It might be the pineapple serum that's irritating your skin. Some people don't have issues with citrus, but for a lot of people, the acidity can be irritating. You could replace it with a serum that's just straight-up vitamin c, because that would help with texture and tone! Just make certain it doesn't have any pineapple, orange, or lemon extract.
i was gonna say the same. cuz some reactions can show up later even if she’s used that serum before and it didn’t break her out it could be doing it now
I used to get those little bumps when I had my bangs over my forehead. The glycolic acid toner by The Ordinary completely changed my skin texture, it's life changing 🙌🏼
@l I think it's pretty gentle, it's never irritated my skin even when it's not at its best. Pixi also has a glycolic acid toner but in a lower concentration, that one also may work.
I came here to write this exact comment... I used to have soo many milia and closed comedones i looked like a popcorn ceiling but i used the ordinary's glycolic acid for probably a month and three years later i still have zero texture and never even break out anymore. seriously a game changer and super cool bc you see such drastic progress so quickly
@@user-ce3rf2qr7v i have really sensitive skin and it did sting to use for the first week or two but after that it didn't hurt at all.it's pretty normal for glycolic acid products to hurt at first but lower concentrations can help if it's an issue. another thing is it makes your skin very sensitive to sunlight so only ever apply it at night unless you're inside all day or slathering on sunscreen
Funny enough, "bad things" happening in life come in threes. Or so they say. I hope all three "bad events" have passed and you can start thriving into the new week.
So with your skin care you want to apply the hyloronic acid while your face is wet, so after cleaning add a nice hydrating toner (that might have hyloronic acid so maybe you could skip the serum if you would like) or just water, then your hyloronic acid serum. For the bumps I recommend a Niacinamide serum after the hyloronic acid (this can also be the beginning steps to your night skin care),then the vitamin c, your moisturizer, and then the most important, a good SPF 50. Also for the bumps/ texture, at night time you could get a stronger retinoid product or use an aha bha serum instead of the retinoid on some nights. Just switching between the two, never using them the same night. Maybe give your face a break once or twice a week and just use the hyloronic acid, Niacinamide, and your moisturizer at night. That might help.
i really love you and your videos, even though I'm never using makeup. idk, you just seem like such a lovely person and your videos always make my day and help me to feel better about myself. also love every single hair color on you, it just looks so good o you. i just want you to know that i love your channel, it's like a safe place to me. thank you so much.💙
I used to get sooo many little bumps all over my face and the more stuff I would put on it to try and help, the worse they got. I learned my lesson on "less is better." I wash with cerave hydrating cleanser once a day instead of twice like I used to. Moisturize with cerave hydrating moisturizer and occasionally I will use organic witch hazel as a toner. Everyone's skin is different though!
I struggled with texture and the odd little bumps on my forehead for a few months ago (I believe they were comedones, so never actual spots just little bumps) and I started to use the smoothing cleanser from Cerave and it worked wonders for it, helps with other texture too and just smoothes out the skin and helped with any actual spots that I had. I used it in conjunction with the CBD face cream from The Body shop, which is aimed at stressed skin, rather than acne prone skin. Love this haircut and final makeup look it’s so cute , happy to see you posting again 💕
Im an esthetician! I do like certain products in glow recipe, but that mask not my favorite, I feel like it’s not as strong and has too many other additives that could irritate. I would use the Paula’s Choice Retinol, Bakuchiol treatment with peptides and vitamin c. Bakuchiol is a natural retinol in addiction to the retinol, plus vitamin c which help brightens and tightens the skin as well as making is even and smooth, then you’ve also got peptides which help smooth but also restore the skin. And then as for moisturizer I would use The Inkey List Peptide moisturizer, it’s thick and very hydrating but also light enough for makeup. And those peptides will restore the skins natural moisture.
my texture started changing once i got better about moisturizing and drinking water. i don't drink a ton of water, just more than i did before which was almost nothing. i also don't wait to put on my moisturizer. pat dry just a bit and immediately apply my lotion (i have always used my body lotion on my face), then apply more later if it feels dry or if i am not gonna use sunscreen
I actually loved that u zoomed in like that, it made it really... cinematic?? I just like it ! 😩💕 and btw this hair colour looks BOMB on you, just like any colour !
those bumps are called milia and its just keratin trapped under the skin :) staying on top of exfoliating/using products with bhas and ahas should help!
so glad i found your channel. i love scottish and irish accents, for one, but i also love your personality, and somehow you're making me feel okay just being me.
YOUR HAIR LOOKS SO GOOD!! What is that cut called? It’s so cute 🤩 As for skincare advice, I would advise to use more gentle products. Glow recipe contains a lot of fragrance, which can be irritating. I would recommend a basic, fragrance free cleanser & moisturizer. Vanicream is a great brand for both of those things. Clinique dramatically different moisturizing lotion is also great, but if you like something thicker, I would recommend Vanicream moisturizing cream or cetaphil moisturizing cream. I hope this helps!!
The texture kind of looks like it could be that your skins congested and the fix might be as simple as drinking more water or if you’ve recently changed something in your diet. It could also be one of the skincare products you use, especially if they’re ones you’ve started using recently. Hope that helps a little!
