chiaha chigo I’m not an expert or professional, but I would surmise that because the Niacinamide serum is water-based and the arbutin oil-based, the Niacinamide serum goes first. A Biochemist, Kenna, has a video on YT about how to layer products, and she mentions these two products from The Ordinary in demonstrating.
Literally all of her screenshots are from their website. It’s all on their website. What to use AM or PM. Sample routines. Click on a product to see if it can’t be layered with something. That’s all it takes.
it would be so cool to see you select some The Ordinary routines for guests on your channel, maybe people with different specific skin types and why you put together those routines :) this was really cool! ah!
Pm that is also what makes the company so problematic in my opinion. you have to buy and layer so many products to actually get long term results that an entire evening routine probably costs you around the same price as higher end serums and moisturizers. Because the average consumer doesn’t have enough knowledge about ingredients and how to layer them, there is a high risk that you end up doing more damage than good, despite seeing quick results. It bothers me that Estée Lauder is behind the company, because at the end of a day you’re still supporting a monopolistic enterprise that has a lot of shady business going on. You shouldn’t have to watch multiple videos to feel comfortable using your skincare. Also their formulations (I’m a chemistry student) are very basic, you don’t know where Estée Lauder gets their raw materials from and i doubt that they have quality control when they order huge batches and hundreds of thousands of units, since they’re not legally obligated to do so. Having brands like The Ordinary allows them to pretty much dictate and control the market, they set prices for both luxury and cheap skincare, crippling small “Made in America” brands. Frankly, I don’t understand why she supports them.
@@jennistone8740 thank you so much for the detailed information. I have been doing my research and taking notes for days. but it was still confusing and as you said I was afraid of damaging my skin by mixing active compounds. I think I will order some retinol and moisturizer from la roche posay and call it my skincare routine :D
Pm La Roche Posay belongs to L’Oréal, so their quality control is probably similarly unreliable, but they own some of the best patents for certain ingredients and formulas. LRP is also more consumer friendly than The Ordinary. I’m French and it’s probably the most popular skincare brand here. I highly recommend their Sunscreens (most modern filters on the market) and their Toleriane line. I haven’t tried their retinol product, but I just checked the list of ingredients and its pretty straight to the point. Just make sure you build up your tolerance and use something more hydrating in the morning. Most importantly, don’t forget your sunscreen! If you’re interested in Retinol, I recommend Paula’s Choice. She has a great guide on her website and offers different percentages for beginners and long-term users. Hope this helped. Good luck :)
I know that you will never see this comment but I still wanted to say how thankful I am. You do a lot of work for us and you try to inform us about a lot of important things so that we can avoid making mistakes which can make our skin worse. You’re a literal inspiration for me and I love your TH-cam videos. Thank you so much for your great content!
I would love to see a video where you recommend a daytime and nighttime routine (with step 1, step 2,...) for people with a few different needs. For example I do want to get rid of my acne scars and hyperpigmentation, but also want to prevent wrinkles. It can get a little overwhelming, because a lot of the recommendations only focus on one issue. ❤️
Honestly, you’re the best skincare channel apart from Hyram and James Welsh. I’ve been binge watching all your videos and I love them so much. Thank you for educating me on skincare ingredients and I’ve learnt a lot that I wish I learnt before and you’ve broken down a lot of misconceptions about skincare.
You should make a video with step by step favorite products of the ordinary with a routine. One for night and one for morning. I’ve watched all videos of the ordinary and I’m still confused! I wish I had someone to just tell me “okay so you use this one first then this one and so on. Something that helps brighten, acne, hydrate and wrinkles for day and night!
The thing is, I work at night so some of my routines are switched up. Basing it off the ingredients and which shouldn't be used when the sun is shining is usually the only way I can make things work. Thank you for your when to use recommendation videos because you rock and you are a person who wants everyone to feel beautiful in their skin.
Not sure how I ended up here but boy am I glad I did! My esthetician recommended The Ordinary to me and I love their products and their PRICES! But they have so many products and it's so confusing which ones to buy and you helped me solve that issue. THANK YOU!!!
could you do an in depth dive into and how each product should/shouldn't be used and what pairs well with each product and what doesn't. I'd watch it.... even if it was many hours long.
