i think removing the idea of anti aging is genius. Truly if we all just focused on have healthy skin and doing the most healthy things for our skin, i think it wouldn't have so much implict self-hatred in it

@melaniemurphyofficial Год назад

THIS ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

@brendasnow8255 Год назад

I’m old, and I’ve deliberately not done any of the things I thought I might, like lifting my eyelids. My eyes are still my best feature, other than my complexion, (even with some wrinkles) and I still get compliments. You can’t completely prevent looking older, and there comes a point with people who use artificial means, like Botox and fillers, where they look silly. Bodies age, too, and a lifted face looks incongruous. Drink water, eat healthfully, use sunscreen, exercise some, and enjoy wherever you are in life.

@kassedina Год назад

Yes! I loved this point as well. We're lucky if we have the opportunity to age!

@yos.5684 Год назад

I'm coming to terms with the fact (although I'm still 32) wrinkles and stuff aren't a problem per se because what I should focus instead is in looking the best way possible at any age by taking care of yourself in and out. I still look younger than my age (a 3rd-year uni student asked me the other day what degree I was studying!!) and I have to admit that I was blessed with good skin genetics, but I know it might not be like this forever. I see other women and men who are stunning even if they look roughly their age and have wrinkles, but most of them you can notice have taken care of their bodies and have a youthful and joyful attitude. A cousin of mine has just turned 50 and she's got the normal wrinkles in her face and some sagging but she's absolutely gorgeous still, turning heads and you can't really notice the age difference when being with her because of the way she thinks, behaves and dresses. In the past, when I was very unhappy, sad, overtired and depressed I looked older and not too well overall. This is not to blame someone who can't help going through it, but just something I've noticed and that is very true.

@spidersNsquirrels Год назад

@Yo S. I'm 31 and going through some hard feelings about aging but moving more towards acceptance now, I think alot of our hatred of aging comes from society/social media

@valeriasanchez6720 Год назад

@WellWithHels Год назад

Love that perspective 🙏🏼❤

@justwatchingandcommenting Год назад

That makes me even happier than ever that I never was someone who was into makeup much. Not that it's a bad thing, but I never wanted to waste my own time to make myself younger. Because first of all, I have kinda good genes, so I'm mistakenly held for being in my twenties and that all without makeup or crazy skin care. And I smoke or drink sometimes. But I don't have the focus on my wrinkles or anything and I guess bothering less, makes you glow somehow, too. 😅

@ivybroooke Год назад

This reminded me how when I was a teen and in my early twenties I literally tried not to SMILE to avoid wrinkles!!! I’ve since embraced smiling and will welcome any skin consequences. Older women are beautiful and amazing, and smile lines are the badge of a life well lived

@@thedailywisdom1851 What is and isn't old is always very relative. I remember being in my early teens thinking someone who's above 18 is old. But that changed over the years. Now in my mid twenties I no longer think that's old... nor do I think being in your 30s is old. I'm sure as I'll get older what I consider and don't consider older will change. :)

For all my people who' s following a beyond strict healthy lifestyle and doing their skincare religiously without improving or even worsening: *YOU ARE NOT DOING ANYTHING WRONG. SOME TYPES OF ACNE DON' T REACT TO NUTRITION OR GOOD HABITS. IT' S NOT YOUR FAULT BUT GENETICS* A good pro derm will help you. Good luck 🧛🏻‍♀️🖤

@miralatif5175 Год назад

It’s also worth it to get your blood work checked. I did and I found out the root cause of my acne is my elevated testosterone levels. It feels good to know it’s genetic and understand the root cause. Now I know how to treat it in a way that’s not damaging to my body chemistry / hormones

@ShortGirlsClimbCounters Год назад

Yes, it's hormones!!!

@Urmomlolllllll Год назад

Agree. Hormones control everything. I had acne for the first time in my life earlier this year when my daughter was hospitalized. The horror and stress of seeing her suffer broke me mentally and physically. Once she was fine, it still took months of lots of sleep and daily walks in nature to calm myself down which cleared the acne. About a month ago I saw a derm about the scars and they did a chemical peel + a session of micro needling. Now it is as if nothing ever happened.

@agnesmarion8161 Год назад

Few truer things have been said. I'm 27 and have had painful cystic acne, perfect skin soon after, only to have acne again...I tell you, groundhogs day. I have been the healthiest person I know, not to mention the most disciplined with my skincare, and it hurts to see the breakouts and my skin not responding. Makes me feel like I'm not feminine enough, and unworthy. But at the end of the day this does not define me. My skin and my acne is not the measure of my worth, and shouldn't be for anyone else. We must shift our focus to what truly matters in our everyday life, and our beauty alas, will be forgotten. It certainly won't have had a greater impact to the world. Humans are capable of so much more, why hinder ourselves!

