Hey Hun I used to wear a full face litterlaly everyday I left the house and it ruind my skin, now I will go out with nothing on or sometime s just mascara and at most I will do blush and bronzer, honestly can't tell you how much better I feel and how much more happy and confident and comfortable I am with my looks and skin, it was hard at first going from full face to just mascara eyebrows, concealer and lip gloss but and my skin looked gorss but after a while it got so much better and now I don't even wear any makeup when I go out most of this time and I honestly look prittier than when I wore makeup ❤️ also foundation makes you hate your skin so it's just all round a horrible product - also sorry for writing so much but hope it helps💓
Im 18 and rarely ever wear makeup (although I wish I knew how to put it on correctly lol). The way I see it, why ruin my face more why I already have an acne problem? Wearing makeup only makes me break out
Cassandra's really out here making me feel ok about my acne... even if it doesn't go away for 10 years I know that i'm doing the right things and i'm a 'beautiful butterfly' lol. (:
If youtube was there for me years ago when I had terrible cystic acne it would've made a difference. But I'm happy its here. Don't give up. It's a battle but you gotta not give up. It's a trial.
I’m a licensed cosmetologist and licensed esthetician and I have to say, I LOVE your videos. It’s abundantly clear that you have a ton of knowledge when it comes to not just skincare, but the skin itself! Your videos are informative while light-hearted, I have learned about things I was never taught in school, and you’re just so pleasant and down to earth. You somehow breached the gap of educating and entertaining at the same time. You’re beautiful, and major kudos to you for keeping it real, splitting fact from fiction, and not wearing makeup on this platform (where trolls can be so nasty). Get it girl!
Can you please please please do an updated A.M. and P.M. skincare routine? I watched your video from 2017, which was wonderful, but I know you have taken on many new products, especially from the ordinary. I love your model of healthy skin being multi-faceted, but I also very much want to know what products you are using to this day. I have been living vegan since 2019, taking care of my mental health, and have gotten my hormones under control. I am so happy with those facets of my life, but I need to figure out what products will work for me. My skin is mostly clear except for some very small acne around my chin and some hyperpigmentation from my teenage acne years. I bought many products from the ordinary and am slowly incorporating them into my routine. So far, I love the results. I would love to see what you are using currently :) keep up the great work friend, we appreciate you. We see you. We love you.
Could we get an affordable mask recommendations video? And a sheet mask recommendation section of that video? I'm looking for affordable options for masking. I've tried a few masks but I haven't found one I 100% love yet.
I wash my face twice a day but in the morning I use a very basic, gentle cleanser and immediatly moisturize. I have tried only washing my face at night and even after a few weeks or even months my oil production never evened out. It only evens out if I properly cleanse AND moisturize.
you're such a beautiful soul!! honestly it's so true what you said about acne hurting physically and emotionally too, unless you've been through it it's hard to grasp how much of a toll it actually takes. i'm only begging my science backed skincare journey, even though i've poured so much money into skincare for years. i'm so thankful you're putting so much potentially life changing information out here for us! thank you so much cassandra
I actually started following you when you were battling your acne and admired you then. I am so amazed at how knowledgeable you have become in the scientific research circumventing this world and enjoy your down to earth recommendations. Especially when you break things down in layman's terms and offer affordable options to many high end products without compromising efficacy.
My face looks better when I don't wash it... It looks fresh and glowy 😍 I am experiencing allergy reaction with products thus i stopped using anything and see my skin looks better...
I use sunscreen everyday since I am in highschool as my dermatologist instructed, I am a redhead that was born and grew on the tropics, super sensitive. I have seen my mom get skin cancerous wounds on her face and undergo topical chemotherapy. She is a strong tolerant to pain woman and she was in pain as her skin was so irritated, it was almost raw. Yet she still doesn't care much for reapplying and staying out of the sun. I have nightmares that I go out without sunscreen because I have seen so close the effects of sun damage.
I legit have a notebook FULL of your skincare tips and you were one of the first youtubers who got me into skincare!! My skin, thanks to you, has been amazing up until recently when I had to switch birth controls. Thank you for this content!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Please can you recommend any product to use for acne, I have acne since 3 years, I tried almost all natural things, did my 6 yellow peel sessions with my dermatologist, first it got clear for a week but it started breaking out again Please it's very urgent and important for me !
