using retinol, can I follow this process cleanser, snail mucin, retinol, alpha arbutin, and moisturizer? Thanks in advance
Hi melissa !!! I was wondering, while using all of these products, can I also use CeraVe Foaming Facial Cleansing Bar and CeraVe Daily Moisturizing Lotion as a cleanser and moisturizer ???
hi! i know you said that we should avoid a cleanser that has word “salicylic acid” on the product before we could use the AHA BHA peeling solution. but i have been using COSRX SA cleanser for a while and i have been looking it up that it only has 0,5% of SA on it. is it okay to use the cleanser or its better to use other cleanser that is for hydrating instead before applying the AHA BHA?
Well, technically, it's best to avoid them because they're often already a bit drying, and their pH is usually lower. This can make the skin barrier more sensitive. However, the one you mentioned has a higher pH, so it shouldn't be an issue. Still, it would be best to use something like the Beauty of Joseon Green Plum Cleanser or another hydrating gel-to-foam cleanser beforehand.
ahh, i see. i havent been using any other cleanser at all after using the one that i have, but i guess i would try the cleanser you have mentioned. thank you for your response, i appreciate so much!❤
By the way, thank you for the tip on using a makeup brush! I found one at my 99 Cents Store, and it made application so much easier.

Out of all the Ordinary Acids, Mandelic Acid is the gentlest as it penetrates slower into the skin and then Lactic Acid 5% would be the second mildest...or using a BHA leave-on exfoliant which is great if you are suffering from blemishes, have sensitive-oil skin😊
But yeah, you can start using the peeling solution for only a few minutes at first before leaving it on the skin for those full 10min so that your skin has time to adjust😊
Glad that I could help😊
You are amazing so well explained and love the fact that you put together a list of products that one should NOT use with or right after the peel. Also, the suggestions are superb. Like to start slowly with 3 minutes....Love the way you test the products. BEST!!!!!
Thank you for your feedback! I'm glad that you like my style of skincare videos!❤️
Yay i found this video. Thanks for making these instructional videos and linking your other videos into each other. I'm learning so much from you 🧡
Glad that they are helpful!🥰
She's such an amazing TH-camr! Her videos are always clear and concise.
YOUR FACE LOOKS SO GOOD MELISSA.
Thank you🥰
Soooo I just used this product for the first time and I fell in love with it. I followed your other youtube video that shows what products might conflict with this one. (Very informative videos btw!)
My mistake was not watching this one first, where you talk about not using a cleanser beforehand that contains certain acids. 😳(I used the pur see no more cleanser.) Luckily, no irratation was caused and I used the ordinary moisturizer at the end. Hopefully this won't damage my skin or anything. Thank you so much for these videos! Now I know to watch them all beforehand and not while I'm actually just applying the product. Lol
Hey, well no that's why I said high% of acids. Most cleansers have very little to none acids in their (even if they say so). It's mostly marketing. But there are some powerful cleansers on the market that include 2-12% of acids. They may be very irritating. ;)
@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet ahhh okay. Phew, thank gosh! I dodged that bullet. Haha thank you for your response!
You are so detailed. I totally enjoyed this. You deserve an accolade. Thank you.

Really really good 👍🏼. Very helpful video, it’s long but very helpful. Love your accent and the tone of your voice and that you don’t make squeaky voices and you keep it very naturally. It’s a pleasure to watch you and listen to you. I didn’t know what to use after the pilling and I’m so glad I came across your video because it made it very clear what to use. Thank you very much. I subscribed to your channel. Wish you a lot of success.

Thanks melissa! Ur videos are completely very informative! Its my first day using the ordinary products and i depend everything on ur videos. Thanks! Godbless!
Thank you🥰 I'm glad that my videos can help you with the application of the Ordinary products😊
Your videos are always informative and your skin is looking 👌🏾. I have just finished using my AHA BHA peeling solution right now. I use it on Fridays only. Works great for me.
Hey Doreen :) Thank you. Have you seen some great results 🤔?
@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet First, it does not break me out - my skin breaks out easily if the ingredients are not suitable for my skin, also it makes my skin soft immediately after use.
@@doreencharles2383 Well, that's good!😊 Yes, it does leave the skin so soft and even🥰
For how long have you been using the peeling solution?
@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet August 1 this year (every Friday) with other The Ordinary products.
@@doreencharles2383 Wow, you used it up pretty quickly; it takes me a few months to empty it. 🤔
I just bought the AHA BHA peeling solution and the Niacinamide, and I was wondering how to use it because I'm scared that I might burn my skin. I am so glad I stumbled on your video. It really helped answer my questions and it really made me understand the "science" behind these acids because I admit I wasn't well-versed about these acids. I just know that they are good for acne-prone skin that's why I started to invest in products with AHA/BHA. Thank you so much!! Your videos are really informative! So much love from Philippines.
Just keep in mind that these serums are not acne treatments; many people promote it that way, but they can help to some extent since BHA can unclog the pores, and because the solution is making it acidic, the bacteria may have a hard time. But if you are looking for acne treatments, look for Benzoyl Peroxide cleansers or Retinoids (adapalene)
@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet what AM/PM routine and products do you recommend if you are trying to get rid of acne?!

