Talking about your period is never TMI. Women should always feel free to express how they feel about something that is so natural to us. Thank you for all of your information!
@@sergeoh735 the uterus is one of the cleaneast organs inside our bodies. period blood is cleaner than the phone you're holding AND it so precious and nutritious that it's able to generate life, isn't that magical? Just go on if you wanna tell us your poop size
@@marinaluisa9623 I'm fine talking about period, poop and similar thing, but I have to tell you that menstrual blood DOES NOT generate human life (in case you mean other kind of life it's an other story). a woman normally(in the sense of having sex and not by other technological methods) get pregnant when her ovocite met with a spermarozoa and therefore form an embryo which sets on the previously prepared uterus walls. if that does not happen the uterus wall get rid of their "preparation layer" with menstrual blood.
actually I knew dairy , sugar and caffeine are the three main factors that break me out but I still consume these three on a daily bases & oh boy my skin has been crazy crazy for the past month .. this video made me realize that I've been suffocating my body & my skin and I need to stop & regulate my life style so THANK YOU FOR THE REMINDER GIRLS 💞
@@AlineSouza-qm7zl I don't drink milk that often but I eat lots & lots of cheese thats why I break out so bad but I'll try it anyway since I really love almond flavor .. thank you 💞
A few things that have helped my skin improve is staying hydrated, sleeping early and waking up early, exercising regularly, reducing oily /fried food/junk food. Sleeping enough and having a consistent schedule really helps. When I do not get enough sleep or sleep late, I usually have acne the next day. Working out regularly really makes the body feel so good and my skin is definitely glowing after the workout.
I’m a coffee addict and I’ve always had a sneaking suspicion that it’s made my skin worse than it was when I never had it but I love it too much to stop! lol diet is definitely a huge part of why breakouts show up for me
i’ll always appreciate the open honesty on this channel. i love that you all are not afraid to talk about the more “sensitive” things such as periods and NORMAL BODILY FUNCTIONS. it makes me feel like i’m chatting with friends & the tips are super helpful/beneficial!! 💜
I've made some of these changes to my diet long ago, but I'm telling you when I finally stopped with coffee... boy, THE CHANGE. I can sleep now, I don't have as many panic attacks as before and my skin is just CLEAR. Of course I still have some open/closed comedones but, no more cystic acne. THANK GOD. Everything she said there it's true. You guys should definitely try it.
I thought I was going crazy because when I eat anything that has dairy, I also broke out the next day!! I always thought that it was a coincidence (bc how does it break us out that quick??) but I’m glad to know it really is the dairy. But since it effects hormones in general, how come people are SO BLESSED and don’t break out from dairy??
thanksgiving definitely screwed up my skin...and COFFEE. I am heading to the store to pick up some fruits, oats, oatmilk, whole wheat bread, tea and honey to start the next week off well with healthy breakfasts and meals😳 thanks BW
It actually takes 30-90 for a pimple to form! You know how people say you are what you eat, well your skin definitely shows it after a month or so 😅 green tea is amazing at night (if the caffeine doesn’t keep you up) it’s a great detox that I love to do every night for myself and skin. Fresh ginger tea is also amazing!
I've been living alone for 2 months now. I'm cooking my own meals, take care of my apartment and I noticed a change in my live - mostly I've been getting my period(normally 2-6 month break between periods) If people have been raised like me - food is for pleasure and you should eat what you feel like - the road to get out of that way of thinking is long. I still get cravings for sugary and greasy stuff, but I try to not give in So to everyone who lives with their family - try to cook, shop with your parents/significant other to show what you want to eat
I just diagnosed with PCO last week and now knowing you’ve experienced that too gives me sense of encouragement to get better. First step: Healthy Lifestyle. I love you! Xx
More like this pleeeease!!!!! I've been researching recently about this kinda stuff too. I've been vegetarian for about 6 months now, and I've noticed a difference in how I feel, weight, and hormonal acne!!!!
