1. You are my favorite skincare goddess on RU-vid. You are smart and REAL. Thank you for being you 😊 2. Have you done back/butt/shoulder acne videos? Help plz help! Also, you have talked about hyper pigmentation but have you talked about texture from acne scars?
Matcha changed my life! I’m down 20 lbs in 5 weeks. I’m going to implement it in my skincare routine. My husband said my skin looks “glowy”. I’m now thinking that could be Matcha!!😊😊😊😊
I love green tea but I never tried matcha green tea. I love using masks for my face. Aloe Vera works really good on my skin. I’ve heard about another clay mask called Aztec clay mask.
I feels!! I never liked green tea to be honest because it was a bit bitter for me, then I tried matcha and creamy almond or soy milk omg my life changed. Lol!! And yes! The step clay mask has the same main ingrednint as this one!! The difference is that the Aztec has no matcha or aloe or hydrators- it depends on your skin type and what works best for you!
Honestly my favorite person on RU-vid you literally saved my life when I was in middle school and had horrible skin I loved watching your videos and getting advice also not feeling so alone keep being awesome 😍💓
hey Cassandra!!! I was wondering if you’ve looked into the Korean skincare routine/any products specifically made in Korea or something along these lines? I’m very interested in your take on it!!!
That mask looks great. I usually prefer to brew strong matcha and apply that to my face. Yes, it is a little drying doing that so it works better for oily or combo skin types. But as long as you moisturize well afterward it’s fine. I also keep some of the brewed matcha liquid leftover and mix a little in with hyaluronic acid serums and/or my moisturizer and apply that after rinsing off the mask. That way I get a little bit of the matcha left on my skin. I make a little puddle and mix the matcha (not matcha powder... remember I mean strong brewed matcha liquid) with the moisturizer and it mixes just fine. Doesn’t pill up or separate or anything weird at all. If anyone is wondering if this makes your face green at all- surprisingly not really. Plus, even if it did I don’t really care since I do this during my night time routine. If anything it leaves a very slight green hue on my face but sometimes it’s not even noticeable at all. Especially once all your skincare is on. I normally don’t recommend DIY anything for skincare but green tea simply has too many clinically proven benefits to not incorporate it into your routine. Green tea/EGCG is one of the most studied natural ingredients in the world and can protect skin from UV damage. I’ve also seen some studies showing that EGCG can regenerate dying skin cells. It is also anti inflammatory and anti carcinogenic. It makes a great base before sunscreen too! So if you’re a morning matcha drinker, save a splash at the bottom of your cup and apply that to your face, let dry, then apply sunscreen.
Cassandra! Your make up is on point! Teach me. I know this vid is 4 years old but I still keep up with ya and your gorgeous as always haven’t aged a day.
After looking at Teami's ingredients, personally not a fan of the phenoxyethanol in it. I typically purchase an organic high quality matcha powder and will use a bit of organic turmeric powder and rosewater with glycerin. Simple easy brightening mask.
Girllllllll you are amazing! I can watch your videos all day! I'm still fighting with acne marks and your videos are soooooo helpful for me! Love your voice and your energy! 💚 Greetings from Bulgaria!
Cassandra! I just did a karate kick in my kitchen as I clicked on this video...I was in the middle of making my matcha latte already! 💕 I’m about 4 months off coffee... I was always a coffee enthusiast, drinking 3-4 cups daily. One day, I had enough! I didn’t like the speedy jitters, my heart beating fast, and I wasn’t sure if maybe my coffee consumption had something to do with my insomnia & anxiety. After I drink my matcha, I’m energized and motivated, but not speedy or on edge. The energy lasts me throughout the day, there’s no crash. I don’t have mood highs and lows. My teeth are whiter. I’m sleeping better. My skin is looking more hydrated and less dull. My jawline hormonal acne heals faster than it used to. I’m in love! There’s so many ways to drink it, too! I mix mine with ashwaghanda and Maca powders. I sometimes add cinnamon or nutmeg or vanilla, and I use a hand blender to make foam so it’s artsy and pretty. Thanks for the information... this made me love my matcha even more!
I will definitely try this... I have very old acne scars, all the different types... 😖I'm on my fifth micrneedling treatment and have seen some improvements. I've also have been following Dr. Dray and Dr. Davin Lim.. where were they in the 80's. 😢 I really enjoy your videos.
