@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial thank you! 🙂
It is really good for those with acne-prone skin. It clears away the spots and make skin look clear. But on the other side it make skin very dry for those with dry skin. Anyone with oily skin they could go for it.
This is true, I used twice a day and made my skin dey
if the acid has dried out the skin on your face, I advise you to use a moisturizing cream after the serum, it will make your skin soft and clear
What if you have normal skin?
@@crunchybirdy it would be good but i do not suggest twice a day
@@Murfeynews What if I use a cleanser with salicylic acid in the morning and then a salicylic acid serum at night? Would it make a difference since I would be washing the cleanser off after like 20 seconds
you're so sweet trying to help everyone, i really appreciate it
Thank you so much!!
i actually dont follow one of these kind of influencers but you're the first one I follow because its really good. You say whats important, show how to use it and what i find the most important, what not to use or mix with. That is rare. Other influencer talk the whole day but dont say what is important so you're a big W
🥰
You can definitely use it with Vitamin C! Look up dermatologists contents on the subject. I personally use it before the Vitamin c and the combo is everything. Not for acne prone skin though .It's heaven for oily skin like mine .
It depends on the type of Vitamin C that's being used (Ascorbic Acid or a Vitamin C Derivative), the %, formulation, frequency of use (as well as what else you may be using), and your skin tolerance. Since I don't know that from every viewer, it's a great guide.
Love the hair!
So helpful especially those that i need to avoid combining it with
Thanks very much for this 🙏🏼
🥰
Why avoid these combinations? Most salicylic acid products have those chemicals too
You have said that we can't use these specific products together at once, but can you clarify the following as well for me?
Can I use these products at different times on the same day?
Can I layer the following products together?
Should I avoid using the other products while I'm using this specific acid?
Specifically I want to use glycolic acid and vitamin c serum.
Yes, you can use them at different times of the day or on alternate days. I recommend using the exfoliating acids on separate days. You can use Vitamin C in the AM and then one of the exfoliating acids in the PM.
Thank You dear for this helpful video. Which is better minimalist vs the ordinary?
I prefer the one I showed in this video :)
1.Should I use it before or after moisturizer
2. If I use it in the night is it compulsory to wear sunscreen in the morning
3. What percentage should I use as I have sensitive skinn
Pls answers these questions😊
What's your skin type?
If you have a drier skin type, use either their 2% Salicylic Acid Anhydrous Solution or follow with a moisturizer.
If you spend time outdoors in the sun, it is advised to wear sunscreen to protect the skin :)
Thank you so much 💓
How long should I let it sit before moving on to the next product in my routine? :D
I would give it a maximum of 2 minutes, but usually 30-60 seconds should be enough time for it to take effect.
THANK YOU SO MUCH QUEEN
Hey mam here is my skin care routine I just started can check this out weather this is right or wrong
Frist : I use cleanser
Second : I use vitamin C serum 2 drops each side
Third : I use salicylic acid serum 2 drops each side
Plz do reply plz plz
Hey! :)
Which Vitamin C and Salicylic Acid products do you use? Generally, I would use Salicylic Acid first, then wait for about 2 minutes, and then follow with Vitamin C. You can use between 3-5 drops.
Hi, thank you for the video! :D
I have a question if i include this in my routine it could help me with blackheads and whiteheads on my nose?
-Avène Cleanance gel
-Neutrogena hydroboost
-Anthelios oil correct sunscreen
Well, for future blackheads, yes. However, for those already present, I would highly recommend extractions. Otherwise, they won't go away, especially if they are deep within the skin.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficialexcellent advice. I got mine extracted and now I've kept my nose blackhead free with salicylic acid 2%>
Hello,
Can i use niacinamide 10% serum after using Salicylic acid serum.
yes, of course :)
Thank you.
Thank you i reallt needed this i totally put more than i was supposed to and was wondering why it burned Dx but when i did it like you did i was fine 😓
Hi Melissa!
what should go first hydrating toner or the salicylic 2% serum?
You can use them in either order.
