As doctor passionate about skin care that delivers results and about well-aging, I want to help you quickly and efficiently pick a skin care regime that works, by explaining the science behind skin and by sharing quick product reviews.
I am a big believer that creating a skincare routine that targets your specific concerns is not a matter of your budget. There are many great affordable brands out there: The Inkey List, Good Molecules, Geek & Gorgeous or pixi skincare to name a few of my favorites, and if you know how to combine them, you are well on your way to healthy and happy skin.
Healthy and happy skin does not mean "flawless" - whatever that might be. I have been struggling with acne, hyperpigmentation and postinflammatory erythema (PIH and PIE) for most of my adult life, and it took me a while to figure out that gentle is key. I went through a retinol damaged skin barrier, acne flare ups and sun damage until I finally reached my happy place: With Tretinoin, sunscreen and of course a red lipstick!

Do you have a "heritage product" that was passed on to you from your mother?
Doctor Anne retin A!! My mom used it many years ago, now we both use it and I love it. The best skin I ever had at 40 😃
@@sunshine9993 Such a great skincare item to inherit from your mother!
Chanel#5 for most of the ladies
Cold cream to remove makeup
@@sunshine9993 Hi. What the benefits of that cream and how is it used? During the day or night? And before moisturizer or after?
Hello, I am 23. I work at the Estée Lauder counter in Dillards. I use this serum 2x daily along with the under eye cream at night and the day and night wear moisturizers. Although I may necessarily not need it yet; it has made such a big difference in my skin. I always recommend to all my customers and will definitely buy for my daughter in years to come when she is much older.
I really enjoy it too.
Prevention is better than correction!
So what's the difference
@@blueblackyellow fuck you mean what’s the difference
How long can I use estee Lauder serum
I'm 28 and just started using it, it's amazing my pores are reduced and skin feels so soft it's defiantly worth the money but it's defiantly a treat 😁
For me it is absolutely worth the money, I agree.
I tried this some years ago when my skin was acting up and I was very impressed. I didn't buy it at the time because it was out of my budget, but only that single use from trying it at the store, calmed my skin and made it feel super smooth and hydrated.
That sounds great. Have you found a replacement?
My skin has more volume since I started using this formula both day and night. A little goes a long way. I am def not the type to hype products, but I lovelove Estee Lauders serum, and eye cream as well. Overall a pricey product, but it does the job. So it's a yes for me all the way!
If you see the results, that is what ultimately counts. And as you said, you don't need much, which makes the price more bearable.
Hi , I have used Estée Lauder night repair for thirty years and my skin drank it up and yes my skin at 69 yrs old and it’s stunning and no person realises how old I am, mind you my mother took me Estée Lauder counter at 16 yrs old and mother paid for my skin care until I qualified , so thanks mum , knowing I would buy makeup instead ! So yes my money was spent on Estée Lauder makeup and mums was my skin care ! Bless her . But I can say my skin is beautiful and looks amazing for my age.
However my younger family was treated exactly the same so everyone thinks we have genes to keep us young ! How wrong are they.
But I look back at 69 , and my skin looks amazing thank you Estée Lauder, will I change my skin care absolutely not ! Will I change my primer , foundation , concealer not a chance ! I love all my products and yes I have new back ups in case anytime I can’t rebut . Buts it’s a big tank you to my mother a big thank you to Estée Lauder , and it gives me love for my ski; , so yes ! What else can I say but thank you ! Woul£ I change no Nono
My love to all stay safe take car3 o& your skin it’s the only one you will have ! My love liz from U.K. x
Your mother sounds amazing.
Does this improve skin around eyes
@@uzmaak4891 I don´t really use it specifically around my eyes.
I’ve been using this since I was 22 years. I’m 29 now and always: ALWAYS staff people of different services asks me for my ID, even in the airport they ask me if I’m an “adult” because I should not travel as a youth alone 😅. It works! My skin is wonderful.
Thank you for sharing your experiences.
