FR! Like they know what people want these days, aesthetic package, basically if they hired like 1 chemist and 20 aesthetic teens I’m pretty sure they’ll sell well.
j w me too. to the first impression i was like, well he's not going to say but he's talking about white valley girls and i'm not white. and then he called me out and MEEEEEE-
@@tawa1353 hi! If you have sensitive skin or new to chemical exfoliation, try something that is a little less harsch like TO lactic acid, also patch testing is very important 💫
drunk elephant is good, glossier is not. i still think de is overpriced, but it is still one of the best brands in the us market. paula's choice is still the best and most worth the price tag, tho, imo
well if you care heres my routine that makes my skin clear: -neutrogena ultra gentle cleanser (used with that spinny-brush thing and/or that vibrating silicone scrubby-thing) -then i use the pink grapefruit neutrogena moisturizer -mario badescu and/or garnier skin active rose spray (i use this jade roller thingy from dollar tree after LMAO) also i have oily skin in certain places of my face and I can get really dry + all this stuff is from Walmart ahaha so vv affordable :)) hope this helps !!!!😌✨💗
one way ive heard about how to figure out if your skin or oily, dry, normal, or combination is at the end of the day take a piece of toilet paper or tissue paper and put one on your forehead, chin, and both cheeks. if they stick, you’re oily, if they stick for a second and then fall you’re normal, and if they fall immediately you’re dry. if they stick in some places and fall in some places you’re combination (most commonly they’ll stick on your forehead or chin, that’s called your t-zone) but always remember that wether you’re dry or oily or normal your skin always needs both cleansing and moisture and often oily/dry skin can be caused by too much of one and not enough of the other
I had struggled with acne since I was 13 years old and discovered Glossier at 26. A year later and I have nearly flawless skin. I love your videos, respect your opinions and definitely see your point of view, but I've personally never been so happy with my complexion.
@@zoefisher2142 I’m in love with their milky jelly cleanser, “The Solution” AHABHA toner and their super pure niacinamide/zinc serums. Life changing for me. My skin loves their products.
That stuff isnt a great “cleanser” but its a good cleansing milk to get off makeup. Its not gonna cure your breakout or really do anything because (like all their products) they target towards like perfect clear skin im already pretty girls so this shit doesnt do much but its cool
i have it and like @@avasava7720 said, it’s good for taking makeup off but it’s not a good everyday cleanser.. i only use it to take off makeup and as a gentle cleanser when i just feel like i wanna wash my face
African black soap will save a life and a wallet. Shea butter is good for...everything. Everything. I wish everyone would know. And olive oil. Spread the word.
Hey ! I hear a lot of people talking bad about coconut and olive oil bc it cloges your pores. I bought a natural soap which includes olive oil since i have very dry skin which i use to get rid of my make up. Do you think it’s also good for my skin ? 😅
I dislike watching youtube user reviews on products, because I've felt like buying it based on most reviews on here has never benefitted me. But to start off, I love how you get right to the point of every product, and you make it short. You are so informative on what to use, why to use it, and why not to use a certain ingredient. I think it's really easy to learn the ingredient lists pros and cons based on your opinions, for users like me who have no idea how to understand the ingredient list and want to learn. Third, even though you make it short and right to the point, you still show us your personality here and there in the video, which makes the person watching it immediately connect to you, you're funny and relatable but don't waste people's time. And fourth I also noticed we have the exact same fav products, haha so will definitely look at your opinions before buying something idk. So in general I don't depend on youtube to buy products, I always like to research myself based on my needs rather than what's popular, but after finding your videos: I'm really looking to hear your opinions on all products int the future. Really do appreciate it.
Ok here i go They all adopt a child Brad mondo helps with hair care and hyram with skincare chole ting helps eith working out and james charles as the makeup artisr
I’m slowly realizing how similar the packaging of my local “Target’s” skincare line looks to glossier, as well as their makeup (for example, one of their blush products looks just like glossier’s cloud paint stuff) and there is a lot of pink packaging
Lightning Emi it has rose water which is a type of natural fragrance sorry not trying to argue or be rude just want ppl to know glossier isn’t the best
my favorite thing about glossier is their amazing customer service! If you buy something and you do'nt like it, they are very good about addressing your concerns and getting you a refund! Probably too late to ask now, Hyram, but they definitely would have refunded that sunscreen if you reached out last year!
I was watching your “the ordinary” video (the first one I’ve watched of yours) and then this one auto played and when you showed your manager I realized I went to high school with her!
