5 Best Supplements For Clear Skin
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 сер 2024
- My skin has become far less reactive the last few years due to some changes I've made to my skincare routine and my diet. Taking vitamins and minerals to supplement my diet where I've been deficient has helped lower inflammation and hormonal response noticeably. For a long time now, I've been seeking more holistic treatments rather than just treating symptoms or damage control. When my skin is reacting, it's symptomatic of imbalance in my health. This video highlights the 5 supplements I believe have helped not just my physical well-being but have had a big impact on the inflammation in my skin. I will also explain why I avoid popular supplements like Evening Primrose Oil. Again, we are all built differently and this is what has helped me. All these supplements were recommended to me by a Dr. I suggest you get the approval of a medical professional before taking any supplement. Enjoy, my skinthusiast family!
Oh and I do take these vitamins daily but at different times as some require an empty stomach while others are better taken with food.

We have a saying in Hungarian "one can look at the sun but not at her" meaning that you are so beautiful you shine brighter than the sun and that comes to my mind whenever I see you .
Tímea Tarjányi We have the same saying in Romanian 😊! And I agree, Renee is so beautiful, elegant, she is in a class of her own (I can only compare her with Lisa Eldridge, whom I also love)! And of course very intelligent and articulate, which is a rare occurrence on social media...
Tímea Tarjányi What a beautiful saying!
Omg. Your comment has given me goosebumps it's so beautiful and I'm so touched. I always love when you comment but this, I will always remember! Thank you, my love for giving me the feels, I can't even! 💗
You are just too kind to me! Thank you for just putting me in the same sentence as the exquisite Lisa.
I agree. There is so much fake and self-serving on youtube. Renee is refreshing!
A very no-nonsense, informative and measured approach to skincare! No random hype products or anything, which can be a little hard to find nowadays. Subbed!
Thank you Caitlin!
Had acne all my life. Tried everything under the sun...topically and internally. REMOVE GLUTEN. Acne gone.
The Visionary my friend did it this way too. Her acne was worse than mine and now it’s flawless. If you see this, can you possibly give me an average meal plan for the day for yourself?
Maybe that’s because you’re gluten intolerant
Same for me but with dairy instead!
@@Paramount884 UPDATE PLS
@@sittiemaimonahabuat4429 Oh hi, tbh I spoke too soon with that comment hahaha my acne came back not long after going off gluten. But I've been using acne.org's bp gel for like 3 months and I'm completely clear. Only thing that's ever worked and I've tried everything under the sun
You are one of the rare gems here in UA-cam. I love the scientific approach you do when you talk about skincare. You saved my skin so much Renée, you also saved me lots of money because of you I don't even have to visit my dermatologist. I will surely take these supplements. Thank you so much Renée, love ya!
Thank you Kookie! 😁
I should be the one to thank you😊
Pickled vegetables and kombucha are also a good source of pro biotics. Generally fermented stuff is healthy and should be part of a diet.
does kevita kombucha count? (flavored kombucha)
yes it does! i can only drink the flavoured kind otherwise it's just too sour.
I love kimchi and sauerkraut!
Gothamista Omg you answered me thank you! :) I like kimchi too❤️
alice333 definitely gonna take on this advice... Never been fascinated by pickled foods.. 😂
As a Med student, we were advised by our professors to not prescribe zinc for more than three month. It is absorbed with the same carrier that also transports iron or copper. That means while taking zinc supplements, you might get deficient in iron or other micronutrients that use the same carrier in your intestine because the carriers are "blocked" by zinc. An exception here is obviously if a patient has an actual deficiency in zinc.
MsJB93 that is so interesting. What about magnesium for non deficient people, taken for bruxism?
Thank you for this information!
Thanks for the information
MsJB93 I've had a Zinc deficiency for over a year. I've tried many different types of zinc but my blood results don't change. It's so frustrating !!!!!!!!
I wish you could elaborate more on this comment about zinc. Sounds like it's not something people should be taking all the time.
I suffered from hormonal acne for years. Last year I was recommended to take a supplement called DIM . I stared taking it and New zits stopped appearing and my face was completely clear after one month. Love all the information you provide. I feel like I learn something new every time I watch your videos!
Nawras Sattar|قناة نونو مداأصدك 😅 .. نورس .. شلونج ❤
Hi! Can u tell me where u bought the DIM please
Nawras Sattar|قناة نونو DIM?
I tried DIM and had no improvement 😕. Different things for different people, unfortunately I haven’t found mine yet.
Same.
Tati's halo Hair Skin and Nails vitamin has been so amazing for my skin and it's hydration, supplness. No breakouts. Im glowing! One of many things that is different about this vitamin is the inclusion of ceramides. Skin changing!
Words just can't describe how thankful I am to have found you and your channel! 😍❤
Miki xo i agree
Thank you for finding me!
