REACTING TO SKINCARE TIK TOKS | THE ORDINARY SKINCARE
hey guys welcome to today’s video so today we’re going to be reacting to some more ordinary tik tok videos and since you guys like these videos so much i thought that i would create another one all right so let’s get right into today’s video now if you’ve been following me for some time you know the drill when it comes to these types of videos i will insert the video right here so that we can watch it together and also react together and when i’m looking for videos to feature on my youtube channel and i’m on the tick tock app i’m looking for videos of people actually talking through the video telling me how they’re using the products and explaining what they’re doing a lot of the times on tick tock or even on instagram for that matter there’s a lot of music playing the people aren’t talking through it and i find it very hard to feature videos like that so if you are on the tick tock app and you see videos that you would like me to react to then just hashtag my name on the tick tock app and i will see it that way or you can just let me know on my youtube channel and then i can grab the video and feature it on my videos so let’s get right into the first video it’s super honest review of the ordinary i think this is a good cleansing balm but i prefer to use a liquid oil to take off my makeup me too i just feel like you need a lot of this product for it to work yeah this one gets so much hype and honestly i didn’t notice any difference with my skin okay maybe i need to use it longer but i definitely won’t be repurchasing right now and this is my favorite so it’s definitely not a thick oil but it absorbs really well i’d repurchase this yeah yes so i agree with her when it comes to the squealing cleanser i don’t like to use that cleanser to remove my makeup as well as my sunscreen i do like to go in with an oil cleanser to do all that and then i rinse my skin off and then i go in with my double cleanse and then i’ll use the squalene cleanser or some other type of cleanser and i feel like you do need a fair amount of product when it comes to the squealing cleanser and that’s why i like to use it as my double cleanse i do feel like it’s pretty wasteful if you are using it to remove your makeup and then you go in with a double cleanse because you do need a lot of product to get a good lather on the skin now when it comes to the nice cinnamon she says she didn’t really see a difference and everyone’s skin is different you may see changes in your skin and you may not i personally really love niacinamide and i do see results with it and that’s why i’m always recommending it to you guys but everybody has their own preferences and you may see results and other people may not see results so it just depends on your skin and then of course the squalene is a fabulous product it’s very hydrating and i love to incorporate this into my skincare routine as well hi so i’m kind of late but i just got my ordinary face mask or whatever and i was really aggressive just woke up girl now you download face mask and i’m gonna try it my skins she’s kind of just chilling right now she’s not not as bad as she usually is but we’re still gonna try it okay so it’s very red okay and i’m gonna apply it off camera but you want to make sure that the dropper doesn’t touch your face because that’s correct yes absolutely it doesn’t smell good but that’s okay so i’m done putting it on so i’m gonna rub it in so there’s another thing enough because i feel like it looked different on other people but you only leave it all pretending that she has enough that’s all i really show you and you don’t use it once a week so this is me after using it her skin looks good nothing crazy you know her skin looks really good okay so the amount that she had on her face is okay i probably would have applied a little less than that because all you need is a thin layer across the skin almost to the point where your skin looks pink when you rub it into your skin her skin looked pretty red because she did apply quite a bit of the product and you really don’t need to it’s not necessary to so just keep it thin and just do a thin layer and then of course she said that you can only use it once a week of course if your skin is only able to use it once a week then yes definitely only once a week but you can use this up to two times per week leaving several days in between each use okay she’s so cute so first i use a serum facial cleanser okay i’m still figuring everything out but when i wear makeup i take it off so cute i’m going to run stuff with a clean towel because why would you do it dirty like again i’m still figuring everything out but i take this ordinary this one um i don’t let the chocolate touch it and i only put it on like every other day or not like you know what i mean like three times a week oh then i put the crb daily moisturizer on okay not bad every day both of these close my face um so yeah and then um i’ll leave it back there’s oh my god she is absolutely adorable now i’m not sure how old she is she definitely looks like she’s around maybe six or seven years old but kids these days i don’t even know anymore i mean she could be older than that i have no idea but for someone this age i definitely wouldn’t suggest using the aha plus bha peeling solution this is a high potency chemical exfoliant and i wouldn’t think that this is made for kids at this age i really don’t this product or any acid for that matter should be used by a professional by experienced people who know what they’re doing that understand what these acids can do to the skin and of course for the skin now i think she’s very young to understand exactly how strong this product is and i’m really hoping that her parents and her guardians know exactly what this product is as well which i’m sure they probably do but i personally wouldn’t recommend this to young kids at that age i really wouldn’t and if you go to the ordinary website they actually don’t say an age restriction on there they actually don’t say when someone should use this product at a certain age and again this should be used by professionals and by people who know what they’re doing i even contacted the ordinary and i asked them this question as well and they said as long as people know what this product is and they are experienced with acids then one should use the product carefully but again i think she is way too young her skin is perfect it’s like porcelain she doesn’t need to use any acids on her skin whatsoever but her serum products are pretty good i can’t say anything bad about that and as long as she’s using the crv products then she is good to go this peel twice a week yup this acid twice a day this year twice a day this oil at bedtime yes perfect on point love it everything is perfect there i don’t have to say anything more so today i got the ordinary brand skincare line and i’m going to try it out for you guys so first i’m going to start with cleansing my skin with the swelling cleanser retails at seven dollars and ninety cents it’s soap free it’s recommended for all skin types it cleans love how gentle she is cruelty free and vegan next i’m gonna go in with the aha 30 plus bha 2 peeling solution this exfoliating facial you leave on for 10 minutes it targets dullness it deeply exfoliates and improves skin texture and radiance next i’m going to take my rosehip seed oil which retails at 9.