I’m 23 and I started my skincare 2 years ago. I added this and nighttime repair/ day wear, my skin feels and looks amazing. It’s definitely a bit pricey but it lasts me about 3 months the big bottle so it’s not terrible.
I agree, if it works for you, it is worth the money.
Wow only 3 month. Mine can last half the year or more. But I use a tiny tiny bit cause I'm oily based x
@@dugite007 There are different sizes. I once had the big one, that did last me a lot longer as well.
Just 2 drops does entire face. Really great product.
Yes, you don't need a much. I usually get Lancome holiday box but this year I decided to get Estee Lauder and love the serum an creams. Around Black Friday and Christmas you can get nice sets for better price. My birthday is in December, so good skincare is my Birthday and Christmas presents.
Thank you 😊 Can i use it with Tretinoin in one routine?✨
Yes, you can.
@@DoctorAnne thank you ☺️
@@Ela-pp6zn You are welcome.
Hello, I have a dry skin, so is it safe to use this product twice everyday for morning and night? Also, is it okay to use this product before retinol then moisture?
Yes and yes.
Hi, thanks for the video, do we need to use moisturiser after this serum?
That depends on your skin, but for most skin types yes, I would say a moisturizer afterwards is a good idea.
This works it's the best thing out here ❤ worth EVERY penny ❤
Thank you for sharing your experience.
No one has described this better than you! I always end up buying it bc it’s the only thing that’s helped my redness.
Some things just work.
Same! I got redness too. Oh also, here is another thing that was recommended to me by my dermatologist it's called Cetaphil Redness Relieving Night Moisturizer, it's only 15 bucks but it worked on me. Of course it didn't work overnight, but I started to see good result after i've used half tube. I use this after that serum, then this lotion, then retinol.
@@Commander_HW I have heard good things about the Cetaphil brand, but have not tried anything myself.
can i use my clinique moisturizer after aplying this or no need of moisturizer?
That depends on your skin. Usually it should be followed up by a moisturizer, but if your skin is quite oily and you live in a humid climate, it might be enough on its own.
I've just used this for abt 3 wks now, and wow it had made a huge difference to my skin!
I am glad to hear that. How do you feel it has changed your skin?
@@DoctorAnne i got it as a freebie. It made my skin smooth and hydrated & my pores become smaller. So when I apply my face powder, it just glides 💖
@@aazznnaa Sounds great.
Hi, Dr. Anne is it safe to use this night repair serum and Estée Lauder protectionist rapid brightening ferment 3 vitC serum at the same time? Thank you hoping for your reply.
Yes.
how long it last 50ml please Dr
For me the 50 ml last around 6 months.
@@DoctorAnne thank you.
@@peterbawi1426 You are welcome.
I've been using it years it's fantastic
So good!
hi i have used it for over twenty years i just love it , will i continue to use it absolutely, in fact i use all estee lauder skin care and complexion products , and now a mature lady , with only a few fine lines well i think my skin enjoys it !
Sure sounds like your skin does love it. I am glad to hear it wrks so well for you.
Hi doctor Anne. I used this product since January and one time I used this with Antipodes avocado pear night cream and I had terrible alergy. Which as far as I know, I never have any alergy. But when I use them separately I have no problem at all. I believe they have some ingredients that will make chemical reactions when combined
While I of course can't say for sure, I don't think that is likely. Skincare products are usually formulated in a way that they don't react easily so they are more stable.
I used this one time with no other products and had bad break out and swollen face
So it doesn't contain retinol?
Can we use separate retinol serum?
No, to does not contain retinol, and yes, you can use a separate retinol serum.
Hello doctor.It was nice review .Can we use this serum with glycolic acid.i mean can I apply any glycolic acid product before and after applying this serum?
Yes. Just let the Glycolic Acid absorb fully before.
@@DoctorAnne thanks a lot☺️
@@12sowmya You are welcome.
