Wanted to get the conversation started on dehydrated skin! I think a lot of people confuse it with dry skin, especially during the winter! Hope this video was helpful!
I've been doing skincare the last 2 years. Only time I can tell that my skin looks better is when I wear makeup which I only wear 2-3 times a month. I'd like to know if my skin is healthy. I'm oily but I've always had decent skin (genes) but I'd like to know if I'm progressing toward healthy.
Susan Yara I am very curious about Mario Badesco skin care. I use the peptide renewal cream, buttermilk moisturizer. & the CeraVe hydrating cleanser. thats all. I don't hear much about it. would love to by Susan.
If you feel like you’re drinking a lot of water and then just peeing it out you probably are drinking too much water all at once. Your body can only use so much water at one time and it’s going to get rid of the rest. The key is to drink small amounts many times throughout the day. That way your body always has the right amount.
My mother once told me about 'water therapy' which means drink one/two glass water every 2 hours throughout the day. It doesn't work well w me coz i tend to pee all day n it bothersome. BUT!! I found my own way to rehydrate my skin which i started w drink 1 glass of water right after i woke up then prepare this huge 2lt bottle, fill it w mineral water, carrying it everywhere, n every time i feel like thirsty, or fell a little sour on my mouth, or start to licking my lips, i drink a little. Maybe just 2-3 gulps. In average about 2-3 gulps every half an hour i guess? And it works really well for me. Finishing the same amount of water with my mother's method, but much less peeing throughout the day. Like my body could really absorb all of the water little by little. Been doing this for almost 3 weeks now n yet it changes a lot to my oily-dehydrated-acne prone skin. Will continue doing it since it also makes my body feel more refreshed n less fatigue. P.S: i still drink other beverages like tea, coffee or even carbonated drinks! But eventually my body doesn't crave them as much as i like before i started this therapy.
Realizing that my skin was dehydrated despite being more on the oily side was a massive game changer for me. It made such a difference in the way I treat my skin.
@@hibaaziz3706 I introduced several light layers of hydration, like face mists and toners. Not necessary, but for me far more effective than one serum that tires to do it all. And then a gel that contains some emollients to finish things off.
@@DoctorAnne Drunk Elephant Protini, I have the travel size version so I figured I'd try it out. I really like it, though I really don't like the price. I like the Clinique Moisture Surge, but it's dimethicone based which gives me pause; it's still the only moisturizer I've found that keeps me mostly not oily in the summer though. I do also like the World of Difference moisturizer from Origins. I want to try the Belief one that she mentioned, I've heard really good things about it.
go to a dermatologist. Listening to her isn't going to help you because even though she's great and makes wonderful/entertaining videos, she's not a medical perspective. If you have overactive sebaceous glands cause ++ sebum leading to closed comedonal acne, then how is she going to help you? In fact you might be mis-diagnosing yourself with it all together.

Hey Susan! Maybe you could do this for oily skin and dehydrated skin?? I’ve been told several times that actual only skin isn’t as common as people think
Ay Macarena Hi! Susan’s description and advice for dehydrated skin totally work for oily skin as well! 😊 Because, like she said, dehydrated skin is a skin condition that can happen to all skin types.
Ay Macarena if you find you’ve got a lot of oil production try adding in Niacinamide to help regulate sebum production. I added into my routine and it has changed my skin
I heard that the origin of “alkaline water” was that scientists found mineral rich water to be very beneficial, and that the minerals made the water more alkaline. People took this to mean that the water was beneficial because it was alkaline, rather because if its high mineral content. Basically if you want the benefits of “alkaline water,” drink water that’s mineral rich, not water that’s been electrically or chemically treated to have a higher pH.
Susan Yara yep, dehydrated and acne prone skin is very often deficient in zinc, selenium and magnesium. Taking these minerals is helpful, but it’s easier for the body to absorb the minerals when they’re dissolved in water or extracted from food. Dark greens like kale have these minerals in them, and eggs are high in zinc. I’m currently researching the best ways to absorb these minerals... Btw I’m a huge fan!!
I use to have hella oily skin, but I realized it was because it was incredibly dehydrated and producing more oil to compensate. Now that I have an actual skincare routine with a good moisturizer, my skin makes less oil! Still glowy, but not a disco ball.
Yes, fine lines are usually because of dehydration, esp. on younger people. Thanks for talking about too much botox way too soon. Dry skin also needs hydration before moisturizer. That’s why Korean skin care routine works so well both on dry and dehydrated skin. Dry skin also needs hydrating toner/essence (like Isntree Hyaluronic Acid Toner on damp skin), hydrating fragrance free serum (Hyaluronic acid or Peptid serum). And then good moisturizer to seal all that hydration on the skin. For example Cos RX Honey Overnight Mask and La Roche Posay Toleriane Ultra Nigt work wery well w dry/sensitive skin.
