I'm definitely taking a "less is more" approach to my skincare routine in 2023. Over the past year I've tried a lot of new products and I'm ready to simplify everything.
Me too girl, same thing with my makeup. I do need to change my makeup game up a little bit. Need a more moisturizing primer because I have very dry skin, definitely need a new eyeshadow palette because I'm very very tired of different shades and Shimmers of brown, I'm in love with my blush right now ( it's the pixie brand cream blush in a stick thingy and it has staying power, the color is perfect for me, and it gives you a nice dewy look without any Shimmer!), and definitely need new lip liner, lipstick and gloss. Lip products are my favorite and I am in desperate need of some neutral colors. I love the Nars chunky lip color because you can use it alone or as a base to put gloss on top of and that's one of my favorite looks.
Same here brooo
Completely agree with this. I bought a ridiculous amount of skin care in 2022. I opened them all and used so many willy nilly that it is hard for me to know which products were best. I am speeding the ho hum serums by using copious amounts on my neck and hands.
@@sheryl4662 Glad I'm not alone in this. Trying to use up all those "whatever" products on my neck. You should see the cleanser graveyard under my bathroom sink, only to find that Cerave Cream-to-Foam was the ticket ...
@@jsully8076you should try the Bobbi brown vitamin enriched face base though I would say to just buy the mini first and a little goes a long way. The mini should last a few months.
When it comes to non-dermatologist skincare experts, Caroline Hirons is the GOAT.
I love the idea of Experiment’s reusable sheet mask, but I wish they’d come out with more colors, especially lavender.
The color of the Experiment mask is the only reason I haven’t bought it. The green is so bright! I would settle for like a sage green, but I don’t want bright colors when I’m trying to relax with a mask on my face.
Thank you so much James. Thrilled you're enjoying it. And thank you thank you for all of your help with the app. ❤
Congrats on your products’ launch, Mrs. H! 🎉
My absolute pleasure 🥹💜
@@JeziKrislarenmenou Thank you so much ♥️
$85 for a gel cream moisturiser, no thanks unless I receive PR 🤣
Right... like ELF is right there... at the beginning of the video.
Thats nice but cheap skincare isn't as good. Ive tried it all at different price points. Some items are fine to be inexpensive but id never cheap out on moisturizer personally.
YESSS - I'm Not stupid! We are same : Brothers or Sisters 😄!
I stay with my wonderful super Moisturizer from a German Company..it's Name is
M.ASAM...a great Company and with affordable Products! And most are natural...But with good Science and Labs!
p.s.: and I swear of my Products from Korea !
@@jleighwolfe u haven’t tried enough Korean and Japanese skincare if u think cheap products aren’t as good. Lots of times they are better
@@BirgitBauhaus what does natural mean to you?
I've been using e.l.f. makeup since I was in middle school (I'm not doing the math but that was a while ago lol). It's really nice to see them growing and evolving and continuing to release good products that are affordable and accessible.
😅
Good Molecules! I love this brand, they're super affordable and the products are actually really nice, but they don't seem to get talked about much. I personally love their hyaluronic acid boosting essence (it hydrates my skin in a way no other hyaluronic acid based product ever seems to) and niacinamide brightening toner, and I also really like their overnight exfoliating serum, and yerba mate eye gel.
I also love Good Molecules. I really love their Pineapple Exfoliating Powder, and their Glycolic Acid Galactomyces toner. I use them every single day, and they have greatly reduced my hyperpigmentation on my cheeks! I want to try their hyaluronic acid serum one of these days. I didn’t care for the eye cream…it made my eyes water super bad. Does it do that to your eyes too?
Their sunscreen is really good too!
I agree, I love their brightening serum
@@EnvyBlu I haven't had issues with the eye cream, but I'm careful to keep it just in my undereye area so it doesn't get into my eyes at all on accident.
I've used their hyaluronic acid serum, personally, I've actually had better luck with the hyaluronic acid boosting essence. The serum is kinda sticky, very similar to the one from The Ordinary. I've seen way better results from the boosting essence than I ever did from the serum. Only thing I use the hyaluronic acid serum for anymore is as a base to mix the vitamin C powder into.