True , my matcha is like ... 30$ for a full tin . But when I feel and look good from it ..Idgaf! looool 🥰 I got a matcha face mask from The Body Shop . I actually do not put my drinking matcha on my face because yess ... it’s 30$ I’m definitely going to drink instead lol but the face mask . I can not complain . Maybe one day I’ll be rich and put tea all over my face lol
I think this is one of the best videos I've seen, I really think that our skin is a mirror of how we are inside, and doing all this changes can potentially change our skin, I'd love if you guys could do a video of the actual routine, of what your favs products are without any sponsorship, just real talk.
hey Fel!! I've been drinking spearmint tea for my hormone regulation and its decreased my period cycle from having it every 34 days to 27 days. There was a point in time where the amount of stress I was going through was prolonging my menstrual cycle. Anyway, spearmint tea Is REALLY helpful with my PMS and my hormonal painful acne! Highly recommend
I love Oatly Oat Milk❤️❤️❤️I can’t drink milk it tears my stomach up. The Dandelion tea help me out a lot with the Lupus diagnosis. I was looking for natural products and my local health store suggested it (Asian owned). This may sound a little stalkerish😂😂😂but I’ve become a little obsessed with Asian health, beauty & nutrition practices. I want to know all the secrets❤️Thanks for this video I’m going to try the Ginger & Rooibos teas as well as the Webberspoon Manuka Honey💯👌🏽😘
I work in an office 5 days a week. I have found that waiting until lunch (12pm) to have my first meal really regulates my body so much. I drink green tea until I’m ready to actually eat. I think incorporating a little bit of fasting ( waiting to actually be hungry) helps me not binge eat terrible foods that throw off my digestion.
oh my soul,i am so glad to have came across your video!the skipping periods thing is driving me insane! thank youuuuuu i am not alone in this. would love another video like this.
Same! I also eat nuts and fermented food with good oil before my period. Just to help my body have energy to shed old cells with Less PAIN!!! you should try it!!!
OMG so get this girl.... I just watched that video as well (RUclips must be recommending it to our “type”) and I started subscribing to the school of “My hormones are all over the place.” So I started reading Alisa’s book and am starting to cut the “caffeine” aka my decaf coffee in the morning. And am trying to only have it when I eat a real meal. It’s hard for me though. Best of luck.
my tea carries 85 mg of caffeine & i started crying when i heard this because when i started using it for school because i carry a lot of work on myself, i started breaking out SO MUCH. i really hope this will help me . THANK YOU!
Also, LOVED this video! Fel is sunshine! She is so cute and quirky. Love that you guys kept all of her laughing and funniness. She's so darn likeable! I got a heapful of good info and a few laughs and smiles! Happy morning!
EXCELLENT ingredients and tea!❤ my grandmother always gave me yeast to eat. But when I couldn't find this kind of yeast chunks in Canada, She told me to use one tea spoon of instant yeast in a glass of water and to drink at night before I sleep. This would help clear my acne and is a great VITAMIN B!❤👍😉 even my dermatologist was impressed with I told her about it. She said yes.... yeast has good vitamins for the face. ❤❤😉
Great video! Valuable content and I love when you girls split up from time to time to talk about skincare it helps focusing :) thank you for this once! 😊
Honestly this video just exposed me. A few weeks ago I went to Woolies and they had so many sales on chocolate that I binged like never before and my skin has never been so bad. I have dry skin but these were proper acne type breakouts on my chin. I'm going to start a month long detox and can't wait to feel and look better!
This was some super awesome information! I think it was the best video yet. It really is refreshing to have a great community for women to discuss somewhat sensitive topics.
I LOOOOVE Coffee. The taste, the affect. But I do know that I shouldn't overindulge in a good thing. In my mornings I like having either a coffee (only one for the day),, a black tea, or some green tea. For food. I like light meals in the morning. Hemp seeds (paleo version of steel oats :3 ), maple syrup, and berries. The best compliment I got was my aunt who thought I was wearing a foundation but I just came from washing my face. Feels great!
