Hello from Greece!!! Congrats,amazing work,I just joined!!! May I ask,can we apply eye cream after the routine?Either in the morning or at night. Thank you!!!!
Technically, yes, you could use it if you feel the need for extra hydration. However, I would avoid retinol eye creams as they potentially may irritate the skin. But if it's solely for extra hydration and some antioxidant benefits, then it could definitely be a good option. And welcome 🙃
Hi Melissa , please can you guide of how to use The ordinary argeline + The ordinary Retinol in squalene + one thing niacinamide in the PM routine?? Thanks ❤
Hey! :) Thank you!🥰 Keep them in separate routines or do not use them on top of each other (depending on where you want to apply TO Argireline Solution) :)
Well, you can, but as explained in the video, they serve a similar purpose and some ingredients are the same. So, you would just use either one of them or alternate.

Hi Melissa! Is my AM skin care routine good? - Cerave cleanser - bioma face mist - The ordinary hyaluronic acid - The ordinary niacinamide - The ordinary Argireline Solution - The ordinary Matrixyl - Neutrogena sunscreen
I think it could be too much, potentially causing layering issues or sensitivities. Please ensure to use the right cleanser for your skin type. For dry skin, use the Cerave Hydrating Cleanser. For oily skin, choose the Cerave Foaming Cleanser. After using the Cerave cleanser, consider the following routine: Bioma Face Mist or The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid The Ordinary Niacinamide or The Ordinary Argireline Solution and The Ordinary Matrixyl Finish with Neutrogena Sunscreen. Overall, I would recommend using a maximum of two serums per routine to ensure proper layering and absorption. From my experience, this approach works best.

Hi Melissa! Love your videos! ❤I was wondering if you could clarify something for me. I'm using these products(argireline, matrixyl and hyaluronic acid). Is it ok to finish with a cream that contains thiamidol? Thank you 😊
Hmm, because it's slightly acidic 🤔, I'm not sure about that, but it may become an issue. However, if you leave a few minutes in between, then there shouldn't be an issue.
Hm... I haven't compared them side by side. However, Matrixyl and Argireline have a better texture than Buffet (at least for me), unless you would get Buffet + Copper Peptides (now Multi-Peptide + Copper Peptides).
I've heard it's safe to use peptides in the same session of your skincare routine with retinol, so I'd like to use a retinol with **both** the Argireline solution and the matrixyl 3000 solution at night. For now I'm using the CeraVe resurfacing retinol serum which is known for its gentleness but id like to step up into Vichy's LiftActiv Pure Retinol Serum that has 0.2% of pure retinol soon.

I'm a bit confused in here, sorry for bothering you Melissa, and thank you a lot 💕
Hey! Yes, this can work. Choose the second option for layering because your peptide serums are much lighter and water-based, whereas Retinol is typically formulated in an oilier base.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial thank you very much for explaining! 🥰 I wanted to ask too, I eventually want to step up into using tretinoin, can you layer it as well with both these serums or that would be pushing it in regards of irritation? Thank you a lot again!!