Hello Melissa :) How long should I wait to apply moisturiser after salicylic acid?
I am using CeraVe Foaming Facial Cleanser, The Ordinary Salicylic Acid 2% Serum then CeraVe PM Facial Moisturizing every night.
Is it a right way? I usually use salicylic at night.
I would recommend waiting for 1-2 minutes, but not longer.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial thank you :)
This is my routine now:
1) Kielh cleanser
2) Exfoliating powder
3) Toner
4) Ordinary salicylic acid
5) Kiehl hyaluronic acid
6) Moisturizer
I wonder after using the salicylic acid, how long should I wait before applying 1.5% hyaluronic acid. And after applying hyaluronic acid, do I need to rinse off or just leave it? And do I directly apply the moisturizer after that or how long should I wait? Thanks
Wait for about 1-2 minutes after applying your Salicylic Acid, then follow with your HA serum allowing it to absorb (approximately 30 seconds to 1 minute), and then follow up with your moisturizer.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial if I go out do I apply face sunscreen after moisturizer? And how long do I need to wait before applying sunscreen?

Before. See here: ruclips.net/video/BRsPrhHDe_I/видео.htmlsi=HYrcoAg7TH2uWdHH
Hello Melissa, hope you will read this. I'm a man and new in the skincare since a week. I bought a cerave foaming cleanser, the ordinary nmf, the ordinary salycilic mask and the ordinary niaciname 10% + zinc. After washing my face with the cleanser my face is a little bit dry. But after using the nmf with 3 drops of the niacinamid its ok. Until now i used the mask one time and think it was fine with my skin. My Problem is at the chin and mouth. There are often whiteheads in my beard. Do you think i could use the 2% salycilic acid serum there to handle these? If i would use the mask i couldnt wash it off and i think once a week would be to less for these whiteheads 😢 hopefully you could give me an advise.
Hey :)
Yes, the salicylic acid serum would be perfect for this and may yield good results. However, it's important to note that results can vary. Personally, I have had the best experience with a Benzoyl Peroxide spot treatment (2,5-5%). I only apply it to the whiteheads/breakouts as it tends to work quicker, which better suits my needs.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial Thank you very much. I will Look for benzoyl Peroxide. Never Heard about that but i will give it a try. Like i said my skin feels after cleansing a little bit dry. Do you think i could use a Hyaluronic acid after cleansing and before using the nmf +ha in combination with niacinamide?
@@svu6656 Well, the skin may feel dry immediately after cleansing, but usually, it should regain its balance fairly quickly. However, you could indeed use a Hyaluronic Acid serum in between or mix it with your moisturizer. Alternatively, Niacinamide is another option you could consider. There are many possibilities to explore, so just experiment and see what feels best on your skin. :)
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial ah OK thought maybe the cleanser is Not the right one. Actually i'm using niacinamide in the morning and evening. So do you think i should try this first without Hyaluron? Thought i could use both top benefit from both. But you recommend only using one of Them If I understand you right?
@@svu6656 There is no need to worry about the dryness if it rebalances after a short time :) Try your current skincare products for a few weeks before changing/or adding anything else. The skin always needs a bit of time to adjust to the products :) Although, you may want to consider getting a low strength Benzoyl Peroxide cleanser or gel for your whiteheads :)
Please help me some people told me to apply it on wet skin and other people told me to apply it on dry skin so what is the correct option??
Could you please share the names of the people or links where they suggested applying it to wet skin? I'm interested in seeing them.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial they are Arabic people + please you didn't answer my question lm worry cause l applied it on wet skin
@@lcantstopme5622 No, do not apply the exfoliant on wet skin. Pat dry the excess water with a clean towel before applying, as demonstrated in the video. This applies not just to exfoliants, but to all skincare products.
Hi Melissa. Hope you’re doing good.
I am using cetaphil cleanser + rose water toner + ponds hydra gel cream and then neutrogena moisturizer in my AM routine. Should I include this as well? Or just keep it for PM?