This is the first video ever that motivates me to actually eat clean! Thank you very much for the effort you put into making this video! After watching this I decided to try to stop drinking coffee everyday, so the first two days I felt like I'm gonna fall asleep during the whole day. And on the third day I drank coffee and it was much more effective then before. But I also did not feel good at the end. I was much more thirsty. I will try to stay healthy for the rest of this month! Hopefully I'll success! Thank you very much once again! 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Struggled with hormonal acne since I was a teenager and it flared up massively for the latter half of 2019. I’m taking a combination of evening primrose oil and star flower oil and also cod liver oil and vitamin D in the morning and it has pretty much cleared up after months of really horrendous cystic acne. I do genuinely believe trying to de stress your life helps massively, anytime I am stressed I break out along my jawline.
I totally agree with everything you brought out in this video. There is decaffeinated coffee that doesn’t not have chemicals in it. It’s naturally decaffeinated through a process called Swiss Water Process. I’m going to start implementing these lifestyle changes I know it’ll help my whole body. Thank you for the great video :)
I use Agave syrup a lot and it tastes way better than regular sugar in teas and stuff. however I am making sure to eat less sweets and more veggies and healthier options
Caffeine, never knew Caffeine could give you acne. Dairy, and Sugar is a given. I'll also add hydrogenated oils to that list. People tend to add dairy and sugar to their coffee "Caffeine". Wowed at the fact we started our mornings off giving ourselves acne.
Thanks for sharing this. I find if I make a conscious effort to drink water at least 1L a day my skin is better. As before, my usual liquids would be x1 coffee am, then around 2-3 more cups of black tea at work. No water. My skin was probably suffocating. But I'm trying to be my aware and just drink water more and I do see less breakouts! I would love to see a video about travel and dealing with a change in weather. I live in Melb and our weather is temperamental to say the least. We have dry summers. So when I went on holidays to Singapore and Malaysia my skin did not cope on the humidity. It was clogged, irritated etc. I couldn't calm it down the whole time I was there. (Even with lots of water, but we did eat alot of food as well) I even tried drinking those herbal drinks you can get in Malaysia but no my skin did not cope going between humid outdoor temperatures and airconned buildings. Would love a video on that please!
Please remember to make a research about what types of tea you can drink, because for some people, green, black or red tea aren't very good for your health! But tea is awesome to your health and skin if you consume the appropriate type for you, which varies depending on your health problems.
Great video, I already have started those changes and I intent to go on. And yesterday was my entire One Year anniversary of quitting smoking ! Hell yeahhhhhhhhh 👏🙌👍☺️ love your body#careyourbody
Can you please make a video where you explain important ingredients of beauty products? What they do, their functions. Like one video where you explain collagen, peptide, retinol, niacinamide , vitamin e & c, etc. Thank you.
It really works! I’ve cut sugars and dairy from my diet for the past three months and I’ve gotten less and less big bumps along my jawline. And my skin feels great. 😊
Thank you so much for sharing this. I am in my mid 40s and if I have to much diary especially my skin goes crazy. I wish I had known as a younger adult and even as a teenager that these things had so much bearing on my skin. Thanks again!
just a small correction: CYP1A2-1A is not a gene but the enzyme itself that is coded by a certain gene and that metabolizes certain compounds in the liver
Okay true story! I used to hate when ppl would say to cut down sugar and carbs for overall health (probs cuz i knew it was true). BUT i did actually majorly cut down my sugar and carb intake last year (for my weight; i lost 20 pounds!) but a result of that was that my skin got ridiculously better. Like sooo clear. I got so many compliments. Lately though, i've been more lenient and eating a bit more carbs and bubble tea (boba) alll the time! And i've been getting breakouts as a result. The sugar levels are crazy. So yeah. Will have to cut back down. But just wanted to share a bit. Hope this helps! ♡
I have No Caffiene ❌ in my diet. I do not drink coffee or tea....only maybe once a month or once every 2 weeks if I go out with friends. And this has helped my skin remain so youthful and plump at 30.
