Thanks Heather, I laughed out in a loud burst after reading your comment! I've gently fallen asleep many times with Bob Ross's voice on the telly! Lisa is a Goddess. Thank you, so much!
I'm a licensed beautician and i have to say your channel is much like a PHD study on the subject of skincare. I feel nourished and educated, thank you for your efforts.
Can't wait to see your best face oils and sheet masks video! I'm so glad I came across your channel in 2016. Learned so much in regards of taking care of my skin😍 Happy New Years Renee and I wish you the best skin health and health!!💖
Hi 언니! Nice seeing you here too! Update us on how the expanded routine is going when you feel like you want to. :D I actually am subbing the opposite philosophy of less is more! 화장품읽어주는남자 feels that we should put on what we need and believes in the total opposite of me. He says it's because Seoul is really polluted??
Lovely Liah! I've been following your channel for a while now and love how authentic, vulnerable and sweet you are. Your are an absolute joy to watch and we share a love for cushion compacts!
Your skin is gorgeous! Your videos have really helped me get into korean skincare products (especially the oily skin routine). I love your reviews--so honest and in depth. Can't wait for the vitamin C video.
I was so excited to see your best-in-skincare video!🙂 Before I watched any of your videos I thought my skin was simply oily. After binge-watching your videos I realized I have dehydrated skin and that's why my skin produces more sebum. I changed up my routine and thanks to you my skin became radiant 😄 I trust your judgement on skincare products so this video is just perfect for me. Thank you for the quality content, you became my favorite youtuber in 2016. Happy New Year, have a beautiful 2017!🍾🎉
Marti Vincze hello, i just read ur comment and ur skin sounds like my bf...he doesn't like the feel of skin care products on his face could u give me any suggestions for him? his face always feels like it's smeared w grease but it's the way his skin is naturally....
I just love, love, love the way you talk and everything is so structured and organized. Whenever you upload I make myself a cup of tea and sit and watch your video. It just feels like I'm chatting with a friend! ♡
I love your channel! Not just great recommendations and editing, but you're also so articulate in the way you deliver your info and thoughts! Happy new year!
Speechless, i'm speechless. I just turn 30 couple days ago and feel like it is time for me to give some TLC to my skin ( I'm so lazy when it comes to makeup and skincare... too many informations, kinds and types). Watching you like i'm class... lol. So informative and educative. I'm gonna following you FOREVER.
So I have to take a quick moment to tell you that your channel is what I was looking for sooo long 😩 I discovered You yesterday and watched the last 4 hours so many of your videos and I Can't stop ! Finally a channel that concentrates on skincare and lucky enough I have sensitive skin,too so I'm taking your advices very seriously :) You know so much and explain everything so good that everyone can understand it. I will for sure use so many of your tips and hope to get that "inner glow" 😍 love your personality also ! I'm excited for your next video and happy that I found you 😁☺️ xxx from Germany

I watched one of your previous videos and you introduced me to the low ph cleanser and I just want to thank you sooooooo much! My skin has changed so much since using it!
love the "yeah I just like the medicine smell in my skincare, what can I say I'm weird" that was the best!😍😍 wonderful video as always although I wish you would upload videos more often. ❤💜💛💚
Haha! Thank you so much Cristina! I would love nothing more than to upload videos more often! Will do my best this year! Thank you for your support and encouragement. Means a lot to me!
Thank you so much for this video, hun! 😊 I can't wait to see the sheet mask edition! 😁 Thank you for all your excellent content in 2016 and I wish you a wonderful 2017 ☺ 💖 xox
Have you tried the biore uv aqua rich watery essence? It's THE lightest sun screen I've ever tired. It's sinks in as soon as you apply it and I've never had a better sunscreen
i remember Rene mentioned it in a video for sunscreen, and thats how i found this amazing sunscreen, really so much better than the Paulas Choice sunscreens, coz its absorbed so quickly and perfectly, leaving no white cast, also good for makeup! :)
Aww what a great surprise :) I have really been wanting to get my hands on some KICHO & HEIMISH products. I may get kicked out if I order more skincare lol ~ I now have a stash of it in my studio. This channel changed my life this year. Thank you Renee
Renée, thank you for your honest review of skincare items. I discovered Korean skincare just this year and because of your recommendations my skin looks the best it has ever looked in my life. Keep up the good work and you definitely have a follower for life! Happy New Year!
I wished I found you sooner!! 😉 There are not very many reviewers my age. It's so nice to hear concerns that address what I need to address. Your skin is amazing by the way. Love the products you review and can't wait for more.
Love this! Question - if you're always testing new products, how can you tell which one causes a skin reaction if something doesn't work for you? How long do you wait in between testing new products?
I test new products one at a time and a skin reaction usually will be noticeable after the 2nd/3rd time I use it. For me, my skin gets very sensitive and can start to sting.
Thank you so much! I get acne rosacea breakouts on my chin sometimes, and have never been able to figure out which ingredients are triggers for me. It makes trying to incorporate anti-aging and/or asian beauty skincare products into my routine tricky, especially when I watch videos and so many things look amazing.