Why do you use two moisturizers?
Could you share your skin type and any specific concerns you have regarding your skin?
Oh. My bad.
I meant neutrogena sunscreen.
@@SimranKaur-ur5ht Okay! Yes, that's fine.
Should we apply sunscreen after that?
If you use it in the AM, yes.

Hi! I suddenly have multiple little acnes and pimples. Maybe stress or the oils I eat in my salad. Idk. I have this Salicylic but is it going to help reduce them?
Well, it depends on what's causing these little pimples in the first place. Since when do you have these pimples and since when are you using SA? What else do you use?
It's best to figure out the root cause to 'cure' it in the most effective way. However, yes, Salicylic Acid, Benzoyl Peroxide, or Retinol should help to reduce/lessen pimples, but it also depends on which ingredient your skin reacts to the best.
Can we use it with 2% glutathione with 3% tranexamic acid?
yes
If we use at night, do we need to apply sunscreen next day, while going out? Kindly reply
If you have a lot of sun exposure, yes
Hi, How are you ? Sorry for bothering you but i got some few questions.
I’m kinda new in skincare routine and i wanted to know if my skincare routine is good or bad, so
In the morning (By order)
- Glucoside foaming cleanser
- Skin Active Eye Bright Vitamine C Enlumineur
- Garnier anti-blemish serum (4% AHA + BHA(Salicylic Acid) + Niacinamide)
- Moisturizer
- SPF
At night :
-Glucoside foaming cleanser
- Skin Active Eye Bright Vitamine C Enlumineur
- Moisturizer
Well, it depends on many factors such as your skin type, the concerns you have, and your overall skin tolerance for these products. So, if you give me more information about that, as well as the name of the moisturizer you use, I can help you a bit better. :)
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial So, i have a normal to oil skin. I have a little bit of sebum and sebaceous filaments. I never had a « skin care routine » tbh before, i just wash my face and put moisturizer. The Anti-Blemish serum (4% AHA + BHA+ Niacinamide) is from Garnier. The Glucoside foaming i use is from Inell and named « Inell Gel nettoyant visage » and the eyes cream i have is from Garnier and named « skin active eye bright vitamine c enlumineur Garnier ». I don’t have a spf yet but i think it’s necessary to have one especially if you use salicylic acid no ? Sorry for my english i’m french btw
Bonjour ;)
Use your eye cream after your serum. The rest of your routine looks good. How long have you been following it, and how's it going so far? By the way, it's also fine to skip using a moisturizer, especially in the AM when applying sunscreen. Do you experience a lot of sun exposure? Where do you live - in the south of France?
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial Okay thanks ! I’m doing that since a few days/weeks and my skin feels and seems way better. I have experienced a bit of sun exposure but it really depend of the day, i’m from the south of France(Toulouse) and i live now in a french island of Indian Ocean named « Reunion Island »
Btw i’m 20yo and i wanted to know if this is good to use these types of products especially exfoliant products
@@nathanm6251 Okay, well, if you spend a lot of time outdoors, I highly recommend wearing sunscreen. If you spend most of the time at home, it's not needed, or you can simply apply it properly in the morning, and it should provide you with enough protection for the entire day.
Oh, really? I know a great swimmer from Toulouse, and I also have a friend on Reunion Island whose family owns some real estate and produces rum ;)
Hey Melissa ..I have used minimilast salicylic before and then switched to ordinary…it was working fine for me I have reached half of the bottle but yesterday it gave me swelling under the eyes and my skin became red and itchy dry..I used it alone ..didn’t mix with any other actives..can u please tell me the reason?
how often did you use it 🤔? But generally it is because the acid can cause the skin to dry out and become more sensitive to other irritants.
I thought i was using it wrong cuz my skin just dries up immediately, but nvm
Same
I've heard patting skin care products are more beneficial than rubbing it in. Any advice?
No, it's the same; the key is to apply it evenly to the areas you want to target.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial thank you 😊
Should i use it after cleaning my face with extra virgin olive oil?
