What did you think of the video? Was it helpful? :)
Amazing!! I was doing research and I was realizing I needed to have my skin dry before applying the actives and now you come up with this video, so perfect. Your content is gold, thanks for sharing.
absolutely! you did what you do best, you broke it down and made it less complicated than it was in my (our) head :D
@@bombonachic4875 Yay, so happy to hear that!!! :)
@@ichmagaber Aw I love that, I was hoping I conveyed the point simply enough! :)
OMG LOOOOVED THE VIDEO IT IS REALLY GOOD AND LOADED WITH AMAZING INFOS. THANK YOU OLENA
Your skin is really beautiful! I can't really stop staring
Duvessa Clove that’s very kind, thank you! 🤩
I have no idea how your channel is not more popular, the information you provide is TOP TIER! I have only just started using your recommendations and my skin is changing so much its insane. thank you!
Thank you so much, I definitely try to put out the best info I can do that it’s genuinely useful. Hopefully you’ll share my channel with your friends ❤️🙌🥳
This is the video I've been waiting for.......
I knew it!!! I've been wondering why the heck am i burning/irritating after i applied sunscreen
Hi olena, sending you love from indonesia
I’ve been wondering about that too , i assumed we still use the active after the 3 step MM because its a suspension and it supposed to use after the moisturizer
@@bintipakyus hello kamu dm aja aku inshaallah aku ngerti dan aku bakal jelasin ke kamu 😊😊 annis.fraa
Hi Olena. Thanks for amazing content. Its really helpful. I wanna know if azelaic acid can be used before 3 step MM? As consistency of Azelaic acid is a bit suspension/creamy type while hyaluronic acid is watery serum. What do you suggest? Thanks ❤
Olena, thank you SO MUCH! This is the video that I was looking for... how to integrated my actives with the 3 step moisture method... you content is gold 🤍
Yaaaay!! Happy to help ❤️🙏
If i apply sunscreen, should i use a double cleansing in the evening (micellar water and cleanser)?
Been waiting for this, you're the best Olena! 🌼🌹❤
Ishika Sachdeva thank you! 😃🎉
Thanku oleana this was a much needed information.
Also, is mineral oil should also be avoided in skincare products as it is also a type of oil?
I have so many post acne marks can you tell me how can I get rid of them
This is the most perfect video I swear.
Hi Olena! I just discovered your content when searching for remedies on "oily and flaky" skin...and I am so glad I did! I am always struggling with moisturizers that say they are for acne prone skin, but I continued to get pimples and extra oily skin and I knew something wasn't right. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! I am trying your 3SMM right now and can't wait to see how it works. Now, I am a little confused about what the difference is between adding actives to dry skin and the 2nd step of the 3SMM...I'm not sure what to do!! Lol
the last bit about masks... so yeah, like a few month back i decided it was an awesome idea to use masks every single night and went and bought like a ton of korean beauty masks.
Still havent recovered from that. Last night I descovered Olena and for 24h now all I did was watch her videos and read on her web page.... I love her.
Some people don’t believe me when I say these things - thank you so much for sharing your experience! 🤗❤️🥳
What do you think about exfoliation step? do we need exfoliator like clay mask/acid toner with bha aha?
Please watch my videos on products that you don't need in your routine ;)
I am really thankful to have found you a year ago over instagram. Since then, you are one of my favorites accounts EVER. Seriously, thank you. Great topic on this video also!
María Morena i really appreciate that! 🥰🙏🎉
I want to see it now.😞
Only 13 minutes to go! :)
Been waiting for this video and looks like I've been using my products in the correct order - yay! Thanks again for another great and informative video. 😍❤️
I don't understand what are actives??
BEAUTIFUL OLENA! 🤩 SENDING LOVE FROM PHILIPPINES 💘
Thanks so much!! Hopefully I’ll visit one day! 🙏🙌❤️
@@OlenaBeley PLEASE, OF COURSE!!! 💘 TAKE CARE ALWAYS 🙏🏼❤️❤️
Hey Olena thank you for your tips. I don't understand well, can I wet my face after active and them do 3 methods steps normally?
Renata Raiana yes. Cleanse, apply active, let the active dry, wet face to get it damp not dripping, hydrate, moisturize
@@KatherineHb great, thank you só much 😊
Hi Olena! Was wondering since you said to do the 3SMM after actives if you're suppose to actually start over & wash your face again with cleanser or you meant to pat face with water to apply the following steps, which is a humectant and moisturizer. If anyone else knows what she meant please let me know. Thanks!
Hi there, just wash face, apply actives, 3SMM (pat face with water etc.), sunscreen ❤️
Is niacinamide an active?
Hi Olena, whats your active product for AM? Thank youu
What's your opinion about actives like salicylic acid in cleansers?