Whenever people ask me what I want for Christmas this is my only ask. I started using it when I was 21 and although it is expensive my skin LOVES it. Literally gives me the perfect base to apply flawless makeup! Glad I came across your video 💗
It makes a great gift for sure.
How old are u now
@@Xtrckt Me? 41.
But sadly it doesn’t help in slight pigmentation around my mouth area. ☹️
@@beaulahbhakre4504 No, it is not the product I would recommend for that.
Hello is it okay if we pair salicylic acid with this ?
Absolutely.
Is it also possible to layer it over l ascorbic acid?😊
Yes.
@@DoctorAnne Thank you 🌺
Can I use Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair with retinol? Which I use first?
Yes, you can, and I personally would use Estee Lauder first.
I pick up a 100ml bottle from airports when I travel. Been using on/off am and pm for 15 years - I always need to spritz my face first though otherwise feels tacky. I have added in retinol and peptide creams as well as I am approaching 37
Sounds like you have a solid plan.
@@DoctorAnne thank you.. I hope it pays off when im older atm i dont know if its doing anything! 😊
@@shereebongo That is the thing with skincare - you'd need a time machine to be sure.
Hello can this help to repair skin that has been bleached before
I am not sure what you mean by repair? And what kind of bleaching?
Hi Doc, Thankyou for posting the ANR review!
would like to ask, i have a combi type skin, and my skin condition is more to dry in the cheeks and forehead area, also there are acne scars ( PIE ).
Does the ANR can help with my skin problem?
i tried my mom’s sample for two days now, it does calm my skin, all the dry skin has improved a lot after using the ANR, still considering buying the bigger size but im concern does this serum can helps with my PIE
Thankyou Doc 🙏🏻
I have a video on PIE here: ruclips.net/video/Y_HzkaWuy-Y/видео.html If you want to target it exclusively, ANR might not be the best choice.
@@DoctorAnne thankyouu doc!
@@kellynlimas You are welcome.
what about the Red and Yellow dye petroleum colors in the ingredients?
I am not sure I understand the question - what about them?
Can teenagers (16-18) use it ?
They can, but I think it would be a waste of money.
I agree! I grew up my mother only using Estée Lauder. ... male here. It's quite pricey in the US but the cost is worth it
I guess that it reminds me of my mother is an added benefit, makes me smile whenever I reach for the bottle.
Does it help with skin brightening
It has ingredients that will have a subtle effect there, but it isn't specifically aimed at brightening stubborn hyperpigmentation.
I use this product one night, tritonin another night, my skin is glowing, don't use moisturizer even
Sounds great. I like it on my no-tretinoin nights as well.
Can we use estee lauder serum and after that olay retinol mositurizer?
Yes.
Hi! I’m thinking about buying the serum.. glad I came across your video. I have a question can I mix the serum with hyaluronic acid ?
Yes, you can, but I do not recommend mixing different products.
@@DoctorAnne okay, thank you for your reply 😊
@@iwaninajihah You are welcome.
Hi i just want to ask if i can use it while breastfeeding and also there other products
Yes, you can use this while breastfeeding.
Thank you
Hi dr anne, if i use tretinoin and this regularly, is it better to use on same night? If yes which goes first?
Or better that i alternate nights and use this with my AHA and BHA and tretinoin alone with only moisturizer?
Thanks in advance 😊
Both is fine, depending on your preference. For maximum results Tretinoin should go first, but there is no harm in using this serum first either. Basically: Do what works for you.
Doctor Anne thanks so much❤️
I always wondered about this serum & had some simples. But I'm not sure if I felt anything special! Maybe I have to use longterm!! Some people love it & some think is overhyped. I think it just depends how each individual's skin reacts to it.
Thank you Dr. Anne😉
Every skin is different. I really adore it, but that is probably because it is just what my skin reacts best to. It is definitely not a must have for everyone.
Is it good for sensitive and acne prone skin?
My skin is acne prone and it works great for me. For sensitive skin it depends on your individual skin, but it doesn´t contain any strong irritants.
