    Retinol

    Why do I feel that The Ordinary 0.5% retinol is more effective than 1%? I don’t have sensitive skin and tolerate 1% retinol well, but still think 0.5% is better even though it’s weaker.

      Hi! 😊 It’s actually quite common to find that Retinol 0.5% feels more effective than 1%, even though it’s weaker on paper. A higher strength doesn’t always mean better results; it largely depends on how your skin responds to the product over time. For many, 0.5% is the perfect balance between effectiveness and tolerance, allowing the skin to work more optimally and deliver more even results. Even if the skin tolerates 1% without visible irritation, it can still feel a bit more drying or stressful for the skin, which sometimes makes the glow and skin texture not feel as good. So the most important thing isn’t always the highest percentage, but the level that your skin thrives best with 🤍 Have a great day! 🌼

    Acids

    Does Revitalift classic day cream contain direct acids? Contains so many ingredients, I don't understand what everything means. Can I use TO Gf solution with Revitalift skin cream?

      Hey Choko😊 Revitalift Classic Day Cream doesn't contain any direct acids but mainly works with moisturizing and anti-aging ingredients. You can use The Ordinary GF-Solution 15% Serum together with the day cream. The serum is milder and focuses on supporting the skin barrier, so it works well with your day cream. Hope the answer can be helpful and that you have a lovely day💫

      Hey Choko😊 Thanks for your question✨ It can go well, but it depends on your skin's tolerance and sensitivity. Ingredient-wise, it should be okay, but I suggest you try it on a small area first to see how your skin reacts to the combination of these two. Otherwise, you can use them on different days so there’s no clash if you find that your skin becomes sensitive. Don’t forget sunscreen during the day🌞 Wishing you a super nice day🍂
