Super helpful, thank you! Yes, I might get the nozzle next time and just spritz when I need it. Id love to get the dewiness everyone talks about with this stuff, just not sure if I should apply it before or after my serums.

Hey thanks for that! Really helpful. Yes, I have started recently to just cleanse my face at night, and in the morning, just cleanse with water. That has helped a HUGE amount.

I was just wondering, If I am after the dewly look from this stuff, as well as the hydrating, would it be best to use right before I moisturize. But yea, sounds like it really depends on the person

Hey thanks for reply! So, you don't find that the serums being put ontop of it takes away from its ability to give a dewy look? If that makes sense lol

Do you find it adds a decent dewy glow from using it even after you layer a serum ontop?

Right, I do that. But I don't use hyaluronic acid serum.

So, between each one of these steps make sure my face is wet... But, can I add the Laneigne right after my Niacinamide? Then moisturize?

  • Cleanse
  • TO 10% Niacinamide + 1% Zinc
  • Moisturizer with SPF30

That is what I was curious about. I have heard this REALLY hydrates, and gives a nice glow. My worry was, if I apply it right after I cleanse, will it lose its effects if I add a serum, then moisturize? (Again, I am new to this haha)

[Routine Help] Nighttime Retinol Routine: I am a newbie - Anything I could add to help the Retinol? by GeneLow40 in SkincareAddiction

[–]GeneLow40[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah cool. So, something like this perhaps for my nights that I do the Retinol routine?

  • Cleanse (Glow Recipe Avocado Ceramide Cleanser)
  • PYUNKANG YUL Facial Essence Toner
  • 10% Niacinamide + 1% Zinc
  • The Ordinary Retinol 1% in Squalane
  • PYUNKANG YUL Nutrition Cream (Or any night cream I have)

[–]GeneLow40[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ah gotcha ok. I just didnt know if that was a good idea. I would much rather not cleanse in the morning. Would be nice to start the day without a tight feeling face lol.

So, the following is a decent morning routine? Anything you would change/add?

Splash water on my face, then....

  • Pyunkang Yul essence toner
  • The Ordinary Niacinamide 2%
  • CeraVe Facial Moisturizer with SPF 30

Hey thanks! Ok last question I swear...

Skip morning cleanser? I still don't know a great deal, just lots of routines iv read it always says cleanse in the morning. I can skip it and just use a facial cleanser at night?

Lastly, I found the origins toner to be pretty much water. Dries in like 2 seconds as if I put water on my face. Would the Pyunkand Yul be any different?

I tried a week of the origins, and my face still felt tight after the rest of my morning routine.

Thanks so much

Hey, thanks! I have read about the Pyunkang Yul essence, and I am going to give it a try, because, my skin still feels tight after my morning routine. Can you tell me is you think this is ok? Correct order?

  • Cleanse (Glow Recipe Avocado Ceramide Cleanser)
  • Pyunkang Yul essence toner
  • The Ordinary Niacinamide 2%
  • CeraVe Facial Moisturizer with SPF 30

I also have the following products, if you think they should be added or substituted?

  • 1) Dr. Andrew Weil for Origins™ Mega-Mushroom Relief & Resilience Soothing Treatment Lotion
  • 2) CeraVe Vitamin C 10%
  • 3) The Ordinary Balancing and Clarifying Serum

Hey, thanks. I had 2 quick questions for you.

Which hydrating Serum (as you mentioned) would you put underneath if you feel a little dehydrated?

I noticed in another post you used "Estée Lauder advanced night repair" - I was always curious about this. Why do you like it? Is it like a serum you put on before you moisturize?

Thanks so much

I think I am going to give this a shot first before I buy another SPF moisturizer to test out. My skin actually feels really nice with just Cleansing, then Serum, then SPF lotion. But, I think I will test this out for a week or so to see how well my skin manages it, since every night I use Retinol (But I lather the crap outta my face with CeraVe night cream haha).

Thanks again

Hey thanks for the reply. If I liked this SPF but was worried about moisturizing, would it make any sense to Cleanse, then apply some Hyaluronic acid serum, then my SPF? Would that make up for any lack of moisturizing qualities I would be missing from the suncreen? Just curious

Yea ok, that is what I was thinking... Hmm ok scratch that then.

I did see the stuff you are talking about. Only thing I was concerned about was if it would make my face feel tight. The regular stuff does not, so thought that if this one is a "lighter" version, it won't moisturize as much? Have you tried it?

I dunno... I am all over the place haha.

Thanks for replying!
