Thank u I needed this.😭😭
Love your videos valuable information!
🥰
Hi Melissa thank U for sharing.. I Love COSRX 🥰🥰🥰
I love cosrx. I use their snail serum I didn’t know they made this too. I use a 15 % vit c so ot would be great to move up
Yes, I also found out about the serum and retinol a few weeks ago, and the formulation is apparently decent. It feels great on the skin.
Thank you for this information, its helpful, when can i apply retinol, can i apply it after the snail mucin power essence ?
Yes, but avoid using your Retinol and Vitamin C in the same routine.
Owesome review. Thank you so much!!!!!! ❤
🥰
Hi Melissa! I absolutely adore your detailed videos and your knowledge about skincare. As I'm on the way to find my best routine, i need to ask a question. I have a combination skin, and I suffer from hormonal acne (only a few little whiteheads around my menstruation). Niacinamide and exfoliating helped a lot! So I wanted to ask if it's possible to use the CeraVe SA cleanser? And then niacinamide and then from revox Peptides cocktail 10%? I don't have sensitive skin, but I would like to know if that combination is okay 🙂 thanks
Hey!
Thank you for your lovely feedback!🥰
What CeraVe SA cleanser do you use?
If you use CeraVe Renewing/Smoothing SA Cleanser, it shouldn't be a problem, however, your peptide serum should not be combined with Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid) or Exfoliating Acids - with acidic ingredients that are also formulated at a low pH.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial yes, smoothing cleanser with salicylic acid and then I use niacinamide and peptides. And I wonder if it's okay to mix salicylic acid in this cleanser with peptides afterwards?
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial I'm deciding between the SA cleanser or the foaming cleanser from CeraVe. What do you think? Or do you suggest maybe another cleanser, or another active ingrediens for my skin type?
@@ahojtadyadela3683 Yes, you can use CeraVe SA cleanser before applying your Peptide serum.
What's your current AM and PM routine?
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial i was only wondering if this combination will not cause a damage, because they say that you should not mix acids with peptides, but I thought I'd ask, because I think the concentration of salicylic acid in the cleanser is small that it won't cause irritation to my skin. Anyway
AM
1. hydrating cleanser from CeraVe or cleansing oil from Balea (when I'm lazy i skip this time to time 😬)
2. Sometimes I use glycolic acid toner, sometimes I pass on toner
3. Vitamin C from revox
4. Moisturizer with SPF from frudia
1-3x in month I use AHA/BHA peeling or salicylic acid mask from TO
PM
1. Cleanser from CeraVe (I'll buy the SA and the foaming one, will try them both)
2. Niacinamide toner from Revolution
3. Niacinamide serum from revox
4. Peptides cocktail 10% from revox
5. Night cream with snail mucin from skin79
Sometimes I use lactic acid, 1x in month maybe and after that I use only HA with night cream for proper hydration
That routine sound like a mess kinda ☹️
Hello Melissa! I recently discovered you and I would love your advice for my skincare routine 🥺 I don’t have time for a complicated skincare routine so I want to try and keep it simple and efficientl.
So in the morning I use la roche posay cleanser, la roche posay vitamin c serum and cerave moisturiser with 50 spf. During the daytime i use the Isntree Airy Sun Stick.
At night I use la roche posay cleanser, la roche posay hyalu b5 serum and then the niacinamide serum and then the la roche posay toleraine moisturiser.
I honestly see so many conflicting opinions everywhere that I don’t know what is good anymore. Would also appreciate if you would do some videos for simpler skincare routine. For example in the morning I already have to leave the house at 6am for work so I want to know what’s really necessary in the morning and how can i make it up at night if that makes sense..
Thank you so much!
Well, what are you trying to do? Do you have any skin concerns, such as pigmentation, acne, fine lines, or wrinkles that you want to target?
If not, you could simply follow this routine:
In the morning:
Clean your face
Pat dry
Apply sunscreen (if you don't have much sun exposure, you can apply it once properly in the morning and that will last the entire day)
In the evening:
Clean your face
That's it :)
Or use any of the serums you have, such as Hyaluronic acid, Niacinamide, or Vitamin C
But there's no need for anything else. Sunscreen is the most important or, let's say, avoiding the sun whenever you can! :)
After cleanser, what comes first? I have hyaluronic acid intensive cream from cosrx and vit c. Should vit c be applied first then moisturizer?
yes, apply the vitamin c first.