I suffered from acne too every time . Took tons of supplements just like you mentioned and it does helped to control my acne but then again it will pops up. We all have different skin types and how our body reacts to supplements , observe and listen to your body. For me I cleared my skin by :
1. Exercise : more on cardio ( the best detox is when you sweat )
2. Avoiding nuts ( if you have allergies from it )
3. Limit dairy products
4. Avoiding sugary and processed foods
5. Excessive salt intake
6. Supplements - zinc , probiotics
7. Good skin care ( know ur skin type)
Hi Renée, I just want to thank you for sharing this information. I have had hormonal acne on my chin for years and what worried me more than the cosmetic factor of dealing with breakouts was the fact that my body was trying to tell me something was wrong and I didn't know how to help it. No topical product made any lasting difference, and neither did spironolactone. But for the past month or so I have avoided most dairy and taken a hair/nails supplement, zinc, omega 3, and vitamin B, and my skin improved almost immediately! I used to get a giant, angry zit at least once per week and I've had a total of two zits in the past month, both of which faded back into my skin as you have described happening to you. I also look forward to drinking matcha daily (what a delicious and nourishing way to treat acne!). I'm truly so thankful that I found your channel and that you have shared your personal journey towards skin health so openly. Obviously everyone's root cause of acne varies but I think mine was very similar to yours and now you've actually changed my life. My whole body just feels happier. Thank you thank you!!
Your skin looks AMAZING, it just looks more beautiful in every video!! I recommend your channel to everyone I know. So they can educate themselves about their skin and skincare. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge!!🦋
You are a sweetheart!
I do the same! I'm a skincare junkie so I'm always on other skincare channels spreading the word about/recommending Renee's channel😍
Renée, I have never previously commented on a UA-cam video, however, after having subscribed & watched your channel for a few months I, too, just had to let you know how grateful I am to have found you!
Your elegance, wonderful personable demeanour, and knowledge of science based skincare is breath of fresh air! Please always continue to do what you do ❤️
Aw Sarah, this means so much to me! Thank you for commenting, as someone who isn't a 'commenter' myself, I can really appreciate the gesture. Thank you for the love girl!
Gothamista I’m so happy to see your reply! You are most welcome and you’re such a sweetheart 💕
It would be great if you actually showed the brand name of the supplements you are taking. Thanks
I’ve suffered hormonal acne for many years did a lot of research, started taking Glutathione as my supplement, have more vegetables and avoid sugar, dairy etc.... it works!!!
Collagen also
me too
Glutathione is very dangerous whether ingested internally or applied topically
@@itsjustme3913 why is that seen alot of reviews about the benefits. Have you had any negative experience? Just bought the liposmal gluthathione
Iyenemi Whyte no. I’ve never used it because I’ve seen doctors saying negative things about it. Glutathione is a brightening/whitening agent and that’s why dermatologists prescribe it for their patients who have acne scars and severe hyperpigmentation. There’s a % that’s safe and that’s why it’s only a doctor prescribed thing.
Buying it over the counter, is very dangerous therefore I wouldn’t recommend it. As for the one you’ve just bought, go see a doctor and let them tell you whether it’s safe or not. Better safe than sorry
I agree with all of those supplements, however I would also add a gelatin/collagen supplement. Or one can just consume bone broth. It gives you THE most amazing glow! :)
bone broth is everything!!
But how much collagen dosage per day is recommended?
@@sabbykohli im responding from my experience. i take vitamin c, which has collagen in it. my vit c dosage is 300mg
@@sabbykohli what i heard you cant take it more than 1000mg and above
I heard you get that from meat though? Or is it different than the pill
This was so informative and easy to understand. I was especially happy to hear about vitamin d3 and omega 3 VS 6. I have all over full body inflammation and this make things make more sense to me. I love watching your videos.
You’re absolutely right. I personally take zinc, probiotics in food (i.e. kimchi, sauerkraut, pickled olives), D3+ K2, b-complex, vegan omega 3, and glutathione and my skin is FLAWLESS!
But kimchi is spicy is that okay ? And u buy kimchi at supermarket or you do it yourself?
Good to know. I started taking supplements a few months ago ( the ones you mentioned and more ) and I do notice a difference on my skin. My acne has almost completely disappeared. Hopefully in the near future I can finally see my skin back to its healthy self.
Are those dimples omg. How cute
D 3 bcomplex fish oil collagen [
I remember when Renee's channel had just about 70K subscribers, and now it's over 200K! Congrats, Renee, you truly deserve it!
