Yes.
If you have dry skin, follow the ampoules with a suitable moisturizer to help maintain skin hydration.

Stop using the product if significant irritation occurs.
14. Can teenagers use YIMYIM skincare?
Skincare needs vary by age and skin condition. Teenagers should generally keep their routine simple and avoid unnecessarily strong active combinations.
For younger users, parental/dermatological guidance is recommended when introducing active skincare.
RESULTS FAQs
15. How long does it take to see results?
Skincare results vary from person to person.
Factors such as skin type, consistency, existing skin concerns and overall routine can influence results.
Instead of promising a fixed number of days, we recommend consistent use over time and focusing on gradual improvements in the appearance of your skin.

No cosmetic product should promise permanent removal of pigmentation.
The YIMYIM ampoules are designed to help improve the appearance of uneven tone, dark-looking spots and post-acne marks with consistent use.
Individual results vary.
17. Can I expect overnight results?
No.
Skincare is generally a process of consistent care rather than an overnight transformation.
Your routine. Your pace. Your glow.
