Heyyyy,
A comment I get from people who, are often new to my channel and watch my videos in a random order…like everyone does, is that, one video I don’t like a product and the next video I do or vice versa and that I’m lying! To my subscribers!
But these videos are usually years apart, skin changes, sometimes we let first impressions spoil products that may be really good. And more often than not, a product just needs time to work for us.
So today, I want to share products that, I’ve changed my mind about!
From a recent Tatcha dewy cream purchase, to a product from The Ordinary that I slag off in nearly every video!

Remember that skincare is extremely personal to everybody's skin. What works for me, may not work for you. But I hope my videos give you some good ideas for products, techniques and Ingredients to try.
Also, i'm obviously not a dermatologist or a doctor, so all opinions on products and anything else i'm presenting, is results and findings from my own experience and research.
And that's why i'm here, to share my research and my findings that go further than what is said on the bottle or google!
But, everything I present is always a discussion for you to join in with :)
If you have any serious skin concerns, please see a dermatologist / doctor.

Tatcha is actually pronounced “eck-spin-siv”. Hope this helps.
Hahaha
Yo you got me there for a sec. LMAOOO 😂😂😂😂
tell me why i didn't catch this LMAO
LOOOOL! I actually said that out loud 😂😂👏🏻👏🏻
🤣🤣🤣🤣👏🏻
PSA: SKINCARE IS AN ONGOING THING! You're supposed to try things, toss things, and try things again. Skin changes, becomes immune to things, and has ups and downs. This is very different from "lying" LOL
Yes exactly! Thank you! ❤️
@@JamesWelsh At least you told the truth .
Well said!
You're absolutely right. When I lived in Germany, my skincare routine was minimal. Within the first week of living in California I had broken out into a cystic acne mess and I'm 35 😭
This is good to hear because half the time influencers are saying they hate everything in my cabinet and it’s working great for my skin right now! And when they give reasons it’s like yeah that is logical but it’s not like it’s BAD for my skin, it’s just not AS GOOD AS something twice as expensive.
James' "really bad breakouts" are what I consider clear skin on me😂😂
Truee so trueee 🤣🤣
I said fuck you so loud ehen i paused on the photo 😂
Lucy seriously !!! Lol
😂😂😂
Lucy same!!! I would kill to have my skin look like his on his worst day!
My skin using a deluxe sample: I LOVE THIS!!!!
My skin after buying a full size expensive item: I DON'T LIKE THIS ANYMORE!!
cham they actually found out years ago that perfume in samples is stronger and longer lasting than in bigger bottles. in my country at least
cham that would not surprise me in the slightest. I buy the travel size benefit roller lash mascara because it’s better than the full size. It shouldn’t be possible, but it is.
Same...
It's true though the amount of ingredients in the hooler bronzer is different from the bigger one
Antonia Boghiu yeah all my perfumes are just samples also so helpful to have one in your bag
That was a pretty bold title James lol. But I appreciate the transparency. Things change including research so there's no need to point fingers. We're just doing the best we can with the information available.
so true!
You're watching and commenting on the same creators I watch. It's like we follow all the same people.
Products mentioned:
0:57 Cetaphil - Oily Skin Cleanser (ended up not being suitable for his skin as his skin condition changed)
3:21 Tatcha - The Dewy Skin Cream (thought it was an expensive blah moisturiser but his skin ended up enjoying it after using it for a period of time)
6:16 The Ordinary - HA 2% + B5 (loved products with hyaluronic acid however stopped using them as it irritated his skin. Now slowly reintroducing it to his routine again)
8:17 The Ordinary - Azelaic Acid Suspension (did not like it initially as it didn’t feel good on his skin but began to enjoy it as a spot treatment for breakouts/inflammation)
10:10 Using oils in his routine (used to use oils in his routine but stopped as the products ran out since he never truly felt the need for it. Only uses oil in his cleansing routine)
U da GOAT lol
🖤
not all heroes wear capes
You are awesome! Thank you
Life saver 🙌
I know it's really a detail but thanks for showing your selfie with imperfections. It's nice to see that you are keeping it real and reminding us that everybody can have problems with skin ;)
☺️❤️
I got the Tatcha dewy cream as a sample in my little birthday freebies from Sephora, and the lady at the counter WARNED me I would get addicted to it. I thought “yeah that’s great but it’s like 70 dollars so I shant be buying it.” And now I’m over here 4 days into using it trying to figure out which organ I can sell on the black market in order to afford the full-sized version! 😩😩 it’s so heavenly!!!
Tatcha is another way to say “Fragrance”.
