    I like your unique perspective on skincare products, you see things from the chemical and formulation side and I think that is fascinating. You review all kinds of brands which I find interesting, even though I will never be able to afford La Mer I can appreciate it. The active ingredients are important, but most of us want products that our skin can tolerate and that have a certain level of cosmetic elegance, and that means appreciating at the less active and inactive ingredients. Thank you

    Just moved to South Korea and have seen that Torriden at my local Olive young. Gonna pick it up! The Medikate smelled like baby powder to me! Nope! My favorite serum discovery this year was the Wishtrend barrier centella creamy one. Sooooo soothing and delightful ❤

    I’ve been using the Murad sulfur mask in every rendition/ formulation. It simply makes huge zits disappear (or at least o few like it helps the inflammation al a lot)

    I agree that the Medik8 smells too strong! It’s also so expensive, especially as you move up in strength. I’m using the Geek & Gorgeous one instead, and I like it so far!

    Thanks for an interesting and thoughtful video! It's great to hear your perspective as a scientist, especially when you explained the different kinds of zinc oxide. That's the level of detail I just wouldn't get anywhere else. Your channel is just going to blow up, I know it ❤ by the way, I'm grateful you were careful to explain all your connections to some of the brands. Love the transparency

      Promptly shipped in U.S (where it is made). Dispenses well. Refiills are handy and cut cost and waste. Medium thick consistency that spreads beautifully and leaves my skin hydrated. My combo/oily skin daughter loves it as well. Truly one of the few products that has a noticeable effect. The only non-Asian item in my routine.

    Hi Ramón! The Clearing Clay from Soft Services is no longer available. The product IS being reformulated as per an email from the brand sent to customers at the end of summer. However, there is no estimated timeframe of re-release.

    I have loved your content for years, so thank you. If copper peptides are 700 Da do they absorb? I heard only under 700 ( and less than 5 amino acids) absorbs? What about the other peptides in that Glow Recipe product as far as absorption? I figured you'd be the guy to ask!

    tranexamic acid is a tyrosinase inhibitor good for dealing with discoloration. it's sometimes prescribed by derms in oral form for this purpose. wondering why you seemed to be suspicious of it as an ingredient?

    •  Před 6 měsíci

      Topical vs oral use

    •  Před 6 měsíci

      @CassieAfricanQueen because the evidence for tranexamic acid topically isn’t there. Orally? Yes. For topical usage, the key evidence for its benefits always pair it with more studied and effective ingredients for pigmentation, like niacinamide

      Oh I’m well aware. I’m not saying to buy it. I’m just saying why I liked it. You have free agency to do as you please. As do I. Hence why it’s in my video. That I made. About products I particularly enjoyed or found interesting. On my channel.

      La Mer is an exclusive brand. Their product pricing and marketing gear towards a dedicated group of consumers. If that doesn’t fit you, that’s ok! He talked about many other products with different price points. You don’t have to make people feel bad about a product that they personally love
      At the end it’s just lotions and creams. It’s not that deep 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

    Well the moment you praised la mer.. i knew i couldn't trust your content..
    There's nothimg good about that hyped up product..
    La mer = Nivea+algea extract..
    La mer shouldn't be recommended (to anyone) in the first place..
    There's no merit to it..
    How do you get good results-
    Red light therapy
    Laser treatments (expensive but totally worth it)
    Microneedling (skin of colour should take extra care)
    Acid peels
    Retinoid
    Thick moisturiser (even basic would work..la mer is basic..)
    (Heck even cera ve would do better tham la mer.. i don't support cera be as it's not CRUELTY FREE..but it's atleast genuine..)

    •  Před 7 měsíci +3

      Did you listen to anything I actually said in the video? I’m not telling you to buy it, I’m just mentioning products I got to try this year that I found interesting or liked. I’m a chemist, I’m looking at things from a product development and formulation perspective, and I’m also a consumer, so I’m looking at what’s out there and what people talk about. I mentioned how their serum was an interesting product and something I hadn’t really seen before. Where can you not trust me?