Aayush Shokeen I mean, it all depends, but if it’s recurring even with a dermatologist you might need to look at getting a different one. Use gentle cleansers that are non comedogenic (designed to stay out of pores), moisturize, and use a good sunscreen. Where are you getting the acne?
@@evelynpinkley5511 I'm getting the acne on my cheeks mostly, there are many blackspots of past acne and I'm getting new one too...I'm scared if I'll get some untreatable scars for lifelong.... Acne on cheeks, on jawline near ears, some acne on forehead too... And just a few cane in my upper chest many months ago...but the chest one not increasing...
@@evelynpinkley5511 if you can recommend any method for getting rid of blackspots too, It would be really helpful Evelyn I'm thinking to try benzoyl peroxide now
Rocking right on! I too have seen miracles with cruelty-free diet (especially immune-enhancing)! NOTE: one absolutely needs some sun, as Vitamin D deficiency is widespread and is a huge risk factor to COVID-19. Vitamin D3 (cruelty-free, of course) is necessary when sunlight exposure is minimal. The UV light from the sun helps reduce most acne flair-ups.
I have been watching your channel for years bc I have cystic and hormonal acne. I have slowly over the years incorporated what you talked about. 1st I stopped eating dairy (all the large painful red zits disappeared and my acne break outs mainly happended only on my period and the week before). Then I changed products. A little bit of trail and error for what worked on my skin but i did find ones that worked and that had sunscreen built in (Korean beauty rocks and so dose Burt's bees and ROC). This year I stopped eating red meat, significantly cut my sugar intake, and started flo vitamins. This last week has been the he first time I've seen myself in the mirror with clear skin. Even my scarring/redness is so faint. I could cry I'm so happy. Thanks for your videos bc they encouraged me and I credit you for the start of my journey of ridding myself of this plague.
I found your channel 2 years ago, followed your tips, understood the science behind it and realised what works for me and what not. The ONLY thing that still is making my life struggle is the hyper pigmentation that I got from acne. I'm a girl of pigment and l live in Asia, have to face strong sun light and ways that make it hard for me to get spotless skin. I use sun screen too but nothing works. Plz make a video about this problem too It hurts...
Since I started watching your videos, I've completely overhauled my skincare routine. I've struggled with cystic and hormonal acne since highschool and it's gotten SO much better in the past year. I feel comfortable in my own skin and it is only getting better.
You're right but it's easy to say to use sunscreen everyday...most sunscreens are soo small (only 50 ml) and overpriced... I can't afford it... I use them but not everyday. I'm envy of those people who can afford them.. but I agree, it's probably the most effective skincare habit.
Omg. I just found you. And I love you already!!! I stopped wearing any makeup when I was in my 20s and my acne completely cleared up! Now I just have random hormonal and stress breakouts
I’ve been so thankful I found you. I’ve been struggling with my skin since 6 grade and it would hurt when everyone just naturally walked into school with clear skin. While I had really bad pimples on my forehead, and chin. And you watch these videos that’ll tell you to do this, then the next one tells you not to. I’m in college now I just noticed how my skin has just improved for since I found your channel 4 months ago.
i LOVE this!! my face looks good in the morning and I personally don't feel like cleansing my face every morning cause I have combo skin and i fear by doing that my face would break out but I did anyway cause I didn't wanna "fail" skincare. Now I can do that and not feel bad about it. THANK YOU!!!
I used to be kind of "whatever" to sunscreen and even went through a "I don't trust sunscreen" phase ...until my father got melanoma on his face. My tune changed real quickly after that... I can only imagine how good my skin would look if I had been wearing spf 50 everyday from the time I was a teenager though.
I seriously love your channel so much. Also thanks to you I stopped cleansing my skin with gel/foam in the morning and my skin is less irritated and dry. I would never thought to do that.
My problem is trying to find a good cruelty free daytime face moisturizer with a high SPF of like 30 that is readily available in stores....this is next to IMPOSSIBLE where I live.
