the ordinary niacinamide and hyaluronic acid 1 MONTH review (with BEFORE/AFTER)

FAQ in here!!

disclaimer: i am no skincare expert/dermatologist/etc. just trying out products on my oily-combi skin. I also get that my skin isn't as acne-prone as some other people who use these products to control more severe kinds of acne (cystic + rosacea, etc.).

tldw; this is pretty decent stuff for oil control (niacinamide) and softer skin (hyaluronic acid). if you live in a tropical climate country (e.g. SINGAPORE), I think they work a little differently than what you'd expect though in the long run it'll probs make a difference!!!

✰ FAQ ✰

What's the order you apply it in?
HA then Niacinamide one after the other, in the morning after I rinse my face with water (no facial wash)!

How do you apply it?
I squeeze a droplet on my palm and then pat it into my face with my fingertips. Also, I make sure my face is damp before I get HA on!

Do you use a moisturiser?
I only used it in the beginning 2 weeks when my nose started peeling! Ever since I started applying the products on damp skin, there wasn't any peeling = no need for moisturisers.

Do you use these products daily?
Yes.

Are these products good for oily skin?
I believe so, based on Google/The Ordinary explanations online, both HA and Niacinamide are targeted at reducing sebum/oiliness in their own unique ways (hydration, pore minimisation, etc.). Its worked for me so far but like I mentioned, try in your own capacity because skincare products probably work a little differently with everyone's skin.

How long do you leave them on for?
At least 15-20min but usually I just go about my day with them on.

Why didn’t you use sunscreen?
I use Nature Republic’s Camellia facial sunscreen daily post-niacinamide and HA application! It’s just not in this video because I was reviewing The Ordinary products.
