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.

"I admire his energy...I wish he didn't have so much energy" 😂 I felt that.
I do too. I love people who have energy and then I’m like can you please chill 🤣🤣
I can’t stand that guy and his energy. I just get bad vibes from him. 😒
SAMEEEEE exactly how I feel every time someone sends me his videos 😂ughhh
I really can’t stand that dude! I thought I was the only one😂
I use to think he was for real but the more I watched his content and thought it thru I realized he’s just making entertainment not actual life hacks.
DIY exfoliating pad girlie was like "ooh look at that glow" ma'am you slathered your face in oil, even the driest, dry-skinned person out there is gonna look glowy if you just baste them with oil.
“Salt’s never used” I think my skin is still recovering from finding lush ocean salt in high school… should’ve just grabbed the sugar and olive oil😭
Same here!
The idea that DIY skincare is appealing to people because it’s more “natural” and “affordable” is one I’ve heard from several different people, and I’m not saying it’s incorrect… but I just want to add another take that I don’t see too often.
When I was a teenager DIY skincare was a go to because it was accessible. I didn’t have money and I felt awful asking my parents for anything other then the most basic and cheapest face wash. If that cleanser wasn’t working out… didn’t matter, I had to use it up because money was spent on it (this was my own doing BTW, I’m sure if I had asked my parents would have bought me different products. I just didn’t want to be a burden because I knew money was a struggle). When I got desperate (because the one super drying Clean & Clear face wash I had wasn’t cutting it) I would go around the house and grab a little of whatever we already had on hand. Baking soda, honey, lemon juice, olive oil, vinegar, toothpaste, oatmeal, salt- just whatever I could find. I never would have gone and intentionally asked for these items to be bought for the sole purpose of skincare. That being said… I did feel a little guilty for sneaking and using these items for skincare, but I guess I reasoned that the occasional teaspoon of baking soda wouldn’t be missed. Of course my skin didn’t improve because 1. I certainly wasn’t doing DIY skincare everyday and 2. DIY skincare just is nowhere near as effective as formulated products (sometimes it’s doing more harm than good)
But of course, that’s just my experience.
Also not all diy skincare is terrible like a homemade aloe Vera mask. Sometimes it can be fun to make a mask with your friends at a sleep over.
THIS!!! So so true.
I really hear you! When I was a teen I didn't have any money for products from the store but grabbing a little salt and oil or whatever from the kitchen was accessible to me. There was also the instant gratification aspect of it. When I was 15 I'd have had to bike or walk to a Walgreens vs walking across the house to whip up something right away. It was fun, accessible, and something I could do that very moment so it was very appealing
I no longer can justify wasting food on questionable skincare crap. The last thing I tried involved yogurt and turmeric, and it stank so much I had to put it in a little bag and throw it out. Never again. Food belongs in my stomach, not on my face. Plus, a lot of DIY concoctions are terrible for plumbing.
@@maryeckel9682 Say that to the back rows over there. 👍 Plus a lot of DIY stuff don't store well even with refrigeration. The people that got hospitalized during the lockdown due to food poisoning in my place spiked, and a surprising number or them were DIY skincare mishaps (why on earth they have to reuse a homemade yogurt and honey mask and store it in the ref to use on their housemates, just WHY).
It terrifies me to hear people using straight ACV on their face because when I was a young teen, I used it on a cotton pad for a few days to remove a skin tag on my back. I completely lost pigment where I let the ACV soak on my skin and the pigment still hasn’t returned after 10 years 🥴
brb I'm going to test that on one of my moles /j
Love the expression on James’ face during the egg, gold leaf, etc. insanity. 😂
Doesn't the person know how to separate an egg? It's all so fake. Nobody just cracks an egg on someone's face.
So about that pimple patch video. That tiny little needle is called a lancet. I think the use is... just a little bit correct. If you have pimples that have the "eye", that white spot where you can visibly see the pus, you would lance the "eye" so there's an opening for the hydro-colloid patch to draw out the fluid from inside. I wouldn't recommend this for cystic acne or pimples without that "eye", or lancing the inflamed skin around the "eye".