You could use them together; in that case, use the Caffeine Solution after Argireline; however, I would use the Caffeine Solution in the AM and Argireline Solution in the PM - or the other way around :)
Hey! :) The Ordinary Multi-Peptide Serum already contains a blend of all those peptides, so the Argireline and Matrixyl serums aren't really needed. However, if you have already bought them, you can use them in the PM.
Yes, however, my suggestion would be to use these in the morning and your Retin-A on its own at night. Give it a try and see what works best for you! 😊
Hey melissa can we use argireline in this order in morning to Target freckles and aging - cleansing+ toner+ argireline+ niacinamide+ Alpha arbutin+ceramide+spf. Is it too much? Will it peel?
I'm unsure if the products will pill. Using small amounts of each serum might prevent this issue, but I think using all of them might be excessive. I would suggest using either Niacinamide, Alpha Arbutin, or just one of the three, and then alternating them. This approach ensures that everything is absorbed nicely into the skin without overwhelming it.
Can I use pyunkang yul calming moisture toner, cosrx eye cream, snail muccin essence, argireline solution and retinol together in same routine(night time)? If yes can you please suggest the order?
Well, yes, but that's a lot of products, and the ingredients likely do not penetrate well. However, the order would be: Cleanser Toner Argireline Snail Mucin Retinol Eye Cream
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial thank you so much ❤️ Cleanser, essence, argireline,retinol and eyecream. Can i do this way? And should I don’t use moisturizer at the end ?
Do you recommend these serums if I won't be able to afford it long term (after 2-3 bottles)? I regularly use Tretinoin and Niacinamide, but I am really interested in checking these out if they show results as noticeable as tretinoin and niacinamide.
Well, honestly, I haven't used them for long enough periods to determine if they are truly effective for what they claim. So, from that perspective, you'll need to test them yourself. If you do decide to test them, don't forget to take pictures, and please let me know about the results! 😃
Hi Melisa, this unrelated to this particular video but I wanted to ask if the Paul choice 2% BHA liquid exfoliate and The ordinary alpha Arbutin 2% can be used together or be used on separate days in different regimens?
I read that you can apply the two peptides at the same time by mixing one drop of matrixyl with 2 drops of argireline and applying to the specific areas of the face you want to reduce wrinkles. Is this okay? I have been using the two serums this way for several months but will switch to applying argireline, waiting 30 sec, and then applying matrixyl if the two conflict in any way. Thank you for your helpful advice. The ordinary has so many products it is hard to know where to start to build a regime.
Yes, that's acceptable. These serums do not conflict with each other; in fact, you can mix them and then apply them to your skin, or layer them. Generally, the idea behind layering is that it enables better absorption of the products. Using the lightweight formulation first allows for deeper penetration, while the heavier one stays a bit more on the surface. Practically speaking, if your skin can utilize the product, the difference may not be significant, but it certainly could be.
Namaste 🙏 You just got a subscriber from India 🇮🇳 ,Im a male 35 using naicinimide followed with tretnoin 0.1% & want to incorporate matrixyl 3000 pepetide but DONT KNOW HOW TO LAYER IT WITH TRETNOIN, SO IF YOU COULD HELP ME WITH THAT SHUKRIYA 🙂
Hello GADOOLI RR , Use it when not using the tretinoin. And I assume that you use tretinoin in the evening, so use Matrixyl in the morning. And welcome 🙂
Hlo dear can I use ordinary arglireline with timeless coenzyme q10 together. One more question can I use this both serum with alpha arbutin ordinary 🙏🏼
Hello dear, Can I use these two serums with tretinoin at night? I dont apply tretinoin on my whole face for anti aging.I just put a little on my acne & spots for treatment purpose only.
I suggest using them when not using tretinoin, so during the day. So that the tretinoin can do its job. Also, they are best to use during the day as their benefits may only be temporary, so you want to have that during the day 🙂
Hmm, technically, yes. However, it often irritates people's skin, causing a stinging sensation. I'm not sure why it does that; it could be a reaction or simply too much for the skin to tolerate.
First, thax for your reply,❤ so what should i use from both of them which is best one Argirline or Retinol, as i m 40 and having many laugh lines around lips also undèr eye area.
Well the long-term benefits are questionable, but the short-term plumping effect is remarkable, therefore it may be best to use it during the day to have a nice glow/hydrated look. I mean, unless you go out in the evening ;) But I do not see any benefit in doing this. But you can, yes.
Retinol would be the last step. However, when combining these peptides with retinol, it often leads to sensitivities. Therefore, I suggest not using them together. But it's not wrong to do so.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial and something else, are the following routines ok? 1) acids moisturising toner or essence Iunik b glucan serum moisturising cream with rosehip oil. 2) Moisturising toner or essence Niod cooper amino isolate serum Iunik b glucan serum Moisturising cream with rosehip oil. Thanks in advance 🙏
Hi melissa!!! So I was wondering, can i use cerave's resurfacing retional in the morning and cerave's acne foaming cream cleanser at night? Or should I do it the other way around?? I have a lot of acne scars
@@sparkleiiia Start slowly to see what frequency works best for your skin. If sensitivity should occur, reduce the frequency and give your skin a break of a few days.
Thanks for this info as I want to try Arireline and I already have Matrixyl. I also have Marine and a mostly black tea with panthenol toner - can I fit these in somewhere?
Does this combination actually work? My mom has been bothering me to get good quality products that help with wrinkles and plumping up the skin for her but there are so many products out there and I have zero clue about them. She was already using retinol but then wasn't satisfied with the slow results or lack thereof and stopped due to impatience
No, it does not penetrate deep enough for long-lasting results. Peptides are generally too large to penetrate the skin. However, the combination makes the skin look very plump as they sit on the skin's surface. This will give you a nice plumping effect during the day/night whenever you need it so that it will make a significant difference temporarily! Retinol is the best you can use. Or even better, a retinoid such as Adapalene or Tretinoin 0,05%.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial just one from Amazon. Can I alternate using the Vitamin C with the peptides? Or use one In The morning and one in the evening?
@@laurenbernhard8176 The Ordinary Peptides should not be used with exfoliating acids and Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid) due to the low pH, which can break down the peptides and cause loss of benefits. Therefore, it's recommended to use your peptides in the morning and Vitamin C in the evening, or vice versa.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial thank you for replying dear... My skin type normal to dry ...fine lines and pigmentation I hv .. Currently I hv done 2 session of mild chemical peels...but no result I hv fine lines under eyes ... upper side of nose ...and forehead....and pigmentation around both chick's and upper mouth
@@gargidrawing9068 Well, as explained in the video, these peptide serums mainly offer temporary benefits and their long-term results are still somewhat questionable. Mostly, they all provide similar benefits, so from that perspective, you could use either one of them. You could even try both and alternate them in your morning and evening skincare routines. However, I personally would recommend a retinol or retinoid formulation as that may yield the best results over time! Just keep in mind that if you do these chemical peels, you may need to adjust the retinol you are using. It's better to ask the doctor or the person performing the peel for their suggestion.
It depends on the peptides and vitamin c formulation you used. So if you use a Vitamin C derivative, it is no issue, (higher pH 5-6) but if you use an Ascorbic Acid serum, the low pH (2-3) will break them down; therefore, they do not work anymore.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial I use straight L Ascorbic Acid powder mixed with Ferulic+ Res by TO plus Cosrx snail Mucin 🤷. I swear I'm still seeing benefits from both.. I do wait in-between applications I must add. Peptides I use are the usual bah copper
@@jayedwardsuk5984 yes, you likely just see the hydrating benefits these products give you. So they stay on the surface, making it look plump. But anyway, what counts is that you are happy and that it works somehow for you. 🙂
Yes, you could use it after the Argireline solution or Matrixyl, but generally, they are all water-based, so technically the order doesn't really matter. You can layer them based on what feels best on your skin.
I wouldn't use any skincare products while pregnant or breastfeeding. Instead, focus on a healthy diet for you and your baby, such as reducing intake of added sugar, processed food, and fast food.