Got a sample, burns 🙃
Tiffany Padilla oof, it worked well for me, but not well enough to pay full price 😅 I got a sample size
First thing I thought about. Her skin care would probably be amazing if it wasn't for all the jar packaging and fragrance
Try their Indigo Cream instead! No fragrance & for sensitive skin. Works well & is even thicker
Tiffany Padilla aacaaa
Nobody:
James: "saahmple"
😂😂😂❤️
😂😂😂😂
Please this made me laugh out loud 😂😂😅
Ampouuuule
"Just kept using the saaaaaaaaaaaahhmple"
😂😫Girl you weren't kidding
The Tatcha dewy skin cream is by far one of their best products. The silk cream is also very nice but more expensive. I caved and purchased the dewy cream too because it honestly just made my skin look and feel so incredible. I have sensitive skin and rosacea and the little bit of added fragrance doesn't irritate it. Worth every penny.
I too have very sensitive skin and I love it!! My skin looks so fabulous and my makeup looks beautiful. After a while under my eyes looked creepey but not with this. Worth every penny❤
Facial skin is so tricky. Sometimes it doesn’t like something at first and then likes it later, or viceversa. But something I realized is that my skin likes way way more the real Korean skincare in general than western mainstream skincare. Go figure.
My Tatcha, fresh, it cosmetics, murad, and drunk elephant products are getting covered by the largest spiderwebs ever 😂
Florecita What products have you traded up those brands for?
I recently found out my skin likes it when I don’t cleanse on no makeup days😹
Dude fr, drunk elephant is so pointless for that price
My facial skin is tricky too. When I was in Asia, I was an oily fried beancurd 24/7, 365 days per year. When I'm in Northern America, my skin changes seasonally and that's the first time I learned how dry skin feels like.
yeaaaahhh this is SO TRUE HAHAHA i've experienced my skin not liking a product then liking it after 2 weeks lol wth
I trust you implissantly. You have changed my skin after 50 yrs of disasters. Hiding at home because my skin was so bad. Thank you James.
I trust you explicitly as well, James. Thanks for all you do.
*implicitly
Glad your skin is doing so well!
Damn autocorrect.
Uncle Otis, hope you're investing into self care and loving yourself because you're worth it!!! Don't forget self love and care during quarantine!
Everyone is entitled to change their mind or opinion. Means you’re learning and growing 👌🏼
I totally feel you with the tatcha dewy skin cream! I bought the full size cuz I LOVED the sample; and i'm like wow, this is so expensive but my skin LOVES it. Thanks for the video James!!
Ahhhh it’s so good isn’t it?! Glad I’m not alone haha
@@JamesWelsh You're not alone, I have the same exact problem ...
I don’t get it. I had to return it. It just sits on my skin and it felt kind of ‘waxy’. Dimethicone (sp?) was quite high up on the ingredients, which surprised me. I am no ingredient expert but I think that’s what made it feel like it wouldn’t sink in?
@@krissydmckenzie maybe if you're a little sensitive to silicone ingredients... I am and it's why I don't love the Tatcha, lucky my wallet ☺ They usually add it to moisturizer to help prevent TEWL (trans-epidermal water loss).
My cousin tried this cream and she loved it so much that she ordered the entire line of Tatcha. She says the fact that they're expensive is what makes her do skincare regimen daily😆
One thing that always make me grind my teeth about Tatcha is that every items are Japan inspired and made in Japan but the shippings to Japan is so expensive.
What makes me crazy is the Brazilian inspired brand sol de janeiro with their “bum bum cream” etc is not sold in Brazil!
UK. I paid 28£ additional customs tax for 40£ package coming from US , as extra to shipping costs. Will have to wait for tatcha coming to UK one day hopefully. Or move to country that doesnt scam 50+% of product price on customs tax.
They’re not worth it in my opinion. They mimic so many Asian brands, but have priced their products in the same ballpark as skll. It’s just the packaging that’s beautiful 🤣
@@-MaryPoppins- it sure is expensive but their products are very good.I don't buy bcos of its pkging!
Spicy mami they’re good, but I’ve found the same results with much, MUCH cheaper products hun!!! They mark up their products so much. The packaging is gorgeous though. If I didn’t pay for my daughters ridiculous private school daycare, I’d totally buy them 😂
The ability to admit you were wrong or changed your mind is amazing and you being able to do that gives me another reason to make you my skincare go to!! 💗
As a female I am totally used to loving a product for x amount of weeks just to have it give me a wicked reaction a couple weeks later. Same with "sometimes hair" products. Since my body is on a hormone roller coaster, this happens to me all the time. Maybe guys have similar ups and downs? Dunno. It's why I don't immediately toss it in the bin. It could be fine again in 2 months. No worries, we still love you James.🐾✖
Weather too. I am way oiler in the summertime than in winter.
