Melissa, I truly appreciate your in-depth videos on how and what to apply with the ordinary products. Your videos have been so helpful to me. Thank you and blessings
@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet I have a broken capillary r spider vein I don't know about it on my face, so can you do it with a ordinary aha BHA peeling use my face ?
@@Basit759 I think it's best to see a dermatologist for your broken capillaries. Still, don't forget to use sunscreen throughout the day to make it worse.
Plz make a complete video about applying scrubs 'masks the day after applying ordinary peeling solution... Or how long after we can go for facial like scrub and masks after peeling solution .. Thanks 😊
Hmm, I wouldn't use it the day after. But instead, wait for a couple of days since the skin is very sensitive the day after. I will think about it and see if I can do a video about it. I took a note :) Thanks
Thank you for this video Melissa.I love The Ordinary peeling solution.I made a review on it and everyone loves it.It really helped in clearing out my skin
Thank you for this video! Everyone talks about how to use the Peeling Solution but few advise what products to pair it with afterwards. Using the product for the 1st time tonight and applying rose hip oil right after...hope to get it right!!! 😀
Hello 😀Hm 🤔 I am not sure what you mean but here you can see the whole process: How To Use The Ordinary AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution | Full & In-Depth Demonstration: ua-cam.com/video/wSY0pYcy8KY/v-deo.html
u could do it at night and then rinse your face with water , moisturizer then when u wake up wash ur face with cleanser normally and do ur skincare routine
You don't wash you face all over again use your cleanser, toner(optional), peeling solution, and moisturizer. You don't re wash after you use this product
The Ordinary does not recommend using Vitamin C and Niacinamide in the same routine. So you can use your Vitamin C in the AM and Niacinamide in the PM (also after the Peeling Solution) :)
Hi Melissa! Can I use retinol in the same routine after i used the peel? Or should I not do both in the same day? For example: 1. Wash face 2. Peeling Mask 3. Hyaluronic Acid 4. Retinol 5. Niacimide 6. Moisturizer. I’m pretty new to skincare so I want to make sure I’m doing things right! Thank you!
@Mónica Mancía PM: (Once a week) 1. Wash face 2. Peeling Mask 3. Hyaluronic Acid (Water-Based Serum) 4. Niacinamide (Water-Based Serum) 5. Retinol (Anhydrous solution or emulsion) 6. Moisturizer (Cream) But since you are pretty new to skincare, I recommend not using them all at once, and it can be quite overwhelming for the skin. Also, have a look at these videos: How To Use The Ordinary Granactive Retinoid 2% in Emulsion | Full Demonstration: ua-cam.com/video/kDGExkptI1c/v-deo.html How To Use The Ordinary AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution | Full & In-Depth Demonstration: ua-cam.com/video/wSY0pYcy8KY/v-deo.html The general rule of thumb for order of application is: 1. Water-based serums 2. Anhydrous Solutions and Oil Formulations 3. Creams & suspensions Important: If you have more than one water-based serum, you can apply based on the priority of your concern (the product that targets the most important concern should go first). And it’s recommended applying eye-serums (such as Caffeine Solution 5% + EGCG) first after cleansing. And a maximum of three serum formulations in a single regimen. Always apply sunscreen when you are exposed to the sun!!
Would you please answer my two questions since you're an expert at this. Can I use whitening serum one day after using the ordinary peeling solution? And I'm using an at home ipl hair removal device What's the safe time length to keep between the ordinary peeling solution and the at home ipl hair removal device PLEASE ANSWER.
It is not recommended to use a whitening serum one day after using The Ordinary Peeling Solution. This is because the peeling solution can cause skin sensitivity and irritation, and using a whitening serum may further irritate the skin. Regarding the use of an at-home IPL hair removal device after using The Ordinary Peeling Solution, it is best to wait at least a week before using the device. This is because the peeling solution can cause the skin to become more sensitive and using an IPL device too soon after can increase the risk of skin irritation, redness, or burning.
This is really helpful, thank you so much. I usually follow with micellar water, then niacinamide +zinc serum and a light moisturiser. I think I will now incorporate maybe some Argan oil, possibly some coconut oil? And ditching the micellar as its feels to drying. I did a thin AHA/BHA masque for the first time in a couple of months today, my skin feels much sorer than usual (which is expected, I guess as the peeling process has started). I'm concerned that the niacinamide+zinc is interacting?
Hey :) Thank you! You could add a toner to your routine as well such as the Paula's Choice Enriched Calming Toner (that's one I like a lot!) Or as you've mentioned, add an oil and skip the Micellar Water :) The oil you choose depends on your preference! I don't like heavy oils, and out of all the Ordinary oils I love the B-Oil the most and like to mix it with my moisturizer :) Did it burn or sting while you were using the mask? Niacinamide and AHA or BHA exfoliating acids can be used in the same routine without a problem :) Hope this helps :)
I love using Rose hip oil immediately after I do The Ordinary peel. It feels nourishing to my skin. I have Oily skin , otherwise normal, not sensitive ot acne prone.
I did mention the moisturiser at the beginning of the video😅 It's the Natural Moisturizing Factors + HA. Well you get normal moisturisers without SPF, then you would need to use a separate sunscreen on top of your moisturiser or you get a moisturiser that has already SPF in it, then it is like a 2 in 1 😊
You should use the Peeling Solution in the evening, and yes, apply sunscreen the next morning if you plan to have significant sun exposure. However, it’s not necessary if you’re staying mostly indoors.
After removing facial hair by flawless hair removal tool, in how many days should we use this peeling solution .. Please ma'am I need your valuable guidance.
Thanku v much you replied Soo quick ... Actually I did scrub v next day and my skin gets red .... I think I will do scrub after 3 days of peeling or I don't need scrub?? One thing more plz tell me can I use masks second or third day of peeling thanku
@@jazilakram6226 If that was the case, it's best to wait 2-3 days in between before using your scrub. What kind of masks do you use? If those are just hydrating masks, you can use them the next day after the peeling solution. That's fine.
Personally, I would use it on the days/evening when not using any makeup. Unfortunately, I do not have a correct answer for this, but probably 15-30 minutes so that the skin can adjust the pH again.
hi melissa. it's commendable that you respond to all the comments. tbh, i only ever used lotion on my face and body, and im new to all these skin care supplies. i've been watching all these yt videos the past couple of weeks and have ordered a few of the supplies. im confused about when (morning or night or certain days a week) and in what order i should apply all the serums/oils that i have (or maybe i shouldn't apply some?) -- there's so much and different info out there, making it confusing. can you please help me? I have vitamin c serum, retinol serum, hyaluronic acid serum, ordinary aha 30% + bha 2% peeling solution, argon oil, jojoba oil, vitamin c oil. im also thinking about purchasing either glycolic acid or salicylic acid -- which one would you recommend? i would really appreciate your feedback. thank you.
Hey😊 Well, what is your skin type and what are your skin concerns? Also, can you list the products by name and from what brand so that I can look them up and help you to set up a routine😅
@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet hey, thanks for replying! my skin is on the dry side if i don't apply any moisturizer. i have a few old acne scares. i get a pimple here and there once in a while, but nothing major. i would like to minimize my pores. the vitamin c serum, retinol serum, hyaluronic acid serum are from tree of life (on amazon). the organic argon oil and organic jojoba oil is from cliganic. and the vitamin e oil is from bos essentials. and the ordinary aha 30% + bha 2% peeling solution. so far, i've used the ordinary peel once. and i use the oils to moisturize my face and body. i have yet to use any of the tree of life serums. also, my mom has hyper-pigmentation on her forehead and cheeks -- is there an acid or product that you recommend for that?