Thanks a lot...
@@neha-td2qm You are welcome.
Thank you for reviewing this product. I have just purchased my first 100ml bottle. I’m hoping to enjoy the product as much as you do and look forward to a more youthful look 😃👍🏽💯
Let me know how you get along with it.
I just bought it ! Let’s see if this works
I have been using this product for about 2 months now. I really like it. I’d definitely recommend it to others :-)
@@janharrison763 I am glad to hear it works for you.
Does it hide or permanently remove large open pores doctor . I have oily skin
Nothing can permanently remove pores. I have a video pn pores and pore size here: ruclips.net/video/ZOP9KqVp_xY/видео.html
Hi Dr. Please let me know how and when to use this serum for better results. Do we need to apply cream after serum at night. Regards ...
Use it at night after cleansing and yes, most skin types will need a cream on top, only very oily ones may not.
Helo my love,thankyou for lovely video I have recently got this serum I am using tretinion at night can I use this with my tretinion . Do you think using both of these together giving a gud result for anti aging?pls do let me know 🙏 xx
Yes, you can. If you watch some of my skincare routines, you will see I often combine these two.
@@DoctorAnne Thank-you so much❤❤
I had seen ads for this and got a free sample with some beauty purchases. I had no idea it was so good, it minimizes the “eleven” lines in between my brows so well and the skin looks so much better. I use it every night before going to bed. I apply it first and when it’s completely absorbed it I use a retinol cream. Worth every penny 👍👍👍👍👍
I feel the same way.
From where we can take free sample?
I started using this again after years and I tried so many brands. It gives you a healthy color. I always got it as sample. Had so many of them but I think it is better than more expensive brands. It also gives you a healthy sun kissed look.
That is interesting, I didn't notice any changes in my skin color.
@@DoctorAnne I noticed darker skin before but not anymore. Now it is more even toned.
@@aichasbeauty8808 Sounds great.
I have natural tan skin tone and after using Estee Lauder's serum for at least 2 years my skintone is more even too:))
Hi Doc, do you recommend this on top of prescription retinol for someone at her late 50s? I just need something that gives lots of hydration and firmness. Thanks as always
Do you already use a hydrating serum? That would be my first suggestion, followed by The Ordinary Copper Peptides + Buffet (in the mornings). If you already have those (or similar ones by another brand), then this is worth trying as well.
Is this safe for pregnancy and breastfeeding? Thank you.
Yes. I have a video dedicated to pregnancy safe skincare here if you are curious: ruclips.net/video/hkO1QIj1DpA/видео.html
Hey doc can you review the Este lauder eye cream also ?
I tired a sample once and wasn't impressed enough to buy a full size. But from simply using a sample I can't say enough to warrant a full review, sorry.
Is this okay for men's use?
Of course, skincare is not gendered.
Thanks. I will order this one today 😊
@@Masterme733 Let me know how you get on with it.
@@DoctorAnnei ordered it in Douglas and i will get it this week
Hi ,I have a que I’m using this from last 15 days .I have dry skin but still have no good results .is it good for dry skin ?
It depends what else you are using. On it's own it probably won't be enough to quench dryness, you'll need an occlusive moisturizer (and a gentle cleanser) as well. And 15 days isn't that long to see results, 4-6 weeks is a better time frame.
I have sensitive skin, and few acnes, in adult age, can i use this serum? Will it help me to cure acne?
Yes, you can use the serum, and no, it will not help cure acne. You need other things to fight acne, and it is best to see a doctor about them.
@@DoctorAnne is this serum increase my acne after use?
@@adritakhanom7567 No, I don't think so. It just won't address the acne.
How to combine this serum with the other serums, such as Vitamin C, Hyaluronic acid...?
You can pair it with each of them, depending on your preferences.
@@DoctorAnne which can I apply first: hyaluronic acid or this? Also, can I pair it with retinol? Which to use first?
