ive been going through a really bad breakup that has left me so anxious and depressed and stressed, and you saying "you havent even lived some of the best days of your life yet" really helped me feel better ♡ thank you so so much cass
What I’ve also learned recently is that you don’t need to spend all your money to achieve healthy skin. It takes a lot more patience than I realized though 😵💫 thank you for spreading your empowering message 🌸
I fear the pain of a peel. It scares the crap out of me. I have used home products, glycolic acid, and have felt a lot of pain. Where I couldn't wash my face for a day or two. I'm just aging, I do not have acne. Never have. Very blessed and I know it!!!!
When you have no energy and no money for the goodies Cass offers but keep watching the videos coz they're soothing (yes, even when she gets wild, as you do) and informative. Cass, if you're reading this I just want to let you know that at the beginning of this year I was diagnosed with Cervical disc degenerative disorder (aside from the Lumbar one) and carpal tunnel syndrome. I was in pain for days, was on medical rest from work and the only thing that kept my mind calm was watching your videos, even fell asleep on my desk chair. Then the depression, anxiety and panicc attacks came back, and still, I could watch your videos and be calm. Thank you so much for all the effort you do, even if make up wipes and micellar water was the only thing you could do. I relate. Still, thank you so much. 💖💖
I’m so happy to hear and see you speaking positively and in an empowering way again 🥰 what really resonated with me was when you said you can’t hate yourself into having clear skin. This is exactly the message I needed to hear today thank you 🥰
I want to add one more tip about the pillowcase vs. acne thing from my personal experience. I normally wash my hair 2 times a week and use dry shampoo between washes because i have oily scalp. And i've noticed that the days when i use the dry shampoo i wake up the next morning with little pimples on my face, and i feel like my skin is dirty or textured, so i would have to cleanse my face and redo my scincare routine, even though i usually depend on my nighttime routine and only apply sunscreen in the morning. To prevent this, i bought a satin hair bonnet and started to wear it on the nights where i use the dry shampoo. It worked, and it also prevented my hair from becoming frizzy. I have one more tip that is also from my personal experience. Sometimes, when i cry and sleep without redoing my skincare routine, i wake up with many little pimples all over my face, especially on my cheeks and the sides of my nose (obviously in places where my tears go). And when i am mentally breaking down, i wouldn't have the energy to redo my skincare, but at least i sometimes try to wash my face with water only, and it helps better than nothing.
As another Aesthetician, I've loved and appreciated Cassandra's videos and honest knowledge and information. I can relate to SO many of the things we had been Told or taught in Aestgetics school over a decade ago. Especially about the "natural" skincare. OMG Origins was SO big back then. 🤣 Thank you so much for calling out "natural not necessarily being better" You are such a necessity in this industry and on YT! Love ya girl!💛💛💛
I struggled with acne for 2 years. I went to an esthetician last year and it has completely helped me. I still break out but it heals so much faster! Even cystic acne. I was using too many products and it completely wrecked my skin! Better to leave it to the pros if you struggle with any skin problem
Estheticians r the BEST! Huh? That's who changed my whole life as I have researched skincare but not on myself! And I give a disclaimer to see a professional first! I merely share credibly sourced research bc it's something I do 24/7! Switched 2 skincare after acne of 4+ yrs in mid 20's! Only could see eyes 👀 literally! I'm downplaying it! Sometimes it takes someone who knows the right info!! Also, remember good info can come from anywhere and anyone but trust your gut! Don't judge them on their appearance Please 🙏 We r not all going to get Estheticians who look like Cassandra Bankson but I wish! Now if u have solid advice from someone who doesn't look like a model... that's OK. If u attribute skin knowledge to people who happen to have perfect skin, b happy for them... but THAT doesn't mean they're going 2 know about skincare. When someone explains the why and how and doesn't waste years or $$... Advocate 4 Ur health!