Hi Melissa, i use Clinique Even Better Clinical Radical Dark Spot Corrector + Interrupter, should I use that first then essence?
hmm, they both contain Dimethicone so technically you can apply them in any order, so just test it ;)
Hi, I have the corsx peptide serum. Should I use it before or after snail mucin essence?
You can use them in either order :)
Hi Melissa ❤
Can I use Paul’s choice vitamin c serum first and then sail mucin? Plz reply
Yes
I have dry and mature skin. Should I add moisturizer before or after C vit serum?
Use it after as suggested in the PowerPoint example routines.

I don’t have cosrx essence. Can I use Soon Jung Hydro Barrier Cream before cosrx vitamin c or after?
after
Hi Melissa i use ordinary ascorbyl gucoside solution 12 and cosrx essence which one used first
Yes, that's fine. As demonstrated in the video, use your serum after the essence :)
Hi melissa it is ok vitc mixed with propolis toner cosrx too
Yes :)
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial tq so much 🙌🏻
Your reviews and info's are really helpful.
I have a question,can I use cosrx low ph gd morning gel cleanser and bye bye blackheads in 30 days at the same time? Coz I also have acne pblm😢
Yes you can!
Hi can I just use facial wash then vitamin c when I’m just staying indoors?
Yes you can!
Hi Melissa 😊
Can we use CeraVe resurfacing retinol and renewing retinol together?
Or we use one nite resurfacing
On next night renewing?
They are essentially the same. The main active ingredient is retinol, which does the job, so you should only use one of them. However, if you have both, you can alternate them in your evening skincare routine or finish one and then start using the other.

Hi melissa love your videos....i have a acne skin and i use cosrx face wash and moisturizer in the morning with suncream...and in the night i use cosrax advanced dual essence serum....what i want to know is can i use the cosrax vitamin c in the morning......
Yes you can :)
I have an oily skin, and I want to use this vitamin c 13 cosrx, what products should I start with before applying this vitamin c
@@RukiaVuaiAli Use a gel-to-foam cleanser to wash your face, then pat the skin dry and then apply the Vitamin C serum. If you have a lot of sun exposure, use sunscreen during the daytime. It's fine to use this serum on its own.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial thanks, can I use tea tree toner and then apple vitamin c 13 cosrx
@@RukiaVuaiAli Yes.
Hello Melissa,
Do you think the HaruHaru Black Rice Toner would pair well with this routine? Specifically with the Vitamin C? As well as the Skin1004 foaming cleanser at night since the Ph is for the mornings?
Yes, that's fine and can work! :)
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial thank you thank you!😊 do you think the vitamin c would have a negative reaction when paired with the 1004 ampoule? I’m looking to try new products
Also, any recommendations on an eye cream for dark circles 🫣🫣
@@Iguessimhere2 No, you can use them together.
If your dark circles are caused by hollowness or inherited traits, there isn't much you can do topically other than using concealer. If that's not the case, factors like lack of sleep, stress, dehydration, or your diet (such as being intolerant to something) may also cause this. Therefore, I recommend looking into these factors and changing them. :)
Help me
I have combinations skin , Whitehead, blackhead, open pores and uneven skin tone...
Which product shall i go for ?
Iam using klairs oil cleanser and cosrx gentle cleanser,
The ordinary Niacinamide,
Ponds gel moisturizer,
Dr.Sheth sunscreen
I suggest using Differin gel for your skin. (ua-cam.com/video/2cw_5gJ-_TM/v-deo.html)
Additionally, for your blackheads, consider using a blackhead extraction tool. Start by taking a warm shower, then gently use the tool to extract the blackheads after you're done. If you're unsure about how to do this or you feel uncomfortable doing it yourself, visiting an esthetician could be a great alternative. This is the easiest and fastest way to get rid of blackheads.
Can you suggest me am and pm routines
It is in the video I linked above.
Hi there! What’s the best skincare brand out there? Tell me something organic and less toxic? Also is cetaphil better than cerave?
There is no such thing as the 'best' skincare brand. There are only different brands with various ranges, and some may have treatments more suitable for your specific needs. Note that 'organic' does not necessarily mean 'less toxic,' and the same is true for chemicals. Often, chemical skincare formulations are the ones that are more tolerable on your skin. Both Cetaphil and CeraVe are excellent brands, and the one you're considering, COSRX, is also fantastic.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial True that. Thanks hon!
Pls share your daily skin regime with us
@@emanaziz8315 My daily skin regimen is what I showcase on my UA-cam channel. Since I create content nearly every day, I don't follow a specific routine other than what I share on my channel. So, that is also what I am currently using. :)
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial oh aight. Is it ok to change skin products frequently?
