Best & Worst Skincare Hacks 

Actually it doesn’t have to be this way. Try to change what you eat. It’s fundamental

Its kinda weird how acne is so shamed.

@@ms.b.1363 That's excellent advice. It's incredibly difficult to pin down what sorts of things may be inflammatory to all people, but the common culprits are good things to start cutting out.

Ironically enough, when my skin was dry and dehydrated and I had very few blemishes and I thought I was doing ok. No skincare to speak of either. But last summer when my GP told me that the tiny bumps on my nose were rosacea, a kind of acne he said, I started a journey to a full skincare routine now that has made my skin incredibly healthy and dewy at all times, on which makeup sits nicely (didn't wear makeup for years on the dry skin). BUT now I get the occasional normal pimple...... and I don't really care about it like I thought I would. I'm not even half a year into retinol and other acne preventing ingredients so I'm hoping that the spots decrease in frequency over time anyway. Regardless, even if there are a few of them at one time, or a breakout of sorts, the rest of my skin is so nice that it's not as noticeable as it was before when my whole face (I now realize) looked unwell and irritated from dryness. Also, they are way easier to spot conceal now that the skin is healthy and takes to makeup. So even a no-fullface-makeup day doesn't have to reveal the breakout.

Yeah! That's a good point. What a relief.

YA HAHAHA so cute!

HAHAHA

Too funny like "girl bye"! 👋🏼😂

🤣🤣🤣

hahaha that part had me dying

Literally

And they’re beautiful.

yes... we STAN

@@RehAdventures 😂

And they’re gorgeous lol 😂

second this!!

4th this 🤣 especially tans that are not harming the skin on the face 😬🤞

oh my god yes because I use a retinoid and I don't know where to fit my tanning water in with that lol

Yes please!!!

Put a drop of each item of your routine on the same flat surface and tilt it. Whatever runs the furthest goes on first.

A lot of people don't realize the importance of sunscreen and how you should be wearing it every single day, even during the winter/on cloudy days and while indoors. Sadly, I was one of those people and started wearing it really late. Sigh.

@@nissan_skyline dang I didn’t know that thank u I hope 16 isn’t too late

@@unknownprimal7106 Oh gosh 16 is not late at all. If you start now you'll look 30 by the time you're 50 :)

@@nissan_skyline while indoor? Thank you I was not aware of this!

​@@preetparmar1939 Oh you're so welcome! And yes, according to the American Cancer Society, the glass typically used in cars, homes and office windows is designed to block most UVB rays, but it doesn't offer protection from all UVA rays. So if you're inside and close to a window, you still run the risk of exposure to UVA rays and possible skin damage. UVA rays are generally linked to aging, wrinkles, sun spots and other signs of sun damage, whereas UVB rays are linked to sunburns and skin cancer. Clouds also don't block UVA and UVB rays from penetrating your skin, so although it may feel cool and cloudy outside, your skin will still absorb these harmful rays.

I love how friends can call each other out 🤣

I died 🤣🤣🤣

I use them all the time

@@twentiethcenturyfox5481 do they work better than biore strips??

YES PLEASE

Yeah I think they know a bit about hair because the scalp is a part of the skin not the hair, so since they specialise in skin they would have to know about the scalp making them know a bit about the actual hair strands.

There are cosmetologists here on RU-vid...

4b hair better

I know, they are hella gay

@@jimi5221ok?

@@jimi5221 they're both straight

You forgot make up

Exactly lol

lol almost a no brainer too if shes using laser and such, she would have to use Vaseline anyway lmao.

I wasn't going to be the one to say it haha

Vaseline is what the plastic surgeon and dermatologist use after each procedure. She left that tiny 🤏🏽 fact out 😂😂😂

You have no idea how much I appreciate your comment. Thank you!

Yes this is seriously good advice

🙏

Which brand do u buy tho ?? 🥺

@@jenniferl6212 I buy whatever patches are cheapest! Hydrocolloid has gotten so popular that even store brands are making them. Although if you, like me, live near a college, the HC bandaids are always sold out because of all the college skincare girlies, haha!

Yeah i caught that too..had to replay, that was so funny and random

Hello begonia, how are you?

@@denniswilliam8867 gosh.

Ahahah

😂 😂 💀 same!!

omg me toooooo! Too pure for this world!