After seeing several youtubers recommend zinc to help with acne, I began taking that Bluebonnet 50mg zinc supplement. Eventually after taking it every day for a couple of weeks, I began feeling sicker and sicker. I could not get thru the day without multiple naps. I finally became concerned when I began vomiting due to extreme nausea a few times a day maybe once or twice a week At first I thought it was from not taking with food but it happened WITH food as well! Long story short (too late), 50mg is a pretty high dose of zinc. It was too much for me apparently and I've been fine ever since stopping. Just throwing that out there, because it took me months and a lot of torment to figure out what was happening. Definitely be cautious with these things. 😉
Casey W. 50 mg is what skindoctors prescribe When you have extremely bad acne but and here comes a Big but mine said that many people cant tolerate more than 15 to 25 so she recommended starting out high and then going lower and divide it up in two doses lunch and dinner and take it with food always plus also do it in cures ie 3 months stop give it 2-3 months start again . So unfortunatly much more complicated than you might Think and as you’ve noticed to much and not divided and you Will get as sick as a dog
Was it Zinc depot or regular?
...But was your skin clear?
@@jaritamccully3797 the important question haha
Too much zinc, about 40 or more mgs everyday, will lower copper and make you'll feel sick. We need some copper.
Hi Renee, you are so elegant and beautiful here! My condolences on what happened with your dad. I'm sure he's proud of you for the kind of person you've grown into. Stay strong!
Also, I want to thank you for creating this great channel. I have been getting so many compliments about my skin and it was all hard earned work and research and your channel was the only one I can rely on for solid advice. Thank you so much renee. I dont now you personally but from your channel I can tell that you are an amazing person and so generous for sharing what you know. I dont feel the need to consult a Derma because i have learned to "listen" to mys skin and your advice from your channel is top on my very short list.
Take care always renee. You have a big fan base here in the philippines!
I just love the way you talk - every sentence you say just seems to be clear and perfect and intelligent somehow... and your voice is great
Thank you Maddie!
I really love this Renée! These are the exact supplements my family are taking to support overall health! For us, it's not only great for the skin but also for gut health to help IBS, new allergies and fatigue symptoms. I'm so happy that you are sharing this and more people can be aware how they can support not only their skin but also their overall health!
As a hormonal acne sufferer, this couldn't come at the perfect time. I am loving your videos Renee. Its very informative and well reaearched. Keep up the good work!! :)
Thank you Julie!
Literally taking notes while this woman is talking. I'm 32 years old, doesnt use sun screen, sleep and nutrition deprived . In Philippines, even middle class working women are not properly educated in skin and overall health care. Will need to change my overall diet and life style. Subscribed!
I never comment on UA-cam videos, but I feel like I have to thank you for your videos. They are so easy to understand and very comprehensive. Before buying anything for my skin I always look for your videos beforehand. Please continue!
i took zinc when i was 19 years old and it helped a TON, seriously try it out. it's also inexpensive
How many mg a day? :)
Kylie Smith how much and for how long please
Kylie Smith whats brand your zinc supplement you consume? And whats dosage?
I take 50 mg a day with 1200 mg of fish oil. Also apply aloe vera gel and my acne is not even 5% as bad as it used to be. I would feel uncomfortable even taking my shirt off but now its not even an issue
Have been taking Omega 3 and Vitamin B6 every single day, thanks for the enlightenment about D and Zinc! Didn't know Zinc is so cool :)
Here immediately as always. You are awesome. I take omega 3 and evening primrose but will do more research on the primrose. I had terrible hormonal acne but lost weight, changed my diet, and added supplements and even though I am still oily, I have not seen as much as a pimple in five years. I am a 55 year old very fair black woman who skin is completely clear, even toned and I don’t have a fine line or wrinkle on my face. Genectics and ethnicity are big players but my skin routine is serious and consistent and I see a dermatologist 2x yearly without fail. Good skin takes a commitment but the things need to do, especially in your day to day lifestyle are just good overall. I love your videos and your approach to beauty. I never miss a video!!
Warrior Protocol what brand of omega3 and EPO that you consume? I've consume omega3 3in1 from nature's health for metabolism and just realized it containt EPO 400mg and a bit scared abs the effect.
I have had really bad Atopic Dermatitis since I was a child. Recent 8 years I have had occasional flare-ups that were gone after max 4 days. This time I was suffering a lot for over a month and a half with constant redness, itchiness, flakiness, patchy rashes and cracked skin around cracked corners of the mouth..I have not had as bad skin in over 8 years! I had dermatitis around my face and on my hands. I tried many creams prescripted by dermatologists but as soon as it started to get a bit better it got worse the next day. I was keeping a diet - diary and gluten free. But nothing really helped.
I stopped using pescripted creams and started trying different home remedies. I can finally say that my skin cleared up and what worked the best for me is taking MSM and B-complex. I still cannot believe how magically it worked after using it just over 2 weeks. I have not had such beautiful skin in years!
What I also do is drink a mix of table spoon (using plastic or wooden one) full of honey and a tea spoon of turmeric in warm water before eating in the morning; drink green tea (I order mine from China); do face massage and face yoga on daily basis and stress as less as possible. Taking magnesium is also very good to take in stress period but for me working out and be active helps me so so much. When it comes to creams I do tend to change it after a month or two (when the climate changes) but right now I use pure Vaseline and in the evening I also put a few drops of rosehip oil in it. It leaves my skin super soft.