Hi Melissa! When do you start your 10 minute timer? From the first application or after you've finished covering your whole face?

@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet and plz tell me how can I use peeling solution from the ordinary and toner from ordinary plxx
@@vish5636 I have a guide for this, which includes examples. You can see it here:
Can I use The Ordinary AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution with Glycolic, Lactic or Salicylic Acid
th-cam.com/video/uDkmG9mInAs/w-d-xo.html
Hi Melissa, your videos are always so informative and lovely to watch.
One question, is the listed conflict items with this peeling solution to avoid for the only night that you used this peeling solution? Or should we avoid it for maybe 3 days or more?
I am scared it might be a bit too powerful until the conflicted items might still be affected after a night of resting or so
It's only during the same routine. It is because your skin may become sensitive or the pH is too low, and therefore it can burn or sting on the skin, and some products can have a chemical reaction so that they will be less effective.
But that is something that I can emphasize a bit more in my videos when doing such a video.
@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet haha, your video are informative enough already, if viewers need more information, they can always ask you like I did.
Really appreciated your reply and attention you pay to these comments. Thanks a lot
🥰
Wonderful video Melissa,.... I think using a brush gives it a more luxurious...spa type feeling...to the application. I am glad you emphasize not to use it longer than recommended. After the use of acids... any kind, I usually go right away with a very gentle serum...like the marine hydruolics,niacinamide and just a good moisturizer....😃
Hey Manuel🤗
Thank you!🥰
Yes, that's true like a spa day at home, haha🧖🏼♀️
Yeah, it's so important to mention everything about the peeling solution as it is a strong mask - no doubt!

Is it safe to use beauty of joseon alpha arbutin after aha bha pha peel?
Yes, but if you have sensitive skin, using other potent active ingredients afterward might not be the best option. ;)
@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet I'm oily acne prone
@@GamerzWorldTamil Yeah, but I meant if your skin is generally more sensitive. So, if it's not ideal, try using it on other days instead. :)
I m using neutrogena water gel as a moisturizer after peeling solution is it ok ?? Coz neutrogena water gel contains hayaluronic acid ...
Yeah, 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.
Thx u so much ☺️
u r ❤️ ....
Thank you for the information Melissa
I also want to know if I incorporate vitc serum with alpha arbutin the following day after the peeling solution
yes, that should not be an issue :) If your skin is still a bit sensitive and you are working with an Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) formulation you can give it a day in between.
@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet thank you for your swift reply☺️ I really appreciate

Hi
thank you very much.
can you please tell me? a person who is already using mendalic acud for peeling can use this ordinary solution?
Yes, Mandelic Acid 10% is gentle, so you could still use the peeling solution once or twice a week if needed. Don't use Mandelic Acid the day you use the peel! :)

