So glad it's working for you! Just be careful, I've had things work for awhile and cause no irritation, but after some time, it gets to be too much. But if it's working, keep doing it! Just pay attention to your skin, and good luck!
I think the fact that it's mostly k-beauty and gentle is why it isn't insane- I also have overproduction of skin around hair follicles and pores so I have to rely on the AHAs and BHAs much more than most would need.
@@mimmy131100 I'm a huge fan of the Some By Mi Cica Gel, Differin Benzoyl Peroxide Cleanser, Zymogen Luffa Cylindrica Cleanser, Beauty of Joseon Ginseng Essence, and I've recently gotten the I'm From Fig Cleansing Balm, that feels like heaven and melts everything with little to no coconut! I also use Jojoba oil daily, often another toner or two (RN it's Some By Mi's Super Matcha Toner). Also Aloe gel, just straight up and mixed into the Cica gel...and one of Acure's Retinol serums. And sunscreen, of course, although I haven't found the perfect one for me yet.
Cassandra, I'm a new viewer! I've been going on a binge and just love how transparent you are and how much you've been through and how entertaining/informational your videos are. Vegans unite :)
I know i'm a (straight) man so I stick out abit here but I do appreciate all the help, I realized I kept looking up a ton of "beauty" tips and keep ending up on your channel so I just subscribed and am gonna be active here tbh.
I'm so happy that I found your channel, because I use your advices and buy your recommended products that are available in my country. But I also watch people that are from my country, and I use the knowledge that I've gained from you to assess if the product that they're recommending is actually helpful for my skin or not... So I'm very very very grateful to have come across your channel ❤❤❤
I'm using a propolis Korean serum + a fermented bifida serum too wich help with skin barrier ect and since I sticked these 2 serum my skin are more 'cleared' my pimples are less there, and if I got some they left more faster, the post inflamated mark left more faster too, my rosacea are better too and I also take antioxidant supplement, that really saved my skin! So I totally agree with antioxidants for skin issues
I did go to a dermatologist, and all they prescribed were drugs that have horrible side-effects on your body. There was no face wash, lotions or really on depth like Cassandra describes. Maybe I got a bad one or something. She did do blood work though.
if you see her again, you could try to ask her to explain the science to you. if she won’t, it’s a red flag she isn’t passionate about her job. something they don’t tell you about med school is you don’t get to choose your specialized career. if you want to be a neurosurgeon, you can put in specific requests, but if you don’t get what you asked for, they might just throw you into dermatology and you’re stuck with it for the rest of your life. those doctors won’t give the best quality care if they can’t learn to love it.
Hey Cassandra! Love from India! I love watching your videos! Please do more reaction videos to regular people's skincare! I watched one on your channel sometime back. I can't remember the person's name but it has been my favorite video so far!
Hi Cassandra! Can you make a video about hypopigmentation? I had some laser procedures done and I did TCA Cross in the past and it left me with a bit of hypopigmentation. My skin pigment is kind of irregular in some spots. Thank you
I would LOVE your opinion on Medik8 vs Sunday Riley Retinol. I’m thinking about trying one of them but I’m not sure if one or the other or both or just a waste of money
Good morning Which custom skincare products do you recommend. For melasma, wrinkles, droppy eyelids, sagging skin. In other words to have or try to have flawless skin without melasma
Do you have any info on brown-ish pigmentation around the mouth? I have olive skin. Is that hyperpigmentation or a natural occurance due to my skin type? I can't wear liquid foundation because of it, around my mouth then looks like it has a gray undertone if I do. Also, thanks for the info on azelaic acid!
U should try mandelic acid then / Azelaic acid is more for helping the red mark from pimple and help to remove it (to remove it more faster - the inflamation who cause the skin to get the red mark from it) But if u have hyperpigmentation around your mouth, probably mandelic acid can help while exfoliating really gentle without cause you an weird discoloration, also I had the same thing as u but I'm a very fair ppl, around my mouth it was more 'pigmented' kinda weird gray sht, and I use a propolis serum and the numbuzin softening pore serum and it's definitely helped with my acne, discoloration, rosacea and all my sht acne problem (the pore softening serum use fermented active who actually help with redness - pimplemark, help with skin barrier and so help with the 'pigmentation' of the skin, make it more '' clear '') and propolis help the same way too, + fighting acne too ~ I have the iunyk propolis serum ~
And I'm also taking supplement antioxidant for my skin! Definitely helped too with my overall condition skin too / and obviously don't forget your spf too!
Try looking into Inmode Lumecca laser treatment. I did 3 sessions and it took away my hyperpigmentation. Make sure to check out at least three different providers because they shouldn’t be charging you a large amount of money for such a small area. Look for someone that is experienced and will charge $200 or less per treatment depending on your area. If the pigmentation is really bad after the three sessions, try looking into Morpheus8 microneeedling. I had large pigmentation on my forehead from not wearing sunscreen in my early 20s. It was such a large area and extremely dark that I used Lumecca IPL then waited 4 weeks and did the Morpheus8. My skin is completely clear of hyper pigmentation! Now I’m just dealing with hormonal acne lol 😩
Good morning . I'm 56 years old. I have combination skin, I have wrinkles and melasma, and my skin is starting to drop, especially on my neck and eye lids. Can you please help me and recommend products that I can use in a daytime and nighttime routine. Everyone says that at my age, I should be using growth factors, vitamin c, renaldehyde, and hyralonic acid. Can you please help.
Try to use the the ordinary pycnogenol serum and a fermented skincare who gonna boost your skin barrier and taking acid hyaluronic - antioxidant (with green tea ect on it) supplement too
As we age, our bodies don't produce collagen as much, hence skin sagging. Retinoids and VitC will help to boost your skins collagen production. UVA will destroy your skin on cellular level, so sun protection is a must! Also things like red light therapy, radio frequency treatment and ultrasound treatment (hifu) can help with collagen production. I've used retinoids and Vit C for a decade and swear by them. Another favorite ingredient is co-enzyme Q10.
It varies from person to person. Some people have more enzymes that trigger conversion and some have less.Anecdotally I notice side effects (small dry skin patches) within a couple days of trying a retinal (beauty of Boston). Roughly the same time that it takes me to see side effects with encapsulated low dose tret.
I see acne as a good thing because it's body detoxing in action as the system pushes stored toxins through the skin... The problem is that some of these toxins are sharp with a glass-like composition, which ends up wreaking-havoc on their way out and leaving terrible scars behind (my case) Been suffering with it my whole life and studying alternative nutrition since 2018 and now I feel I got enough expertise to try some stuff... That's the thing I wrote I want to talk to you on that other vid: it can be through email if you want!
I love you, but I don’t love Agency. They work with Angie from Hot and Flashy and she photoshops her tretinoin results, and then Agency uses her photoshopped results. I know tretinoin works, but why use someone who is blurring their skin in their pictures. She’s deceiving her many many followers. It makes Agency look bad.
thank you so much for explaining these different types of acne fighting ingredients so diligently, I appreciate it so much as an acne sufferer c:
Not me using Benzoyl, Retinoids, AHA, Ginseng, Green Tea, and BHA all on the same night. Sounds insane but my skin is happy and clearer than ever!
O.o' Dafk xD

