Renee, I honestly love EVERY single video you upload!!! One can tell that you really try out these products, that you do your research and that you give us your honest opinion. I love how passionate you are about skincare and I feel I can trust you and your recommendations completely.
I'm glad to mentioned "retinizing" more than once. This is my fist six months on a low dose tretinoin and winter dry skin exacerbates my new sensitivity. I just keep layering moisture and look forward to Spring!
Bless you for making me discover Boxwalla and The Light Salon. A Queen. Finding your channel has been one of the best things to happen to me this year, so thank you Renée, I wish you a happy new year!!! ❤️✨
I only started using the allies of skin cleanser at the beginning of december but it became holy grail status after first use! It feels so nice to use and actually cleans the skin unlike some other hydrating cleansers I've tried. Happy new year!🥳🥳
I’ve been really loving their overnight retinol & peptide mask/ cream. So glad to have had a chance to try the brand via CH’s fall skincare box (which itself was a first for me!)
Thank You.... your commitment to running in your own lane is respected. Though I watch others, it’s your recommendations that I trust, purchase... and I’ve never been let down!!
I bought the 2020 box from wishtrend and my god, it is heaven sent! I live in Calgary so it’s dry and cold in the winter and the products made my skin finally feel deeply hydrated and so soft. Thank you 💖 happy new year
Klairs Gentle Black Cleanser really works for decongestion and against blackheads. I really recommend it if your skin is sensitive to BHA’s and foaming cleansers but still experience congestion. It’s a holly grail for my sensitive rosacea with oily T-zone. I don’t wear make up but I put sunscreen on every day.
Earliest I’ve ever been! Thank you for all your content, giveaways, interviews with specialists, and etc. this year! Belated happy birthday, Renee (fellow Sagittarius here), and a safe/ happy New Year to everyone reading this! :-)
Omg I have the I’m From Rice Serum displayed on a marble tray in my bathroom (the pretty products go there lol) and only use it as a “treat” once or twice a week because I don’t want it to end! 🤍
Yay finally!!!! I’ve missed your videos so much. Thanks a lot for being such a revelation for me this year, you’ve pretty much set me on the road to starting a decent skincare routine (I’m 34 so I’m not sure how my skin hasn’t fallen off over the years with no sunscreen usage whatsoever 🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️). All the best for the new year and keep the sharing of skin knowledge coming 💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾
When do u use led mask? What do you use put when using the mask? Can I use tret after the mask my night time routine please please reply love from Uk 🇬🇧
I have been using the NuFace consistently for 2 years 3 x a week and I definitely see a difference! I also now use this LED Salon mask instead fo the other bulky one. HAPPY NEW YEAR RENEE! xo
Happy 2021 Renée! Thanks for this video, definitely have the I'm From Rice products in my wishlist now. I also bought a Nuface in 2020 and have been amazed at the results, excited to watch your microcurrent video!
Happy New Year, Renee! Wishing you, and yours every good thing in the year to come. You are such a lovely light in the skin care world. Thank you for always caring enough to answer my questions, and offer advice. You are greatly appreciated!! Much love, Collette :)
Yes, skincare devices video please . I had bought nuface 3 weeks . But now after watching many other devices reviews , I am starting to confuse & concerned whether I made the wrong choice .
Your recommendation of the boost mask seriously helped me this year. I spontaneously developed roscea that was out of control and with the LED light my skin is no longer freaking out. THANK YOU