Robbie Curbo My faves are Isntree Hyaluronic Acid Water Essence and Iunik Vitamin Hyaluronic Acid Vitalizing Toner. Iunik is more like moisturizing, soothing essence than toner. Great for dry/dehydrated/sensitive skin. And Isntree Hyaluronic Acid Toner Plus is also super hydrating essence/toner. All are made from good, clean ingredients and fragrance and cruelty free 😘
Do you have fine lines in the inner corner eyes area? Is it because dehydrated skin too? I just can't seems to get rid of it no matter of how many eye cream i put in there.
LRP Toleriane Cleanser & CeraVe Night Cream has been awesome for my sensitive/dry/dehydrated skin. I would definitely avoid the other recommendations as they are loaded with sensitizing ingredients.
When I figured out I had dehydrated skin (as well as dry skin), my life changed. I couldn't understand why I was breaking out and still had serious flaky/textured skin when I was layering up the occlusives and oils and totally discounted those gel type moisturizers because I was like "there's no way those lightweight moisturizers are enough for me." Now I layer a HA essence and a gel-type hydrator under my heavier, moisturizing creams and my skin has NEVER BEEN BETTER. Also most of my acne went away because my poor skin was so thirsty it was trying to hydrate itself but overproduced sebum to do it.

I’m 22 and have been seeing fine lines for about a year now. I break out more, thought I was getting rosacea, and many other things you listed for dehydrated skin including clogged pores. I wanna cry because I can’t believe this may have been my problem! Thank you so much for making this video, I learned so much!
Emiliana Chateau if you have fungal acne you would probably want to get that treated by an actual dermatologist but it can actually be treated with dandruff shampoo since it’s caused by the same fungi that causes dandruff

I have oily dehydrated skin a this Vichy Minerel 89 booster litteraly saved my skin... I've been using it for like a month now noticed a huuuge difference 😍😍
Yes, yes, yes!!! I've talked about this before on my blog after learning the difference myself. I'm pretty sure I have dry dehydrated skin because I have signs of both. If I quit using hyaluronic acid I start to look like a raisin and thick/heavy moisturizers work really well for me. I'm currently using REN's Overnight Recovery Balm and I can and do use it every night and I even add a few drops of Herbivore Emerald Oil to it because more is more with skin as dry as mine is. My favorite hyaluronic acid product that I've tried is the COSRX Hyaluronic Acid Hydra Power Essence, it's helped the most with my dryness fine lines out of everything that I've tried and you get a lot of product so it lasts a long time - I was using The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid before but I was going through about a bottle a month plus it made my makeup pill and the COSRX essence does not (unfortunately it's out of stock at Ulta right now and I wanted to buy it for me BFF for Christmas so hopefully it comes back soon!). Other things that could be causing dryness or dehydration that weren't mentioned are medications and medical conditions. I have Hashimoto's Disease + hypothyroidism so yay...even drier skin for me (and I think diabetes can make your skin dry depending on what type).
I've been struggling dehydrated skin for years and haven't been able to find too many recommendations for products to help counter it. This video was extremely informative and really helped me out :) Thanks so much Susan!
This couldn’t have come at a better time! I was literally looking for a new eye cream today because I’m starting to see more fine lines!! Makes so much sense since my skin has been very dehydrated since the cold weather kicked in. Thank you Susan!!
I travel 12 hour flights about once a year. I used to think I should clean my face and apply face masks/products on the flight to “take care” of myself. This time around, I took your advice and applied a crap top of product prior to boarding. I’m surprised the difference it made! My face didn’t feel tight and dry, and when I was finally able to wash my face, my skin was still relatively plump and juicy. :D thank you!
I always thought I had dehydrated skin so thank you for the confirmation, Susan! Never have I ever clicked so fast on a video haha but also for those who take certain medications, should keep in mind that they can be dehydrating on the body as well! I have ADHD and took medication throughout college. I stopped now that I graduated because I don't want to take medication anymore, but I remember alwayssss being thirsty after I took it. So make sure to hydrate folks 👍✌
I can vouch for the humidifier. The difference it makes is incredible. My lips don't chap as bad and my skin isn't crusty. Make sure you get the right size for your house though. So many people complain that it doesn't work but that's because it's too small for whole house use.
Weird opinion, but I high key love my dry skin because I enjoy the products for dry skin i think it's really satisfying to keep my skin moisturized with all the different gentle and moisturizing products
So I have dry skin sometimes dehydrated. I used to use coconut oil and olive oil to take off my makeup and never had any break out 😂 yeah I stopped using them and started using cleansing balm and cleansing oil. And oh boy a cool mist humidifier is my skin saver , I have it on every night and I don’t suffer from dry throat any more
All my life I've had very oily skin, prone to acne breakouts. Then one day about a year ago it just drastically changed for no apparent reason and became very dry, I've even had a few eczema breakouts. Since then I've been in a constant battle against my skin to try and keep it balanced, which I've been losing more and more as the weather gets colder. I didn't know there was a difference between dry and dehydrated, and now it definitely seems like I'm more dehydrated. This video was very helpful, thank you!