Same, i relate to that. It happens to my EVERY facial cream (damn it really is tricky one for me still. My skin prefers oils than moisturizer), skii FTE, most TO’s serums, nacific toner (i overused it and at one point my skin became very sensitive and dry lol)
Sameeeeee
Maybe you should get your hormone levels checked. It should only be fluctuating during menstruation when testosterone levels rise. They should change as you get older, but not like that
@@belalugosisdead4444 I'm 45 and my once-like-clockwork cycle is betraying me the past 2-3 years. Doc says welcome to your 40s. I said 🤬
When your skin is telling you that it likes something, do you ignore it?
Uhmm... my wallet does, force me to
James: lets try tatcha k?
Skin: oh fancy alright
*days later*
Skin: I NEED MORE
James: but-- is kinda pricey
Skin: I SAID MORE PEASANT
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Just bought my first one tonight can’t wait 😅😅
@@CAPTINjacksparrow I bought the Tatcha Dewey Skin Cream and my face loved it too especially in cold Midwest winter. The Neutrogena dupe works well in the summer. My wallet still on the fence. It's now $69.00
@@BuffyNoir140 Honestly I can’t wear it before makeup cause my makeup starts peeling 🙃😩
@@CAPTINjacksparrow could it be one is oil based and the other one is water based? Could look into a water based foundation and try that since tatcha’s dewy skin cream is water based :)
I used to get drying "anti-oily skin" stuff for my acne. Thankfully I realised I needed moisture, after discovering the amazing world of korean skincare. I also used to pshycial exfoliation a lot, but my sensitive skin just doesn't like it.
Oh I used to do that too! Glad we both realised we needed moisture and hydration ☺️
What Korean products worked best for you? I wanna discover the moisturizing side of dealing with acne and marks.
What korean products did you used/ use ?
I recently got the Freshly Juiced Serum (5% vitamin C) and I love it ☺️ I want to build my skin's tolerance to be able to use up to 15%. It has smoothed me out a bit and improved the redness, but not anything incredible. It doesn't irritate me at all though.
As for moisturizer, I just get any cruelty free brand. I would love to try cosrx with Centella Asiatica though
@@kalliopistefani4182 thank you for sharing
I ALMOST THOUGHT YOU WERE GONNA SAY THE ORDINARY'S NIACINIMIDE
hi! are you prone to malessezia breakouts?
What is that good for?
@@Rosel810 dark spots and blemishes
@@rimjhimkhandaker9832 does that really work???
@Fir. A I've been using it for 2 months twice a day and it has definitely helped with my acne scars, it's a good product
My skin got irritated from Hyaluronic acid but a few months later I switched to The Ordinary’s Marine Hyaluronic and my skin has been loving it!
I just received my marine hyaluronic and wow, my skin just drinks it up! I’m super excited to continue using. However, I was wondering how many drops do you suggest to use?
Connie Y I’ve been using mine for the past three days and I love it! I use about 8 drops just because my skin soaks up the product so fast it’s really difficult to spread the product well over my face. I don’t think my bottle will last very long haha
@glimpseofgold I just started it using it too because the HA seems to bother my skin somedays. Glad to hear it works!!!
@@basicallywinnie1294 oh I've found when my skin absorbs serums and things like HA quickly I'll apply a small amount of water(very small) and spread around my skin that way the HA can get around better
I was definitely shook about the title! But yes, it’s 100% ok to change your opinion on a product because our skin likes to act up! 😂😭
Hahahaha! You’ll never know how happy it makes me to hear you change your mind about the Tatcha dewy skin cream. I love it sooooo much 💜
Damn it James 😭 I’m on my third bottle of the dewy skin cream and just managed to convince myself I’ll be able to find something else I like, and you just confirmed all my thoughts on how I can’t live without it
Kathleen Casey me either ! I love Tatcha skincare products they work so well for my skin.
I wanted to hate the tatcha dewy skin cream bc it’s expensive but I love it 😫
What are the benefits you've noticed? I've been contemplating on buying it but its 120 dollars where I live 😳
I’m happy to see you changed your mind on the Tatcha product. Every time I try to switch to something else my skin just doesn’t like it as much. So many people hate in Tatcha for being gimmicky and pricey but it really does have great ingredients and my skin has never been better.
I am oily and sensitive, glad my skin loves rosehip oil.