This was an uplifting talk I SO needed. Several months ago I was maimed and disfigured by my orthodontist who didn't review my medical history....I have Ehlers-Danlos so my skin is fragile. If stretched too aggressively it will tear and scar. I was left with speech and functional deficits, and scarring around my lips and nose; essentially stretch marks in the middle of my face. While this is traumatizing and devastating this experience taught me what other people think about my appearance is none of my business. What matters is how I feel in my skin. ❤
Michelle, I apologize u had 2 endure such painful jaw orthodontic surgery from being maimed omg 😢. I do so appreciate and admire U for saying such a positive message of strength though (not diminishing ur pain)! You are so 💯 correct and what a profoundly inspiring message 4 ALL that U said: "The ONLY opinion that should matter is Yours! Not anyone else's" or comparing oneself to influencers that r fake and don't tell you how it is either! Even still, what u said is so profound! Thank U! (Also, THAT shows how U turned an abysmal situation and made it into something that made U stronger 💪💯 learning from it when it should not have happened but it did and rather than allowing someone or something 2 have power over U... U took a terrible trauma and learned from it WOWEE 💪) I admire U and appreciate U, Michelle!
@@DOLLCRAZES Your kind, thoughtful and uplifting reply made my heart smile, thank you! I had braces (not jaw surgery) and while it's traumatizing to know my ex-orthodontist's negligence left me with the inability to close my mouth, kiss, eat from a spoon, articulate and smile the only thing I can control is the way I think. And, I'm not going to allow him or anyone to take that from me. :) ❤️
Cassandra Bankson, Hi my Beautiful Cyster. I had severe inflamed cystic acne 4+ yrs & similar hair issues as well but I admit there was a time when I did compare myself to U and now I look at people's inner perplexities/uniqueness! I think U are so profoundly strong, gorgeous, inspiring to ALL, & omg such a natural beauty in every way bc your ❤️ gives so much light to others! 💯❤️❤️❤️
You look like Taylor swift with dark hair! The curls I know you don’t like but have learned to like & manage and they’re beautiful so are you, Thank you for keeping making videos about skin for us.
Im so so thankful for finding your channel. I really needed to hear your advice and I'm so glad that you are empowering yourself and many other people. As a teen I use to suffer from severe hormonal face and body acne especially when I first hit puberty, and I realized that it wasn't the outside that was causing my acne, but the neglect I had towards taking care of my mental health. I suffered from many panic attacks and really bad anxiety, but through a lot of help I was able to see many improvements and the see the positivity around me. I learnt so much from your videos, and my skincare has begun with over-the-counter benzoyl peroxide wash to a salicylic acid wash and really nice moisturizers thanks to your help. Over time I've seen so many improvements, and my hormonal acne has definitely decreased over time compared to 1-2 years ago. You inspire me so much Cassandra. I've found your videos to be very helpful, not just by the recommendations of products but understanding the chemistry and science behind all of them (it's even helped me in my high school biology classes). Could you please make a video on facial hair or body hair removal, as well as 'strawberry skin'? I've never shaved or sugared or waxed my hair before and I want to understand the effects it has on skin, and how to treat my skin after.
Cassandra, I hope you are better, because the situation you are experiencing hit me very hard and I wrote you a comment that I think you didn't read, but that's okay, I just hope you feel better. A big hug 🥰
Love peach & lily and loove Peach Slices microdart patches! If any of you read this, try them! They don't come with the wipes that the zitstickas do, and they're slightly thicker but stick really well(to dry no product applied skin) and I swear to them as a dupe!
I actually recently switched sunscreens because the one I was using caused these weird dry acne patches. That’s how I learned my skin prefers mineral over chemical sunscreens.
I LOVE YOUR SUNBLOCK!!! Thank you Cassandra for that and all your words of encouragement and wisdom…most of all your courage is so appreciated and inspiring!!!xoxoxo
I know peels can do amazing things, but I worry about being missnumbered on the Fitzpatrick scale (I know some are all fitz safe) and I also worry about accidental burns. I would love for you to go over all the peels risks and rewards!. ❤
Thank you so much, Cassandra. For sharing your light with us when as you have shared, you are going through difficult times of your own. I hope you have someone near to you who is lifting you up the same way you lift us up with such intention. You’re worth it too, Babe. 💞
Love this Cassandra! I have Milia-like closed pimples I have struggled to get rid of since my second child. Learning to take a step back from the mirror and smile. This was such a great video to watch 💕
This was a good one!! Learned so much. You are so beautiful and it's wonderful that you're so passionate about helping others look and feel their best!
