I regularly use these blades about every week and a half. I do not go over the same spot several times, there is no need to. I pull my skin taut and go along with the grain. I've never had a problem! Got nicked once because my my attention wavered. I sterilize it before vise every time. Used with care, it's been a great tool.
I agree!
I should say I always use it on DRY skin! When the skin is damp there seems to be greater risk of nicks.
Love Twinkle razors! Work wonderful for me, no redness, cuts or skin abrasion
Hi Liz how're you doing today?
I’m so sorry that you’ve had such bad experiences with this tool. I have recently started using this little thing and have had perfect results!!! My makeup goes on much more smoothly. I love the pillow talk products so enjoyed getting more ideas.
We love and appreciate everything we get from your channel. Keep up the good work!!!
I have been using the Tinkle razors for years and have never cut myself. I use it on dry skin, some people use oil. Agreed common sense dictates you must be careful. I get baby soft skin.
Me too, never had an issue with Tinkle.
Same. Never had an issue with them. Use them frequently.
Hello! I hope you had a joyful day! I got lots done in my sewing room today and now I'm sitting with my hand quilting while I watch your video. I hope you have a beautiful week ahead! Thank you for sharing your time and talent.
So glad you talked about these shavers!! I also had a terrible experience with these and I no longer use them! You’ve helped a lot of people with this information! Thank you 🙏
Thank You for your professional advice and looking out for us Nikol!
Always love watching and learning. Thank you for the close ups of your skin and makeup application. The Charlotte T adds a youthful glow and looks more like a tinted moisturizer, but seems to have good coverage. Have a great day!
Thank you for confirming for me that the blades are trash. I tried to use it on my face and my results were similar to yours.
I teach my clients to do eyes first also, it just makes sense. I have gone Grey too, you have inspired. Was a redhead for 35 years, now I don't have to get my roots every 7 weeks. It's great to get information to more mature clients from a real aesthetician.
You are just the sweetest individual,positive and graceful.
Thank you for teaching the eye first method! I always struggled with fallout, especially getting older. And, thank you for teaching us to change things up as we get older. My makeup looks so much better! I didn’t wear much until my 40s when I had cystic acne - just eyeliner, mascara and some rose blush on cheeks and eyes to brighten them. Now, I’m having so much fun with color and making older eyes pop but not look over made! And, good quality shadows are a must! I was always cheap and it showed.
Your make up here is so pretty, love the warm pinky peachness, and it looks pretty with your robe too. Speaking of robes, I purchased this robe in the black you had in your last video. I love it, thanks for the recommendation!
You're glowing Nikol!! It looks so beautiful!!
As always… informative and fun!!! Appreciate the info on the fake derma blades. Ouch! Thanks for showing us the “pillow talk” palette. I am a fan. Also love Furtuna skincare. Can’t wait to try their new day and night moisturizer.♥️
Thank you Nikol! I have been using makeup since I was 13 and am now 66. I have always done my eyes first. It never made sense to me to put on your foundation and then have your hands on it while applying your eye 👁 shadows and mascara. I use a battery operated tool to shave my face. No nicks or cuts!
I so love watching you. You make everything so fun 🤩 thank you so much 😊
I simply adore your videos, especially when you make me laugh with your adorable personality. You look beautiful!
Love your content, love your advice, love your products! Have ordered eyelid/lip primer, just peachy, brighten up concealer, and nude lip liner and can not preach enough on how you have perfected these products for us 50+ women - and I'm a make-up/skin-care addict! On derma planning topic - I have been getting it for YEARS professionally it IS A GAME CHANGER! Years of beauty mistake wisdom, i would NEVER attempt on my own. It's just not a tool/skin care you do on your own, in my opinion. Thank you for sharing your professional opinion on this...keep up the great content!
Hi Nikol beautiful makeup, thank you for warning us about the razors.
As always a lesson with some good conversation and great cosmetic tips. Thank you💐
Absolutely agree with you, Nikol. Many thanks for the info. 🦋
You are so real and funny. I am soooo with you on the practice of doing eyes first, clean up and then face. I have been doing that for years and it saves me a lot of headaches. I started playing with eye makeup when I was 12. Mom didn’t know because I took it off before she got home from work. I saw an article in Good Housekeeping that show different eye shapes and how to apply eye makeup to enhance those shapes. I would love to see you do something like that
Nikol you are a professional..the best by far! Love your channel!