I have both, yay......Thanks for the video there are not enough things about dry skin, particularly with acne which you cover in a lot of your videos. The stereotype is that acne prone people are all oily but that is not the case. But yah I have been dry since I was a baby, I know for sure I am a dry skin type. And then in the winter I get extra dehydrated as well.
My skin care routine I'm a 21 yr old , Indian girl Main concern - hyperpigmentation, white heads Skin type - dry w oily T zone Morning - Facewash - Simple facial wash Toner - Klairs Supple toner Serum - Klairs Vitamin C Moisturizer - Clinique moisture surge SPF - Body shop spf50 skin defence essence Night - 1st cleanse - Clinique take the day off balm Facewash- Faceshop foaming cleanser peach Toner - Klairs Supple toner Serum- Este Lauder ANR Prescription hydroquinone Moisturizer- Clinique moisture surge Lip balm - Laneige lip sleeping mask (lippie balm addict!) Sometimes I use an eye cream but I mostly don't coz I have milia Please suggest things I could add into my routine
I totally agree with what you’ve said. I think ceramides were key for me when my skin was dehydrated and I’ve gotten into the snail mucin this past year and it’s amazing. I may try the humidifier at night because I’m Florida we get days that are cold and some that are hot during the “colder” months. 💜
This was so helpful!! I've always had dry skin but suspected that it was dehydrated as well, and now I know for sure it is and what products to try. Thanks! 😊
Lol this video made me go chug a glass of water. I drink a whooping 1 glass of water a day, yet have the nerve to wonder why my skin cracks like a sand pit. Sigh.
The la roche posay gentle hydrating cleanser is everything I recently finished it and decided to try another cleanser bad choice I’m going back to the la roche one like I said it was everything 😭😘.
This has been so helpful. I did exactly what was said 'striped my oily skin'. I over did it with the ordinary skin products and I had a feeling it's dehydrated as I'm fasting. And I never had dry skin.
Everyone always talk about oily and dry skin but rarely people talk about normal skin which doesnot beakout much or irretate or anything i dont know the best stuff for my skin type so i hope you talk about it♥️
This was the video I needed to see, literally life changing for my acne prone skin. So I used the true belief bomb last year, I quickly jumped off of it because it broke me out so bad and I completely forgot about that product, fast forward to now it make my skin the happiest organ in my body!!! I think I had a bad reaction to the moisturizer because I was using cetaphil foaming(bad) face wash in combination. The two products didn’t chemically mesh well together is my conclusion as to why I stopped the true belief cream in the first place last year.... Now moving on from the cetaphil brand after 7 years of use my skin is better off with out it! The hydrating helps wash she talks about in the video with the combination of the true belief cream has had a wonderful effect on my dry/oily/dehydrated/reactive/acne prone skin. (Yeah my skin is way to crazy!) Thank you Susan for this video, my skin feels new
I have dry skin and acne prone skin but also have dehydrated skin and I simplified my skincare routine with the La Roche Posay Toleriane Cream cleanser, Rosewater with Glycerin, and CeraVe moisturizering cream. My skin got so congested so I added exfoliating. Even with having dry skin I feel like I need to balance chemical and physical exfoliation. Ik some people don't like physical exfoliation but when I balance both, that's when my skin looks best. It's so hard to find out what's causing my acne. Ik part of it is hormonal.
This helped me so much. I have always thought I had dry skin but now I know it’s just dehydrated skin. I have made changes and have seen the results.. Thank you!!!
This video was super helpful! I put a post up on the group page and Nerida Joy was so sweet and gave me some awesome advice, so did a lot a other lovely people!
Yes! I have problem with my liver. I have fatty liver. It's actually painful. I drink water with lemon every day. It actually helps with the pain. It keeps me drinking it cause it tastes good. I also have very dry skin. My skin will hurt. Especially my forehead ares and cheeks. I will see little red lines on my cheeks. I am trying the skinfix. So far it feels really good.
Great video! Mine is super dry but if I forget to get my half liter of water it will become dehydrated very fast. Lots of good info to start using. Thanks!
I see that sunday riley is in one of your recommendation list.. what do you think about the news that says that sunday riley forces their worker to write "nice reviews"? After that i became a little skeptical about that brand, not sure whether it really works or my other skin care that work.. Anyway the video is super helpful, thank you!
Jihan Azita i tried the sample from Sunday riley which it was vitamin c cream. I tried it only one night and it worked for me. It brightened up my skin tone and reduced my acne scars. But well only i tried once, the effect not that much but i could see the improvement
These videos are so much fun to watch, and your expertise is very much appreciated because I love learning about the science behind skincare success. Thank you so much, Susan!
