Seems to hydrate-Recommended Serums-Tamarind pulp acid, Uine acid, organic strawberry tree, glycolic acid, hyaluronic acid, and salicylic acid (10:02-how to) Also remember to keep your sugar levels down
Carlos Slim yeah I have been doing that for the past four months and it seems to have helped me a little bit... but for the most part it’s still very much there :/
a mist of lemon juice, aloevera and apple cider vinegar, dilluted in water with a drop of teatree oil sprayed on the back before going to sleep. that worked wonders for me plus a coffee & honey peeling. for the peeling you use the rest of the coffee in the filter. so recyle something that would have thrown away and its for freeee :))) plus: wash your clothes and sheets more often with mild detergent and avoid plastic material on your skin!! good luck
I thoroughly appreciate that you bring to light the fact that every decision you make can affect your skin health, like your diet. It's important and a lot of people pretend like nothing in your body has anything to do with all the other parts of your body, like it's all separate, when in reality it's not. Everything is connected.
I agree, once you stop eating sweet stuff for a week or two you stop craving it, I was rly surprised and my skin got much better too, so I recommend it to you guys =)
Slightly Toxic i was having the same issue. I found out that a lot of the issues I had were from eating those foods. When I avoided wheat and corn my skin started to clear up. If I’m honest, I did it for a great while and I felt amazing. I even lost weight that I couldn’t lose for years. Unfortunately I got into a hole and couldn’t afford healthier foods and eventually went back to eating unhealthy foods and foods that have wheat and corn. I know that there’s ways around it but i have to get back into that cycle. I hope you can find what’s causing your acne. I know it’s a struggle everyday for me.
Esthetician here! Pores do not change size at all due to the cold or heat, but heat (and massage) can cause the sebum in the skin to loosen and come out more easily! :)
krmc4960 I have a ton of pores that are filled with little black spots (this makes me sound naive but I’m assuming there blackheads) and what ever I do I can’t get them out and it’s soooo frustrating. Don’t want to bother you but what do you recommend to get rid of the blackheads/get them out.(There on my nose, chin, parts of my cheeks and in my lower forehead: between my eyebrows). I know this was 2 months ago but wondering if you can help. Thanks 😃
ComplexElegance Thank you so much. I was thinking about buying the Aztec Face Mask but thought you could confirm it because of your job. Thanks again that really helped and have a good day🙂
What I love the most it's that you guys give a "let's sit down n talk about it , have a nice conversation feeling" which really helps in understanding.
Hey, I know I'm late but just wanted to say thank you for such a detailed description on pores. I'm a dude who has been self conscious about my large pores for many years and I've tried asking other girls about how to take care of it but they just kept saying to wash it which I do every day to no avail. I've even tried buying those vacuum suckers for the face and it just didn't seem to work, but it did come with a random metal rod which I now know is something I can actually use now thanks to you two. I especially appreciate the scientific details, it gave me more confidence in what you were teaching and now hopefully I can start taking better care of my skin. I hope your 2023 is off to a good start and good luck on future videos.
I find eating fruit in the morning and around 3pm - 4pm helps with preventing sugar cravings and energy slumps during the day. Plus super sweet fruit like watermelon and mango has so many skin-beneficial vitamins & minerals. Also ... would you guys be open to discussing and / or reviewing skin clinic / aesthetician procedures like skin peels, microdermabradsian, fraxel laser, fraxel RF, dermapen etc?
I wish I could have meet someone like you girls during my teenage years. I could have saved myself from acne scarring. 😭 ¡¡¡ LOVE your so informative videos keep them coming!!! 💖💖
I couldn't agree more with the sugar thing! I've had the biggest sweet tooth ever since elementary school, and had hormonal acne ever since middle school. During college I wanted to try changing my diet to a healthier alternative and see how my skin would react. I completely cut refined sugars out and replaced any dessert cravings with a fruit or vegetable. After about 2 weeks I could already see such a big improvement in my complexion! Almost no pimples, less redness and brighter skin. I also made sure to sleep early and drink LOTS of water every day. Having a good skincare routine is a big plus, but it's really only the icing on the cake. If your body isn't happy with what you're giving it on the inside, it will show on the outside :). You need both to have the best results!
First skin care video I’ve watch from start to finish without being bored. Nicely spoken, steady pace with helpful tips. I’ve struggled with moon crater pores my whole life. I will put this into my routine and hopefully keep it up. Never knew about the sugar....that’s going to be tough. Mostly the soda is what gets me.
Rameen Fatima take a cotton swab, wet it with water and then add a drop of tea tree oil on it. That way it’s properly diluted and is still effective. Spot treatment that works sis.