Hi Dear, 😊 I need one more suggestion. I want to add "CeraVe Skin Renewing Retinol Serum" into my skincare routine. So if I use "ordinary Argireline & Matrixyl" at Day time and "CeraVe Skin Renewing Retinol Serum" at night time; is it safe for my skin? Please let me know 😊😊😊 Thank you
dry or damp is fine, just avoid wet skin. Wet skin: This is skin that has a noticeable layer of water on it. You can see water drops on the skin's surface, and you can feel the water when you touch the skin. Damp skin: This refers to skin that has been patted dry on the surface, but still retains moisture internally. There are no visible water drops on the skin surface. It's akin to a sponge or a piece of clothing that no longer drips water, but remains moist to the touch. Dry skin: Dry skin refers to skin that has been patted dry on the surface, followed by waiting for 5-10 minutes to allow the rest of the moisture to evaporate. This practice involves letting the skin air dry completely before applying any products or continuing with other skincare routines. Doing so can be beneficial, especially when using potent treatments, as it allows them to absorb more slowly into the skin, thereby reducing irritation.
@@econa9837 it is a very high % of the active ingredient; it may get into the eyes while you sweat or because of the movement irritating the eye. And also, these products were not tested on the eyelids, so who knows what happens after a while.
Well, you could, but they all serve the same purpose. Buffet also has some of the same ingredients/peptides as the others, so there's no point in doing this. 😉
@@aqsahussain1114 so yes, that should not be an issue. But overall, using one at a time may be the better option as both are cell-communicating. I have had a better experience with Matrixyl, mainly because Buffet always breaks me out, but I have never used it for a more extended period, so I can't tell much about it.
I guess since the acids are last ingredients in the list, it should be fine… so if I do the two serums first then moisturizer and then follow up with the sunscreen will it be okay?
I would like to develop a solid skin care routine that will have long term benefits.I wish to maintain skin elasticity and prevent any wrinkles from developing and maintain a glowing skin.

