3 minutes in and I'm wondering where the hell were you when I was in undergrad??!! If only all of my organic chem professors had have made it so relatable...
Honestly thank u so so much for these videos! We need more youtubers and knowledge like yours to be spread out into the mainstream and not propaganda that comes from companies. I’m a nutrition instructor and I love skincare science! ❤️❤️❤️
I just discovered you, and I am SO happy I did! As a grad student, I so appreciate your approach (and all the references you include!). I’m big into skin care, especially since developing pretty severe adult acne, but I’m frustrated at the lack of reputable and science-based skincare information out there. It’s hard to trust advice from profit-oriented companies whose social media and blog posts are written by people with no actual formal education on dermatology or a related science.
Thank you so much for sharing these precious informations for skin care nerds in the learning ! This will help me know if I really need oils in my skincare . I'm currently using tamanu oil and rosehip seed oil .
Is this why retinyl palmitate is pretty ineffective compared to other forms of Vit. A? Thanks for your informative videos! I appreciate your commitment to myth-busting.
I experienced this video in precisely the same way a toddler experiences a bowl of porridge. Previously, I thought I was supposed to eat the covalent bonds. Then a whole new perspective opened up, only to be ruined by socialisation. Now, I NEED one of those molecule thingies.
@@LabMuffinBeautyScience Ha, ha, that's so true, Michelle. I love Sacha Inchi oil and I tend to apply it neat, but lo and behold: after about 20 minutes, a fishy smell exudes from one's skin. In the beginning I kept looking around, as to what could I have touched but quickly realised that my hands were the "culprit". So yeah, fatty acids making fun of me...
This is so cool! I remember drawing all these in 10th grade in organic Chemistry class but never realized that it's so easy to use the knowledge to make your skin healthier! Great video, thank you so much
Hi Michelle, could you please explain why you say that triglicerides are not broken down, but in the third study ceramide linoleate was increased after application, so it means that the acid was released from trigliceride... Or not? Thank you
Finding your channel was like finding a hidden gem! So much useful information presented in a such understandable way. Thank you for all your hard work :)
Good info. This is presented from a skincare perspective, not medical/medicinal perspective. So like you said, everyone should do more research, for their interests.
Hi there! Love your site, and this is the first video f yours I've watched. I consider myself pretty smart, and did quite well in biology and chemistry classes...and though I feel like I understood the actual content of the video, I'm still left a bit puzzled as to the conclusions and how they can be applied to real life... So do you recommend oils on acne-prone skin? What is your personal conclusion about people using oils on their skin in general? I've found it totally ineffective. Some people claim oils improve the quality of sebum because of various composition proportions, but if I understand correctly the studies you mentioned ...say...stuff...Still confused! And oil alone as a moisturiser just seals dryness in, it needs water and a humectant underneath to be truly effective. Love, Olena
IMO it really depends on your skin - if your skin is dry, then oils can help. Linoleic-rich oils can also contribute to linoleate ceramides in the skin, which help with dry skin as found in the study on borage seed oil. Your skin does also produce water and humectants, so for some people just an oil can work! I personally have dehydration-prone skin so I use extra hydration underneath.
Ty Michelle! My guy has atopic dermatitis & after trying EVERYTHING the only thing that worked for him was regular sunflower oil. Now you've explained why & I'd like to know what components in sunflower oil become ceramide & how. But I have normal to dry skin & also benefit from sunflower oil! Why? I use rosehip oil at night. However my BEST "oil" is squalane & again I wonder why!
Dry skin has disrupted oil production, and your skin loses moisture fast. Oils seal your skin so the water can't evaporate that easily. Squalane has the most similarity to human sebum.
It's likely to be the linoleic acid part of the sunflower oil - if you look for linoleic-rich sunflower oil, or use a more linoleic-rich oil in general, it's likely to work even better! A lot of sunflower oils are made for eating, and nutritionally oleic-rich ones are better, so you may need to hunt a bit... Different oils work for different people - it's hard to say what will work best for sure! Personally I like sunflower, rosehip and squalane.
I wanted to start using face oils so I'm really glad I found this video. One question though: From what I understand, you need to put on your skin care in this order - serums, creams, oils. So I just purchased pure Rosehip, Jojoba, and argan oils. Should I use one at a time to see if my skin will tolerate them, and then mix them together after that? I'm most excited about the Rosehip, bc I have a lot of scarring. I already tried the Argan and broke out immediately, probably bc it was so thick. I've used oil blends with argan and been fine. It was probably just too much. I'm not sure if I should mix anything into the oils. But I was tired of buy super expensive, tiny bottles.
The Carl Sagan/Neil DeGrasse Tyson of skincare science!! Thanks for all the work that you do, Michelle. Would love to hear your take on F.C. & the SimpleSkincareScience phenomena (eg how oils, esters & fatty acids interact with malazessia folliculitis).
I know your channel focuses mostly on topical skincare, but can you perhaps do a more in-depth video on the effect of dietary fat intake on the skin, and whether or not it has any significant effect at all?
Coconut oil is a great cleanser - don't leave it on acne prone or combination skin though, patch test! As for oleic acid, no! I hate that, it breaks me out. Fractionated coconut oil is now clear and runny as opposed to solid at room temperature and white in the case of virgin coconut oil.
This is making me think of that new cream called Adipeau. The founder, Ivan Galanin, claims the cream contains oleic and linoleic acids capable of traveling down the hair shafts on our face to the hair root, which is near our subcutaneous fat. So the cream uses our hair follicles/pores to bypass our stratum corneum. Then the black ginger root extract in the cream contacts our fat cells to firm our facial fat. He claims his cream increases subcutaneous facial fat. I don’t think Galanin is any kind of chemist or scientist, but I think he’s worked in pharmaceutical development for years. But I don’t see how this cream could work. I would think the hair shaft fits tightly in the follicle and would prevent substances seeping down the hair shaft to our subcutaneous tissues. I would love to hear an actual chemist, or any other qualified expert, evaluate the theory of this cream.