I have a question, I am the only one that has inflammations or lumps on the cheeks but they are like pimples that are not well formed? I do not know if I explained well
It's true! Just stop drinking sodas & processed juices, then donuts, cookies, adding sugar to milk, teas, etc. Gradually, it works. Now I don't drink anything of that and don't like too much things with sugar. I lost weight also 😉
Tamarind is used in a popular dish here in the Philippines which is either pork, shrimp or fish sinigang. My fav dish ever! It makes my mouth water just thinking of it. You should try it and the more sour it is the better. In terms of sugar my god i love ice cream before and after every meal!
Could you please do a video about the best skincare for dry but acne prone skin? That would be really helpfull cause most people only talk about dry skin or oily and acne prone skin but not about dry and acne prone skin
Anne Ostendorf hey! If you wanna treat dry acne prone skin then use cosrx good morning cleanser or krave beauty’s face wash, follow it up by laneige cream refiner toner or klairs toner and then apply klairs midnight blue calming cream or etude house 2x barrier intensive cream! P.s use klairs freshly juiced vitamin drops after your toner at night and for exfoliation use cosrx pads once in a week! Thanks me later :)
I have just found these videos and I'm so happy it happened and somebody is ACTUALLY showing what really works, and not just "buy my creams and it will heal your face." Bcs that doesn't work (ofc...), but this... This does. Thank you for these videos
Thank you so much for actually giving an explanation as to why every step is important instead of just going through the steps. I also love the graphics, they add extra understanding. Subscribed!
While steaming provides multiple benefits to enhance the facial process, opening the pores is not one of them. Steam is used to soften the skin to make extractions easier to perform and less painful. In this scenario, the pore is not expanding; the impaction is loosening. Steaming introduces moisture to the skin, creating a more absorptive canvas for product application. Enzymes, acids, and retinoids all work more effectively when applied to freshly steamed skin - again, not because pores are more open, but because the moisturized skin more readily absorbs these ingredients. Because steam is intensely hydrating, it softens the top layer of the epidermis, which aids in exfoliating dead skin cells and promoting cell renewal.
I completely agree about the sugar thing!!! In December, I ate SOOOOOOO much sugar. Like toooooooo much. I went from having a pretty balanced diet to eating a bunch of sugar in one month, and I believe (along with the cold, dry weather) that that's what made me breakout like CRAZY. I have never had this bad of a breakout in my entire life and I was (am) devastated. I get white heads every day and my acne was inflamed. It got even WORSE after I tried the neutrogena gel moisturizer. Since I have oily dehydrated skin, I thought the gel would be fine but it honestly should made me break out even more and I got breakouts on my cheeks, which NEVER breaks out that badly. In the beginning of February, my skin was so inflamed and pimples appeared every day and the hyperpigmentation was unreal. I bought the biore salicylic acid, pixi glow tonic, and clean and clear moisturizer with salicylic acid. This kind of made my skin clear up, but it ultimately also made my skin inflamed and very sensitive bc I was using so much AHA and BHA. I finally switched to the cerave for normal to oily skin and back to my witch hazel toner and continued to use the clean and clear salicylic acid (using sunscreen every day of course!!) and my skin has become significantly less inflamed, probably because these products are MUCH gentler than the other ones I was using. I also added The Ordinary niacinamide + zinc and it's also controlled my oiliness and inflammed skin. My biggest issue is still whiteheads, acne, and hyperpigmentation. I ordered the coxrx centella blemish cream along with the azaelic acid suspension from TO. Hopefully these work to return my skin back to what it was before I had this huge break out. My advice: don't eat 3 cinnabuns in one month LOL. If anyone has oily/combo skin and has advice, pls lmk! I also am curious how azaelic acid has worked for other people!
Thank you so much for this video!! My skin is my the biggest reason why i have extremely low self esteem, so I'm gonna try these few tips and hopefully things will start to clear up a bit 😁👍
You guys are saving my skin. I have already seen a difference in my skin thanks to the tips you guys give. I always look forward to your videos. I can't always afford the products you guys talk about. But it is easy to find dupes or similar things! :)
Awww that is so so awesome to hear! We love it when you guys share your skincare experiences with us, we're so happy! Yes dupes are great, and we don't always have to spend a lot of money to get good products, a lot of the inexpensive ones are soo good too! Let us know what your faves are too! 😊- fel
They are already wearing foundation.. "no makeup makeup look".. pores are blurred in camera. Since they are giving you an idea of clean poreless skin. See clips in between, it's their skin. Hope that doesnt offend you for me replying
I never drink soda, have sweets once a month or so but this year I've been going ham on the sweets and my skin is starting to break out for the first time in years! 😭
im a guy with no interest in this stuff that came here for some high level in skin care, in my 30's now so its been a while since i dealt with acne & stuff but this was a great overview and refresher. exactly what i was looking for.