The Bubblewrap is the most amazing product i have ever used. I have dry, puffy, and sensitive eyes and i have so many issues with under eye creams. I gave up on them and just used regular moisturizer. Even with that, nothing helped, until Bubblewrap. I can’t even begin to explain how much this product saved my eyes. Less puffy, no more lizard skin, no more cracked skin. Another bonus, it doesn’t have caffeine!!!! Caffeine in eye cream is bullshirt and does nothing but irritate and dry mine out more. I legit squealed when you showed Bubblewrap as your favorite product!
beverly dejesus you will not be disappointed. It isn’t too thick that it will give you millia, but it isn’t so thin it does nothing. It is a nice silky consistency and it packs a punch. I cannot day anything bad about it honestly. I have been disappointed by so many products (looking at you Kiehl’s avocado eye treatment). It sits well under makeup, it is so comfortable, i don’t normally wear eye cream overnight, but i have put this on and it didn’t make my eyes puffy in the morning, which everything except rosehip seed oil and aquaphor/Vaseline does. I just cannot stop gushing about it. I really hope it works for you!!!
Def try aveeno for facial eczema. My face was nearly falling off in 2016, couldn't go to college it was so bad. Aveeno did wonders. If you're in the UK you can get it on the NHS ;)
It is awful in the winter/spring, but my under eyes get so dry they crack and in the crease of my wrinkles so i have open wounds and I’ll only put aquafor or Vaseline there. They are also flaky and bumpy so i have to be extremely careful. I got this at the end of spring when the cracking, etc. was clearing up. I am not comfortable recommending it to you, i would talk to your doctor and have them look through the ingredients and do their professional thang! My eyes also, no matter the weather or season, they are so swollen in the mornings, especially puffy if i put skincare under them. I have found Rosehip seed oil and this doesn’t make them puffier, which rocks. i use an ice roller i got from Amazon that is awesome. (I also will ice roll my face for 10 to 15 mine during my self care time, oh man is it soothing) i DO feel comfortable recommending one of those, as long as ice or cold doesn’t exacerbate anything. I also get what i can only describe as lizard skin, it’s not milia, 100% certain of that, but this has plumped up my skin that it has become noticeably smoother. I encourage you to bring it up Bubblewrap to your doctor and ask them. I’m sorry :(
Glossier is actually super understanding about you not liking a product! I've had maybe 3 products I wasn't happy with, and they refunded me instantly and let me keep them. Just reach out to them!
@シꨄsholaꨄ yeah but if like their stuff, it's worth it. I have different brands but my glossier products are the ones I always find myself reaching for.
@@katiepadilla7315 this!!! I stopped using their cleanser even though it worked for me to try other approved products and all of the other ones broke me out bad. If it works for you keep using it!
Ppl need to realize that everyones skin is different, just bc it doesnt work for some ppl doesnt mean it wont work for you. Glossier cleared my skin up so fast
I use glossier products and when he was talking about the type of person who uses it, I was like "nah" at the la girl type and I swear my jaw DROPPED when he talked about the raging homosexual-
Glossier is a scam when it comes to their Balm Dot Coms. It's literally scented vaseline in a tube. And the highly-raved Milky Jelly Cleanser broke me out because they put in so much of that rose water. Never again will I fall for their cute packaging. I am going back to using my La Roche Posay products thank you very much.
L Atlason i love love love love love love LOVE the balm dot coms. When I first got it I actually compared to Vaseline, and they feel totally different.
Natalie Ann I just think it’s overpriced when you can get a large tub of pertrolatum at the dollar store and get similar results. And Glossier adds Rosemary extract to their balms which is a known irritant. But hey, if it’s working for you keep on using it. :D
I've tried a few things and here's what I've found if you're interested (I have dry acne-prone skin). The Good: Soy cleanser -- it last forever and doesn't strip the skin Umbrian Clay mask -- Last a long time, I personally find that it does a great job at tackling redness. I've used it as an overnight spot treatment and have woken up to noticeably smaller and less red pimples. My main con is the price but the travel size is more feasible and still last a while. The Meh: Rose Hydration mask -- I guess it does add a little hydration, but not enough to justify the price. It smells nice and is a fun experience but it took me forever to get through just because I never used it since it didn't do much. Hydrating eye cream -- I get eczema on my eyelids and it did help calm down a flare up and prevent another, but not any better than other eye creams that are cheaper. The Bad: Lip balm -- I got a sample of this from sephora and at first I liked it but after a few days of consistent use I noticed that it seemed to be drying out my lips. On top of that the skin around my mouth was noticeably red and irritated. The only plus is the smell (similar to lime skittles).