What an inspiration you are Cassandra! You definitely have a God Given gift to shine on this crazy world we live in. YOU make this world a better place!❤
Cassandra, thank you for doing this, for showing up for us and for always supporting us even when you are going through the toughest of times yourself. It’s so meaningful. Thank you, we love you, take care of yourself. ❤❤❤
Thank you for making this educational channel, Cassandra. This year I started using the inkey list salicylic acid cleanser and it was a game changer. Then I got the succinic acid treatment cream and I was amazed on how gentle yet effective it was. A month ago my go to moisturizer emptied and I couldn't afford a new one but I had the niacinamide bottle that I got in a bundle of the inkey list. I am amazed, amazed!!! by the change in my skin. I've been more stressed than ever yet my skin has had minor extremely small pimples that cleared in one or two days. However, I've gotten some big and painful ones around my neck where I seldom wash with salicylic acid and never used the niacinamide on. Soooo, now I will use the cleanser and niacinamide on my neck too. Thank you big cyster because if I hadn't learned through you about ingredients, I would be expending money that I don't have in products that in the best case escenario would never do anything for my skin. Of course, I use spf everyday.
I'm 48. I wasn't sure if I liked your channel at first. But i've just really grown to love you. That is a compliment. 😊 I have found being postmenopausal that Dihydromyricetin has helped my skin a lot. I had deep marionette lines and deep nasal folds. I woke up this morning and can't get over the hydration my skin has. I am curious if you've ever heard of this. Also, have you ever watched Dr. rajani? I spent a lot of money doing a laser resurfacing in 2020 , it really seemed to help my sun damage (florida babe). Thank you so much for your amazing and thoughtful content. I really look forward to these videos.
Sighhhhhh 23:23 :/ I am being treated for cptsd, anxiety, depression. Im a skin picker, and have Trichotillamania. I feel pretty crappy about myself and try to summon some of your power and confidence.
YES! please do an in-depth video about chemical peels. I don't really know anything about them (other than samantha's chemical peel in sex and the city) so I'd love to hear the specifications
Also making a table that lists ingredients by what they do would be helpful. What ingredients are exfoliating? Which are cleansing? Which are moisturizing? I know you tell us in various videos but it is overwhelming to people new to this. It would be nice to have it all in one spot.
Ms. Cassandra will you please make an in-depth video regarding peels and chemical exfoliants? I tried using salicylic acid before but it gave me big red bumps and made my skin very dry despite using a gentle cleanser and moisturizer. I have acne and acne scars (mostly closed comedones and blackheads). So can you please tell us how to find the right and suitable acid to use on skin?
Can you please do a video about acne scars and how you improved yours?? I feel like my acne and my scars are or were similar to yours but yours look so much better now!!!🥹🥰
Agreed, people hardly notice others. By comparison I know the eye color from everyone I ever met in school, friends, family, relatives, acquaintances and so on but my own dad still has no idea about mine 🤷🏻♀️
Heyy, i love your videos!! Could you perhaps make a video focussing on how to fix armpit dermatitis. (i’ve had it for around 10 years now) Possibly including how to treat rashes in pubic areas
My skin is doing pretty good but I feel like it just needs that something extra to kind of get it out of this dull, flat slightly clogged situation. I’ve been thinking about getting a chemical peel but I am a bit nervous because my skin is a little bit more on the sensitive side. I would definitely like to see a video talking about the different types of peels and which are best for which type of skin. I feel like I’m pretty well informed but you can never have too much knowledge so I think that would be a great video! 🥰
YOU are a LEGEND! Thank you so much Cassandra. You do so much more than you need to and it shows you really care to help people when you spend so much time being so thorough. You’ve helped me so much!!! Thank you ❤
Don't notice better appearance or anything like THAT but smiles that push the cheeks up and make the eyes smile are priceless! On anyone! I wish the BEST 4 someone like Cassandra Bankson bc of how strong, unique, positive, helpful, inspiring, kind-hearted, and don't like comparing outer shells bc to me, she's ALWAYS beautiful! If she wasn't genuine.. I don't know if I would say that. I feel Cassandra Bankson's honesty as her body language and words read through the camera!