@@emanaziz8315 Well, yes, you don't actually need to do that. I showcase products and create example skincare routines to follow. However, this also makes it challenging for me to stick to a specific routine. In general, you should select the right products that suit your needs and then diligently follow the routine to achieve excellent results.
I have 2 questions, why can't we apply products on our eyelids? I dont imagine something like snail mucin will irritate eye lids but i could be wrong..I'd like that area to benefit from Anti ageing benefits too..
Can we apply moisturiser after Vitamin C before sunscreen during the day?
Applying snail mucin to the eyelids is not recommended because the skin there is very thin and sensitive, making it more susceptible to irritation and allergic reactions. Additionally, if the product accidentally enters your eyes, it can cause redness, stinging, and discomfort. This can lead to long-term eye damage, especially when used chronically, as is common with these skincare products.
Regarding your skincare routine, yes, you can apply moisturizer after vitamin C and before sunscreen. However, it's uncertain if this step is truly necessary. It may feel uncomfortable and offer little to no benefit.
Hello Melissa !
What vitamin c do you recommend??
This one isn't too bad, but the texture is not the best I have come across. G&G C-Glow is still my "favorite", but unfortunately, it's not available in many countries or the shipping is often expensive. It's a bit disappointing. 😞
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial thanks for the reply !
What about naturium vitamin c complex serum?
@@MrWhite0303 I haven't tried that specific product, so I can't offer any feedback on its performance. However, judging by the ingredients, it doesn't appear to be bad. Although there has been controversy surrounding that brand, their formulations seem to be decent upon closer inspection. Once the product becomes available in my region, I might consider giving it a try. If you decide to purchase it, please do let me know how it performs. I'm curious to hear about your experience with it!
In my routine i have ordinary hydraulic acid , cosrz essential , cream and vitamin c , cetaphil moisturizer and then sunscreen
How to order this , I am confused
Help me please!
See here: ua-cam.com/video/nTg8hrEQIvM/v-deo.htmlsi=Zg4-1CWaSSHL8RDU or here ua-cam.com/video/ADWu7oSBLFc/v-deo.htmlsi=WU63g6VWsI3hwbiE
You only need one hydrating product (HA serum or Snail Essence) and just one moisturizer.
Does snail essence good for dry skin
yes
hi,Melissa. As I have introduced retinol and glycolic acid serums into my skincare routine, I apply them at night on alternate nights. Now I use my vitamin C serum in the morning before sunscreen. But most of the time, I'm in the sun, so will it work? I know vitamin C is very sensitive to the sun, but when we apply it to our face, will it oxidize the same way as it does in the bottle with an open cap?"
Are you using the vitamin C serum featured in the video? If so, it's not the best formulation to use in the morning. However, if you wait a few minutes before applying your sunscreen, it should be fine. My primary concern is whether it fully absorbs into the skin. If it doesn't and remains on the surface, it might oxidize. So, if you use many other products or have one that tends to remain on the skin's surface, it's best to apply the serum in the evening before bed. Alternatively, consider using a watery formulation that absorbs immediately into the skin.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial no i use another vitamin c serum which is sodium ascorbyl phosphate...so it should be given some time to absorbed into the skin. Thank you
@@abrarahmad9682 what is the name of the product? 🤔
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial derma.e.vitamin c conentrated serum..it says sodium ascorbyl phosphate..its ingredient list is very long but i dont know other stuff😨
@@abrarahmad9682 I checked and that one shouldn't be an issue :)
Shall I skip using moisturizer after vitamin c serum ??
As mentioned in the video, it's optional.
Hi dear Melissa !
my skin is normal but sensitive, can i use this routine :
- Cetaphil cleanser
- Advanced clinicals Vitamine c
- Snail mucin 96 cosrx
- Eye cream cosrx
- Snail cream 92 cosrx -Sunscreen(vitamine E cosrx)
Is the order correct and do the products benefit my skin plz?
Hey! 😊
Yes, however, I would suggest using the essence before applying your Vitamin C Serum, as demonstrated in the video.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficialThank you so much Dear Melissa.❤😊 You are the best.
Can i use it in the morning and evening ? Or should i just use it once a day ?
It's potent, so I suggest starting with one application daily, or maybe even every other day, and then see how well you tolerate it before increasing.
Does the snail essence mucin go before the vitamin c serum?
Or is it vitamin c before snail essence mucin?
Have you watched the video?😉
I did but isn't the rule thinnest to thickest?
@@SashaMuahh What Vitamin C serum do you use?