Thank you
Fabulous video and chuckled thro'out. I have the CT Pillow Talk pallet and didn't use the sheen colour. Will start using sheens again.
Happy your fur baby's eye has healed.
Looking stunning
Thank you
Great tutorial as usual, you look amazing 👩🏻🦳🌸 have a great day and hugs from Canada 🇨🇦
Yes doing eyes first makes total sense!
I had a very bad reaction to the micro needling roller, thank goodness it did not scar my skin. Thank you Nikol.
I am so glad you did the video. I just picked up a package and I was putting off using it,I kept looking at it and I just got a bad vibe from it (sounds crazy I know) I was afraid of bleeding. I had a stroke 6 years ago by the grace of God I was lucky and I was good as new in a days. However they put me on a few meds that were blood thinners ,So I am sorry that happened to you and I am so happy that I think it was you that was the angel on my shoulder saying don't do!!! :) Thank you again and keep teaching us to keep us from hurting ourselves!
I've been using a regular razor with shaving cream for YEARS! No cuts or rashes. I'm 67/
I’ve thought of buying these as I’ve never taken the peach fuzz off, but thanks to you I will save my time. Also, super excited to get my eye primer as I just recently ordered it!
I am so glad your friend is healing. Eyes are so important. I watch you because I learn and none of us here have perfect skin. Practice makes perfect and sometimes we have to just keep working with it. I do love my mat eye shadow but I add a little slight shimmer at the end in the middle of my lid. To much shows to much texture. I also love that you encourage us to try something different but not dramatic. Ugh we aren’t 25 anymore and some things we see on other women simply aren’t for us. Furthermore some of creators I watch need to take a step back sometimes. Let’s me classy not brassy
I use the blades but I’m so careful after seeing what happened to you. Love the makeup tutorial! Thank you for sharing. So glad your little French dog is doing so much better.
Nikol, I highly appreciate your knowledge, so THANK YOU.
I was wondering if you would do a one and done eyeshadow look. I’m asking, because the video’s I have watched seem to always lean towards a grungy look, and that’s not what I’m looking for. It seems like a one and done look could still look pulled together and polished, but the right technique’s are what is needed. Thanks again for your knowledge.🥰❤️
Would love to see a deep set eye mature makeup tutorial. Love your look
So pretty. I love the eyeshadow colors.
I love your chocolate brown eyeliner! I also love Charlotte's eyeshadow and lipstick both Pillow Talk! Thanks for all the tips! 🦋❤️
I was just thinking this morning to myself - how no eye primer works for me. It does not matter if it is drugstore or high-end. I thought I was the only one that faced this problem until now. I am so interested in learning more about your eye primer, so thank you for sharing that little nugget of information. 😊
I’ve never had a problem with those blades. My bigger concern is why you kept shaving after the first cut. You had to see blood before you got through your whole face.
Love this look 😍 so good news about your little vofse💞🐶
I have to confess, I have used just a plain old Gillette mens razor to remove facial hair. It's easier than the drugstore "tinkle" razors. To get into tight corners or planes, I use short strokes of the tinkle blade. Overall, I have been scraped, nicked, and cut by the tinkle blade, so the Gillette covers a larger area with less stubble and less nicks. You have to be slow and deliberate as getting sloppy with any blade will result in cuts and scrapes.
I too use the o'l timey men's razor. Never had any problems and get great results!
I just found ya today. I've looked it couple videos. Never have I wore bronzer or highlighter. Scarey! LOL! Since pandemic, haven't put make-up on. I feel I need to relearn how to do make-up. Brows I really need to learn, also lashes. I'll be 50 this summer and they are very thin. Glad I found ya!💜
OMG! I bought a huge box of Tinkle blades and had the same problem with my skin being so irritated for many days. My I got a terrible burn, despite using very light pressure. The serrated blades are dull and unsafe.
Lots of love and healing thoughts to your adorable pup.
Hi Nikol, can you let me know why everyone does colour correcting, concealer and under eye brightening after their foundation. In the old days we always did these steps first. Again another great video for the over forty.
So beautiful and elegant.