I feel like people see products in a video (an "I love" video or an "I hate" video) and take it as face value like that is exactly what they're supposed to love and hate. But it's not, it's what *your* skin likes or dislikes, or what other beauty people like or don't like. It doesn't mean that it's going to do the same thing to their skin as it is to someone else's! People need to remember that! Just because someone else has a certain opinion about it, doesn't mean you will have the same opinion! ☺️
What I absolutely hated? Skin care in general! It was always a disappointment of expense, followed by breakouts and bad skin 😪 When I finally learned about Korean skincare, and that my oily skin could also be dehydrated at the same time, I had a 180° change of heart... I love my new skin! And you're channel helped me discover so much more... Thank you!! 💖
Story about the Cegaphil cleanser: when i had severe cystic acne i went to a dermatologist who promptly told me to stop moisturizing and only use the Cetaphil cleanser twice a day. I told her my skin gets very dry, and she 1) didn't believe me because "you can't have dry skin and acne as bad as yours" and 2) "you want your skin to be dry". Never went back to her and never used that stupid cleanser. On another note, CeraVe has been the best brand for me both through my horrible acne period and after Accutane. Used the hydrating cleanser when my skin was flaking off, and now that its normalized I use the foaming one. I use the moisturizing lotion and it's the best and most accessible moisturizer I've used. Thats after years of experimenting with all sorts of Korean skincare and otherwise.
I know its boring and not fun, but minimizing down to just 2-4 steps has really helped me
That's horrible for her to have said. Personally it's the only thing my son can use m he has mass cell mastetosis. We also use the deep cream after. Because the cleanser can be drying, but at the same time cleans really well. It also helped clear my husbands body acne.
Thank God you didn't listen to her
Max Garcia I’m sorry but what a stupid bitch LOLLL! I have heard as many derm horror stories as derm good stories!! I guess it’s all about finding one that works for you! I’m glad you’re doing well and found things that work for you!
The glow recipe banana souffle! When I first got it like my skin would just drink it up in a second and I felt like it wasnt giving my skin enough hydration because I didnt have that glowy moisturized face but after a few weeks I started to see real significant changes in my skin and its moisture barrier, soo much more hydrated now and it taught me to not dismiss products if they don't have a flashy instant effect because long term results are far better
Okay, hear me out. James and Hyram doing a collab. Anyone else?🙋🏻♀️
We have a collab video on our channels! But hopefully when everything’s back to normal, we will collab in real life ☺️
James Welsh yes! An in person collab would be so amazing!💜💜💜
I adore tatcha. The primer and the creams especially. I’ve used 4 jars- which is something I NEVER really do. My dry skin loves it.
Can you talk about fermented skincare?
X2
yes! And essences.. or both combined!! Fermented essences. Are they worth the extra step in your routine?
Myrthe De Jonge and serums!
YES
He has
I was sitting on the edge of my (toilet) seat because I have dry skin, and I love the Tatcha dewy skin cream. I use it at night, and I just got the Milk moisturizer for the morning to replace the Tatcha Water cream because that one didnt moisturize my skin enough.
So moral of the story : everyone’s skin is different and one persons trash is another persons treasure. 🥰
Omg the tatcha dewy skin cream is crazy!! My skin is dry and very sensitive but it loves this cream. I usually use the lala retro from drunk elephant but I decided to try one of the tatcha value sets and the results were amazing. My skin looks and feels beautiful, glowy and hydrated. All my skincare is fragance free except for this cream and so far I have not had any reaction. I know it is expensive, but if you have the money and are investing it in another cream, you should try the dewy skin. 🤍✨
Ah, Tatcha! Wait until you try their essence!!! 😍 I’ve been hooked on their stuff for a few years now. My skin has never been better. It is definitely a splurge, but I found that I don’t need as much concealer and other products to even out my skin tone, so that helps to offset the cost. 😬
I bought tatcha after 2 yrs of convincing myself I didn’t need to spend that much money to have an oil free, blackhead free and break out controlled face. Nothing worked for my face longer than 4 weeks. Until I bought the face wash, toner and water cream from tatcha. These past 6 months have literally transformed my face. My face now craves Tatcha.
It would be amazing if you did new 5 best of every skincare step since these videos are old and you might have new recommendations 🥰😍❤
"my moisturizer is just rolling around my skin like playdough" omg i can't stop laughing idk why I find that so funny
Omg you’re allowed to change your mind!! Who are these people commenting “you lied”?!
yessss to personal growth and going back and TELLING people what you’ve changed your mind about 💗💗💗
The same thing happened to me with another cleanser aswell... It was amazing for months, my skin seemed to love it, I recommended it to all my friends.. And all of a sudden my skin was a desert 😂 It dried my skin out so much over time :(
I just "found" you a few days ago, and I can't get enough. I absolutely ADORE YOU!!! Not only do I learn from you, you make me smile. Thanks!
addicted to your content and your brother's. cant study without your podcasts, watched this as I unbox my Nature Republic products because I was inspired by how much you love korean skincare.