You should try doing henna freckles. Literally nobody knows that my freckles aren’t real and the nice thing is that they don’t rub off… I just have a ritual where i put them on once or twice a week and let them set for an hour or so, they start of kinda intense and then fade out gradually but they always look natural
i love seeing whenever you update! i really liked the last video with the clothes and putting outfits together. thinking now i think that was because of an sponsor but it was really fun to see either way! your style is super cute
It's summer in the southern hemisfere and I'm hiding from the sun like a vampire. Gloomy days are so good, I'd love to visit Scotland one day, guess we always want what we don't have jkjjkkk
I have the plum moisturiser from glow recipe I can’t remember the exact name but it’s the purple tub. I use that for night time it’s a lot thicker and really hydrating!
I got spots and cheek pimples when I was using that banana cream. I just stopped everything (I had a peach slices snail toner, a facetheory niacinamide serum, and a cerave am sunscreen moisturizer I was using) and only use the aveeno gentle feverfew cleanser and makeup remover foam and my skin is back to normal. No toner no moisturizer. Every few days I'll use mario badescu glycolic cleanser for exfoliation.
P2) ..That way you don’t have to have multiple products, all of it is in the one Paula’s choice. What do you use for a cleanser? I would recommend the Youth to the People kale and green tea cleanser. It’s great for all skin types and especially good for evening the skin. It could help with texture. Then as for other serums I would keep the Hyaluronic acid as long as there are no other additives. If there are a lot of other ingredients then I would just use The Ordinary or The Inkey List because it’s just going to be Hyaluronic acid, nothing else. Also a great tip for HA, make sure the skin is slightly damp. It needs the water to cling to because it’s a chemical bond. If it doesn’t have the water, then it could do the opposite and dehydrated the skin. Hope all this helps!!
Happy Birthday! My birthday is in January too but I never saw it the way you see it! The song January White by sleeping at last might brighten it up for yaaa!
You're looking super cute with this makeup ❤ Also I love having a new video from you in my sub box, I'm always thinking to myself ''With what haircolor will she surprise us this time?" I feel you with uni work 😭😭
If you like thick moisturizer I'd recommend the cosrx comfort ceramid cream, it's really nice! Also i do agree with other comments about the pineapple serum it might be too irritating :( I'd recommend using a BHA/AHA toner (for the skin texture mainly, also you'd need to use SPF with it), a vitamin c serum (there is one from some by mi that has galactomyces and vitamin c it's really good!), and then follow with a everyday moisturizing SPF (like the cosrx aloe soothing sun cream which is really hydrating and does not leave any white cast) for the daytime :)
Muy skin-care tips would be.... - SPF each day (I think you've mentioned you live in Scotland, so maybe check which SPF level is reccomended for over there?) - using the Hyaluronic Acid on damp skin - ensuring you have a good double cleanse system for night-time after wearing makeup - ie. an oil-based cleanser or cleansing balm first, and then a normal face wash - incorporating Niacinimide for skin texture - incorporating an AHA for skin texture and under the surface bumps, but this shouldn't be used at the same time as the retinol moisturiser. I like the Pixi Glow Tonic!
Beautiful as always but one little bit of advice as far as skin care goes - avoid retinol! While it may appear to give you quality skin, it is a skin-thinner and will actually age your skin quicker over time. Vitamin C is a much better option for regenerative skin.
I would love for you to do an eyebrow shaving tutorial 🥺 as simple as it may sound idk I wouldnt wanna mess it up and I’ve been wanting to try it but idkk
Happy belated birthday & sorry your dog was so poorly! I'd love to see you do an arsty or creative project if you fancy? Fully agree btw, UK in January is gash (I'm in Yorkshire). Do you supplement vitamin D3? Most of us in the Northern hemisphere are likely deficient in the winter. They say up to 4000IU is perfectly safe with no need for additional K2 🖤🖤🖤 (symptoms of low vit D include aches & pains, tiredness, depression & reduced immunity)
I'm not an expert, but I also had issues with skin texture while trying to incorporate hyaluronic acid serums and Retinol into my skincare routine. Hyaluronic acid dried tf out of my skin bc it literally holds on to moisture and was pulling it out of my skin instead of sealing it into my skin. I watched some dermotologists talk about how its in many products now and over use through product layering can lead to actually dryer skin. Maybe if I had tried applying it on wet skin I would have had better results. My skin was extremely sensitive to Retinol formulas and I tried many mild strengths. The most it could ever tolerate was 1-2 times a week in my routine otherwise I experienced flaking and irritation. And never around the eye area at all where the skin is thinnest. Ultimately I stopped using it and my skin actually looks way better oddly enough. It's not for everybody and I had to realize just bc its recommended doesn't mean your skin will agree with it. Currently using vitamin C serum and Niacidimides, suncreen sunscreen sunscreen. Simple and effective.
could you do a tattoo tour? as well, i'm moving to glasgow for art school next year so i'd love to see some daily life and stuff just about what it's like living in scotland :)