Edit: Also please please please sanitize the area you are lancing with a sanitizer. When I was a nursing aide we use a brown liquid, povidone-iodine (Betadine wound solution) on and around the area.You do not want to lance on an unsanitized area and introduce more bacteria.
When I was in my freshman year of high school I started to get a really big angry acne nodule. I was so terrified of going to school with that on my face, and I had heard about the apple cider vinegar thing in a magazine. I soaked apple cider vinegar on a paper towel and held it over my spot for around 20 minutes, adding more anytime the towel started to dry out. It completely burned through the top layers of my skin and gave me a chemical burn. I woke up the next day with a giant deep scab, and still have a scar on my cheek to this day, though it is faded now. I don’t use acv on my face anymore.
Noooooo! I did something similar as a teen before going to a music festival, except I used magnesium sulfate on a pimple on my chin AFTER I'd already picked it to death 😩 It totally burnt the skin, I still have a web-like scar like a decade later.
Oh no! I don’t blame you. I have always had cystic acne and was terrified of going to school as a teen when I had a giant cyst on my face. I would have done anything to get rid of it!😢
@@lillian_space : oh nooo! 😏😓😭
To squeeze something as you describe: this is' always the biggest Mistake! Only Open a "ripe" Pimple, be carefully and extremely hygienic, with Alcohol and supergood washed Hands and Fingers, and then take a tinytinytiny Dip of Stuff you want to use.
Nothing with rubbing, SQUEEZING a.s.o.!
You can put a tiny Dip of Honey, maybe also of Garlic, but then: never touch it till it is gone! 🙏
But today it's to late for give Tipps like this - Time are so changing!
@@jennavidal585 : I can understand you perfectly! My Cousin had one Time an enormous big fat Pimple on the Tip of his Nose., such a terrible big one I have never seen before and after!
But at this I was to Young that I could help him...😏😓😖.
The immediate eye roll at that home made pimple remedy guy!!!😂😂😂
My mother told me one time that she just uses baking soda as a deodorant so I tried it and gave myself a chemical burn...thx mom.
I can confidently confirm that lancing a pustule prior to putting a pimple patch is BOMB. In esthetics school as well as working in the field, we’ve always been advised to lance them for easier extraction and it should only create a passageway to minimize the amount of stress you would put on that area while popping it. One of my dearest senior estheticians practices this method and has the best results from her clients. ❤
What’s lancing x
@@daisyluvv7905 prick or cut open with a lancet or other sharp instrument. Look up lancing pimples on RUclips
the last video be like "it made my skin go from unfiltered to filtered" lmao this is why I despise tiktok skincare stuffs
That egg/gold facial looked violent. 😮
I was like WHAT IS HAPPENING 🤣😭
I puncture my pimples with a diabetes lancet then put a pimple patch over it. I think that kit is way over priced! You can get a whole box of lancets and pimple patches for waaay less than the kit costs.
My thoughts exactly! TBH it looks very similar to diabetes lancet ;)
I’m an Esthie and you can honestly just buy a stainless steel lancet in a extraction tool kit that can be used over and over & than just keep those patches on hand. I’d maybe include a spot treatment. But definitely no need for a kit. Just a tool that can be reused & sanitized with alcohol some spot treatment and a patch. Definitely better than picking so if ur gonna over spend just get a facial lol
“We don’t want to be putting mold on our face!” Thank you, James, for this PSA 😅
When I found out that Aldi sold ACV with the mother for £2 a bottle I was chuffed to bits! I'd been paying up to £16 a bottle until then! I love the stuff on salads, even on my chips instead of malt vinegar.
Shaved underarms is more delicate than unshaved. Try alternating shave days and exfoliating days.
hi James! Love ur skincare videos . They really inspire me!! As a boy who gets hated on for doing skincare + some makeup I rlly love how you are sooo inclusive!!! keep doing what u r doing !!!
If there is one thing that never changes, it's that kids are horrible. Lol, I'm just kidding, not all kids, but enough of them to make school a crappy place to be sometimes. Don't let them make you give up your interests. You could make a career out of this interest of yours or just a lifelong hobby that makes you happy.