OMG I feel exactly the same way about the Azelaic product by the ordinary. The formulation is confusing. Really happy you are talking about. Will start using it as spot treatment too now. thanks 😉
I don't like Tatcha. Everytime I use the water cream for oily skin... when my skin get oily... it irritates my eyes... so I stop using it. Also, it's expensive too.
Moisturizer is not meant to go in your eyes
@@Lenlenlen07 uh yeh... But when the face become oily... It does seek to the eyes and irritated, other moisturizer are fine.
Don't try to sound like a smart ass, because you end up sounding stupid.
I’m not a fan of the Water Cream either. Korres had a Rose day cream that was a similar idea but far more effective that I lived for but I haven’t been able to find it for a while.
Andrea Riker I noticed fragrance and/or essential oils makes my eyes irritated. I was using the Rovectin Cira Cream line and it gave me same reaction (along making my skin so oily), now I been using the aqua line... (no fragrance) and it seems to be ok. Hope something work out for you... it’s so hard to find a skin care regimen that works.
The little scoff laugh both you and your brother do when you can't be bothered with something. I love it.
The last time I was this early, I thought the twins were the same person.
Haha
😂😂😂
I agree with you, I’m more oily / dehydrated/ combo and I do enjoy the Tatcha dewy skin cream but the water gel is not enough for my skin. I’ve also heard that “gold” in skincare can actually do more harm then good and can cause irritation. Plus it’s just unnecessary.
So basically he overdosed on hyaluronic acid and is now taking it in moderation😆
Skincare is a journey. It's ever changing, never ending, and always different for each and every one of us.
Haven't watched till the end, and clicked like ❤
I just love that you admit that you changed your mind and I love this because changing your mind is fine, sometimes it happens. Love you 💖
I'm so terrified because I have bought a lot of stuff you have said were amazing 😳😳😳 my own fault for watching so many of your old videos!!! GAAAAAH so scared while watching.
if it works for you keep using it, just because james doesn’t like it doesn’t mean it’s going to be bad for you
@@steph1802 fair enough, he just knows soooo much about KBeauty and I know (lol) what he's told me 😂🙃
I feel exactly the same way about oils. I used to use them in my routine but I stopped because I felt like it was ruining my routine even though it didn't truly do that at all. I now, only use it for double cleanse 😅
Likewise. I really want to love face oils... but they don’t agree with me
Me too. I used to seal with a face oil.
I love Oils but only on my neck routine! 💁🏻🌸
I use Herbivore Phoenix every day. I have to get some new products but I'm super dry so I cleanse one time (double cleasing ain't for me) and smooth on the drops & follow with moisturizer before bed. My skin clears up quickly, looks poreless, & is so smooth! Sometimes it's hard to find the right formula in oils but if you do look for one, the brand Herbivore has some great ones.
I ditched Cetaphil years ago, I am hitting 25 and start using other non-foamy much cleanser with 5.5 pH & my skin never been better. All other skincare lines I use work so much better after I ditched Cetaphil.
Wait till you hit 45. You ain’t seen nothin yet!
Aku dari awal ga suka Cetaphil sih. Karena brand-nya punya motto "sensitive skin expert", tapi ingredients yang ada di semua produknya ga sesuai klaim. Cleanser-nya aja ada kandungan SLS-nya. Sayangnya, di Indonesia susah banget nemuin produk skincare yang clean sama bener2 cocok buat kulit sensitif. Kalo pun ada, cuma ada di online marketplace, dan harganya jauh lebih mahal daripada di luar negeri.
Happy Day why so salty about age? I’m just telling my experience 🤦🏻♀️
White Paper yapp bener banget! I rely alot on korean skincare karena di Indo banyak yg claimnya no harmful ingredients tapi ga berani ngelist full apa2 aja yg ada di produk mereka. Kalo skincare korea bisa dicek full ingredientsnya di skincharisma jadi ngerasa aman aja karena tau apa yg dipakein ke kulit.
What cleanser do you use now?
Love you James. You can change your mind all you want. Just because you change your mind doesn't make you are a liar. The people who called you a liar are just mean.
I read The Ordinary and I was like “oh no” bc I bought the niacinamide a few weeks ago. I would have still continued to use regardless but I would have been a bit disheartened
Hey how is it going ? Does it really work ?