That was cute

OMG YESSSSS!!!! Still unsure if I should get a body brush

Yes absolutely!!! We look at all of your suggestions and make a list!

@@Doctorly Thank you :)

@@Doctorly please do the video

Salicylic acid. Chemical is better than physical.

I think what you should do is putting on tretinoin one day, and then vaseline the other day. So not on the same day, unless you use tretinoin every day 😭

@@Lana.a_ I actually don't have any dryness from the tretinoin. I use the Cerave moisturizer or the aveeno gel moisturizer and never have issues with dry skin anymore. I have gone too far in the past and now if I think I might be noticing it is getting sensitive I will skip a few days. I tried the vaseline because I have been seeing so many thing about it as a moisturizer however it did make my skin itchy. It is ver yvery occlusive and I have very reactive skin.

@@hopelyle6222 well putting a moisture better increases the time of activity so if you put it over it will be like using a higher dose.

I put QV intensive heeling ointment over tretinoin every night and haven't had any issues yet. But I've been using tretinoin for a while now, so I think my skin is just used to it.

Just fyi: Vaseline itself doesn't moisturize. It just creates a barrier over your skin while your skin does its thing. So it's your own skin's moisture, not anything added to it. Imo, find a quality moisturizer that will let your skin breathe freely. Good luck 👍

So has my mother and her mother before. I started doing this as a little girl. Amazing!!

I do this and I do have good eyelashes…maybe it works…maybe she’s born with it lol

@@finfoxwolfpack2542 maybe it’s maybelline .... sorry I just had to 😂😂😂

Girl share some of the fun hacks omg I’m all ears !!!

I did this & always end up congested.... headache & blurry vision, I ONLY use a tiny dab! ☹️

If my significant other doesn’t look at me like maxfield I don’t want them

Shah has a friggen beautiful wife so I think he’s just a nice guy admiring his friend lmao

😍☺👀

Same thought, pal. Same. 😹

@@andresmacho888 even if you're married, you still need a bestie who looks at you like Dr. Maxfield looks at Dr. Shah!

Haha that’s so good!

lmaoo

Seems like sexual tension to me.

@@flclub54 everything's sexual to some people. Smh

Yeah u can tell they like each other,like even love each other

Are they a couple??

I feel same

Would make sense. Ive seen loads of people with wonderful skin, who were those kinds of people that didnt give a shit about their looks in general, maybe they just dont torture it :D

@@-postapokalypso-7289 if I didn’t give a shit about my skin it would break out so bad you have no idea. I’m sure you meant when people don’t use 200 products per day their skin does better and that’s true! I’ve been using cerave or cetaphil and differin plus drinking green tea and plenty of water and my skin is getting so much better. No toners with 3 moisturizers or god knows how many more products some influencers use 🥴

@@denissemedina4619 Yeah not saying it's not different for everyone. Some people need to take care more than others but I guess noone needs 200 products xD

Most of my life I just washed my face with water and used different oils as a moisturizer. When I turned 39 I started trying more skin care products such as hyaluronic acid and vitamin c serums. I didn’t tell my husband what I was doing but a few weeks after I started he commented that my skin wasn’t looking as great as it normally did. Whenever I try something new and made specifically for skincare it ends up not helping but hurting my skin.

Yes !!!

YES PLEASE

Dr. Alexis Stephens is a board certified dermatologist & has a great video on this as well!

Yesss

Also good diy examples

Thank you so much for that Doc! We appreciate the support and glad you find these videos helpful and easy to understand!

As a viewing in the general public, I 100% agree with David. Your content is easily digestible and the delivery is clear and concise. The visual aids are extremely helpful too!

Perfectly said!!!

@@tawneosborn2892 Ha! Thanks for backing me up. That is the first RU-vid comment I have EVER POSTED!!!! lol

@@andreawilde YAY!! Glad I got to be a part of your inaugural comment. LOL

Don’t beat yourself up over it. We’ve all been there. When we know better, we do better.