Hey! 😊
What's your skin type, and what are your skin concerns?
Do you usually use olive oil?
Can I use this with the Cerave hydrating cream to foam cleanser? I discovered it has a little bit of salicylic acid in it( I’m trying to get rid of my blackheads).
Yes, that's fine! :)
Hi Melissa, I don't have acne.. I just have forehead bumps. I've been using vitamin c serum, but it ain't working.
So, should I go for salicylic acid to treat it ?
What do you mean by 'forehead bumps'? If Vitamin C is ineffective, I would suggest considering retinol or glycolic acid instead. Apply it specifically to the areas where you have the bumps.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial I meant closed comedones ..
Ok, try an exfoliant or get a 2,5%-4% Benzoyl Peroxide Cleanser :)
Very informative video
I wanted to ask if the seal of the serum is open and if there is no protective film cos mine had none and I just want to know if it's orginal or not
And pls can you tell abiut the texture and smell of it
Thanks 😃
I order from The Ordinary website, and their products have never had a protective seal. They simply come in their boxes with a leaflet, and that's it. The product has a chemical-like scent, and its texture is a bit thicker than water, as you can see in the short.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial thank you for the answers
I really appreciate your work 😊
Can I put sunscreen and moisturizer on top?
Yes, but use your moisturizer (if used in the AM) before applying your SPF.
Hi Melissa can I use salicylic acid solution 2% after applying snail mucin Essence ? Or just simply cleanser then salicylic acid ?
Yes, that's fine! :)
Hey Melissa I was wondering if u could use a salicylic cleanser and acid or do u think I should just use one 🤔 I’m very new to skincare I have been doing it for a couple of months I don’t have any pimples or stuff I just have very textured skin 😅 I been looking for lots or serum and stuff I found so many I don’t know which ones will actually helps so I been watching u at least 2 hour a day trying to figure it out but it is confusing as heck!!😅
In your case, it's best to use an AHA like glycolic acid to improve textured skin faster. Alternatively, you can try using a retinol or retinoid, which should also produce great results.
Here's a skincare routine from The Ordinary that's specifically designed for textured skin: ruclips.net/video/Jkm60KDnhfw/видео.html
what step should i use it in my routine? i typically do exfoliator, cleanser, toner, and then moisturizer. where would the serum fall in this routine, and how far apart should i do the other steps after using the serum?
Do you have a physical exfoliator? What are the other products you are using? Can you please list them with the exact names? That makes things easier.
Hello ma'am.
May i use this serum along with minimalist 10% vitamin C serum? Or can i use vitamin c in the morning and salicylic acid in the night? I need vitamin c for a brighter complexion and salicylic acid for smooth skin. How must i use them both? Kindly advise me.
You can use one in the morning and the other in the evening, or use both together, or on alternate days. You'll need to test and see what works best for your personal skin needs. That's the best advice I can give you.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial Thank You so much!
Can I use in the morning vitamin c serum and the night salicylic acid 3 times in a week and retinol 2 times in a week
Plz plz reply
Well, it depends on your personal skin tolerance for these products and the overall strength you've picked. It's hard to say, but it sounds like a good start!

hey can i use the odinary salicylic acid 2% everyday ?
You can, but start by using it 2-3 times per week and gradually increase the frequency.
Is it okay if i use Sailicylic Acid one night and Retinol the other night?
Yes :)
Hi melissa. Is it okay to use it everyday with these products:
Cerave hydrating cleanser
Simple facial toner
The ordinary Hylauronic Acid
The ordinary salicylic acid
The inkey list succinic acid spot cream
Vit c garnier brightening moisturiser
What's your skin type? If it's oily, I recommend using CeraVe's Foaming Cleanser instead.
As for the rest, your routine looks good. Still, how often you can use The Ordinary's Salicylic Acid Solution depends on your skin tolerance. Start with once per day, 2-3 times per week, and adjust the frequency over time.