@@nkaur5706 Hey😊 I had a look at your serums of tree of life and the good thing is they include Vitamin C derivatives which means that you can add the Ordinary Niacinamide Serum into your routine which targets large pores. If you prefer to use the Ordinary Niacinamide - that one can not be used with any form of Vitamin C (based on the conflict chart from the Ordinary) therefore I recommend the serum. So, the general rule of application is this: - Cleanser - Toner - Exfoliator - Serum - Oil - Moisturiser - SPF This is from the Ordinary: The general rule of thumb for order of application is: 1. Water-based serums 2. Anhydrous Solutions and Oil Formulations 3. Lotions & Creams & suspensions Important: If you have more than one water-based serum, you can apply based on the priority of your concern (the product that targets the most important concern should go first). It’s recommended using no more than 3 serum formulations in a single routine for optimal skin penetration. About 2-3 drops of each serum and 1 pea-sized amount of creams should be enough for the full face and neck. Use a "patting" application method, as opposed to "rubbing." Always apply sunscreen when you are exposed to the sun!! AM Routine: - Cleanse - Niacinamide - Vitamin C - (Optional) Oil - (Optional) Moisturiser PM Routine: - Cleanse - (Optional) Glycolic Or Lactic Acid - Hyaluronic Acid - Retinol - (Optional) Oil - (Optional) Moisturiser Or PM Routine: - Cleanse - Hyaluronic Acid - Retinol - (Optional) Mandelic Acid - (Optional) Oil - (Optional) Moisturiser PM 2 Routine (1-2 times per week): - Cleanse - Peeling Solution - Hyaluronic Acid - (Optional) Oil - (Optional) Moisturiser What oil you want to use it up to you! See what feels the best! I always write it as optional since this is personal preference and you have to try it😅 If you don’t like the oils, try it without it or replace it with a moisturizer…this is something you’ll notice while applying the products😊 You can choose between Glycolic Acid, Lactic Acid and Mandelic Acid - they are all great - personally since I have a bit of a drier skin myself - I like Mandelic Acid a lot! Now when using Glycolic Acid or Lactic Acid - those are water-based products which you apply after cleansing (or toning if you use one) but before the other serums. However, if you want to get Mandelic Acid - this is an anhydrous solution which you are going to use after your water-based products but before the oils! When using the Peeling solution please do not use Glycolic Acid, Lactic Acid or Mandelic Acid that evening… Also for your acne scars/spots that are darker - I recommend Alpha Arbutin😊 Hope this helps! What kind of pigmentation does your mum have? Like an uneven tone or spots?
@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet OMG are you in real lady....? I've never seen anyone before replying in such detail ... You are someone who is soooo rare and beautiful inside out... Blessings 💞 Impressed and subscribing your YT channel...
the video was so straight forward and informative. i have oily and break out prone skin. My biggest concerns about my skin is my pores, blackheads and little bumps and some dark acne scars. I just decide to change my skin care routine and have constant one so i purchased the ordinary 30% aha solution as my first chemical exfoliation product. I currently use boscia detoxifying black cleanser. I also bought iunik tea tree relief serum and iunik centella calming gel cream as a moisturizer. I bought la roche posay anthelios spf 50+ dry touch anti shine sunscreen. So my question is that is it fine to apply iunik tea tree relief serum and then the iunik centella calming gel cream after this peeling solution? The serum includes tea tree oil, centella asiatica leaf water, 2% niacinamide. I heard that sometimes acids and niacinamide can react with each other. And is there any product you suggested for my routine such as toner, any other cleanser, mask, ingredient, or treatment products that can help with my skin?
Hey :) Thank you! :) I recommend only adding your moisturiser after the Peeling Solution because Tea Tree can be drying and it may be a bit irritating when using it after such a strong exfoliating acid mask. To answer your question about Niacinamide and exfoliating acids, have a look at this video here: Can I use Niacinamide with AHA or BHA (Glycolic Acid, Lactic Acid, Mandelic Acid, Salicylic Acid): ua-cam.com/video/Pw1iWF_Hdnk/v-deo.html Also, have a look at those videos: How To Use The Ordinary AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution | Full & In-Depth Demonstration: ua-cam.com/video/wSY0pYcy8KY/v-deo.html Skin Care Routine Order Morning and Night: ua-cam.com/video/SZr-0xZq6UE/v-deo.html My husband has oily skin and he enjoys the combination of using Paula's Choice Vitamin C Serum and Azelaic Acid Booster. This combination keeps the oily at bay and even's out his skin tone. So, you could use your Serum and Moisturiser + SPF in the AM and Paula's Choice Vitamin C Serum and Azelaic Acid Booster in the PM. Also, when using the Peeling Solution, just follow with your moisturiser. If you have oily skin, using a moisturiser is not necessary, try skipping it as well so that you can see what works the best for you! :)
There is not a "best cream" since it depends on your skin type. You need to use one that is suitable for it. CeraVe Ultra Light Pm Lotion works well on all skin types.
Please do not do that. The peeling solution is a powerful peel that should be used cautiously. Combining them can lead to severe irritation. You can follow this guide: How To Use The Ordinary AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution | Full & In-Depth Demonstration: ua-cam.com/video/wSY0pYcy8KY/v-deo.html
You may not need it at all when using the peel. And from my experience, it is best to give it a couple of days, but it is individual, so test it but don't overdo it ;)
Hello Melissa! Can you use toner before the peeling solution?. I was also wondering if i could use only the 100% plant-Derived Squalane after the peeling solution or the Squalane with the Cerave facial moisturizer with Nothing more added after. I know that you should use sunscreen after But i live in Sweden and its winter, is it compulsory to add sunscreen?. I am Really scared using this product. Sorry for My bad english and i Would be Happy if you replied.
Hm, I was thinking about this recently. Technically it would help if you used the toner (hydrating and soothing toner) after the peel. But it can make sense to add it before as well to replenish the skin. However I never do that, so therefore I recommend using it after. Just be careful not to confuse it with an exfoliator ( ua-cam.com/video/EWU7vvGM9EM/v-deo.html) Yes, you should add hydration. I am not sure if the Squalane would be enough, so it may be best to combine it with your moisturizer. But ultimately, you need to test it to see how it feels on your skin. There is no need to be scared. You can watch the following video if you like(it contains a lot of information) : How to Apply The Ordinary 30% AHA + 2% BHA Peeling Solution: ua-cam.com/video/alyaPIaMLs4/v-deo.html I recently wanted to move to Sweden since your government has such a relaxed approach to the current situation. I like that. Anyway, I hope that this helps. 🙂
Well, you can do that. However, I would suggest using the Vitamin C serum only when not applying the peel. Otherwise, depending on the specific Vitamin C serum you use, you might still experience sensitivities leading to irritation.
hi can I use the niacinamide serum straight away after the peel or do I have to wait for 1-2 minutes? and after the serum can I use my moisturiser? ps this is totally unrelated but do u think the simple micellar facial wash is strong enough to remove sunscreen with spf 50? Thanks!
Hello 😀 No, you can apply it right away: How To Use The Ordinary Peeling Solution With Niacinamide | Full Demonstration: ua-cam.com/video/JNl2F18t4MM/v-deo.html I haven't tried the Simple Micellar Facial Wash, so I don't know 😞 It's best to look for another UA-camr or reviews from people that actually tried the product :)
Yes, see here: How to Apply The Ordinary 30% AHA + 2% BHA Peeling Solution with Niacinamide and Alpha Arbutin: ua-cam.com/video/alyaPIaMLs4/v-deo.html The Ordinary Exfoliating Acids: ua-cam.com/video/-nnhqW4JH6Q/v-deo.html
Yes you can use it every other night. However, how often you should exfoliate depends on your skin type and skin concerns. Some people do well exfoliating with AHA or BHA twice a day, whereas others find that once a day or every other day is a perfect balance. Test to see what works best for your skin.