I bought a two pack from Revlon a few times. First couple of times was fine. After that I would get scrapes on my face. Luckily I didn’t bleed. Thanks for the tips!
Hi there how're you doing today?
Nikol, you’re right those blade could be dangerous. I’ve been using them with no problems but honestly I am a bit nervous when I use it. I’m going to invest in myself and look into the product you recommended. Thank you for the insight and as always this was a beautiful makeup tutorial. Can’t wait for the heated lash curler to come out for my bone straight lashes. ☺️
I use the Flawless Finishing Touch battery powered shaver. It's actually been a life-saver because it works so well at removing hairs on my chin, sides of my mouth and the 'sideburns' area too! It's much easier to use than any of those blade tools and has never caused any cuts or abrasions. If I didn't shave every so often I would be walking around with literally long whiskers on my chin and sides of my mouth !! I enjoy your videos, keep it up : )
I shave my whole face with a mens 4 blade razor and it is fantastic! No cuts, tons of exfoliation!
Love it 🙂❤️🙏🏼
I follow you and the way you put on your makeup works great on me.
I generally use the pricier Dermaflash tool that is plugged in. You insert a fresh blade each time. I also find it easy to use a regular razor and just make sure to insert a fresh clean blade. And then be careful! Those cheapie tools from the drugstore are useless! I tend to avoid the CT Pillowtalk line, as peachy pink is not terribly flattering on me. I prefer using Naughty Nancy and Sweet Carol. Glad to hear that Francesca is doing well! I completely agree with doing eyes first, as eyes are my best feature and also has the potential for fallout. Great video Nikol! Never miss one.
Beautiful look today!
I agree that they can cut you and are especially dangerous around the thin skin of the eyes while doing eyebrows. I haven't cut myself in a very long time but I ALWAYS pull my skin-taught, plane in the opposite direction of the pull, use a lighted 12x mirror, and do small areas at a time.
Great video! What was the blade you recommended in the video? I didn’t see the link in the description box.
Ok‼️bought some of those blades, but was apprehensive so haven’t used them….and now will toss them in the trash and get the Dermaflash mini from Sephora…thanks‼️❣️❤️
Nikol I did the same thing. I haven’t used it in about 6 wks because of it.
Fabulous!
I use the razors but I always put moisturizer on first then the razor will glide smoothly over the face. Thank you!
I have a lot of peach fuzz on my face & waxing pulls so hard on my skin! I take very small strokes & I’m always amazed at how much hair I get off.
I tried bleaching my own hair. I now have a awful short bad cut due to me thinking it’s ok to do myself. You are absolutely correct do not do it yourself see a professional. Yes it costs more but you won’t end up like me. My puppy has a cone on too so I feel the pain! Have a good day and I love your channel you are wonderful!
Oh my goodness! I've cut my face to ribbons with these.. Several different brands too.. Time to see a professional!
I bought some of those blades and they have worked great for me. Other methods of exfoliating weren’t doing anything for me because I didn’t realize how much dead skin was on my face. It was very surprising especially the first few times I used these blades, because SO much dead dry skin was removed from my face. My skin is much more soft and supple and now absorbs products better. I have only had a couple of superficial nicks because I was going over and over the same spot too much because there was so much dry skin coming off, so now I don’t overdo it at one time. If it ever becomes a problem with my skin, I will discontinue using, but for now I am happy with the results.
I have one I think it’s called “ flawless “ it has a light on it as well I use it every few weeks I love it no problems thus far 🌻🌻🌻
Like the pinks on you. Great look.
I have to say that eye primer is quite possibly the best makeup tip ever and I thank you for it. I bought one from Amazon to tide me over until I can visit a Sephora store and see the products in real life. I’m almost 70 and not very wrinkly yet but the blue-gray eye bags are not one bit attractive on my very fair skin. They make me look haggard even on the best of days. The combo of eye primer on my lids, peachy colour corrector gently blended on the bags, navy pencil rubbed into my upper lash line and a bit of lipstick is often all I need to look like I’ve had a couple of extra hours of sleep. My new 2-minute no makeup routine before housework, yardwork or no work at all.
