      Thanks Heather, I laughed out in a loud burst after reading your comment! I've gently fallen asleep many times with Bob Ross's voice on the telly! Lisa is a Goddess. Thank you, so much!

      Is Drunk Elephant really worth its hype?!?! I see everyone raving about it, but is it worth it? do you actually see results after repeated use?

    I'm a licensed beautician and i have to say your channel is much like a PHD study on the subject of skincare. I feel nourished and educated, thank you for your efforts.

    Can't wait to see your best face oils and sheet masks video! I'm so glad I came across your channel in 2016. Learned so much in regards of taking care of my skin😍 Happy New Years Renee and I wish you the best skin health and health!!💖

      Hi 언니! Nice seeing you here too!
      Update us on how the expanded routine is going when you feel like you want to. :D
      I actually am subbing the opposite philosophy of less is more! 화장품읽어주는남자 feels that we should put on what we need and believes in the total opposite of me. He says it's because Seoul is really polluted??

    • @gothamista
      @gothamista  7 лет назад +24

      Lovely Liah! I've been following your channel for a while now and love how authentic, vulnerable and sweet you are. Your are an absolute joy to watch and we share a love for cushion compacts!

    Speechless, i'm speechless. I just turn 30 couple days ago and feel like it is time for me to give some TLC to my skin ( I'm so lazy when it comes to makeup and skincare... too many informations, kinds and types). Watching you like i'm class... lol. So informative and educative. I'm gonna following you FOREVER.

    @vinczemarti 7 лет назад +6

    I was so excited to see your best-in-skincare video!🙂 Before I watched any of your videos I thought my skin was simply oily. After binge-watching your videos I realized I have dehydrated skin and that's why my skin produces more sebum. I changed up my routine and thanks to you my skin became radiant 😄 I trust your judgement on skincare products so this video is just perfect for me. Thank you for the quality content, you became my favorite youtuber in 2016. Happy New Year, have a beautiful 2017!🍾🎉

    • @gothamista
      @gothamista  7 лет назад +1

    @mellisbeauty5275 7 лет назад +4

    So I have to take a quick moment to tell you that your channel is what I was looking for sooo long 😩 I discovered You yesterday and watched the last 4 hours so many of your videos and I Can't stop ! Finally a channel that concentrates on skincare and lucky enough I have sensitive skin,too so I'm taking your advices very seriously :) You know so much and explain everything so good that everyone can understand it. I will for sure use so many of your tips and hope to get that "inner glow" 😍 love your personality also ! I'm excited for your next video and happy that I found you 😁☺️ xxx from Germany

    2016 has indeed been a skincare year for me, it's the year I discovered k-beauty. I know I'm late to the party but I'm there now! It's also the year I discovered your channel and I've been using it as a skincare resource. Thank you for all the great videos - looking forward to more in 2017! Happy New Year!

    • @gothamista
      @gothamista  7 лет назад

      Thank you so much! Definitely not too late to the party, just happy you showed up!

  • @JenniferFarleyPhotography
    @JenniferFarleyPhotography 7 лет назад +33

    Love this! Question - if you're always testing new products, how can you tell which one causes a skin reaction if something doesn't work for you? How long do you wait in between testing new products?

    • @gothamista
      @gothamista  7 лет назад +17

      I test new products one at a time and a skin reaction usually will be noticeable after the 2nd/3rd time I use it. For me, my skin gets very sensitive and can start to sting.

    • @JenniferFarleyPhotography
      @JenniferFarleyPhotography 7 лет назад +4

      Thank you so much! I get acne rosacea breakouts on my chin sometimes, and have never been able to figure out which ingredients are triggers for me. It makes trying to incorporate anti-aging and/or asian beauty skincare products into my routine tricky, especially when I watch videos and so many things look amazing.

    • @jessicasalvador9008

    Renee: I find you to be one of the best beauty gurus on youtube. So happy I found you. Your advice on products is just amazing and I would never have found the products you review on my own. Also I find that your style and approach is very professional and to the point. Thanks!!!!

    • @gothamista
      @gothamista  7 лет назад

      Thank you so much!! Means a lot to me!

  • @meganryan9945
    @meganryan9945 7 лет назад

    Renee I can't express how pleased I am to have found you! My skin type is very dry/dehydrated. I am currently living in upstate NY but am relocating to Phoenix AZ. I am terrified of the dessert climate, and what it will do to my skin! I have already purchased some of the products you recommend and am loving them. After years of spending so much money on empty promises, the products and tips you offer are a breath of fresh air. Your advice on layering "emulsions" has made a huge difference for me. Thank you so so much and keep the videos coming, I just devour the information!

    • @gothamista
      @gothamista  7 лет назад +1

      Thank you, so much Megan! Your comment just makes me happy. I can totally relate to spending a fortune on useless products that are never enough. For our skin type, make up only enhances our problems. When you're in Phoenix, layer aggressively and the right oils will make all the difference!

    • @meganryan9945
      @meganryan9945 7 лет назад

      Gothamista ...yes to the layering! I've been loving marula oil lately but if u have any any other suggestions I'm all ears! Happy New Year!