I’m not really a person that takes care of herself! But after watching your videos I have full trust in what you recommend, Unfortunately but fortunately I’m on antibiotics for my acne (internal and topical) makes me dizzy and seasick but I never seen my face so smooth and soft which motivated me to start being picky with what I put on my face … and like I said Your videos are very interesting, affordable and work! I’ve been using retin A to sleep 2 a week , clindamycin day and night , elta md 45spf sunscreen and washing my face with Curology face cleansing foam and rarely their moisturizer which I really like but also don’t know what your review on their products are so far !! Anyway.. love to learn more and be able to take more time for myself
omg this is *exactly* the video I needed! Just ordered my first products from the ordinary but am looking to expand once I know how these products work with my skin!
Thanks!!! Much needed video! I'm trying to figure out how to Incorporate argireline into my routine. I use euk 134 in the am and trention in the pm aswell as growth factors in both am and pm
Can we have a video where you pick one of your favourites from each group like cleanser and acid and peptides and retinoids etc and then show us in what order should each be used while doing the skin care routine. That would be really helpful coz it really matters in what order do we use the product.
I love all your videos , I would be grateful if you do one with what ordinary products to use for 40+ skin Im at a loss here with what to use that is actually beneficial for me , thank you so much 😊
Omg my ordinary products came this morning and I am so excited to use them this is exactly what I need to make sure I am using them right 😝 such a lifesaver 🙌🏻
Cassandra, thank you SO much for all these videos on The Ordinary. I’ve wanted to use this line for so long, but felt overwhelmed by all the product options. 💚💚💚
I started watching your video really kinda lost with how the ordinary skin care products worked. Thank you so much, your videos really help me understand how to use them and what products would work for my skin.
Hey! My best advice for this brand is to simply email them directly about your skin concerns and they will make a customized regiment for you and YOUR skin care concerns. They provide an AM and PM (1) & PM (2) routine.
Superb, I'm a lover of the ordinary but every time I pop into the shop I am overwhelmed and confused, now I have found you I shall be obsessing over all the guidance you give. Thank you for sharing, love from England xx
I personally use a witch hazel toner after a basic soap, (any natural soap) then salicylic acid 2% then niacinamide 10% and zinc. Then finish it off with a oil free moisturizer
Violet Shotter is the niacinamide good for EXTREMELY sensitive skin? My skin care routine is cerave cleanser and Cerave night lotion and morning sunscreen lotion (depends PM or AM)! Please help!
Woah!!! Brain bombarded!!!! I don't know how you managed to squeeze all that in but you did. When I saw the title I thought "This'll be a long one". That was amazing Cassandra. Concise, straight to the point, loads of info. Defo one to save and revisit a few times to let it all sink into my middle aged brain! Thank you so much for this. Did you ever track down that facial massage video link I sent you?
LOVE LOVE how theres so much useful info in just 10mins. Thank you for being right to the point and this is so helpful cos ive been confused by the many products as well!!! absolutely liking and adding to my playlist!
Someone mentioned in a previous post an app called Skincare Routines and I decided to try it. It's about $2.5 and it's worth it! You can add all the ordinary products you have (and all the other products you have too) and it will put them in the right order for you
So I just purchased these products. I still don't understand how to layer. - Toner - alpha arbutin - lactic acid 5% - vitamin C suspension 30% in silicon - peeling solution (I know I shouldn't mix the lactic acid with the peeling solution)
You're the best skincare TH-camr - the way in which you present is fabulous and your enthusiasm and passion for skincare is enviable in a super positive way. I love your fun & quirky character and I trust in you to deliver me the scientific evidence. In other words, I take your word and purchase and apply the products you've presented. Thank you so much, hugs :)
I really wish I could give you more than a single like and subscribe! I really appreciate your effort and you are one of my favorite TH-camrs Keep the good work going 👍❤️
Cassandra you are Awesome!! I love watching you! Thanks for all the valuable information you give us. I have oily and acne prone skin at 49 yrs old and I have to say what I have used of The Ordinary I love!!!
I just got on the 'Ordinary' road soley because of your highly informative videos on this brand, and there's a lot! Lol. But thank you s much. I tagged you on my Istagram photos, fyi. Cheers!