I once got vegetarian diet for almost 2 years, eating only rice and some veggies (i'm asian, no day without rice). I got pretty bad dermatitis in my face. It cleared up in just 3 months prior to the diet. My skin was so much clearer in that 2 years and I'm suprised of it, because I never really got 100% clear skin. It always have atleast 2 or 3 pimples. The most difficult thing is not eating diary and sugar. Man, those 2 it's like the world's heaven made by god for human stomach.
LOVE this. I love this channel because you guys gather research and science facts together and make it easy for us to understand ❤️ always appreciate your videos ☺️
I love when you bring in the science. I actually have done genetic testing which interestingly enough I get the stress and acne but I’m an ultra rapid metabolizer of caffeine probably why I end up so shaky immediately after!
I tried these 6 months ago and it worked wonders. but lately I’ve been getting my old acnes back, then I realised now that I’ve been eating so much cheese lately. Imma start on my skin diet again. thank u for the reminder! 🙏🏻
Hey, girls!! Can I request ideas for a skincare routine for rosacea-prone people like me? A lot of the common active ingredient suggestions (like glycolic and lactic acid) aren't safe for preventing flare-ups on top of regular sensitivity to things like fragrance and essential oils. Thanks so much, love your channel!
I know that urge- my period is clockwork every month. I usually crave for salty bad food like chips! Then, literally one day before my period, little things will make me so upset. All these symptoms are very fleeting and short live. You're super determined if you're giving up your morning coffee! I look forward to my morning cup of coffee daily- helps waking up and getting ready for work easier. Coffee also have its benefits ;-) Maybe just cut out the night coffee, eat healthy and exercise.
So true! EVERYTHING you said is actually what’s been going on with me the day I have pizza ... I’m gonna have at least two painful huge pimples on my cheeks. Recently I decided to do an experiment and reduce dairy (as much as I can) and carbs... bread and pasta, I’m not much of a sweet person so I don’t really care for sweets. Basically starve my self 🥺. No but really ever since I’ve made the decision I haven’t got any pimples. I don’t think it’s a Coincidence. I’m gonna try and keep it up as much as I can. But thank you so much for scientifically explaining everything 💋
I can approve everything you said! Cut out coffee a long time ago and my big pimples were gone. Since I cut out milk and am using oatmilk instead I can see another improvement 😊 Thank you so much for this video 😘 Love u!!!
Holy shit, it all makes sense now!! I’m also very irregular with my periods, and my skin has been getting hormonal acne for the first time ever the past 6 months, I had no idea it could be due to my caffeine obsession. I’d drink it every day, in the morning and after school, and on an empty stomach. It got so bad that I got a withdrawal headache after going a day without it. Thanks so much for the info, I’m going to change my routine and hope it improves my skin (and cycle lol) ❤️
I wouldn't necessarily recommend using Oatly drinks, I don't know if it's the case everywhere but where I live it's one of the highest sugar-containing plant-based drinks in the stores. It's just something to maybe think about aswell
I started drinking the dandelion chia because I liked the flavor at a friends house, and my acne has been a lot less lately, but I didn't think that it might be the tea til this video so thanks.
just saying this works not only for acne but eczema!! I woke up with eczema on my face everyday for months until I cut dairy from my diet and it hasn't come back!
If you find decaf coffee that was processed via the "Swiss Water Process" .. then you're going to be safe from those chemicals you mentioned. Swiss Water Process is chemical-free!!! ♡
To balance out my hormones, I am taking maca powder every day and I feel like it really helps. I had to switch 3 times between birth control in a year time so my hormones were all over the place, causing breakouts, craving, bingeing ... you name it. The bingeing lead to even more cravings for sugary foods and I decided to just quit sugar cold turkey and eat a lot of nutritious food. It transformed my skin and body drastically!
Can definitely relate to the cheese and the sugar/carbs! When I eat them my face definitely doesn't love me. Need to try to reduce my coffee intake and see I'd that makes a difference! Great video!