I know this video is more for acne treatment but anyone with atopic dermatitis this is what works the best for me :)
thank u....
I LOLed at "and for once, we're not talking about sunscreen." 😂
I take Magnesium + Zinc for a good boost to my immune system and I just find that it really works for me, helps with energy levels and stress. Also, I used to take Biotin for hair (stopped now, but want to go back to it) and some Fountain Molecules from deciem! I'm currently loving the Geek Molecule and I quite enjoyed the Beauty Molecule, but seen more results from the Geek one.
Thank you for the video! You look great, as always!
Im so glad you mentioned a disclaimer about these. People should proceed with caution. I kept trying out probiotics in my protein powder and realized my body just doesnt like probiotics, i get really sick and have crazy gut pains from them. However my body loves fish oil and my doctor has recommended me take Vitamin D. So everyone is different. Please consult a doctor and listen to your body before blindly taking all of these :))
Too much zinc can deplete your selenium storage and cause copper deficiency
You're skin glows and looks hydrated!
I always love how informative you are!
Thank you Mary!
I'm here to thank you from the bottom of my heart for the information you provided in this video. I related to your story and I was just getting off the pill when I watched this. I tried stopping the pill once and I had awful hormonal imbalance and breakouts like I never had in my life. Ended up going back to the pill. One day I decided to stop no matter the consequences, I watched this video and after some additional research, bought all the 5 supplements you indicated. I swear my skin changed completely in 2 days. The breakouts that were starting to appear in my jawline and chin disappeared. I still have an oily face but is much more controlled and is probably something natural for my genetics that the pill was holding back. Still, I don't have the red, inflamed breakouts I was afraid of. I have glowy, healthy skin. Thank you!!!
I’m 54 y/o my everyday vitamins is avocado, i shake, i eat it 2 small size of avocado 2x a week with my lacto free milk, and my skin starts to glow.,thats what I notice😊❤️
Yes! I cannot have cow's milk unless it is hard, aged cheese.
I currently take a women’s multivitamin, zinc, vitamin c, evening primrose oil, probiotics, and milk thistle which i hear is great for removing toxins that lead to acne☺️ I have also read that chlorella and spirulina are great as well
glowingmyway and was it effective for you?
Nutritional Yeast is you best source for your B Complex Vitamins - One tablespoon of nutritional yeast contains 180% of the RDI for B vitamins.
how to use this yeast plz tell me
Brekhna Yousaf dont bother. Nutritional yeast and also mess up your gut biome. Especially if you have candida
1. Zinc
2. Probiotics
3. Vitamin B complex
4. Omaga3 & evening primrose
5. Vitamin D3
Everything that you mentioned aside from probiotics are supplements needed for the liver to properly function ! What I’ve noticed anything that helps the liver usually clears my acne ! Dirty liver equals acne
I have PCOS and suffer from hormonal acne. I visited a gynecologist and asked if there was anything I could do to help regulate my cycles after they were messed up by the pill (and of course my acne had came back). He suggested I take a supplement called Inofert, which contains inositol (a vitamin B) and folic acid. He said it would help regulate my cycles and also work great on my hormonal acne. I also read online it really helped other people like me. Well, that didn't go as planned! Although it worked wonders on my cycle, from the third day of taking it I started breaking out on my forehead (which I never did before, I mostly break out on my cheeks and chin). After taking them for about 2 months, my skin was so bad I could not believe it. It kinda looked like cystic acne because it was inflamed and would hurt so much!! My skin was at its worst (plus it was summer and the sun and heat did not help at all). I cried every day. When I stoped taking it, my skin slowly came back to normal, but with lots of hyperpigmentation left. So you should always consider that just because something helps some people, it may not work for you as well
Look into Organic Olivia's Parapro supplement. I've had severe hormonal acne for years and have even been on Accutane and that's the only thing that helped me along with taking a probiotics and lysine like she suggests. She's on UA-cam
Lena Chatz I heard B vitamins in general break people out. Idk why though
Thank you for the information everyone!
Ella Schroth i was super curious about her supplements! I got weirded out and felt like it was a little pseudo sciencie and it's kind of expensive so got scared away. Also wasn't sure if it would really help a mere mortal like me since my diet isn't amazing and I don't really exercise. How long did it take for you to start seeing results?
Laura Shible this is great! I will give this a try, I hope everything goes well for you :)
Turmeric supplements and they have definitely reduced my acne significantly ! Can't wait to try the Zinc and balanced b complex
How does she look younger in every video! Awesome video as always!Thank you very much! Life style change and proper "diet" are life changing, food is medicine. Thank you very much for your wealth of knowledge and for sharing it with us🌺You da bomb💎
Haha you are soo sweet!