Can I just say thank you!!!! Thank you! Thank you!!! THANKYOU!!!!! I am 26 years old and I have had spots since I was 11. I was so ashamed of my face I literally got up in the middle of the night to reapply my makeup. I have spent most of lockdown watching your videos and now I have a skin care routine thanks to you. I have worn no makeup for 4 months and thanks to skincare tips I can actually got out the house without anything on my face but mascara. I can’t tell you how much you’ve boosted my confidence and educated me with skin care. I’d love it if you could tell me if I have my regime right if you have an email??? Thanks again life saver!
I love the ordinary I first heard about it on New year's Day and I bought as much of it as I could afford which is quite a lot lol. Thank you for this great review.
I love your videos. Is it possible you could do a video or suggestions on a skincare routine? I've got acne, oily skin and confused about what order to do my products and what products to actually use in the morning/evening? Thanks so much for your videos and I hope you're feeling better x
If i'm using niacinamide in the AM and retanoid's in the PM (3 x a week) and the AHA peel PM (1 x a week), where does vitamin C go in these routines as i've read it reacts badly with both. Very confused!
Hi ! (A Ordinary regime helped me with this routine, same products as you have) AM 🌞 - Cleanser - Niacinamide + Zinc - Moisturiser - SPF (very important when using lots of actives) PM1 🌜 (3x a week) - Cleanse - Retinoid - Moisturiser PM2 🌛 (1x a week) - Cleanse - AHA peel (wash off after 10 mins) - Niacinamide + Zinc - Moisturiser PM3🌛 (3x a week) - Cleanse - Vitamin C - Moisturiser Hope I helped ✌🏻
Hi cassandra, I m using hyperpigmentation products and i just want to check if i am doing it right: Morning: cleanser- alpha arbutin 2% + HA - niacinamide - ascorbyl glucoside solution 12% -moisturizer - SPF night: cleanser - alpha arbutin - azelaic acid 10% - moisturizer
My skin prefers the Marine Hyaluronics over the HA 2% + B5! I think you missed Resveratrol 3% + Ferulic Acid 3% in the antioxidants section. Thank you for this! 👍
I wanted to ask something about the vitamin c...I have and use the vitamin c 23% suspension and I have read that if u pair the vitamin c in the morning before ur sunscreen it can boost the effect of the sunscreen and protect u even more...Is that true? Or should I stick to use vitamin c on the evening?
The Ordinary products in my skincare regimen: The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid The Ordinary Retinol 0.2% The Ordinary Caffeine Solution+EGCG (which I purchased for my dark circles but it started giving me melia and did not make any difference.
I would love if you did this but with what each product would be great to be mixed with (or which step of the routine it is) and what it should be mixed with (if any). So for example, glycolic acid toner - night time, after cleanser, mixes great with --, wait five minutes before you use niacinimide or lactic acid.
Your videos are very very informative though I just found your channel I feel like I can totally rely on this please do a video on if the ordinary products can be used for keratosis pilaris (bumps on shoulder )for scarring.
I LOVE these videos you make about the ordinary! I love the brand but sometimes get confused & have questions about the products & your videos always help thank you!
What is a good suggestion to actually mix the vitamin c powder with? Would the marine Hyaluronics be an appropriate mix? If not, will you recommend one, or possibly a video of why and why nots? You are so amazing! I love all of the science you provide! Thank you!!
@@holwil4895 I didn't really answer it fully though. I'm wondering too now as I don't think there's an issue with it. There's a video on this channel somewhere.... I'm heading off to look for it.
@@ashd7659 Yeah I don't know why they were kept apart tbh. Doesn't seem to be contraindications on website. I think it was because I had got a few things before consultng them and they were trying to fit them in for me!! I've used them together on occasion too but I don't know if one renders other ineffective.