I know that consuming daily products on a almost daily basis is definitely one of the reasons to my never ending acne but I can't NOT have dairy products or even reduce the number of times I have them in a week coz my mom says that since I'm still in my growth phase(I'm 15 btw) I need to have milk and all the products made from it and she just NEVER listens to me when I say that reducing these might help reduce my acne a little, I'm simply stating the facts but as most of the moms around the world think, my mom too thinks I'm being "brainwashed" by the lies of the internet 😑😑 Though I've switched to drinking green tea in the mornings now my cystic acne just won't go away no matter what I do, I've had 2 of them above the bridge of my nose, then 2 right below the previous ones, then 1 a little above the tip of my nose, 1 above the wing of my nose, and right now I have 2 right below both of my nostrils, and when I say cystic I mean those HUGE ones like REALLY HUGE ONES
When quarantine started here in the Philippines by March, I started devulging on foods I know will cause me to be sorry later. Foods consisting of cheese (my fav 😭), butter, chocolates, ,processed foods, chips, fried foods and viola.. breakouts 😑
If u break out, get vitamin e from local stores!!!!! It rlly helps with reducing the redness and u’ll glow a little more too. It just make you look fresh and shine. Wish this tip will help someone ❤️

I’m taking a combination of evening primrose oil and star flower oil and also cod liver oil and vitamin D in the morning and it has pretty much cleared up after months of really horrendous cystic acne. I do genuinely believe trying to de stress your life helps massively, anytime I am stressed I break out along my jawline.
I totally agree with everything you brought out in this video. There is decaffeinated coffee that doesn’t not have chemicals in it. It’s naturally decaffeinated through a process called Swiss Water Process. I’m going to start implementing these lifestyle changes I know it’ll help my whole body. Thank you for the great video :)
I use Agave syrup a lot and it tastes way better than regular sugar in teas and stuff. however I am making sure to eat less sweets and more veggies and healthier options
Caffeine, never knew Caffeine could give you acne. Dairy, and Sugar is a given. I'll also add hydrogenated oils to that list.
People tend to add dairy and sugar to their coffee "Caffeine".
Wowed at the fact we started our mornings off giving ourselves acne.
Thanks for sharing this.
I find if I make a conscious effort to drink water at least 1L a day my skin is better. As before, my usual liquids would be x1 coffee am, then around 2-3 more cups of black tea at work. No water. My skin was probably suffocating.
But I'm trying to be my aware and just drink water more and I do see less breakouts!
I would love to see a video about travel and dealing with a change in weather. I live in Melb and our weather is temperamental to say the least. We have dry summers. So when I went on holidays to Singapore and Malaysia my skin did not cope on the humidity. It was clogged, irritated etc. I couldn't calm it down the whole time I was there. (Even with lots of water, but we did eat alot of food as well) I even tried drinking those herbal drinks you can get in Malaysia but no my skin did not cope going between humid outdoor temperatures and airconned buildings. Would love a video on that please!
Please remember to make a research about what types of tea you can drink, because for some people, green, black or red tea aren't very good for your health! But tea is awesome to your health and skin if you consume the appropriate type for you, which varies depending on your health problems.
Great video, I already have started those changes and I intent to go on. And yesterday was my entire One Year anniversary of quitting smoking ! Hell yeahhhhhhhhh 👏🙌👍☺️ love your body#careyourbody
Can you please make a video where you explain important ingredients of beauty products? What they do, their functions. Like one video where you explain collagen, peptide, retinol, niacinamide , vitamin e & c, etc. Thank you.
It really works! I’ve cut sugars and dairy from my diet for the past three months and I’ve gotten less and less big bumps along my jawline. And my skin feels great. 😊
I think I have same skin type as yours! this video really helped me to gain my knowledge about my skin. Thank you Beauty Within!
Dandelion coffee is a great alternative
Sounds exotic. Does it taste good?