@@sheherinj9743 I'm not OP, but I really like it! It helps with redness and discoloration a lot, and I have sensitive skin (probably rosacea) and it doesn't bother me. I'm not sure how to judge how well it does for breakouts tho: it definitely brings down inflammation and redness, but most of my breakouts are hormonal + under the skin. Not eating dairy has done more for me relative to that then any product ever has, including this one. The azelaic acid 10% has helped with the hormonal breakouts a bit, but I wouldn't recommend using that on your whole face at 10% strength. Maybe mix it with the niacinamide so it's like 4 parts niacinamide to 1 part azelaic acid [8% niacinamide and 2% azelaic acid] and use the 10% as a spot treatment only. Azelaic acid burns like a bitch if you overuse it, and it's technically a chemical exfoliate. It's effective but it takes a good 1-2 months to really see a huge difference.
Apollo Fateh thank you so much for your transparent review. I will work on what you said XOXO
@@sheherinj9743 hi friend! also not OP but i used it for months and my sebaceous filaments were practically gone! however, i do like the inkey list better
I’m so glad you changed your mind about Tatcha. It is expensive, but it lasts for quite a long time. I’ve been using the water cream for about 6 months, and have noticed a dramatic change in my skin. Even my Aesthetician has commented on how hydrated my skin is.
Brand review on Innisfree pleeeease 💓
Kylie lying about being a billionaire I can believe, but this vid caption had me gaspingg 😱😱 James, say it isn’t so!!?!!
I somehow love these type of videos. Try doing this often whenever you grow out on products u used to love 😊
TO AA is a holy grail of mine because I put it on after moisturizer, not before! Sure, the layering may prevent the AA from reaching the skin as well, but it's a small trade-off for the amazing benefits it delivers despite the layering! It's a game changer if you put it after your moisturizer dries down a little. Redness, breakouts, banished! Please give it another try!!!!
Do you still use the Cosrx Blackhead Power Liquid? I haven't seen you mention it in more recent videos :)
Could someone review it??? Does it work for blackheads
Question... Hi.... I do... I can't decide which one is better Paula's Choice BHA soooooo confused..... They both work well and Cosrx is less $$$$$$$
Sandi CeCe Bort I use CosRx and I feel like it’s decent but I’ve heard really good things about paulas choice and want to try that one next
I own and use both. I think Paula’s Choice is stronger. CosRx doesn’t seem as strong which is good for when I want something less intense.
@@ccedwards7 Why say "question" before you ask a question?
Do you say "sentence" before you speak? Just sayin' . . . .
Hope your skin clears soon! Thanks for posting this video to give us more to watch during this challenging time.
the Way I PAUSED MY KDRAMA FOR THIS
Big sacrifice 😂
Same 🤣🤣
What are you watching?
Which kdrama r u watching ??
what are you watching siss
I think that’s why when people recommend skincare, it’s best to test it out for several month to see if they stick around. We appreciate you sm! These videos are so important to give us updates we may have never known about otherwise! Please do more of there’s more to talk about :)
"Do you ignore it?"
Yes, if it's Tatcha. Pick up Primera or Belif instead?
Primera's Alpine Berry cream is truly the shit, I LOVE it
I love the plumpness of hyaluronic acid too, but it is dehydrating if used in dryer climates. So I use it usually in summers when there is moisture in the air. One tip my dermat gave me was i can mix it with my moisturizer(1/3 part as hyaluronic acid and 2/3 parts moisturizer).
Cetaphil was actually good for me when I was starting to get rid of my acne. However I don’t use It everyday, I cycle like 3 cleansers in my week and cetaphil actually does good on my acne. When no acne, I I rarely ever use it
I also don’t have problem with redness besides recently around my nose and my youth to the people kale moisturizer fixes that but the azealeic acid i absolutely love when I’m breaking out as well. However I don’t put it around my nose or above my lips and Ofcourse not around my eyes.
Everyone’s skin is different and that’s why I wish people would just give samples a try even if your favorite CZcams :) says not to lol
I use my cetaphil the same way but when my acne gets bad I like to use it. I switch between that, the “Then I Met You” cleansing duo and random samples. I like the duo but the witch hazel and licorice really aggravates anything sore for me so I use cetaphil and it calms any of those sensitive bumps. \^_^/ skin’s so complex!
I got a full size dewy skin cream in a cosmetips box and used it all up. My skin loves it and was the best it had ever looked. I've nearly used up another 2 different moisturisers since I had it but I think I have to spend the money on it again because it was just the best thing for my skin and I've never seen any other moisturiser make my skin look how that did
Just when I was about to start eating 😭 perfect timing
I am oily but during the winter it will be more dry and dehydrated and during the summer the oil is uncontrollable, so it’s great that you clarify not all products may work on you year round. It’s 100% true and your skin changes as you age, travel, have children, etc.