Always apply sunscreen when you are exposed to the sun!! Some products can have a foaming effect upon application depending on the other products you are using in your regimen. The foaming should not last longer than a few seconds and both should not remain sticky once absorbed into the skin. (Video: ua-cam.com/video/r04W7rQV1R0/v-deo.html) "Pilling" (snakeskin, shedding) can occur due to too much product. Your skin can only absorb a certain amount of product, and any excess will be left on top of the skin so that when the next product is being applied, it rubs off. (Video: ua-cam.com/video/l_C7HtO826A/v-deo.html) If you wish to incorporate multiple Vitamin C's, Retinoids, and/or Direct Acids into your skincare regimen, it's suggested using them on alternate evenings and waiting until your skin has adjusted to one before introducing another.

If you have really sensitive skin, the peeling solution may not be the product for you as it can sting/burn on the skin. You may want to use a Salicylic Acid leave-on exfoliant or Mandelic Acid instead, depending on your skin concerns.
Yes you can use it after. How to Apply The Ordinary 30% AHA + 2% BHA Peeling Solution with Niacinamide and Alpha Arbutin: ua-cam.com/video/alyaPIaMLs4/v-deo.html

Hi!! Thanks for the videos, quick question...can I apply makeup after doing this? Or should I wait for a couple of days? Is my first time using this product.
Well, you should use the Peeling Solution in the evening so, you can apply makeup the next day/morning. However, if you are using the Peeling Solution in the evening, before going out, like join a Party or so, yes you can use makeup after that.