La Roche Posay has never let me down. I've used their acne cream, their moisturizers, they're cleansers, very happy with all of the results from virtually every one of their products I've ever tried with one exception. The Double Wear or double repair moisturizer. It sucks, not that moisturizing and it broke me out. Had a really weird tacky feel to it as well.
the e.l.f. holy hydration cleanser is so so good. it’s my favorite. I’m on my third or fourth bottle. cleanses so well without being stripping at all. i swear if my nose feels congested and i can feel the blackheads i just do a thorough cleanse with that and it all goes away. i can’t say enough good things about it!!!
If e.l.f would do the Holy Hydration cleansing balm in fragrance free, I would try it. Their fragrance free offerings are still spotty.
Btw that sweater color is great on you!
On the Elf website they claim HH is fragrance free!?
It is fragrance free. I have fragrance allergies so I'm hypersensitive to smell. It smells like nothing.
Elf skincare and pyunkang yul saved my skin!!! I (wrongfully) “dermaplaned” at home 🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️ I’m mixed and have curly hair and my skin freaked out!
These two brands reset my skin and have helped heal it! So glad to hear they are actuallly good!
Elf is one of my favorites. Great hydration, good price, and they offer small travel sizes to try out.
Yesss the ELF pure skin cleanser is LOVED by my dry skin🫶🏽
I really appreciate how honest are your reviews 🙌🏻🙏🏻
I'm happy for elf, since it's so affordable and no BS. young adults can easily afford this, and I wouldn't have any problem gifting this to almost anyone new to skincare. I use their moisturizer on a daily basis, and it's absolutely wonderful.
I love the idea behind the ELF and Ameon skin products, totally on board with mixing skin science and natural skin care. I'd actually love to try some of their products, but unfortunately they contain hyaluronic acid and my skin and hyaluronic acid are like two very unmix-y things (think burning, itching, redness, welts, it's not a good look). Both of these companies products do look really good though. Thanks for bringing products like this to people's attention, I feel like these sorts of products are the perfect middle path between going full on 'natural skincare' and not wanting to use products with a lot of potentially problematic ingredients.
Byoma was a great range of product without hyaluronic acid
@@carinebelle4356 really? I'm pretty sure it does contain it 🤔
OMG you are the only other person I've ever seen other than me that's allergic to hyaluronic acid! I thought I was going crazy when it 1st happened! My eyelids looked like puffy red raw meat. My eyes swelled shut for a while 24hours!😵💫😳 It took 2 more x until I figured out what it was.🤔 I'm not allergic to anything else in the whole world 😏
Btw it's just my eyelids too weird
@@cherylmaden5989 honestly same. I have really flakey super dehydrated skin with cystic acne - hyaluronic acid is in everything hydrating and it hurtsss
This year I rediscovered Purito I tried again their Recovery Cream and it made my skin so silky smooth. Then I was curious and tried the oat gel cream and the cica barrier sleeping mask
Interested in the Smooth gel Moisturizer. I love gel Moisturizers... loving the ingredients list too.
I have "mature" skin 🙄. I use ELF Holy Hydration and have been really happy with it. I also love Bio Oil. Soaks in without greasy feel. Living in USA Desert Southwest, I run for anything hydrating.
The Holy Hydration face cream was one of the few products that I've ever re-purchased multiple times when I was trying to fix my skin. SUPER helpful.
Love Caroline & can’t WAIT to try her products 💜
ELF's holy hydration line is one of my favorite drug store lines. they're packing almost makes me forget I'm buying drugstore!
I also love the holy hydration line. My skin tends to be very sensitive but does amazingly well with these
What about holy hydration daily cleanser??
I love that I'm using e.l.f. Holy Hydration Make up Melting Cleansing Balm as a part of my double cleanse, as you're speaking of it!
i’m obsessed with the elf happy hydration moisturiser (not holy hydration) - if you want a thicker moisturiser that still just sinks in and feels so lightweight but deeply moisturises and nourishes your skin (i have oily skin saying this!) and leaves you so soft, this is the one!!
Great video James, informative and entertaining ❤️
I've tried some elf skincare products too, and I love the holy hydration sleeping mask! It's only 10 dollars, and having dry skin, it's super great at night!! I use it every night!