Thank you so much for sharing this. I am in my mid 40s and if I have to much diary especially my skin goes crazy. I wish I had known as a younger adult and even as a teenager that these things had so much bearing on my skin. Thanks again!
just a small correction: CYP1A2-1A is not a gene but the enzyme itself that is coded by a certain gene and that metabolizes certain compounds in the liver
Okay true story! I used to hate when ppl would say to cut down sugar and carbs for overall health (probs cuz i knew it was true). BUT i did actually majorly cut down my sugar and carb intake last year (for my weight; i lost 20 pounds!) but a result of that was that my skin got ridiculously better. Like sooo clear. I got so many compliments. Lately though, i've been more lenient and eating a bit more carbs and bubble tea (boba) alll the time! And i've been getting breakouts as a result. The sugar levels are crazy. So yeah. Will have to cut back down. But just wanted to share a bit. Hope this helps! ♡
I have No Caffiene ❌ in my diet. I do not drink coffee or tea....only maybe once a month or once every 2 weeks if I go out with friends. And this has helped my skin remain so youthful and plump at 30.
I once got vegetarian diet for almost 2 years, eating only rice and some veggies (i'm asian, no day without rice). I got pretty bad dermatitis in my face. It cleared up in just 3 months prior to the diet. My skin was so much clearer in that 2 years and I'm suprised of it, because I never really got 100% clear skin. It always have atleast 2 or 3 pimples. The most difficult thing is not eating diary and sugar. Man, those 2 it's like the world's heaven made by god for human stomach.
LOVE this. I love this channel because you guys gather research and science facts together and make it easy for us to understand ❤️ always appreciate your videos ☺️
I love when you bring in the science. I actually have done genetic testing which interestingly enough I get the stress and acne but I’m an ultra rapid metabolizer of caffeine probably why I end up so shaky immediately after!
I tried these 6 months ago and it worked wonders. but lately I’ve been getting my old acnes back, then I realised now that I’ve been eating so much cheese lately. Imma start on my skin diet again. thank u for the reminder! 🙏🏻
Hey, girls!! Can I request ideas for a skincare routine for rosacea-prone people like me? A lot of the common active ingredient suggestions (like glycolic and lactic acid) aren't safe for preventing flare-ups on top of regular sensitivity to things like fragrance and essential oils. Thanks so much, love your channel!
Thank you so much for making this video. Story of my life ! I’m going to try your tips and def get in the habit of eating oatmeal again.
I know that urge- my period is clockwork every month. I usually crave for salty bad food like chips! Then, literally one day before my period, little things will make me so upset. All these symptoms are very fleeting and short live. You're super determined if you're giving up your morning coffee! I look forward to my morning cup of coffee daily- helps waking up and getting ready for work easier. Coffee also have its benefits ;-) Maybe just cut out the night coffee, eat healthy and exercise.
I’m lactose intolerant and don’t drink much coffee or soda (so I’m good with caffeine and dairy) but sugar and carbs are so good!
Wow thank you for making this video was so helpful!!!
So true! EVERYTHING you said is actually what’s been going on with me the day I have pizza ... I’m gonna have at least two painful huge pimples on my cheeks. Recently I decided to do an experiment and reduce dairy (as much as I can) and carbs... bread and pasta, I’m not much of a sweet person so I don’t really care for sweets. Basically starve my self 🥺. No but really ever since I’ve made the decision I haven’t got any pimples. I don’t think it’s a Coincidence. I’m gonna try and keep it up as much as I can. But thank you so much for scientifically explaining everything 💋
Also,.......sage tea is excellent for balancing hormones especially at night👍😉❤
I can approve everything you said! Cut out coffee a long time ago and my big pimples were gone. Since I cut out milk and am using oatmilk instead I can see another improvement 😊 Thank you so much for this video 😘 Love u!!!
Yes! I've been struggling so much with this 😩
I really love youre videos! Very useful and informative 😍😍😍
This was so helpful!!! I took notes! I’m going to have such a healthy December
Holy shit, it all makes sense now!! I’m also very irregular with my periods, and my skin has been getting hormonal acne for the first time ever the past 6 months, I had no idea it could be due to my caffeine obsession. I’d drink it every day, in the morning and after school, and on an empty stomach. It got so bad that I got a withdrawal headache after going a day without it.