Just discovered this channel and have been on a total binge! Why have I not come across this lady before? A skincare obsessive with the knowledge to back it up! Fantastic 😆
2017 favorites: That Beauty of Joseon Dynasty cream is one of the best things I've ever put on my face. I have combination oily, my T-zone is like an oil slick, so finding an occlusive that has oils but leaves my skin soft, bouncy, hydrated and NOT greasy? I use it with my oil-free moisturizer from Cosrx (my best Korean friend) and I actually feel for once that the hydration I get from my essences and toner are both boosted AND protected from the cold winter outside. My favorite of favorites is my pore corset serum, which actually has a difference on my pore size but more importantly, reduces the oil production in my t-zone. I also has klairs new toner, and I've just about decided that I don't need to purchase another hydrating toner ever again cuz it's everything I need. 2016 has been good to my face. 2017 will be even better.
2016 has indeed been a skincare year for me, it's the year I discovered k-beauty. I know I'm late to the party but I'm there now! It's also the year I discovered your channel and I've been using it as a skincare resource. Thank you for all the great videos - looking forward to more in 2017! Happy New Year!
Renee I can't express how pleased I am to have found you! My skin type is very dry/dehydrated. I am currently living in upstate NY but am relocating to Phoenix AZ. I am terrified of the dessert climate, and what it will do to my skin! I have already purchased some of the products you recommend and am loving them. After years of spending so much money on empty promises, the products and tips you offer are a breath of fresh air. Your advice on layering "emulsions" has made a huge difference for me. Thank you so so much and keep the videos coming, I just devour the information!
Thank you, so much Megan! Your comment just makes me happy. I can totally relate to spending a fortune on useless products that are never enough. For our skin type, make up only enhances our problems. When you're in Phoenix, layer aggressively and the right oils will make all the difference!
Renee: I find you to be one of the best beauty gurus on youtube. So happy I found you. Your advice on products is just amazing and I would never have found the products you review on my own. Also I find that your style and approach is very professional and to the point. Thanks!!!!
Has anyone ever told you that you have a wonderful voice inflection? I actually watched the entire video because you're so well spoken and eloquent in speech!
I'm lazy with my skincare regiment ever since I got pregnant. I'm always tired, so I don't bother doing those extra steps to pamper my skin. But every time you upload your videos, I feel so motivated going back to my regime. I envy your flawless skin! Dang pregnancy hormones, messing up my skin. By the way, happy new year!
thanks so much for these reviews, Renée! I just love how you explain what specifically makes each product spectacular or not, and you do it so proficiently! That's why I love watching your videos
This is the first video of yours I am watching. Not even halfway through and I've subscribed! Excited to explore the rest of your channel. Happy holidays xx
I always look so forward to all of your videos--you never fail to amaze with your knowledge and fantastic finds! One year ago I stumbled onto your YT site, my skin was a living nightmare(sensitive, redness, agine, dryness) and you saved me--thank you so much for all your hard work and research... and I cannot wait til your next vid. happy new year!
Thanks for all your videos, I never missed one since I discovered your channel a year ago. I'm Asian and I enjoy watching beauty you-tubers introduce Asian products which are more accessible to me. I love your taste for skincare and you always make it a point to provide good information on them. Your skin looks so baby soft, plump and glowy! All the best to you in 2017 and I hope you can upload more frequently! Love!
I just want to say that you have changed my skin care game immensely. I will soon be adding some of your recommended products to my routine, but I have just today adopted your philosophy with the few products that I already have (which as of right now is nothing but a very gentle cleanser, simple oil, and moisturizer, unfortunately). When I got out of the shower, I splashed some cool water on my face and allowed it to stay moist, because I don't have a hydrating toner. Then I took a few drops of jojoba oil and gently patted it into my damp skin. Then I patted in a thin layer of my usual CeraVe moisturizer (which is okay, but maybe not perfect for my needs). I think I already notice a difference in my skin, at least initially. I'm going to keep it up!
I enjoy your channel immensely. I feel like you just give so much great in-depth information and I look forward to every video you put out! Cannot wait for your sunscreen video! Thank you for effort. Love from Canada!
You, Caroline Hirons and Hot & Flashy, the trifecta of researched and trustworthy skin care reviews on youtube. Thank you so much for the time you take to create your well researched, well filmed and interesting content. Wishing you all the success in 2017, you deserve it.
Ah, I find your videos so relaxing! Happy New Year! Thank you for all you do, we appreciate you! A silly question: do you work in the cosmetics/skincare industry? Because you're not the regular consumer, for sure! I'd love to know, thank you!