The thing I wonder is if I have to wear sunscreen in the winter months. I live in Oregon and the UV index in the winter is 0 (I've checked before), also I have olive skin and do not burn easily. I understand people say you need to wear this year round but I also feel like the people saying this live in places like southern california and Florida. The UV index is literally 0 in Oregon during the winter.
You are good stuff: pure beauty, and full of love. Nobody can reach higher than that. Thank you for what you do and what you stand for. You have all of my respect.
I had oily skin on my forehead and nose from ages 10 to 16! The only thing that kept my face clear was washing it several times a day, like every 2 to 3 hours! This was from ages 10 to about 14, and it kept me looking GREAT! If they only had Accutane back then, in the 1960s! Most of my classmates had FLAWLESS skin until high school, when some of them had Acne as seniors! (Not the same group though)
I so relate to your parents shaking the shit out of you to get sunblock on. I’m the whitest person i know, and i never understood why my parents cared about my skin so much. Now i’m covered in freckles and sun damage i wish i had listened to those words of wisdom.
@。。i stan too many groups Hi, if you have Instagram you can look at Caroline Hirons' video since it's pretty complete and Informative ( the one where she wears a red t-shirt), but basically Susan kept promoting Naturium products in a few of her videos, saying she just discovered the brand and she got it from PR, when she is actually the co-founder and obviously didn't disclose it. I'm quite sure this is an FTC violation! She has also been deleting comments of people calling her out and has deleted comments in her FB group (also comments about BLM, saying that the group is about skincare and not about other subjects like human rights). Also, when promoting Naturium she said " I've found something better than The Ordinary and I was able to get a discount code for it "....yes, her own brand, again, without disclosing her personal and financial relationships with it.
I have followed you since your second video I think yearsss ago thank you for sharing all of your experiences and love with us you are beautiful as always and I appreciate you !
I'm only prone to acne and pimples, but your skin still looks better than mine :) I never used wipes to remove my makeup because I'm cheap AF XD But the downside of that was also that I was always scared of buying any skincare over 10 eur because I was scared it wouldn't work for me and I would just lose money ... I only wish I had access to this kind of information when I was a teenager in the 2000s; I'm in my late 20s now and just starting to really care for my skin which is a shame cuz I would've been grateful knowing all this in high school xD I do think companies should have strived for more transparency and education about the ingredients, most of us are not studying chemistry, but that doesn't mean that we can't learn some basics of skincare formulas. I've learned a lot over these past few months during the quarantine when I discovered a plethora of scientists, dermatologists, and skincare junkies, and this new knowledge really makes me excited about all the skincare that would probably suit my skin and I will test it in the future. I think it's a shame that companies focus only on advertising and marketing, promising something but if the product doesn't work for you, you as a consumer feel like there's something wrong with you not the formula. This tactic of keeping buyers ignorant is really a miss for me, because the comanies think people will keep buying products blindly, but unsatisfied consumers often just give up and the company perhaps initially gained some financial gain from that individual, but if they would have put some effort in educating the consumers, those consumers would have found what works for them and thus become loyal buyers. That would have been a much more sustainable tactic. Thanks for great content & good luck!
finally i found this channel. your confidence really inspire me and i really agree that we have to do our own research before decide to buy products and don't let marketing fools u
Cassandra, what are your thoughts on what Susan Yara has done (promoting Naturium products for the last few months & her announcing today that shes the owner)?
I really hate how youtube is now putting the ads in the middle of the video now, I don't know if it's only for me though... but is really annoying to miss the train of thought of such good videos!!!