I used one of those…..like a paper it it doesn’t bleed right away so one keeps going! Well it looked like Edward Scissorhands has gone postal on my face. This was a week before my sons wedding. Never again! 🤗
I had my face done with laser hair removal and now I just use an ordinary razor for any little hairs that pop up occasionally, it was the best thing ever I had done, also had my arms and legs done as well, so no more shaving for me and what little hairs that grow on my legs are so fine that you can hardly see them unless I’m out in sunlight but they’ve come back so fair also which is strange because I’m a natural very dark brunette and had dark hair growth, I’ll sometimes go back maybe once a year for a laser touch up getting ready for Summer 🌺. Great video as always Nikol. 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
I use a facial hair removal cream. It removes hair and exfoliates. It's not listed as an exfoliation product but it does do that.
This video automatically played after I watched a bar soap guy review some dove men plus care body wash I wanted to try. Just wanted to say you are so beautiful. Like classic beauty where you'd be a movie star on any era. Cheers
Thank you 😊
I use the flawless that seems to work. I don't use a dermaplaner
Stay away from those things‼️
Happened to me too
the needle roller thing. I think that can cause a lot of damage too
Hi Nikol I have just discovered your wonderful channel. Where can I buy your cosmetics here in the UK?
Please watch how you use the Gua Sha on your neck. If your put pressure on your major vessels , i.e. Carotid, it may cause a dissection and subsequent stroke.
I always move the razor downward - never up and have not had a problem
I have to admit this trend of using a blade to remove facial hair frightens me, as someone who has suffered for decades with facial hair and had to use hair removal creams and epilators I worry for the long term effects of derma blading. 💐💐
The same issue happened to me with these blade tools. I do not recommend them. The finishing touch round hair trimmer (looks like a lipstick) is what I use and I have never ever gotten cut. Mine is 2 years old already and still works like a charm.
Love them
I use this little device called a HairOff- no blades. It’s like a small sander, like a very gentle sandpaper device. I’ve also used Noxema’s bikini shavers before-blades, but safer than the Tinkles.
Good insight
Honestly, I have used the twinkle razors….I haven’t cut myself…you have to be careful, I bought the dermaflash and like it very much. I do think it is safer but also expensive because you have to buy the razors with each use,
Nikol where do you get the razors that you use? Would like to give them a try. Checked the description box but didn't see it. Thanks! 😊
Yes, Dermaflash is all I use at home.
Oh my gosh, I bought those once. Never again! They don’t work. Dermaflash works and worth paying a bit extra esp if you don’t have time to go to a professional. WAY before it became a thing I was derma planing. I use to use one of those tools that use batteries that are advertised for brows. It works if you’re patient and do little sections at a time. Also found it was safe. At 48 I’m glad I found your channel. I stay away from Instagram & other beauty channels. Funny you mentioned your mom. My mom at 80 uses shimmer and rocks it. She doesn’t look 80. Think I have the same necklace you’re wearing. Is it from Tiffany’s? Used to be a favorite to give as a Godmother for baptism or confirmation gift. Refreshing channel for over 40’s who want to feel under 40 but look appropriate.
Hi May I ask exactly what tool of dermaflash you use and wear to order it. Thank you
Been considering trying dermaplaning, and glad I watched this video. I haven't got the steadiest of hand so I'll look for a well trained esthetician to do it for me. Thanks Nikol 😊.
Oh my gosh- I had the same experience with those things! Scratches nicks and abrasion that looked awful. I have much better results just using a simple man’s 2 or 3 bladed razor on wet skin.
New from Korres…
Apothecary Wild Rose Brilliant Priming Gel-Moisturizer
And a tried and true…
Apothecary Wild Rose Brightening Sleeping Facial
Rose scent on both products is amazing!
I’ve been using them for years, never had a problem.
Girl! If I could afford the dermaflash system, I would be able to afford a facial and having it all done by a professional! I wish that I could have it all done professionally, but I’m stuck having to DIY everything on the cheap. 🥺
Always said, you will love the mascara IF you love the brush!
Have a wishlist from your brand. Lol. Definitely the eye primer & the just peachy corrector. Also thinking about that heated lash curler..
Bought a set of Velcro curlers a long time ago I never used. I recently "finally" got a haircut & decided to give them a try. Found that I love them but unfortunately there were only 4 and I definitely need more. I remember seeing them alot way back but would you believe noone sticks them anymore!? Thought for sure Sally's would have but they didn't even carry them. I'm not much into "ordering", but appears I have no choice. Lol (going to also make an exception to order from your brand. Lol)
Walmart has a set of the Velcro rollers. About $10. I think they call them self gripping rollers or some such nonsense. Good luck!