Thank you for doing the “dirty work” (looking up information for each video.) Your channel helps me feel more beautiful and normal. Sometimes it can feel like I am the only one with large pores, dehydrated skin, dark circles etc. thanks for reminding me I am not alone :) I support you ladies! Keep the videos coming!
I have been using the clarins pore control serum and it really works!!!! I’ve never used any other product (and I’ve tried a lot!) that actually works on my pores so I’m glad you guys mentioned this amazing product! Love it ❤️
enlarged pores really makes me unconfident of myself everytime I need speak to other people that I'm not close with. Actually I'm planning to create a video of my noticeable/enlarged pores on my face. Like a journey of myself to minimize my big pores. Yes I will upload soon.. btw will I find a solution? 😅😅😅
Also afterwards applying 4% benzoyl peroxide cleanser for ~2 minutes on the spot and some of the surrounding areas and then rinsing it is VERY effective for me. They essentially never come back since doing that (using a leave-on BP will often dry the hell out of the skin, and it gets in the way of the rest of the skincare routine). I then leave the extracted sites to settle (coagulate, any fluid to stop), do my dental stuff, then finish my skincare routine after that. Don't want to spread bacteria around if we can help it, because that leads to more acne. 14:00 - Oh, and sugar doesn't cause inflammation. When comparing a low and high sugar-intake diet, WITH calories being equal, they are the same as far as inflammation. Eating ANYTHING will cause inflammation, very temporarily (no effect on long-term inflammation). If you eat too many calories, regardless of what it's comprised of, then you'll get inflammation, because excess body fat causes inflammation. Unless all that is required for an acne response is that initial temporary spike... I don't know. I just know that the overall inflammation levels will be completely fine.
I would love a video on 'para-medical skin care'. I have experienced acne at it's various different stages from really severe to just a couple of breakouts around my time of the month. After a really intensive skin journey using a para-medical brand - dmk skincare which involved regular enzyme therapy and a home skin care routine my acne got better but then my progress plateaued. Eventually I started taking minomycin which is an antibiotic that fights infections within the body such as acne. I am happy to say my skin has gotten much better and I am using a simple routine: QV Gentle Face Cleanser, Cosrx BHA Blackhead Power Liquid and finishing off with Squalane Oil by Olivearrier (in conjunction with antibiotics) but I'm just curious as to whether these paramedical brands are more/less effective than what is readily available on the market. Love your videos by the way - I feel you guys are well informed and really take into acocunt the science behind skincare.
You are Right! I did everything in order to get rid my acne until the age of 29. I used accutane, birth pills, every skincare product. But right after I cut out sugar all of my acne was gone. I still have pores so that I will use the technics you advise. Thank you very much 🙏🏼😘
I love the way you included the sponsored product! You declared it from the beginning and it was so interesting. More youtubers should do it that way! I used the Sisley global perfect pore serum for a while and it helped my pores to clear up... But it was so expensive :( Will definitely consider Clarins next time, I am madly in love with the lotus face oil... Most of their products are hits in my opinion :)
Why is it that the only place your pores look huge is your bloody face and pores actually aren't huge on the rest of your body, if my face could be as poreless as my ass that would be awesome 😂
For face steaming, what I’ve done is boil water on the stove and pour it in a large glass bowl but only filling it halfway or so. That way, when I put my face over it, my face won’t touch the water in the bowl since it’s not filled. I also draped myself with a towel too to contain the steam and concentrate it on my face!
Can you talk something about the direction/gesture of doing different stage of skin care process? I’ve heard that we should do swirls while cleansing and tap while apply toner. How about the rest?
So I’m currently in school to be an esthetician. During the cleanse swirling is the go to, just make sure to always move in an upwards motion. Toner you can rub or pat on but again if you rub it on make sure it’s in an upwards motion. Any other products such as a serum, moisturizer and sunscreen you should always pat in.
Totally with you on the reducing sugar advice! But as a nutritionist I wanted to add that your body doesn’t differentiate between table sugar and honey/maple syrup, so they’re not “healthier” alternatives unfortunately 😉
the hot washcloth is my favorite for easing pimples out of the skin without hurting my skin. I leave it on for a few minutes and usually the gunk will work itself out and I can just wipe it away
@@mr.e5441 - It's not that simple. Deciding what's more important is establishing a goal (which habit to cut). The difficulty is in REACHING said goal. Addictions to various substances wouldn't be such a widespread problem, if the solution was simply to decide what's important and then stop it, lol. It's like saying it's easy to become a rocket scientist. You "just" have to memorize things xP.
