Thank you so much! My Dad looks younger than his age, so I'd say definitely partially genetics, I wear sunscreen (high SPF + PA) every single day of the year (through most of my 20s - probably the most important factor), and then Vitamin C, and copper peptides + anti aging peptides help keep that collagen going. Tretinoin is considered the gold standard for anti aging but my skin got too irritated by it, but lots of people swear by that too.
I’ve had such a hard time with hyper-pigmentation and I’m really excited to start investigating the products you’ve been using! I’ve been watching your channel for years now and I’m so happy for you that you’re getting married! I’ve had such a wonderful time seeing you grow and progress in your art 💕
I really live for the muji cleansing oil. It makes my skin feel as though I don't need to double cleanse (I do anyways lol). Its one of my most effective makeup remover that doesn't dry out my skin.
Love this! I have watched you for years because you always share so much information and your videos are so educational. I'm a huge skincare lover and an incrediend nerd myself so this type of content is much welcome 😄
Hi ! I'm French. Scar is Cicatrice in french. I believe that's why the creams start with cica, it probably means they help with scars. It's funny that I actually have a cream named Cicalfate 😂 I didn't realise how commun it was before you said it !
Kiana, Thank you for this tutorial. I have adult acne and it always appears on my chin. I'm quite fair skinned and have a few red spots/scars. I ended up incorporating the snail mucin and rose hip seed oil to my night time routine. It's been a month and it's made a huge difference. Thank you so much. :)
Right? All praise rosehip!! Aw thank you, I've had someone tell me my hands look really old for my age which stuck with me, so your compliment means a lot :)
Hey! Just wanted to say I've been watching your videos since I was like 13-I'm 18 now! Got to meet you at Monsterpalooza this year. I saw you and I was like "is that Freakmo???" You're very sweet! Love your videos, I'm excited to see what you upload this Halloween season!
I am still not very experienced with skincare, but i have become really interested! This summer i think i have found my best routine so far! I use some more local products that probably arent available in your country, but i also got the ordinary hyaloronic acid and squalane and they are nice. At first i thought i should use hyaloronic acid first since it feels more watery, but then when i put the squalane on top i starts pilling. But in the opposite order it works! Sometimes i also use aloe vera or some pharmacy cream to soothe if my skin is annoyed, then i seal it all in with a moisturiser that isnt so sticky. I have been wanting to try an enzyme peeling for a while but havent bought one yet. Changing my cleansing routine has also been helpful, i changed the soapy one for a cleansing milk and started to really massage it in and not be lazy. I just exfoliate by gently rubbing a wet towel after cleansing, idk if its right but it works. I didnt realise skincare could be so nice until i found what worked for me !
Hey, loved the video. I have recently been using Clinique as it doesn't contain any fragrances. I have acne prone skin and use the anti blemish cleanser, toner and moisturiser. Really need to start using suncreen again but wanted to clear my skin a bit first. The Clinique take the day off oil cleanser/remover I heard is really good so might try that next. I'm 31 and I have large pores, acne scars and pigmentation too. You have such nice skin. Congrats on your wedding :) xx
Awesome, I have the take the day off balm in my "to try" pile, I should get on it! I've tried their dramatically different moisturiser but it makes my skin sting which is super strange.
My skin looks like the thumbnail for this video sometimes tbh. Real talk though, I'll be 30 in November and I really appreciate this series, thanks a lot gurl.
I know this isn’t a prosthetics video, but it would be cool if you did a video on making a “cheap” prosthetic look better/more realistic. (Like one of those ones you get from a drugstore at Halloween time).
Hey! Congratulations on the wedding. My names Ella Phillip-Clarke. My mum is Joanne Phillip-Clarke and my dad is Warren. I love your channel. But yeah congrats!
Your skin seems really similar to mine (sensitive, dry with some spots once in a while and some scarring), although I do have atopic skin. But I’ll try a few of these products!
Freakmo from a skin therapists perspective this is such an educational video for someone like you to be putting out. Especially for the young girls that watch your Sfx tutorials, the best base is healthy skin ✨
In the evening I always wash my face, apply spot treatment, use specific skin care for oily skin but no matter which kind of products I use, I will wake up ultra oily and my blackheads are very apparent. Any advice :(?
I've heard some advice that you can add oil or more moisturising products back into your skincare to try to prevent the skin from over-producing it's own oil. The theory is similar to hair - if you shampoo everyday then your hair will start to make more of it's own oil to try to counter-act the oil being stripped away everyday, and that if you reduce hair-washing it can calm down. Might be worth trying to add more moisture or oil to see if your skin doens't feel the need to make as much of it's own. For blackheads a 2% BHA works really well - try the ordinary or cosrx for cheaper but effective ones :)
you should try the snail repair cream by mizon, (I get it off amazon its pretty cheap and lasts forever) I've found that it has all the snail goop properties without the gross slime feeling
This video has me with $35 of ordinary in my cart :/ rosehip oil, glycolic toner, their SA, and the original buffet. I could use a re-up of their aha and bha mask. Have you tried the Dr jart cicapair overnight mask? So amazing.
I'm not sure if it's something you'd care to know, but Deciem (the parent company of The Ordinary) has a CEO who's gone totally rogue. I loved The Ordinary until I saw Deciem's instagram and heard about what the CEO has been doing. You can google it if you wanna know more about how the company is operating and their (lack of) ethics at the top level. 😞 Otherwise love your video! 💜
Hahah holy shit I honestly send his instagram posts to so many people being like "look what Brandon is doing now", it's actually super worrying. I'm so surprised no one has stepped in yet. I'm not sure if it's a mental breakdown, or drug use, or a combination of both.
Thank you! From what I understand the molecules are too big to penetrate the skin, which is why it just sits on top forming an occlusive layer to prevent TEWL (Transepidermal water loss), but some people are allergic to petrolatum products.
