Used lactic acid 10% w/ HA a few times without applying a moisturizer. I experienced a bit of stinging but it faded quickly. The last time I applied a moisturizer and the stinging was intense. The next day there was peeling. Everyone says that this product doesn’t peel. For 48 hours I applied moisture only. After a couple of days without actives my skin was back to normal. Anyone else experience this?
old comment, but two possibilities - your moisturiser might be too occlusive and intensifying the effects of the lactic acid, or you applied your moisturiser too soon after the lactic acid. I recommend waiting for 10-15 minutes between the lactic acid + moisturiser
I like derma rolling, using a 0.25 needle. 3 times a week. Around month 9, hyperpigmentation will fade away. Just derma roll on the hyperpigmented areas.
Dermarolling with 0.25mm is amazing to help infuse your active ingredients even deeper into the skin. Highly recommend! Skin Needling or Microneedling in a clinic by a professional is also great for hyperpigmentation.
Hi. Can I use the ordinary lactic acid 5% after cleansing face with bioderma sebium gel moussant actif? This cleanser also contain aha. Please reply, thank you
Vitamin C is great for brightening the skin and helping your hyperpigmentation. However Olay would have a low concentrate of this ingredient. I would opt for The Ordinary or Paula’s choice for your skincare if you are looking for affordable active skincare ingredients. The ordinary alpha arbutin, niacinamide and vitamin c serum will be great. Remember sunscreen too. Melasma is often caused by hormonal or medication changes. It is a different type of pigmentation. If you’ve had it for a while and you are not pregnant/breast feeding - get this checked with your doctor :)

Any of the ones mentioned in the video will be good but I would start by only using once a week if you are sensitive. It’s normal for you to get some tingling for a few minutes but it should subside. I would also include niacinamide in your skincare routine to help with barrier repair if you are both oily and prone to sensitivity. Avoid face cleansers that contain sulfates or give you that squeaky clean feeling as that is often a sign of stripping away your natural oils and your skin will try to compensate by producing excess oil.
Both are great, however lactic acid has a larger molecular size so it is more gentle less irritating on your skin. It is also hydrating. So if you have dry skin or sensitive skin, it would be more suitable. Glycolic acid has a smaller molecular weight which means that it penetrates your skin easier. However, because of this, it’s also more likely to cause skin irritation. You could find a serum that has both acids in it that is well formulated, and that would be perfect!
@@SkinZoneTV si es verdad, tan solo uso el shampoo con ácido glicólico para lavar el rostro y si llega a irritar, gracias por la información. No sabía del ácido láctico

Hey there! Start incorporating Vitamin A and Niacinamide as these will target both your breakouts, pigment and great anti-aging ingredients. Focus on clearing up your breakouts first, then you can incoporate Vitamin C into your routine. I have a few videos on these ingredients you can check out in this playlist here - ua-cam.com/play/PLTXxo44bCHJLrF4N8K3aeXVx9yOzTepgg.html
Hi, dear can you help me please,i have slight discoloration on my cheeks i think it's the beginning of melasma which one is better for me - tranexamic acid or kojic acid.thanks in advance.
@@SkinZoneTV i am using cosglo gel,it contains - kojic acid, niacinamide and alpha arbutin it's my third tube,it works but very slow now I want to try tranexamic acid but I am scare, it's good or not i am confused 🤔
@@mohammadshariq7205 yes Tranexamic acid can inhibit and reduce UV-induced hyperpigmentation and has an ability to reduce the severity of melasma (hormonally induced hyperpigmentation). I would go to a dermatologist or doctor to get confirmation if it is the beginning of melasma. Make sure to wear sunscreen as well daily. Since you have already been using kojic acid, you can try tranexamic acid in a serum form. Always read product label and instructions. If you are worried, introduce slowly or patch test first
Hey!! Lactic acid is exfoliating, so replace it for your exfoliation phase of your skincare routine. Apply all over the face, neck and chest area. Avoid eyes and lips. It is a more gentle form of chemical exfoliant and it is hydrating. If you have sensitive skin, opt for a lower % and start off slowly by using only once or twice a week. You can always patch test prior to use, but follow product usage guidelines of the skincare product you purchase. Niacinamide would also be a great skin ingredient for your sensitivity and hyperpigmentation.
Hi, i have melasma on cheeks which is spreading now on forehead and uperlip. And i am loosing my confidence. I have started using skinoren cream in the moring following 50 spf sun block, And my night skin care routine is below. Monday. Hyoloronic Tuesday. Niacinamide Wed. Hyoloronic Thursday Tranexamic Friday Hyoloronic Saturday Niacinamide Sunday Hyoloronic I haven't started retinol yet. Pls guide me if i m doing anything wrong. Or what should i use.