I have been struggling with acne for over 10 years now, since I was 12/13. While it is not as bad as it used to be .. it still makes me self conscious. It’s so difficult to get treatment in Ireland .. dermatologists aren’t even taking patients on their waiting lists anymore and they certainly aren’t dealing with people like me, whose condition is “mild”
can you also do a video aboutbest body lotions/moisturerizers that have some active ingredients? I have the paulas choice one but i 'm wondering about one with something in the retinol family
Thank you for this video. I’m trying to prevent fine lines and wrinkles. Correction, I have phone lines and wrinkles. I want to correct them. My dermatologist recommended micro needling, but I think a peel makes much more sense especially since my skin is very thin. When do you know to use micro needling or a peel?
I was so glad everyone was wearing mask, so my acne face could not be seen! Then it appears that the mask caused acne as well😢 I felt relieved when going out because I could wear the mask to hide it and contact with people was super limited. I was so relieved. Now hardly anyone is wearing a mask except me because of the scare still and because of acne it sucks 😔
Wow… someone else??? I irritated my skin to the point that it caused skin burn hyperpigmentation 🙄, tho it’s clearing slowly, I too wear a mask to cover it most times 😔, or makeup which eventually fades.
Hello, I have a question since I'm new to skincare and would love some tips. Can I use the aha bha pha 30 days miracle cream in the morning and the ordinary retinol in the evening every day? Is it a good idea or am I simply damaging my skin barrier? Thanks❤️
I’ve spent 💰💰💰getting laser at the dermatologist’s office and have been very very happy, yet I’ve had others tell me that chemical peels are the way to go. How can peels be better than laser? ?
Guys, I need help 😢 I am struggling with severe pore clogging and texture even though I already eliminated ALL products that contain comedogenic ingredients (both skincare and makeup) I double cleanse daily, regularly use BHA and AHAs and still the progress is minimal. Any suggestions what might be causing it?
First up, see a doctor or dermatologist if you can, get an expert to look at the problem. However, I know where I live (New Zealand) seeing a derm is almost impossible... I'd suggest changing up your exfoliation routine, try something higher strength less often, OR lower strength every day. Sunscreen everyday no matter what. Then retinol. The granactive retinol from the ordinary is cheap and perfect for everyday use. And, remember it won't last forever - "this too shall pass" - so be kind to yourself and reduce that stress 😊
Would you say that these same products to help with acne are also good for rosacea? I suffer from both and am still trying to learn what products are good for me.
Since I started Esthetics school. We've done facials on each others. We put two exfoliates on. One is a mask and then a liquid on (that's like a toner). I know my Esthetician did warn me about my face freaking out. I actually bought some calming face wash, toner, and moisturizer. I'm trying to heal my skin from the damage that's being done to it.
Today is day two of learning about skin care ingredients. I used to just buy something expensive and popular, then wonder why my skin never clears up. I am trying to build a routine and find products that my skin actually needs. I have to say I almost threw my phone when you said “but don’t over exfoliate”. I’m having a hard time getting clear cut answers. I’m getting slivers of information that I need from some videos. You may have a video that will help me with this. If you do, which ones are they? (You have a lot of videos and sometimes the title might not match the information I need.) if you don’t have this information, maybe it’s an idea for a future video.
Hi! I'm a fellow pillowcase washer and have a question. So, the acne bacteria not being able to live on your pillowcase makes total sense. BUT, can't other bacteria live on the pillowcase? For example, our hands touch so many things including the pillowcase, can't that bacteria get on my skin and cause acne just like it would if I touched my face a lot?
