      Heihei 👋 It is completely possible and usually safe to use Elixir Cosmeceuticals Niactil 4 % together with Shiseido Vital Perfection Overnight Firming Treatment, but there are some considerations to take: -If your skin is sensitive, you can start with only every other night with Niactil 4 % for a couple of weeks to let the barrier get used to the exfoliant. -Overlapping allergens or fragrances are present in the Shiseido cream (including lavender, citrus notes, and phenoxyethanol), be aware if you have known reactions. -If you have rosacea or very sensitive skin, proceed gradually with the salicylic acid and monitor for reactivity in the early phase. Tips for use: -Cleanse the skin and possibly use any treatments (e.g., retinoids or vitamin C) earlier in the routine. -Apply Niactil 4 % first as a light serum: niacinamide + salicylic acid contribute to a more even tone and clearer skin. -Let it absorb for a few minutes. -Finish with Shiseido Overnight Firming Treatment – this thick layer locks in moisture and active ingredients and completes the night routine. 💪Be careful with gradual introduction to avoid irritation – but in principle, they work well together, and the Shiseido cream is made to be sealed together with Niactil's active ingredients. Wishing you a nice day ahead 💓🙌