Miracle product for dehydrated skin is Marie Veronique Barrier Restore Serum. From personal experience. Ah-mazing. It made me realize I have combo dehydrated skin when I was convinced I had dry skin.
Loved this video! It was so informative. I have dehydrated oily skin that is acne prone (hormonal acne). I drink tons of water during the day, but I still see a lot of texture and fine lines. I've ordered the REN glow tonic and few other things. Hoping that this helps my redness and other skin issues. Thanks for making this video :)
Susan: eye creams are just a marketing ploy by the cosmetic industry and you should be getting what need in an eye cream in your moisturizer. Susan: try this eye cream. She's taught us so much that we can read through the ad. This isn't a criticism, it's a compliment ❤
I used Dove soap as my face wash and my face was iritated every time I washed it so finaly realized it is because of dove's fragrance. Uriage D. S. emulsion is holy grale for dehydrated /iritated skin. It is water based formula ☺
Thanks Susan! I tried tons of different oils to tread my oily-dehydratate skin. Now it’s just 5 days with this routine and it’s magic! I look younger, bright and nourish skin! REN discount code worked after 10 months and I also received an extra 50 ml travel size and a vitamins C trial for free. The verse serum was just $10 at Target, 50%off!. Now I wish a belief moisturizer for hair!. Now, looking for a cool mist humifier. I’m lost about it.
Hi Susan absolutely love your skincare videos. Could please do a whole morning and night skin care routine for dry skin like which products can be used together and which cannot . Pleaseeee
Susan Yara you mentioned that if you stripped your skin too much due to trying to control your oiliness and acne that you might want to skip thick moisturizers? Wouldn’t you want a thick moisturizer to get the oil back or no?
My goodness thank you Susan. I understand my skin type and condition. Yes I have both because I eat clean and drink a 1.5 Lt bottle of water daily. But the tightness, quick absorption, superfine lines are a reality. I'm going to try out your recommendations. Thank you!
Humidifiers and vapourizers were a game changer for me! Living in a building, especially in winter, is extremely dry and was really drying out my skin and hair.
I was literally just talking about this. I have been sick the past few days and the medicine I was taking sucked all the water out of my body. I could tell it first in my skin. I thought it was dry, but nothing worked. More water and washing my face once a day helped.
I am 21 year old Mum, was thinking of Botox, but it’s more than likely dehydration. Would drinking water more like 2L a day also help? I also drink coffee every day. Oh dear
hahaha I'm the one who can put coconut oil or could put vaseline (but I don't do it because I can't touch vaseline, I think it's gross...) on my face and look great... Still, I put the Laneige lip mask on my face in winter...
I mean.... Glam on Point! Thanks for this video! Learned a lot. I drink a small bottle of alkaline water now once a week. I honestly do feel more refreshed the next morning.
I like Belif products, they have worked really well for me in the past. I used to use the Aqua bomb moisturizer (different that the one Susan promoted) but I found out it had denatured alcohol as one of the top ingredients. They also have it in their hydrating toner which is not good lol. But I will say, I have like any of the products I've tried that don't have drying alcohols in them. The moisturizing eye bomb is the only eye cream I use. It's great under makeup. AND I have super oily skin but I easily get dry patches just under my eyes. My eyes are also pretty sensitive, and this is the one eye cream/moisturizer I've tried under my eyes that doesn't bother me. I love this video because I recently went through this whole ordeal too, and it happened the exact way you mentioned it! I was trying to clear my acne for so long, and I did, but it wow I needed to rehydrate quickly.
Aren’t there new FTC laws out that state you need to make it very clear when you are advertising a product? It seems a little strange how you were SOOO into the Belif stuff. But didn’t say that it was an Ad. I had to scroll to the very bottom of the description page to find it. I trust you and your channel a lot. I just wanted to give constructive criticism about how it seems.
Kelsey the FTC disclosure is in the description. That’s where I always check when I feel like a videos an ad because they gave to legally put it in the info box.
Shazy I said that in my comment... The new FTC laws are saying you need to make it very clear when something is an AD. She didn’t mention it at all and put something at the very bottom of the description. We may notice something is an ad. But not everyone does. The belif creams are against everything she usually stands for , fragrance, no eye creams, etc. Yet she is shilling them. Makes me not trust her as much. But thanks! I did see it in the description, as said in my original comment 😊
Kelsey I did not even notice the ad part at the VERY BOTTOM of the description box, ty for pointing it out!! I get that she needs to get her coin but it is really shady to do an ad this way, I am disappointed tbh
dead giveaway was her mentioning eyecream (when she does reviews of night time routines she always says oh eye creams are a gimmick) - so i scrolled down and boom my suspicions were right
Hi Susan. This video was very informative. Question, I make my own Black Charcoal facial bar soap and love it. There are no artificial additives and no surfactant that would dry the skin. Is a 100% pure natural soap ok to use?