I haven’t been doing well and I was about to off myself. I decided to watch one of your videos because they always seem to make me happy, I tried to find a distraction and skincare is my special interest. The ending message helped me decide not to. Thank you for being the big sister I always wished I had and for being vulnerable to a not always kind world. Thank you for helping me so much over the years ❤️
Help I am desperate 😢 B12 supplement, no matter how little I take, break me out but I need to take it. I have tried to look for tips online but I do not know what to do. When I stop taking them I rarely break out, thanks to my skincare routine. Any advice? 😭
My oldest child actually had the opposite thing happen. She had horrible acne. Deep, painful, cystic acne. She was a vegetarian for quite a few years. She did 2 rounds of Accutane. She had every fantastic skincare product to get rid of acne. She was seeing a dermatologist frequently. She stopped being a vegetarian and her acne cleared up significantly. It's quite possible that age was the real reason or hormones rather, but it did happen when she went back to meat eating. So strange right
So every night i was with cetaphil, use a LRP moisturizer, then put on my prescribed azealic acid then 15 min later i use my prescribed retin-a. my skin is VERY dry. i have no idea what to do. do i stop the azealic acid?
Heyy Cassandra i have done everything i mean everything under the sun from regular use of salicylic acid, benzoyl peroxide, adapalene, clindamycin phosphate regularly. But my skin has never cleared😢 I am 19 right now even my dermat is confused
You cant hate yourself into clear skin. I needed to hear that. Thankyou cassandra
ive been going through a really bad breakup that has left me so anxious and depressed and stressed, and you saying "you havent even lived some of the best days of your life yet" really helped me feel better ♡ thank you so so much cass

Not having money is one thing, but in my country we don't even have these professional skin treatments, like lasers etc. This is the real misery

That is a compliment. 😊 I have found being postmenopausal that Dihydromyricetin has helped my skin a lot. I had deep marionette lines and deep nasal folds. I woke up this morning and can't get over the hydration my skin has. I am curious if you've ever heard of this. Also, have you ever watched Dr. rajani?
I spent a lot of money doing a laser resurfacing in 2020 , it really seemed to help my sun damage (florida babe). Thank you so much for your amazing and thoughtful content. I really look forward to these videos.
What brand do you use? Thx
Sighhhhhh

:/ I am being treated for cptsd, anxiety, depression. Im a skin picker, and have Trichotillamania. I feel pretty crappy about myself and try to summon some of your power and confidence.
Love your videos!!! Always good quality uplifting information!!!
Your product recommendations are the best! I keep my skin clear with acids!
YES! please do an in-depth video about chemical peels. I don't really know anything about them (other than samantha's chemical peel in sex and the city) so I'd love to hear the specifications
Thank you for this video, Cassandra ❤
omggg I'd love to see the video about chemical peelsss! you're amazing as always cass ❤️ love from Italy
🥹💖 you deserve your platform. I love supporting you!
This is the most important video on the internet ❤ thank you so much!
Ooohhhh PLEASE do a comparison of different peels!!
Also making a table that lists ingredients by what they do would be helpful. What ingredients are exfoliating? Which are cleansing? Which are moisturizing? I know you tell us in various videos but it is overwhelming to people new to this. It would be nice to have it all in one spot.
The BEST video ever! We should all learn this when we were teenagers!
Ms. Cassandra will you please make an in-depth video regarding peels and chemical exfoliants? I tried using salicylic acid before but it gave me big red bumps and made my skin very dry despite using a gentle cleanser and moisturizer. I have acne and acne scars (mostly closed comedones and blackheads). So can you please tell us how to find the right and suitable acid to use on skin?
Thanks for Sharing cassandra❤❤
amazing educational video and thank you for being vulnerable with this and sharing for others to see!
Can you please do a video about acne scars and how you improved yours?? I feel like my acne and my scars are or were similar to yours but yours look so much better now!!!🥹🥰
This was so helpful. Thankyou
Appreciate you Cassandra!!❤❤❤❤❤Thank you for this video super informative!