I use the TO azealic acid only in my night time routine, just like you as a spot treatment and on dark spots.
This is the first video of yours I've watched and I must say that you have such a wonderful warm presence.
You talk as if you are talking to me like a friend. You make me feel so comforted by watching you.
When I was younger I had to switch cleaner every few months because my skin would get use to it and my skin would get oily again and break out. Now I use black soap
My trick to The Ordinary's azelaic acid is to apply it right after serum, before the serum dries down. Otherwise it does dry to an almost powdery feel as you apply and becomes hard to spread evenly. If you're having problems with it playing nice with the products you layer on top of it, I have found that it helps to wait several minutes for the azelaic acid to settle on your skin before moving on with your routine. In my experience, this makes a huge difference in the amount of pilling this product can cause. I have perioral dermatitis and this product has been a holy grail for keeping it at bay without resorting to antibiotics or expensive prescription topicals.
I would love to see you start trying more J beauty products. There’s so much more that are so amazing. Tatcha just replicated its ingredients from japan that can be found so much cheaper by following our version of drag queen type makeup wearers, the Geishas, maikos etc and what they use. I.e.: Melano vit C essence (THE best vit C IMO due to quality and packaging is genius cuz it’s stay fresh til the last drop and doesn’t cost a newborn baby) use twice a day to really see great affects, Hado Labo is another great product for Laneige toner moisturizer dupe, Kanebo suisai pods etc etc. I’d love to see you promote some really great affordable J beauty products as well as K beauty. You and your brother should try Sofina Primavista Long Keep Base UV primer (I know I know, horrible long name). But if not there’s many many more great J beauty primers that work amazingly well.
Im interested in J Beauty too..
Can you recormend me a good J Beauty cleanser for sensitive Skin ? :)
Yes yes yes! I love Hada Labo! I'd like that too!! I'm going to look at all if the recommendations you just made. Thanks!
Edit: I have the Komeyu Rice Bran oil and I love it!
Started the hada labo gokyujun hydrating line (foaming cleanser, lotion, and perfect gel cream) last month (Apr 23, 2020) and OH MY G. The Hada Labo hydrating lotion is now my absolute holy grail.
I do not really like the cleanser and the perfect gel but omggg the lotion was lit.
I have an oily and acne prone skin and my face LOVES that lotion (which is really a toner for those not familiar with Hada Labo). For some reason, I don't wake up with a really oily face unlike a month earlier. So, am really thankful I discovered the Hada Labo products: they work and they don't break the bank.
I'm obsessed with the Naturie Hatumogi Skin Conditioning Gel. It is such an excellent (and cheap) gel moisturizer for oily skin! Light but still moisturizing enough.
-Pancake- czcams.com/video/sYbuL861WVI/video.html anything in the Hada Labo Gokujyun line is amazing. For dry sensitive skin, start with any of the white bottles that have some red lettering on them. There’s also Perfect Whip but I have not tried myself. You really can’t go wrong with any J beauty cleanser. I would look for more milk cleansers for hydration.
Here’s more info on the Hyaluronic lotions. www.google.ca/amp/s/btyaly.com/articles/is-hada-labo-lotion-the-best-hyaluronic-acid-product-on-the-market/%3famp Good luck!
Also, DHC cleansing oils for first cleanse are great! Especially their DHC Lip cream. I was never into wearing much lip balms but this literally melted away my dry lip skin and my dry skin bits have not returned since! Never have I ever had this type of results just from lip balm before. And of course the Biore Aqua Rich UV essence for SPF is top of many people’s list. But any j beauty spf is so light and airy in texture again, you can’t go wrong.
Also, for the Melano Cc vit c essence, just a tip: if ordering from Amazon, pls be very careful to make sure it’s coming from japan or a reputable seller. Many people received fake products and you will know from the nozzle but sadly won’t know until you get it. It’s an amazing white nozzle that only gives you small drips at a time and does not let air back in so stays fresh till last drop and best of all, no hot dog water smell. It’s genius. Just don’t cut off the tip cuz some people have! Lol. You can find a pic of the nozzle somewhere for how it’s supposed to look like. If you have a store that sells Japanese foods or J, K or C supermarket call and check if they also sell any J beauty products.
The Cetaphil has denatured alcohol and SLS, no winder you found it drying. I love your channel, thank you for this! 🖤🖤🖤
I’m never this early!!! Love your videos! You, Hyram, and Cyrille have helped me so much!! I’m 42 and we were never taught any of this. Now I’m passing along the knowledge to my younger nieces and nephews, this way they don’t have the same problems their Mom and I do!! Hope none of the ones I bought because of the positive reviews is on here. Lmao 😂 And I love your sense of humor, along with your brother’s channel too. PS Cetaphil was the worst for me. I had horrible acne, like REALLY bad. It made things worse!