That's a lovely dog in your profile pic btw.
@@littleboots9800Thank you so much you are very kind and I totally agree. and the dog in my pfp is my little ray of sunshine
NO!!! That makes me so sad! We LOVE a boy who is into skincare and makeup! Don't listen to those haters: I'm a queer mama (44) and I completely support you being you and doing the things you're interested in. Keep being you, follow those interests and try to pay those haters no mind. All my love and support!
@@noodlepoodlegirl
I feel sorry for the person who used glycolic acid under their armpits because I did the exact same thing and got the same result 🥲 I’ve now switched to using the Cerave salicylic acid face wash as a body wash to help with body odour and it’s been a lot gentler and safer for my underarms💖
Cerave makes a salicylic body soap too! It's cheap and easy to use.
ohhh never thought of this... thx for the idea
If I did the oil & sugar one id be covered in my dogs hairs in no time at all 😂
Yes! The struggle of tryna enjoy some nice, relaxing skincare, while also sharing a house with dogs & cats…within minutes, I’m back in front of the mirror, tweezers in hand, trying to find all the pet hair that’s already stuck in my moisturizer😭
@@missdenisebee 😂😂 I relate to this so much 😂
As someone with 4 cats, 2 are part rag doll, who are currently shedding their winter coats… I feel this deep in my soul 😂
@@akane9959 😂😂 yes! I have a rescue boxer & a pug, both could have a rug business with their shedding fur 😭😂. Our pets are so worth it though 💚
& those pesky almost invisible pet hairs that get stuck in your eyelashes... ugh
A bottle of apple cider vinegar takes forever to use up tho, cause you use so little in the recipes that needs it, so maybe people started putting it in DIY skincare just to avoid throwing it out lol
11:35 They really be acting like they're just icing a cake. 😂 Omg James' reaction after this tiktok was absolutely priceless! 💀
Gagging everytime I see people making skincare out of food and thinking of the bacteria growing 🤮….especially as I’ve just got over food poisoning and thinking what it did to my insides!
I sometimes get like cystic acne brought in by hormones, at a certain point it get SO painful, my boyfriend has a box of like diabetes tester needles same as the kinds in that video, and honestly I have totally used them to get those horrible deep pimples out, I have never thought to put a patch over but will for sure try next time and see if it makes a difference in healing/darkness.
A lot of nurses in the comments have said putting on a pimple patch helps keep it clean, so it’s probably a good idea to add that step!
DIY skincare was understandable back in the early 2000s. Good skincare was expansive and not readily available in some places.
Nowadays supermarket is expansive. You can get decent drugstore skincare for good prices, but pretty sure supermarket won't be cheap. Not to say of the risk of messing up even more your skin.
Now on the pimple patches, the idea puts me off immediatly. My skin is very sensitive, my pain tolerance very low, and the pimples hurt, last thing I want is a needle anywhere close.
Because of you, I have fallen in love with the Ordinary’s glycolic acid as an underarm treatment to keep smell away. I do it twice a week. I am getting older and deodorant alone isn’t doing it for me anymore.
Same!! I watched a video where he mentioned this a few months ago and since then it's been my holy grail for BO. Personally my skin is pretty robust so I do use it every day before my deodorant
I use CeraVe's salicylic acid body bar. It's just really convenient!
I think the lancet idea could be ok as long as you’re careful and you know how to do it cleanly, but the thing that bothers me is the packaging. They say they’re sterile needles, but the second you open the bag and grab one, the rest are no longer sterile. While I know this is less wasteful, I wouldn’t really trust it unless they were individually packaged.
I haven't used them, but it looks like each lancets has a cap, so presumably those keep the needles sterile after you open the bag.
I believe what the Smacne kit is using are sterile lancets, diabetics use them for glucose testing. Some of them have a very tiny gauge (size) and that is what dermatologists or estheticians may use for very careful extractions. It can be done safely if the area is sterilized first and then just gently opening a closed comedone or whitehead. Then immediately putting a patch over, which will soak up the fluid. This actually does prevent bacteria from spreading or potentially making a blemish worse from squeezing and makes scarring less likely. But it's specifically for white heads, not like, closed, deep, cysts.