Will you continue with Pixi glow ( is it safe for sensitive, acne prone) or Lactic acid good genes after the birth of your baby girl? Instead of harsher retinoids? Imagine if you were sensitive to glycolic, salicylic, retinoids/tretinion what product would you love to use for gentle anti aging?

@hinabokhari7520 Год назад

Do you prefer Cerave cleansing oil to balms for acne prone skin? Could you please share your favourite blush , highlighter, brow pencil , tinted balm you wear daily? Which foundation you prefer as your base , what do you use to prep your complexion? Is Juno super food oil safe for acne prone and lovely alternatives for those who can't tolerate harsh ingredients like retinoids/tretinion/vitc/salicylic/glycolic ? I have similar skin type like yours, except more sensitive than yours , wish for beautiful anti aging serum any suggestions?💕

This was lovely! I’m glad you said something about taking care of your hands because that is something often not talked about. A elderly woman I used to know once told me one regret she had is not taking better care of her hands. She said a person’s hands really shows signs of aging a lot faster than you’d think and every time you apply sunscreen, you need to apply it to the back of your hands as well! I hadn’t considered that before, but she’s not wrong, so I took that advice to heart.

Oh my god, you're STUNNING. Cannot cope. Thank you for all the tips - I am 30 so will now start topping up my spf and will the facial massage and to sleep earlier. Already got my silk pillow case, spf 50 daily and have focused more on keeping my skin really moisturised over using a crazy amount of actives - best not to stress the skin out and cause damage in my opinion. I have started using medik8's level 0 retinal and that is investment skincare item to avoid filler etc but will never say never about botox.

@Crushablewineclub Год назад

Your skin looks amazing Melanie it is very clear and glowy ☺️ I’m 26 and since the beginning of this year I started to include my neck in my skincare routine. And it’s also very important to apply SPF to our hands I don’t really do this tho 😬 I take my make up off as soon as I get home from work and college it’s not that I don’t like it being on I just like to take it off and have a clear face so I can apply my serums and moisturiser etc 😁☺️ I’m lucky I never suffered with acne and I have good skin I don’t get many breakouts I like having no make up days I never felt shy or embarrassed going out with no make up 🙏🏻 I know some ppl hate going out with no make up on.

The idea of a world with just artistic make up like colours and glitters and bright pigment etc. And just skincare without the need to "airbrush" or completely cover our skin with foundation is a dream. I feel like I look either the same or worse with a full face of makeup on and i just got sick of the work to get it all off and how bad my skin felt after. I've been just investing in skincare since my late 20's and been using acids the past year or so. The ordinary is amazing for affordable and high quality products.

Ive turned 30 and im not foing for anti aging, im not ashamed to age. I look older than i did and thats fine. My biggest tips is sunscreen, change your pillow cases even if you dont change your sheets, you dont need soap on your face (there are cleansers with no soap) and its okay if you go through periods where you dont do a whole routine. A quick wash, moisturizer, and sunscreen is really all you need.

@CodexPotter Год назад

I'm probably always going to have some hormonal acne, i have PCOS and i learned to care more about the health of my skin, feeling comfortable and not dry, protecting from the sun as well as other weather (winter wind is horrible), and that's really all i need. Most skin care honestly feels good but it won't really undo aging. Time goes forward and doesn't go back. Sleep and drink water honestly helps with acne, wrinkles, dryness, dullness.

@maddyG7414 Год назад

I turned 31 recently and have always been ‘against’ cosmetic procedures such as Botox, fillers etc. However, I had a poor lifestyle in my teens/early twenties, my weight fluctuated a lot and I ended up losing a bit of volume in my face, resulting in visible smile lines, (the one side is worse than the other). Creeping into my late twenties, every time I looked in the mirror, the only thing I would focus on was these smile lines, I felt like they made me look older than I was, so last year I decided to get a bit of filler… It was one of the best things I’ve done to boost my confidence, I instantly felt ‘prettier’ which sounds ridiculous I know. There’s nothing wrong with getting little ‘tweaks’ done if you are insecure about something and it gets you down every time you look at yourself. I’m getting a top up in Jan.😚👍🏻

@melaniemurphyofficial Год назад

THIS! I think what matters most is that you feel good about yourself and if a bit of filler helps you to love the skin you are in there's NO harm in it! It just terrifies ME, in the same way I'd have been very very nervous getting a hair transplant (which my husband did!) ... best thing he ever did in terms of taking charge of his own confidence, I have no issue whatsoever with people doing what works for them

@SquishSquish Год назад

@melaniemurphyofficial That's one thing that annoys me about some influencers. You can just tell they've had fillers, but don't admit to it and claim they are all natural. It doesn't set a very good example. There's absolutely nothing wrong with it and I feel like a lot of people feel shameful about it because a lot of celebrities don't admit to it.

