i just mixed the resveratol + ferulic with the vit c powder yesterday night and my skin was already much smoother the next morning , it's tempting to use it every night!
@@nestaross47 I put in the palm of my hand two pipes (? - in French it's pipette) of the resveratol oil and a mini spoon (the one that comes with the jar) of the vit c powder. But I don't recommend to do it every night, twice a week is enough. In the meantime I saw other videos saying that this method is bad because you can't really dose the vitamin c and putting more than 20% of it in the mix is just irritating and not doing much for your skin. Anyway if your skin reacts good, why not?
Thanks for the video. Which exact product did you use in this video to mix it. I see that it has a nice texture but I cannot figure out which one from the ordinary you used here. Thank you
Thank you for sharing this. I use Holland and Barrett pure Ascorbic acid (vitamin c)but it’s not the L-Ascorbic . Is that ok? Would it be any less effective. Many thanks
Reverastrol/ ferulic and this powder didn’t work. Somebody said water based serum is better. Now I’m testing marine serum and c powder. So far so good.
Hey James, thank you for your videos! In your previous review of the powder you said something about the l ascorbic acid needing a certain ph level to actually or properly be absorbed by the skin. After some research I found out that the ph-level was 4 - can I create that ph level when I mix it with the recommended resveratrol serum?
Hello and thank you so much for this video. I have just got this product a week ago and i am having a hard time using this . I have been using a full scoop and mixing it with my face cream which i have always used as it's the only one i have found that keeps my skin really hydrated. But since i have been mixing this vitamin c with it i have notice that my pores on my nose and round the side have become large a lot more than normal. Is this because i am using to much in one go of the vitamin c . My face cream is safe to use with this and i have been mixing it with a bit of lipade q10 oil serum booster from face theory before adding to the the cream to make sure it is completely dissolved. please could you advise me as i am at a complete loss and i got recommended your channel for help
Hi Pauline, I'm not sure why your pores are looking larger. Could it be that the vitamin has unclogged them? In that case they may reduce in size with time. The more powder you use means more moisturiser/serum you need to mix it with. Be careful now to apply too much product as this might unbalance your skin. Hope this helps : )
Hi James thanks alot for such an amazing video. Can l mix vitamin c l ascorbic powder with my daily moisturizer and apply daily morning and night??? Plz reply
Hi James, I missed you. Great informative video. I’ve been in London for a few days. Stood in a long line at The Ordinary’s Covent Garden location to buy some of your recommendations. Looking good. Your New York friend, Paul
This was super helpful, thank you so much! Would love to see another video with other ways you can use this powder. I just have been using this product for a couple days, mixing it with pure coconut oil. Do you think that is a good combination?
Hi Anisha, my latest video is a morning and evening skincare routine using the l ascorbic powder. That should give you some idea's of how to use it : )
I'm not sure. I guess it would work but I would stick with a moisturiser or face oil to ensure the finish is comfortable sit's well with other products.
No, it’s better to use vitamin c in the morning and vitamin a at night. Altough some research have shown they don’t have much of a problem together, I stil wouldn’t risk it!! In the video he talks about it!!!
The guidance you provided with this Ordinary 100% L-Ascorbic acid, even with a very tiny amount burnt my skin. I have been trying to remove the hyperpigmentation, but not successful. Can you please provide any suggestion to counter this horrible effect / reaction?
Hi ! If i mix this in my serum. Can i use any moisturizer after ? Because i have a moisturizer with Vitamin C , retinol and hyaluronic acid inside. Is it okay ?
Hi James! Just recently discovered your channel and what can I say, I love all of your videos! I wanted to ask you a question regarding the ordinary, I recently bought their lactic acid to deal with my whiteheads but I really don’t know how to integrate it in my skincare routine. Should I use it after my HA and before my moisturizer or right after washing my face? Also, can I use it daily? Thank you!
Hi Camilla - thank you! The Ordinary lactic acid has HA in it so I would apply it as your first step in your evening skincare routine. You can top it with a layer of your HA and seal it in with some moisturier or face oil.
James Just Now thank you so much for your reply X Sorry for bothering you again, I have one last question: can I use the L-ascorbic acid powder in the same routine with lactic acid? If yes, how should I layer them up? Thank you again ☺️
@@Camig1708 I'm happy to help! Technically the two will work together but if I were you I would use l ascorbic acid during the day as it's an antioxidant and reserve the lactic acid for your evening routine. Proceed with caution as I find l ascorbic acid can have an exfoliating effect on my skin. I haven't mixed the two personally so I'm not sure how you would layer them : )
@@JamesJustNow lovely, thank you! so so happy you take the time to answer to your subscribers (unlike most you tubers), it truly means a lot! I just ordered most of the products you mentioned in your reviews, can't wait to try them out :)
Can I mix the powder with Alfa - Arbutin serum ? After using the Pixi Glow Toner ? Or it’s better to mix the powder with rosehip oil ? Thank you ! From Italy !
