    Hey, Cassie...the first sunscreen was invented by an AUSTRALIAN (not an Austrian...) way back in the early 1930s.
    I’m an Aussie and we’ve been pretty obsessive about the sun’s rays since the early 1980s, having he highest rate of skin cancer in the world (Anglo-Celtic skin plus huge rays - my human biology teacher always said we don’t biologically belong here, unlike our indigenous people).
    To this day our TGA (Therapy Goods Administration - like your FDA) makes brands jump through so many hoops when they want approval to sell sunscreen here so many give up, and we can’t buy a lot of the sunscreens you have because of this.
    Australians always laugh when we’re called Austrians, by the way.💋

She told him there was something growing inside her belly and that she suffered from frequent nausea; my uncle visited her, thought it was a huge tumor and send her for a further check up. Comes back with the results; she's pregnant. She says it's impossible, because she neveeer had sex and asked my uncle if it's possible she got pregnant from a toilet seat in a public restroom. My uncle said to her "Sure...but only if between you and that toilet seat there was a penis". Had her baby 5-6 months later.

    Clinique made me break out so bad in my early 20's that I'm still traumatized. The lady at the store INSISTED I had oily skin and I totally believed her because those were the dark ages before skinfluencers. What I have is dry, sensitive skin, but my face begins to sweat as soon as I walk into a store in the winter. She saw sweaty and thought oily. That stuff stripped my skin and gave me the worst cystic acne of my life. I was given a Clinique product for my bday last year and almost cried. 😂

    At least clinique reformulated the toner to remove acetone. When I was younger, in the 80s and 90s, and used clinique it would gum up my nail polish if I let it sit on my nails too long while wiping my face with a cotton ball.

      Hold up, it had _acetone_ in it? In a facial toner? Oh my god. I remember back in the late 90s, when I became an acne-riddled teenager, my mother always tried to get me to go to the mall and get a "Clinique makeover" -- have a lady in the perfume section do my makeup and use their products because it was "clinical" and "good for sensitive skin."

      I have depression too, and it helps to remember that like she says, all you really need are cleanser, moisturiser and sunscreen. If you don’t have oily skin, you don’t need to cleanse in the morning, if you leave the house just sunscreen is enough, and if you don’t go outside you don’t need anything in the morning. At night a cleanser and moisturiser is enough, though sometimes I skip that too if I didn’t leave the house so I don’t have any sunscreen, makeup or pollutants on my skin lmao
      Then if you can, adding one treatment step in between the cleanser and moisturiser is plenty, just targeted at what your skin needs. If your skin is fine, you don’t even need that, but if you're trying to treat something, that’s when consistency is important. I can get away with a day of not leaving the house and not touching my skin, but if you have acne or something, it might be harder.

    I’ve used the Thirst Trap Juice. It’s really nice, I don’t know if it’s a MUST HAVE but it’s good! Now I’m using the Honey Whip and so far, I’m IN LOVE WITH IT. I have combination skin (also acne prone even tho I dealt with hardcore acne when I was younger and that left some scarring) and this one is sooooo light and it really makes you feel moisturized for a long time. The fragrance is barely there, so I don’t think it’s a huge problem. I’ll try that rose oil next! Thank you for your review, as always ❀

      I have acne scarring as well, and a few scars from life(lol....) and starting last Winter I began trying to fix it as much as I could. Now if you are a vegan idk if this would be cool for you but Farmacy Honey Potion, and their Honeymoon Glow actually worked for me. Had to wait some weeks to start noticing a bigger difference but each time I used it my skin looked better the next day.
      It says to put a thick amount of the honey potion on for only 15 minutes- I put a thin layer over my other moisturizer/peptide/retinoid whatever cream I was using, or put it over a thin layer of the Honeymoon Glow after letting that absorb for a good 5 minutes and slept in it. Know that is not the direction but it works- it works for me SO WELL and is not bad for my skin which is kinda sensitive.
      I started out using it only twice a week, and might go 3x a week but not usually so don't get too dry.
      Another thing that helped me out(saw visible results) a company Timeless- got CoQ10, Matrixl, and straight Hylauranic(spelling bad sorry) Acid, OH and B5 serum for acne breakouts and hydration.
      The CoQ10 I use only a couple times a week, and the others I will use daily depending on my skin's need.
      Apologies for the long ramble- get excited about it. OH, Trader Joe's has a serum with Retinoids and Vitamin D3 which are amazing on my skin and is cheap.
      Hope something helped. Honey and Aloe I used for years before from my Aloe plant and local honey I would use as a night cream sorta thing and it does work. My skin would look perfect if I kept it up and did not pick at my zits😔 never touch the acne
      There is this Green Clean stuff Farmacy has that is amazing too and a BHA toner....idk maybe I just love them but their products are amazing- they have sales often so wait for a sale, and they give you good free samples of their products when you spend enough which is easy.
      Timeless serums are good for making your own masks too, you can buy a bunch of dry face masks from Korea on Yes Style or elsewhere and it works well- and you don't waste as much