I prefer more control over placement of actives (like not on the eyes), and I also see way better results with leave-on versus rinse-off products in my clients over the years.

So helpful!!! I was definitely doing it all wrong. Time to change it up tonight!
divya tiwari yay, happy to help! 🤩🎉
Been following you for a year and a half and I just want to say your content is still everything; positive, factual, no BS. Your energy is felt all the way from Miami so thank you!!! Xoxo
Aww I really appreciate that! Thank you so much!! 😍💋😘🙏👏
isnt this the spotify voice girl?
I have super oily skin, any actives you recommend?? Thank you!
Hi olena. I gave u a thums up. These kind of videos are super helpfull!! Could u make a video about the ingredients that we should avoid? Also ı wonder is ph important for moisturizer?
Esra Nas I’ll cover things like that in my skincare course because its not that simple 😃
Still watching this is 2023
Omg, love that!! So nice that a lot of these videos are still useful! 🥰
I'll save this video(better said all yours videos) for my children and grandchildren and grandgrandchildren, so useful! I was always wondering why, for God sake, girls need 1000 bottles of some skincare products 😵🤯 I always knew it was more harm than good and now when I see you and your goddess skin I know I was right. 😊 Thank you so much ♥️
ljix m awww that’s amazing!!! ❤️😃🙌🙌🙌
Olena, what if our active doesn't fully dry? I have the Skinceuticals Glycolic Acid which remains completely tacky as long as it is on my face. In this case do you advise to just wait a few minutes and go on with the 3 step moisture method? Thanks :)
Indeed! But only in the PM with AHAs please 👌
Olena Beley Thank you! I also ordered the Paula’s Choice Clear Anti-Redness Exfoliating Solution you used in your video about exfoliating skin from 3 years ago. Does that salicylic solution also need to be used at nighttime? 😊
Sooooo helpful
Thank you, I found the video to be very helpful. I love your necklace, where did you get it?!
Thank you, the necklace was from Zara ❤️
Olena, if my skin suddenly become full of pimple (start when i’m pregnant), and i can’t use active in pregnancy, what should i do?? 😭🙏🏻
azelaic acid is one of the few safe actives to use during pregnancy. I don’t know about others or if you already figured this out but azelaic acid has tons of data about safety and effectiveness that you can check online.
You looked like Thalia here.. 😊
Don’t know who that is 🙈
Please making a video about your skincare routine ..
My routine works for my skin, so I won't be sharing it on my channel as I don't want to promote copying of routines (the way other channels do). I want you guys to create your own routines that support and protect your skin! :)
You're the kindest person on Earth!! God bless you! ❤
She’s a complete narcissist
Today is my 2nd day following your method. Hope my skin will get better. Thank u a lot olena !
My pleasure! ❤️
🤩❤️🙌🏼
do I wash off the active once dried? Or do I just apply the hyaluronic acid without rinsing off the active?
i was watching utuberr from indonesia, she was recommending her viewer include me to visit this channel and iam totally love all your videosss 😍 so insightful, i enough tired looking for skincare product meanwhile i dunno how to apply skincare in a good way and sure i just spending my money too much, then my skin still breakout even getting worst:( 😂 keep it up oleenaaa, im about to follow your tips 😍 thankyou.
Nofia Safitri omg I’m so happy to hear that!!! Thank you so much!! 🙌🎉🥰🥳💖
Same with you! Just courius, is it from puspita mayangsari?
@@friskahappy8375 absolutely yaaashh!! 😍
This is the best video EVER!!!!! Thank you so much Olena 🥰 your way of explaining facts and information is the BEST!!!!
rachna sethi thanks so much! Happy you liked it!! 😃💖🙏🥳🎉🤩✨🤗
Hi Olena :)
Do you have any tips on how to tell, if the cleanser is actually cleansing properly?
Please watch my cleanser videos :)
Thank you for the information! I use Finacea Azelaic Acid with good results. Then I run out of it and because of the Covid-19 crisis I couldn't get a new one. So I didn't use it for a month. My skin wasn't really bad, but it wasn't like how it was when I used Finacea. I got some pimples again. Now my question... Is it important to always use an active in your routine or can there be a time that you don't need to use an active? And can skin get used to actives to the point it won't work anymore and you would need a new active? Or is that just marketing from beauty brands? XXX 🙋🏻♀️
Do you use it after the 3 MM or before ?
I always amaze with every videos you created. Sending you a bunch of love from indonesiaaa ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Aw thank you so much! :D
Hey Olena!
Thanks to you I learn a lot about skin, be better and feel better with myself because I always looked up to korean skin stuff which is unrealistic and pretty much a lot of makeup and effect, *cough* sorry. Anyway I always been so curious about your blonde hair, did you bleach and dye it? Or its your natural hair color??