I hope you or someone else can answer this. I have lots of hyperpigmentation on my body, so I want to use this powder on my body to make a serum. Right now I mix about 10 scoops with a few tablespoons of water and put that on my skin. Im afraid I am not using enough and it isnt working. It is not burning my skin at all. Is 10 scoops for a whole body enough? Im 5 ft 7
Hello you need to go watch Dr Vanita Rattan’s channel, she specialises in hyperpigmentation for melanin/ people of colour, she covers the best products from brands including the ordinary and the best way to use them as you can make the issue worse easily if done wrong! She’s really informative 🙂
Hi, I am very comfused that if i mix it with natural moisturizing factors of the ordinary ( ph 6.5 to 7 ) will it make the vitamic c ineffective? What about if i mixx it with the ordinary's rose hip seed oil? And can i mix the powder directly with drinking water and apply?
It seems you do not actually tell us 'what' you would mix this with. Other than two other Ordinary Brand oil-based products...maybe you have an example of things one might already have at home? Coconut Oil, Argon Oil? Just wondering a more simple 2 part solution. Thank you
No need to mix vitamin c powder with vitamin c serum. It's too much and may irritate your skin. The powder mixes well with a non fragranced face oil or a simple vitamin e moisturiser.
I have a question; I tone twice daily with paula’s choice 2% BHA liquid which has a pH of 3.2-3.8 which is quite acidic, I was just wondering if it’s okay to use the LAA or should I change my toner? I really love this toner though.... but i really wanna try the LAA :((
They will work together but it's likely they will sensitive your skin. You could use the LAA during the day and the BHA in the evening a few times a week. Just a suggestion : )
Hi .... I really liked your video . And I have a question! I use almond oil in my skincare routine... could I mix the Vitamin C with it ???? Most of the time I just use natural things as aloe Vera (plant) , coconut oil and sweet almond oil but I wanted to add something more to my routine...
i just started using the vitamin c powder with the resveratrol/ferulic acid serum. it feels really interesting 😂 i would love if you could review some face theory products btw! they have a moisturiser with vitamin c and retinol but i’m unsure if they formulated it the same way paula’s choice has.
Hey James! Watched your L-Ascorbic acid videos in the past and just watched this one. You previously talked about mixing it with the ordinary's marine hyaluronics, but I'm mixing it with Beauty Pie's Triple Hyaluronic Acid, and I'm not sure if it's the right thing to mix it with. I know you've said hyaluronic acid isn't the best thing to mix it with, but I love hyaluronic acid and don't want to buy yet another product if I don't have to. It's a thicker consistency than the ordinary's but I wonder if it's too thick. Have you (or anyone reading the comment??) had any experiments with those two products in particular??
Hi Maria, don't worry as it will work with any type of hyaluronic acid just avoid peptides and niacinamide. My personal preference right now is not to mix the powder with a water based serum if it's sitting on my skin all day because it will oxidise faster. The moisture in our skin will activate the l ascorbic acid so I prefer a water free formula or something without a high water content. That's just me being very strict so feel free to keep doing what you're doing if it works for you : ))
the ordinary vitamin c powder is very expensive per gram when compared to other pure vitamin c powders when they're exactly the same! cheaper alternatives can be found on amazon :)
Hello James!!! Your video was great and very informative!!! Thank you for sharing knowledge!! I am an Ordinary fan and been using their products for a year and a half. Great stuff!! I have been mixing half a scoop of the powder with 4-5 drops of the Resveratrol 3% + Ferulic Acid 3% . I know that it's working i can see the results on my skin but it's difficult to use this during the day because it feels a little grainy when I apply it. So the last 3 days I've decided to add 2 drops of Hyaluronic Acid in the mixture.. It stung the first day but the following day was all right!Glowing skin an glided on smoothly!! I would really appreciate your opinion on this. Are 2 drops the right amount? Is the mixture good for the skin? Will a good amount of Vitamin C penetrate the skin or am I just wasting good products for nothing? Thank you in advance! I really hope you see this! :)
Hi James, perfect timing for this video. I have had the vitamin C powder for a few months and I have been having difficulty figuring out what to mix it with. When I try water-based serums and toners, I feel as though it oxidizes on my face! I have tried mixing it with the Res/Ferulic solution, but I like to top off with Squalane and a moisturizer. My moisturizer has water in it, so I’m not sure if that will promote oxidation. Would love to see your full AM routine using this product. Thank you so much!
Do you know what the PH level would be when using 4-5 drops of the Resveratrol 3% + Ferulic Acid 3% with a small amount of the 100% L ascorbic acid using the back end of the scoop provided in the package?