I still can't figure out my skincare ROUTINE🚫 I just order like vitamin c cream Retinol 2% Niacinamide acid/zinc Aha/bha peeling Glycolic acid toner Caffeine Hyaluronic acid 😅😅I'd love to get some help please😘
Zannatul Fardaus girl u and I both.. I do a new routine each week to see what my skin likes. This week for the am I’m using the l asorbic acid in my moisturizer on damp skin. For the pm I’m using the retinoid 5 percent In squalane. Somehow the retinoid in squalane is breaking me out, it might be the mask I’m wearing when I go outside. Not sure.. try a routine each week and see what your skin loves
From your list I would suggest - (what I use and have had great results) AM Daily Niacinamide, Caffeine and vitamin C. All work great together and can boost the effects (caffeine can be used all over the face not just undereye) PM Daily Retinol 2% then follow with the hyaluronic acid and moisturiser. PM every few days or once/twice a week the Glycolic acid toner. You will see at first you probably get a lot of dead skin off your face, after a short while this reduces so you can reduce the number of times you use it. PM once a week The AHA (not the same night as the Glycolic acid toner). I would check your toner, face wash and moisturiser to see if they have hyaluronic acid - they probably do so you can skip that step. If they don't then follow up your retinol with it then moisturise or add to your morning mix (which ever suits you). I hope that helps
@@brianp9483 Thank you love 😘😘 you saved me, btw I heard that niacinamide and vitamin c shouldn't mix together🥺 and caffeine at night, that's so confusing 😭 it's like I'm trying have clear skin but gon make it worse 😰
@@LoveConquersAll888 🤩 wow! Lemme know the results, we are here in experiment😅🤣 and I think retinol 5 percent too high for ya that's why it is breaking out your skin🤒
Zannatul Fardaus tx :) I do believe it’s either the rosemary tomatoe or jojoba I’m in it cause I stopped using it and my face cleared up. Ummm wish they would formulate a new retinol with just squalane 😂
I have a few of the bottles and it’s pretty time consuming to layer them all correctly. Due to the Corona outbreak i work from home so it’s doable. But I’m switching to their NIOD so much easier to handle.
Well, I just made my first The Ordinary purchase.... Let's see how it goes, it's a whole learning curve on how to use these products. Thanks for the the info on how to use the products!
I love the Marine Hyaluronics! I mix it with my morning moisturizer. So much better than Hyaluronic Acid. It doesn’t make my sunscreen and foundation pill. Or I put the caffeine with my moisturizer.
I've been using The Ordinary Niacinamide Solution for a couple of months now, and it has been a total game changer for my oily, acne prone skin - my skin looks better now than it has in years! I cannot believe it costs only $5.90! ❤️
Cassandra could you review the marine hyaluronics serum please ?? 🙏🏻🙏🏻. I don’t know the difference between the hyaluronic acid + B5 and this one. I would love to know your opinion

Should I use my niacinamide before alpha Arbutin or vice verse?

they need to put this on their website!!!!
they list out the recommended time to use it here: theordinary.deciem.com/regimenguide
Monica Case They did.
It's David! Oh my god thank you.
Literally all of her screenshots are from their website. It’s all on their website. What to use AM or PM. Sample routines. Click on a product to see if it can’t be layered with something. That’s all it takes.
It is on their website. with different skin concerns.
it would be so cool to see you select some The Ordinary routines for guests on your channel, maybe people with different specific skin types and why you put together those routines :) this was really cool! ah!
That’s a great idea! I second this comment... took me hours just reading up on what works for oily skin
Same. Please any routine recommendation for acne prone skin and oily skin.
at this point im so confused about the layering of the ordinary products
Pm that is also what makes the company so problematic in my opinion. you have to buy and layer so many products to actually get long term results that an entire evening routine probably costs you around the same price as higher end serums and moisturizers.

I can’t tell you how much you’ve boosted my confidence and educated me with skin care. I’d love it if you could tell me if I have my regime right if you have an email???
Thanks again life saver!
I love the ordinary I first heard about it on New year's Day and I bought as much of it as I could afford which is quite a lot lol. Thank you for this great review.
I love your videos. Is it possible you could do a video or suggestions on a skincare routine? I've got acne, oily skin and confused about what order to do my products and what products to actually use in the morning/evening? Thanks so much for your videos and I hope you're feeling better x
If i'm using niacinamide in the AM and retanoid's in the PM (3 x a week) and the AHA peel PM (1 x a week), where does vitamin C go in these routines as i've read it reacts badly with both. Very confused!