I just purchased two elf skin care items and I really like both of them so far. The gel moisturizer and the oat milk toner.
The Elf Cleansing Balm is 🤌🏻 chefs kiss. Love it so much!
omg this is perfect timing!
Recently fell in love (at first use!) with Glossiers Priming Rich moisturizer i was SHOOK
I’ve been waiting for you to talk about inn beauty forever! Definitely my favorite brand now 🙌
HAPPY HOLIDAYS JAMES!!!❄️❄️❄️🎄🎄🎄
I’m curious if you can review ‘ITK’, it’s a skincare brand by twins Brooklyn and Bailey who are CZcamsrs! The packaging is so pretty and they seem to have a large amount of products, and based off of their stories, they are coming out with more products
Honestly I would stay away from ANY skincare that is created by an influencer, celebrity, etc. I'm not saying the products can't be good or effective, but it's better to listen to the skincare reccomendations from an esthetician, dermatologist, or chemist.
I bought Paula's Choice pore reducing toner yesterday for the first time and immediately tried it that night, and I must say I do already see a visible change. My pores are less clogged with sebum which is especially noticeable on my chest and shoulders where I also break out. I have dry and dehydrated skin so I love super hydrating toners and essences, so the pore reducing toner doesn't do it for in that area (it is meant for oily combination skin after all 😂), but so far it's doing a pretty good job at the pore reducing/sebum reducing part. I think I'll prefer it for my body than my face though. According to Dr V, the niacinamide in the toner is probably about 3% and now I am so interested in finally trying the ordinary's niacinamide serum which I have yet to try.
I don't know if I'm super late to the party, but I'm noticing more and more Korean brands coming out with retinol products. Cosrx and the retinol oil, Innisfree and the retinol cica repair ampoule, etc etc. I've been using the Cosrx retinol oil and I positively adore it lol
I've been really enjoying Naturium's Vitamin C Super Serum Plus. Hoping to try their cleansers and moisturizers this year.
I am hoping to simplify my routine a bit in 2023. The SKKN by Kim review you did with Ola mentioned Vichy which reminded me how much I loved Mineral 89. I stopped using it only because my attention went elsewhere... like Glow Recipe, Cosrx, and Fenty Skin. I plan to return to some of my tried and trues in the new year. Oh, and I also hope to introduce some red LED light therapy. 🤞
I’m loving the Major Fade by PillowtalkDerm ❤
I wish that elf would make a larger size of makeup remover balm. I don’t know how they don’t!!😅
I have pretty sensitive skin around my eyes and the elf holy hydration eyecream didn't irritate or anything which is amazing since that usually happens to me with so many eyecreams
OMG I literally just bought the 1st elf product! I knew it was right for me just knew it! Lol thank u for talking about it! ( I'm allergic to hyaluronic acid so I have to be really careful. Love niacinamide though!)
I'm surprised you didn't mention how expensive Caroline's products are.
Foreo. Espada blemish solution-wow. so good.
I would love to try Experiment's Super Saturated, will it be available in the UK any time soon? Also, I am the only one that is mildly shocked that Caroline Hirons launched a skincare line and her first product wasn't a mist? Lol maybe it's just me, I think of her as the mist queen
Happy Wednesday, James! 💓🎄💜💓🎄💜
I think I want to try the holy diamond cream and the experiments serum. It's only 25 dollars and looks nice. Thank you for the recommendations, appreciate ya!
it's james' nails being on point every video for me
I really want to try INN Beauty, fingers crossed they get a UK stockist soon
💞💞 Hello James 💞💞 Happy Wednesday 💞💞
I know a segment of the video is sponsored by elf, but I have to agree. I’ve experienced a lot more hits than misses and the quality has always been exceptional especially for the price point.
Body shop do a eldelweiss essence used to be called drops of youth. It's lovely
I just bought sample sizes of ELF holy hydration the blue one and purple one and a hydration moisturiser.. I was wondering if you could review Boots line of skincare ..I got really good cheap glycolic acid.. and a moisturiser for £1.50 which I liked..