Also, in the beginning, you may want to use The Ordinary's Salicylic Acid Solution and TIL Spot Treatment in separate routines to see how your skin tolerates them individually before using them together.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial hi my skin is dry/combo. in some areas it gets oily like the t area and around my chin. moving into winter it tends to get very dry
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial also thanks for your help, really appreciated :)
Hello can I use aha bha. Pha clarify toner after salicylic acid serum?😊
Generally, no. BHA is the same as Salicylic Acid, so you would be doubling up on that. Additionally, using AHA and PHA, which are other exfoliating acids, at the same time could be excessive. It's best to alternate to prevent overwhelming the skin over time.
Should I not use glycolic acid 7% toner after using this product? Also which is better this product or some Salicylic Acid toner?
Correct, as both products exfoliate the skin. What are your skin concerns? What skincare products are you currently using? See here: ruclips.net/video/aP45iWrvSSM/видео.htmlsi=SlBwx-WSP0oCNWE3
Hi! Quick question, I heard/read somewhere that you shouldn't mix salicylic acid serums and niacinamide serums together? Im kind of curious because I use and enjoy the ordinarys niacinamide 10% + zinc 1% serum and want to use the salicylic acid 2% solution to deal with my breakouts but now Im not sure if I should use them together or not.
Yes, mixing them can influence the pH of the formulation, leading to reduced efficiency of Niacinamide and possibly Salicylic Acid (SA) as well. Therefore, you should apply them in layers, one after the other. Apply SA and wait a couple of minutes before applying the Niacinamide serum.
Hello!
I have oily and acne prone skin.
It will be very helpful if you suggest some products for me from the brand(Cosrx) which I should include in my skincare....please
COSRX Skincare Routine for Oily Acne Prone Skin
ruclips.net/video/RinIFMA0T34/видео.html
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial thank you so much❤️
Hello!
I have oily and acne prone skin.
Is it fine if I use Cosrx Salicylic acid daily cleanser ,COSRX AHA BHA Clarifying Treatment toner, Cosrx Snail Mucin Essence, the ordinary salicylic acid 2% solution, Cosrx snail cream and Cosrx aloe soothing sun cream together?
Maybe for a few days, yes. 😉
But no, this is too potent since you are essentially using three exfoliating acid products in the same routine. This exposes the skin to a significant amount of acids, which can lead to irritation and sensitivities over time.
So, I would suggest using either the AHA BHA Toner or the SA solution. If you already have both, consider alternating them, perhaps daily, if you tolerate it well.
Additionally, I recommend using sunscreen during the daytime and the moisturizer only in the evening. Otherwise, it may be too much, especially if you also use the snail cream during the day, since you are already using the snail mucin and then the hydrating sunscreen.
I also would like to use the The Ordinary Ascorbic Acid 8% + Alpha Arbutin 2%, Vitamin C. So when do I use the vitamin C serum and when do I use the salicylic acid?
You can use your Vitamin C serum in the AM and Salicylic Acid in the PM :)
Heyyyy Melissa!! Can I use this product with “Cerave foaming cleanser”, “innisfree dewy glow toner”, “cerave moisturizing lotion”?
Yes you can! :)
Thank you so much for the answer! You are always so helpful! :D
Can we use if we have active acne ?? Is it good for pigmentation too?
Yes, however, I recommend getting to the root cause of your acne which may get triggered by stress, lack of sleep or your diet.
Hey Melissa,
I have tiny bumps on my nose post acne and is been there for a long time,
Can i use minimalist SA cleanser and SA serum together or should I use just serum?
If your skin tolerates both of them well in the same routine, then yes. However, I would recommend using something like Azelaic Acid or Alpha Arbutin for your post-acne marks.
Should we use it morning and evening or just morning, just evening? Also , do I need to apply sth else after?

What i want to know is that, I've been using the moisturizer that has other acids, is it okay to use that moisturizer in the morning and use another type of moisturizer in the even after applying the serum?
Hey! :)
What's the name of your moisturizer?
Also, here is the in-depth video: ruclips.net/video/aP45iWrvSSM/видео.htmlfeature=shared
Hi mam.