I’ve struggled with acne, my dermatologist even cured me, but then it came again after 2 years. Suddenly, it stopped about 3 weeks ago. I was shocked. Even my post acne are almost invisible now (though usually it took about 6 months to heal), I can go outside without any makeup. I’ve thought about changes in my life, and this is what I discovered: 1. I took 2 Maine coon cats - it was my dream))) SO, I stopped being nervous. (Maybe this is important: I’m being treated for depression). So cats really help me to cope with my condition. 2. Last weeks I was all about cats, so I stopped washing my face every day. And my skin is MUCH better now! I love it’s healthy color, humidity level, even skin elasticity is a way better now! Now I wash my face once in a 3 days. I guess these things help me the most. But also I did these things even be fore: Eat healthy food. If it’s hard for you, take this advice: don’t change your diet dramatically, but do add vegetables and greens. It really helps a lot. I stopped eating dairy products. I sleep enough every day. Unfortunately, I don’t train regularly so far, but I do this from time to time to keep fit. Also when I’m very lazy to do sports, I dance. This is fun, it makes my mood and helps my body. Good luck to all of us!!!🤜🏻🤛🏻❤️
I’ve been following you since the floral couch on the floor video days so it’s so nice to see how much happier you are with your skin (and in general) now 💕
Video recommendation: Inkey list review. Sorta how you do with the ordinary. It's a good brand and budget friendly only being a few more dollars than the ordinary.
I'm trying to build a sunscreen habit/ I have severely damaged my skin over the past few years. I am only 23 and have very deep under eye wrinkles and crows feet. Because of my medium skin completion with very yellow undertones, sunscreens are quite tricky for me. The ones that work are quite expensive. I'm trying to use cheap ones with a white cast when going out top exercise and using the more expensive Korean ones when going to work.
You have made such a difference in my skin condition. I cured my post acne hyperpigmentation thanks to you! Especially loved your vids with The Ordinary. Also-i wish you'd wear your hair natural more often, your curls are so gorgeous!!
@@aartiniranjan1533 i used the ordinary's retinol, glycolic acid toner and aha&bha chemical peel. Used these for over a year and it definitely helped me keep control of my acne and fade scars way faster. I also use their niacinamide and i love it.
Hi Cassie!! Waiting for The Inkey List review video. I was hoping to purchase some Inkey List products and I value your judgement .Drop it whenever you are ready please. Thanks.Take care
Hi Cassandra! I also have fallen in love with masks. Lately my love has taken a backseat- I used to do them once-twice a week before bed or in the morning before a shower but I have not prioritized them. Can you do a video of the different masks you like to use or approve of the formularies? I have not seen any videos about facial masks besides the ordinary's bha mask.
I'm so happy I found your channel! Your videos are so informative and useful - you spend a lot of time on these. I also have cystic acne - your videos give me hope to manage it!
I really love your message of intentionality especially in regards to cruelty free beauty products and why/how you’re using any product. Thanks for your beautiful presence in the skincare world! I’m so happy turning and learning.
Do you have/could you potentially make a video on modelling with acne? I'm about to begin modelling and have some shoots booked, but I'm just concerned how my acne may affect the shoots. Eg. Should you tell the team before hand? Should you do your own makeup? Will the make-up artist need more time? Etc etc. That would be a hugeeee help! Thank you 😘💜xx
I just found your channel. Your content is amazing and I love your personality & the way u present. Your super entertaining, yet very informative. Thank u so much!
i've been following you for the past decade. you are such an inspiration, your evolution is truly inspiring - from going vegan, to all natural holistic products - the planet need more of this.
Im not sure if silicones in clinique are good kinda confused not sure. Im not sure if ive been trapping junk in my skin and its not renewing itself with it. They’re saying that silicone filled stuff actually dries it out and does a temporary seal. Idk they seem Pretty friendly to me but im overly oily later on. Im getting mixed research. If you can make a video about that. I have no idea; otherwise what to use that’s for sensitive skin, with oily combination skin for day. I do see that i get red rashing from alot of products. My skin has been pretty clear otherwise using clinique i think. I started vichy liftactive night cream to skin cell renew my skin vs using harsh retinoids. Could be that not sure.? Been trying stupid primers. To keep the junk out of my pores but i cant use any salicylic acid atm due to pregnancy which of course was the best by NYX the spray and use it as a setting spray.
Cassandra could you please make a video about hormonal acne and its treatments? Also i think it would be very helpful for many of us to make a video and discuss about pills like spironolactone, birth control etc. I personally need your orinion on this topic!