Seen many a dermatologist prick a pimple, it breaks the skin that might have built over the /blackhead/whitehead/pimple allowing what's inside to be removed easier, so i'd expect what ever is in the patch has quicker access inside and its cover over it to protects it too. Id say you'd need a magnifying mirror to get the right place to prick it though.
I'm with Kellie - "I admire his energy...I wish he didn't have so much energy." YES!! I could never use anything with vinegar anyway, because I would not sleep...I would spend the night vomiting!
Personally, I sometimes only apply sunscreen in the morning, if I know I'm not going to leave the house much. I.e. today I spent most of my day in the bathroom with small, frosted windows that are facing west, cleaning it, and therefor didn't really have much sun exposure. As soon as I'm going to leave the house, though, I use a timer to reapply every two hours, in conjunction with long clothing and a sun hat.
11:25 had me rolling…. when you finished aesthetician school at 16.58, and booked your first client for 17.00 😂😂😂😂
Idk about the needles thing for acne... But I have found that when I gently pop spots (which are "ready") they heal quicker and honestly the PIHP is exactly the same as if I'd left it anyway so... I usually do pop them. 😂 I would imagine that using a little needle is better than squeezing because you're creating a small, uniform hole whereas with squeezing you're applying pressure and it's potentially going to "rupture" unevenly and cause more damage? Which would lead to more scarring/redness? So in theory I think it sounds like an optimal way to deal with spots. I'm not an expert though so my thoughts could be complete garbage lol.
😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮
I gave up on trying to not pop acne a long time ago. My skin is so thin, they pop at the slightest pressure anyway when they're "ready", and I prefer to handle them myself rather than waking up with crusted pus on my face. One time my dermatologist tried to "clean" my neck and chin with all those sterile tools and gloves and shit, and 99% of the spots re-created a pimple in 24 hours, which doesn't happen when I do it, so I don't even care about all those tools.....2 Qtips are enough for me lol
Professionals can use a needle to lance a pimple but I don’t believe it should be done at home unless you have a sharps container
Through my education in esthetician school, The world of skin care steals from food and such for ideas of that ingredient does do, Yes. But like he keeps saying it gets formulated then regulated to be able to be used on the skin.
Glycolic acid can cause irritation to melanated skin because the molecules in glycolic acid are smaller than other acids. The smaller molecules penetrate rapidly and this can cause the skin to have an inflammatory reaction. I would recommend lactic acid for melanated s.kin
I 100% would not trust the Tik Tok lot with that Smacne product 😬👀
I saw the notification for this video at around 3:00 AM EST and I happened to be awake so I wanted to watch it but it was "private" 😅
I was able to watch it before it was privated, so I wonder what changed
@@amandareynolds8930 i think he just posted it on the wrong time ☻
“it’s a ceramide cream let’s not get too excited” 💀
20:15 in my opinion I think this pimple popping product can go horribly wrong. And just for a smaller less visible pimple the next day? Pimple patches alone already do that… so I don’t think it’s very safe.
I always learn something new or have experiences validated by the information you provide in your videos James - Thank you! Your reactions to some of the videos/tik toks..priceless
The only thing I've ever used apple cider vinegar and honey for (besides cooking) is a hair mask to dissolve build up and soften my hair. It worked got *me* but I would never tell someone to use it on their face!
Honey is really fine. We use it in the UK on wounds in hospitals to prevent over use of antibiotics. I had honey dressings on a leg wound, 2 weeks honey, 2 weeks silver, repeat. ACV has also shown promise in wound treatment for lowering the bacterial load, its the acetic acid. I would be wary of it on the face but watered down should be ok.
DIY isn't my thing personally but many foodstuffs are used medically. Oat baths are still recomended for eczema by doctors.
For honey if using on the face I would use a jar only for cosmetic purposes and only dip into it with a spoon that's sat in boiling water or a disposable scoop. I get that commercial products are often better but some ppl don't have access to these products cheaply.
@@littleboots9800 Problem is the real stuff costs big bucks and most honey you buy on the store is cut with so much stuff in my place. So yeah, store bought honey is out of my skincare list.