I’m not a professional but here’s my two cents on the matter anyway: If I remember correctly, petrolatum isn’t a hydrative ingredient, just protecting, sealing away any already existing moisture to the lips/skin so it doesn’t leave the skin f.ex. in cold/windy weather
Thank you for speaking up about chemical sunscreens! I really want more brands to come out with tinted mineral sunscreens in lots of shades so that more people of more skin complexions can use them!
Could you review "It Cosmetics's" skincare line? I've been looking at the ingredients and they all seem to be super beneficial? (like fermented rice, niacinamide, squalane, etc.) although I can't say that my opinion is actually reliable.
They have tonssssss of fragrance in them! My mom has used it for years, so I was staying over at her house one day and left my skincare at my house. I used her stuff, went to sleep, and woke up with huge zits and redness! I also have sensitive skin so it could’ve just been my skin being super temperamental! I would personally try k-beauty brands instead bc they have super similar ingredients you’ve just listed and a lot of it is much cheaper!
I love, LOVE their secret sauce moisturizer for nighttime, on my third jar I think. It has nice ingredients, moisturizes so nicely and leaves a gorgeous glow without greasiness. I know it has fragrance as an ingredient, but imo it isnt heavy at all and doesnt bother me or my skin, and I'm actually usually pretty sensitive to fragrance in my products especially if they have a "warm" scent.
Before L'oreal bought them, they put out good product. After they have been bought everything become a marketing scheme, good ingredient become bottom of the list after phenoxyethanol (which is preservative) but still advertise as usual. Another sell-out imo.
Jen luvs reviews does great ingredient breakdowns and has some very strong feelings on It Cosmetics skin care. I would recomend checking some of her videos out.
"The Solution" completely changed my skin, but then my skin developed some sort of tolerance to it and it stopped working after using it everyday for a year. Also was very excited for the Niacinimide Super Pure but it did nothing- I've ordered The Ordinary to replace it. Also I've heard that the bubble wrap burns some people but then have heard really good things as well.
This honestly explained so much. BEFORE I used any Glossier products my skin (although not flawless) was pretty damn good. Flash forward to about 8 months later and I get breakouts and uneven texture on my skin. HOW CAN I REPAIR THIS 😭😭😭😭💕
AuroraSK two words ... Korean skincare do your research on products for your skin type, when to apply actives etc also don’t just buy the “popular” products because they may not get on with your skin type but if you do buy a popular product buy them for your skin type also avoid Sephora go to yes style they always have a sale on and are affordable shipping is a bit pricy and expedited shipping takes like a week or two but it’s worth it
David Gee Thank you, you’re an angel! I’ll look into getting more Korean skincare for sure. I have no idea why I haven’t looked through yesstyle . I got too caught up in the Glossier hype ... never again @_@ my skin and I thank you
Try not to eat too much junk food, beacuse ur diet plays a role as well. Clean your phone, And wash ur face after exercising or sweating too much. And yeah like the comment above said, Korean skincare products are good, there r many brands check the ingredients, reviews, etc for it. And like use masks (not everyday tho)
@@smexypanda89 There are also a lot of other asian beauty sites out there that carry the same items as yesstyle but for less because YS definitely has a bit of a markup imo. I only go to them when I can't find the product elsewhere. Also not as hyped but always have quality products and at the forefront of skincare imo along with Korean products are Japanese products. So that is another option as well. But number 1 thing: Try to avoid fragrance and essential oils (natural fragrance) in products like hyram and dermatologists recommend. They can trigger delayed onset of breakouts for some people. Also look into things that will repair your skin barrier (to make your skin happy again). Ceramides and niacinamide is your friend. Brands like Cerave, though not flashy or visually appealing, are very effective and formulated with skin health in mind rather than marketing a brand/selling an experience. They are bang for your buck and you can run to the drugstore to get them immediately. Tbh, I would try to heal/calm your skin with these kind of brands first before going the asian beauty route.
Light Y it made me skin super dry and sore/red and broke me out. As soon as I stopped using it things went back to normal. Everyone is different though so I hope it works for you! :)
I watched this while using glossier solution lol. I love the stuff, helps my acne a lot. If there’s a similar product without the fragrance, I’ll try it.
Athenathegreyt IT REALLY DOES!!!! I received the mango balm dot com for my birthday recently and I was like.... wait this smells just like the mango hi chew and I was kinda shook lol
it’s so good to see someone in the beauty / skincare community talk so much about how wasteful the products can be and actively tries to get ones that are better for our world~
I actually love their Exfoliating Skin Perfecter 10% solution because you didn't mention the one thing that makes the formula unique: it has a little glycerine in it, making it hydrating. I have EXTREMELY oily skin, but at 59 I have to moisturize a little now. This solution sweeps my skin clean but moisturizes just enough that I literally don't have to use any other moisture (which makes me look like a grease ball). I get compliments all the time.