Xoxo ❤
And how you maintain it? Because i can see you have really fine soft hair
Thanks again
Thank you for the compliment, maybe one day I will dye it but only if it can be done safely. I’ve shared my hair secrets with my Community (link in description) ❤️🙏
@@OlenaBeley thanks!
You look really good in blonde so good in blonde hair, so i thought you dye it 😂
Gotta watch this video twice to soak up all the knowledge 😉
Emily Jorgensen haha thank you!! 🤓🙏🎉
Hi!! Wondering if the multi peptide serum from TO (not their copper peptide serum!) is an active? Since it has hyaluronic acid in it I was thinking it should work as my hydrating serum? ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Technically it contains active ingredients, but there are different kinds of actives (this video is more about stronger ones).
I am from India...as it is monsoon season presently here, my skin started to break out few weeks back. To correct it, most of the products I am using right now (moisturizer, sunscreen, acne cream and night serum) all contain niacinamide in more or less quantity. I just wanted to know if I am overdoing it and will it affect my skin barrier?
I don't know anything about your skin/skin history/product details to be able to say if niacinamide in all your products is okay or too much for you! 🤗
Hey Olena,
How’re you?
Watching some of your UA-cam videos for 3rd or 4th time 😍
I have a small doubt,Is it fine for copper peptide serums to be applied after 3SMM for super sensitive peeps or its better to apply it before 3SMM?
Have a good day 🤝🌻
Dear olena..which actives should be used for acne prone skin n blackheads??oily skin?? Reply plz🥰🥰🥰
Thank you so much for your advice, Olena! So glad i found your channel 😊💖
My pleasure darling! ❤️❤️❤️
Are Actives absolutely important for everyone?
For eg - i have skin with dry patches, should i be using actives?
This is so helpful. Always worth the time to watch all ur videos!!
I really appreciate that! Thank you! :)
Absolutely fantastic. I learned something new! Can't wait to implement this new info into my routine 🙌
Yay, that’s wonderful!! 😍
Hi can you please tell me if vitamin c serum is necesary and when should I apply it!? Also I’m hesitating about retinol hope you can help me with more info about these thanks!! 😊
Hi Olena, thank you so much for your videos. I am using differin 0.1% and I am still purging (been using for 6 weeks). My texture however on my forehead is so much better though, but the purge is hard. I have no irritation or sensitivity so I don't know whether to apply the differin after moisturizer or before after cleansing. What would you recommend? Thank you :)
Another amazing video Olena! Your 3step MM is holy grail and I am happy to hear that it’s possible to use actives after the moisturizing method!❤️❤️
Olivia Lepori this goes for sensitive skin, if your skin is pretty healthy than I’d use them the first way! 😍
Yayyy!! So pumped for this!
H Matson only two more sleeps! 🥳🤗🎉😉
Would love a review of the ordinary products! Favorites or ones you avoid due to the formula!
It largely depends on context anyhow...
Love your video's🙌...very helpful...how do you know what actives you need to use for your skin? I have many issues (melasma, dull,sensitive,acne).where would I begin? 🙏♥️
Thanks! I have a question: if I use Bioderma sérum and Bioderma sebium global, which one do I apply first? ✨
Love her videos/blogs❤️
Thanks so much!
Hey Olena! Awesome video as usual, thank you :) I live in Australia and the sunscreens you reccomended (on your blog, stories and videos) are not available instore or online that ship here. Do you know any well formulated sunscreens accessible here? :)
Hi I live in Australia too, I ordered Bioderma photoderm Ar sunscreen on Olena's recommendation online. There is a website called adore beauty and also one called care to beauty. You can order online
I’m also in Australia 🌞😅! Unfortunately the Bioderma Photoderm AR available in Australia has hydrogenated vegetable oil- which is different to the European formulations! I know Olena doesn’t like oils! I’m still on the hunt for a spf which is 50+ in Aus but I love the Paula’s Choice resist tinted SPF30 - which Olena recommends! It’s awesome 💖🙌
@@emilyboyd9846 Thanks for the reply, I really appreciate it! 💖I am not interested in anything below SPF 50 since i am outside almost all the time. You already know how sunny it gets.🌞😅
Yeah I’m in the same boat- need a higher spf!! There’s some from Paula’s Choice which are 50+ (not tinted) - they appear as spf15 on the Australian website tho but are the same products as the international version! There’s also the Elta MD clear, which is spf46, but is $$$! I’m still looking for a water resistant sunscreen cause I’m in the ocean a lot but haven’t found anything suitable YET!
@@emilyboyd9846 OO interesting! I was curious why I didn't find any SPF 50+ Thank you!
Omg finallyyyyy😫😫
in 14 minutes! :)
Hi olena, i easily to get clogged pores its whitehead and blackead. For ur opinon what's product that can easily to fade them up?