Hi Melissa! I have a question: can I apply niacinamide and hyaluronic acid after the peeling solution? Thank you for all your very interesting video!!❤️
Hey, yes you can. Make sure to apply Hyaluronic Acid before Niacinamide :)
Hi Melissa, can I also use the Amino Acids after the Peeling solution after HA, Niacinamide and Alpha Arbutrin? Thank you so much!
Gold standard channel for The Ordinary products. Glad I came across this channel. I had a query. Suppose I use AHA+BHA peel today evening, when next can I use Salicylic Acid cleanser??? Since I wud skip that on the day of peeling.
Hey :) what cleanser do you have?
The Inkey List Salicylic Acid cleanser.
Rest of my routine includes Niacinamide n Zinc. And have ordered Alpha Arbutin which I will add to my routine after some months.
You can use it the next day! I just recommend using a Gentle Cleanser before using the Peeling Solution :)
Thanks a lot.
Hi, so I just bought all of these ordinary products and I can not figure out my am and pm routine because I know some of these should no be mixed. Do you think you could help me figure out a schedule?
AHA 30% + BHA 2# peeling mask
hyaluronic acid 2% + B5
niacinamide 10% + zinc 1%
lactic acid 10% + HA
Glycolic acid 7% toning solution
natural moisturizing factors + HA
I also have lots of break outs and Scars on my face.
Thank you!! ☺️
Hey😊
AM Routine:
- Cleanse
- Hyaluronic Acid
- Niacinamide
- Natural Moisturizing Factors
- SPF
PM Routine:
- Cleanse
- Lactic Acid or Glycolic Acid (one of them and use it 1-3 times per week)
- Hyaluronic Acid
- Natural Moisturizing Factors
PM Routine (1-2 times per week):
- Cleanse
- Peeling Solution
- Hyaluronic Acid
- Natural Moisturizing Factors
Please do not use the Peeling Solution in the same when using either Glycolic Acid or Lactic Acid. Also, do not use Glycolic Acid and Lactic Acid in the same routine.
The general rule of thumb for order of application is:
1. Water-based serums
2. Anhydrous Solutions and Oil Formulations
3. Lotions & Creams & suspensions
Step 1: Cleanse
Step 2: Toner
Step 3: Exfoliant
Step 4: Serum(s)
Step 5: Moisturiser
Step 6: SPF (AM)
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!!
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. ❤
Niacinamide can be used in conjunction with retinoids sunscreens, hydroxy acids, and other ingredients without concern for cross-reactivity.
Please note that with any active ingredient that affects skin behaviour, there can be an initial purging period during which breakouts are normal. Gradually incorporating one new product into your regimen at a time and applying test patches first to see what works best for your skin.
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.
Hyaluronic acid is a sugar. It is not be confused with other acids like salicylic or glycolic acids, which exfoliate away dead skin cells.
@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet Ok!!! thank you sooo much 🙂 skin care can be soo confusing sometimes lol 😣
@@hadleyyr8958 everything takes time. 😀
@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet Hi! I have one more question lol! So for the nights that I don’t use the lactic acid or the glycolic acid would i only do cleanser, hyaluronic acid, and the. moisturizer?

I have sensitive skin. The first time I tried it, I used it for 3 minutes. It burned & was itchy, but after I washed it off, my skin was totally fine. It didn't even turn it pink. I was thinking of going up 1 minute each week until I hit 10 minutes. What do you think? Will my skin be okay? I did a test patch on my inner arm for 10 minutes & felt nothing. I guess the skin on my face is way more sensitive.
The patch test on your arm is mainly there to protect you against any severe side effects, but that does not mean that it can not burn or sting on other areas of your face. Your nerf endings may be more sensitive, and the skin is generally thinner. You can try to use it again; however, if you are sensitive to glycolic acid/lactic acid (which is in there), you may not tolerate it at all. You need to test it, but I wouldn't use it again when it's burning and or stinging.
@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet So I'm not supposed to feel anything at all? Thank you for replying.
No, that's individual ;)
I purchased the SA cleanser and I find it very strong but I googled the percentage of salicylic acid and it’s only 2%. Thank you for going over a procedure for using the AHA mask. I’ve been a little afraid to try it.
So can i use niacinamide 10% + zinc 1% after the peeling?, thank you so much
Yes, that's fine! :) However, my best advice is always to keep it as simple as possible after the peeling solution such as using something hydrating/moisturising after.
Can I use cerave pm facial moisturizing lotion after the peeling solution?
@@onyerisylvia3469 yes you can :)

I used it for the first time I did the reaction test and I was ok. .. One of my eye is red . like a Pink eye it don't hurt but I was wondering if it could be a reaction to it ???

@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet thanks . 😊 .
Hi does it slightly foam or does it give a whitish color while applying?
A whitish color? It is more like a pink color that you see when you apply the product and that is due to the presence of the natural red pigment derived from the antioxidant-rich ingredient, Tasmanian pepperberry. And yes it foams.
@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet Great , thanks a Ton fr replying, I was worried a bit seeing it foaming slightly on face while applying ..

Hi, you’re awesome! Need your help… After using the AHA 30% BHA 2% and washing off, can I then use Ascorbic Acid 8% + Alpha Arbuthnot 2%. Can’t seen to find any video on this. Thanks
It's generally not recommended to use it afterward as it may irritate the skin. It's best to use it on days when you are not using the peel.
@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet thank you so much for your quick response.
Love this thank you ♥️
Also i wanna ask , I've been using niacinamide and aha+bha for awhile now and its doing great to my face but starting last month my face starting to breakout and I've been doing research about my acne type and everything and most of it said the best way to treat the acne is using retinol or benzoyl peroxide but both of them cannot mix with the ordinary product and I'm scared to change my skincare can u please help me 😭
Sorry for the long explanation 🙏
Hello Erika,
Hm, who said so? They can be mixed because I am doing this every day for about three months now. 😆
I use a cream that includes 4%Benzoyl Peroxide 0,5% Retinol 2% Mandelic Acid, and 2% Lactic Acid.
I only used it to spot treat the stubborn pimples/acne that I had on my forehead and chin. It worked pretty well, and it looks like they are not coming back. 🤷🏼♀️
I do not recommend using them simultaneously, but I used it in the evening. In the morning, I record my videos, and I am using it combined with The Ordinary products. I also used the cream in combination with Niacinamide, Hyaluronic Acid. I avoided mainly the peptides, strong acids, and vitamin c when I applied the cream. So it is working. 😀
I talked about it in this video:

can you use TOO much of this product?
cause all these youtubers/tik tokers be putting this mask until their entire face is blood red 💀 when i put it on i can barely see it lmao
Well, I assume that they only use it to sell the product, so that it looks better and that more people buy it. But not sure I never had TikTok... 😉
I think that you can put too much on it, but it may not be harmful. Not sure, but you do not need much, and you will get the same effect and safe money :)
hi dear Melissa when can I use peeling solution day or night and can I use with retinol hyaluronic acid niacinamide alpha arbutin and lactic acid
Hey! :)
You can use Hyaluronic Acid, Niacinamide and Alpha Arbutin after the Peeling Solution. Although Hyaluronic Acid would probably be the best option as it just adds hydration to the skin.

Gnu follow. Thank you so much for your help May God continue blessing you🙏🫶🏼

Thank you for this video. Why aren't you putting it around your mouth? And you even specified to avoid this area.
Since the area is sensitive and therefore it may sting or burn, especially if you plan on using it more often, it tends to irritate the skin quickly. If you only use the solution occasionally, you can do it, of course.
Also, many young people are using it, they may not need it in the first place, so it tends to irritate it even more.

@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet I’m packing a bag now I just want to bring all my potions and have a play you’ve got some serious smarts are you an ambassador for the O?
@@TimeToEvolve101 haha okay :)
No, I think it doesn't even exist; as far as I know, the Ordinary does not do any sponsorships.
Quick questions, how long should I give myself a rest from acids, and peptides before I start using this for the first time? A day or two days, once I start using this 30% AHA, product for a month or two.. You mentioned avoiding acids, and peptides in any of my products, what about my Vitamin CEF product and my nightly Adapalene? Can I use these still? Or should I use these at night, if only using THO 30% AHA in the mornings twice a week?
Thank you for your video.
Peptides shouldn't be used in the same routine as they do not like an acidic environment. The concern is that the AHA+BHA Peel lowers your skin's pH; therefore, the peptides may break down when used immediately after. That acidic environment is good for Vitamin C (theoretically) but can also give you more irritation. So I recommend avoiding pure vitamin c (ascorbic acid serums after the peel) same goes for Adapalene; they do not conflict directly but may increase the chances of sensitivity.
So my advice is to use them when not using the peel and maybe give the skin a rest for 1-2 days after the peel to reduce irritation (especially if you do it constantly). It may not be an issue when using the peel now and then.
Amazing video, very clear and thorough, thank you so much! I'm planning to buy this product for months now, but afraid that it would clash with my favorite aloe vera gel that I used every night before sleep, because the gel (from Nature Republic) has a small percent of alcohol in it. I have premature menopause (I lost both my ovaries due to cysts in 2013) and lately my skin started to look dull and wrinkly due to stress from taking care of my very ill and disabled parents. The only products that always suits me are rosehip oil and aloe vera gel (I put it in the fridge), and I don't want to stop using them. Can I use them with The Ordinary AHA BHA, or should I not use both in that particular night? ❤❤❤
Hey! :)
Yes, that's fine!
Yes, stress and changes in the body can influence the skin dramatically!
Could we use the peel on the upper lip? I have a lot of pigmentation there…? Thanks! Great informative video!
I highly recommend not doing that; even around the lips is questionable.

hi! i know you said that we should avoid a cleanser that has word “salicylic acid” on the product before we could use the AHA BHA peeling solution. but i have been using COSRX SA cleanser for a while and i have been looking it up that it only has 0,5% of SA on it. is it okay to use the cleanser or its better to use other cleanser that is for hydrating instead before applying the AHA BHA?
Well, technically, it's best to avoid them because they're often already a bit drying, and their pH is usually lower. This can make the skin barrier more sensitive. However, the one you mentioned has a higher pH, so it shouldn't be an issue. Still, it would be best to use something like the Beauty of Joseon Green Plum Cleanser or another hydrating gel-to-foam cleanser beforehand.
ahh, i see. i havent been using any other cleanser at all after using the one that i have, but i guess i would try the cleanser you have mentioned. thank you for your response, i appreciate so much!❤