@@ailemak59 I wouldn't necessarily use both: This and Hyaluronic Acid, but if you want to, it doesn't really matter. And I would do this and then retinol or retinol on its own.
hello doctor Anne, I am 22 years old, I use the clinique brand's id moisturizer, but I want to use serum at night. I have light lines on my face and it looks tired. What do you suggest? 🌟💖
That depends on what you are looking for. Maybe something lightly exfoliating if you feel your skin looks dull, or something more hydrating if you have fine lines.
@@DoctorAnne Thanks for your suggestion, I have dry skin. If you recommend moisturizer or serum, what product would that be? (by the way my mom is also very satisfied with the estee lauder serum using it for years💚)
@@sumeyyeersoy7221 It depends on your budget and which brand is readily available where you live - all the products I have tried are in my Quick skincare reviews playlist, but there are so many that for everyone I like there are 100 I haven´t even heard of.
Hi ! CAN I use it with timeless vitamin C and Ferulic acid serum,
Yes.
Hi doctor, lovely video .
Can I use it before applying my retinol every night ? Will it still work?
Yes, although for maximum effect retinol should be used on clean skin. If you combine the two, let it sink in completely before you apply the retinol.
@@DoctorAnne thanks so much
I love this product so much. I do the same as you, but quite expensive for me. It is wonderful. 🇦🇬
It is definitely a "treat to yourself" product.
Hey Doc ! M 22 years old can I start using it too ? New subscriber ❤️
You could, but I don´t think you need to yet.
I am having a worst dark circle around my eyes . Can i use this serum ,dr ?
Yes, but it probably won’t help with dark circles.
Thank you for the video! Can I use this with skinceuticals H.A intensifier ? As my skin really loves that , and if yes , do I apply it after or before ?
I have not tried the SkinCeuticals product myself, but I don´t think you need both in the same routine. But if you want to use both, before or after would probably both work fine.
i adore night repair i have been using it for over twenty five years , and would i sacrifice it for a perfume absolutely not , would i sacrifice for a an evening out ? absolutely not , people who know me buy this for me as a gift as they know i am such a follower of this beautiful product its worked well for me over the years , i have been very unwell but this beautiful serum has helped my skin without question , what have i received this christmas yes well i think you will know ! my regards liz x
I am sorry to hear you have been unwell lately, but glad you got your favorite treat again for hristmas. All the best to you.
Hello, I’m 25 this year and I’ve already got noticeable laughter lines. Especially when I have my foundation on, it sinks into them. Would this help reduce them do you think?
A little, yes. But if you are worried about fine lines, maybe a retinoid would be more effective.
What is the RETINOid?
Hi Doctor, at what age should we start using this ? And i am a 26 year old is using argan oil on face after cleansing okay at my age ??
I think age 30+ is an age where this will provide the most benefit, depending on your skin. And I am not a huge fan of pure oils for the face, but if it works for you, there is no harm in it.
@@DoctorAnne Thank u so much Doctor ! :)
@@priyankakundalia6754 You are welcome.
Can I mix vitamin c serum with this serum ? Is Night cream necessary after this?
Yes, you can mix it with Vitamin C serum as in apply both to the skin. I do never recommend mixing serums in the palms of your hand before application. And if you need a night cream depends on your skin, but I think all but extremely oily skins will benefit from a moisturizer afterwards.
@@DoctorAnne usually I apply Estée Lauder serum on my face directly and I mix vitamin c serum with Clinique moisture surge and then apply on my face in my night routine ! Is this a wrong way ?
@@sivaraman1100 There is no wrong way if it works for you. I am personally more a fan of applying one after the other, but if what you are doing works for your skin, no need to change it.
Dr Anne, how is this product different from ANR eye, I mean can I use this one in the eye area instead of buying the one specified for eye? If not, can you recommend an eye serum? Another question that’s not related to the video but I’d appreciate it if you’ll answer, do I need to use a sunscreen if I’m using SPF moisturizer?