I love you geeking out like this. It gets me geeky self all revved up😍 live your videos!! They are so scientific. And well.. I really wish people talk about antioxidant like you do. Love 😍
I just started my diet With drinking Matcha with Raw Honey and I'm Not Really lowering my calories But Ive so far lost 4 pounds within two days not sure if It was All the way Matcha doing the Job but I can totally tell Its helping my oily skin so far!!!
:) Green tea and even better matcha! Good stuff. Looks like subtitles are in Dutch? lol Not that I mind actually. Cool language lesson! Dr. Dray is great.
@@CassandraBankson i think it's called Bigelow classic green tea. And it does have the EGCG so yayy! Although I haven't noticed any fat or weight loss lol.
OK. I'm sold that matcha is something I should drink more of. But--I really don't like the taste. Can I get the benefits by adding matcha powder to another food/beverage? (Fresh fruit/veggie juices, smoothies?)
The color is awsome! I am.glad its so healthy bcs I really like the taste but I thought it was unhealthy because people told me it takes the iron away from your body.
Cassandra please do rply me....plz guide me is ornge juice is bad for acne prone skin?if it is....then plz sgst me 1 drink for my acne excpt green tea plzzz🙏🙏🙏
I love how you explain complicated words with real life examples lol. Definitely ordering that masque now!!And what brand matcha green tea do you use? Great video❤️
WOW! This video was seriously SO informative! Thank you so much! I'm so happy our mask is on your list of awesome Matcha products! Seriously, it is such a game changer! :)
Good evening darling and thank you so much for the love and support!! I am so happy you enjoy- it makes my heart so happy to know others care about skincare ingredients and health too
Been watching your videos for couple of days now. So happy to bumped in to this amazing channel. I love matcha but haven't tried getting the powder one. I always have my green tea with me. Can we also use green tea leaves as a mask?🙄😁
Didn't know whr to comment but I vote for meet up on Sunday... If ur doing it on Sunday I'll be beyond happy to see u and hug u omg I attracted it... Ur an angel ❤️
Your videos have help me a lot thoughout my and journey. They are so informative. After many many years of acne, I have finally cleared up my skin so far. Now I'm stuck with scarring. I wear makeup to cover them but unfortunately they are deep so they are still noticable. I am not sure what to do. I have sensitive oily skin. I'm nervous trying new things since I have my fair sure if horror stories.
Liah Yoo highly recommends tamanu oil as a spot treatment on scars (too heavy for all over use). I believe for deeper scars, certain facial treatments can be beneficial that resurface the skin, though I know they are expensive. Good luck!
Kelly Brinkerhoff love you Kelly and thanks for being here ❤️ I hope you learned something and enjoyed!! You and I can mask and sip our matcha together lol
Hi Cassandra I’ve been searching around for different things and came a cross one of your videos and then watched several more you seem to have great pointer tips and tricks and definitely doing your research I do have a few questions to ask if you don’t mind. What kind of green tea and other things do you put in your tea ? Any brand names you can share maybe I missed it? I’m about 32 yrs old I have been struggling with oily skin and what I think I have cystic acne that started when at the end of my pregnancy at the age of 21 since then it’s been on and off for me I’ve tried many things I did find one product a lady made that I purchased from a farms market near me and loved it but when I went back she wasn’t there anymore and I was back to square one, except going to a dermatologist because my insurance did not cover it and nothing has worked or works for a few I do know stress is related my life has been a roller coaster and I’m hiring a point that I need to figure something out with my life and my appearance and how I feel. I found a lot of what you said very interesting and dermatology has been one of them I know the schooling processes is very long and I have completely because of my age I am curious to know if you are in school for it and for how long and was wondering how old you were? health has also been another interested of mine but there’s just so much stuff out there these days that trying to do some research becomes overwhelming . So I guys I asking if your able to answer my question and give me any pointers or recommendations that would be great!
yes it does but it has something that prevent the caffeine to. give you that jittery anxious feeling, actually u feel calm, i have caffeine sensitivity but i did not feel it, u should try it
Yes isn’t that crazy?! Green tea is the leaves soaked in water and some of the benefits leak out. Matcha is green tea leaves (usually baby ones!) ground up and ingested whole!