I saw your video with the filters. Where can I find those?
Agree. I just use a regular razor now- easy peasy
When will the light/medium eye primer be back in stock?
I use the coil you bend and roll - I think it’s called a spring threader. It prickles but it get those fine hairs so well I don’t have to do it but every six months or so. I have sensitive skin but don’t really get much redness which goes away quickly with some calming toner I make: 4 oz. Quinn’s cucumber witch hazel, 10 drops grapefruit essential oil, 15 drops patchouli essential oil, 15 drops grapefruit seed extract. Proven to calm the skin and smells like you are in the spa! The grapefruit seed extract removes bad bacteria that can cause “cystic acne. I also use Grounded Sage activated charcoal soap every morning. The two cured by 15-year painful battle with cystic acne in about 5 months. Their grapefruit soap got too expensive so I made my own calming toner. You MUST calm the skin after the drawing charcoal or you will be very painful with everything coming to the surface. I’ve done this routine for 8+ years and have never had another issue. My face went back to smooth and clear. I have an extremely oily head and dry body skin common with being polycystic. Also, gave up 90% sugar consumption which helped the pcos a lot!
Thank you for warning us about tinkle razors. I thought I was the only one who had problems using them, and I have tried many brands. Every time, I knicked myself, and a few times I got pimples afterwards. The pimples have to be a result, because I am in my 60s and acne is long behind me.
I cut up my face with one of those things because I was careless...and didn't have enough light to see what I was doing. When I was done...I realized I had cuts all over my face. That was 3 yrs ago and I still have dark spot scarring all over my midface from my stupidity. I did the same thing with my dermaroller. Got too aggressive with it and got scars from that as well. Needless to say...I steer clear of all of those gadgets. I'll stick with chemical peels and the "safe" face shavers available to remove the peach fuzz.
@@maureenperez9999 I am so sorry. That is terrible. You may not take comfort in what I am about to say right now. I could not have been more careful with every brand I used, and got the same results as you. I have a little scar at the left corner of my mouth and am almost certain it is a result of one of these razors. I even tried gently on my neck where the peach fuzz is darker, and ended up with a SPECTACULAR and painful ingrown hair and some very persistent pimples on my jawbone. My experiences with these razors, facilitated the return of a micro needling kit I bought and was eager to try. Have a lovely evening.
@@debcollins8231 Thank you for your kind response. The dermaroller was the micro needler I used that cut me up the worst...due to my carelessness. I was using a .50 not the .25 which would have been safer for me. I am notorious for thinking "sharper"...yields better results.
The damage from the tinkle dermaplaner was less...but contributed to the dark spots I am desperately trying to fix now. I had spent well over 150 dollars for "does nothing" products for spots, before I found something that helps. Long road ahead for me.
I hope you are not using the .50. If you are...learn from my story. Don't get aggressive with it and regret it. I am a damn fool.👀🤦♀️ Have a wonderful evening yourself.😊
I use my husbands razor (Harry’s). On line. Works perfect. Be careful. Actually watch your husband shave…he’s the expert
@@cindyhumphrey3065 Great idea. It is much less of an issue since I finished menopause. I just get some waxing done once per month and thankfully, that works well for me. You are so right about my husband being the expert here.
I used one of the drugstore blades. I was careful not to press too hard, my skin was red and burned a shortly after. No blood, but so uncomfortable. Ditched those.
I’m an esthetician that also used to do dermaplaning. I’ve been using the Shiseido blades successfully on myself for years with never a cut. I did recently switch from a dry skin to using with a bit of oil, which I enjoy more. I have heard that the Tinkles design could be a bit more problematic. Who knows? I guess like anything, different strokes for different folks. 😘
Hi BethAnn how're you doing today?
I did exactly the same thing last week and on closer examination I saw that the one end was very sharp and the others didn’t have the sharp edge.I was bleeding all over.😳
I use this product and didn’t have any issues. Use only once and dispose!
Had the same experience with those things - cut my cheeks - threw them out.
Where is the dermaflash ? Not sure if correct didnt see in your list! Thanks