@@littleboots9800 i don’t think most of these people are being anywhere near that careful with their honey
@@lithiumkid I mean its just honey, it's unlikely to grow anything bad on it, it's naturally antiviral, anti fungal and antibacterial. It might not do much but it's unlikely to do any harm even if they're not using a clean utensil each time.
Okay so I just recently started watching your brother Robert Welsh, and I had no clue he had a twin brother. I was thoroughly confused when this video came up in my recommendations, saying his viewers also watch this channel😅 but I can say that I’ve enjoyed this video a lot and will also be watching your videos too!
Also, must add. Best ever recommendation from James-Erborian CC cream (“Clair” for me) I did’t believe that each of the three (soon to be four) shades would work on multiple shades and tones. But I tried it on my mom who is about 2 shades darker (but still well into the fair or light category) and is olive toned, while I am a very rosy cool undertone. And “Clair” suits us both, perfectly. It’s very light coverage, but evens out your skin tone, and leaves an lovely luminous finish. It also had great skin care properties as well, run, do not walk to get this product. It’s hard to find, but well worth it, and pretty reasonable at about $40 US and a little goes a long way.
❤️i'm so addicted to this Channel😂
James you are amazing...your voice, sense of humour, perfect!
Fun fact: Once used a regular lip balm that had a plumping affect on my lips. Why? Didnt realise it contained cinnamon in the ingredients list (I am allergic). Yay burning swollen mouth.
Cinnamol is really common in cosmetics and a big allergen.
@@maryeckel9682 I found this out the hard way. It also happened with a facial sunscreen and it burned my face. Since those incidents I now check any and everything for it.
the popping one is bad because keeping those "sterile" needles in a ziplock bag isnt sterile. u will need to either clean them with alcohol before every use or have them in individual packaging. either way i feel like its unnecessary especially since theres room for error.
You're amazing, and you've done everything you could. Don't feed the FA trolls. If she wanted to have a conversation, she would have taken you up on that offer. You rock!
Just my thoughts on the Smacne product... probably not bad, but absolutely cheaper to just go to a drugstore & buy a box of lancets intended for glucose testing, then just use any available pimple patch. They're absolutely marking up the cost of those lancets.
"...and it will disappear!"
*James eyes rolls so far back they are never seen again*
It’s going to be a good day when I can get ready with a fresh James video 🥰
About the chemical exfoliating in the armpits: Sweat doesn't smell, the smell is from bacteria under the arm, chemically exfoliating it will help remove the bacteria, just be sure not to use it too much, since it can damage your skin😊😉
Could attest to the lancing of the pimple "eye" for those hydrocolloid patches when it's protuding and easy to access - I used to pop them only at that stage as my face skin tends to get angry with too much squeezing. Now I just leave them alone and use salicylic acid spot treatment if needed. Buuuut wouldn't say no to lancing if it is possible. Disinfecting the area is a must though - I use povidone-iodine (marketed as Betadine here, but there are other brands).
I think there are pimple patches that have microdarts in it (I think Dr Jart was it) so that may be an option.
Also, Illiyoon makes some nice ato ceramide moisturisers - not too heavy compared to Cerave Moisturising Cream (although Cerave as a hand cream though). Their ceramide ato concentrate cream is also pretty cheap too - around 600PHP for 200 mL of product. (£8-9? Though my source has it locally so minimal shipping costs) Using it as a retinoid buffer and with such a hefty amount, it's pretty economical, plus my sis and mum enjoy it when we do our night routine together haha.
I’m trying to become a “proper adult” with my skincare now…but all of this crap is so confusing and overwhelming. There are just too many products, routines, options and misinformation out there.
Any chance we could get a beginner friendly “dummy proof” video guide to skincare??
😂❤
I would recommend Lab Muffin as he said. She is a literal cosmetic chemist and can break it down really well 😊
@@sianmilne4879 yes! I was so glad he made that shoutout- I immediately subbed to her! 🙏❤️😁
He just did a great one! Was it a response to your comment? Maybe!