Wow! this is very exciting and a lot of information. Let me ask you: could be use the Paula's Choice Oil cleansing that contains oils on skin as a first cleansing on mature with sebaceous filaments on nose? Thank you for your answer.
Great content! Learned so much! So how/where does one access a free FA (as opposed to one bound up in triglycerides in a lipid oil)? Forgive me if you mentioned this in the video and I missed it.
Recently I’ve been watching your videos and I’m very grateful you take the time to share your research and knowledge! Especially about sunscreens as I had zero knowledge about them and about oils. May I ask you which oil you would recommend using ? I’ve tried argan rosehip and Marula oils. Are any of these beneficial? I’ve always believed argan oil helped with my acne issues as shortly after I saw a huge improvement but maybe this was a coincidence and I was growing out of my acne phase? I also used retin a few times a week but that alone didn’t work as well. And I was terrible at moisturising. I literally use to hate anything on my skin! (Now I’m obsessed with skin care )
Thanks for the explanations. Oils always break me out, so I generally avoid them. But I have a fragrance allergy, so perhaps it’s connected. I had another question. I know rosehip seed oil and cacay oil have vitamin A, but can our skin can use it, similar to tretinoin?
Coconut oil doesnt do anything antibacterial on my face whatsoever unless your saying it causes purging. It creates cystic acne on me; however in soaps in hands it works fairly well.
Thanks for the video! Have you heard of or tried the Paula’s Choice RESIST Omega Serum? It has free fatty acids, I wonder if it would be worth adding to my routine.
Love your channel. I’ve read that dimethicone is bad for your skin and can cause cancer. Would you consider doing a video about this ingredient. This ingredient is in everything. It’s been difficult for me to avoid.
thank you for this record its very helpful and we are manufacturing soap ,i have serious doubts on sodium salts blocking skin's sweating pores.is sodium oleate and oleic acid perform differently on skin barrier
I just discovered your channel by chance and it's very informative! Keep up the good work gal. BTW, I've been starting to use Rosehip Seed Oil at night for a couple weeks now and I feel like it helps reduce my sebum during the day. But now I know it's not. It's just my imagination only!!! LMAO
Thanks, that was brilliant! I know your video was on oils in skincare, but I'd like to ask about what you mentioned on the saponification process in soap-making. If sodium hydroxide breaks down triglycerides into free fatty acids, how does that make soap? I guess I am wondering why soap made of only lye and oil works as soap.
The salts of fatty acids (i.e. if the H+ ion comes off) is actually soap! I have an explanation of it here: labmuffin.com/make-your-own-soap-part-1-the-chemistry-behind-soap-making/
What are your opinions on oleic acids for dry, non sensitive, non acne-prone skin? I've been using skin care with camellia oils and it seems that my skin is softer and more hydrated but it could be other ingredients in the product causing this. I've been researching which acids will be most effective for keeping my skin hydrated more effectively and help strengthen my skin barrier throughout the day as I have 12 hour work days as opposed to the average person working 8 hours a day. I also work in an environment that is more polluted, so I'm hoping you might have some insight as to potential options. Thank you for the wonderful information!!
I’m new to your vids you have some good info this is Excellent video and break down!! Cerimides are good in skin care yes? as we age we don’t produce them and I think they can be over looked at times CerVe have them in and hyralonic acid also I think there a good brand I’d like to know your take on them and products? There very affordable aswell. But yeah A lot of these studies were done on the forearm or back of the participants in question and as you said we produce different oils and bacteria on our face and other parts of our body which is a bit crazy I understand they maybe didn’t want to cause a reaction in the ppl doing the study but a lot of these studies frm then up until the 70s and further on is what created the comedogenic scale and as far as I’m aware most of the creams brought out were based on studies which were done MOSTLY on people’s back neck and arms and is a bit silly as they said they were safe for our face were everybody knows is a totally different ball park In Regards to skin width elasticity and bacteria etc..Were more bacterial beings then Human!! 👍
Thank you! Do you recommend applying oil on my combination skin to hydrate or are there better alternatives? Does oil only hydrate the surface on my skin or gives deep hydration? My skin looks tired and dull and I WANT GLOWY SKIN!
Hahaha! I think they're not super useful for organic chem except for understanding stereochemistry, or learning a concept for the first time... but they're fun! ;)
Not sure if anyone will see this, but here goes: For the naming of omega-3/6/9 fatty acids, I understand that "3" means the double bond occurs at the 3rd carbon atom...but why is the carboxylic acid not carbon 1?
Greek letters denote how far it is from the principal carbon, so alpha means the first carbon next to the carboxylic acid carbon. Omega is the last letter of the Greek alphabet, so it means they're counting from the other end i.e. the carboxylic acid is the final carbon.
Hi, Michelle, I dunno if I understood the last part. Are you trying to say that for example, that if I use Flax oil to moisturize my face, which is rich in α-LA (Alpha Linoleic Acid) that it won't convert readily to be free fatty acids ? Am I wrong in understanding it or that you mean it's all the microbiome that it depends upon? Kindly, revert.
there are some chemical with main ingredient. Such as,-peg75, polyxoyethylene lauryl ether, glyecerol sterate, disodium edta, Certryl alcohol, mineral oil etc. Why these things also being used in the treatment? Is it possible all of these can make any thin layer on hair which prevents water reaching to the hair?and can these stay permanently on hair?
Can you please review mad hippie vitamin c serum. What their website says sounds good to me(it's in the stable form with other good ingredients as well). Also heard a lot of it on skincareAddiction on reddit. Please review if possible!!
Hello! I have acne and blackheads prone skin but my skin feel super dry! Probably dehydrated. But I did this test 'Wishtrend' said to do where you wash your face and wait an hour then put little oil sheets all over to see what type you are. It gave me dry skin. Can this be right?
Rose hip oil reduced my oil production but Long term use made my nose area rough and dried out? Could it rlly be because of the retinol content? That’s bizarre to know
How do people with oily acne prone skin get fatty acids onto their skin without blocking pores please? If I put on oils I get acne if I use oily free the skin Is deficient in linonaliec? Acid. And you seem to suggest that oils can’t really deliver this anyway
You'd need a product that contains free fatty acids - for example, Paula's Choice Omega Complex contains linoleic acid as "linoleic acid" in the ingredients list.