Sorry for all the questions. I am so confused
@@mariagill5183 The "glass skin" look you see online is often fictional unless you're willing to slather on tons of products. Not only can this feel uncomfortable, but it might also lead to other skin issues, especially when done continuously and not just for a camera shot with filters and/or makeup. Skin isn't naturally glowing. While you can use an exfoliant plus a hydrating product to achieve some glow, the effect has its limits. Age and genetics play significant roles in skin texture and appearance. Consider adding either an AHA (Glycolic or Lactic Acid) plus a hydrating product or a Retinol to your routine. If you opt for Retinol, start with a gentle one, like the Retinol Cream from Good Molecules.
Yes, still a lot of people, according to my comment section on RUclips, experience issues when used too often. So, my advice would be to use them both once per day. :)
@@sanaeelyazri7622 No, keep them separate. The Ordinary recommends not using Ascorbic Acid (pure Vitamin C) with their Peptide Serums. So, use your Vitamin C in the AM and Peptides in the PM (or the other way around).
What works best for me to keep it under control is: How to use Panoxyl Benzoyl Peroxide Cleanser and Differin Gel for Acne-Prone Skin: ruclips.net/video/nu1Wo9O_6e0/видео.html
I think not really much, as they are likely not penetrating deep enough. You will have a layer on top of the skin which looks very shiny and probably starts to pill off during the day. But exposing the skin to very high amounts can cause sensitivity over time "if absorbed"!

@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial oooh thanks for your fast reply, I will try that♥️💋
You look amazing and beautiful
Thank you!!😊
Hi Melissa, im from Malaysia. Can I use both in the pm only bcs in am im using TO multipeptide + HA Serum and Alpha Arbutin? thank you
Hey! :)
The Ordinary Multi-Peptide Serum already contains a blend of all those peptides, so the Argireline and Matrixyl serums aren't really needed. However, if you have already bought them, you can use them in the PM.
Really helpful. So we don't need to use toner or a retinol product as part of the steps?
Correct! :)
Thank you very much!❤
🙂
Melissa, Hi there beautiful lady. Can you use both of these products with Retin A at night time?
Yes, however, my suggestion would be to use these in the morning and your Retin-A on its own at night. Give it a try and see what works best for you! 😊
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial I will do just that. Thank you so much for responding.
Hey melissa can we use argireline in this order in morning to Target freckles and aging
- cleansing+ toner+ argireline+ niacinamide+ Alpha arbutin+ceramide+spf.
Is it too much? Will it peel?
I'm unsure if the products will pill. Using small amounts of each serum might prevent this issue, but I think using all of them might be excessive. I would suggest using either Niacinamide, Alpha Arbutin, or just one of the three, and then alternating them. This approach ensures that everything is absorbed nicely into the skin without overwhelming it.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial thank you ❤️
Hi Melissa, can I add vitamin c on top of argireline & matrixyl in the morning before my sunscreen? Thank you for all the tips, it’s really helpful 😊

However, the order would be:
Cleanser
Toner
Argireline
Snail Mucin
Retinol
Eye Cream
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial oh okay, thank you for your reply. Can you suggest what should I remove from this routine to make it effective?
@@kanwaldeep1872 Either use the hydrating toner or essence. Using both, along with (maybe) a moisturizer is a lot :)
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial thank you so much ❤️ Cleanser, essence, argireline,retinol and eyecream. Can i do this way? And should I don’t use moisturizer at the end ?
@@kanwaldeep1872 what retinol formulation do you have? 🤔
Do you recommend these serums if I won't be able to afford it long term (after 2-3 bottles)?
I regularly use Tretinoin and Niacinamide, but I am really interested in checking these out if they show results as noticeable as tretinoin and niacinamide.
Well, honestly, I haven't used them for long enough periods to determine if they are truly effective for what they claim. So, from that perspective, you'll need to test them yourself. If you do decide to test them, don't forget to take pictures, and please let me know about the results! 😃
Hi Melisa, this unrelated to this particular video but I wanted to ask if the Paul choice 2% BHA liquid exfoliate and The ordinary alpha Arbutin 2% can be used together or be used on separate days in different regimens?
Yes, you can use them one after the other. Use the BHA first.
Can I use vitamin C after both argirline & Matrixyl?
What Vitamin C do you use/want to use?
If it contains Ascorbic Acid or Ethylated Ascorbic Acid, use them in separate routines.
Can i use the ordinary Argireline 10% with retinol
yes
I read that you can apply the two peptides at the same time by mixing one drop of matrixyl with 2 drops of argireline and applying to the specific areas of the face you want to reduce wrinkles. Is this okay? I have been using the two serums this way for several months but will switch to applying argireline, waiting 30 sec, and then applying matrixyl if the two conflict in any way. Thank you for your helpful advice. The ordinary has so many products it is hard to know where to start to build a regime.
Yes, that's acceptable. These serums do not conflict with each other; in fact, you can mix them and then apply them to your skin, or layer them. Generally, the idea behind layering is that it enables better absorption of the products. Using the lightweight formulation first allows for deeper penetration, while the heavier one stays a bit more on the surface. Practically speaking, if your skin can utilize the product, the difference may not be significant, but it certainly could be.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial I see. Thanks for the more detailed info.