I was deficient in zinc (just below the lower end of the range) due to years of being a vegetarian (I quit due to leaky gut and loads of deficiencies I developed on this diet). But at first I did not make the connection to my late acne in the chin area that I aquired after quitting birth control. I literally got new spots every day for many years and almost every blemish cream or kind of specific skincare made my skin break out additionally. The only serum and moisturizer that didn‘t clog my pores was from an UK based natural brand that has an acne blemish prone skin care line. I ordered it half across europe. My late acne was still there. Then I finally found the endurance to take zinc on a daily basis mainly to improve impaired immune function because of the zinc deficiency. After 60 days of 50mg zinc gluconate daily I started to notice a difference in skin texture and less break outs. I got a blood test too and was a little bit above the lower range. It takes very long to cure a zinc deficiency. Now after 4 month I have almost no blemishes on the chin anymore, it‘s like a miracle to me. On some days I almost forgot to apply make up since my skin looked so even. I have to say I tried true retinol from cod liver oil too for a month several month ago (high dose) but it did not help with acne. D3 high dose also did nothing for my acne but for other ailments. Get a blood test for D3 and zinc before you start any of it and get blood work done later on to make sure to reach and maintain normal levels. Retinol deficiency (vitamin a) also can induce acne but do not use beta carotene (lots of people can not convert it to retinol) or sythetic retinol (poisonous) if you are deficient (there is a blood test too). Forget about all the synthetic and harmful creams dermatologist describe you need to dig deeper and find out what nutrients the body is missing or what hormone inbalances there are. Btw I healed my leaky gut by a high animal products diet (carnivore mostly) that reduced my inflammation in the body greatly. Also contributed to getting my rosacea under control.
hi renee! i think this is my favorite video of yours that you have ever posted. i liked that you thoroughly did your research on the supplements instead of just taking them for their claims :)
Thank you Tiffany! Science can make lots of claims but if they don't work and break me out, then it's no good
I love how informative your videos are and you are so beautiful 💕
Yes to all of this - every day I take a vegan probiotic, D3 oil, B vitamins, and zinc - just for health, not even for acne. And if I stop taking the probiotic, I notice right away, like everything goes out of whack so fast. Really is essential.
yes Vit D & calcium helps regulate sebum too. Also people with dry often lack in vit A
Very comprehensive video. Great job!
Thank you for always sharing your knowledge about how to take care of our skin, you really helped me a lot. God bless you always! ❤️
I take magnesium at night to help me sleep, and it seems to be working. My sleep will never be perfect (and I'm perimenopausal which makes it even worse!) but it's certainly much better after 6 weeks of magnesium.
Yes Magnesium is a miracle worker for helping me be calm and relaxed enough to sleep!
Magnesium glycinate 💤
I'm so glad I found you! I've watched so many of your videos now and feel so informed. You are a light! Thank you Thank you you thank you!
Thank you Silvia!
Renee I must say u r very soft spoken and ur videos are very educational and informative.
This was wonderful. With the exception of vitamin B, I take all of those as well as evening primrose oil (as suggested by my dermatologist) and Magnesium - which helps not only with skin concerns but also preventatively against depressive symptoms due to pms or predisposal. High impact exercise also leads me to take Glucosamine & Chondroitine for joint care. I used to also take dr. Brandt’s green tea concentrate before it was discontinued. I really really miss it, as I am sensitive to caffeine and that product was decaffeineted and highly concentrated, meaning you would get a much larger dose of green tea than you could possibly drink in a day. If you can recommend an alternative I would be grateful! 🙏
I use vitamin c, glutathione, milk thistle & evening prime rose oil
And I bet you rarely get sick right? N-acetylcysteine is amazing! (Glutathione)
I have a lot of freckles/sun spots on my arms (due to many years of sun exposure). Can you do a video on how to get rid of that? I love your videos. They are so informative.
Thank you Renee, incredibly clear, concise and educational as always. You are awesome!!
Ive taken vit d3 and zinc picolinate and it helped a lot with my hormonal acne. Ive noticed that my acne was not as inflamed as they were before and they really helped in drying them up faster. Now I'll look for the b complex and probiotic capsules because my regular intake of chia seeds cover my omega 3 consumption. Thanks for the recommendation Renee!! 😊
Kate G. Whats dossge you consume from Vit D and Zinc? Iam planning to take any supplement to help my acne and skin health. Consider to Vit B, Vit D, Vit C or Zinc. Which one you thinks it best?
Raiza Nisa H Hi! Right now Im taking 500mg of vit c, 30 mg of zinc picolinate and 400 IU of vit d3 im still on the look out for the b complex and probiotics. I just think one vitamin isnt enough to solve the problem. Also take a look at your diet, Ive noticed that cutting out sugar/ refined carbs helped tremendously. Hope this helps 😊
Kate G. Zinc picolinate its more better than gluconate aite? Not really know more about the probiotic in form of pill. Yes i cut dairy sugar gluten bein half vegan but nothing much so i thought i need more to balance my 'inside' (but not accutane or any others drug) am consider to take all your vitamin that u alreay consume. Is it VitD3 affected to ur acne?