Hi ! (A Ordinary regime helped me with this routine, same products as you have)
AM 🌞
- Cleanser
- Niacinamide + Zinc
- Moisturiser
- SPF (very important when using lots of actives)
PM1 🌜 (3x a week)
- Cleanse
- Retinoid
- Moisturiser
PM2 🌛 (1x a week)
- Cleanse
- AHA peel (wash off after 10 mins)
- Niacinamide + Zinc
- Moisturiser
PM3🌛 (3x a week)
- Cleanse
- Vitamin C
- Moisturiser
Hope I helped ✌🏻
From what I’ve understood, Vitamin C is great in the morning along with your sunscreen. 👍
Hi cassandra, I m using hyperpigmentation products and i just want to check if i am doing it right:
Morning: cleanser- alpha arbutin 2% + HA - niacinamide - ascorbyl glucoside solution 12% -moisturizer - SPF
night: cleanser - alpha arbutin - azelaic acid 10% - moisturizer
Imagine if her and Hyram had a collab. My skin is glowing just thinking about it 😫🙌🏾
My skin prefers the Marine Hyaluronics over the HA 2% + B5! I think you missed Resveratrol 3% + Ferulic Acid 3% in the antioxidants section. Thank you for this! 👍
I wanted to ask something about the vitamin c...I have and use the vitamin c 23% suspension and I have read that if u pair the vitamin c in the morning before ur sunscreen it can boost the effect of the sunscreen and protect u even more...Is that true? Or should I stick to use vitamin c on the evening?
Products You Should Mix From The Ordinary:
@ watch this video, she explains it
She made a video about it, but yes you're right
Yes you can. She explained it. I use mine Vitamin C in morning with a moisturizer.
I would be so grateful for a video about back acne and how to get rid of it :)
The Ordinary products in my skincare regimen:
The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc
The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid
The Ordinary Retinol 0.2%
The Ordinary Caffeine Solution+EGCG (which I purchased for my dark circles but it started giving me melia and did not make any difference.
A very useful video. Should I use night cream after using Lactic Acid 10% + HA for the night?
I would love if you did this but with what each product would be great to be mixed with (or which step of the routine it is) and what it should be mixed with (if any).
So for example, glycolic acid toner - night time, after cleanser, mixes great with --, wait five minutes before you use niacinimide or lactic acid.
Hello! Are there any the ordinary acids that you would recommend to someone with sensitive and dry skin? Thank you! :)
Áine Nic Héil hi i know lactic acid is good for sensitive skin! Its a milder form of chemical exfoliator 😊
Thank you so much for very useful video. Please talk about how to mix the vitamin C powder. The best way to use it. Thank you.
2:54 beautiful eyes
Your videos are very very informative though I just found your channel I feel like I can totally rely on this please do a video on if the ordinary products can be used for keratosis pilaris (bumps on shoulder )for scarring.
I really needed this! Yay!
Just ordered 10 products. Panicked .. then I found this ! 🤩.. you just addded more meaning to my skin life ☺️
Yes you have answered my prayers, dear Goddess
I LOVE these videos you make about the ordinary! I love the brand but sometimes get confused & have questions about the products & your videos always help thank you!
This video is something I was looking for! Sometimes I'm scared to use something during the daytime and this will save me from that :))
What is a good suggestion to actually mix the vitamin c powder with? Would the marine Hyaluronics be an appropriate mix? If not, will you recommend one, or possibly a video of why and why nots? You are so amazing! I love all of the science you provide! Thank you!!
Just wondering can I use the niacinamide 10% + zinc 1% with the buffet in my routine.
I got my regime from the ordinary and they have kept them apart. Buffet am and niacinamide pm
Emer Henry thank you so much 😊
I've been using them together for several months and have had amazing results.
@@holwil4895 I didn't really answer it fully though. I'm wondering too now as I don't think there's an issue with it. There's a video on this channel somewhere.... I'm heading off to look for it.
@@ashd7659 Yeah I don't know why they were kept apart tbh. Doesn't seem to be contraindications on website. I think it was because I had got a few things before consultng them and they were trying to fit them in for me!! I've used them together on occasion too but I don't know if one renders other ineffective.