Since when are you using those products? And how are they working for you so far? After you're done with your current routine, how does your skin feel? Hydrated or still dry? Do you have sensitive skin? And do you suffer from Rosacea? Also, since when do you experience red skin?
Melissa Van Dijk I’ve been using for a couple weeks - really enjoying it so far, my skin texture is feeling much better but still has a long way to go. I’m not diagnosed with rosacea but have very red cheeks that I think it’s definitely a possibility! My skin feels hydrated after using these products but not greasy or oily at all - could still be more hydrated! I thought I had fairly sensitive skin but haven’t had any issues with the new routine so far, I’ve just always tended to go for more basic products. My main goals are to reduce redness and to get smoother skin - my face is fairly rough/bumpy and it really gets me down how it shows under foundation. Thanks for your reply!
@@sarahglass3344 Well, your skincare routine looks so far good. However, I recommend stop using the Peeling Solution, and I do not recommend using Glycolic Acid or any other type of AHA since this can make the skin-redness worse...which we don't want! Still, you can try Azelaic Acid for sure! Either the one from the Ordinary or Paula's Choice (the texture is different!). For your redness, you may want to try Antioxidants like EUK 134 from the Ordinary since it mentions that it targets redness. Why do you want to try out Alpha Arbutin? For what concerns?😊
@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet Thanks for your response and advice! Will avoid the Glycolic acid - was worried about it but the skin texture/pore benefits appealed to me. Will also look into EUK 134 - Thanks! I wanted to try to Alpha Arbutin after seeing multiple people on youtube saying they've used it to help clear redness (i.e. ua-cam.com/video/KUAJS1UHYR4/v-deo.html&ab_channel=GeorgePopovic). Along with hopefully evening out skin texture.
Hi 😊 Greetings from Malaysia! I love your videos and you're really awesome 🌻 I've a question. I'm 22 and I've oily skin, acne scars, PIH with few acne. I've been using neutrogena foam cleanser, neutrogena alcohol free toner, The Ordinary niacinamide and neutrogena hydro boost moisturiser. After watching your videos, I'm planning to buy The ordinary retinoid emulsion, aha bha peeling solution and glycolic acid. Is there anything that you could suggest me on the products that I'm planning to purchase or the ones that I'm currently using? I'll really appreciate it if you help me on this and thank you so much in advance! 😊 And also could you please suggest me a good sunscreen preferably from drugstore? Thanks again ☺️ @melissavandijk
Hello 😀 from Austria 🇦🇹 Well, I have had a bad experience with the Hydro Boost line, except the cleanser, but I haven’t used it regularly. Based on your concerns, an example routine could look like this: AM Cleanser Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% (Moisturizer if needed) SPF PM (best option but the main product is not available) Cleanser Salicylic Acid 2% Solution (currently not available) Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% 100% Plant-Derived Squalane PM1 (5 times a week) Cleanser Glycolic Acid 7% Granactive Retinoid Emulsion 2% Borage Seed Oil PM2 (2times a week, for example, Monday and Thursday): AHA 30% + BHA 2% Borage Seed oil or 100% Plant-Derived Squalane Drugstore Sunscreen 🤔 I don't know sorry😞 I haven't tried many, and I am sticking with La Roche Posay Anthelios, it works great for me. More information from my smart books 😀: Overview of Acne: imgur.com/1iEB7Iy Retinol, Retinyl Esters, and Retinoic Acid: imgur.com/a/muJgmAO Salicylic Acid: imgur.com/a/ZxHziDp Benzoyl Peroxide:imgur.com/dcNCLFz
@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet Hey😊 Thank you so much for your time. I really appreciate it 😁 Oh.. I've been using the hydro boost line for the past few months and it works pretty good for me. So for AM, it's not necessary to use toner is it? If the salicylic acid is available, can i follow like this? 👇 PM1: cleanser Salicylic acid Niacinamide 100% plant-derived squalane PM2: Cleanser AHA BHA 100% plant-derived squalane It is not compulsory to wear moisturiser is it? So, i don't have to purchase glycolic acid and granactive retinoid emulsion right? But i heard granactive retinoid emulsion and glycolic acid are very effective for acne scars. Thank you so much! 🌻 Lots of love ❤️
Using a toner is optional! You can get for example a BHA (Salicylic Acid) exfoliating solution from Paula's Choice which I personally like a lot! It's the blue one from the clear line, but apparently the black one is great too!😊 Only use a moisturiser if you feel the need! Yes, this is a great combination, have a look at this routine: ua-cam.com/video/geF4SbZYuCw/v-deo.html
Yes, you can apply them. How To Use The Ordinary Peeling Solution With Niacinamide | Full Demonstration: ua-cam.com/video/JNl2F18t4MM/v-deo.html Edit, do not apply the lactic acid. Since AHA is Glycolic Acid, Lactic Acid, etc. www.paulaschoice.de/en/all-about-exfoliants
Hello Melissa, Could I use the ordinary alpha arbutin + HA serum after AHA BHA peel in the same routine? How long should I wait before using retinoids or ascorbic acid on my skin?
Yes, you can use them, but it depends on your skin's tolerance and the potency of the retinoid or ascorbic acid you're using. If they are of lower strength, it might be safe to use them the next day. However, if you're using a high-strength product, it's advisable to wait at least a day or two in between applications.
Hii, Melissa! i also need your help😊 so, I'm a bit confused should i use my toner ( aha, bha, pha 30 days miracle toner from some by mi) before or after this exfoliator or should i skip this step at all?
Hello Nora, The product you have is also an exfoliating acid toner, so it shouldn't be used in the same routine as the peeling solution. After the peel, you should only use hydrating toners that add moisture without containing exfoliating acids. Here are some examples: How to use Mario Badescu Aloe Vera Toner ua-cam.com/video/u87G-sNExTs/v-deo.html How to use COSRX Centella Water Alcohol Free Toner ua-cam.com/video/GOFm8SeXLgA/v-deo.html How to use I'm From Rice Toner ua-cam.com/video/V8UInh-yHPI/v-deo.html
Please please please reply me asap … I’m new to skin care routine and I’m 25 .. Today for the first time i used peeling solution after cleansing my face … Now after the peeling solution can i use a moisturiser which contains Vit C ??? Or what else should i use ???? And also can i use vit c and Retinol at the same routine ???
Thanks for the video! Recently I ordered The Ordinary Azelaic Acid and Niacinamide, I would like to ask how I can use them? Should I separate them into am and pm or can use both together? Also in the evening, my dermatologist prescribed me sulfur. Can I use azelaic acid with sulfur or no? Will be grateful for your reply!
Well, you can use Niacinamide and Azelaic Acid in the same routine. But, you could use them in the morning and your sulfur cream(?)in the evening. If you want to be safe, just ask your dermatologist if you can combine them in the same routine because I am not sure about that.
Can I use Hydraulic acid and Niacinamide after the AHA peeling solution. If yes, then what should be applied first and do I need to wait before application of other product
Yes, that's fine! :) After you have rinsed off the mask and pat the skin damp/or dry apply Hyaluronic Acid at first and then follow with Niacinamide :)
Have a look at this video: How To Use The Ordinary Peeling Solution With Niacinamide | Full Demonstration: ua-cam.com/video/JNl2F18t4MM/v-deo.html Hope this helps :)
Am: 1.Clean your face 2.Niacinamide 3.Moisturizer 4.SPF Pm: 1.Clean your face 2. Niacinamide 3. Rosehip Seed oil 4. Moisturizer You can also mix the Rosehip seed oil with your moisturizer!

Melissa is very knowledgeable, I trust her
Once again a thoroughly explained video. Well done!
After l do the peeling mask, I use The Ordinary's resveratrol/ferulic acid serum mixed with their ascorbic acid serum. My skin is glowing. 😌
Really great info. I use an aloe vera gel after the AHA BHA peel. It seems to be ok. Maybe next time, I will use argan oil. Thanks for the advice.

Hmm, I wouldn't use it the day after. But instead, wait for a couple of days since the skin is very sensitive the day after.
I will think about it and see if I can do a video about it. I took a note :) Thanks
Thank you for this video Melissa.I love The Ordinary peeling solution.I made a review on it and everyone loves it.It really helped in clearing out my skin

Question: how long should I wait (after the peel) before washing my face all over again and doing my normal routine ?
Hello 😀Hm 🤔 I am not sure what you mean but here you can see the whole process:
How To Use The Ordinary AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution | Full & In-Depth Demonstration:

u could do it at night and then rinse your face with water , moisturizer then when u wake up wash ur face with cleanser normally and do ur skincare routine
10 minutes
You don't wash you face all over again use your cleanser, toner(optional), peeling solution, and moisturizer. You don't re wash after you use this product
Question.. Can I use vitamin c before putting the ordinary Niacinamide serum? Pls respond. I love your videos
The Ordinary does not recommend using Vitamin C and Niacinamide in the same routine. So you can use your Vitamin C in the AM and Niacinamide in the PM (also after the Peeling Solution) :)
Hi Melissa! Can I use retinol in the same routine after i used the peel? Or should I not do both in the same day? For example: 1. Wash face 2. Peeling Mask 3. Hyaluronic Acid 4. Retinol 5. Niacimide 6. Moisturizer. I’m pretty new to skincare so I want to make sure I’m doing things right! Thank you!
@Mónica Mancía
PM: (Once a week)
1. Wash face
2. Peeling Mask
3. Hyaluronic Acid (Water-Based Serum)
4. Niacinamide (Water-Based Serum)
5. Retinol (Anhydrous solution or emulsion)
6. Moisturizer (Cream)
But since you are pretty new to skincare, I recommend not using them all at once, and it can be quite overwhelming for the skin.
Also, have a look at these videos:
How To Use The Ordinary Granactive Retinoid 2% in Emulsion | Full Demonstration:
ua-cam.com/video/kDGExkptI1c/v-deo.html
How To Use The Ordinary AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution | Full & In-Depth Demonstration:
ua-cam.com/video/wSY0pYcy8KY/v-deo.html
The general rule of thumb for order of application is:
1. Water-based serums
2. Anhydrous Solutions and Oil Formulations
3. Creams & suspensions
Important:
If you have more than one water-based serum, you can apply based on the priority of your concern (the product that targets the most important concern should go first). And it’s recommended applying eye-serums (such as Caffeine Solution 5% + EGCG) first after cleansing.
And a maximum of three serum formulations in a single regimen.
Always apply sunscreen when you are exposed to the sun!!
Melissa Van Dijk thanks so much for your reply!!! Its super helpful
Would you please answer my two questions since you're an expert at this. Can I use whitening serum one day after using the ordinary peeling solution?
And I'm using an at home ipl hair removal device
What's the safe time length to keep between the ordinary peeling solution and the at home ipl hair removal device PLEASE ANSWER.
It is not recommended to use a whitening serum one day after using The Ordinary Peeling Solution. This is because the peeling solution can cause skin sensitivity and irritation, and using a whitening serum may further irritate the skin.
Regarding the use of an at-home IPL hair removal device after using The Ordinary Peeling Solution, it is best to wait at least a week before using the device. This is because the peeling solution can cause the skin to become more sensitive and using an IPL device too soon after can increase the risk of skin irritation, redness, or burning.
This is really helpful, thank you so much. I usually follow with micellar water, then niacinamide +zinc serum and a light moisturiser. I think I will now incorporate maybe some Argan oil, possibly some coconut oil? And ditching the micellar as its feels to drying.
I did a thin AHA/BHA masque for the first time in a couple of months today, my skin feels much sorer than usual (which is expected, I guess as the peeling process has started). I'm concerned that the niacinamide+zinc is interacting?
Hey :)
Thank you!
You could add a toner to your routine as well such as the Paula's Choice Enriched Calming Toner (that's one I like a lot!) Or as you've mentioned, add an oil and skip the Micellar Water :) The oil you choose depends on your preference! I don't like heavy oils, and out of all the Ordinary oils I love the B-Oil the most and like to mix it with my moisturizer :)
Did it burn or sting while you were using the mask?
Niacinamide and AHA or BHA exfoliating acids can be used in the same routine without a problem :)
Hope this helps :)
I love using Rose hip oil immediately after I do The Ordinary peel. It feels nourishing to my skin. I have Oily skin , otherwise normal, not sensitive ot acne prone.
If that works well for you, keep doing it like that! :)
Could you put in in your introduction what moisturizer you are using from The Ordinary and also wouldn't i have to use a sunscreen moisturizer?
I did mention the moisturiser at the beginning of the video😅 It's the Natural Moisturizing Factors + HA.
Well you get normal moisturisers without SPF, then you would need to use a separate sunscreen on top of your moisturiser or you get a moisturiser that has already SPF in it, then it is like a 2 in 1 😊
Hi Melissa,
Is a chemical sunscreen suitable for use after using the peeling solution.
E.g hatomugi sunscreen
You should use the Peeling Solution in the evening, and yes, apply sunscreen the next morning if you plan to have significant sun exposure. However, it’s not necessary if you’re staying mostly indoors.
After removing facial hair by flawless hair removal tool, in how many days should we use this peeling solution .. Please ma'am I need your valuable guidance.
Hello, not sure about this. I recommend waiting at least a few days! Also, I recommend doing some further research online.
Plz tell me
Next day after using ordinary peeling solution
Can we use scrub or how many after we can use scrub
Thanku
Maybe, this depends on how sensitive your skin may become after the Peeling Solution. Otherwise, wait one or two days before using the scrub again.
Thanku v much you replied Soo quick ...
Actually I did scrub v next day and my skin gets red ....
I think I will do scrub after 3 days of peeling or I don't need scrub??
One thing more plz tell me can I use masks second or third day of peeling thanku
@@jazilakram6226 If that was the case, it's best to wait 2-3 days in between before using your scrub. What kind of masks do you use? If those are just hydrating masks, you can use them the next day after the peeling solution. That's fine.
Your skin is amazing 😍!!!!!
hi, how long i should wait to put on makeup after using peeling solution? thank youu love the video
Personally, I would use it on the days/evening when not using any makeup. Unfortunately, I do not have a correct answer for this, but probably 15-30 minutes so that the skin can adjust the pH again.
hi melissa. it's commendable that you respond to all the comments. tbh, i only ever used lotion on my face and body, and im new to all these skin care supplies. i've been watching all these yt videos the past couple of weeks and have ordered a few of the supplies. im confused about when (morning or night or certain days a week) and in what order i should apply all the serums/oils that i have (or maybe i shouldn't apply some?) -- there's so much and different info out there, making it confusing. can you please help me? I have vitamin c serum, retinol serum, hyaluronic acid serum, ordinary aha 30% + bha 2% peeling solution, argon oil, jojoba oil, vitamin c oil. im also thinking about purchasing either glycolic acid or salicylic acid -- which one would you recommend? i would really appreciate your feedback. thank you.
Hey😊
Well, what is your skin type and what are your skin concerns?
Also, can you list the products by name and from what brand so that I can look them up and help you to set up a routine😅
@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet hey, thanks for replying! my skin is on the dry side if i don't apply any moisturizer. i have a few old acne scares. i get a pimple here and there once in a while, but nothing major. i would like to minimize my pores.
the vitamin c serum, retinol serum, hyaluronic acid serum are from tree of life (on amazon). the organic argon oil and organic jojoba oil is from cliganic. and the vitamin e oil is from bos essentials. and the ordinary aha 30% + bha 2% peeling solution. so far, i've used the ordinary peel once. and i use the oils to moisturize my face and body. i have yet to use any of the tree of life serums.
also, my mom has hyper-pigmentation on her forehead and cheeks -- is there an acid or product that you recommend for that?
@@nkaur5706 Hey😊
I had a look at your serums of tree of life and the good thing is they include Vitamin C derivatives which means that you can add the Ordinary Niacinamide Serum into your routine which targets large pores.
If you prefer to use the Ordinary Niacinamide - that one can not be used with any form of Vitamin C (based on the conflict chart from the Ordinary) therefore I recommend the serum.
So, the general rule of application is this:
- Cleanser
- Toner
- Exfoliator
- Serum
- Oil
- Moisturiser
- SPF
This is from the Ordinary:
The general rule of thumb for order of application is:
1. Water-based serums
2. Anhydrous Solutions and Oil Formulations
3. Lotions & Creams & suspensions
Important:
If you have more than one water-based serum, you can apply based on the priority of your concern (the product that targets the most important concern should go first).
It’s recommended using no more than 3 serum formulations in a single routine for optimal skin penetration.
About 2-3 drops of each serum and 1 pea-sized amount of creams should be enough for the full face and neck.
Use a "patting" application method, as opposed to "rubbing."
Always apply sunscreen when you are exposed to the sun!!
AM Routine:
- Cleanse
- Niacinamide
- Vitamin C
- (Optional) Oil
- (Optional) Moisturiser
PM Routine:
- Cleanse
- (Optional) Glycolic Or Lactic Acid
- Hyaluronic Acid
- Retinol
- (Optional) Oil
- (Optional) Moisturiser
Or
PM Routine:
- Cleanse
- Hyaluronic Acid
- Retinol
- (Optional) Mandelic Acid
- (Optional) Oil
- (Optional) Moisturiser
PM 2 Routine (1-2 times per week):
- Cleanse
- Peeling Solution
- Hyaluronic Acid
- (Optional) Oil
- (Optional) Moisturiser
What oil you want to use it up to you! See what feels the best! I always write it as optional since this is personal preference and you have to try it😅
If you don’t like the oils, try it without it or replace it with a moisturizer…this is something you’ll notice while applying the products😊
You can choose between Glycolic Acid, Lactic Acid and Mandelic Acid - they are all great - personally since I have a bit of a drier skin myself - I like Mandelic Acid a lot!
Now when using Glycolic Acid or Lactic Acid - those are water-based products which you apply after cleansing (or toning if you use one) but before the other serums. However, if you want to get Mandelic Acid - this is an anhydrous solution which you are going to use after your water-based products but before the oils!
When using the Peeling solution please do not use Glycolic Acid, Lactic Acid or Mandelic Acid that evening…
Also for your acne scars/spots that are darker - I recommend Alpha Arbutin😊
Hope this helps!