If you haven't tried Geek and gorgeous retinal yet, I highly recommend it. As a fellow rosacea sufferer, it has worked really well for me and I currently use the highest one three to four times a week with no irritation.
Luve the way you did the sponsorship, have you always done it this way
Freak here. Love Caroline and also the skin rocks app!
My friend who nevvvver wears any skincare (not even sunscreen when outside for hours!!) absolutely loved the holy hydration spf moisturizer when I gave it to her.
Not for me, but I need a looot of hydration
I love E.L.F.!
Is it ok that I don’t use skincare everyday? My skin is not particularly pretty, it’s sometimes dull looking but I get into spats of getting really obsessed with skincare for many weeks, then going back into my stages of not caring. I also smoke cannabis and tobacco so I am aware that that will be bad for my skin, what should I do??
i would love to see you review a german bran called no cosmetics, its very affordable and their message is also one of inclusion. though i dont know how easy it would be for you to get your hands on it 😅the products i use also have english text on them so there is hope
I love elf skin care and my skin really loves it as well which is amazing!!
Yes! I’ve been using ELF skincare products for a little while now and love the results! My skin is soft and hydrated and it helps control my oily areas without drying and tightening.
Try Vivant skin cares Retinols, the only ones I can use!
My partner has tried 2 elf skin care products, but he didn't like either of them, so I kinda pushed them out of my mind, but ive always wanted to try a couple of their products.
What they don't like or use, take it.
I would love to see you test some stuff from Seoul Cosmetics.
You’re skin looks amazing! You’re face is glowing!!!
Your.
@@annaf.1109 autocorrect.
Right? His complexion looks lovely here!!
Hey James, would you still have the make moisturizer as one of your favorites? Have you tried the Mary &Kay antioxidante cream? Thank you I really appreciate your opinion.
Damn I wish I had those products from Ameon, when I was having chemo and radiotherapy, I had to use fragrance free shower gel (I ended up using stuff for babies) they gave me cream to moisture my skin, I had to use it twice a day, esp when u have radiotherapy as it can burn ur skin, once I got it in the neck area, it left me with a burn but thankfully it went away after treatment, but I had to use 2 different creams and put a dressing on it, so my clothes weren’t rubbing on it, I couldn’t even wear perfume, well I could spray it on my clothes just not the skin
Hey James!
I'd love your opinion on a neck cream. I turned 35 this month, and I swear my neck crease popped up overnight.
I learned about Experiment from you and got *really* interested in their products. However, as someone living in Finland I have no idea how to order them here from America. Could you please tell more about the shipment services you mentioned?
I love the brand Skinstitute. I'd love to see your opinion on them. It's an Aussie brand
@jameswelsh if using the saturated serum, would you apply a skin ceuticals vitamin C before or after? I usually apply hyaluronic acid to damp skin and then apply my vitamin C serum. Would the steps be the same if using the saturated serum? 😌❤️
I bought the iNNBeauty lip oil at James suggestion and loved it! The scent/taste and feel of it was wonderful, but unfortunately it made my lips break out due to, what I assume is an allergy. I am allergic to anything grapefruit (oil, peel oil, etc) and checked the ingredients for this product and didn't see anything like that. Guess I'm allergic to something else now, unfortunately.
Experiment only seem to ship within the US. How did you manage to get it shipped to the UK? 😊
hi james what would you think of olay cilligine peptide cream range please
Yess another James video💖
Have you tried the ordinary granactive retinol?
hi james! i love watching all your videos! i was wondering if you could maybe review/give your opinions on Millie Bobby Brown's skincare brand "Florence By Mills"?
I'll give you a review on par with James's thinking, don't buy it. I never buy products from celebrities because they're not skin care or makeup experts. There are some exceptions like house Labs by Lady Gaga, but it's like going to a taco stand that also happens to offer haircuts. You're probably not going to get a good taco there or a good haircut. Save your money and stay away from the celebrity brands girl!
We here!
I have been looking to buy at -home microcurrent device. My first choice i Foreo Bear and second Nuface , any recommendations?
I'm interested to see if people get actual results from the Skin Rocks retinoids, if they aren't irritating at all - do they actually do anything worthwhile?