Oh my goodness! This video is GOLD!! 🙌
I still can't figure out my skincare ROUTINE🚫 I just order like
vitamin c cream
Retinol 2%
Niacinamide acid/zinc
Aha/bha peeling
Glycolic acid toner
Caffeine
Hyaluronic acid
😅😅I'd love to get some help please😘
Zannatul Fardaus girl u and I both.. I do a new routine each week to see what my skin likes. This week for the am I’m using the l asorbic acid in my moisturizer on damp skin. For the pm I’m using the retinoid 5 percent In squalane. Somehow the retinoid in squalane is breaking me out, it might be the mask I’m wearing when I go outside. Not sure.. try a routine each week and see what your skin loves
From your list I would suggest - (what I use and have had great results)
AM Daily Niacinamide, Caffeine and vitamin C. All work great together and can boost the effects (caffeine can be used all over the face not just undereye)
PM Daily Retinol 2% then follow with the hyaluronic acid and moisturiser.
PM every few days or once/twice a week the Glycolic acid toner. You will see at first you probably get a lot of dead skin off your face, after a short while this reduces so you can reduce the number of times you use it.
PM once a week The AHA (not the same night as the Glycolic acid toner).
I would check your toner, face wash and moisturiser to see if they have hyaluronic acid - they probably do so you can skip that step. If they don't then follow up your retinol with it then moisturise or add to your morning mix (which ever suits you). I hope that helps
@@brianp9483 Thank you love 😘😘 you saved me, btw I heard that niacinamide and vitamin c shouldn't mix together🥺 and caffeine at night, that's so confusing 😭 it's like I'm trying have clear skin but gon make it worse 😰
@@LoveConquersAll888 🤩 wow! Lemme know the results, we are here in experiment😅🤣 and I think retinol 5 percent too high for ya that's why it is breaking out your skin🤒
Zannatul Fardaus tx :) I do believe it’s either the rosemary tomatoe or jojoba I’m in it cause I stopped using it and my face cleared up. Ummm wish they would formulate a new retinol with just squalane 😂
Matrixyl 10% + HA wasn't mentioned but it's a holy grail for me. Worked much better that the Buffet; which only broke me out
So basically everything can be used at night, even sunscreen 🧴.
can you also make a retinol guide from ordinary? They have so many and it is kinda confusing what's best for what etc.
10:34 have a nice day, be careful with coronavirus outbreak, congratulation on the vídeo
I have a few of the bottles and it’s pretty time consuming to layer them all correctly. Due to the Corona outbreak i work from home so it’s doable. But I’m switching to their NIOD so much easier to handle.
"Now if only we can figure out the seizures" LOL
Well, I just made my first The Ordinary purchase.... Let's see how it goes, it's a whole learning curve on how to use these products. Thanks for the the info on how to use the products!
Is it just me or did she totally miss the hyaluronic acid products?
Hydrators and oils :)
Exactly. I was looking for this comment. And this is what I clicked on the video for 🤦🏻♀️
I use it day night
Yes I truly thought I was the only one. Thank god for this comment
@@sangidaakther8243 she didnt. its mentioned under hydrators and oils.
Why can't I find the magnesium and ascorbyl phosphate 10% anywhere 😭
It was on their website 2 days ago.
I love the Marine Hyaluronics! I mix it with my morning moisturizer. So much better than Hyaluronic Acid. It doesn’t make my sunscreen and foundation pill. Or I put the caffeine with my moisturizer.
No wonder why there aren't anymore of the ordinary products in stock 💀💅
I GOT SO HAPPY WATCHING THIS!
I've been using The Ordinary Niacinamide Solution for a couple of months now, and it has been a total game changer for my oily, acne prone skin - my skin looks better now than it has in years! I cannot believe it costs only $5.90! ❤️
What other products do you use? I have the same skintype and i would love to hear some recommendations or tips.
@@morganevanherck4694 so far, that is the best product I have ever found for my acne!
YOU ARE SO HELPFUL, THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
What a great video! Just what i was searching for.
Thank you very much for this video ,I like the ordinary brand so much.
Cassandra could you review the marine hyaluronics serum please ?? 🙏🏻🙏🏻. I don’t know the difference between the hyaluronic acid + B5 and this one. I would love to know your opinion
I can not believe how much you recovered from your acne. waou !
please do one of this videos about lush produts
