    Major ingredients:

    Maqui: The most antioxidant dense fruit in the world. This rare superberry helps combat free radicals. Acai: Rich in omega 3, 6, and 9 fatty acids that help to revive dull, dry skin. Prickly Pear: Extremely hydrating. Helps ease signs of redness. Goji: Rich in antioxidants, essential fatty acids and vitamins C, and E. Helps soften the appearance of fine lines and combat free radicals.

    One of my favourite discoveries this year has been the YTTP’s Superberry Hydrate + Glow Oil. It has some fragrance so I don’t use this all the time - but when I do, this is simply incredible. If you have healthy skin, this will literally make you look like a walking Snapchat filter, your skin radiates. I run this on dates with some Baccarat Rouge 540 & it’s so dangerous, get compliments instantly!

    Bought this purely off the design and your input

    This s*** is amazing. My skin looks and feels much softer after the first use.

    Deciding if I should just use this as my only product I use in the morning

    Awesome! Glad it worked for you, it’s quite literally a hack. I do recommend you have some more products, nothing crazy but a moisturizer & SPF would be wonderful and nutritious for the skin.

    The Ordinary's Niacinamide serum and AHA/BHA peeling solution helped me A LOT.

    Copped both of these, but confused as to how to incorporate both into my routine. Do I use them at the same time? If so, would something like the following work? (Current routine is only the PM part)

    AM:
    Cleanse
    Niacinamide/BHA
    Moisturize
    Sunscreen

    PM:
    Cleanse
    Toner
    Moisturize

    LRP Toleriane Moisturizer been repairing my face not gonna lie
    Used TO Rosehip Oil as a moisturizer for months but it's not been enough, with this on it finally filled in some of my wrinkles and gave my face a fuller and smoother finish

  • Routine is pretty minimal with just a cleanser, moisturizer, once a week exfoliator (all Krave Beauty) and some gel mineral sunscreen (Canmake). Received many compliments on my skins although I sort of want to rotate to a waterproof sunscreen.

    I would personally use AHA/BHA at night since it makes your skin more sensitive to UV Rays (Sun). I tend to use it 1-2x a week.

    I don't like using the Niacinamide in the same day that I use my BHA because I read somewhere that the two products don't mix well.

    However, you can use the Niacinamide everyday except the day/s that you use your BHA :) !

    How do I use Vitamin C and Hyaluronic Acid together?

    Normal use..

    Vitamin C should be applied to bare skin followed by whatever form of HA you have. There’s few ingredients in skincare that don’t go together so don’t worry.

    The major no-no is mixing acids or actives - like don’t apply a BHA & AHA together or apply a BHA + benzoyl peroxide, it is more irritating than effective.

    I've seen that Vitamin C is PH-dependent, so I wonder how much should I leave the Vitamin C on before applying my HA/toner and will the effect of Vitamin C be altered by these products?
    Also, on the discussion of mixing acids or actives, if I do an AHA/BHA mask, can I follow up with HA/toner? I'm using TO Hyaluronic Acid now and want to buy some Pyunkang Yul Essence Toner for better hydration

    Just wait 10-15 minutes after applying the Vitamin C before the HA. I honestly wouldn't worry too much about pH levels, The vast majority of products are already pH-balanced because cosmetic chemists are very aware and take extra precaution steps to ensure a balance.

    Most BHA & AHA have a pH of 3.6 but the skin typically adjusts to it within an hour and that level is actually good because the acidity stimulates the skin.

    & yes, you can follow up the BHA/AHA mask with a HA toner. I wouldn't use that TO chemical mask too often though, it's one of the most potent forms of chemical exfoliation and overuse can break the moisture barrier and cause heavy irritation.

    Thanks a lot for the help! I actually have TO Lactic Acid 5% and 2% Salicylic Acid Masque which I alternate from day to day, can't wait to get some Vitamin C and see the effects

    2022 I pray my cheeks stop getting sudden acne
    All red and puffed up and s***, lucky that I got my hands on a crazy good acne cream but my cheeks always suffer
    Niacinimide was good but think I got a bit of niacin flush whenever I used it
    Any recommendations(my skin has plenty of moisture but is dehydrated af, maybe a more hydrating routine would be the key)?