      Same for me too, I used it for about a year with great results then stopped due to hyram saying how bad it was. Tried loads of other things other things and have continued to try but nothing works like this. Last week I decided to start again with it but on use on and around spots and already seen a difference. Sometimes what works/doesn't work for 1 works for another. The rest of my routine is really good and hydration based so I honestly think that bit of a 'bad' product won't do me any harm.

No matter the brand or product. Don’t let these skincare snobs/skinfluencers make you feel stupid for using something that works for you. As long as you know that’s the product working for you. :)

It felt hydrating, soothing, and lightweight and it smelled really pleasant. It really did make me feel like I was at the spa.
    I got the small travel size to try it first, because I've learned from past experiences that new creams can break me out and this one didn't. I applied makeup over it and it worked great, I couldn't see any dry patches that made me self-contious. I haven't had the chance to repurchase it but I did really enjoy it.

Before long I realize I've got to start again at square 1 and I never get to see any of the amazing, trully effective, LONG-TERM results that so many people I see online and in my own life get to experience because i have such a hard time maintaining a consistent routine.

      Thank you for putting into words what I was thinking! LOL I used to really like Hyram then he started going really over the top exaggerating his reactions.....then he started putting filters on his videos. And then of course I realized that he was continually going against his own recommendations when it came to getting sponsorships (glow recipe comes to mind) and I was just done. I get that people basically just watch him for his quirky, fun personality but he's begun to have a huge influence on what people buy (for 8-12 months there was almost no CeraVe left on shelves around me because he recommends them as a fragrance free brand) and I think that's pretty dangerous considering he has absolutely no training in anything related to skincare he was just a Youth To The People salesman before his youtube blew up.
      And as a borderline GenX/Millenial who definitely used the 3 step Clinique as a teenager I also bristle a little when people tell me that brand is the epitome of an old lady skincare brand. Most of their products don't work for me (their Vit C and Retinol boosters are the bomb though) but they obviously work for a lot of people or they wouldn't still be in business!

      @@Halfmoonbae I agree - Clinique is pretty boring. I haven’t used their stuff in years. And continued animal testing is not okay. I’m 45, and I used it in college. It was my only option for non-drugstore makeup in the small city I grew up in. Clinique and Lancîme - and Lancîme seemed to sophisticated for a badly dressed college student like me!

      Literally that, I used to like Hiram in the beginning but he got soo judgy it became off-putting, especially when he has no formal education in skincare. The way people worship him is weird, especially Cassandra, who actually has the relevant education. As for the Clinique, this toner also cleared up my acne, if it works for your skin, it works, recommendations for something new are always appreciated but this Clinique tantrum was so unnecessary and judgy.

    Microneedling at home is not a problem if you have educated yourself a bit on the matter on how to do it properly, probably one of the most important things is getting a quality dermaroller with medical grade needles, been doing it for over a year to treat my scars with excellent results.

    I live in Iceland, everything in Iceland is expensive. Even for the same products sold in Europe we have to pay at least 30% more here. And everything Icelandic is even more expensive. I don’t know how and why but it just is. Like, imported broccoli is much cheaper than the ones that are grown here lmao. I have been using Bio Effect products for over a year now, the essence, serum and cream, and I swear my skin is much better. More hydrated, supple and tight.

    I use a .25mm dermaroller from kitsch every week. Sterilising the roller with rubbing alcohol and wiping my face with a cotton pad + rubbing alcohol. Then hyaluronic acid serum then roll properly horizontally, vertically and diagonally. Avoiding makeup for at least 48 hours. My skin never looked better đŸ„° it’s safe to use dermaroller at home if you know what you’re doing. Please don’t discourage people to learn and have the benefits they can get from it. We don’t have to pay much $ to get the benefits of micro needling

    Oh, and while I'm here, there's a thingy I've heard: your skin (and scalp) can't actually manually adjust its oil production, and that your skin can't really go into "overdrive" when you wash it more often or with more stripping ingredients. There's a study that explored it that came out with results that conflict with the common rhetoric that just about every skintellectual of all different qualifications believe in. Would be super interesting to hear your take!