Keep advocating for sunscreen use, Cassandra!
Omg I just looked up “cassandra bankson acne red marks” looking for a video about this from you and you just posted this! 😂 thank youu 🙏🏻
I just soaked my face with olive oil, gonna spend the whole dawn with it on... Gonna see the results in a few hours ❤
Thanks for the great video! I really like the Peach Slices Azelaic Acid for my rosacea.
I haven’t figured out the best retinoid for me just yet.
Hey Cassandra! Love from India! I love watching your videos! Please do more reaction videos to regular people's skincare! I watched one on your channel sometime back. I can't remember the person's name but it has been my favorite video so far!

I’m already using Tretinoin but I’m still so red but azelaic acid is the itchiest thing I’ve ever put on my face 😪
I would LOVE your opinion on Medik8 vs Sunday Riley Retinol. I’m thinking about trying one of them but I’m not sure if one or the other or both or just a waste of money
Just started using good molecules retinol 1%. What’s your opinion? Good? Or no

Does anyone know how long it takes for Retinal with an A take to turn into retinoic acid in the skin?
It varies from person to person. Some people have more enzymes that trigger conversion and some have less.Anecdotally I notice side effects (small dry skin patches) within a couple days of trying a retinal (beauty of Boston). Roughly the same time that it takes me to see side effects with encapsulated low dose tret.
How long time should I wait after retinol before aplying moisturizer? (I have no patience 😇)
Until the moisture as been absorbed a bit ~ 10 to 30min
Can i use Azelaic Acid with Tretinoin? Please help.
My dermatologist told me yes. But keep in mind you should patch test each ingredient prior to using.
Zinc oxide is way underrated

Sulfur does not have much data for acne, please stop perpetuating that 😩