You can use that one around the eye area, but as I never tried the eye version I can´t tell you exactly how they differ from each other. You do however not need a separate eye product if you don´t want to - the only time I think it is important to consider that is if you want to use a retinoid.
And for moisturizer with SPF - I recommend using a dedicated SPF and I have a video coming up explaining why.
Does this cause purging ?
Absolutely not. Here is a video on purging that explains why this one couldn't: ruclips.net/video/mAAFUaqpsp8/видео.html
My mother was on Estee Lauder's skincare and had great skin.
She was 74 when she died and did not have wrinkles.
It worked for her. My grandmother also used this product and died at age 84, she also did not have any wrinkles.
I am curious if you have reviewed Lancome's serum (Genifique) which would be a competing product.
If so, how do you feel that Lancome's Genifique Serum competes and compares with Estee Lauder's Night Repair Serum? I'd love to see you review these two for a couple of weeks or months - and see which one you recommend based on trying them both on either side of your face.
I haven‘t yet, but you are not the first to ask for this comparison, so I will definitely do it at one point. I had no idea Lancome had so many fans.
Hi! I’m a little bit late in watching the video. But I’m wondering if you would recommend this to a 22 year old considering the ingredients and since it’s promoted as anti aging? Thank you in advance!
It is a lovely soothing and hydrating serum, but a very pricey one, so i can‘t give it a recommendation for everyone. It depends on what you are looking for: If it is anti aging (as in prevention at your age) I don‘t think it is necessary. If you are my age and use all the heavy hitters for antiaging and want a little something-something (and have the budget!) then yes, I recommend it. But (no offense) at the age of 22 you probably have other investment priorities than a serum.
can i use this with my prescription tretinoin?
Yes.
@@DoctorAnne thank you so much doc 🙏🙏🙏
@@BlueSky-no1jv All the best.
Is this good for sensitive skin?? For redness relief? Thanks x
It is not specifically designed for that, but might help you individual skin.
hi i just bought this serum, i was told that it work to recover the skin so it should be good for my acne scars. God i hope that it will work it sure was expensive 😰😳
As you can tell from the video, I love it, but it would not be my first pick for acne scars.
@@DoctorAnne if i may ask what is your favorite thing for acne scars
@@naz-kg3yq I have a video series on that topic and just uploaded my hyperpigmentation fighting skincare routine where share my favorites in December.
I late ro the game but I just purchased the Estee Lauder ANR and my 52 ur old skin seems ro love it. It's exactly what you said: it's not something you need but it does seem to calm my skin down when nothing else does. There is no huge difference I see in my skin it's very subtle but it is worth it imo.
I agree, very subtle, but your skin just is overall better.
@@DoctorAnne yes, exactly! Sorry about all the typos in my previous post - I just re-read and thought wow is it ever horrible 🤷♀️🤦♀️
@@cristinaxo Don't worry, it happens to all of us.
Hi Anne, what do you think about Lancome Genefique advanced youth activating concentrate ?? About ingrediens ??
I can’t judge the product as I never tried it myself. It has some postbiotics and amino acids, which is nice, but on the other hand alcohol and fragrant essential oils which might be problematic for some. Have you tried it?
Hi dr Anne , do you still consider it good or are there any other current recommendations you can advise ?
I still use it in my routine on a regular, so yes. Other recommendations would depend on what you want it to do and what is available to you.
I list my current serum favorites here: shopmy.us/collections/24704
Hi Doctor Anne, great channel! I love your reviews. Could you please make a video for your own routine? I am trying to incorporate vit C, retinol, niacinamide and peptide in moisturiser into my routine while trying to keep it simple. It is hard and would love to hear your routine. I am trying to understand if and where EL serum would fit.
I mix this with The Ordinary L-ascorbic acid every night. Just wanted to confirm if mixing is ok?
I don´t recommend mixing products in the palm of your hand in general, but you can use both in the same routine.
@@DoctorAnne okie, thank you. Is there a reason you do not recommend mixing products in the palm?
