If your vitamin C serum feels too oily, you should definitely give this a try. Be sure your face is completely dry before applying any vitamin C serums. I've been using the ascorbyl glucoside from The Ordinary for about a week now and I have to say I like it a whole lot better than their ethylated ascorbic acid. It doesn't leave an oily residue on my skin like the regular ethylated ascorbic acid does and it plays very well with my other serums.

Today we are trying out the Escargill Glucoside Solution by The Ordinary. This is supposed to be a water based vitamin C derivative serum. I've been using the regular vitamin C serum that they offer and I'm almost out. It's worked really great for brightening the skin, it just doesn't seem to play well with my other serums. It starts to pill up and it feels a little bit oily on the skin so I don't really prefer it. So I wanted to try this stuff out. It's a little bit more pricey but if it works better then it's worth the money. Look wise it's definitely more gel like than this one. This one almost kind of feels like an oil. Let's see how it feels. Just the way that it feels on my face it's definitely a lot better already just because it's not as oily. It feels more, even though it's like a gel like texture, it feels more like water. It just feels very light and nice on the skin. As far as the brightening component of it, I feel like it did exactly what the regular ethylated ascorbic acid from The Ordinary did. So it basically just comes down to preference, what you want to feel on your skin. The ethylated ascorbic acid is definitely more of an oil texture whereas the Escargill glucoside solution is more of a water jelly like texture.

This is the Ordinary Moisturizer. Because the cleanser's creaminess is gonna take me some getting used to, and the marula oil is for my hair, and to be entirely honest, I didn't get the product that I was most excited to use. They sent me something else entirely, like a peeling solution, and I have like, I can't use a peeling solution right now. So that was a little bit of a bummer, but this moisturizer was absolutely fantastic. I use another face oil made by my organic lube company actually, but this isn't an ad for that, and I could tell that this really locked everything in. So I was honestly very happy with this moisturizer. And it's a good compliment to the cleanser, which is also very creamy.

So I reordered the Ordinary Moisturizing Cream and this is the one I've been using. It's literally almost gone. But I had to restock on it because literally I live by this. Morning, night, I always, a little glow because I just put my serum on. So as I'm doing my night skin routine, I literally just massage it and just... And it's like almost no scent and you just rub it all over your face. And literally you guys, like it helped, it has helped my skin so much for the past, I've been using it for roughly a year now. And it literally, my skin, I used to have acne like up here really bad, like up my chin, on my lower face. And as I've been doing my skincare routine, it's helped me so much. So I highly recommend the Ordinary. So go get it right now.

I think the reason why I didn't have good results before is that I didn't use right products. I didn't follow, I didn't have right schedule, like right system, which I have now. I didn't moisturize because I thought that I have to dry my skin. Stop skipping moisturizer. You have to moisturize, especially if you use salicylic acids, azelaic acids, retinols, niacinamides, all this good stuff. Of course, your moisturizer has to be light. I already have a lot of stuff on my face, and on top of that, I'm gonna put sunscreen because it's important. Don't skip your sunscreen. But I think this moisturizer is one of the best I have for oily skin and as a finishing touch for my night routine after retinol.

However, she was impressed with the water-based vitamin C derivative serum. Jessica noted that the gel-like texture of the product felt light and nice on her skin, unlike the oily feel of the regular serum. She also mentioned that the brightening component of the Ascorbyl Glucoside Solution was comparable to the regular ethylated ascorbic acid from The Ordinary. Overall, Jessica concluded that the choice between the two products comes down to personal preference and the desired texture on the skin.