Oh Renée you've been so good to me (us) over the years.. 2020 has been a trying year!!I 've pretty much neglected my skincare. (Of course I still cleanse, retinol, moisturize, SPF).... but its been long time since ive been excited about skincare or seen it as a luxury. Thank you for this video! After getting thru this year, and devoting my every waking moment to keeping my family safe.. I feel I deserve to indulge! And that "Allies of Skin- Hydrating Cleanser" is calling my name!!
Excited to hear your comparison thoughts on nuface/ziip. I miss my ziip so much now that I'm pregnant and haven't used... not sure if I'm allowed to or not. But would love to hear your thoughts on these!
THANK YOU THANK YOU SOOOOOOOmuch for talking about the fragrance or scent of products and putting it on the screen. No one does this and it so helpful.
Happy New Year! Thanks for all the great content you put out in 2020. I especially appreciated your Black owned skincare products video. Can't wait to see what you share this year! 🖤🖤
Yaaaay! Thank you so much for posting this, Renee 🤩 Wish you a happy and healthy new year! 💖 Here’s to great skin health to everyone out there 🎉🎊 Just finished watching 😊 Bought the Barrier Sanctuary Balm after watching your IG video. It’s been the most fav discovery this year, thanks to you! It’s a luxury blanket on my face at the end of my nighttime skincare routine 👌
I just stumbled on you today and I've only watched 2 videos so far but I'm already obsessed with you! You're so eloquent! I really enjoy listening to you talk and love how information-packed your videos are. I can't wait to watch every single video! XO
I have been using NuFace for almost 2 years consistently. I love it! I have seen a difference when I was not using it for two weeks due to traveling overseas. Thanks for your recommendations. Happy New Year!
How am I just now seeing your content? I feel like you are the only one talking about Paula’s Choice! It has totally changed my rosacea. Love your videos!
Hi Renee, could you possibly do safe skincare and eye care for pregnancy? There are so many ingredients we can't use, so I'm using the most basic creams 😩 my skin has also changed from oily to dry. Thanks!
Paused and went straight away to Dr. Sam’s site to purchase her azelaic acid serum. Didn’t even dissect ingredients list. You are my fully trusted skincare WORD!
The Lovinah oil is a dream. That smell...so amazing ❤ I have the I'm from Rice, Beneath Your Mask and Klur products. Got them after your reviews! Happy New Year!!
So many interesting products and formulations, this is a super video. I have been so hit or miss this year and I always sort of wander around in skin care videos anyway. My point is that your skin is *definitely* plumper this year than it was last year. I noticed it long before you got to the gadgets and mentioned it. Whether it's from the gadgets or the retinol or both - who knows? You look great, thank the Gods that 2020 is over and we'll see you in 2021.
YES that Dragon’s Blood Oil Cleanser is HEAVENLY. Also a Boxwalla find for me & while I haven’t repurchased yet I do fully intend to down the road (aka once I’ve worked through at least most of my oil cleansers!) As a side note, I’m also a massive Boxwalla fan; have been w/ them about a year & a half now & while of course I have my favorites there’s only been a single item I haven’t liked/ been able to readily use. I also really appreciate the every other month schedule - it feels just right - & even enjoy the great repurpose-able boxes things arrive in! Highly recommend the service to anyone who might be considering it.
Oh Renée you've been so good to me (us) over the years.. 2020 has been a trying year!!I 've pretty much neglected my skincare. (Of course I still cleanse, retinol, moisturize, SPF).... but its been long time since ive been excited about skincare or seen it as a luxury. Thank you for this video! After getting thru this year, and devoting my every waking moment to keeping my family safe.. I feel I deserve to indulge! And that "Allies of Skin- Hydrating Cleanser" along with their "Prebiotics and Niacinimide and Pore Refining Serum" is calling my name!!
Renee, this video is so great!! The best way to wrap up 2020!! Have you tried the brands living libations/the innate life? Would love to hear what you have to say about it! Oh and Happy new year! ❤️