80 this moisturizes my skin and provides anti-aging benefits and finally i’m going to go in with my 0.5 retinol which retails at 5.80 which refines skin texture and provides anti-aging i’m going to use my dior prestige applicators that i chill in a stolen soy sauce container and there you go that’s it okay not too bad she did use the hd plus bh peeling solution and she also used a retinol product these two products should not be mixed together and they should be used on separate routines on separate nights of the week so with the peeling solution this should be used one or two times a week leaving several days in between and then the nights that she’s not using the peeling solution then of course she can go in with the retinol product now she did apply the rosehip seed oil before the retinol the ordinary actually says to apply retinol or retinoids before oils and creams so she should apply the retinol before the oil for better absorption as well you want to make sure that that high potency product like a retinol is laid down first so that it can seep into the skin and do its job and then of course put the hydrating products on on top which would be an oil and a moisturizer so as long as she keeps those two high strength products separate and she applies the retinol before the oil then her routine would be on point hey guys my name is leah and today i went to ulta and i found the ordinary skincare brand that tiktok was hyping over so of course i bought three um i looked at it and it said that like it will damage your skin so i’m kind of scared but uh we’re gonna do it anyway this is me taking my makeup off because i don’t like white makeup yeah and i dropped it and it shattered literally everywhere you can see the pain in my eyes just kidding i put it on my face and it looked a lot like blood like it was the dropper looked then i put the tuna on uh it also said like easily sun damage for your skin so it kind of concerned me but i still put it on and this is the blemish control serum which i think is supposed to act as a moisturizer but i just put my lotion on too and then i topped it off with some chapstick and i was done okay so there’s a few things that i don’t like about this and i’m sure if you’ve been following me for some time you know exactly what i’m gonna say the makeup wipes i’m not a big fan of makeup wipes these can be very harsh to the skin sometimes these makeup wipes aren’t even saturated and they’re very dry and you’re really tugging away at your skin and i wouldn’t recommend it i would recommend using a cleansing oil or i would use a cleanser or micellar water something that is more gentle than a makeup wipe she then went in with the peeling solution which was good i didn’t like how she was touching her face with the dropper that’s a no-no and then she went in with the glycolic acid toner which is also a no-no you don’t want to be using these two together because this can be very harsh on the skin and it can make your skin a lot more sensitive especially to the sun and that’s why she said that this could cause sun damage yes it definitely can so that’s why you definitely need to make sure that you’re wearing an spf all the time so keep your acids separate from the peeling solution the nights that you’re not using the peeling solution then of course you can go in with the glycolic acid toner try to not use these two together and then she went in with the niacinamide which is good you can do that with acids but don’t touch your face with a dropper it’s really important that you guys don’t do this because you’re contaminating the product by touching your face and putting it back in the dropper and you’re going to change the whole formulation of the product and then it’s not going to be useful so try to apply all of these serums and everything on your hand and then apply it to your skin that way yo it’s day three of using the peeling ordinary mask basically you have to do your skincare routine before using this so this face mask goes last so i have on my narvina i’m doing my regular skincare routine when i say day three technically i mean week two because every week i use it two days like in a week okay yeah i use it more than twice a week okay so it’s time okay it’s on and it’s just really bad a little bit too much i’m gonna take it off in 10 minutes with this lukewarm water my fat is doing making food it looks delicious now apply regular routine and moisturizer her skin looks really good okay so i’m not sure what her remaining products were in her skincare routine but i will talk about what i’ve seen in this video so she did say to do your skincare routine first prior to the peeling solution and then the peeling solution goes last and then she had some sort of noxzema cream on her face i’m not sure really what she was doing there because you don’t need to do your skincare routine first and then apply the peeling solution and then rinse it off and then reapply your products again you don’t need to do that as long as you’ve cleansed your skin and you’ve dried your face completely you then go in with the peeling solution leave it on for 10 minutes or less rinse off and then go in with your normal skin care routine so you don’t need to apply all different kinds of products beforehand and then the peeling solution afterwards i mean that’s how i understood this video so i’m really hoping that she’s still not doing that because it’s not necessary you’re wasting products that way it’s just a waste of time but her skin looked really nice she did put a little bit too much of the peeling solution did you see how red her face was she just put way too much of the liquid and all you need is a thin layer where your skin looks pink and that’s the perfect amount to have on your skin so that would be my recommendation to her but other than that her skin looks really nice so i’m going to share one more video today i want to talk about my nighttime skincare i start off by washing my face with foreo and survey foam cleanser me too next step is niacinamide by the ordinary now this stuff is not mandatory i also replace it with lactic acid hyaluronic acid retinol depending on how my skin feels at the moment okay yeah next up is moisturizing cream by slime i personally love this cream it’s very rich in texture and it’s recommended by many dermatologists now for my final act is kia’s midnight recovery i always put oil on top of moisturizer because oil doesn’t actually hydrate your skin and only locks in the moisture from the moisturizing cream last but not least is my aquaphor healing oil love it on my lips cuts are burnt and that concludes my nighttime skincare routine hope you enjoyed her skin looks fabulous so her skincare routine is literally on point i don’t have anything bad to say about this there are a lot of people that like to apply oils on top of their face moisturizer and that’s completely fine for me personally i do like to do it the other way around only because i experience peeling a lot when i apply oil on top of my moisturizer so i always like to put my oil before my moisturizer but that’s what i do you guys don’t need to do that you guys can apply the oil on top of the moisturizer and that’s fine too that works great and this is a great skincare routine and i love it so that is everything in today’s video and i really hope that you found it helpful i will be doing more videos like this in the near future so if you do see any videos on tick tock or on instagram and you would like me to react to them please let me know and i will do a reaction video on those videos so as always thank you so much for watching i really do appreciate it and of course i will see you all in my next video so take care and i’ll see you guys then bye guys