At $80 I hope it did something drastic that my Tretinoin $3 isn't 🤣
@@natsl3049😂
What is that purplish bottle with the red round lid up to the top left?! I really want to know
i been on that holy hydration, i’m trying out glow recipe coz of you and you’re loving elf now!! 💀💀😭
I have been DYING to try the E.L.F blemish break through collection but they don't ship to Canada :(
Love from Bangladesh
Yeeeeyyyyyyyyyy ❤
Anyways luv the video
We just got Boots skincare in target here in the US. Can you review?
Nice to see you promoting cruelty free brands.
definitely obsessed with PSA Skincare these days.
Omg, so I just repurchased the Naturium body wash, and it turns out I used up an entire bottle of a contaminated body wash🤢🤢🤢 the first bottle I got was a watery consistency, then when I repurchased it I immediately noticed the bottle seemed fuller and heavier, but also that the consistency was almost like a thin lotion. I reached out to Naturium to see if they reformulated or something, but they didn't 🤢🤢 I'm so grossed out. They want to send me a new bottle, but I already have one, and they didn't do anything wrong, I shouldn't have bought the bottle when I saw the pump was up and not locked down like the rest of the bottles on the shelf. My bf said someone probably bought it then took out over half the product and just filled it back up with water and returned it, and then I bought that bottle. So im hoping thats what happened and it was just water, but omg I feel so disgusting now knowing I used that body wash for months, and it was mostly water😬😬😬
That's crazy that they would put a returned opened product back on the shelves, at least in Europe you can't run into that sort of thing as you can't return personal care products at all 😅
Sis if they wanna send you a free product, you take it!!!
Thats crazy
@@morgianasartre6709 I would not purchase from a store or company that puts a used product back on the floor.
@@catnip4587 Obviously nobody would either lol, it's not like anyone openly admits if they do that, but I would like to give them benefit if the doubt that it might have been an honest mistake on some employees part.
How can I buy this? It says it won’t ship too uk? Can you send me a link please I really interested to try this 🙂
Honestly I've been using the Elf Holy Hydration Face Cream for a few months now and I find that after about an hour my skin already feels dry and unmoisturized. I need something else, this was a let down.
Yes me too! Omg I’ve had that Elf Holy Hydration line in my bathroom cupboard for a couple months, but haven’t used it. So the other day I pulled it out to try it, and I absolutely hate it. I’m surprised so many people like those products. The cream is so thick, it feels like CeraVe; heavy, and packed with tons of thick, waxy ceramides 🤢 But, it didn’t even truly moisturize my skin. Then, the eye cream 🤦🏻♀️ ugh, that dried my under eyes so badly, and made them look so wrinkly. It has taken me a week to get them moisturized, and soft again. Thankfully they’re not expensive, so I didn’t feel too bad throwing them in the trash 😆
Can the skincare influencer gang please hype up the experiment serum more so they can ship worldwide, or at least to the UK. I've wanted this serum for the longest time!
looove your videos! still need to get on the whole acid game....Smart masking devices? You thoughts. I really want to buy this compact UFO 2 mask with led light and heat. Are you familiar with this brand? foreo They have great discounts now ....
girl, don't hesitate to get it. Device is great, little sheet masks don't have any harmful ingredients. so nourishing. Just look for sales, Foreo has them on sale right now!!!
I’m like 95% reluctant to try ANYTHING sponsored because let’s be real there is a blatant conflict of interest there. However… I will say I really, really enjoy the Holy Hydration collection. I have a few more expensive skincare items, but I tend to prefer using my Elf moisturizer more.
Yeah I’ll be honest and say I never really gave elf a chance 😗 I tend to avoid ‘viral’ products because it’s usually over hyped BS but I’ve been genuinely loving some of their products. The toner is for sure one of my new faves and like you said, their holy hydration stuff works great!
Lol is it " a dell vice" eidelweiss? Like the song?
I love James' videos, but i can only dream of using most of the recommended products. $30 is around 120PLN, which is A LOT for a skincare product. Not to mention the cream for $85. But maybe it's just me and I'm a cheapskate ;p
Nevertheless, thanks for the video :)
Xoxo