I like all the Glossier stuff I use, and don’t agree with the “Types” at the beginning, BUT I am sooo thankful to hear about the negatives of the sunscreen. Thank you.
I know I’m super late to the party on this, but I can’t help being offended on your behalf that someone would ask you to review a chemical sunscreen. You only mention coral bleaching in about 96% of your videos. Thank you for expressing concern for the health of the environment in addition to the health of our skin. 💚🐢🐠🐬💙
I’m black surfer in the Bay Area and I was thinking of buying that sunscreen because it’s clear and won’t leave a cast . Thank you for explaining about the use of chemicals in the sunscreen as someone who is very passionate about the ocean 🌊. That’s good to know. Thanks so much 🙌🏾👏🏾
I’ve been using glossier for a couple years and my skin has cleared up my discoloration is gone and my dry patches are gone. I don’t have sensitive skin tho. But theses are the only product that have ever actually worked on me.
ok i usually totally agree w you... but all i use for my skin is glossier. i have extremely sensitive skin and my skin just lovesss glossier skin care.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE MAKE YOUR OWN SKINCARE LINE. YOU CAN DO A GREASY SKIN PAGE , DRY SKIN PAGE AND A REGULAR/ BOTH PAGE. I NEEEEEDDDDDDDDDD ONE. PLEASE ❤️❤️❤️
Milky jelly cleanser, bow brow, and cloud paint are amazing products that I've been repurchasing for years. Some of their other stuff isn't worth the money though.
What do u think about the Krave beauty sun shield/sunscreen? Is it mineral? If not, are the chemical filters safe and effective (and are they damaging to the reefs??????)
I just watched a video from Dr. Dray who is a youtuber and dermatologist, and she said that all the claims about the safety of chemical filters is just a bunch of fear-mongering. The media likes to extrapolate and manipulate data all the time. Chemical filters have been used for years with no substantial evidence that they cause harm. I don't think you should fall for all these false claims. But I do think you should shop for Asian and/or European sunscreens because as they provide more UVA protection from the stable chemical filters not available in the US.
L Atlason the concern that people have isn’t that the ingredients are bad for US, it’s that they’re bad for the environment. also, one thing the media DEFINITELY isn’t doing is making up lies to make it harder for corporations to make money lmao
kennedy crouch Again, we don’t have enough evidence to prove that these filters are playing a role in the health of the coral reefs. Even if it does, the amount of sunscreen that is in the ocean is very little compared to how large the ocean is. Studies only show that high concentrations of certain chemical filters can cause bleaching. People don’t even apply enough sunscreen as is. Plus, there are a multitude of factors that can lead to the decline of coral reefs, not just sunscreen.
So I love the Krave SPF! Many Korean/European SPF Chemical alternatives are great, it’s just the ones in the US that are a problem. If you want to know the science, LabMuffin does a great video debunking myths and showing truths. There IS evidence showing the rapidly deteriorating environments of tourist areas due to chemical sunscreens. As for other locations, I still recommend to avoid due to water runoff still affecting the ocean. It may not be much, but it’s a step I take to be more conscious ☺️
L Atlason Actually, if you’ve watched Dr Dray’s recent videos she talks about more about how this is actually a significant problem and is providing alternative options! I agree with your statements about Korean/European alternatives, but I have to say that as someone who firsthand sees the damage sunscreens inflict (being that I live in a tourist destination in Hawaii), it’s most important to me to know the science 😊
Hyram, can you do a review on all the threads about black African soap? I see them everywhere and I’m interested in knowing if it works and has all the benefits people state. Thank you!
There is no studies on it because black soap is formulated different depending on where you get it. There is no one black soap, which makes it hard to study and to review. But from a dermatologic standpoint, it is not harmful for the skin. I would say go ahead and test it out for yourself to see if you like it.
Damn, why does everyone dog Glossier customers so much? I'm just a regular black girl from atl and glossier is my favorite makeup. I have oily, acne prone skin, I just don't like the instagram makeup look. Why push for diversity, when we don't allow people to have diversity in taste. IDGI.
I could not agree more, I love glossier but the amount of people hating on girls who prefer simple skincare and minimal makeup is astounding like talk about girls hating on other girls :/
@@tasnimuddin7643 it has nothing to do with what makeup you prefer or girls supporting girls??? most people just think glossier is just overpriced pink packaging, you can get the same thing for better quality cheaper.
This is kinda true...I have to admit that the major reason why I still purchase Glossier products is 90% its aesthetics and 10% how it ACTUALLY works 😕
