Overwhelming to say the least! I know I’m doing stuff wrong currently. I have post part in acne and have had what I think are closed comedomes (small bumps that aren’t milia on my forehead and now most of my face). I know I need to do something and change it up but I don’t have the patience to figure out what is making my skin frea, nor risk trying new stuff and more breakouts. I like the price points tho<br /> Oh and I feel down The Ordinary/skin care reddit rabbit hole last night. Ugh. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-ordinary-skincare#post-2806701 Wed, 28 Feb 2018 11:57:50 +0000 Mommy Finger 2806701@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaBear87: I was thinking the same thing but honestly, it takes like 30 seconds to do it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-ordinary-skincare#post-2806698 Wed, 28 Feb 2018 11:49:01 +0000 MamaBear87 2806698@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mommy Finger: maybe this is just too complicated for me 😂 anything that involves like 7 things on your face seems like I will never do it </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-ordinary-skincare#post-2806695 Wed, 28 Feb 2018 11:42:21 +0000 Mommy Finger 2806695@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaBear87: I think I was looking for tips too! I literally just bought a bunch of stuff and tried to mash together a routine based on their suggested routines on the website and this web post: <a href="https://detailorientedbeauty.com/2017/06/29/the-ordinary-a-recommended-routine-for-every-skin-type/" rel="nofollow">https://detailorientedbeauty.com/2017/06/29/the-ordinary-a-recommended-routine-for-every-skin-type/</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-ordinary-skincare#post-2806666 Wed, 28 Feb 2018 09:57:46 +0000 MamaBear87 2806666@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm hunting new moisturizer and face wash and clicked over thinking oh maybe this will be good. But after reading I've got zero idea what I would even want to buy 😂😂😂<br /> Anyone care to give me a newbie lesson? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-ordinary-skincare#post-2806654 Wed, 28 Feb 2018 09:26:30 +0000 Mommy Finger 2806654@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. High Heels: Yikes! I had no idea! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-ordinary-skincare#post-2806643 Wed, 28 Feb 2018 01:49:33 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 2806643@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love The Ordinary's concept - quality skincare at affordable prices, but I've been hearing a lot about QC issues as of late probably because of all the chaos going on behind the scenes.</p> <p>Lots of drama going on with Deciem (parent company of The Ordinary) right now - the CEO recently fired the co-CEO and the CFO resigned all in the last week.</p> <p><a href="https://www.refinery29.com/2018/02/190719/deciem-brandon-truaxe-drama" rel="nofollow">https://www.refinery29.com/2018/02/190719/deciem-brandon-truaxe-drama</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/SkincareAddiction/comments/803a3b/psa_regarding_the_ordinarydeciem/" rel="nofollow">https://www.reddit.com/r/SkincareAddiction/comments/803a3b/psa_regarding_the_ordinarydeciem/</a></p> <p>That said, their products have been hit or miss for me! I like their niacinamde + zinc, and I also like their granactive retinoid in squalane. The prices have made it easy to experiment with no major loss. And they have a 365 day return policy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-ordinary-skincare#post-2806606 Tue, 27 Feb 2018 17:54:25 +0000 peaches1038 2806606@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I’ve been watching some YouTube videos but I’m still overwhelmed! I am definitely a skin care newbie. I just started using whamisa’s double rich toner and lotion, but that’s all use on my skin other than sunscreen. Before that, I barely even washed my face 😬😳😬😳 any tips or product recs for a beginner? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-ordinary-skincare#post-2806595 Tue, 27 Feb 2018 16:24:33 +0000 gingerbebe 2806595@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I really like it, but my favorite thing has been their foundation.<br /> The light coverage one actually is VERY good coverage, but sheer and natural looking. I like using the rosehip seed oil at night. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-ordinary-skincare#post-2806593 Tue, 27 Feb 2018 16:15:01 +0000 AB810 2806593@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love it! My skin has improved a lot and I no longer break out around my period. I found the facebook group deceim enthusiasts very helpful in creating a routine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-ordinary-skincare#post-2806361 Mon, 26 Feb 2018 16:02:08 +0000 Miss Flamingo 2806361@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mommy Finger: I tried it based on the recommendation of a friend who is much more high maintenance than me and she loves it too! I feel that adds to its credibility. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-ordinary-skincare#post-2806357 Mon, 26 Feb 2018 15:55:35 +0000 Mommy Finger 2806357@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Miss Flamingo: Same as you that I never really had a routine before so I can't tell if it's just that good or if I was just so bad at taking care of my skin so anything is better! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-ordinary-skincare#post-2806335 Mon, 26 Feb 2018 14:59:04 +0000 Miss Flamingo 2806335@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just started using their stuff &gt;3 months ago and I really like it. But to be fair, I had no skincare routine before. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-ordinary-skincare#post-2806328 Mon, 26 Feb 2018 14:44:38 +0000 Mommy Finger 2806328@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Anyone use products by The Ordinary? I just heard about them and ordered a bunch of stuff (so cheap!) but wanted to hear about other people who use these products and what your routine is. Love/hate it?</p> <p><a href="http://theordinary.com/" rel="nofollow">http://theordinary.com/</a> </p>
