It would be good if you did a video naming what you feel are the products you have changed each of these products to…those of us who used some of what you are no longer using would like to know what you replaced with….
They keep running sales though. I got a full size product yesterday with a 20% discount yesterday from them. Might be something to look into if you feel like it
Prior to this past year or so the only skincare I really did was moisturize (and I’ve done this after my nightly shower since my 20s) and try to cleanse….always with drug store products until the last three years or so when finances allowed me to try some better brands. Still, they weren’t really doing it for me. Then I discovered layering. Game. Changer. K beauty products and use of appropriate actives for my skin type has saved my skin. Especially starting my routines (twice daily) with several layers of hydrating/soothing/calming toners and essences! What a huge difference! I’m proud to be a certifiable skincare junkie. I’ve got so many products and I’m always trying more. I love a longer routine now that I have the time and inclination to care (lost a bunch of weight over the past 18 mos so that’s largely what jumpstarted my vanity about skincare) For me, skincare is my makeup. I rarely wear makeup. Plus I’m in Alaska where nobody gives a crap what you’re wearing or what you look like with or without makeup on🤣 Tho I do enjoy a few luxury brands (looking at you La Mer 👀)
I used to really love Pacifica, some of their products have worked really well for my skin and hair and I support their philosophy. But I stopped buying their products because they discontinue everything! I got tired of looking for replacements so now I just avoid them :( I wish they would find some staples and stick with them. Constantly changing seems like an odd strategy for a skincare company. I’ve been using Purito’s Oat-in gel cream for a couple of years now and it’s one of the only moisturizers my skin tolerates! I hope it sticks around. My holy grail before that was a Pacifica gel moisturizer that they of course discontinued 😂
The PURITO scandal honestly shouldn't be attributed to them as a brand. In fact, they owned up to it gracefully unlike other brands like Keep Cool and KRAVE Beauty. The problem was their manufacturer, GreenCos, was changing the formula after getting the SPF rating approved. Just like Kolmar's popular SPF formula that BOJ, Round Lab, Skin1004, etc. uses, many brands also used this same formula from GreenCos. ALL these sunscreens were basically overvaluing their SPF rating, and that just includes PURITO. PURITO's sunscreen just happened to be the most popular one like BOJ's is today (which uses Kolmar's formula), and is the primary SPF they tested, so they got the most backlash for it.
You look absolutely stunning!! I know this is random but could you share your nutrition and workout routine? Whatever you are doing it’s really working and I’m struggling 😢
I really wish you would review the Jordan Samuels skin care brand. It is a small independent brand that is moderately priced and cruelty free, filled with excellent ingredients. Please show your support for small indy brands, by reviewing their product line. I think you will be pleased, as I have been. Thank you, Gayle Appleby
I've got a ton of their products, I know I've mentioned them in some videos but I can't remember if I've done a full review of them yet. I've got something big planned to support the Indie brands coming in 2024.
@NOBSBeauty A review of Black owned skincare brands for the face. You have quite a few already like Topicals and Beautystat. Putting them in one video so it's information easy to access ❤🙏🏽
About purito, i think u r too strict. If you read about the story it wasn't purito's fault exactly. It could have happened to any korean or japanese brand. In addition to this, the whole scandal makes this brand even safer since it has been under the microscope from then on
I agree. Purito acknowledged what happened and made steps to correct it. I couldn't ask for anything different. They have some great products so it's not a company I think should be written off.
I expected to see the G&G C-glow, 🤣. I just bought the Hygge serum, can’t wait to try it. My routine and products have definitely changed over time. I try out toners, essences, creams a lot more than serums. Perhaps my most consist step has been a mixed antioxidant serum every morning. Ascorbic acid serums are tough for my sensitive skin to tolerate and back in the day there really were only expensive versions. I started using Paula’s Choice resist antiox serum 25 years ago. Eventually the price climbed higher than I wanted to pay and I found the Skinactives antiox serum. I’ve been using that pretty consistently for at least 10 years. Somewhere along the line I added the timeless CoQ10 serum w matryxl 3000. They’ve been the core of my am routine for years and years and I don’t anticipate changing unless I find equivalent products that are a better value. I buy the large 4 oz version of both of those. Just this year I added Stratia’s lipid gold, 1 pump morning and night either on its own or mixed in w a cream. I’ve been looking for a consistent ceramide source since I started reacting (just a little) to cerave pm when they reformulated. My sensitive skin seems to love it and I imagine that will stick around for a long time.
Forever loyal to Stratia Liquid Gold and Clinique moisture surge. Neutrogena pink Grapefruit Wipes for exfoliating. Using bottled water to wash my face is the biggest thing that helped me with texture.
I saw that lab muffin Recently recommended the new olay super serum as a convenient one and done type product. I looked to see if you had done a review on that 1 and couldn't find it. I wonder if you've tried it and what you think of it? It's a little pricey but if I could get it on sale I'm looking for something that doesn't have added botanicals and fragrance because that's what irritates my skin.
@@Rebecca_Dolanthat scent is amazing. Like I hate fragrance in products, but omg that scent is addicting. It’s like… light floral candy maybe? But I do love the Super Serum. It’s my favorite product of the year

Awesome! Please make another one for Toner and essence as well.Trust me, I kind of watch your video before I purchase any toner or essence! ❤❤❤
Kinda shows you can’t be too locked into using one skincare product for too long cuz there’s so much change & unpredictable factors involved . . .
Prior to this past year or so the only skincare I really did was moisturize (and I’ve done this after my nightly shower since my 20s) and try to cleanse….always with drug store products until the last three years or so when finances allowed me to try some better brands.

Loved this video! Would love to hear what other skincare you used to love and have since moved on from.

Agreed. They corrected the issue and now we should actually trust them MORE

I get my pacifica vegan ceramide at Amazon all the time
LOVE your nails! Thank you for this video your skin is amazing 😍
I've noticed a lot of First Aid Beauty products are no longer available, I really wanted to try their oatmeal face mask :(
This is why I use Korean skincare, less likely to be bought off

Make sure you get the night version of the super serum then because the regular one has fragrance!
@@Rebecca_Dolan Oh thanks for letting me know! Have you tried it?
@@pajamamama5965 I haven’t, but I’m interested in the night version! I’d use it during the day though.