Wanted to get the conversation started on dehydrated skin! I think a lot of people confuse it with dry skin, especially during the winter! Hope this video was helpful!
Susan Yara this came at the perfect time!!! It helped so much, thank you 💜💜💜💜💜

Hi, Susan! Love this vid. So how about if I feel like I have both dry and dehydrated skin? Do I just combine whichever type of products then? Thanks!!
If you feel like you’re drinking a lot of water and then just peeing it out you probably are drinking too much water all at once. Your body can only use so much water at one time and it’s going to get rid of the rest.
The key is to drink small amounts many times throughout the day. That way your body always has the right amount.
But aren't we suposed to drink less water as the day is coming to an end?... how do we balance that?
if water doesnt hydrate you, you NEED electrolytes.. you can find it in milk, peaches and even salt i think
Rachel .Upton Exactly bc despite popular belief Alkaline water is a lie! There is NO scientific evidence that proves it has any benefit for the body.
@@Hanan.T.K Yes. We sweat out electrolytes... Rehydration salts actually contain sodium.. we need it.
My mother once told me about 'water therapy' which means drink one/two glass water every 2 hours throughout the day.
It doesn't work well w me coz i tend to pee all day n it bothersome.
BUT!!
I found my own way to rehydrate my skin which i started w drink 1 glass of water right after i woke up then prepare this huge 2lt bottle,
fill it w mineral water, carrying it everywhere,
n every time i feel like thirsty, or fell a little sour on my mouth, or start to licking my lips, i drink a little.
Maybe just 2-3 gulps.

Doctor Anne that’s what I’m realising about my skin as well and now thinking about changing up my routine.. any tips on what you changed?
same! Also figuring out that my skin prefers a gel moisturizer more than a cream for hydration.
@@jamieferguson3131 I adore gel moisturizers, especially in the summer. Which one are you using at the moment?

I visited the Volvic water offices in France a few years ago and they spoke of all the benefits of their mineral water. You could be right!
Susan Yara yep, dehydrated and acne prone skin is very often deficient in zinc, selenium and magnesium. Taking these minerals is helpful, but it’s easier for the body to absorb the minerals when they’re dissolved in water or extracted from food. Dark greens like kale have these minerals in them, and eggs are high in zinc. I’m currently researching the best ways to absorb these minerals...
Btw I’m a huge fan!!
THANK YOU!!! No one talks about this!!!
Yes!!!! This whole alkaline water is marking ploy that's why i drink spring water

Same.
Could you share the products and routine you used to normalise your skin? I’m struggling to do the same
Yes, fine lines are usually because of dehydration, esp. on younger people. Thanks for talking about too much botox way too soon.

Can you a video about fungal acne and how to treat it?

Emiliana Chateau also buy some tea tree oil and use that, it’s anti fungal anti bacterial, it will help I’m Sure! It cleared my acne forever

Yes! Only thing that saved my oily skin!!!
My skin has been looking absolutely tragic lately, fine lines, dull, etc.... I think it’s dehydrated. Thank you for this video!
This is literally life changing. I sincerely can’t thank you enough! Absolutely amazing and beyond helpful! WOW! Thank you!!
Yes, yes, yes!!! I've talked about this before on my blog after learning the difference myself. I'm pretty sure I have dry dehydrated skin because I have signs of both. If I quit using hyaluronic acid I start to look like a raisin and thick/heavy moisturizers work really well for me. I'm currently using REN's Overnight Recovery Balm and I can and do use it every night and I even add a few drops of Herbivore Emerald Oil to it because more is more with skin as dry as mine is. My favorite hyaluronic acid product that I've tried is the COSRX Hyaluronic Acid Hydra Power Essence, it's helped the most with my dryness fine lines out of everything that I've tried and you get a lot of product so it lasts a long time - I was using The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid before but I was going through about a bottle a month plus it made my makeup pill and the COSRX essence does not (unfortunately it's out of stock at Ulta right now and I wanted to buy it for me BFF for Christmas so hopefully it comes back soon!). Other things that could be causing dryness or dehydration that weren't mentioned are medications and medical conditions. I have Hashimoto's Disease + hypothyroidism so yay...even drier skin for me (and I think diabetes can make your skin dry depending on what type).
Do these diseases you mentioned make your skin dehydrated or dry?
Answer please ?
I've been struggling dehydrated skin for years and haven't been able to find too many recommendations for products to help counter it. This video was extremely informative and really helped me out :) Thanks so much Susan!
My skin is so dehydrated it's crazy
Mines the same way,trying to find a way to get its ph back.
This couldn’t have come at a better time! I was literally looking for a new eye cream today because I’m starting to see more fine lines!! Makes so much sense since my skin has been very dehydrated since the cold weather kicked in. Thank you Susan!!
Susan, can you please do a video for signs of healthy skin PLEASE?