@@maddyg282 Yes. I have a video on that topic, but in short: Any change to the formulation by adding something else has a chance to set off the carefully created balance of the product.
Hi Doctor, I am using it also. But I thought that it can reduce the lines, so what is the RETINOL that you advised people here to use? Is it a medecine or cream?
Retinol is an ingredient that is related to Tretinoin. I have a playlist explaining the differences and talking about ways to incorporate it if you want to learn more.
Pregnancy women can use this product?
Yes, it is pregnancy safe.
Hello doctor.. I'm 20 years old.. can i start using this?
You can, but I don´t think you need to just yet.
Hey Doctor , will it work for dry skin ?
Yes, if combined with the right products.
Hi Doc, I m 33 and I used this product after hearing so much about this but I got very bad acne on my face. Any suggestions ??
If the acne started with using the products, stop it and see if it goes away. If you already had acne: This one will not help treat it, that is not what it is designed for.
@@DoctorAnne thanks Doc, I used it only once and had bad breakouts. I don’t have acne as I bought 50ML bottle.. I wanted to give other try but scared to do so. I applied this after washing my face… Is there any other process to apply this product ?
@@urru_14 No, it goes on after cleansing and before moisturizer.
I just received this in a promotion. Should I apply it after cleansing at night and nothing else? Or can I use my other serums too? I have vitamin C and a night moisturizer. I’m 45 and trying to keep my skin soft and firm. Great video!
After cleansing, yes, but I would follow up with a moisturizer. The Vitamin C could be used with it as well, but if that is too many layers you can shift the Vitamin C to the mornings.
@@DoctorAnne And if I would like to use also retinol either in serum or in a cream, what would be the order, please?
@@bozulbobkova4049 In that instance I would use the Vitamin C in the mornings, then at night cleanse, use the retinol serum and then use a moisturizer or use this serum and then a cream with retinol. Both works.
@@DoctorAnne Many thanks. And for the night, if I have retinol serum and would like to use EL serum also, which one you would apply first?
@@bozulbobkova4049 Retinol first and then wait a while, but I personally usually don't have the patience to do several different layers.
Hello Ma'am! Can I use this serum after using my 5% vitamin c serum?
Yes, just let the Vitamin C one sink in completely and you should be fine.
Thank you so much... Your new subscriber
You are welcome.
Which mostriuser can we use with this serum.
As it's mostriuser is costly so please suggest other good one.
You can use any moisturizer you want with it.
@@DoctorAnne thank you so much for replying 😊
@@anushreeshukla2052 You are welcome.
Hi doctor is this product suitable for all type of skin ?
Yes.
We have a bottle of it that came with a gift pack. We don't know how to use it. My wife wants to know how to use it.
After cleansing your face and before moisturizer. Once a day, but twice a day works as well. It pairs well with other ingredients and can be used morning or night.
Always patch test any new products before application.
Hi Dr.Anne. I will be making 28 this year. I already feel like my skin is aging as I have issues with acne and stress that affects my skin. And under my eyes look tired and has wrinkles due to eye allergies. I’m wondering if it’s okay for me to start using these products because I already see signs of aging. (I am African American)
While there is no harm in using it (other than the price point), I would make sure that I have the basics in place before, like regular sunscreen (yes, even for melanated skin), hydration, a good cleansing routine and maybe, if you feel like you are aging prematurely, a retinoid. If you already have that, then maybe this one is a good addition.
I bought the Doublewear Foundation but they gave me this as a freebie just a small vial. I'm excited to try it. They claimed it is very effective especially I'm at a certain age I'm 45 and I'm very excited to include this in my skincare routine!
Let me know how it works for you.
What I need to know is whether this product will even out and fade away the slightly darkened area around my mouth? Please help!
It is not the product best suited to this task.
@@DoctorAnne that’s so sad actually I don’t know why it says evens out skin tone in one of its features! Misguiding.