I´m so glad I got to this video. I turned 29 years old this year and the age gets to me. I know we can´t reverse it, but at least we can help our skin to look and feel better. I actually have woken up to fine lines being more visible in the morning, and I just looked a lot more dry? I do use night cream but I still could see my fine lines being so deep. I have now bought silk for the pillows and hope it will improve. I have also noticed that I got more visible lines on my right side of the face but it´s because I have ALWAYS LOVED to sleep on my right side. My left side barely has anything. I hope I can help my skin out more now.

i'm also trying to phase out base makeup cause it doesnt look good on my skin anymore up close and it drives me crazy. but i still love makeup so much and the ritual and artistry of putting it on so i'm trying to find a balance. and it just looks so good from afar too... im still trying to come to terms with it and being a makeup free person after being a makeup lover since i was a little kid. i used to love eyeshadow looks but it doesnt look good on me without any base makeup

I'm 34 and my skin looks better than it ever did as a teen or in my 20s. I use less things, and I love myself more. I stopped picking at it and hating it so much and changing products all the time. I don't use botox, just a natural oil, a warm rag, moisturizer and a tinted spf if I wear something out. I use Japanese face tape at night on my forehead and I guasha to help with lymphatic drainage. I'm happy with it and I wish I would have learned that less is more a long time ago.

A lot of it is false/filtering OR good lighting and a lot of makeup! All we should worry about is doing what we can to care for our skin. If we're doing that we really can do no more. We absolutely do not need to spend a fortune or compare ourselves to these false images xxx

@Manderss Год назад

@@Imtrying_girl It could just be a matter of finding a better-quality satin! I’ve had the same two satin (100% polyester) pillowcases for about twenty years (they’ve been with me since childhood lol), washed in hot, washed in cold, thrown in the dryer, etc. and they look like new somehow. I’ve noticed mine seem to feel a bit sturdier/thicker than some of the super “flowy” ones I’ve seen in stores, so could be a tighter weave? Not sure how that stuff works but… they are out there!! Haha :)

I've been trying to sleep on my back because I've heard it reduces eye bags. I heard this from another RU-vidr, I think she's a dermatologist. I've noticed it has helped with that. On the topic of acne scars, I used an 8% AHA face cream in my 20s. I saw a real difference after using it. It's too bad I can't find it anymore because it has been discontinued. It was also good for fine lines. I'm in my 30s too. :D Side note: Another benefit for sleeping on your back is that you'll prevent fine lines from forming when you're sleeping. I used to sleep on my left side and because of it, there are more fine lines on my left under eye than my right. 🙃

Silk pillow cases ( as in 100% silk) is awesome. But only the stone washed silk variety! Smooth silk is too slippery and also it can get a bit hot, while stone washed silk is more even in temperature.

@puntco Год назад

I was absolutely drowning in information about skin care and what would be best for my skin (as if I really understand what kind of skin I have). I found Noie, this brand asks you lots of different questions and provide a cream to your specific needs. At the same time I also cut out my lactose intake, but my skin has cleared up since then. Saved me a lot of hassle with finding the right product. I donno, maybe anyone out there is also struggling and they might be a good option to try. Also! Yes about taking your neck into your face skincare routine, but don't forget your chest. I also take the skin on my chest (above and between my boobs) into my face skin care routine. :)

@jessicastrydom2398 Год назад

On the point of side sleeping - pay attention if you tend to sleep on one side repeatedly. I have so many more eye wrinkles on the left compare to the right side of my face. This is definitely one thing I wish I knew10 years ago...

@haileycooper6252 Год назад

@user-pq9cy8tx4r Год назад

A derm yrs ago told me the #1 reason for wrinkles is sleeping on ur stomach.. no one talks about that so.. cool, thnx ! They even have special pillows if you do sleep on ur stomach w special cutouts so you don't smoosh ur face, just search there's loads on amazon etc, great vid and accurate at that, yep, a great retinol, vit C serum, cleanser obviously, spf / moisturizer is all you really need, any and all skin types, bc retinol improves acne as well as wrinkles, I know I've been on it over a decade for acne purposes and nothing works quite like it, thnx for this excellent vid!!! 👌 And yes, I do satin pillowcases but mainly cos I have curly wavy hair and it's good for that I read, don't remember last I used cotton pillowcases ! Yes neck, so important!!! Everything u do to face do to neck that's the real tell tale of someone's age, I stopped base too, yes same I found it aged me, if I need coverage I'll spot w some concealer/ a bb cream, powder on forehead only (my forehead is v oily), this whole vid is spot on 👌👌👌 yes spf indoors too, you really covered about everything, I follow many derms n this all pretty much checks out, thank you, great stuff 👍👍👍👍👍👌✅✅

How skin is literally so interesting, I’ve struggled with acne since forever and I’ve always been told I’ll grow out of it. Have tried everything nothing worked besides putting lemon on my acne scars everyday it has gone away. But for having acne forever and doing lemon my skin does look better than most ppl my age. It’s so odd sometimes how skin is.