Agreed, people hardly notice others. By comparison I know the eye color from everyone I ever met in school, friends, family, relatives, acquaintances and so on but my own dad still has no idea about mine 🤷🏻♀️
Heyy, i love your videos!! Could you perhaps make a video focussing on how to fix armpit dermatitis. (i’ve had it for around 10 years now) Possibly including how to treat rashes in pubic areas
I have armpit dermatitis too but it's mostly just bad in the summer when I sweat a lot.
I totally agree with you. I’m going through something at the moment and all of a sudden I got Rosacea.
please do a video on chemical peels?
Cassandra. I love you
Thank you for all your knowledge and the way how you teach us. You have help me so much, much more than any dermatologist. ❤
I’d love you to review Lumielle glass skin exfoliant, and how we could fit it into a routine with retinol. Love your videos!
I would love to hear her opinion on ampules like Babor, Isdin and LaCabine
Please make a video 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
My skin is doing pretty good but I feel like it just needs that something extra to kind of get it out of this dull, flat slightly clogged situation. I’ve been thinking about getting a chemical peel but I am a bit nervous because my skin is a little bit more on the sensitive side. I would definitely like to see a video talking about the different types of peels and which are best for which type of skin. I feel like I’m pretty well informed but you can never have too much knowledge so I think that would be a great video! 🥰
So glad that Minimalist is Cassandra approved! Love from India ❤
I'd love to hear about chemical peels done in office and ones that can be done at home.
Cassandra can you please please make a video for a European products i can't afford to order from USA thanks for education that y give us
You can use the education she provides and find similar products with the same main ingredients.
YOU are a LEGEND! Thank you so much Cassandra. You do so much more than you need to and it shows you really care to help people when you spend so much time being so thorough. You’ve helped me so much!!! Thank you ❤
Hi Cassandra, and chat ✌🏽Happy Thanksgiving! 🦃
I hope you’re feeling a little better ♡
Her 😭🦋🦋🦋🔥🥹🤌💞💞
Recommendations aside, I'm just glad Cass is looking much better in this video. Who else agrees with me?
I love a smile on Anyone!
Don't notice better appearance or anything like THAT but smiles that push the cheeks up and make the eyes smile are priceless! On anyone! I wish the BEST 4 someone like Cassandra Bankson bc of how strong, unique, positive, helpful, inspiring, kind-hearted, and don't like comparing outer shells bc to me, she's ALWAYS beautiful! If she wasn't genuine.. I don't know if I would say that. I feel Cassandra Bankson's honesty as her body language and words read through the camera!
Thank you 🥰
I have been struggling with acne for over 10 years now, since I was 12/13. While it is not as bad as it used to be .. it still makes me self conscious. It’s so difficult to get treatment in Ireland .. dermatologists aren’t even taking patients on their waiting lists anymore and they certainly aren’t dealing with people like me, whose condition is “mild”
Can you do a video about best european skincare products or best skincare products that can be bought in Europe? Thankss❤
can you also do a video aboutbest body lotions/moisturerizers that have some active ingredients? I have the paulas choice one but i 'm wondering about one with something in the retinol family
Would love to know how often you recommend doing chemical peels?
Thank you for this video. I’m trying to prevent fine lines and wrinkles. Correction, I have phone lines and wrinkles. I want to correct them. My dermatologist recommended micro needling, but I think a peel makes much more sense especially since my skin is very thin. When do you know to use micro needling or a peel?
I was so glad everyone was wearing mask, so my acne face could not be seen! Then it appears that the mask caused acne as well😢 I felt relieved when going out because I could wear the mask to hide it and contact with people was super limited. I was so relieved. Now hardly anyone is wearing a mask except me because of the scare still and because of acne it sucks 😔
Wow… someone else??? I irritated my skin to the point that it caused skin burn hyperpigmentation 🙄, tho it’s clearing slowly, I too wear a mask to cover it most times 😔, or makeup which eventually fades.
hey, love ur videos!! however can u tell me this if these r good for what skin type??? and want to know what is ur skn type?