Hi Cassandra; First of all I have to say I LOVE YOUR VIBE & ENERGY !!! Thank you for all your videos I have seen so far. So informative & honest. I also appreciate that you include the info whether a product is animal friendly (Very valuable information for me!!!!). BIG THANKS I have got few questions; the first one is: Do I have to use sun protection cream if I live in UK? (not much Sun here). I do not like using/buying things which are not necessary. 2nd question is : What do you think about DIY cosmetic products? - I am really trying to buy as little plastic containers as possible. Looking forward to your opinions. All the Best. Ewa
Hi Cassandra! Thank you so much for another super informative video it so clear that if you put a lot of time in creating your content!! I've started washing my face with water only in the morning and I started using SPF everyday too! I was wondering if you will address the Susan Yara/Naturium situation? Thanks
Great video! So glad I found your channel, everything you say I agree with, especially going cruelty free. I’m now committed, as I also love animals so much and don’t want to be a hypocrite. Your skin looks amazing btw, so healthy and radiant!
Hi Cassandra, your second point about sunscreen is evidently important. I'm wondering whether you can use sun-protecting agents in combination with daily moisturiser? For example using a moisturiser that has SPF 50+ in it as opposed to a seperate moisturiser and sunscreen? I love your videos thank you for educating us !! x
Omg I really love her. She's really inspiring me to have the same goal even in lifestyle and the products we use morally... I'm still not acne free but my skin has gone lot better.. And I'm kinda having hard time when it comes to my period cause jts when they start to come out and makes the progress slow... But it has gotten better than before, I really take everything I watch in this channel like the turn and learn method I can't forget it! and I feel glad cause it almost feels like I've been consulting dermatologist 😊 so informative and educational too. 🌻🦋

(7.50) "All my purchases became intentional, and I started enjoying them more"...best statement ever! Thanks, Cassandra! :)
Yes! That point resonated with me so much.
My big change happened when I started intensely moisturizing my face and dedicating a good portion of my skincare routine to hydrating my skin.
I am currently here trying to figure out good moisturisers lol. hope it will help me too :)
So well spoken, kind and caring. Not to mention your classic beauty. Full package! ❤️
I’ve been so thankful I found you. I’ve been struggling with my skin since 6 grade and it would hurt when everyone just naturally walked into school with clear skin. While I had really bad pimples on my forehead, and chin. And you watch these videos that’ll tell you to do this, then the next one tells you not to. I’m in college now I just noticed how my skin has just improved for since I found your channel 4 months ago.
Im so glad this channel exists. Your skin care and self-care journey inspired me take care of myself even more. Thank you!💖
i LOVE this!! my face looks good in the morning and I personally don't feel like cleansing my face every morning cause I have combo skin and i fear by doing that my face would break out but I did anyway cause I didn't wanna "fail" skincare. Now I can do that and not feel bad about it. THANK YOU!!!
love this ✨✨💞
I used to be kind of "whatever" to sunscreen and even went through a "I don't trust sunscreen" phase ...until my father got melanoma on his face. My tune changed real quickly after that... I can only imagine how good my skin would look if I had been wearing spf 50 everyday from the time I was a teenager though.
I seriously love your channel so much. Also thanks to you I stopped cleansing my skin with gel/foam in the morning and my skin is less irritated and dry. I would never thought to do that.
My problem is trying to find a good cruelty free daytime face moisturizer with a high SPF of like 30 that is readily available in stores....this is next to IMPOSSIBLE where I live.
The thing I wonder is if I have to wear sunscreen in the winter months. I live in Oregon and the UV index in the winter is 0 (I've checked before), also I have olive skin and do not burn easily. I understand people say you need to wear this year round but I also feel like the people saying this live in places like southern california and Florida. The UV index is literally 0 in Oregon during the winter.
You are good stuff: pure beauty, and full of love. Nobody can reach higher than that. Thank you for what you do and what you stand for. You have all of my respect.
I think that in section temperature therapy, it is better that you elaborate which process is best cold and which one is hot
During daily face wash,would you suggest either hot water/cold water rinsing? Thank you so much!