Alex Gabriel it actually is that simple for this type of problem, most people overcomplicate things. Now the rocket scientist part is a different story.
@@mr.e5441 I actually ate a lot of sugar when I was younger and by a lot I mean A LOT. Then I tried cutting it out of my diet and the cravings or the energy slumps weren't even the worst thing. I started getting actual headaches and it took about a month until they stopped. I managed not to eat any refined sugar for almost a year before I caved in again. Of course part of it is the determination to take the first step, but with any addiction the first hurdle are always withdrawal symptoms. They do heck to your determination. Secondly, cutting a habit isn't setting a goal for myself that I want to reach. There simply IS no goal. It's a day to day determination that you have to keep up. There's no "one small muffin won't harm" if you want to stay strong. Lastly - cutting refined sugar doesn't just mean cutting the obvious ones. Nowadays, so many products you can buy already contain refined sugar as an ingredient that it restricts your possibilities. If you are so strong-willed that you can simply decide what's good for you and act accordingly, congratulations. But if you expect everyone to be the same, you'll be sorely disappointed.
Cut out your sugar little by little. You dont need to cut everything at once. I was pretty much addicted to eating m&m's that have peanuts (the party size bag = about 64oz). It's a lot but I would be finishing the whole bag in less than a week, about 3-4 days. And was an unhealthy habit of mine but recently over the couple of months, I've been consuming less sugar than I would normally intake. I bought the party size bag of m&m's and havent finished it yet, which is good progress on my end because it means I'm not depended on them. I also try to buy food products that don't have added sugar or not so much added sugar. I love drinking my cranberry juice so it is important I find one that doesnt have any added sugar. Also, eating more veggies and fruit could help reduce your sugar cravings. So I still eat some of the same things like m&m's but my intake is less. And if there was a scenario where I had to drink soda, I would drink sprite since it's one of the few that has less sugar than most sodas. But I dont really drink sodas as much.
i love how i can always trust you guys to have clear and concise videos, have been watching you guys for a year now. I hope you guys do this together for a while :)
Yeeees! That would be great. Maybe also talking about all those supplements people take, helpful or not, and what actually helps with shiny, healthy hair and prevents hairloss, etc.?
Sugar and hormones greatly effect your acne. I am a 14 year old girl who (for the most part) trys to stay on keto! I used to have really bad acne before I started dieting. Once I started, my acne really started to clear up with my skin routine. If I start my period, BAM I get a giant pimple (the one that hurts). These things can really affect your skin. Tip: if you love soda like I do, drink carbonated water! My dad makes our own carbonated water and I sometimes add no carb sweetener. (Use a sweetener that doesn't have any maltodextrin, sucralose, sucrose ect. in it because that raises insulin levels which equals ACNEEE. Instead use monkfruit, stevia, or erythritol based sweeteners. But beware, it makes you have the beanie doozies like crazyyy!)
Could you guys make a video about body lotion and care for body/skin (not just face)? Tips on how to properly care after shower, what kind of body wash to use, ingredients to look for, ingredients to avoid, scrub or not scrub, body skin barrier 101, etc...
Hey there! I was wondering what your thoughts are on jade rollers. The purpose of them is that they are able to stay cool for a long period of time and people roll it as the wear a sheet mask. You explained in your video that if anything cool touches your face, it constrict your pores. If sheet the mask (which is always naturally cold) and applying the cold rolling jade on to the face, would I not be absorbing as much serum? I’ve been thinking about slightly warming my masks so that my pore wills stay open. What are your thoughts?
Thank you so much for these videos, it has helped me so much. One thing I would like to see however is more affordable options. I understand you're advertising products but it's a lot of money to be spending especially for a newbie trying things out and seeing what works best for their skin.
There is sparkling water. Also an actual serving of Juice is 4pz not 8oz. So sometimes portion control is key. Or add a couple splashes of juice to your water for flavor.
Trust that this information that I'm about to give u makes ur skin clearer. I usually steam my face with a towel soaked in hot water two times and then I clean my face with some scrub after that I steam it again while washing the scrub away. WALLA CLEAR SKIN BAMM !!!!
I love you girls!!! Thank you so much for your advice. Im. A guy who is in his early 40s and my pores are getting bigger is seems with covid wearing masks and ur tips are so helpful to removing the debris .thank you!!! 😁
Literally all my stubborn skin issues are clogged pores. And minimal brown scars. 😂😂 I love how when in doubt, this channel helps one out. ✔ Thank you so much! I have long had a tea tree oil bottle, completely pure & natural, though I've always heard people say & I've read about it, how it should be diluted, so in fear of this, I simply wouldn't use it. Anyone know if it could simply be added as is or how should it be diluted?