Yay! Thank you, I am very biased but chemistry is the best science ;)
This was really helpful and accessible to non-chemistry/non-biology wizards like you, so thank you very much for this thorough explanation.
Hahaha! I would not classify myself as a wizard but I'm glad I come across this way ;)
THANK YOU for your videos! In the chaos that is the skincare industry, your voice is what I need to make an informed consumer decision. 😘💕
Thanks so much! I really appreciate the compliment :D
Honestly thank u so so much for these videos! We need more youtubers and knowledge like yours to be spread out into the mainstream and not propaganda that comes from companies. I’m a nutrition instructor and I love skincare science! ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you! It's so encouraging to hear that there are people out there who appreciate this type of content :D
I live for this level of detail!!! Incredible video 👌👌👌 I think you're the only RUclips channel I've seen that breaks down the science like this!!!
Thank you! :D
So sciency, love it

Thank you! I'm so glad you're enjoying my nerdery :)
SO in love with your science-based approach to skincare! THIS IS MY KIND OF CONTENT
AMAZING WORK! I've always thought the more oleic acid, the worse the oil and never thought about the triglycerides.
Thank you! I think that's a very common misconception so you're definitely not alone :)
Love this, your channel was recommended by James Welsh and I love the science behind skincare!
As a spanish speaker with a very low english,was hard for me to understand.but the conclusion was clear.thank you michelle.
Michelle, you rock!
Wow, this must have taken a lot of time to research, kudos to you!
Thank you so much!