    • @Acidfunkish
      @Acidfunkish Pƙed 2 lety +3

      It's not a lot, but anecdotally, I have definitely been able to change my oil production.
      My hair, especially. I would get oily within a day or washing, and within 2 days, I'd get that kind of uncomfortable feeling when your greasy hair sits one way, and you try to brush it out of that pattern, iykwim? I went straight from washing it daily to leaving it for a week straight, and it was so gross, at first... I had to wear a hat or something for a couple months. I'd recommend trying to do it more slowly, if you try it.
      But, now, I can easily last 2 weeks, if I have to. It doesn't get "greasy," anymore. I even add some oils onto my scalp and hair, and it still doesn't get greasy.
      I don't think my hormones or skin type could have changed that much over the 3 months of transition. The only thing that changed was I stopped using shampoo so frequently.
      A similar thing happened when I changed my face washing routine, to include an oil cleanse / double cleanse (and only using micellar water in the morning), but with a less drastic change.
      I know we shouldn't assume why things happen with our skin, but it... Kinda makes sense, doesn't it? If you're constantly stripping your skin, it's gotta protect itself somehow. We're such a resilient species, to be able to survive in almost every climate on our planet. There must be reasons for that, because most animals don't do nearly as well in a drastic change of environment. But we can.

    • @eduardaarrais
      @eduardaarrais Pƙed 2 lety +2

      I'm going to answer you while you wait for Cassandra 😂 the myth is both true and false.
      If you are washing your face/hair with too harsh ingredients or too often without needing to, you will most definitely get a skin reaction. But it doesn't necessarily mean your skin will produce more oils, your skin can become more dry, dehydrated, flakey, get a rash, a break out, etc. What happens and how your skin reacts to being over stripped depends on the person, their skin type, condition, climate, age, etc.
      Can not washing so frequently or with more gentle ingredients make your skin/hair less oily? Yes, but also no. If your skin/hair is currently producing more oil due to being over stripped, not stripping it will certainly stop that excess oily production. But it won't stop your oil production as a whole, and it can't make your skin go from oily to normal.
      The difference is between type to condition. You can fix your skin conditions, but you can't change your skin type, no matter what you do. Your skin type is determined by your DNA, and while it can change through your life (due to climate, age, hormones, etc), your products or washing routine will have no impact on it. All your products can do for your skin type is help you manage your symptoms.

    Watching your videos have made me so much happier about my incredibly pickiness about my skin routine. I have primary immunodeficiency. I’m allergic to a lot of things. There are a lot of skin products that I have an immediate reaction to, like vitamin C. My face will swell so fast I’ll only notice because I can’t see through my swollen shut eyes. I use YonKa cleansing milk, Paula’s Choice BHA exfoliant, and Paula’s Choice Calm mineral spf moisturizer. 2 to 3 times a week, I’ll throw on Perricone MD cold plasma eye and face after the BHA. I’m very lucky that I genetically have amazing skin (Chinese grandma). I’m 45 but get mistaken for someone in their late 20’s, early 30’s.
    It makes my day to hear someone aggressively denounce some of these treatments that people think it’s okay to do at home. My friend is a 2nd generation esthetician and flipped her lid when I told her I got a derma roller. With my health history, she said exactly what you did about staph!!! Only my immune system doesn’t work, and the staph infection would become systemic. I.e
.no one want that!! Thank you Cassandra!!!

    Fun Fact: I just found out that in the 18th Century, they used to put Zinc Oxide in their moistures, mostly for hiding signs of Small-Pox (probably scars from when they recovered from them) But also to keep the skin from being irritated. It wasn't White Lead in their make up (They didn't actually do clown make up like looks as that was proven False) but the Zinc Oxide in their skin care products. I found out through Abby Cox on CZcams as she also sites her sources so you can look up what she's talking about as she mostly does Historical fashion and it's History. I figured you would like her video "I Followed an 18th-Century Moisturizer & Sunscreen Recipe & it kinda worked??" (The actual title of the video if you want to look it up), even if you don't react to it yourself it would be fun to see what you thought on it.

    I would love to hear your thoughts on wishful skin care products. I love your reaction videos. I was thinking the same thing about hot water! I’ve been getting pimples and sometimes white heads around my hairline on my forehead for about the last 9 months but no where else. I have been very lucky to never have suffered from acne, just the occasional pimple here and there and my skin is normal (a little dry) but not to bad. What would you recommend to stop this or do you know what it could be from? I barely wear makeup and haven’t introduced any new products. I’ve been using a benzoyl peroxide cream and it’s been helping but they always come back.
