      @@MelissaVanDijkOfficial I like it as an antiperspirant, actually. I’m not a fan of (most) deodorants. They’re so sticky and messy and some of them don’t even smell that great. So I’d rather don’t smell at all.That’s what I’m going for and that’s what The Ordinary’s glycolic acid toner does for me. I’ve heard about it doing good stuff for feet as well. It makes a lot of sense if you know the whole idea and science behind the foot mask/foot sock mask thingy’s. It’s all about enzymes, urea and acids. Maybe even some sodium hydroxide aka lye, but I wouldn’t go that far - I still want some skin on my feet left 😸 But yeah, any of the alpha hydroxy acid, especially lactic acid and glycolic acid, it make sense. And then any fat occlusive cream will do. Even petroleum jelly - that might even be the best 🤔 And then a plastic bag over it and let it sit. I usually put knitted socks over the sock masks anyway and I think it might even make it a little more effective - you know, with the heat. But frankly, it’s just me speculating really 🤷🏼‍♀️
      But yeah, there’s a DIY foot mask.

    Hello Melissa, Happy New year. Thank you so much for this educational video. You are very patience, explaining everything very well. English is my second language and I understand everything you said. In the past, when I was younger, I use to go to the beach ALOT .
    Due to that, I have dark spots and freckles. Do you think this set can help me with that or there are other products that you can recommend me from The Ordinary Skin care. I have looked for many reviews and you are the only person who really takes the time to explain everything. Thank you very much, God Bless you. 🙏🏻 A big hug from Miami Beach, Fl.
    By the way, I don’t go to the beach so often now compared when I was younger Jejejejejeje and I use my Sunblock 🧴 and I go to the beach only to see the sunset or early to see the Sunrise. 😘🙋🏻‍♀️ Also, I would like to know if you have video about what products you Can and Cannot mix together.
    I already subscribe to your channel and give you a like.

    • @MelissaVanDijkOfficial
      @MelissaVanDijkOfficial  5 месяцев назад

      Hello Angela,
      I think for sun-damaged skin, especially when the damage has reached deeper layers, over-the-counter topical treatments might not yield the desired results.
      Regarding the freckles, acids like glycolic acid, or in my case lactic acid (since I don't tolerate glycolic acid well), have shown good results. In fact, my freckles disappeared entirely over the years, although I must admit that I almost entirely avoided the sun due to the pandemic.
      However, for the dark spots, you may need to consult a doctor for treatments like hydroquinone, which should ideally be used under a doctor's guidance. Mechanical treatments like laser or microneedling can also be effective, depending on your budget, but these are likely the best options.
      It's essential to use broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 50+ and PA++++) even when only going to the beach for sunset, to prevent freckles from persisting. Protective clothing helps too. I lived near the beach and mostly went out for sunrise or sunset, using sunscreen or staying under trees. Back then, I wasn't as concerned, but now I notice sun damage everywhere.
      In summary, the bright set from the ordinary should show some improvement, especially with diligent sunscreen application habits. But remember, it might not be effective for deeper sun damage!
      Hugs back from Luxembourg! 😉❤️

      Well, dark circles are mostly caused by genetics, so I'm not sure how effective the treatments we currently use really are. But you can use them together! :) There's also the argireline solution you could try, and some even use Ascorbyl Glucoside to help brighten the eye contour, although I've never heard back from someone to confirm if that has actually worked. 🤔 But I mean, it's worth a try for sure. If I had such concerns, I would probably go with Ascorbyl Glucoside.

Apart from that, there shouldn't be an issue ;) Just play around and test it, have fun 😉

      Hey,
      Well, technically, you use all of them in the same routine. However, based on my experience, it is too much for the skin, and therefore I recommend using only 2-3 serums in one routine.
      AM:
      Cleanser
      Argireline (forehead and around the eyes)
      Niacinamide
      (SPF when exposed to the sun)
      PM:
      Cleanser
      Buffet
      Alpha Arbutin
      And you can use all of them on the face and neck except for Argireline which should only be used on the forehead and around the eyes.

      Hello 🙃
      Yes, that should be alright. However, please keep in mind to adjust it to your personal needs and preferences, and consider how it feels on your skin. Sometimes layering a moisturizer afterwards may feel too heavy or greasy, depending on the overall formulation.
      And the vitamin c serum along with Glycolic Acid should be enough, no need to use anything else.

      That is basically just water which you could use as a toner if you like, but I like to use these sprays just during the day to get a refreshing feeling 😉 And yes, you could still do the routine. Just skip that step.

    • @MelissaVanDijkOfficial
      @MelissaVanDijkOfficial  Год назад

      No, the skincare set you are referring to does not include a retinol product. It only contains a balm cleanser, a Glycolic Acid exfoliant, an eye serum, and a vitamin C serum. However, you could add a retinol product on the days when you are not using the Glycolic Acid exfoliant, essentially alternating between the two.

    Can I use the cleanser even if I have oily skin? I’m scared about the “on dry skin” even Before actually washing it and I really don’t want to clog my pores :(

    • @MelissaVanDijkOfficial
      @MelissaVanDijkOfficial  Год назад

      It is a balm cleanser; it is applied to dry skin like oil cleansers. But no, it does not clog your pores if you wash it off properly. And it is suitable for all skin types. However, if you do not use mineral sunscreen or heavy makeup, it is likely not needed, and a regular foaming cleanser for oily skin works better! :)

    All I can say Melissa...the coffee solution was for me to drying... I guess if you use a moisturizer immediately afterwards helps... will not repurchase again....the glycolic acid?!!!! Great product BUT, unfortunately to strong.. excellent as a body exfoliating product....perfect for the feet and elbows!!!...it can also " help" under your armpits...but beware.... not to often.....hahaha..like with most exfoliating products ...happy skincare!!

    • @MelissaVanDijkOfficial
      @MelissaVanDijkOfficial  2 года назад

      Yes, it would help if you balanced it with another serum. But it works well for oily skin types. Glycolic Acid is very strong; yes, you need to use it less often or probably not at all 😅 I think it depends on the skin and age. If you are older 50+, it may be very beneficial to use it daily. But most people around my age just overdo it, and therefore they end up with irritation... 😞

      @@user-ee4id9kn1t That's very nice of you. Overall, the best thing your mom can do is to avoid the sun as much as possible. Additionally, she should wear sunscreen with a high SPF and PA rating whenever she has to be in the sun. This will help fade her tan over time. Therefore, I would recommend investing in a good sunscreen for your mom. For example, consider the 'Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun Rice + Probiotics SPF 50+ PA++++'.

      AHA = Alpha Hydroxy Acids and Glycolic Acid is one of them. The Peeling solution contains a very high amount of Glycolic Acid so adding it after the peeling solution is not a good idea since you would exfoliate the skin twice.

      Well, Glycolic Acid is usually recommended for those with drier skin.
      These would be the products for your oily skin - if you want to recreate the set:
      The Ordinary Glucoside Foaming Cleanser, Caffeine Solution, 2% Salicylic Acid Solution, Ascorbyl Glucoside Solution (water-based serum) or their Ethylated Ascorbic Acid Solution (water-free serum), (Optional) Natural Moisturizing Factors + Beta Glucan.