I had oily skin on my forehead and nose from ages 10 to 16! The only thing that kept my face clear was washing it several times a day, like every 2 to 3 hours! This was from ages 10 to about 14, and it kept me looking GREAT! If they only had Accutane back then, in the 1960s! Most of my classmates had FLAWLESS skin until high school, when some of them had Acne as seniors! (Not the same group though)
I so relate to your parents shaking the shit out of you to get sunblock on. I’m the whitest person i know, and i never understood why my parents cared about my skin so much. Now i’m covered in freckles and sun damage i wish i had listened to those words of wisdom.
Hi Cassandra! Love your work. Just a question: will you address the whole Susan yara/ naturium situation?
I'm also curious about this, but I understand if people dont wanna criticize Susan publicly about it
@@rita.itsa.m I get how criticizing her might be tricky, she is very powerful in the industry
@。。i stan too many groups Hi, if you have Instagram you can look at Caroline Hirons' video since it's pretty complete and Informative ( the one where she wears a red t-shirt), but basically Susan kept promoting Naturium products in a few of her videos, saying she just discovered the brand and she got it from PR, when she is actually the co-founder and obviously didn't disclose it. I'm quite sure this is an FTC violation! She has also been deleting comments of people calling her out and has deleted comments in her FB group (also comments about BLM, saying that the group is about skincare and not about other subjects like human rights). Also, when promoting Naturium she said " I've found something better than The Ordinary and I was able to get a discount code for it "....yes, her own brand, again, without disclosing her personal and financial relationships with it.
I have followed you since your second video I think yearsss ago thank you for sharing all of your experiences and love with us you are beautiful as always and I appreciate you !
I'm only prone to acne and pimples, but your skin still looks better than mine :)
I never used wipes to remove my makeup because I'm cheap AF XD But the downside of that was also that I was always scared of buying any skincare over 10 eur because I was scared it wouldn't work for me and I would just lose money ... I only wish I had access to this kind of information when I was a teenager in the 2000s; I'm in my late 20s now and just starting to really care for my skin which is a shame cuz I would've been grateful knowing all this in high school xD
I do think companies should have strived for more transparency and education about the ingredients, most of us are not studying chemistry, but that doesn't mean that we can't learn some basics of skincare formulas. I've learned a lot over these past few months during the quarantine when I discovered a plethora of scientists, dermatologists, and skincare junkies, and this new knowledge really makes me excited about all the skincare that would probably suit my skin and I will test it in the future. I think it's a shame that companies focus only on advertising and marketing, promising something but if the product doesn't work for you, you as a consumer feel like there's something wrong with you not the formula. This tactic of keeping buyers ignorant is really a miss for me, because the comanies think people will keep buying products blindly, but unsatisfied consumers often just give up and the company perhaps initially gained some financial gain from that individual, but if they would have put some effort in educating the consumers, those consumers would have found what works for them and thus become loyal buyers. That would have been a much more sustainable tactic.
Thanks for great content & good luck!
Yayyyyy for liberation!!! We adore and appreciate you greatly. And your skin DOES look INCREDIBLE.
finally i found this channel. your confidence really inspire me and i really agree that we have to do our own research before decide to buy products and don't let marketing fools u
I just finished my skincare routine and I'm winding down for the evening. May I just say how relaxed I feel after watching this??
I can relate to every one tip! especially when u said not to cleanse face daily! Thank you, really!!
Cassandra, what are your thoughts on what Susan Yara has done (promoting Naturium products for the last few months & her announcing today that shes the owner)?
I really hate how youtube is now putting the ads in the middle of the video now, I don't know if it's only for me though... but is really annoying to miss the train of thought of such good videos!!!
@Cassandra can you please suggest face mask, I have terrible acne. Thanks.
I’ve struggled with acne, my dermatologist even cured me, but then it came again after 2 years.
Suddenly, it stopped about 3 weeks ago. I was shocked. Even my post acne are almost invisible now (though usually it took about 6 months to heal), I can go outside without any makeup. I’ve thought about changes in my life, and this is what I discovered:
1. I took 2 Maine coon cats - it was my dream))) SO, I stopped being nervous. (Maybe this is important: I’m being treated for depression). So cats really help me to cope with my condition.
2. Last weeks I was all about cats, so I stopped washing my face every day. And my skin is MUCH better now! I love it’s healthy color, humidity level, even skin elasticity is a way better now! Now I wash my face once in a 3 days.
