Thank you for this presentation. After a visit with my doctor this morning, when he commented on a dark yellow-ish patch on my neck, I wondered if I might be using my CeraVe Vitamin C Serum incorrectly. YES! So, now I will be following your advice, Melissa. Again, thanks so much!

Hello Melissa, I just wanted to thank you for your skincare posts. Even though I'm over 50, I'm new to skincare routines and your videos are my go to. You explain everything clearly and concisely making it's so easy to follow. My chosen products have been, e.l.f. But I moved on to The Ordinary, then I tried Cerave which I love. So I was delighted to find you covered Cerave also! Thank you again for your help along the way. Best wishes!

A very informative video as always Melissa! You just addressed all my concerns! I think I'm going to apply Vitamin C at night as suggested and switch Niacinamide for the morning.

Thank you Melissa this video is very helpful and gonna start using the vitamin c serum tomorrow Thank you so much for this video.

[NandineeM]

Thank you for this video! It was super helpful, I wanted to ask where in my routine would I add the vitamin C. I use the ordinary Niacinamide and hylaronic acid every night and day. But I don’t know if I could include vitamin C into the routine, and how. I hope you can help me out!

Can the vitamin c serum be used after T.O mandelic acid?
Is it best to avoid panoxyl 4% when/if combining these two products?
Routine looks like this:
AM:
Panoxyl 4% cleanser
Snail mucin
T.O Alpha arbutin
Dermtlgy acne serum (benzyl 5%)
La roche tinted spf 50
PM:
La roche foaming cleanser
Panoxyl 4% cleanser
Snail mucin
Alpha arbutin
Mandelic acid
Vitamin c
Alternate PMs:
Panoxyl cleanser
Snail mucin
Alpha arbutin
Drmtlgy acne serum
Spf
Am I using panoxyl too much? When first started using was no issue, but now feeling slight irritated and breakouts forming. I also was prescribed clindamycin, but didnt help much and dont know where to add in routine if i should
Ty so much in advance! Your channel is soo helpful and informative!

[aamnahussainbaloch]

Hey, kindly suggest me that when should I use CeraVe vitamin C serum and when should I use Ordinary Alpha arbutin? I’m confused… And is it compulsory to use moisturiser after using Vitamin C serum?

[isratjahan-jitw]

Hi Dear, Can I use CeraVe Skin Renewing Vitamin C Serum with Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 in the morning?

[kisskamm]

[planetjupiter]

Hi Melissa! is it okay to use Ordinary moisture cream after CeraVe Vit C?

[janleobertsarabia]

Hi Melissa can I apply this product on my lips that is hyperpigmented?

[braaaj]

Very informative indeed. I use the Aveeno foaming cleanser( with salicylic acid) and the Cerave vitamin C serum. Are those 2 safe to use together? Also, I just bought the ordinary Niacinamide 10% because I heard it does wonder. When should I apply it, should I mix it with both of those 2 products listed above or use Niacinamide separately (PM) and the others in the AM?

[Rbinamuh]

Should I use vitamin C before resurfacing retanol or after? (for dry face )

[harubokai]

We can use a hyaluronic acid sérum before or after the vitamin c serum ?

[hinzamalik]

Hi Melissa, i bought this cera ve vit c serum
I opened it the same day i bought it, and the color of this serum is not cloudy white as shown in many videos on YouTube
Mine was a little yellowish (not much just a little bit)
I'm really worried about it 😔
Kindly tell me is it effective to use?