Honestly, you are just the best. Your explanations are very thorough and you don't waste any words. I really like that plus you have a soothing voice. You're beautiful and the entire time you are talking you're smiling and it feels very warm and welcoming from this side of the screen. Please keep it up!! Also I do have a request if you have any recommendations for sensitive rosacea. :)
I love watching your videos! Your voice is so soothing and relaxing. I cannot wait to try some of your recommendations, especially as a toner junkie myself. A little out of topic, but I would love to see what you wear as well. The cardigan and shirt you have on are fabulous! And those nails too 😉 please list what you wear!
Thanks Renee for posting this and all your other videos. You are now my go to advisor for beauty because I'm always learning some from you! Happy New Year!
I bought blithe crystal eggplant based on your initial video (ages ago!) as I thought it would be better for my skin type (dehydrated, slight tend towards oily). I did well with it for most of the year but a couple of months ago decided to try the tundra chaga. I thought the crystal eggplant was good, but this is something else. I really think it's good for all skin types. Likely a holy grail product for me now. Many thanks renee, so pleased I found you. I'm waiting with bated breath on oils. It's one I struggle with due to skin type, and I'm not getting any younger! x
I'm so glad that I came across your channel! This video is well deserving of a thumbs up and I quickly hit the subscribe button as well. Thank you for your very informative yet concise reviews. Looking forward to seeing more!
Rene!!!!! I have watched about 90% of your videos. I have learned so much its unbelievable! I love your approach to skin care and I have bought so many new products with your recommendations!! thank you! keep up the good work and I am looking forward to more videos! :)
Have you tried the Fresh Herb Origin Serum from Natural Pacific? It's apparently a really popular product in South Korea that's supposed to repair damaged skin. Do you think the ingredients are suitable for someone that has oily skin? By the way, I freaking love your videos! I always get so thrilled when I see you've posted a new video.
It really was an awesome year for skincare! (Seemingly one of the ONLY good things about the darn year...) Stand outs for me that I bought on your recommendation were the All Clean Balm, Sum 37 MRCS, and Hada Labo Hyluronic Acid! Love those guys! Other favs skincare wise would have to be Antipodes Manuka Honey Mask (think you'd love it!) Fresh's Seaberry Oil, Cover FX invisible sunscreen, and Lyeska's Siberian Nut Moisturizer! Have a Happy New Year Renee!
Dear Renee, if I had a list of favorite RU-vid videos from 2016 this would be my #1. You are soooo talented and knowledgeable that I'm really thankful for finding your chanel in 2016. I just wish you would had released this video before Christmas so I could have had some of this gems on my wish list 😆...Thank you sooo much for sharing and I wish for you and your loved ones all the blessings that 2017 can bring...Happy New Year! 🍾🎉
Absolutely love your videos Renee, thank you so much for all the effort you put into them, 2016 was the year I committed to Asian skincare after 30plus years of EU skincare, as I am getting older I really wanted to step it up a couple of notches and Asian Skincare is doing that for me. I am really looking forward to your 2017 videos. Take care and thanks again xxxxx
Tried most of the products, found that 7+ step skin regime does wonders, still sticking to my dubrovnik monastery rose cream as a top pick moisturiser.
Love, love, love your videos. Thanks for uploading this! I love the Sulwhasoo Clarifying Mask, it's so good. I'm really enjoying your recommendations (Skin&Lab Dr. Pore Mask especially). Keep up the great work :) Happy New Year to you too.
Your hair is soooo gorgeous in this video! I've recently discovered your channel and I have been binge watching! I am a skin care lover and I have loved learning about some of the asian products and ingredients from you! Look forward to maybe trying a few myself!
Just discovered your channel and binge watching. So if my comments are everywhere. I'm just enjoying myself. I'm learning about products I have never heard from and new sites to order from.
I love your channel esp your reviews of skin care products, I've been looking for reviews for Asian skin care products as I am half-Asian and find that my skin responds better to for example Japanese products. Your reviews are the absolute best!
Happy new year Renee! I have been binge watching your videos and have learned so much. I added your suggestions from your fermented skincare video. My skin has been transformed! I can't wait for your new winter skincare routine!
Happy New Year Renee, so happy you made this video - I was really hoping you would. You got me into Asian skincare and now I can't go back. Looking forward to the sunscreen and vitamin C videos !!
Heyyitscdog Honestly I always double cleanse at night because sunscreens might clog your pores because they are not easy to just wash off completely with a typical cleanser.
Deniz Faruk ERKAN You can still single cleanse by putting one drop of your oil cleanser into the well lathered foam and then emulsifying it. Then take the mixture and put it in on your face. Keep rinsing with water until all the white residue is gone. As a dry person double cleansing was too much and my skin is now so much better for it. I single cleanse with no problem. When oil cleansing I keep rinsing with water until all the white residue is gone.
no you only double cleanse when you have sunscreen or makeup since a water based cleanser(gel or cream etc) are not capable (of removing makeup and sunscreen) or are not made to do what a cleansing oil or a cleansing balm are supposed to do .. double cleansing on bare skin can strip needed moisture off your skin
love this video. you mentioned so many products new to me that I'm going to try in the new year. you have such amazing skin!!! have a happy new year and I look forward to many great new videos to come :)