I'm a pilates and yoga instructor and I can attest to diet (low sugar low lactose) and water (no alcohol) comprises of 80% of what your skin looks like into your 30s. It's harder to develop the habit of working out as your older but it's doable! Start soon

@InimeKai Год назад

People don't need to limit lactose when they're not intolerant or negatively affected by it lol

@soccergirldiva Год назад

@@InimeKai I am nearly finished with my bachelor in Nutrition and Health and I agree with you, that lactose is not linked to bad skin. Certain people, largely from specific population groups, do not tolerate dairy well so *for some* it can have a negative impact on things like the skin, but it’s not a general thing. Really bothers me when people make this blanket statement 🥲 (and all dairy is also not created equally)

@InimeKai Год назад

@@soccergirldiva it's a really bad trend on the internet to recommend really restrictive diets to random people like it's no big deal. It's one thing to tell people to reduce junk food and eat healthier, it's another thing to tell people they should just completely stop eating entire food groups when you're not even their doctor (why should every random person want to go dairy or gluten free when they may tolerate both perfectly well...)

I started a proper skincare routine at age 25, I know technically it should have been 20. I never wear foundation (not against ppl who use foundation, I just don’t) I do my best with my skincare routine. SPF, hylaronic acid, cleanser, toner, and hydrating cream :3 I also take supplements from hum nutrition, fish oil, hylaronic acid (glow sweet glow) (I know I spelled hylaronic acid wrong 😂) I will keep in mind to use the silk pillowcase ^.^ I just turned 30 this year. All I can say is I do my best for my skincare, I know you cannot avoid aging, I’m embracing it and doing my best ☺️ btw I just wanted to say you are beautiful, you honestly look like in your 20s and also I love your accent!! ❤

You have gorgeous skin and all the lotions and potions help- no alcohol will definitely help but it's most likely genetics. I have good skin but I get it from my dad. It could be better as I don't always take care of it as well as I should but considering my past lifestyle and still sometimes unhealthy eating habits it ain't half bad. I do wear spf50 on my face every day though.

It sound like your acne could be caused by genetics or hormones. Make sure that your derm asks for all kind of blood tests and works hand by hand with an ob/gyn. Good luck! You are on the right way ✨🧛🏻‍♀️🖤

Try cetaphil oily skin cleanser. My skin has improved massively acne wise since I started using it. The only problem is they chamged the formula and I prefer the original. I also use cetaphil spf50. My skin loves it so defo give it a try if you haven't already.

I recently learnt that acne is partially related to insulin resistance, which is why it's common when we're teenagers and growing. Balancing blood sugar levels has been very helpful for me 🙂 It's difficult though as stress/lack of sleep/shift work affects insulin even without any diet changes.

@winolalobo1595 Год назад

Absolutely agree. When I avoid sugar and processed food, I just don't break out.

@JennaRenee Год назад

Yes! Also though food intolerances will do it as well!!! If you aren’t aware that you are intolerant and continue ingesting whatever it may be, it can really effect your skin. I had that problem. Once I found out I was Celiac and cut out gluten, the redness, hormonal acne, and weird clear bubble rash things I would get on my neck and chest left. My fingers and toes even used to get red and I couldn’t figure out why... once I stopped eating that though, even that stopped. It’s insane what food intolerances do to your body without you even knowing.

I also thankfully got to a point where I feel like my face looks better without foundation than with it. I'll use concealer for redness/pimples/veins but I don't need to worry about the creasing etc. I do struggle with whether to do a skin care routine shortly after I get home or not. Because obviously there are a few hours between me getting home and getting ready for bed. And if I take off all the make up and do my skin care routine after getting home, do I just redo the whole thing in a few hours before going to bed? It wouldn't feel right not to wash my face and put on all that stuff right before bed.

@melaniemurphyofficial Год назад

I feel like doing skincare once or twice a day (thoroughly!) is adequate! A lot of skincare experts recommend a very simple morning routine, mainly to remove oils etc from overnight and of course ... moisture and SPF! But in the evening unless you're doing like really intense exercise, I don't think your face will be any 'dirtier', it will have fab ingredients penetrating it instead of makeup and makeup is definitely 'less great' for the skin than skincare