@@gbeana81 lol thanks

don't do it. use benzoyl during the day but stay out of the sun. use Vaseline on your face at night after washing your face. really should only use benzoyl as spot treatment at night

@@vidaliatheonionqueen I'm super oily and live in a very humid environment (90-99% humidity daily until rare winter dry cold fronts for a couple days) so I use benzoyl peroxide to soak up some of that oil (I also had oily acne prone skin since puberty so). I wake up wayy less oily that way. Ugh it sucks to see my friends who eat junk food and still have dry clear skin in this city😫😂

@@chocolatecharley99 i live in the same climate and my skin is the same as what you described. trust me. only use benzoyl for spot treatment at night. your skin needs to heal over night and plump. use benzoyl toner in the morning after using a gentle cleanser. that will keep the oil down. but don't over use it because you'll dry your skin out. and use benzoyl lotion afterwards if your skin is in a bad breakout state. it helps cleanse your skin throughout the day while it's getting dirty from your environment and touching your face. and make sure you wash your face at night with a stronger cleanser to wash those products and settled dirt and oil off before bed. keeping a routine of this, your skin will eventually become less oily and you can decrease how much you use benzoyl

Thanks! I heard aquafore is amazing. Do you use awuafore over you’re regular moisturizer?

Check out brad mondo he definitely has all hair videos even for curly hair

omg yes!

Yes, for anything related to your hair ... see Brad Mondo videos on RU-vid. ( he's a professional 👏)

They already did, look at their older videos.

Vitamin c & niacinamide

Are you watching this at 1:15 in the morning like I am? Lol

dark circles are hot as fuck

@@koloseis lol wtf you ok? 🤣

It really is a great channel and such invaluable, useful info! Please be careful with the Just for Men (or any haircolor) near the eye area like the good doctors mentioned, especially due to the hair dye possibly causing severe eye irritation and/or blindness if it gets in the eye.

@Caroline Sutton what about bio oil?

I would love to know what growth serum need to have in them to work,cause some are 40$ and some are 100$???

Ohh yes! One made my eyelashes fall out. Scared to try any others

And eyebrow growth serums!

It is literally oil to help it go out of the skin.. Nothing more... There's no point to buy 80 € lash serum.. You can just put on any oil and it gona do the same job

Keeps them from shedding as quickly

You should take a look @dr vanita rattan. Her entire channel is dedicated to skin of colour and she has lots of advice on hyper pigmentation!

Check on Dr Hani’s vid on hyperpigmentation. It works !

Thank you so much for subscribing so early on and believing in the channel!! We will add your suggestion to the list!!

I hope people know I was joking haha

@@Doctorly We did! 😊

Same tho

i wouldn't recommend vaseline on closed comedones but it would be great on irritated, raised, red and hurting pimples/rashes ofc with acne products under that arent actives

Put in on your eyes at night time. It will cut back the look of aging by years. Keep it off your face.

i personally use it on my face and it doesn’t break me out, but everyone has different skin so please take this with a grain of salt. i wouldn’t recommend it for other ppl bc i know it can break other ppl out

I put it on my eyelids which stops the drying out

Let's channel that energy out into the world haha universe is listening!

@@Doctorly ⁹

Yes, and have guests on like Dr Youn and Dr Dray. Maybe Dr Pimple Popper.

@@Doctorly when you have your own show please shout out for my resume. Il be following. 💜

Love ceraVe healing ointment!!

YESSSSSS I have acanthosis nigricans thanks to my PCOS (my insulin levels are fine) and my old dermatologist (who has terrible ratings, only sees people for thirty seconds, and misdiagnosed my dermatitis and led to my face getting SO MUCH WORSE) just went “I don’t know, try scrubbing it harder.”

@@bistitchualbee I know! My derm tried to say there was no link between my acne and my overall health as if PCOS wouldn’t impact my skin so I get you it’s very annoying. Same thing was said on the impact of food

I felt so attacked when they said, "What are you gonna walk around with a whole salad on your face?" lol me: chilling in a mask with potato essence. :)

@@alyaka1913 🤣🤣🤣

Hopefully stay home isolate

Exactly. It's the best skin protectant on Earth. But it's so cheap people don't believe it works!

My gramma used it every night

Yes to hair loss video 🥰

idk if this helps, but i observed that eating more eggs and drinking more milk made my nails stronger. I am a frequent isopropyl alcohol user, my family's assigned dishwasher, and never had broken nails and hangnails. the drawback: more acne due to dairy. will switch to plant-based milks now

Hi! Can you please talk about nail ridges. My nail are terribly ridged and brittle. I don't know why it's happening. What can I do about them?

I can see you thumbnail picture. Your skin looks smoothly glowy.

Whats your age??