I guess these things help me the most. But also I did these things even be fore:
Eat healthy food. If it’s hard for you, take this advice: don’t change your diet dramatically, but do add vegetables and greens. It really helps a lot.
I stopped eating dairy products.
I sleep enough every day.
Unfortunately, I don’t train regularly so far, but I do this from time to time to keep fit. Also when I’m very lazy to do sports, I dance. This is fun, it makes my mood and helps my body.
Good luck to all of us!!!🤜🏻🤛🏻❤️
I’ve been following you since the floral couch on the floor video days so it’s so nice to see how much happier you are with your skin (and in general) now 💕
Video recommendation: Inkey list review.
Sorta how you do with the ordinary. It's a good brand and budget friendly only being a few more dollars than the ordinary.
Getting rid of essential oil-containing lotions was the breakthrough for me last fall. 😂
I'm trying to build a sunscreen habit/ I have severely damaged my skin over the past few years. I am only 23 and have very deep under eye wrinkles and crows feet. Because of my medium skin completion with very yellow undertones, sunscreens are quite tricky for me. The ones that work are quite expensive. I'm trying to use cheap ones with a white cast when going out top exercise and using the more expensive Korean ones when going to work.
You have made such a difference in my skin condition. I cured my post acne hyperpigmentation thanks to you! Especially loved your vids with The Ordinary. Also-i wish you'd wear your hair natural more often, your curls are so gorgeous!!
How did you did this ..please help me
@@aartiniranjan1533 i used the ordinary's retinol, glycolic acid toner and aha&bha chemical peel. Used these for over a year and it definitely helped me keep control of my acne and fade scars way faster. I also use their niacinamide and i love it.
Thnkuu
Hi Cassie!! Waiting for The Inkey List review video. I was hoping to purchase some Inkey List products and I value your judgement .Drop it whenever you are ready please. Thanks.Take care

Amazing transformation Cassandra. I miss being an esthetician at a medi-spa. I keep my license active though.
Hi Cassandra! I also have fallen in love with masks. Lately my love has taken a backseat- I used to do them once-twice a week before bed or in the morning before a shower but I have not prioritized them. Can you do a video of the different masks you like to use or approve of the formularies? I have not seen any videos about facial masks besides the ordinary's bha mask.
Please write a book about "Turn and Learn your skin care ingredients", your inputs is very educational and i love learning your tips. 🙏❤
My acne went away and now it’s slowly coming back .. I’m going to try some of these for myself ..
I love your videos ! Do you have a video with your recent skin care routine?
I actually never used make up wipes, I always used micellaire water and cotton pads 🥰
Hyperpigmented skin in neck underarms, thighs.. Pls make a video on this
I'm so happy I found your channel!
Your videos are so informative and useful - you spend a lot of time on these.
I also have cystic acne - your videos give me hope to manage it!
I really love your message of intentionality especially in regards to cruelty free beauty products and why/how you’re using any product. Thanks for your beautiful presence in the skincare world! I’m so happy turning and learning.
Could you do a video that helps get rid of dark spots?
if I may a comment, you look incredibly here! So glowing and irradiant! Love the make up!
Right?! Even when she zoomed in her skin looked amazing!!
Do you have/could you potentially make a video on modelling with acne? I'm about to begin modelling and have some shoots booked, but I'm just concerned how my acne may affect the shoots. Eg. Should you tell the team before hand? Should you do your own makeup? Will the make-up artist need more time? Etc etc. That would be a hugeeee help! Thank you 😘💜xx
You truly are one of the best human beings out there !!!