@@beaulahbhakre4504 Well, it does even out the skin tone, but what you describe is melasma, a form of hyperpigmentation and there are other products better suited to that task. To be honest, most topical skincare will struggle with that.
Since i use this my nose black heads are gone i love it
That is amazing to hear.
I got a little sample size .23 oz to try but I have been too scared to cause of my Rosacea. I spilled a tiny little drop and put it on my hand and nothing happened. So far so good but that was my hand. Looks better then it did. You can feel the softness of the moisturizing effect. I live in the desert and my face is so dry. I tried coconut oil and it worked good too. My Mom said it made me face glow. But taking it my mouth made my over all skin look so much healthier and not parched. It's weird.
I am not a fan of Coconut oil on my face, but my skin isn´t dry.
I was advised at Estée Lauder to apply the serum day and night and then apply an anti-wrinkle cream on top. Does this make sense or is it a waste of product?
That depends on what else you use. I don't think you need it twice a day to see benefits, but it will certainly do no harm.
@@DoctorAnne I am using Estee Lauder résilience multi-effect. They told me to apply this cream right after applying the serum, which I find quite awkward
@@alfonsobarragues7874 Why do you find it awkward? I never tried this cream, but using the serum and then a moisturizer directly after it helps keep hydration in the skin.
@@DoctorAnne I find it is awkward because it is heavy on the skin to apply the two at a time morning and evening. But if you think it is moré hydrating I will follow your advice
@@alfonsobarragues7874 That entirely depends on your skin and skin type. If it feels heavy, it is probably not the right cream for you.
Is it safe for melasma please?
Yes, but it won't help much either.
@@DoctorAnne thank you so much
@@ritasharqawi7367 You are welcome.
Hey. I’ve started using this serum. My skin started feeling fresh and soft. But there are increased number of acne. I am not sure if it is purging or breakout? How can i be sure
The serum does not contain ingredients that encourage purging. Best way is to stop and see if the breakouts disappear - a lot of things can cause breakouts, so it might be just a coincidence, but of course it might be that your skin doesn´t agree with the serum.
I also experienced more acne since using this product. Was wondering if i was the only one.
@@fadajoana Every skin reacts different.
Can I use this as a day serum? Also will it help to even out my skin tone? I have slight dark area below my mouth
Yes, you can use it during the day and no, I don´t think it will help much with this issue.
I'm just 18 will it suit my skin?
While it will not harm your skin, I don't really think it is something you need.
Does it have retinol in it?
No, it doesn't.
@@DoctorAnne so can I pair it with a retinol based moisturizer?
@@aanchal4090 Yes.
This product is my NR.1 ! I have it since years and it helps me with my acne spots A LOT !!!!!!!!
It is lovely.
Hi! Is it safe for sensitive skin? AD.
That depends on what you are sensitive against. In general though it has no irritating actives.
I'm only 21 years can i use this serum please tell me
Yes, you can, but I don't think you need to. Here are my recommendations for people your age: ruclips.net/video/9LRB-DJLGJI/видео.html
The product isn't bad, but is totally not worth the cost. At least in my opinion. Here are the OG Korean skin care products with better ingredients I'd rather buy.
1. manyo bifida complex ampoule
2. manyo galactomy niacin essence
3. Isntree TW-Real Bifida Ampoule
4. Benton Fermentation Essence
Thank you for sharing your list. Why do you think they have better ingredients?
@@DoctorAnne Both the Estee lauder and Isntree have bifida as the star ingredient. However, the addition of three different Lactobacillus ferment extracts, Niacinamide and three different peptides including copper peptide-1 is what makes the Isntree one more preferable to me. The Isntree one gave me a relatively poreless appearance with just one use.

@@vacationeyes6430 Thank you for clarifying what you mean. I think "preferably for me" is the key point here, someone else might look for other things in a product than you do.
@@DoctorAnne I get your point about personal preference and I agree. At the same time, I don't think expensive necessarily means better.
@@vacationeyes6430 Absolutely not, I am with you there.