Most basic of basics is just a cleanser, whatever serums you believe would benefit your skin, moisturizer and sunscreen. Plenty of people to explain what actives (in the serums) will do what better than I can, but it depends on your concerns. Then you can add in an exfoliating step once or twice a week, start small and gentle, percentages don't need to be crazy high to be efficient. That's, I believe, the basics? 😅
Limit your actives to one in the evening and one in the morning. I don’t layer a bunch of serums. Night: Balm/oil cleanse, water cleanser, moisturizer, retinol. AM: cream cleanser, vitamin C, moisturizer and/or suncscreen.
My fav series yessss
I've been using the illiyoon Ceramide ATO Concentrate Cream for years. I have dry, mature skin with rosacea. It was reformulated and is more occlusive, so when it gets warm, I only use it at night now. I used to use it day and night, the tube is 200ml and very affordable! Many blessings!💖💖💖
The honey, baking soda and vinegar one is bizarre.
Sodium Bicarbonate + Acetic Acid, as any small child who has done the old volcano science experiment can tell you, produces Water, Carbon Dioxide and Sodium Acetate. Sodium acetate has a few uses - we would often add it to bacterial growth media in the lab as a carbon source, and apparently it can make concrete last longer somehow (no idea how that works, that's really not my area, tbh). Sodium diacetate is also the flavouring in salt and vinegar crisps and the substance in those reusable gel heat packs that turn white when you click the metal widget (cool, right?).
What any of this is supposed to do to heal your zit, I have no idea😂.
I got a chemical burn from Native deodorant. I thought it was just the scent, so I tried a different scent. No different. So I guess I got two chemical burns from Native deodorant.
Me too, it is likely from the ph level of the sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) which is the active ingredient. It took months to get the baking soda smell/texture out of some of my clothes as well...
the shoulder stroke/hmmm at 00:56 is my new "bless their heart"
I mean...you can just get more towels and wash towels more frequently. I only use my towels twice before washing them and I haven't had any issues. I hate getting wet cotton all over my face and creating more garbage.
Guys, if you have discoloration under your arms it could be a medical problem. Early stage diabetes, certain metabolic diseases etc can darken the skin under your arm. Always check with a doctor if you dont have a specific reason as to why it got darker, like a slight burn or such.
James be looking so snatched today, so happy and healthy I can see it.
Agree with the recommendation to view Lab Muffin Beauty. She clearly explains the science of skin care and helps you make informed decisions about products.
I love her 💕
Love Lab Muffin!❤
James thanks very much for doing this video i’m always curious about your fingers going into jars and stuff like that so it’s good to know please take care ❤x
2:26 Argan oil is my favorite! Face and hair ❤
I really do enjoy watching these James😊
And the other one where people take manufactures to court over silly things 😂
It must take you a long time to research it all
But I’m very thankful for the hard work you put in 😊🇬🇧
James please review this ad I keep seeing for the glittery oil sunscreen. I think it's gotta have basically no SPF.
Do you mean the Kopari Rose Gold?
Ah yes, mix apple cider vinegar and baking soda to end up with some bubbles, salts and water perfectly suited to your skin.
19:52 😂you can use those patches by themselves and they will work just as well
I tend to use witch hazel with calamine lotion to dry out a spot works wonders xx
Perfect timing x🎉
Idk if I’d trust that smacne thing just because you’re breaking the skin barrier and that opens you up to infection. I do use those micro dart patches with salicylic acid. It breaks the skin barrier too, but not nearly as aggressively as basically a push pin 😅
It's a lancet. Aestheticians use them all the time when giving facials.
@@laurac2385 yea, professionals lol
The needles are tiny and likely much more sanitary than fingers are, especially if you have long fingernails. I used to use the sterile syringes in my clinical medical assistant practice kits (to pop pimples!).... Now I use tretinoin.😂
Hi from Switzerland 🇨🇭 Love all your videos James ❤ good job 👍
Salut! 😁
The slow blink after the energetic guy 💀 😂
Most AHAs and PHAs can help with deodorizing. There is a fairly popular “natural” deodorant from Lume in the US and it uses mandelic acid as its primary ingredient. Works really well, but I also never use it the day I shave - when I forget and do, there is a lot of regret.