I just found your channel. Your content is amazing and I love your personality & the way u present. Your super entertaining, yet very informative. Thank u so much!
i've been following you for the past decade. you are such an inspiration, your evolution is truly inspiring - from going vegan, to all natural holistic products - the planet need more of this.
you're such a wonderful human. thank you for being so educational and humble❤
I just feel so much happiness and joy whenever i see you uploaded again
Im not sure if silicones in clinique are good kinda confused not sure. Im not sure if ive been trapping junk in my skin and its not renewing itself with it. They’re saying that silicone filled stuff actually dries it out and does a temporary seal. Idk they seem
Pretty friendly to me but im overly oily later on. Im getting mixed research. If you can make a video about that. I have no idea; otherwise what to use that’s for sensitive skin, with oily combination skin for day. I do see that i get red rashing from alot of products. My skin has been pretty clear otherwise using clinique i think. I started vichy liftactive night cream to skin cell renew my skin vs using harsh retinoids. Could be that not sure.? Been trying stupid primers. To keep the junk out of my pores but i cant use any salicylic acid atm due to pregnancy which of course was the best by NYX the spray and use it as a setting spray.
Cassandra could you please make a video about hormonal acne and its treatments? Also i think it would be very helpful for many of us to make a video and discuss about pills like spironolactone, birth control etc. I personally need your orinion on this topic!
Hi Cassandra; First of all I have to say I LOVE YOUR VIBE & ENERGY !!! Thank you for all your videos I have seen so far. So informative & honest. I also appreciate that you include the info whether a product is animal friendly (Very valuable information for me!!!!). BIG THANKS I have got few questions; the first one is: Do I have to use sun protection cream if I live in UK? (not much Sun here). I do not like using/buying things which are not necessary. 2nd question is : What do you think about DIY cosmetic products? - I am really trying to buy as little plastic containers as possible. Looking forward to your opinions. All the Best. Ewa
Any sunscreen recommendations that wont lead to fungal acne? :((
Elta MD sunscreen. Its for acne prone skin and won’t clog your pores.
I don't use sun screen 🙈 and this video made me realize that i need it.. Which would you recommend? Or what ingredients are best?
I have bad body acne, chest acne and also face acne 😭 it’s terrible 😔
best skincare habit is sunscreen! 🔆🧴
You should do an in-depth review of La-Roche Posay products next!!!
Thanks for sharing Cassandra and congrats on reaching 1m subs, you so deserve it !
Would love to hear your thoughts regarding Susan Yara committing fraud as per FTC guidelines.
Glad this community didnt see that much drama, there was no need for it.
Your skin looks great Cassandra!
Thank you thank you thank you for creating useful content Cassandra!!!
You are so fun! I love Dr. Dray too.☺
Would be good if you could suggest the brand you used...
Hi Cassandra! Thank you so much for another super informative video it so clear that if you put a lot of time in creating your content!! I've started washing my face with water only in the morning and I started using SPF everyday too!
I was wondering if you will address the Susan Yara/Naturium situation?
Thanks
I love your science based knowledge Cas, thank you for sharing 💕
Powerful stuff I’ve gotten so much out of your sharing these actions/habits. Inspirational. Merci
I have the same situation like you 😭✌❤ and thank god! The tips helped me! Thanks for the tips!
Great video! So glad I found your channel, everything you say I agree with, especially going cruelty free. I’m now committed, as I also love animals so much and don’t want to be a hypocrite.
Your skin looks amazing btw, so healthy and radiant!
No makeup damnnnn her skin looks so good 😍
You are very inspiring Cassandra! thank you & have a blessed day! 🙂👍💖
If your skin isnt oily. Coconut oil works as makeup remover.
No, don't use coconut oil on your skin blockes the pores and causes breakouts
This actually helped me. Thank you, Cassandra
Hi Cassandra, your second point about sunscreen is evidently important. I'm wondering whether you can use sun-protecting agents in combination with daily moisturiser? For example using a moisturiser that has SPF 50+ in it as opposed to a seperate moisturiser and sunscreen? I love your videos thank you for educating us !! x
Is there a way to help with milia around the eye area? Is there a way to make it grow less..?
Keep up the good work. Doing Gods work with every post. Thank you 🙏🏼
Omg I really love her. She's really inspiring me to have the same goal even in lifestyle and the products we use morally... I'm still not acne free but my skin has gone lot better.. And I'm kinda having hard time when it comes to my period cause jts when they start to come out and makes the progress slow... But it has gotten better than before, I really take everything I watch in this channel like the turn and learn method I can't forget it! and I feel glad cause it almost feels like I've been consulting dermatologist 😊 so informative and educational too. 🌻🦋