They don't taste the best to be perfectly honest! Plus mine are covered in hand-dirt.
Now this makes me want a serum with free fatty acids, so that I can get the linoleic acid goodness in my skin. Thanks Michelle.
Me too! I've heard they tend to smell bad if they have too many though... I think Paula's Choice has one with low concentrations.
What will you use in serum ? please reply
@@LabMuffinBeautyScience Ha, ha, that's so true, Michelle. I love Sacha Inchi oil and I tend to apply it neat, but lo and behold: after about 20 minutes, a fishy smell exudes from one's skin.

All it took was for her to speak science and I subscribed and never saw this channel before

Another excellent video, thank you!
Okay, that was a bit complex, and I’m not sure what the final message about oils and one’s skin is.
Does azelaic acid decrease the FFA on the skin? Is that a good thing or bad?
Michelle, is coconut oil in particular a good choice for a moisturizer or would it be better to opt for a product from a skincare company?
I appreciate this video so much❤

Does omega 3 and GLA produce natural oil in skin if it's dry?
Does face oil used in the morning under your sunscreen degrade the sunscreen's effectiveness? I haven't been able to find good direction on this.

I wonder if I had some of those molecular models, I would have had an easier time with my organic chem exam. :P
Hahaha! I think they're not super useful for organic chem except for understanding stereochemistry, or learning a concept for the first time... but they're fun! ;)
Haha, yeah. Let's just say it was my least fav subject at uni :P
My favourite fatty acid is linoleic acid 👍👍

Watched it, studied it and the ingredients in what I have... this was so much fun!
I have fungal acne, does it mean I have to avoid triglyceride? Thanks Michelle xx
Awesome!
Rose hip oil reduced my oil production but Long term use made my nose area rough and dried out? Could it rlly be because of the retinol content? That’s bizarre to know
Safflower has the most linoleic acid
How do people with oily acne prone skin get fatty acids onto their skin without blocking pores please? If I put on oils I get acne if I use oily free the skin Is deficient in linonaliec? Acid. And you seem to suggest that oils can’t really deliver this anyway
What do you think of Argan oil in haircare?
what happens with napthalene and palmitic acid?
I bought Trilogy Rose hip oil + antioxidant on amazon. Is it still effective? Also, i have oily acne prone skin.
Yep! Just don't expect it to be an amazing source of linoleic acid.
Lab Muffin Beauty Science which oil would you recommend thats then, if you dont mind recommending 😀
Thanks for the very informative video! I have the same question. What would be the best sources of fatty acids, pls?
You'd need a product that contains free fatty acids - for example, Paula's Choice Omega Complex contains linoleic acid as "linoleic acid" in the ingredients list.
Love you videos 😘
Thank you!
is it true that some skin will get irritated when using skincare contained phytosterols
Fuck I love this! I finally got it! Thank you!!!!!
I found someone sell almond oil soluble. hm I that think might be great for my dry dehidrated skin
