Hi Melissa 👋 What is the best retinol product and benzoyl peroxide gel that you suggest for acne prone skin with pores ? And I really love your videos ♡♡
Hello :) For me, it works best with a cleanser and a retinoid gel. Differin Daily Deep Cleanser 5% or Panoxyl Benzoyl Peroxide Cleanser 4% Adapalene/Differin Gel How to use Panoxyl Benzoyl Peroxide Cleanser and Differin Gel for Acne-Prone Skin: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-nu1Wo9O_6e0.html
Hello! Can I alternate azelaic acid and salicylic acid throughout the week or is that too much? I don’t have any active acne currently but I want to improve my texture and hyperpigmentation.
Hi Melissa I am a teen and gonna use these products for skincare I have oily skin so it would be right if I use these products and should I use it everyday in morning 1) pond's face wash 2) niacinamide 10%+zinc1% 3)100% organic cold pressed Rose hip seed oil 4) any sunscreen
Hello from Greece 🇬🇷 💙!!! Can you please give us a video about led therapy musk??? Can people having thyroid issues use it???? Always be healthy!!!!!🇬🇷💙💙💙
I really like Beauty of Joseon Green Plum Cleanser, The Ordinary Glucoside Foaming Cleanser, or Cetaphil Oily/Daily Facial Skin Cleanser. However, as for your pimples, I recommend checking on your sleep, stress, and diet, as these factors can lead to such issues. I'm currently conducting an experiment, focusing solely on my diet to control-perhaps even cure-my acne, as I want to address its root cause!

Hey Melissa! So I should not use niacinamide 10% from Minimalist with salicylic acid from Minimalist together? I have been using them together for a month now and I didn't think about it 🤐
If you have used them together and everything works out fine for you, keep using them like that. I also think they have changed their Niacinamide serum formulation because I can't see EUK in the ingredients list anymore.
Hii Melissa! I wanted to know if it’s okay to use TO’s glycolic acid on scalp and does it really help with hair growth? If it’s okay to use it on scalp then how to use it and is it necessary to apply sunscreen on scalp?
Hello Teddy Bear, 🧸 It is difficult to use on the scalp if you have hair. And it does not help with hair growth (Nobody is verifying the information people put out there, so they just make up crazy things to sell their stuff ;) )
Hi Melissa🌼 I'm already using Paula's choice 2% BHA exfoliator twice a week, so do i need to use any other leave on exfoliator alongside it or just Paula's Choice 2% BHA exfoliator twice a week is fine?
@@sharmasharma2468 Well, you could add hydration by using something like a hyaluronic acid serum or products like Cosrx Snail Mucin, which can give you a glow as the skin stays longer hydrated.
Hey Melissa can you help me out. I have textured skin can i use ordinary lactic acid daily at night and ordinary aha bha peeling solution once in a week. Is it good routine for textured skin?
Hey! :) Yes, this can work if your skin tolerates it. Still, have a look at the video below: The Ordinary Skincare Routine for Textured Skin: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Jkm60KDnhfw.html
So, technically yes, but this may change over time. You might need to adjust the frequency to once per day or every other day if you start to experience sensitivities or excessive dryness.
I use the Aveeno eczema care itch relief balm.But that lotion is greasy I prefer not using it in summer. I have no choice because that is the only face moisturizer that doesn’t leave my face flakey and dry. I want to find exact same face moisturizer but I don’t know what to look for , that has same ingredients that are in the Aveeno eczema care without leaving my face greasy.
Hey! Have you had a look at Aveeno Calm and Restore Gel Moisturizer? Do you have eczema? Do you have it on your body and/or face? Do you have sensitive skin?
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial I have used that one that one, it left me dry and flakey skin which was why I stopped it. I have dry skin so every time I wash my face with salicylic acid it always leaves me dry and flakey. I have eczema in some part on my body. But the face is my main concern
Did u mean... If i am using T Ordinary squalane cleanser than i can't use T Ordinary sylacelic acid serum 🙄🙄🙄 Than why did i buy both for pm routine 😒😒
Hi, hope are you doing good Melissa, Is there any substitute for" paula's choice skin recovery calming toner " , coz this is not very easily available in India .
Hello Smitha, I am doing okay, how about you? 🤔 No need to use that toner; just use the minimalist Hyaluronic Acid serum or The Ordinary Marine Hyaluronics; it is much cheaper and will show similar effects :)
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial I m doing good melissa , thank you for asking 😘, And will sure give it a try on the products you mentioned !! Thanks for the reply dear 😘!!
Hii, actually I wanted to ask for an advice. I have been using TO’s Niacinamide since 1 and a half years but from yesterday I am experiencing a bit irritation near both the ends of my nose but only that specific areas and no where else. But after the application of moisturiser I don’t feel irritated. So is this normal?
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficial means both lactic acid and mandelic acid isn't best😮 I'm already used AHA BHA peeling solution once a week , lactic acid and mandelic acid both are not good ?
So, what are your skin concerns? What skincare products do you currently use? Glycolic, Lactic and Mandelic Acid are all great. However, Mandelic Acid is 'the gentlest' followed by Lactic Acid, and Glycolic Acid is the strongest, which depending on your skin, can lead to stinging and/or burning.
Yes, for an SA cleanser and serum, I would suggest using them at different times, or even on alternate days, as using them together may be overly drying over time.
@@rizo8075 Technically, yes, but practically, it may become too much over time. Therefore, alternating with another milder gel-to-foam cleanser would likely be better. But, I mean, just test it.
@@MelissaVanDijkOfficialDue to sun and acne. actually i used to pop my acne and go out without sunscreen and can I use face wash instead of cleanser. (Sorry if my English is bad)
@@shivtushal8121 Yes, salicylic acid helps with exfoliating the skin. But there's not much you can do; please watch the short video that I have linked above.
