Amino Acids + B5

And my personal winner for #bestskincare2021 is... The Ordinary Amino Acids + B5! 🎉 I discovered this product this summer when I was looking for something to relieve my extremely dry skin. I already have dry skin anyway, but I used zinc oxide-based sunscreen every day, which is a very good sunblock, but also sucks all the life out of your skin! 😓 Earlier, I wrote about 100% plant-derived squalane from The Ordinary, which I'm a huge fan of, but that couldn't compete with the zinc oxide. My face felt tight and tight, like I had taken a hot shower and didn't apply any cream. Amino acids + B5 is a hydration boost and it really works 💦 I use it before applying squalane and kept using the sunscreen, but it stopped making my skin so dry and tight. Furthermore, it is also very nice to use. It is quite watery so it absorbs quickly and has no smell. My skin did become warm and slightly red in the beginning when I started using Amino Acids, but I don't have that anymore. It probably just took some getting used to, because it is a powerful product. It is now part of my daily routine and has improved the condition of my skin so much. Every year when it gets colder and the stove comes back on, I get chapped skin (my face, lips, legs, everywhere). Even now, I have extremely dry hands and chapped lips again. But guess where I'm not bothered 😁 My face is hydrated like never before, what an amazing serum this is! 🥇

One of my favorite products. I've been suffering from acne for about 12 years and often used too aggressive products. Last few months I've tried more to calm my skin and my acne complaints have improved so much! The ordinary amino acids soothes and softens the skin and causes wounds to heal faster. So I always have a bottle in my house!

I am surprised that this product is not as popular as some of the Ordinary products. This product is really great if you're looking for a natural glow. I use it in the evening and in the morning and it makes my skin look glowy, fresh and smooth. You only need a little bit and the potty will last a very long time and the price is also very advantageous. I have to tell you that I have dry skin myself. I don't know if this is a perfect product for you if you have more oily skin, but I don't think it does much harm either, moisturizing is always good of course.