Raiza Nisa H I cant say which one is the best because Ive started taking them all at the same time and Ive noticed a big difference from when I wasnt taking vitamins and the result after I took them.. plus i read that the picolinated form of zinc is better absorbed by the body than the gluconate one.
Kate G. Hi! May i know what brand from ur supplement? Been thinking to grab it from puritan pride/ nature's health. And are you taking those supplement at the same time? After meal at the morning?
Silica is also awesome for the skin....
Horsetail tea does wonders
Angelique Skerritt yes and Baobab tea too...
Angelique Skerritt Isn't silica pore clogging? I'm literally running from a product everytime I see Dimethicone,Silicone,Silica etc. Am I wrong?
Beyza Aydın silica is one of the vitamins your skin is made from...the older we get the less our skin absorbs this vitamin ...as a result we get wrinkles cause the collagen is not being fed .....I think its the combination of things why u broke out..... An often times that silica in the product is synthetic...... So work from the inside out .....look at the blood that's what carries oxygen to the skin ...if the liver is not doing a good job of cleaning because of the toxic buildup. the blood will carry all the waste round an around the body an it will often times show in the skin......so look into herbs to clean the blood.. What worked for me was burdock an dandelion capsules also red clover work in combination to clear all my acne...horsetail tea will strengthen the skin ...u can go online an research all of these items..... Also I use Castor oil to cleanse no harsh soap feed your skin with natural ingredients
Angelique Skerritt Thank you for enlightening me! It maybe not the silica itself but the combination I don't know but most of the sunscreen broke me out😏 I'm drinking spearmint and green tea and sometimes lavender and camomile😍 Thanks for the recommendation. Definitely try these 😍
I went to a holistic practitioner too for help with my hormonal acne and period :)
I was set to take vitamin E that helped a lot with boosting progesterone, however with time, I've felt that it has lost its effect somewhat when it comes to keeping down skin-inflammation. I also supplement daily with flax/chia/hemp seeds. ALA is really good for hormonal health, and there's a misconception that it's somewhat difficult for the body to convert to DHA and EPA, but in fact, women have a much better conversion rate than men (because men don't need it as much as women) and there's really no problem as long as you get your daily requirement or above of ALA's in (and don't have any digestive issues). But everyone's got different lifestyles, and sometimes when I travel I find it hard to get my daily requirement of omega 3/ALA and been contemplating getting an algae-based supplement.
I've recently started taking Evening Primrose oil for the GLA, and though it's omega 6, because I'm getting so much omega 3 in anyways I haven't noticed any adverse effect. Actually, it's working quite the same as vitamin E did when I first started taking it, and I'm only taking like 500mg! :D
I've been also taking L-opti zinc with copper (important that your zinc supplement has copper as these rival each other!) based on my doctors recommendations. But to tell you the truth, it did almost nothing for my skin o.O My skin has actually been better since I finished the bottle :| I don't know if it's the brand I was taking? I do try to fill up with lots of zinc foods, so maybe I was getting too much? Either way, I'll keep testing.
I also was recommended a b-complex. When I took it everyday I got a build up and experienced severe anxiety which took a few weeks to calm down after I stopped taking them. Now I only take them occasionally without any side effects. But overall, haven't noticed much with my hormones or skin. I do get plenty of B6 through diet, the only b-vitamin that sometimes faulter is B3 and of course B12 as I'm vegan. And of course I take vitamin D, it's the most prominant thing that has had any effect on my hormones when I stopped taking it. Probiotics I go back and forth on, ever since I fixed my gut issues, probiotics don't seem to have any effect on my well being whatsoever. Okay, this was long ^^ I'll stop now! Thanks for another informative video! xx
Wise, confident, and beautiful inside and out- you are an inspiration for all women. Thank you for this informative video & I'm glad I found your channel.
Thanks for your Information✌ you look so flawless and I love how you speak👏
I think Zinc also (and this is so crudely simplified) helps regulate one's insulin, which is also a sex hormone that directly interacts/moderates other sex hormones like estrogen, testosterone, and androgens :) that's the summarized tid-bit I got from a doctor who explained it way more eloquently than I can.
Selenium, and silica. Also I love horsetail for growing hair and strong nails. Because it has silica I believe. I absolutely love "He shou wu" or "fo-ti" for sleeping. If you can have good rest, then your body can repair and restore itself. Fo-ti is for strengthening the kidneys. Your adrenals are on your kidneys and basically they get worn out from stimulants. So anxiety and tension and restlessness all come from compromised kidneys. Also grey hair. The kidneys also with the lungs and large colon all remove toxins from the body... but kidneys clean the blood.