Can we use a toner before salicylic acid. Or should we apply SA directly after cleansing ? I’m currently using the Laneige toner
Yes, you can use a toner before applying your exfoliant! :)
Why can't I use it with vitamin c, I think they go together very well.
It depends on the strength, pH, and your skin's tolerance. The Ordinary offers Vitamin C Suspensions containing 23-30% Ascorbic Acid, which can potentially lead to sensitivities and irritation.
Can i use tretinoin in the morning and salicylic acid serum at night?
I wouldn't do that, use both at night but on alternate days.
hey thank you so much, i have a question!! Are we suppose to wash face after 10-15 mins or overnight ?? im so confuse !!
No, it's a leave-on exfoliant, which means that you leave it on the skin. However, it wouldn't be wrong to use it as a mask as well. 😊
I noticed you applied this under your eyes so I did the same. My under eye is so dry and darker. Did it thin my skin? The difference between my under eye area and yours is that you have no bags. I think you should mention that when you give instructions. Had someone said to not apply under eye, I would not have. It’s so confusing when directions on bottle say do not get in contact of eye. I assume that means, do not our IN the and if so flush it out. I watched your video and did the same you did. I only used this once. Did my under eye thin out?
Generally, if you've noticed your under-eye skin becoming dry and darker after just one use, it's possible that your skin is sensitive to this product. While salicylic acid doesn't typically thin the skin with a single use, it can cause irritation or dryness that might make the skin appear thinner or more delicate, especially if you are sensitive to the product. However, I did not apply it under the eyes and advised avoiding the eye area. The product instructions do not specifically mention this, but I know that these acids can easily cause irritation when applied near the eyes, which is why I said to avoid the eye area.
Can I use minimalist 2% salicylic acid 2 times a week and rest of the week niacinamide serum 10%& zinc 1%
If that works for you, yes :)
Can i use it with hyaluronic acid? Together
Yes
Hi , how many times can i use it in the week
And before or after moisturizing???
Well, that depends on your skin's individual tolerance. Some people can use it daily or even twice a day, while others might only use it every other day or just 2-3 times per week. It's essential to test and see what works for you. And remember, use it before applying moisturizer.
Which serum is best for comedonal acne?? Please reply
You could try a retinol or adapalene (0.1%), but I think the best approach would be to look at the root cause of the acne to effectively target it in the long term!
Helloooo!! I just got this serum because I have oily skin that breaks out on my cheeks and forehead with blackheads on my nose so I wanted to give it a shot. The only this is I'm scared it'll cause me to purge. Do you know or think this product will make me susceptible to that?? Thanks
How your skin reacts to Salicylic Acid (or any product, really) is very individual. So, I cannot tell you if your skin will or won't purge from it. However, I also recommend looking into factors like stress, lack of sleep, and your diet. See here: www.youtube.com/@MelissaVanDijkOfficial/community
Google said Daily usage of SA increase the chance of absorption through the skin and the chance of salicylic acid poisoning. Is it true????
Yes, daily use of salicylic acid can increase the chance of absorption through the skin, potentially leading to salicylic acid poisoning. However, with normal concentrations available on the market, typically around 2% (or less), this is generally not a concern. At these concentrations, salicylic acid is considered safe for regular use when applied appropriately and in moderation.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial thank you very much for your valuable replay.I have asked many RUclipsrs this question in the comments. No one answered except you. Not only mine, but also viewers' questions have not been answered. But you answered everyone. Wish you all the best.

Hii sister i accidentally bought the ordinary niacinamide serum instead of the salicylic acid. Does that too help clearing the skin and acne.