I freaking love Lume. Between the exfoliation and how easy it is to completely wash away (no waxy or water-resistant ingredients), it's eliminated HS from my underarms. It's been about 3 years since I had a flare-up in my underarms, so I started using AHAs in other areas and it's been at least a year since the last flare-up anywhere. I had a mild case to begin with, but I'm still seriously impressed.
Pyrex glass, is that what you were thinking of with regard to the ice globes?
“I don’t know what the fuck was going on there” hahaha I felt the same way and had the same facial expressions as you!
Love these videos….💜
I've been using the Naturium AHA body wash twice a week since autumn and was able to stop using my deodorant. Tho now that the weather is getting warmer I have started using an antiperspirant again. Highly recommend that body wash
I thought I was having deja Vu or just going crazy....but no I definitely saw this video last night before it disappeared 😂💜🖤
James you and I literally had the same look on our faces with that diy pimple remedy. Lol!! 🤦♀️
"Bless him." Vicious!
You also shouldn’t use the glycolic acid with deodorant especially the spray kind.
James is 100% hilarious
I feel like the Smacne thing could become the new TO AHA/BHA Exfoliating Peeling Solution. I can see people poking spots that definately shouldn't be poked or not cleaning the tools and their face well enough and then complaining on social media about how the product doesn't work and gave them an infection.
during DIY vibe, amazon wasnt existing yet. Yesstyle wasnt that famous and wasnt reviewed as much as today. Iherb was great but deliveries issues. Aroma zone explosed at this time. Because finding a good product a this time was a real struggle for skin and our wallet. Nowadays, we got access to stabilised and balanced K Beauty product for same price as organic food product. Thanks time has changed :)
Yesss great timing as I'm eating my noodles 🙏🏻
Another thing about using towels, etc. that you wash and dry; Even if the towels you use are clean, the detergent and fabric softener, etc. can be a severe irritant to your face. Skin on your face can react differently to detergent than skin on your body. Towels can also be rough so take a look at what you use when washing your towels. Something you can do immediately to remedy irritation is to not use fabric softener on your towels. Use detergent to clean them and that’s it. Fabric softeners tend to stay in the fabric and can be very heavy with fragrance so your skin may react poorly.
re: pimple popping vid
not a medical professional, but sister and i both had/have really severe acne and she got a bunch of pimples drained at the dermo's office. i wouldn't try it on cystic acne/acne without a white top, but they use a sterilized single use lancet(the little needle thing the person uses in the video), and they dont puncture straight from the top down, i guess to avoid going too far and damaging healthier skin beneath the pimple? and they went in at more of an angle/from the side.
i've read that you can also use diabetic blood sugar testing lancets, as they are also sterile and single use, and come in huge packs that are probably much cheaper with various gauges/thicknesses and lengths. make sure your lancets, whatever brand or type, are within their sterilization expiration dates (yes that is a thing!!!) and also a labeled sharps container is a must too! one of my medications is a sub-cutaneous injection, and i bought a sharps container at my local rite aid where i pick up my meds (walgreens, cvs, other pharmacies, etc should all have them too, they should be with diabetic supplies!) so that it is correctly labeled with like biohazard/sharps warnings labels and all that. when it's filled, i am pretty sure i can take it back to where i got my medications, or to my doctors office and the folks there will be able to properly dispose of it.
i'd also probably wash my hands super well, wear single-use gloves, clean the area that will be lanced first with like betadine or an alcohol swab (alc swabs are what i use for the above mentioned medication), and not use cotton pads/wool/balls to clean any drained pus-- that sounds like both asking for infection due to non-sterile packaging and for fibers to get stuck in there, and just general irritation. maybe use like individually packaged sterile gauze pads or non-stick wound pads?
I’m so sick and tired of seeing people mix an acid and base and saying it will do stuff for you 🗿
I use acid toners under my armpits too. And as long as I do use this no odor develops. The low pH gives it an environment that will hold back bacteria growth.
“I don’t know what the fuck was going on there…” Same😂😂😂