I travel 12 hour flights about once a year. I used to think I should clean my face and apply face masks/products on the flight to “take care” of myself. This time around, I took your advice and applied a crap top of product prior to boarding. I’m surprised the difference it made! My face didn’t feel tight and dry, and when I was finally able to wash my face, my skin was still relatively plump and juicy. :D thank you!
Jung-Won Guo Yes! I love that you switched it around.
I always thought I had dehydrated skin so thank you for the confirmation, Susan! Never have I ever clicked so fast on a video haha but also for those who take certain medications, should keep in mind that they can be dehydrating on the body as well! I have ADHD and took medication throughout college. I stopped now that I graduated because I don't want to take medication anymore, but I remember alwayssss being thirsty after I took it. So make sure to hydrate folks 👍✌
listen to her general advices, they're great.
the rest is ad (as mentioned at the bottom of the description)
I can vouch for the humidifier. The difference it makes is incredible. My lips don't chap as bad and my skin isn't crusty. Make sure you get the right size for your house though. So many people complain that it doesn't work but that's because it's too small for whole house use.
Finally! No one gets dehydrated skin but you explained it so well! I really tick all the boxes for this condition
I have both honestly. Doesn't help that I live in a very dry area
One very helpful tip is leave a wet towel /or/ a container with water close to your bed because the water will evaporate and humidify the air.
Weird opinion, but I high key love my dry skin because I enjoy the products for dry skin i think it's really satisfying to keep my skin moisturized with all the different gentle and moisturizing products
I bought the belief products after this video and they are wonderful for winter!!!!
So I have dry skin sometimes dehydrated. I used to use coconut oil and olive oil to take off my makeup and never had any break out 😂 yeah I stopped using them and started using cleansing balm and cleansing oil. And oh boy a cool mist humidifier is my skin saver , I have it on every night and I don’t suffer from dry throat any more
All my life I've had very oily skin, prone to acne breakouts. Then one day about a year ago it just drastically changed for no apparent reason and became very dry, I've even had a few eczema breakouts. Since then I've been in a constant battle against my skin to try and keep it balanced, which I've been losing more and more as the weather gets colder.
I didn't know there was a difference between dry and dehydrated, and now it definitely seems like I'm more dehydrated. This video was very helpful, thank you!
Check your thyroid, it might be causing that change.
I have both, yay......Thanks for the video there are not enough things about dry skin, particularly with acne which you cover in a lot of your videos. The stereotype is that acne prone people are all oily but that is not the case.
But yah I have been dry since I was a baby, I know for sure I am a dry skin type. And then in the winter I get extra dehydrated as well.
Good morning👸
You are definitely my go too Esthetician, for advice and up to date info...
❤ your style.
This channel and the Director Pi channel are my favorite !! This video is so informative!! 👍🥰

NERIDA JOY IS MY GIRL YESSSSS
I totally agree with what you’ve said. I think ceramides were key for me when my skin was dehydrated and I’ve gotten into the snail mucin this past year and it’s amazing. I may try the humidifier at night because I’m Florida we get days that are cold and some that are hot during the “colder” months. 💜
Thanks Susan. I am on accutane so I am currently riding the struggle bus of extremely dry and peeling skin.
This was so helpful!! I've always had dry skin but suspected that it was dehydrated as well, and now I know for sure it is and what products to try. Thanks! 😊
Drink everytime she says dehydrated skin. 😊
😂 i like drinking games to trick myself into hydration too
I have dry skin. I’ve had it my entire life. I know it’s not just dehydrated. My skin does not like oils. I use la roshe posay and my skin loves it.
Lol this video made me go chug a glass of water. I drink a whooping 1 glass of water a day, yet have the nerve to wonder why my skin cracks like a sand pit. Sigh.
Samantha-M.
Wow. I can’t believe that bish H2O would go and ruin you like that 🙄 so selfish
The la roche posay gentle hydrating cleanser is everything I recently finished it and decided to try another cleanser bad choice I’m going back to the la roche one like I said it was everything 😭😘.
This has been so helpful. I did exactly what was said 'striped my oily skin'. I over did it with the ordinary skin products and I had a feeling it's dehydrated as I'm fasting. And I never had dry skin.