I'm taking tranexamic acid pills by mouth twice a day for 2 months on and 2 months off. That is how my dermatologist recommended it. I'm also using the lactic acid twice a week at night and not using my tretinoin on the same nights.
I have a blemishes problem on my face during pregnancy and after my baby's delivery. Could you please suggest me which products I should use for it...please
Best check with your local GP only because if you’re breastfeeding you’re limited to the type of products you can actually use on your skin. You need to wait until you’re fully finish breastfeeding and then you can incorporate vitamin A and salicylic acid into your routine. Your blemishes also might be hormonal and might disappear after your hormone levels balance and are back to normal
Hi, I have pigmentation on my face, 1 or 2 pimple scars also have discoloration only in my hands and feet. Hands and feet are more darker than body and face. I ordered ordinary buffet copper peptides and already using ascorbic acid+ alpha arbutin for my face but what about my hands and feet what should I use to get rid of those tan and discoloration also do I need to include anything for my face as I also want anti-aging properties. Please suggest me.
Vitamin C is anti-aging as it stimulates the fibroblasts in the dermis to create more healthy strong collagen. You can always include The Ordinary granactive retinoid 2% to your routine in the evening. In terms of your hands and feet, they will be naturally darker than the rest of your body as they exposed to sunlight more often. You can use your skincare on your hands and feet also but just start wearing sunscreen in these areas.
@@SkinZoneTV can I use buffet copper peptides and retinoid 2% in the same time? And what should I use on my elbow, armpit, knees and thigh and vagina area to remove darkness?
@@halimatussadia1754 No The ordinary recommends you don’t mix or layer the buffet + copper peptides and retinoids/retinol together. Use on alternating nights. It’s the copper peptides that can react with the retinoid. We recommend you see your local dermatolgist for those other areas you listed, as some of these areas are sensitive and thin.
I have pigmentation, discoloration and acne scars on my face since teenage , I'm 24 now should I buy lactic acid ordinary? Will it help? Skin type normal to little oily
Hey Laila, yes lactic acid from the ordinary is great but only use 2 x per week. It is a gentle form of exfoliation but ensure you wear sunscreen daily. It won't fade your hyperpigmentation alone though, but it is the best exfoliation ingredient to use for hyperpigmentation. Other ingredients you should add to your routine are Alpha Arbutin, Niacinamide and Azelaic acid. These inhibit the enzyme that creates pigmentation so it will prevent excess hyperpigmentation from forming but also fade your current dark spots. Since you are interested in The Ordinary - We have a video here of the TOP 5 Skincare for Hyperpigmentation and How To Layer Them - ua-cam.com/video/x4BhTAFZ8ss/v-deo.html
@@Mah_noor90 We haven’t used that one however it is marketed as oil free so it looks like it should be a good one for you. Any sunscreen is better than none! I would read the reviews as often people will mention “oil” “greasy” etc so you can get a better idea
Hyperpigmentation is a stubborn skin condition that requires ongoing maintenance of the correct skin care ingredients to inhibit the tyrosinase enzymes in the skin that produces excess pigment. Lactic acid as an exfoliation will help lighten the area, but if it is around the mouth it sounds hormonal. You can chat to your doctor about your hormone levels. Ingredients like niacinamide, vitamin a, vitamin c, alpha arbutin and lactic acid are perfect for homecare.
@@anupamaverma7708 I personally only use 2x a week but I also use Vitamin A in my routine. 2x a week is plenty :) you can add other skin ingredients into your routine that also help with hyperpigmentation like vitamin c + alpha arbutin, niacinamide and vitamin a.
Hi can lactic acid be used with vitamin c? I guess yes. But when to cooperate niacinamide? You said lactic acid works better with niacinamide but niacinamide cannot be used along with Vit C. So?
AHAs and BHAs, such as glycolic, salicylic, and lactic acids should never be used with Vitamin C. Vitamin C is an acid, too, and is unstable, so the pH balance will be thrown off by layering these ingredients together and might as well be useless.
Bha is perfect for helping with breakouts, milia and blackheads as it is oil soluble and able to penetrate deeper. Lactic acid is a gentle acid perfect for hyperpigmentation

@@Mah_noor90 We haven’t used that one however it is marketed as oil free so it looks like it should be a good one for you. Any sunscreen is better than none! I would read the reviews as often people will mention “oil” “greasy” etc so you can get a better idea
I have pigmentation around mouth.will it remove????
Hyperpigmentation is a stubborn skin condition that requires ongoing maintenance of the correct skin care ingredients to inhibit the tyrosinase enzymes in the skin that produces excess pigment. Lactic acid as an exfoliation will help lighten the area, but if it is around the mouth it sounds hormonal.
You can chat to your doctor about your hormone levels. Ingredients like niacinamide, vitamin a, vitamin c, alpha arbutin and lactic acid are perfect for homecare.
@@SkinZoneTV no , it's not harmonal a homeopathy doctor near me he gives me a glycolic acid creme for my acne marks and I got allergic
Have you tried Lactic Acid? How did you like it?
Yes
Can we use it daily ?
After skin gets used to it
@@anupamaverma7708 I personally only use 2x a week but I also use Vitamin A in my routine.
2x a week is plenty :)
you can add other skin ingredients into your routine that also help with hyperpigmentation like vitamin c + alpha arbutin, niacinamide and vitamin a.

Hi can lactic acid be used with vitamin c? I guess yes. But when to cooperate niacinamide? You said lactic acid works better with niacinamide but niacinamide cannot be used along with Vit C. So?
I would use niacinamide in the evening
AHAs and BHAs, such as glycolic, salicylic, and lactic acids should never be used with Vitamin C. Vitamin C is an acid, too, and is unstable, so the pH balance will be thrown off by layering these ingredients together and might as well be useless.
Glycolic acid is too small of a molecule which makes it more irritating for me. I love lactic acid!!!!
us too!!
Nice shring
happy to hear you enjoyed the video!

I thought bha was better for hyperpigmentation.
Bha is perfect for helping with breakouts, milia and blackheads as it is oil soluble and able to penetrate deeper. Lactic acid is a gentle acid perfect for hyperpigmentation