I take cordyceps and reishi supplements, and ginseng! But I'm definitely adding ALL of these thanks Renee, you are my absolute favorite person to watch. I tell everyone about you (everyone I'm talking skincare with).
hi Renee, it is so helpful. but are you taking this five at the same time? or could you recommend the order for these supplements
Hi Renee, please let us know when to take them, because i think that is very important, especially with Probiotics, when do you think its best? I hear mixed things on morning/night with/without food. Please help! Thanks so much for this video, i feel that this is one of the most helpful videos you've made so far:)
I’m also curious about this
Guys she said in her description that she does drink them everyday only in different times. Some needed to be taken on an empty stomach and some after eating
It depends on your supplement and the directions. Some may require an empty stomach while others require food. Yes, I take these daily. I take the zinc in phases when I feel my immunity needs a boost.
Gothamista so you dont consume your zinc everyday? But to others is yes?
I'm taking Omega 3, Vitamin C, Milk Thistle, and Turmeric
Wonderful! I used to take milk thistle too, amazing antioxidant!
Which supplement brand is more helpful and natural for taking daily
what is milk thistle?
Thank you for this video ... I'm on a similar journey now as you were before. A year ago, my physician tested my blood level for vitamin D and I was extremely deficient. A year later, my levels were higher but still deficient. In that one year of taking vitamin D3, I noticed a change in my skin - less sebum, less whiteheads, fewer acne and faster healing. Now that I have further increased my vitamin D3 intake, I hope to see better improvement after another year. Results will show - we need to remember to be patient with supplementation.
Xina may i know what brand of your supplement vitD3? Bcs i plan to adding vitD3 but not sure yet. Whats dosage?
Hi Raisa. I like to take a liquid D3 supplement and this particular brand is a professional one and it's a small bottle that I can easily carry around in my purse so that I don't forget to take it. Each drop is 1000mg and it has an "oily" taste but that's normal. For the first year I took 2000mg and now I'm taking 5000mg. When I first starting taking it I noticed a change 3-6 months later in my skin. The Liquid D3 I take is Bio Lonreco MCT Vit D3. If you're deficient, you will notice a change for sure! Good luck!
You are a great model for 5 Best Supplements For Clear Skin. Very good point on finding the root cause. Thanks, cheers and have a wonderful week ahead.
for me Saw massive results after omega 3
that and mulitvitamins
oh i love taking some extra magnesium to help lower stress levels and keep stress acne away
Magnesium is a miracle ! It relaxes me so much!
Please update - its 2017 - now its 2019 . Thanks in anticipation
Rene lots of love ❤️❤️❤️❤️ so blessed that I found your channel ! For hormonal Acne I also take L- Lysine as a supplement ( on top of the vitamin B, probiotic, and zinc that you are taking) ! Not many talks about it around but it actually has help me a lot ! Ohhhh and a tablespoon of gelatine powder on daily basis.... honestly I think it had the most amazing effect on my skin elasticity. I put it in my Matcha tea in the morning since it’s tasteless and odourless .
Sourkraut for the win! Thank you for an amazing video
Best thing is yo feed your gut bacteria with fruit/ veggie in the form Of smoothies really feeds gut bacteria ☺
Evening primrose oil works better for mood.
Evening primrose oil has helped my acne and also helped make my formerly irregular monthly cycle regular 😌
Is the dermatologist the best source to find what you’re deficient in, or who would you recommend? Great video, I appreciate all the information! I’ve enjoyed your channel!
you can get your blood checked at a doctor and they could see if your deficient in something though i heard it's expensive in some parts of the world to get those tests
Annual physical bloodwork can indicate deficiencies too
nobody ever told you that you look like Gabriel union, you have beautiful skin, thank you for all your videos
Love your videos. You’re very informative and knowledgeable. I truly appreciate that.
As always your videos are so informative, timely and draw attention to a "wholistic" approach to beautiful skin and health. I've taken supplements my whole life and I work in natural health and ingredients are my thing etc. I will mention one thing, Zinc is great but it depletes copper (good for skin) so you want to look for zinc supplements that contain copper. They are available. I also like BCAA's (yes, for sports guys but so much good stuff) and I am a huge fan of L Glutamine. Agree on the EPO, you breakout....for a while. Then it should stabilize. But its really tricky. Borage oil is great for skin as is Sea Buckthorn. Probiotics are good and I live in Canada so I take a brand called Bio K (rice version, not dairy) and it's fermented 50 billion. Just make sure to take your Vit D with fats (fat soluble) and Vitamin B & C can be taken anytime (water soluble.) I love love Mega Foods and I take the Balanced B. Because it's Food State, its so easy to digest and can be taken on an empty stomach. I think food state vitamins are pretty great overall to be honest. Sorry for the long note ladies....
This was extremely helpful. Thank you so much!
Rena! Thank you for all this wonderful and super helpful information! I love it, you're the best!