Everyone always talk about oily and dry skin but rarely people talk about normal skin which doesnot beakout much or irretate or anything i dont know the best stuff for my skin type so i hope you talk about it♥️
This was the video I needed to see, literally life changing for my acne prone skin. So I used the true belief bomb last year, I quickly jumped off of it because it broke me out so bad and I completely forgot about that product, fast forward to now it make my skin the happiest organ in my body!!! I think I had a bad reaction to the moisturizer because I was using cetaphil foaming(bad) face wash in combination. The two products didn’t chemically mesh well together is my conclusion as to why I stopped the true belief cream in the first place last year.... Now moving on from the cetaphil brand after 7 years of use my skin is better off with out it! The hydrating helps wash she talks about in the video with the combination of the true belief cream has had a wonderful effect on my dry/oily/dehydrated/reactive/acne prone skin. (Yeah my skin is way to crazy!) Thank you Susan for this video, my skin feels new
I have dry skin and acne prone skin but also have dehydrated skin and I simplified my skincare routine with the La Roche Posay Toleriane Cream cleanser, Rosewater with Glycerin, and CeraVe moisturizering cream. My skin got so congested so I added exfoliating. Even with having dry skin I feel like I need to balance chemical and physical exfoliation. Ik some people don't like physical exfoliation but when I balance both, that's when my skin looks best. It's so hard to find out what's causing my acne. Ik part of it is hormonal.
Just in time! I’ve noticed some dryness but I’m generally oily with acne. Thank you!
I can just watch her all day! Thank you for your very informative video!!!
This helped me so much. I have always thought I had dry skin but now I know it’s just dehydrated skin. I have made changes and have seen the results.. Thank you!!!
Brains and beauty 😊 first video I watched from you and now I'm hooked! Thank you so much for this educated video. I have dehydrated skin
This video was super helpful! I put a post up on the group page and Nerida Joy was so sweet and gave me some awesome advice, so did a lot a other lovely people!
Yes! I have problem with my liver. I have fatty liver. It's actually painful. I drink water with lemon every day. It actually helps with the pain. It keeps me drinking it cause it tastes good. I also have very dry skin. My skin will hurt. Especially my forehead ares and cheeks. I will see little red lines on my cheeks. I am trying the skinfix. So far it feels really good.
We can talk about dry vs dehydrated later. What I need to know is where I can get your top? It’s so cute!! Okay, back to the video. 😂 Thanks, Susan!
I completely agree with this video could not have explained it better
Great video! Mine is super dry but if I forget to get my half liter of water it will become dehydrated very fast. Lots of good info to start using. Thanks!
I loved this video and the way she explained everything so simple, thank you!!!
I see that sunday riley is in one of your recommendation list.. what do you think about the news that says that sunday riley forces their worker to write "nice reviews"? After that i became a little skeptical about that brand, not sure whether it really works or my other skin care that work..
Anyway the video is super helpful, thank you!
Jihan Azita i tried the sample from Sunday riley which it was vitamin c cream. I tried it only one night and it worked for me. It brightened up my skin tone and reduced my acne scars. But well only i tried once, the effect not that much but i could see the improvement
Also recommend the Aveeno Eczema Therapy for a thick cream that your skin will actually soak up
These videos are so much fun to watch, and your expertise is very much appreciated because I love learning about the science behind skincare success. Thank you so much, Susan!
Miracle product for dehydrated skin is Marie Veronique Barrier Restore Serum. From personal experience. Ah-mazing. It made me realize I have combo dehydrated skin when I was convinced I had dry skin.
I thought I had dry skin for years! Thanks for making this video, I learned a lot!
Loved this video! It was so informative. I have dehydrated oily skin that is acne prone (hormonal acne). I drink tons of water during the day, but I still see a lot of texture and fine lines. I've ordered the REN glow tonic and few other things. Hoping that this helps my redness and other skin issues. Thanks for making this video :)
Susan: eye creams are just a marketing ploy by the cosmetic industry and you should be getting what need in an eye cream in your moisturizer.
Susan: try this eye cream.
She's taught us so much that we can read through the ad. This isn't a criticism, it's a compliment ❤
Thank you Thank you thank you!!!!! for helping us discern the 2 makes COMPLETE sense, on to HYDRATION for me ! Stay Beautiful❤
I used Dove soap as my face wash and my face was iritated every time I washed it so finaly realized it is because of dove's fragrance. Uriage D. S. emulsion is holy grale for dehydrated /iritated skin. It is water based formula ☺
Thank you so much for this video. I have dry skin and I am currently having difficulties with finding new products. This video helped me so much!
Very informative video. Thanks for the tips!
this video helped, i didnt realise my toner had salicylic acid in it and now the dehydration is gone, thank you
Thanks Susan! I tried tons of different oils to tread my oily-dehydratate skin. Now it’s just 5 days with this routine and it’s magic! I look younger, bright and nourish skin! REN discount code worked after 10 months and I also received an extra 50 ml travel size and a vitamins C trial for free. The verse serum was just $10 at Target, 50%off!. Now I wish a belief moisturizer for hair!. Now, looking for a cool mist humifier. I’m lost about it.
SO informative! Can you please give me more moisturizer recommendations for dry skin?
Hi Susan absolutely love your skincare videos. Could please do a whole morning and night skin care routine for dry skin like which products can be used together and which cannot . Pleaseeee
Susan Yara you mentioned that if you stripped your skin too much due to trying to control your oiliness and acne that you might want to skip thick moisturizers? Wouldn’t you want a thick moisturizer to get the oil back or no?