You're beautiful and the entire time you are talking you're smiling and it feels very warm and welcoming from this side of the screen. Please keep it up!! Also I do have a request if you have any recommendations for sensitive rosacea. :)

    I'm lazy with my skincare regiment ever since I got pregnant. I'm always tired, so I don't bother doing those extra steps to pamper my skin. But every time you upload your videos, I feel so motivated going back to my regime. I envy your flawless skin! Dang pregnancy hormones, messing up my skin. By the way, happy new year!

  • @ikonora
    @ikonora 7 лет назад +2

    • @gothamista

      @doanphuong1325 7 лет назад

      Gothamista Yes, you're glowing skin is amazingly beautiful. Can you please do an updated video on your daily skincare and makeup routine? Btw, I'm so happy you replied.

    Thanks for all your videos, I never missed one since I discovered your channel a year ago. I'm Asian and I enjoy watching beauty you-tubers introduce Asian products which are more accessible to me. I love your taste for skincare and you always make it a point to provide good information on them. Your skin looks so baby soft, plump and glowy! All the best to you in 2017 and I hope you can upload more frequently! Love!

    Have you tried the biore uv aqua rich watery essence? It's THE lightest sun screen I've ever tired. It's sinks in as soon as you apply it and I've never had a better sunscreen

    • @sirenalu
      @sirenalu 7 лет назад +2

      i remember Rene mentioned it in a video for sunscreen, and thats how i found this amazing sunscreen, really so much better than the Paulas Choice sunscreens, coz its absorbed so quickly and perfectly, leaving no white cast, also good for makeup! :)

I am really looking forward to your 2017 videos. Take care and thanks again xxxxx

    A little out of topic, but I would love to see what you wear as well. The cardigan and shirt you have on are fabulous! And those nails too 😉 please list what you wear!

    It really was an awesome year for skincare! (Seemingly one of the ONLY good things about the darn year...) Stand outs for me that I bought on your recommendation were the All Clean Balm, Sum 37 MRCS, and Hada Labo Hyluronic Acid! Love those guys! Other favs skincare wise would have to be Antipodes Manuka Honey Mask (think you'd love it!) Fresh's Seaberry Oil, Cover FX invisible sunscreen, and Lyeska's Siberian Nut Moisturizer! Have a Happy New Year Renee!

    I just want to say that you have changed my skin care game immensely. I will soon be adding some of your recommended products to my routine, but I have just today adopted your philosophy with the few products that I already have (which as of right now is nothing but a very gentle cleanser, simple oil, and moisturizer, unfortunately). When I got out of the shower, I splashed some cool water on my face and allowed it to stay moist, because I don't have a hydrating toner. Then I took a few drops of jojoba oil and gently patted it into my damp skin. Then I patted in a thin layer of my usual CeraVe moisturizer (which is okay, but maybe not perfect for my needs). I think I already notice a difference in my skin, at least initially. I'm going to keep it up!

    Dear Renee, if I had a list of favorite RUclips videos from 2016 this would be my #1. You are soooo talented and knowledgeable that I'm really thankful for finding your chanel in 2016. I just wish you would had released this video before Christmas so I could have had some of this gems on my wish list 😆...Thank you sooo much for sharing and I wish for you and your loved ones all the blessings that 2017 can bring...Happy New Year! 🍾🎉

    Have you tried the Fresh Herb Origin Serum from Natural Pacific? It's apparently a really popular product in South Korea that's supposed to repair damaged skin. Do you think the ingredients are suitable for someone that has oily skin? By the way, I freaking love your videos! I always get so thrilled when I see you've posted a new video.

    • @gothamista

    Happy New Year Rene!!! I love this video! I have a lot of your videos saved so I can refer back to them when I'm looking for new product recommendations but this has alot of them in there. So thank you for taking the time to do this! I only started with a serious regimen in Sept. mostly Korean brands. I would have to say one of my favorites is the Iope Plant Stem Cell Emulsion. It leaves my skin feeling velvety and when I combine it with the Mizon Black Snail All in One cream...by morning my face is smooth and soft. I could go the whole day without putting anything on and my face is still hydrated. Many sick days lately so not just slacking. Anyways, so glad to see a video from you and luv luv luv your nails!

    I'm happy you mentioned mandelic acid, I desperately tried finding some product containing it last year, when my rosacea was in full bloom, but just couldn't. I'll definitely try to grab the one you mentioned!
    A happy new year to you! ❤️

    2017 favorites: That Beauty of Joseon Dynasty cream is one of the best things I've ever put on my face. I have combination oily, my T-zone is like an oil slick, so finding an occlusive that has oils but leaves my skin soft, bouncy, hydrated and NOT greasy? I use it with my oil-free moisturizer from Cosrx (my best Korean friend) and I actually feel for once that the hydration I get from my essences and toner are both boosted AND protected from the cold winter outside. My favorite of favorites is my pore corset serum, which actually has a difference on my pore size but more importantly, reduces the oil production in my t-zone. I also has klairs new toner, and I've just about decided that I don't need to purchase another hydrating toner ever again cuz it's everything I need. 2016 has been good to my face. 2017 will be even better.