Salicylic Acid and/or Niacinamide may help to reduce acne marks/acne. However, if your acne comes from internal factors such as inflammation due to stress, lack of sleep, or dietary issues, then these treatments likely won't be effective (for acne itself) because they don't target the root cause. In my case, my acne is related to my diet. See here: www.youtube.com/@MelissaVanDijkOfficial/community
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial thank you soo much 😊
Is it work for a combination skin with acne? Does it dry the face
Yes, you can use it for your skin type. If you experience dryness, use it less often or combine it with a hydrating serum or a light gel-type moisturizer (see here: ruclips.net/video/aP45iWrvSSM/видео.htmlsi=iERc40mvw-1lYzGf ). However, I also recommend investigating what's causing your acne in the first place, such as lack of sleep, stress or mental health issues, environmental factors, or your diet (such as consuming too much sugar, processed food, fast food, or any food intolerance).
So i'm a guy, my skin is different as far as i know however. Can i cleanse my face, put salyclic acid, wait a few minutes, put niacinamide and put day/night probiotica cream?
Yes, that's fine.
Don't you use a moisturiser after applying the salicylic acid?
It's not needed - unless you have dry skin/experience dryness.
Est-il efficace pour les grains de milium ??
If your skin responds well to it, maybe. However, I would suggest getting them extracted.
Hi Melissa,
Whenever I use this product, I get small cut wounds on my hands and a slight appearance of blood. Is this normal?
No, that's not normal! Do you get them on your face as well?
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial Yes, although not very regularly. Once, I used 4 drops and spread it all over the face, and the sides of my cheekbones became red and a burning sensation occurred. I didn't use it for one day and used 1 drop the next day. There was no problem. Then, when I went to another city, I could not use the product. Now, when I returned home and used it again, I saw a small wound on my hand and wanted to write about it.
@@berkeuysal1096 Okay, so you are probably using too much of it and/or using it too often. However, if the issue persists, I recommend stopping its use altogether. What are your specific skin concerns? Are you using any other products?
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficialI have black spots on my nose and my cheeks, around my face, forehead etc. are porous. First, I use La Roche cleansing gel, then I use The Ordinary's salicylic acid and niacinamide, then Garnier moisturizer and
i use La Roche's sunscreen. Actually, I don't use salicylic acid very much. I was using it once a day, I don't know. I'll try it for a week and see if I get the same results, I'll stop.
How long should I wait to apply moisturiser after applying salicylic acid?
About 2 minutes :)

i use the serum with 3 drops right after cleansing on dry skin, but when i massage the serum to my face theres always like dried glue and peeling. am i doing it wrong?
This is referred to as skincare pilling. Do you wash your face thoroughly? If so, what type of cleanser are you using?

What stuff do u recommend to get rid of acne I have been trying to get rid of it for a long time and it won’t go away! I use cerave daily moisturizer lotion and the ordinary what else should I add to my skin care routine ? and what Is the soap or lotion u used in the video and Is glow recipe a good thing to use on ur face?
Perhaps you could take a look at my community tab. I am currently conducting an experiment, and so far, it looks amazing. Essentially, I cared less, used only water, and adjusted my diet and lifestyle, as I believe these were the major triggers of my acne. I think this will be the case for many people.

@@MelissaVanDijkOfficialokay ty!
Can i apply vitamin c serum at night and salicylic acid serum at morning?
And can i apply a baby moisturizer after salicylic acid serum?
yes and yes.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial thank you ma'am for the reply 🤗
Can i used this every day?.. can use together with niacinamide?.
Yes and yes, if your skin tolerates it. Otherwise, use the salicylic acid solution, or perhaps even niacinamide less often! :)
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial Thanks for the reply ❤️😊
Since ive used this product i think my breakout is getting worse and leaves dark marks, is this purging or should i stop using the product
Difficult to tell, but it could be that you're not tolerating the salicylic acid (SA) well; it's not uncommon. However, for how long have you been using it, and how often? Also, are there other skincare products that you use along with it?
Would it be too much if I used Salic Acid 2% and then a Salic Acid moisturiser?
Well, it depends on your skin tolerance and how often you would be using them together. 😊
Can we use salicylic acid serum daily
See here: ruclips.net/video/aP45iWrvSSM/видео.htmlsi=8OI5JTnmVI4LIzfF
Please how many times in a week should I use the ordinary salicyclic acid
Technically, you can use it daily, but it largely depends on your personal skin tolerance and what else you may be using in your routine. So, if you use retinol or other exfoliating acids, then it may not be a good idea to use it daily.
