The Ordinary's "Most Loved Set" typically includes three popular skincare products: Caffeine Solution 5% + EGCG, Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1%, and Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5. Here's how you can use each product:
1. **Caffeine Solution 5% + EGCG:** This serum is designed for the eye contour to reduce the appearance of eye contour pigmentation and puffiness. To use, apply a small amount to the eye contour area in the morning and evening, avoiding direct contact with the eyes and eyelids.
2. **Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1%:** This serum helps to reduce the appearance of skin blemishes and congestion while balancing sebum production. It can also help improve the appearance of enlarged pores, uneven skin tone, and fine lines. To use, apply a few drops to cleansed skin in the morning and evening before creams.
3. **Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5:** This serum combines hyaluronic acid with vitamin B5 to enhance hydration and promote healthy-looking skin. Hyaluronic acid helps to replenish moisture in the skin, making it appear more plump and youthful. To use, apply a few drops to damp skin after cleansing, then follow with moisturizer.
These products can be used together as part of your skincare routine. Start with the Caffeine Solution, followed by Niacinamide, and finish with Hyaluronic Acid. Always patch test new products and introduce them slowly into your routine. If you experience any irritation, discontinue use and consult with a dermatologist.