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial i use the cosrx one
@@SashaMuahh It contains Squalane and oils, which is why you should use it after the Essence.
Hello Melissa :) I've recently seen your video on the AHA BHA PHA 30 days miracle toner, but I have to ask if you think my skincare routine needs anything included or excluded, I am a 13 year old with combination skin, and I've been struggling with blackheads a lot, I've tried the ordinary salicylic acid but it doesn't seem to do anything. Here's my routine so far:
•Neutrogena hydro boost cleansing gel
•aha bha pha miracle toner
•skin aesthetics facial serum with hyaluronic & collagen
•sometimes I use cetaphil healing ointment for dry spots around my eyes
thank you for your help so far :) 💕
Hello Angie,
Is that the only concern you have? It may be due to hormonal changes in your body. The best thing you can do is extract them with a tool, or better yet, visit an esthetician who can do it for you. You may need to do this periodically as they are likely to come back. There is no need to use any other products, so you can save that money and time.
What I would recommend is using the cleanser you have during the daytime and avoiding unprotected sun exposure. When you do have prolonged sun exposure, use a good sunscreen, ideally a mineral-based one (for example, Good Molecules Mineral SPF), as this will help keep your skin youthful for as long as possible. :)
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial Hello ! thank you for responding 🐧
the hormonal changes is kind of what I thought too, especially since they've never gone away since the first time I've had them.
As for other skin concerns, it's mostly just un even skin texture, hyperpigmentation, and pimples from time to time. None of theses are really any big concerns though, and I think the pimples are also hormonal.
I've been kind of worrisome about extract tools but I honestly think they might work especially since it's been tough trying to get the out. Also, thank you for the spf recommendation! :) I've been trying to look for some lately but there's a lot of options and I didn't know which one .
Thank you for all your help Melissa ! :)
@@angiegallardo7762 How often were you using The Ordinary Salicylic Acid? Has it helped you with your pimples?
Yes, I think that using such a tool is the best option for your blackheads!
Happy to help! :)
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial I was using the ordinary salicylic acid maybe every 1 - 2 nights, and it has somewhat helped with my pimples, all I noticed when using I was it on my pimples and blackheads is that they would calm down a bit, but they were still there. 🐧
Ok, in that case, you can keep using The Ordinary Salicylic Acid Serum (when not using your exfoliating acid toner) to maintain a more balanced skin appearance :)
Is it okay to use snail cream before apply the SPF??
Yes, it's important to allow a minute or so for the snail cream to properly absorb into the skin before applying the sunscreen. This will ensure optimal effectiveness of both products.
Thank you soo much Melissa!❤
Cani i mix cosrc vitamin c 13. And ordinary Niacinamide?
No, use them in separate routines.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial can u suggest me which toner and moisturiser will be great for hyperpigmentation+acne spots (i m using this cosrx 13 per vitamin c serum at night)
Skin type:Combination skin +dry patches
You may want to add an exfoliating acid toner to your routine (do not use it in the same routine as your Vitamin C), and/or Alpha Arbutin Serum. As for a moisturizer, I really like COSRX Hyaluronic Acid Cream-use it only on the drier parts of your face.
My vitamin C contains thd ascorbate
Which one i use first?
What is the name of your Vitamin C serum, and with which other products do you intend to use it?
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial bio beauty lab potent C power serum
i intend to use it with snail mucin cosrx
@@gabrielrich605 use it after snail mucin.
I don't need moisturizer?
no
Is it safe to use these products step by step i want to know your opinion
Step by step is it safe to use please tell :)
manyo oil cleansing+ cosrx cleanser+numbuzin toner 3+cosrx snail essence+cosrx vitamin c 23 serum+ moisturizer
Yes :)
Hello, can I use a moisturizer after vitamin C then followed by a sunscreen? Or is it just optional?
Yes, that's fine. However, using a moisturizer in the AM isn't always necessary as it depends on your skin type and the type of sunscreen you're using. If your skin feels great without a moisturizer, it's fine not to use one.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Some dermatologist say you can put snail essence around eyes, do you agree with that? I am confused as I am reading and listening more from so called dermatologist I hear so many different opinions on the same products which I believe make a lot of people confused…
I'm skeptical of so-called dermatologists online, as I am not aware of any who do this purely to help people, rather than to sell skincare products-which are not as regulated as medical treatments. Moreover, these products have never been tested on sensitive areas, so we can only speculate about their effects, especially if they get into the eyes, etc. Given the lack of research, I would advise extreme caution, especially if you plan on using them for extended periods.