Thank you for the skincare favs! I love your videos and your recommendations. This was a great roundup of all kinds of products for different needs and price points.
I love your content so much, You are the skin care influencer I watch the most as well as a few dermatologists here on UA-cam. Thank you so much for the details you give! I can see your passion for skincare, it is so enticing! I would appreciate time stamps on your videos as I often watch your videos like this several times to determine which product is best suited for me. Appreciate you! ❤️
I just got the Glass Skin Veil Mist the other day and am already loving it! I bought it on a whim because the most I was going to buy (a repurchase) was out of stock, so I was unsure of how I would like it. It’s great.
Been excited for your 2020. faves! Do you have advice for skin on roaccutane? like skincare safe to use during and after? Can't find anything on your channel about it! Happy New Year x
Always appreciate your recommendations! Already using some of these items, that were included in your holiday box from Wishtrend. Yesterday I bought the Aveeno cleanser, I love products with oats. Reminds me of a skincare line that I used way back growing up in Germany. Wishing you a Healthy 2021!
Hi Renee! I was curious about layering the sunscreens because I’ve read on many different sites that spfs (especially if one is mineral and the other chemical) should not be mixed or layered because they could interfere and negate the protection. Would love to hear your thoughts on this!
Looking forward to your video on devices. Also, I've been hesitant to use the Nuface near the throat so don't use it much on my chin either. Where do you avoid?
Hi Renee. This is awesome. I’ve been using NUFACE for the past 3-4 years 6-7 days a week and the result, OMG is fantastic. And recently I purchased the Trinity wrinkle reducer, LED red light attachment, so it’s a lit time time consuming. Now that I see the LED mask you’re using, I’m thinking to get mask instead. What do you think? Thank you and Happy New Year❤️🎉
I splurged in a NuFace about a month ago and think it is really great. It makes me feel validated that you like it too : ) I use Hado Labo HA conductivity and quite like it.
I just keep making a list of your recommendations so the next time I am needing to purchase something I refer to it.. loved all the suggestions in this video
About the Nuface. Do you wipe off the gel it comes with after use, or do u rub it in and leave it on after? I find it's sticky and doesn't feel good on the face. What do u use? The gel it comes with or u buy something else.
Hi Renee, Happy New Year! Again, thank you for everything you do to make skincare so much more fun and the nerdy science stuff more accessible. So I have a stumper for you. I have some very long surgical scars (greater than 18 inches). If I were living in Korea, what would they have me use to reduce the appearance as much as possible? I read that Guerisson 9 Complex is suggested, but that was the only thing I could find. Thoughts?
Thank you for such great info!! I am intrigued to purchase the peach and lily mist… could I use that during the day? And at night? Would it compromise my spf ethicacy? 😍
Renee, I honestly love EVERY single video you upload!!! One can tell that you really try out these products, that you do your research and that you give us your honest opinion. I love how passionate you are about skincare and I feel I can trust you and your recommendations completely.
I'm glad to mentioned "retinizing" more than once. This is my fist six months on a low dose tretinoin and winter dry skin exacerbates my new sensitivity. I just keep layering moisture and look forward to Spring!
this woman can sell me anything and idk if it’s a good thing or not
The new aveeno serum, from the same line as the cleanser (I use Vanicream) also helps with the retinizing.
Bless you for making me discover Boxwalla and The Light Salon. A Queen. Finding your channel has been one of the best things to happen to me this year, so thank you Renée, I wish you a happy new year!!! ❤️✨