Rena Dempsey hi! Not real sure about the 'copper'. Bcs i want to start consume zinc (picolinate) 20mg a day to reduce my breakout, is that ok or shud i adding other supplement to balance it?
I did not know that about probiotics! Thanks for the informative info :D
Very helpful, thank you so much. Nice video.
I use a variety for a variety of reasons. Iron pills for anemia, fish oil for cholesterol, biotin for hair, skin, and nails, and a women’s daily multi vitamin. I stay away from gummies and gel caps the best I can to get more raw ingredients so to speak. The supplements plus the Korean skincare plus my healthy diet all attribute to potential pimples retreating in a day or two. Also thanks to you I am drinking matcha green tea four days a week!
Hi My dear Renne, one of your oldest quiet subscriber, have been watching you and so happy to see you with two hundred thousand over subscribers which you truly deserve and much more, you are simply the best n beautiful too; Thank you for sharing your supplements as always a great video, Bee 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😍
Hey Bee! Thank you for always being so supportive and lovely!
Hi thank you so much for this video :) how can I know if am lacking Zinc, other vitamins,probiotics and Omega3? What test should I do?
Thanks again
Great video and suggestions. Thanks for sharing
Your video may have just saved me SO MUCH EMBARRASSMENT. I heard online that Primrose oil was high in omega 3 and really didn't do any digging deeper. Eating a diet already high in omega 6 I began taking it to 'help with my acne.' I've had it for years, and it seems constant but not too terrible. It got worse, now I rarely leave the house! It's all around my jawline and chin, nothing helps. I'm not the type of girl who adores makeup because it feels cakey to me, so I always use power if I use anything at all (most of the time I enjoy being barefaced and simply spray rose water on my face and head out the door). Now I feel like I have to wear makeup just to cover this junk.
Anyhow, you said it was high in omega 6 and I thought, AHHH HAAA! Maybe this is the cause of such bad breakouts lately. Despite the breakouts I thought maybe my body was getting used to it these past 2 months, maybe my face wasn't clean enough or maybe it was x, y and z. I'm not going to take it anymore! Hopefully they sell that 'hum' brand of fish oil at the local store near me (so I can send my husband out to grab it while I put a paper bag over my head in the meantime) Thanks so much for this video!!!
Update: My acne is nearly all gone now & I've been taking fish oil pills as well as incorporating more fish into my diet. My completion seems much more smooth!
@@renewyourmind1815 you can also try algal omega 3, so you don't have to hurt fish :)
Yay! I was just putting supplements in my cart and your video helped me refine my choices! Thank you Renee 😬
I am a in my mid 50's and I still grow acne....
Thank you so much for all these informations.
I think l am gonna love mirrors again.... :)
Vitamin A and E as well as D3 and remove sugar from the diet as well as most processed carbs although I do ok with white rice.
You give so beautiful tips for people i m very happy for that thank You🙏🏼
Great video! I take most of those supplements too and in addition to these I take pycnogenol and tumeric.
Hi Rene. Thank you for this information-packed video. I am struggling with hormonal acne on my chin since early twenties ( I am in my early 30s now). After going to numerous dermatologists and trying numerous pills and creams I am ready for a different, more holistic approach. I have been so disappointed with all the "professionals" in the field thus far. I live in NYC as well, and was wondering if you would share contacts for your Dr of Integrative and functional medicine.
I had the same experience with eve primrose oil. Thabk you for sharing. So many of us learn through YEARS and decades if trial and error and then every new stage seems to bring another challenge. Hugs from MN!
Just found your channel. Coincidentally I started taking probiotics and I can already tell a difference in my skin, which was an added bonus. Binge watching your channel this weekend!
Can you make a video of cleansers (both steps) that you recommend for each skin type
Devin Mera
I take Vitamin D, B-complex, fish oil, turmeric, chlorophyll, and probiotics and my acne/redness hasn't changed at all. I eat a relatively clean and balanced diet with limited dairy and meat, I sleep 7 hours a night, and exercise daily, yet I STILL have pervasive skin problems. Not sure what to do anymore.
Kait Gardner , it could be that your acne could be fungal based rather than hormonal. Or it could be aggravated by a damaged moisture barrier or an ingredient in your skin care that you react poorly to. I hope these ideas help you
Keep up with the healthy practices but you must make sure your skin is strong enough to resist bacteria. So be gentle, don't over exfoliate, over-cleanse or go over board with drying topical treatments. Have patience love, skin takes time to heal.
Thanks! I might be using AHAs and BHAs too frequently. Does using a Clarisonic twice a day count as over exfoliating?
Thanks, I'm certainly going to investigate it
Yes, try not using a clarisonic and chill with the acids. Perhaps limit to a few times a week and see how it goes after some time.
Would love a more updated version if there’s any other vitamins you now use / work better!
This video was so helpful and inspiring
Love it