Can you make vedio on Indian drugstore skin care products 😅
Hello, I have a question since I'm new to skincare and would love some tips. Can I use the aha bha pha 30 days miracle cream in the morning and the ordinary retinol in the evening every day? Is it a good idea or am I simply damaging my skin barrier? Thanks❤️
I’ve spent 💰💰💰getting laser at the dermatologist’s office and have been very very happy, yet I’ve had others tell me that chemical peels are the way to go. How can peels be better than laser? ?
I often catch myself staring at other people's pimples! I guess it's because I hate my own acne so much. 😢
Guys, I need help 😢 I am struggling with severe pore clogging and texture even though I already eliminated ALL products that contain comedogenic ingredients (both skincare and makeup) I double cleanse daily, regularly use BHA and AHAs and still the progress is minimal. Any suggestions what might be causing it?
First up, see a doctor or dermatologist if you can, get an expert to look at the problem.
However, I know where I live (New Zealand) seeing a derm is almost impossible...
I'd suggest changing up your exfoliation routine, try something higher strength less often, OR lower strength every day. Sunscreen everyday no matter what.
Then retinol. The granactive retinol from the ordinary is cheap and perfect for everyday use.
And, remember it won't last forever - "this too shall pass" - so be kind to yourself and reduce that stress 😊
@@cheekyb71 Thank you so so much ❤
Blessssss
Would you say that these same products to help with acne are also good for rosacea? I suffer from both and am still trying to learn what products are good for me.
Since I started Esthetics school. We've done facials on each others. We put two exfoliates on. One is a mask and then a liquid on (that's like a toner). I know my Esthetician did warn me about my face freaking out. I actually bought some calming face wash, toner, and moisturizer. I'm trying to heal my skin from the damage that's being done to it.
Today is day two of learning about skin care ingredients. I used to just buy something expensive and popular, then wonder why my skin never clears up.
I am trying to build a routine and find products that my skin actually needs. I have to say I almost threw my phone when you said “but don’t over exfoliate”. I’m having a hard time getting clear cut answers. I’m getting slivers of information that I need from some videos. You may have a video that will help me with this. If you do, which ones are they? (You have a lot of videos and sometimes the title might not match the information I need.) if you don’t have this information, maybe it’s an idea for a future video.
WHAT ABOUT THE NEW NIRA LASER ? Plzzzz review
Hi! I'm a fellow pillowcase washer and have a question. So, the acne bacteria not being able to live on your pillowcase makes total sense. BUT, can't other bacteria live on the pillowcase? For example, our hands touch so many things including the pillowcase, can't that bacteria get on my skin and cause acne just like it would if I touched my face a lot?
I haven’t been doing well and I was about to off myself. I decided to watch one of your videos because they always seem to make me happy, I tried to find a distraction and skincare is my special interest. The ending message helped me decide not to. Thank you for being the big sister I always wished I had and for being vulnerable to a not always kind world. Thank you for helping me so much over the years ❤️
Help I am desperate 😢 B12 supplement, no matter how little I take, break me out but I need to take it. I have tried to look for tips online but I do not know what to do. When I stop taking them I rarely break out, thanks to my skincare routine. Any advice? 😭
My oldest child actually had the opposite thing happen. She had horrible acne. Deep, painful, cystic acne. She was a vegetarian for quite a few years. She did 2 rounds of Accutane. She had every fantastic skincare product to get rid of acne. She was seeing a dermatologist frequently. She stopped being a vegetarian and her acne cleared up significantly. It's quite possible that age was the real reason or hormones rather, but it did happen when she went back to meat eating. So strange right
So every night i was with cetaphil, use a LRP moisturizer, then put on my prescribed azealic acid then 15 min later i use my prescribed retin-a. my skin is VERY dry. i have no idea what to do. do i stop the azealic acid?
Heyy Cassandra i have done everything i mean everything under the sun from regular use of salicylic acid, benzoyl peroxide, adapalene, clindamycin phosphate regularly. But my skin has never cleared😢 I am 19 right now even my dermat is confused
Have you tried any oral medications like accutane. I know those can be very helpful
@@lindseystein9676 nope I haven't that's the last resort
How often do you do the AHA peel per week?