Off topic: that looks like the PERFECT winter sweater
I'm thinking the same thing. Does anyone know where it is from? :)

Boss lady of skin care.
Lol love that
Word
*Been so excited for this video all year, this truly was my year to learn about skincare being at home all year. You've been the go-to!*
Your videos are so therapeutic, yet I always learn so much about products I have never tried! Love and hope for 2021❤️
The Farmacy Honey Halo Moisturizer became my holy grail night time cream. It’s so luxurious and moisturizing. So worth the hype and price.
Yes!!!!!!! The best video on UA-cam every year!!! Thanks for the awesome videos this year!🥰
Love how Renee mentions low and high price point for each category. Looking out for our wallets here!
I feel like I’m still making my way through your 2019 favorites 😂
This video was a great present for the end of 2020! Thanks for everything Renee.
Earliest I’ve ever been!
Thank you for all your content, giveaways, interviews with specialists, and etc. this year!

Bakuchiol is pronounced as: bak-oo-chi(as in Chinese)-ol since the name is derived from the bakuchi plant in India.
Yes your skin is radiant and glowing. It looks so plump and hydrated..
I’m addicted to your videos omg, your skin is FLAWLESS 😍
*Renee uploads a video*
My wallet: My time has come.
hahaha!
I couldn't have said it better myself :)
right?? If Renee worked in retail I would simply buy whatever she told me to
Excited to hear your comparison thoughts on nuface/ziip. I miss my ziip so much now that I'm pregnant and haven't used... not sure if I'm allowed to or not. But would love to hear your thoughts on these!

Happy New Year! Thanks for all the great content you put out in 2020. I especially appreciated your Black owned skincare products video. Can't wait to see what you share this year! 🖤🖤
Cleansing oils are my favorite part of a skincare routine. That dragons blood cleansing oil looks incredible😍. (Add to cart)😂
Same! I love the neutrogena body oil for double cleansing 😍
I think D, all the above, as I have personally dived much deeper into a better skincare routine this year. Thank you 🙏 Happy New Year 🥳
Yaaaay! Thank you so much for posting this, Renee 🤩 Wish you a happy and healthy new year! 💖 Here’s to great skin health to everyone out there 🎉🎊

I usually stay away from Aveeno cuz they’re always over scented but that oat cleanser I’ll try..
Their calm+restore line is really good!
I have been using NuFace for almost 2 years consistently. I love it! I have seen a difference when I was not using it for two weeks due to traveling overseas. Thanks for your recommendations. Happy New Year!
Just love you and your recommendations! Happy New Year🍾🥂

I just received my Klairs cleansing oil, bamboo toner; rice serum and moisturizer. Hopeful for a skin revival in 2021 😊
I look forward to your yearly favorite! Can I use c E ferulic under brightly?
Happy New Year Renee!
I’d love a video all about exfoliation (the different ingredients to look for, the types of products, recommendations etc.)
Turn CC on at 4:53 😅
Ok thank you but what have you been using on your hair. It’s looking luxurious.
The Lovinah oil is a dream. That smell...so amazing ❤ I have the I'm from Rice, Beneath Your Mask and Klur products. Got them after your reviews! Happy New Year!!
Thank you so much for the Youth to The People Eye Cream rec. I am loving it so much and really helps my dry under eyes.
Yesss, I’m in love with the Allies of skin cleanser 😍 and their Mandelic serum is beautiful, it’s expensive but you should try it out

2020 did suck but trying new products really opened up my eyes to the world of skincare so it wasn’t all bad. I can’t wait to try some of these 🙈
annnd Renee does it again!!!! Another exceptional skincare video!! brb buying everything!!
Happy new year 🎉 some of these will just fly into my cart. Wish I meet the right one for me in 2021- talking about sunscreen!

Layering is fine, just let the first layer dry completely first!
Looking forward to your video on devices. Also, I've been hesitant to use the Nuface near the throat so don't use it much on my chin either. Where do you avoid?
Love your reviews/videos !! Happy New Year!!!!
Been waiting for this 😍❤️🌟
Thanks Rene!
I'm due for some new products. Thanks for the recommendations. I hope you have a new year full of good (skin) health, peace and joy x

Can you wear a tinted mineral sunscreen over that vit c sunscreen serum?
Yes!
thanks for always finding a way to teach us something new in your videos!
I splurged in a NuFace about a month ago and think it is really great. It makes me feel validated that you like it too : ) I use Hado Labo HA conductivity and quite like it.
Have you tried the inky list oat cleanser?
Want to try these throughout 2021. I hope I can get them in Europe . Thank you Renee. You make these products so appealing!!
I just keep making a list of your recommendations so the next time I am needing to purchase something I refer to it.. loved all the suggestions in this video
Thanks for the recs, Renee! *Adds everything to cart*
I love the way you express yourself, really enjoyed this video !