Can i use my face sunscreen on my lips
Generally, that is not recommended because the skin on your lips is thinner and more delicate than the skin on the rest of your face. I suggest using a lip-specific sunscreen.
Ok thanks ❤
I want help pls 🥺❤️ I've red and brown pigmentation on my face, the red spots are not sensitive now it's just stubborn red pigmentation, i want to know if my routine is right. I've a moisturizer, sunscreen, salicylic cleaner, niacinamide serum, and the Ordinary serum with alpha-Arbitone with Vitamin C 8%. Will this routine help?
Overall, these red or brownish spots will heal on their own over time. But yes, you are using the correct products that should help to speed up the healing process and address your concerns.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial Thx 😊 made me comfortable. I was afraid because these pigmentations have been present since last year and I started the routine two months ago but there is no visible improvement, but I’ll be patient
Were the spots caused by breakouts? Because some spots can take months or even years to heal. However, if you do not see any noticeable improvements within a few months, it's probably best to visit a doctor and ask for more advice, especially if it is really bothering you.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial These red pigmentations are caused by acritin. The doctor prescribed it to me and it caused me an allergy and it resulted in these red spots. I also tried a drug called Skinoren that contains 20% Azelec and it causes me an allergy. To be honest, I am reluctant and afraid to go to another doctor because they always prescribe the same thing to me.
If you are experiencing red pigmentation after using tretinoin, it may indicate an adverse reaction. In such cases, discontinuing use of the medication is often the recommended solution. However, your doctor may prescribe azelaic acid as an alternative, which is generally better tolerated. Still, if you find that you are unable to tolerate azelaic acid as well, you should inform him. Also the red pigmentation caused by tretinoin will usually fade over time after discontinuing use of the medication.
Hi I heavent started this skincare route on but I want and I’m not sure if these products will work together so do you mind helping me so I made a morning and a night routine and here they are:
So for morning I did : cosrx salicylic acid daily gentle cleanser, Cosrx toner, Cosrx snail essence, beauty of joseon glow serum, axis - Y dark spot correcting glow serum , the Cosrx all in one cream and sun screen
And this is for my night routine: beauty of joseon Ginseng cleansing oil and then the cosrx salicylic acid daily gentle cleanser, I’m from rice toner, Cosrx vitamin c 23 serum, Cosrx snail essence, Axis - Y dark spot correcting glow serum, and the Cosrx all in one cream.
Should I exclude some stuff from either routine again I haven’t started this I ordered the products and they arrived today and I don’t wanna break out so I wanna know what works together and what doesn’t I also have dark spots and uneven skin tone and oily skin.
To not overwhelm the skin and to ensure proper layering, I would suggest the following order:
Morning Routine:
Cosrx Salicylic Acid Daily Gentle Cleanser
Cosrx Toner or Cosrx Snail Essence
Beauty of Joseon Glow Serum or Axis-Y Dark Spot Correcting Glow Serum
Sunscreen
Night Routine:
Beauty of Joseon Ginseng Cleansing Oil
Cosrx Salicylic Acid Daily Gentle Cleanser
I'm From Rice Toner
Cosrx Vitamin C 23 Serum
Optionally, the Cosrx All in One Cream.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial thank you for much for this it helped a lot but I have a question for the morning routine if I don’t use the beauty of joseon glow serum could I use like miday or should I switch from dark spot serum to beauty of joseon and for the toner and essence would using them both be too much or should I do like the dark spot serum and beauty of joseon and use one item one and then the other one the next?
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial I also did some research and it said that the Cosrx AHA and BHA do not work well together so should I use the im from rice toner instead or the haruharu wonder which I was planning on substituting for the toner instead or should I just use the essence?
Do you mean AHA + BHA with Vitamin C? If you have sensitive skin, it may be advisable to use them at different times, as it could be too acidic. However, since you're also using hydrating products in the same routine, it shouldn't pose an issue. You can adjust it to fit your needs.
Overall, try not to use too many products in one routine as it can result in uncomfortable layering and improper absorption. In my experience, a routine with one toner or essence, one serum, and sunscreen in the morning works best, especially when planning to be active. In the evening, you could follow the same routine but replace the sunscreen with a moisturizer if desired.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial I’m in the sun a lot so I think I will keep the sunscreen in but thank you for the feedback I will try not to do too much products at once and I will try to switch the products around
Hi can I use this with the beauty of joseon glow serum ?
yes
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial thank you so much… do I use Cosrx vitamin c and then glow serum and then Cosrx essence?
Use the Glow Serum first.