My moms 45 and I'm trying to form a skin care regime for her. Anything u recommend or live by
spirit-howl 786 ironically it’s something I wish those guys would do a video on because everything is geared towards the younger generations! lol. What type of skin does your Mom have? Dry? Combination? Oily? I’d imagine her concerns are the same as mine...gravity is taking it’s toll 😂 so tightening, brightening, fine lines, wrinkles? I have some old acne scars too. Let me know and I’ll tell you what I’ve been doing. I’ve tried a bunch of different products at this point so hopefully I can point you in a useful direction.
Is that you in your profile? You look stunning!
@@narcoasa3968 I think retinol and deep nourishing creams will do the trick and ALSO SUNSCREEN SUNSCREEN
Oh james. I'm new to your channel and I watch them not in order. My son has bad teenage skin problem. I in the other hand had , nope still have good skin. But, I do appreciate your honesty and Im listening to what you say. I bought him Cetaphil, I will be careful on how he uses it. Like your other readers comments sometimes the skin will no longer like the product. I'm learning so much from ALL of you. Keep it up James.
Thank you for changing the intro to just saying hello and then getting right into it. Love that.
Your videos have helped me so much with my skincare, it’s something I’ve always loved and I have always tried to use Korean things too. Now I know more about what certain ingredients help with things. Thank you for always being 100% transparent with what you think about products!
Tbh i feel much More comfortable now that you have shared your breakout face(no offence). I mean it in a good way
i agree about our skin changing from time to time.. i believe this also has to do with the concentration of the active ingredients of product you use. like, at one time the product was actually good for your skin, and then perhaps later on, when the skin problem is already gone, you may need to slowly lay off of the product or use another one that can do the same job but with milder ingredients.
Last time I was this early to something, CZcams wasn't toxic haha thanks for a delightful Friday, James! 💕
I love the tatcha dewy skin cream. It honestly did improve my skin a lot and it wasn’t irritating at all. I actually prefer it over the water cream tbh
I feel the exact same way about oils. I'm "into" skin care so I felt like I should have them, but I'm not that bothered. I prefer not to use them and I do feel like they ruined the enjoyment of my routine x
I got the same reaction with Cetaphil. It dried my skin out. I re-used it and gave it another chance -so I stopped trusting the brant. I now use Cerave Hydrating Cleanser and it's the best.
Last time I was this early I had clear skin
ah so your baby version
Fuckkkk me too :(
I love the azealic acid! I use it for hyperpigmentation but only over night. I use alpha arbrutin then azealic acid and then a thick night cream! I'm mixed race so I have darker blemishes so I use it over a my cheeks and chin for example. It takes a couple of weeks to see a difference, but need sun screen on everyday!
you should call the ordinary because i don't think you're suppose to mix those 2 together...... i have both btw
@@lovelynaisha_ You can use them together, I was recommended using alpha first, then azealic. They are supposed to work better together and I have better results when they are used together xxxx
Of course you're allowed to change your mind about a product. It's a shame the vocal few are so often unpleasant, accusatory, and entitled. 😒
Cetaphil was my mother's HG cleanser for years and she had amazing skin. I still keep a small bottle in my travel kit. I keep hearing terrible things about it recently, but it hasn't betrayed me yet! 😅
I have persistent eczema that gets dry or flared up often, especially during drier weathers. Tatcha’s dewey moisturizer is a daily! It lasts me at least 1.5 years so why not? Tatcha’s Silk Cream is definitely nourishing and my skin responds best with that! While Dewy keeps my skin healthy, the Silk Cream helps reverse my dry patches!
"Skincare products I LIED about"
Me: bold move Cotton
awwww cotton 😍😍😍😍
As a fellow oily-skinned twin who also loves skincare, your videos are SO fun to watch, whether solo or with Robert. I always love watching how other twins act and seeing if they're more/less twinny than me and my sister. Love from Canada!
I wanted to love the tatcha but it’s so heavily fragranced
Yeah if your skin doesn’t like fragrance, it will hate Tatcha!
Same. I'm fascinated by Tatcha jars and the creams for dry skin feel wonderful. I know my dry skin would love it...except they have too much fragrance.😕😭
Just bought the tatcha and used it on half my face and WOW! I usually get a tingly feeling because Im allergic to every product under the sun lol BUT Ive found my holy grail. Im so happy and IDK Ill pay whatever just to have clear skin. My skin loves this stuff 😍😘🥳