Hi please tell me, Can i use both hyaluronic and niacinamide after using the peeling solution ?
Yes, however, following with hydration only would be my recommendation :)
@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet okey thank you so much ❤️
the video was so straight forward and informative. i have oily and break out prone skin. My biggest concerns about my skin is my pores, blackheads and little bumps and some dark acne scars. I just decide to change my skin care routine and have constant one so i purchased the ordinary 30% aha solution as my first chemical exfoliation product. I currently use boscia detoxifying black cleanser. I also bought iunik tea tree relief serum and iunik centella calming gel cream as a moisturizer. I bought la roche posay anthelios spf 50+ dry touch anti shine sunscreen. So my question is that is it fine to apply iunik tea tree relief serum and then the iunik centella calming gel cream after this peeling solution? The serum includes tea tree oil, centella asiatica leaf water, 2% niacinamide. I heard that sometimes acids and niacinamide can react with each other. And is there any product you suggested for my routine such as toner, any other cleanser, mask, ingredient, or treatment products that can help with my skin?
Hey :)
Thank you! :)
I recommend only adding your moisturiser after the Peeling Solution because Tea Tree can be drying and it may be a bit irritating when using it after such a strong exfoliating acid mask.
To answer your question about Niacinamide and exfoliating acids, have a look at this video here:
Can I use Niacinamide with AHA or BHA (Glycolic Acid, Lactic Acid, Mandelic Acid, Salicylic Acid): ua-cam.com/video/Pw1iWF_Hdnk/v-deo.html

My husband has oily skin and he enjoys the combination of using Paula's Choice Vitamin C Serum and Azelaic Acid Booster. This combination keeps the oily at bay and even's out his skin tone.
So, you could use your Serum and Moisturiser + SPF in the AM and Paula's Choice Vitamin C Serum and Azelaic Acid Booster in the PM. Also, when using the Peeling Solution, just follow with your moisturiser.
If you have oily skin, using a moisturiser is not necessary, try skipping it as well so that you can see what works the best for you! :)
@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet thank you so much!
Hi what is best cream right after the aha bha peeling solution
Can you recommend me one cream or serum after the peeling solution

There is not a "best cream" since it depends on your skin type. You need to use one that is suitable for it.
CeraVe Ultra Light Pm Lotion works well on all skin types.
Your skin is absolutely goals, you're so beautiful ❤

Hi melissa! Can i wash my face with panoxyl creamy face wash then use this peeling solution? Thanks.
Please do not do that. The peeling solution is a powerful peel that should be used cautiously. Combining them can lead to severe irritation.

Hi thanks for good explanation....I just have small question after peeling the day after can I start my daily routine like ascorbic acid ?
Generally, yes. Just keep in mind to constantly adjust it to your skin needs. If you feel that it isn't working well, space them further apart :)
After used peeling solution we can use ordinary niacinamide 10%+zinc1% with daily moisturizing lostion or not ?
Yes, that's fine😊
Melissa Van Dijk thanks you!
Can you use the glyoclic acid toner 1 day after doing the peel? Would that be enough time for my skin be ok for using this toner.
You may not need it at all when using the peel. And from my experience, it is best to give it a couple of days, but it is individual, so test it but don't overdo it ;)
Hello Melissa! Can you use toner before the peeling solution?. I was also wondering if i could use only the 100% plant-Derived Squalane after the peeling solution or the Squalane with the Cerave facial moisturizer with Nothing more added after. I know that you should use sunscreen after But i live in Sweden and its winter, is it compulsory to add sunscreen?. I am Really scared using this product. Sorry for My bad english and i Would be Happy if you replied.
Hm, I was thinking about this recently. Technically it would help if you used the toner (hydrating and soothing toner) after the peel. But it can make sense to add it before as well to replenish the skin. However I never do that, so therefore I recommend using it after. Just be careful not to confuse it with an exfoliator ( ua-cam.com/video/EWU7vvGM9EM/v-deo.html)
Yes, you should add hydration. I am not sure if the Squalane would be enough, so it may be best to combine it with your moisturizer. But ultimately, you need to test it to see how it feels on your skin.
There is no need to be scared. You can watch the following video if you like(it contains a lot of information) :

I recently wanted to move to Sweden since your government has such a relaxed approach to the current situation. I like that.
Anyway, I hope that this helps. 🙂
Hey, melissa. I hope you are doing good.
Can I use a vitamin C serum after 30minutes rinsing off AHA BHA PEELING SOLUTION mask?
Well, you can do that. However, I would suggest using the Vitamin C serum only when not applying the peel. Otherwise, depending on the specific Vitamin C serum you use, you might still experience sensitivities leading to irritation.
hi can I use the niacinamide serum straight away after the peel or do I have to wait for 1-2 minutes? and after the serum can I use my moisturiser? ps this is totally unrelated but do u think the simple micellar facial wash is strong enough to remove sunscreen with spf 50? Thanks!

