Ellanie, you can use Superoxide Dismutase either morning or evening after cleansing. MMHA morning and/or evening before moisturiser. And. mix Photography Fluid with your foundation.

Hi Gio! In addition, right now, my face doesn’t that have much acne, only few bumps here and there, my main concern are the marks (hyperpigmentation?? / brownish marks) left by my acne.. So I don’t know if I should follow the routine for acne prone skin since maybe 3 months ago, i really have a lot of acne. Or should i follow the oily routine or dry since my face is a less oiler than before (eh, see how im confused, sorry)

I also saw in your shop that azelaic acid is one of the best ingredient / product for hyperpigmentation. Can you tell me how to incorporate this also on the routine?

It is so confusing to pick what products should be your priority if many deals with what you are experiencing.. Please enlighten me.. Thank you once again Gio!! Your blog is my everyday read and guide!! Im so happy i found you!

Thanks for sharing your routine, it is really a guide 🙂 Some questions though, hope you can enlighten me:

For AM routine, my current routine is:
– after shower, cleanse face with plush micellar water with sweet orange tangerine and hyaluronic acid
– Plush Triple Hyal Face Acne Solution 23H (this one is like a light weight cream that really helps me with my acne)
– Plush Extreme Comfort Cream SPF50

I want to incorporate the Serum your are using which is the Vitamin C , E and Ferulic serum, and the AHA exfoliant and a moisturizer with niacinamide. Since before retinol, I have oily skin, but somehow the oiliness lessen. Here are some of my question, for the new AM routine I am planning:

1) after using retinol, is my skin still consider oily skin? Should I still use AHA or switch it to BHA as my exfoliant?
2) For the AM routine the moisturizer you use is Olay with niacinamide in it, but I read and heard that Vit C will not work well with Niacinamide, and your serum has vitamin c in it.. will it be ok ? How do you put it, do you apply the moisturizer after some time applying the serum?
3) Can I still apply a moisturizer with niacinamide eventhough I am using an cream with hyaluronic acid for my acne solution?

PM Routine:
– cleanse face with plush micellar water with sweet orange tangerine and hyaluronic acid
– (Tue and Sat) apply plush .1% retinol for an hour, then cleanse again with micellar water
– for moisturizer, I used plush intensive lifting / reconstruction salmon oil probiotic marine collagen

My question for my PM routine is:
1) For the PM routine, do you use also the antioxidant serum before the retinol cream?
2) For the nights I am not using retinol cream, can I used a serum also, like Niaminacide and Hyaluronic Acid, since there are really some PIH that I want to lighten and at the same time I want to boost up my skin hydration? Or would it be too much for my skin since I am planning to use antioxidant serum in the morning?

Sorry for so much questions! Hope you can enlighten me, plssss.

Thanks again for all the wonderful articles you share with us!

Sofia, yes the skin around your eyes is thinner but the ingredients that moisturise skin/fight wrinkles /whatever are the same for the face and eye. So it’s about finding a facial moisturiser that’s thin enough for the eye area.

The toning lotion is also important because it helps balancing the pH of the skin.