Hello GADOOLI RR ,
Use it when not using the tretinoin. And I assume that you use tretinoin in the evening, so use Matrixyl in the morning.
And welcome 🙂
Hlo dear can I use ordinary arglireline with timeless coenzyme q10 together.
One more question can I use this both serum with alpha arbutin ordinary 🙏🏼
yes, you can.
Hello dear,
Can I use these two serums with tretinoin at night? I dont apply tretinoin on my whole face for anti aging.I just put a little on my acne & spots for treatment purpose only.
I suggest using them when not using tretinoin, so during the day. So that the tretinoin can do its job. Also, they are best to use during the day as their benefits may only be temporary, so you want to have that during the day 🙂
Hello Melissa, can I use this argireline serum while breastfeeding to my baby? Or even a pregnant woman use it please reply me.
As far as I know, there is no research, so that means nobody really knows. If it were me, I wouldn't use it.
Hey Melissa, h r u doing? Love to watch your videos. Please tell me can i allso apply Retinol after Argirline solution and Matrixyl HA?
Hmm, technically, yes. However, it often irritates people's skin, causing a stinging sensation. I'm not sure why it does that; it could be a reaction or simply too much for the skin to tolerate.
First, thax for your reply,❤ so what should i use from both of them which is best one Argirline or Retinol, as i m 40 and having many laugh lines around lips also undèr eye area.
@@Carzedit95e6r Well, you could use TO Argireline Solution + Matrixyl in the AM and Retinol in the PM.
Oh amazing suggestion, thanx a lot dear, love❤
Do I start with 1%, using first time?
Hi - is this okay to still use the caffeine solution for eyes? If so what step would you use this?
Yes, that is okay. Technically, it doesn't matter in water order you use them, but Argireline may layer best when used as the first serum.
Hi Melissa..what about retinol? Should it go before or after the matrixyl in hyaluronic acid? I am using the inkeylist retinol ..
in this case after.
What about differin?? Before or after????
Hi
It is ok to use both argireline and matrixyl twice a day? so once in the morning routine and one before bed? thanks
Well the long-term benefits are questionable, but the short-term plumping effect is remarkable, therefore it may be best to use it during the day to have a nice glow/hydrated look. I mean, unless you go out in the evening ;) But I do not see any benefit in doing this. But you can, yes.
Hello. Can I add use my retinol with these duo? If so when would I use the retinol before or after?
Retinol would be the last step. However, when combining these peptides with retinol, it often leads to sensitivities. Therefore, I suggest not using them together. But it's not wrong to do so.

Great Video! does it make sense to include hyaluronic acid in the routine with Argireline & Matrixyl or would it be an overkill
Matrixyl already contains Hyaluronic Acid (HA) so it is not really needed ;)
Thanks for this info as I want to try Arireline and I already have Matrixyl. I also have Marine and a mostly black tea with panthenol toner - can I fit these in somewhere?
Use both after your toner, then follow with Argireline or Marine Hyaluronics (you can use them in any order), and then follow with Matrixyl :)
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial - Thanks again, Melissa!
Should I use these one after the other or can I use one in the morning and one at night?
Either way is fine! :)
Does this combination actually work? My mom has been bothering me to get good quality products that help with wrinkles and plumping up the skin for her but there are so many products out there and I have zero clue about them. She was already using retinol but then wasn't satisfied with the slow results or lack thereof and stopped due to impatience
No, it does not penetrate deep enough for long-lasting results. Peptides are generally too large to penetrate the skin. However, the combination makes the skin look very plump as they sit on the skin's surface. This will give you a nice plumping effect during the day/night whenever you need it so that it will make a significant difference temporarily!
Retinol is the best you can use. Or even better, a retinoid such as Adapalene or Tretinoin 0,05%.
Hi. When or what would do you suggest when using a vitamin C serum?
Which one do you have? As you shouldn't use those peptides with an Ascorbic Acid serum in the same routine.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial just one from Amazon.
Can I alternate using the Vitamin C with the peptides? Or use one In The morning and one in the evening?
@@laurenbernhard8176 The Ordinary Peptides should not be used with exfoliating acids and Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid) due to the low pH, which can break down the peptides and cause loss of benefits. Therefore, it's recommended to use your peptides in the morning and Vitamin C in the evening, or vice versa.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial thank you
@MelissaVanDijkOfficial does this rule apply to a vit C cream also or a product like garnier serum cream (contains 20% concentrated vit C)?

