Interesting .Just one fun thing to know pal about "sun exposition"(beyond UVs) :high exposition through life is correlated with + 10 years of life expectency compared to the mean ( even though skin cancer is prevalent in this population)
One of the best moisturizers I’ve ever come across is liettleextra riceberry face moisturizer. It is good quality, no extra greasiness, and the texture is very good. All the ingredients inside is so carefully measured that it finally makes your skin feel so fresh and moisturized. I think this is one of the best quality fragrance free face creams. It feels ultra-light. It’s fast-absorbing and works well under my makeup, mattifying my skin. I would advise everyone to use this moisturizer as a daily use moisturizer for better skin glow.
Man this is so relatable, I swear the first time I even heard of the work skincare was like a year ago, I never even thought people do it on daily basis unless they have some sort of a disease
@@lotus6696 In the night. Mix a small pea sized amount with an ample amount of moisturizer on your hand and then apply it on the face excluding the eye area.
The perfect skincare routine: Don't put way too much and too many creams on your face, at least not every god damn day!! Also, eat healthy and don't stress too much. Good luck!
If you could only see my before and after lol. I use tret and limit my sugar intake. My skin went from having tons of cystic acne to clear. But still I have scars from it but working on fixing it lol.
Water is the only thing that can “rehydrate” the skin. Moisturizers unfortunately often don’t contain anything but oils and silicones that will temporarily make the skin feel smoother and better, but skin will continue to dry out and be rough, patchy, or flakey. If you want hydrated skin and often find that your skin is peeling, flaking, cracking, dull, dry, and weak.. you may want to try increasing your water intake, so your body actually has more water to deliver to your face and other areas of the skin, and use a hydrating gel or lotion that contains a generous amount of just… water… and some really good humectant ingredients like hyaluronic acid, glycerin, honey, and others. Just remember, humectants are hygroscopic and have to pull or “draw” that water from somewhere… and in their case, they’re drawing the water from the lower level of your dermis and delivering it to the upper/top most layer of skin.. so again, if your body doesn’t have enough water to begin with, you’re not going to see much improvement and may cause yourself some issues. There’s one exception though, if the surrounding humidity is greater than 70% humectants can actually draw water molecules from the surrounding air and deliver those to the surface of your skin! So… you maybe would like a humidifier or little face misting device!
Yes and no, moisturisers do have oils and silicones, but they can trap water and limit transepidermal water loss, and most moisturisers have water to begin with. On top of that if you’ve just come out of the shower, and your face is damp, then that water can also get trapped in the skin with a moisturiser. So silicones and oils still serve their purpose, they don’t hydrate the skin but they’re necessary to moisturise the skin. You are right about drinking water but within reason, there is a point where drinking more water doesn’t effect the skin. And usually the skin is the last to get water, usually it goes to organs and stuff, which overall is good and your skin will benefit from that. But water isn’t a magical ingredient, if you drink whenever you’re thirsty, you’ll be fine. Drinking excess amounts of water doesn’t usually help. Humectants aren’t like magnets that suck up water that get close to it, they do still need to get into contact with water. So you don’t necessarily have to worry about humectants stealing your moisture from deeper layers of the skin (if they can even get there). On top of that, most hydrating serums and toners already come with water in them, so they already have plenty of water to hold onto without needing to steal our moisture.
Retinol is suggested only if you're above 25. Younger ppl dont need to apply so soon. I personally like to include Toner in the routine just to add lil bit more hydration
That cerave moiaturizer messed my skin up so bad. I never thought I would have that bad of a reaction especially because it is always said its non comodogenic. I had the most painful under skin pimples of my life. 4 weeks later and I still recover from that. Its crazy. My skin was alsmost clear for years until using that cream😢😅
I started focusing on hydration and skin barrier, and my pimples literally feel like they heal better and faster. First, I spray my own mixture of glycerine and water (2:1) on my face and let it partially dry. Then I use a ceramide lotion with hyaluronic acid, and cholesterol. Extra is a niacinamide cream for acne scars, and a sulfur spot treatment for active pimples. Pretty satisfied with my cheap skincare after struggling for years.
My body neck down has perfect skin. All I do is wash with a gentle soap. My face is messed up, super dry, even though I use moisturizer. Wish it was the other way around 😢
This happened when RU-vid told me my face needed a different skin care routine to my body. I bet you've damaged your skin barrier on your face. Go back to 3 steps. No exfoliating actives.(no AHAS, retinoids, etc) Cleanser, hydrating toner, moisturiser Sunscreen if you live in a hot place with UV rating above 3.
This is such a slap to people who say "you don't need skincare"," you don't have to wash ur wash everyday", sunscreen causes cancer" when said by a dermatologist. Thank you for your time . Also you should add that teenagers shouldn't use retinioid until they r prescribed to them , or they have really bad acne or other skin conditions . And ALWAYS RESEARCH before going out and buying anything for your skin .So unless ur prescribed, or do ur research and confirm that retinoid is ok for you, don't use it . There are many actives that can help for different skin problems , go for only those you need eg - salicylic acid for acne , azelaic acid for acne scars etc .Also " too much of a good thingg , is too much of a good thing "- a quote by dr Shereen idriss who is a board certified derm , so don't go around putting stuff on ur face that it doesn't need . Retinoids r THE skingredient for people 25 or above .
PLEASE only use retinoids, if not perscribed by a derm, if ur 25+ bc young skin gets irritated by it, and please exfoliate 2-3 times a week bc u will need to exfoliate more but not too much
If you have oily skin you can use the cleanser in the morning, if you hve dry skin you can skip cleanser. Simply wash your face, use moisturizer, and spf nd you're good to go. At night, cleanse, moisturize, retinoid, moisturize
SPF 30 sunscreen blocks 96.7% of UV rays. SPF 50 blocks 98%. Save your money. Forgetting to use sunscreen once or twice has a much bigger impact than using a higher SPF.
It's your skin, why care about their opinion? They can project their own beliefs on themselves and their own skin; but as long as the skin is yours and only yours, it is your choice to do what you want with it.
Okay so i hateee how greasy spf feels on my skin since my t zone os super oily. Any lightweight spf's that are available in europe? I live in the Czech Republic. We do have sephora here so maybe something from there? I could really use the tips!
1.Cleanser 2. Moisturizer 3. Spf(in the day) 4. Retinoid(only at night, don't forget sunscreen the next day, it's a potent ingredient tht might cause purging and peeling, so do your research before starting)