Thanks so much for the info, I’m going to change my routine and hope it improves my skin (and cycle lol) ❤️
I wouldn't necessarily recommend using Oatly drinks, I don't know if it's the case everywhere but where I live it's one of the highest sugar-containing plant-based drinks in the stores. It's just something to maybe think about aswell
Thanks for the video! I needed this to help me with my own skincare journey!
I started drinking the dandelion chia because I liked the flavor at a friends house, and my acne has been a lot less lately, but I didn't think that it might be the tea til this video so thanks.
Dairy for sure gets rid of acne a tremendous amount
just saying this works not only for acne but eczema!! I woke up with eczema on my face everyday for months until I cut dairy from my diet and it hasn't come back!
Almond milk cocoa taste the same as regular milk
If you find decaf coffee that was processed via the "Swiss Water Process" .. then you're going to be safe from those chemicals you mentioned. Swiss Water Process is chemical-free!!! ♡
@Munana glorie I'm from west Africa
Actually, acupuncture really helps my period to be regular. I know now when I will get it on the clock! You should try it!
While me watching this on my breakfest eating chocolate brownies and a coffee wow :D
madihah mohamud I see you 😉 Chocolate ice cream for dinner!
you look like twice naeon's sister, who agrees?
To balance out my hormones, I am taking maca powder every day and I feel like it really helps. I had to switch 3 times between birth control in a year time so my hormones were all over the place, causing breakouts, craving, bingeing ... you name it. The bingeing lead to even more cravings for sugary foods and I decided to just quit sugar cold turkey and eat a lot of nutritious food. It transformed my skin and body drastically!
which brand maca powder?
I have endometriosis and I SO appreciate this one!
Fel, do you guys have any recommended introductory resources on Chinese medicine?
I do drink coffee 3 times a day! Even at night, to a point it doesn't have an effect on me I just crave it too! Wow!
We recently had brie cheese at home and I ate A LOT of it and a while later my really bad acne was even worse, but now I probablu know why! Thanks!
Thanks Fel for the tips!! 😀😁👏
The thing that always help me through pms is spearmint tea~ it’s good to balance your hormone and combat with hormonal acne..
What abt peppermint tea could that work
My fav channel ever
I really like Orzo (barley coffee) if I don’t want to drink coffee, and I read that it’s healthy
Can definitely relate to the cheese and the sugar/carbs! When I eat them my face definitely doesn't love me. Need to try to reduce my coffee intake and see I'd that makes a difference! Great video!
I know that consuming daily products on a almost daily basis is definitely one of the reasons to my never ending acne but I can't NOT have dairy products or even reduce the number of times I have them in a week coz my mom says that since I'm still in my growth phase(I'm 15 btw) I need to have milk and all the products made from it and she just NEVER listens to me when I say that reducing these might help reduce my acne a little, I'm simply stating the facts but as most of the moms around the world think, my mom too thinks I'm being "brainwashed" by the lies of the internet 😑😑
Though I've switched to drinking green tea in the mornings now my cystic acne just won't go away no matter what I do, I've had 2 of them above the bridge of my nose, then 2 right below the previous ones, then 1 a little above the tip of my nose, 1 above the wing of my nose, and right now I have 2 right below both of my nostrils, and when I say cystic I mean those HUGE ones like REALLY HUGE ONES
Love this so much! This channel is a little happy place !!
When quarantine started here in the Philippines by March, I started devulging on foods I know will cause me to be sorry later. Foods consisting of cheese (my fav 😭), butter, chocolates, ,processed foods, chips, fried foods and viola.. breakouts 😑
Wow! Great job , very informative! 😘
Love the step up of this video. Like you used to do before. ❤️ Hence watching your video after a long time.
Love you both immensely
I like your channel because you explaine everything with science
Great information in this video and thank you for listing the products talked about
If u break out, get vitamin e from local stores!!!!! It rlly helps with reducing the redness and u’ll glow a little more too. It just make you look fresh and shine. Wish this tip will help someone ❤️