She has plenty of videos but her main advice is that you don't have blackheads or whiteheads. You have pores. But to get rid of this use the Bioderma Sensibio H20 cleanser. The 3 step MM and sunscreen! It will protect ur skin
Could u share the best moisturiser for oily skin based on your experiences ?
great video. i was wondering that. i didnt know the layering products i was applying one day active and the other day moistraziers. i will try this method immediaetly
Hi Olena, in one of your older videos you mentioned Bioderma scrub as a physical exfoliant so in this video's context, should we use that scrub after cleansing and then follow the 3SMM and moisturizing? P.S your content is so unique and I totally admire your individuality and the hardwork you did all these years! Thanks alot ☺
Hi! At which stage do I include chemical exfoliator? After cleansing before using my actives?
Yes
Been watching so many of your videos! Thanks for breaking everything down for us! You're amazing! Would you happen to know of any cruelty free options to use in place of the Bioderma products?
Great video . I wanna know hwo to choose actives based on the skin condition
What do you think about Dr Obagi recommending not to use a moisturizer? Especially for someone like me who lives in an extremely humid climate.
That's the worst advice AND skincare brand....
Can I use an active cleanser like salicylic acid wash and an active ingredient? Or is that a no no. For example the wash and then after a retinol or bha serum
I need to know too
As usual, the best! ❤️
Aina Alisha thank you!! 🥰🎉🤗🙌💖
About the tip for extra-sensitive skin, does that mean that I can use a salicylic acid exfoliant (like the one from PC) after the 3MM? Did I get it right? Thanks for this valuable video Olena!
Kammelya G I wouldn’t with that product, more with stringer actives 💖
This is sooo helpful!! Thank you Olena ❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼
Can't wait 😍😍
YAY! 😍😍
I love your videos!! They helped my skin so much 🥰 thank you!!
I use retinol in my night time skin care routine. I usually integrate it in my moisturizing step by mixing it with my moisturizer, can I still do with the 3 step MM?
Same question. Do you put retinol let it dry then the 3SMM?
Hi Olena thank you for the amazing info as usual!! I was wondering if I can use actives since I been using differin three times a week and trying to keep my normal skincare routine the days that I am not using it I just want to know if I’m doing it correctly thank you again for your videos and the best content ever!! Love you 😘💓
My all time favourite active is AHA. It Really works on my skin. It's all rounded active, it exfoliates dead skin cells, it stimulates collagen production, it somehow hydrates, it prevents acne, and also, it can boost the penetration of the other products that you use. How about you guys? Let me know, perhaps I can taylor them to my skincare routine.
i don't use AHA active ingredient everyday bcs it' would be dry for my skin and even occur breakouts:( fyi, i use sombymi miracle toner, combination aha bha pha enough harsh for me to use daily🙈 but i feel its product makes unclog my pores. Anyway what kind of AHA product do u use?
Ι got my answer! Thanks Olena!
Hi Olena! What’s your take on certain chemical ingredients that some people seem to experience clogging with eg butylene glycol? Should they be avoided for acne prone skin like oils?
Ian J I’ll discuss this in my upcoming course 😙
I have a question, do i apply SPF even if I'm not leaving the house? 🤔
Unless you love in a windowless basement, wearing SPF 365 days a year is vital to having great, healthy skin. ❤️
Hello Olena, in your 3 steps moisture method, do you dry your face at the end of step 3, after applying the cream or do you leave it to air dry?
M A you allow it to dry on its own 💖
I thank God that I found yr channel😍
Such dense information, wow ! Can you make a video about misusing products, like not washing off micellar water and stuff ?
Thank you! :)
OMG u're so beautifulllllll 😍
Olena you are absolutely my lifesaver with skincare! Awesome video. Thank you for clarifying. I wanted to ask you if I can get away with just washing my face at night and using actives and 3StepMM; then applying sunscreen only in the morning without cleansing or anything else?
I don't have enough info on your skin to say if skipping cleansing would be a good idea for your particular case :)
Great video! You can see how much more your wavy your hair is since your 3-Step moisture method video! I was applying actives on damp skin so I will try applying on dry skin now. Any general recommendations on how often higher percentage actives should be used, if at all? I was using one once a week but now trying to do every other week or as I feel my skin needs it.
My hair changes texture depending on how I style it :).
Learnt a lot olena you are amazing
Can u plz review the ordinary prods.?
Search her blog. She's got reviews on a lot of their products!
Hi Olena. Thank you for amazing content. I have a question. Is The Ordinary copper peptide buffet serum an active? Thanks
Yes, it is ❤️
@@OlenaBeley Thank you ❤
Yay this is super helpful thank you Olena! 💕
can we apply like this : actives- hydrators- moisturizer -water spray ?
No😇
@@OlenaBeley thank you🌺🌺