In the ordinary set, there’s also a beta glucan, what’s that use for?
Also do you just let the drops absorb into your skin?
It's a moisturizer. Did you get the clear set? If so, take a look here: ruclips.net/video/BRsPrhHDe_I/видео.htmlsi=p7cNUvrh5hHc1hQK
Can i use vitamin c at morning
And salicylic acid at night?
Is it a good combination?
I have oily skin btw
Depends on the products you have, so which one do you use? 🤔
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficialminimilist
@@reliefmusic313 Yes, this can work :)
Can I use sun screen after applying the salicylic acid??
If you want to use it in the AM, yes.
this video is soo helpful thank you!! Can i use it with la roche posay effectual Duo + ??
I would recommend using them at different times since both can have a drying effect on the skin.
We should leave the acid on the face in all the night or we can clean with water after 30 min
Technically, both options are possible.
Before or after moisturiser?
Before :)
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial thank you!
Hello, I would like to ask you some questions
How many times do I use it per week?
And how long do I leave it on my skin.
Is it permissible to use it with a moisturizer from Simple?
Can I use simple lotion before it? ❤
Hello,
Technically, you can use it daily if that is the only exfoliant or treatment you are using. However, if you are using others like retinol, alternating days would be the best idea. Overall, though, it depends on your personal skin tolerance for these products.
For the moisturizer, I would recommend using a light gel afterwards.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial Thank you for your reply. I do not have a gel moisturizer. Does it affect whether I use Simple or not, because this is what I have
If the moisturizer doesn't clog your pores, feel free to continue using it. Otherwise, consider either skipping moisturizer altogether or exploring a gel-based alternative.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial I will take your advice into consideration, thank you and good luck. I wish you a happy life 💕🫂
Whenever I use it, mine like lathers up and looks white? Can someone explain why it happens?
Do you rub it harshly? If so, try to do it more gently. However, overall, it's just air that gets trapped underneath, which is not a reason for concern.
This is happening to me too. It almost goes on like a cleanser that I need to wash off. I couldn’t just leave it like that so I’ve had to rinse it off. Not sure what to do.
@@natasharobertson5212 Make sure to properly cleanse your face and rinse off the cleanser completely, then pat the skin dry. After that, use around 5 drops or less. If it foams a bit, it's likely due to the application. However, that foam should disappear quite quickly.
How long we should put on our face
Well, you can leave it on until the next day as these are leave-on products. Personally, I use them like this:
PM:
Cleanse face.
Pat dry.
Apply the SA serum.
I rinse it off the next morning with my cleanser.
I used the Skin Republic Salycilic acid 2% for the first time tonight and bit worried.
When I opened the bottel it had a milky look and kinda lathered white. This is a new bottle so not sure.
I've never tried that formulation, so I don't know. However, if you are referring to foam, it could be that the product has been shaken, and therefore, it has this texture, but I'm not sure.
Hey what is the difference between this one and the anhydrous one? I don't know which one i should go for..i have combination type skin
The Ordinary SA Anhydrous Solution is great for those who have sensitive but also dry skin. So, in your case, I would use the normal one.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial thanks a lot❤️
But when i rub my hand or on face it got foam, whats the reason for this !
The foam is likely caused by air being added to the serum as you dispense/mix it.
Ma'am I'm using salicylic acid cleanser
Can i use this serum with this combination??
I recommend using either the SA Cleanser or the SA Serum. If you still want to use both, incorporate them into separate routines or alternate them on different days, depending on your skin's tolerance. Use a non-SA Cleanser when using the SA Serum.
Thank you so much ma'am ❤️
Should I use it two times a day everyday?
I think doing it once daily might be sufficient. Try that first and see how it goes. After a while, you can decide whether to increase or decrease the frequency based on how your skin responds. :)