Currently I hv done 2 session of mild chemical peels...but no result
I hv fine lines under eyes ... upper side of nose ...and forehead....and pigmentation around both chick's and upper mouth
@@gargidrawing9068 Well, as explained in the video, these peptide serums mainly offer temporary benefits and their long-term results are still somewhat questionable. Mostly, they all provide similar benefits, so from that perspective, you could use either one of them. You could even try both and alternate them in your morning and evening skincare routines. However, I personally would recommend a retinol or retinoid formulation as that may yield the best results over time! Just keep in mind that if you do these chemical peels, you may need to adjust the retinol you are using. It's better to ask the doctor or the person performing the peel for their suggestion.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial thank you dear ❤️..can I order asterwood brand argiline matryxil serum...or ordinary brand is better? 🙏🏻
@@gargidrawing9068 I would go with The Ordinary.
I use Peptides after applying Vit C I still feel like the Vit c is working many say it doesn't degrade and they actually compliment each other?
It depends on the peptides and vitamin c formulation you used. So if you use a Vitamin C derivative, it is no issue, (higher pH 5-6) but if you use an Ascorbic Acid serum, the low pH (2-3) will break them down; therefore, they do not work anymore.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial I use straight L Ascorbic Acid powder mixed with Ferulic+ Res by TO plus Cosrx snail Mucin 🤷. I swear I'm still seeing benefits from both.. I do wait in-between applications I must add.
Peptides I use are the usual bah copper
@@jayedwardsuk5984 yes, you likely just see the hydrating benefits these products give you. So they stay on the surface, making it look plump. But anyway, what counts is that you are happy and that it works somehow for you. 🙂
Can I use these with Olay retinol 24 at night? for night time routine.
I think that is too much. I would use these in the morning and the retinol in the evening.
Hi Melissa, can i add The ordinry Buffet + copper on ths a 3rd layer?
that is a mixture of the different peptides so no, that makes no sense. Use it when not using the other serums.
Can I use those with Vit C serum, niacinamide and hyaluronic acid?
What vitamin c serum do you have?
Can i implement the Amino Acids + B5 into this routine?
Yes, you could use it after the Argireline solution or Matrixyl, but generally, they are all water-based, so technically the order doesn't really matter. You can layer them based on what feels best on your skin.
Thank you @@MelissaVanDijkOfficial

Hey Melissa! Should I apply it on damp or dry skin!? Or no difference?!
dry or damp is fine, just avoid wet skin.
Wet skin: This is skin that has a noticeable layer of water on it. You can see water drops on the skin's surface, and you can feel the water when you touch the skin.
Damp skin: This refers to skin that has been patted dry on the surface, but still retains moisture internally. There are no visible water drops on the skin surface. It's akin to a sponge or a piece of clothing that no longer drips water, but remains moist to the touch.
Dry skin: Dry skin refers to skin that has been patted dry on the surface, followed by waiting for 5-10 minutes to allow the rest of the moisture to evaporate. This practice involves letting the skin air dry completely before applying any products or continuing with other skincare routines. Doing so can be beneficial, especially when using potent treatments, as it allows them to absorb more slowly into the skin, thereby reducing irritation.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial thanks for quick reply Melissa!!

@@mariagill5183 The "glass skin" look you see online is often fictional unless you're willing to slather on tons of products. Not only can this feel uncomfortable, but it might also lead to other skin issues, especially when done continuously and not just for a camera shot with filters and/or makeup. Skin isn't naturally glowing. While you can use an exfoliant plus a hydrating product to achieve some glow, the effect has its limits. Age and genetics play significant roles in skin texture and appearance. Consider adding either an AHA (Glycolic or Lactic Acid) plus a hydrating product or a Retinol to your routine. If you opt for Retinol, start with a gentle one, like the Retinol Cream from Good Molecules.
