Talita, what can I mix and what shouldn't I mix? Hellloooo my people, my peeps! How are you?
You already asked me for this video once and on the other day we spoke about this on Instagram and people asked me about this again. Talita, what can I mix, what shouldn't I mix? There are 3 basic points that you need to know before we start talking about what can and what can't be mixed.
If you already like this channel, subscribe so that you can be part of the team "People, Peeps" The first thing is that usually the products that shouln't be mixed are "ACTIVES" and what are "actives"? They are products that promote changes in your skin. It can be lightening, rejuvenating, it promotes something other than just moistuirizing If you never used a product (Everyone has used a product) If you never used an "Active" The first tip is: I recommend you to start with only one.
After one, two, three months using that same product you can then move to another "active". Make it in steps. The second tip is: use moistuirizer.
Dr skin, oiled skin, mixed skin. . .
. SKIN No skin moisturization, no protection. The third tip is, but this is not really a tip, in case you have already seen this mixture that I will talk about avoid mixing this or that, don't mix this product with that other, and you have a product that has this mixture, don't worry.
This product was already planned this way. If you have or already had acne, you most likely already heard of the benzoyl peroxide (that name is very not very simple, I agree) Benzoyl peroxide helps to clean our skin he is a powerful anti-inflammatory. It promotes there a cleaning of your pore ensuring that you no longer have the acne bacteria there and often he works oxidizing but added benzoyl peroxide to retinoic acid Everyone loves this product Aged skin like them even more Are you telling me I am old Talita?
Mature, not old! You have no idea what is the retinoic acid A new person is born. .
. . Do you know that Parakeet from Harry Potter, that is born from the ashes?
That's what we do! Tells me I am old. Puff.
. . Old pans do good food (literal translation of a brazilian popular proverb) But yes, usually the older / mature skin handles the retinoic acid better because he's a potent exfoliant it helps you have the removal of a more external skin reaches deeper areas and is a product for anti-aging, wrinkles, expression lines.
. . once that in research they explain that these two (benzoyl peroxide + retinoic acid) are unstable together so it is usually not recommended to mix the benzoyl peroxide with the retinoic acid in a skincare routine.
Moreover as I told you the benzoyl peroxide oxidize (remember? ) you can't put it with an antioxidant or it doesn't make sense to put it with an antioxidant, which could be what? the wonderful "Vitamin C"!
we simply love it we have her here in the canal and the "Vitamin C" also helps to renew your skin she helps a lot with your skin brightness, the collagen stimulus. She is very similar to the "Retinoic Acid" but she is much gentler. But "Vitamin C" or "Ascorbic Acid" is an antioxidant so we don't mix it with an oxidizer that would be the "Benzoyl Peroxide".
Now talking about the "Retinoic acid" our "Vitamin A" That we mentioned earlier Right Acinoic? With this acid we need to be careful because he's a little bit more aggressive, therefore if you mix it up with other acids we have a tendency to hypersensitize our skin, then this already leads us to know that "Retinoic Acid" ("Vitamin A") mixed with AHA which is a family of acids (Alpha Hydroxy Acids), you may have heard of it if you have already done a little more research on acids. Alpha Hydroxy A cids generally are the Tartaric, Mandellic, Lactic, Lycolic acids and (I think I forgot one) Citric acid They are all exfoliants.
Let me take a look at my cheating paper. Did I forget some? No, I spoke about all of them.
These acids, the Alpha Hydroxy Acids, they open the way, they make this exfoliation which it promotes it is the famous chemical peeling ok guys? We already spoke about peeling here in the channel CARD The chemical peeling opens up space will do a removal and this one in particular is practically the one that is there in the hard-working front line and makes it happen so he opens the barriers for us to bring other actives. BUT Retinoic acid is quite aggressive.
It is already an exfoliant so there's no need for Us to perform a hyper exfoliation in our skin We also have in a family of acids known as BHA or beta-hydroxy acids but we already know the famous "Salicylic Acid". We have Sally here in our channel, right Sally? Hello guys?
What's up? ? ?
Fear. I don't know if I'm scared of auntie Acinoic, but it is more like being alone with her. .
. In case you don't know these characters they are already here in the channel it is very important that you remember that the "Salicylic Acid" is a secative you can find it in soap, exfolliant, serums and so on. It is highly recommended for oily skins, acneic skin.
It helps on the control of oiliness and maintain our skin a little bit dryer. So oily skin usually love it, but this "Beta-Hydroxy Acid" mixed with "Retinoic Acid" may sensitize your skin again because the "Retinoic Acid" already does a mild "dryness" in your skin is a little bit more aggressive therefore the two of them together can leave our skin a little bit more sensitized Now returning to our "Vitamin C", everyone loves it, let's talk about mixing it with "Retinoic Acid" and this is highly recommended by dermatologists, ok? This combination of "Retinoic Acids" and "Vitamin C" and yes that combination may work, but she can also go very wrong.
We could have a problem leaving our skin more sensitive since the two make a kind of exfoliation, they can leave your skin more exposed but I would recommend using "Vitamin C" during the day since it also helps you protect from the sun or protect from the solar rays with sun filter. The "Retinoic Acid" at night since it sensitizes the skin and shouldn't be used during the day If you watched our video with Acinoic, Sally, and everyone else The Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) with the Beta-Hydroxy Acid (BHA) can be an interesting combination, as incredible as it sounds. We seem to be talking about many acids There are some quite common mixtures in some cosmetics Like the "Glycolic Acid", for example, with Salicylic or Mandelic You will find this mixture, then only to remember AHA alpha-hydroxyacids are the exfolliant acids which open the skin and help its renewal but also helping to permeate more products then the combination of you using this with the beta-hydroxy acid, allows you to go a little deeper clean up and improve the "work" of your Beta-Hydroxy Acid But it's important for you to be more careful because this can lead you to a slight sensitized skin, but this combination works!
The combination AHA alpha-hydroxy acids and the "Vitamin C", there are also blends out there you've got to be more careful you can mix but you have to have a skin more resistant if you have a skin more sensitive most likely your skin is not gonna like this mix very much So this is already the first point. If you want to make that use and they both are not so powerful then both the acids Glycolic or Mandelic or Tartaric if they're not as strong and your "Vitamin C" is also gentler, the combination will work well for us too One option is also to check the "Vitamin C" combination with "Niacinamide" "Vitamin B3" I have a love for her like this, gigantic and the "Niacinamide" is a powerful lightener and renovator too It helps to keep your skin repaired and is a good repairer, this is a better word to describe it. It helps with spots both from acne and also from melasma There is an impressive research in relation to melasma with "Niacinamide" I'm still going to make a video about "Niacinamide" for you, I promise.
But "Vitamin C" added to "Niacinamide" (Vitamin B3) is wonderful. The glow of your skin stays impressive is a booster indeed but there are some research there that create some controversies. They claim that this combination is not so good other research say that it works well.
. . .
Now the combination of "Vitamin C" with Sunscreen They help a lot in your protection against solar rays if you use "Vitamin C" before the sunscreen, it can help to prolong the protection and it still acts as antioxidant Oxidants, everyone far. They can't reach us. No wrinkles here!
This is the propaganda that they're gonna make, you know, when they are together. Now if you you want to mix any of these actives that I said with moisturiser products, repairers, soothing they are all normally geared towards soothing your skin more hydrated, like I said for you at the beginning if use moisturizer you will most likely get a better performance of those products and comment what more are wanting to know what video you want us to have here on the channel Guys, if you like this channel then you could subscribe right?