I used The Ordinary Rose Hip Seed Oil.

Thanks for those advice, so useful .greeting from Morocco ❤
You're welcome!
Hi, Melissa! Can I use the Cosrx Advanced Snail 92 All in One Cream after the peel?
As long as it does not include any hydroxy acids (AHA+BHA) you can use it.
Also avoid anything with vitamin c or retinol if you can. Your skin needs hydrating Ingredients, and I'd avoid anything high in fragrance.

@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet thankyou so much! A fan here from Milan Italyy 🥰❤️
if I use the peeling solution once a week, can I also use the lactic acid every other night or should I only use one at a time?
Yes you can use it every other night. However, how often you should exfoliate depends on your skin type and skin concerns. Some people do well exfoliating with AHA or BHA twice a day, whereas others find that once a day or every other day is a perfect balance. Test to see what works best for your skin.
thankyou!

-Salicylic Acid 2% Masque
-AHA 30 % + BHA 2% Peeling Solution
If anyone can help me with what order and when to use these during a week you would be a life saver ❤️
I can help you. Here is the information you need:
-Vitamin C Suspension 23% + HA Spheres 2%, (suspension)

-Lactic Acid 10% + HA 30ml (Water-Based Exfoliant)

-AHA 30 % + BHA 2% Peeling Solution(Mask Video: ua-cam.com/video/wSY0pYcy8KY/v-deo.html)
The general rule of thumb for order of application is:
1. Water-based serums
2. Anhydrous Solutions and Oil Formulations
3. Lotions & Creams & suspensions
Important:
If you have more than one water-based serum, you can apply based on the priority of your concern (the product that targets the most important concern should go first). And it’s recommended applying eye-serums (such as Caffeine Solution 5% + EGCG) first after cleansing.

Always apply sunscreen when you are exposed to the sun!!
Some products can have a foaming effect upon application depending on the other products you are using in your regimen. The foaming should not last longer than a few seconds and both should not remain sticky once absorbed into the skin. (Video: ua-cam.com/video/r04W7rQV1R0/v-deo.html)
"Pilling" (snakeskin, shedding) can occur due to too much product. Your skin can only absorb a certain amount of product, and any excess will be left on top of the skin so that when the next product is being applied, it rubs off. (Video: ua-cam.com/video/l_C7HtO826A/v-deo.html)
If you wish to incorporate multiple Vitamin C's, Retinoids, and/or Direct Acids into your skincare regimen, it's suggested using them on alternate evenings and waiting until your skin has adjusted to one before introducing another.
Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% cannot be used alongside any pure or ethylated forms of Vitamin C.
Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% can only be used alongside Vitamin C derivatives:
- Ascorbyl Glucoside Solution 12%
- Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate Solution 20% in Vitamin F

Hi!! Thanks for the videos, quick question...can I apply makeup after doing this? Or should I wait for a couple of days? Is my first time using this product.
Well, you should use the Peeling Solution in the evening so, you can apply makeup the next day/morning. However, if you are using the Peeling Solution in the evening, before going out, like join a Party or so, yes you can use makeup after that.
@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet thank you so much!
Hi! I suffer from dry skin, but also very red skin.
My current routine is (the ordinary and CeraVe):
AM
-CeraVe SA Cleanser
-Hyaluronic Acid
-Ordinary Natural Moisturising Factors
PM
-Squalene Cleanser
-CeraVe SA Cleanser
-Niacinamide and Zinc
-Ordinary Natural Moisturising Factors
ONCE A WEEK
-AHA & BHA Peeling Solution
I was wanting to add the following to my routine:
-Azelaic Acid Suspension
-Glycolic Toning Solution
-Alpha Arbutin
Do you think these are safe to add to my routine? If so, where in the routine should I add them?
Also currently looking for a face suncream if anyone has any recommendations.
Thank you, loved the video! Open to anyones ideas!
Since when are you using those products? And how are they working for you so far? After you're done with your current routine, how does your skin feel? Hydrated or still dry?
Do you have sensitive skin? And do you suffer from Rosacea? Also, since when do you experience red skin?
Melissa Van Dijk
I’ve been using for a couple weeks - really enjoying it so far, my skin texture is feeling much better but still has a long way to go.
I’m not diagnosed with rosacea but have very red cheeks that I think it’s definitely a possibility!
My skin feels hydrated after using these products but not greasy or oily at all - could still be more hydrated!
I thought I had fairly sensitive skin but haven’t had any issues with the new routine so far, I’ve just always tended to go for more basic products.
My main goals are to reduce redness and to get smoother skin - my face is fairly rough/bumpy and it really gets me down how it shows under foundation.
Thanks for your reply!
Melissa Van Dijk
I didn’t see your last question sorry - I’ve had red skin since puberty! I’m now 22 so for the past 7 years or so!
@@sarahglass3344 Well, your skincare routine looks so far good. However, I recommend stop using the Peeling Solution, and I do not recommend using Glycolic Acid or any other type of AHA since this can make the skin-redness worse...which we don't want!
Still, you can try Azelaic Acid for sure! Either the one from the Ordinary or Paula's Choice (the texture is different!).
For your redness, you may want to try Antioxidants like EUK 134 from the Ordinary since it mentions that it targets redness. Why do you want to try out Alpha Arbutin? For what concerns?😊
@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet Thanks for your response and advice! Will avoid the Glycolic acid - was worried about it but the skin texture/pore benefits appealed to me. Will also look into EUK 134 - Thanks!
I wanted to try to Alpha Arbutin after seeing multiple people on youtube saying they've used it to help clear redness (i.e. ua-cam.com/video/KUAJS1UHYR4/v-deo.html&ab_channel=GeorgePopovic). Along with hopefully evening out skin texture.
Can you still hydro and cerave after rose? Thank you new follower
Hm...what do you mean?
Hi 😊 Greetings from Malaysia!
I love your videos and you're really awesome 🌻
I've a question.
I'm 22 and I've oily skin, acne scars, PIH with few acne. I've been using neutrogena foam cleanser, neutrogena alcohol free toner, The Ordinary niacinamide and neutrogena hydro boost moisturiser.
After watching your videos, I'm planning to buy The ordinary retinoid emulsion, aha bha peeling solution and glycolic acid. Is there anything that you could suggest me on the products that I'm planning to purchase or the ones that I'm currently using? I'll really appreciate it if you help me on this and thank you so much in advance! 😊
And also could you please suggest me a good sunscreen preferably from drugstore?
Thanks again ☺️ @melissavandijk
Hello 😀 from Austria 🇦🇹
Well, I have had a bad experience with the Hydro Boost line, except the cleanser, but I haven’t used it regularly.
Based on your concerns, an example routine could look like this:
AM
Cleanser
Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1%
(Moisturizer if needed)
SPF
PM (best option but the main product is not available)
Cleanser
Salicylic Acid 2% Solution (currently not available)
Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1%
100% Plant-Derived Squalane
PM1 (5 times a week)
Cleanser
Glycolic Acid 7%
Granactive Retinoid Emulsion 2%
Borage Seed Oil
PM2 (2times a week, for example, Monday and Thursday):
AHA 30% + BHA 2%
Borage Seed oil or 100% Plant-Derived Squalane
Drugstore Sunscreen 🤔 I don't know sorry😞 I haven't tried many, and I am sticking with La Roche Posay Anthelios, it works great for me.
More information from my smart books 😀:

Retinol, Retinyl Esters, and Retinoic Acid: imgur.com/a/muJgmAO
Salicylic Acid: imgur.com/a/ZxHziDp

@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet Hey😊 Thank you so much for your time. I really appreciate it 😁
Oh.. I've been using the hydro boost line for the past few months and it works pretty good for me.
So for AM, it's not necessary to use toner is it?
If the salicylic acid is available, can i follow like this? 👇
PM1:
cleanser
Salicylic acid
Niacinamide
100% plant-derived squalane
PM2:
Cleanser
AHA BHA
100% plant-derived squalane
It is not compulsory to wear moisturiser is it?
So, i don't have to purchase glycolic acid and granactive retinoid emulsion right?
But i heard granactive retinoid emulsion and glycolic acid are very effective for acne scars.
Thank you so much! 🌻 Lots of love ❤️
Using a toner is optional!
You can get for example a BHA (Salicylic Acid) exfoliating solution from Paula's Choice which I personally like a lot! It's the blue one from the clear line, but apparently the black one is great too!😊
Only use a moisturiser if you feel the need!
Yes, this is a great combination, have a look at this routine:

@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet Hey! 😊 Thanks again for your time.
Oh alright, noted. Will watch the video. 🤗
I really appreciate it. Lots of love! ❤️❤️
Hello! How long should I wait to use benzoyl peroxide after peeling solution? Please and thank you!
don't do that. Use it the next day or even a day after (depending on how well you tolerated the peeling solution)
Hii can i use the azelaic acid and alpha arbutin while also using the peeling solution??
yes, but not during the same routine.
Thank you so much for the info, exactly what I needed too know and straight too the point 😊
🥰
As i have breakouts n tiny bumps on my face .will it harm if i use the ordinary aha bha peeling solution?
No, as long as you haven't popped them, you can use it.
Is using the ordinary natural moisturizer okay to use after the peeling solution?
Yes, it is :)

Also I can use the ordinary cleanser everyday?
@@veronicadamico6211 yes, you can.
Hi! I bought the Niacinamide, the hyaluronic and the lactic acid. What do I apply after the mask? Can I apply both Niacinamide and hyaluronic?
Yes, you can apply them.

Edit, do not apply the lactic acid. Since AHA is Glycolic Acid, Lactic Acid, etc.

Hello Melissa, Could I use the ordinary alpha arbutin + HA serum after AHA BHA peel in the same routine?
How long should I wait before using retinoids or ascorbic acid on my skin?
Yes, you can use them, but it depends on your skin's tolerance and the potency of the retinoid or ascorbic acid you're using. If they are of lower strength, it might be safe to use them the next day. However, if you're using a high-strength product, it's advisable to wait at least a day or two in between applications.
Hii, Melissa! i also need your help😊
so, I'm a bit confused should i use my toner ( aha, bha, pha 30 days miracle toner from some by mi) before or after this exfoliator or should i skip this step at all?
Hello Nora,
The product you have is also an exfoliating acid toner, so it shouldn't be used in the same routine as the peeling solution. After the peel, you should only use hydrating toners that add moisture without containing exfoliating acids.

@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet got you, thaaanks♡
Please please please reply me asap …
I’m new to skin care routine and I’m 25 ..
Today for the first time i used peeling solution after cleansing my face …
Now after the peeling solution can i use a moisturiser which contains Vit C ??? Or what else should i use ????
And also can i use vit c and Retinol at the same routine ???
What Vitamin C and Retinol products do you use?
The best would be to only add hydration afterwards.
Can i use the niacinamide stuff after the peeling? Or should i wait till morning ?
yes, you can use it after, but make also sure to add hydration.
@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet thank you!
Thanks for the video! Recently I ordered The Ordinary Azelaic Acid and Niacinamide, I would like to ask how I can use them? Should I separate them into am and pm or can use both together? Also in the evening, my dermatologist prescribed me sulfur. Can I use azelaic acid with sulfur or no? Will be grateful for your reply!
Well, you can use Niacinamide and Azelaic Acid in the same routine. But, you could use them in the morning and your sulfur cream(?)in the evening.
If you want to be safe, just ask your dermatologist if you can combine them in the same routine because I am not sure about that.
@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet thanks a lot!! ❤️
Is it ok to use nature republic aloe Vera gel after using that product?
Yes, that's fine! :)
Thank you😊
How about salicylic acid ice cream mask,is it ok to use?
@@madylynturtur1147 No, I recommend using that one on days when not using the Peeling Solution :)
Oh...ok thank you so much for the info 😍
Can I use Hydraulic acid and Niacinamide after the AHA peeling solution. If yes, then what should be applied first and do I need to wait before application of other product
Yes, that's fine! :)
After you have rinsed off the mask and pat the skin damp/or dry apply Hyaluronic Acid at first and then follow with Niacinamide :)
Great advice as always. Thank you 😊
Can i use hyaluronic and Niacinamide waterbased serum after the ordinary peeling solution?
Yes :)
@@MelissaVanDijkTheSkinDiet oh thanks for your reply.. 💕

Hi Melisssa, great video! Can I use vitamin C (20%) at the same day with the peeling solution?
I wouldn't recommend doing that since it may lead to skin sensitivity. Use your Vitamin C when not using the peeling solution.
Hello, which type (chemical, mineral ) of sunscreen should I use after this?
It's up to you. But keep in mind you only need protection during the day. So when you usually do this peel, no sunscreen is necessary for the evening. I mean, unless you are still exposed to the sun.
Where do you store your peeling solution? Does it have to be in the fridge? Thanks!
No, it can be stored at room temperature :)
Hi darling I used to put glycolic acid on My skin how much time I need to wait without it in order to start the aha peeling please I need your answer
what do you mean by that? 🤔