My goodness thank you Susan. I understand my skin type and condition. Yes I have both because I eat clean and drink a 1.5 Lt bottle of water daily. But the tightness, quick absorption, superfine lines are a reality. I'm going to try out your recommendations. Thank you!
Thank you so much Susan for this awesome video!!! It already helped me alot!!!! 😊😊😊
Humidifiers and vapourizers were a game changer for me! Living in a building, especially in winter, is extremely dry and was really drying out my skin and hair.
Thank you very much for this video! It's helpful and informative. I am glad to see that my favourite moisturizer is recommended by you!
Can you do a video on milia
I have dry acne prone skin. Not to mention using benzoyl peroxide and differin, but the CeraVe moisturizing cream is saving my skin😅
youre so right I used to be a huge proponent of coconut oil..but ive realised it reALLY breaks me out!!
Please talk about the difference between oily skin vs congested skin! Great video xox
Susan i learned so much about skincare from you
please do a skincare routine for oily acne prone skin
thank you for the video and the topic.
I was literally just talking about this. I have been sick the past few days and the medicine I was taking sucked all the water out of my body. I could tell it first in my skin. I thought it was dry, but nothing worked. More water and washing my face once a day helped.
I am 21 year old Mum, was thinking of Botox, but it’s more than likely dehydration. Would drinking water more like 2L a day also help?
I also drink coffee every day. Oh dear
hahaha I'm the one who can put coconut oil or could put vaseline (but I don't do it because I can't touch vaseline, I think it's gross...) on my face and look great... Still, I put the Laneige lip mask on my face in winter...
I love the Belif Moisturizing Bomb.
This is probably one of my favorite videos because I have never heard of dehydrated skin. I always thought there was only dry skin.
I mean.... Glam on Point! Thanks for this video! Learned a lot. I drink a small bottle of alkaline water now once a week. I honestly do feel more refreshed the next morning.
Thomas Murphy Watch it! You might get a lot of shit for drinking bougie alkaline water. Teehee! 😛
Susan Yara haha oh, I see! I consult with my doctor and in short amounts they find nothing wrong with it! Haters gonna hate, amirite?
Thomas Murphy 🤣🤣🤣
I like Belif products, they have worked really well for me in the past. I used to use the Aqua bomb moisturizer (different that the one Susan promoted) but I found out it had denatured alcohol as one of the top ingredients. They also have it in their hydrating toner which is not good lol. But I will say, I have like any of the products I've tried that don't have drying alcohols in them. The moisturizing eye bomb is the only eye cream I use. It's great under makeup. AND I have super oily skin but I easily get dry patches just under my eyes. My eyes are also pretty sensitive, and this is the one eye cream/moisturizer I've tried under my eyes that doesn't bother me. I love this video because I recently went through this whole ordeal too, and it happened the exact way you mentioned it! I was trying to clear my acne for so long, and I did, but it wow I needed to rehydrate quickly.
thank you for the advice really needed to hear this.
I think real barrier foam cleanser is great, not drying at all.. even when i use it in winter.
Aren’t there new FTC laws out that state you need to make it very clear when you are advertising a product? It seems a little strange how you were SOOO into the Belif stuff. But didn’t say that it was an Ad. I had to scroll to the very bottom of the description page to find it. I trust you and your channel a lot. I just wanted to give constructive criticism about how it seems.
Kelsey the FTC disclosure is in the description. That’s where I always check when I feel like a videos an ad because they gave to legally put it in the info box.
Shazy I said that in my comment... The new FTC laws are saying you need to make it very clear when something is an AD. She didn’t mention it at all and put something at the very bottom of the description. We may notice something is an ad. But not everyone does. The belif creams are against everything she usually stands for , fragrance, no eye creams, etc. Yet she is shilling them. Makes me not trust her as much. But thanks! I did see it in the description, as said in my original comment 😊
Kelsey I did not even notice the ad part at the VERY BOTTOM of the description box, ty for pointing it out!! I get that she needs to get her coin but it is really shady to do an ad this way, I am disappointed tbh
@@buketkabacaoglu6717 My thoughts exactly! Agree with you 10000%
dead giveaway was her mentioning eyecream (when she does reviews of night time routines she always says oh eye creams are a gimmick) - so i scrolled down and boom my suspicions were right
Crazy how there is always something new to learn-dry skin represent. Aquaphor is wonderful when your face just won’t soothe.
Noelle Deschanel yes, or the Cerave Baby ointment. I just slather away. 😂
Skincare reaction video for ageing skin & Please do a skincare video based on menstrual cycle
This is exactly what I needed. Thank you!
Hi Susan. This video was very informative. Question, I make my own Black Charcoal facial bar soap and love it. There are no artificial additives and no surfactant that would dry the skin. Is a 100% pure natural soap ok to use?