Wow! This video was such a great informative video! I love how you take the time to research and give us background information for basically whatever we need. Thanks. 😊
Do you know what to do with scalp problems? 😭 Like what shampoos to use, serums, etc Cause I've been dealing with bad dandruff for the past few months. It's also causing me hair loss 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
thanks for remind me about reducing sugar intake, fruits are so much better for our health as also they contain the fibre required to process its natural sugar.
Mastoora beauty have a huge sale on now for all items with free shipping. Including a face mist that shrinks pores and brightens complexion, hair growth treatments, retin A etc
Love the content you guys put out and the products and information you provide I was wondering if you guys could do a video over beauty tools like the tok stick and wayskin and items like that?
Please do a video on how to balance and calm dehydrated skin and recommended skin care products to use. My face gets SO hot & oily and my nose turns bright red and it's so embarrassing when I'm in public
Sugar is the most addicting substance in the world. I recently started having back acne and I don’t know how to control that especially when my period is close
I use organic Konjac sponges with my face wash. ive tried a few different kinds and I find the ones that work the best are NEO BATH & SPA Konjac sponges I got on amazon.
1. Steam face
2. Use toner after extraction
3. Hydrate with serums
Remember
This was a personal note for me so I only listed the steps I can do
they said hydrate WITH serums
How do i close my pores??
How
1. Steam face (4:35-How to)
2. Extraction-Tip-You can use a toner, antiseptic cream or natural ingredient AFTER extraction (7:36 how to)
3. Seems to hydrate-Recommended Serums-Tamarind pulp acid, Uine acid, organic strawberry tree, glycolic acid, hyaluronic acid, and salicylic acid (10:02-how to)
Also remember to keep your sugar levels down
Can you girls please do a video on back/chest/neck acne? A homie is struggling big time to find reliable products that work
Same with me!!
It's bcz of the conditioner. Wash your body after you was your hair.
Carlos Slim yeah I have been doing that for the past four months and it seems to have helped me a little bit... but for the most part it’s still very much there :/
I use Neutrogena Pink Grapefruit body wash and it works pretty well. It has salicylic acid.
a mist of lemon juice, aloevera and apple cider vinegar, dilluted in water with a drop of teatree oil sprayed on the back before going to sleep. that worked wonders for me plus a coffee & honey peeling. for the peeling you use the rest of the coffee in the filter. so recyle something that would have thrown away and its for freeee :))) plus: wash your clothes and sheets more often with mild detergent and avoid plastic material on your skin!! good luck

Use it as a spot treatment and dot over any blemishes to help decrease inflammation, redness and scarring! 🤓- fel
Beauty Within yes but it’s very aggressive, how often should you use it/how much/etc?
And mix it with your night cream, two or three drops.
or with jojoba oil
Rameen Fatima take a cotton swab, wet it with water and then add a drop of tea tree oil on it. That way it’s properly diluted and is still effective. Spot treatment that works sis.

Anne Ostendorf hey! If you wanna treat dry acne prone skin then use cosrx good morning cleanser or krave beauty’s face wash, follow it up by laneige cream refiner toner or klairs toner and then apply klairs midnight blue calming cream or etude house 2x barrier intensive cream!
P.s use klairs freshly juiced vitamin drops after your toner at night and for exfoliation use cosrx pads once in a week!
Thanks me later :)
I have just found these videos and I'm so happy it happened and somebody is ACTUALLY showing what really works, and not just "buy my creams and it will heal your face." Bcs that doesn't work (ofc...), but this... This does. Thank you for these videos
Thank you so much for actually giving an explanation as to why every step is important instead of just going through the steps. I also love the graphics, they add extra understanding. Subscribed!
While steaming provides multiple benefits to enhance the facial process, opening the pores is not one of them. Steam is used to soften the skin to make extractions easier to perform and less painful. In this scenario, the pore is not expanding; the impaction is loosening. Steaming introduces moisture to the skin, creating a more absorptive canvas for product application. Enzymes, acids, and retinoids all work more effectively when applied to freshly steamed skin - again, not because pores are more open, but because the moisturized skin more readily absorbs these ingredients. Because steam is intensely hydrating, it softens the top layer of the epidermis, which aids in exfoliating dead skin cells and promoting cell renewal.
I completely agree about the sugar thing!!! In December, I ate SOOOOOOO much sugar. Like toooooooo much. I went from having a pretty balanced diet to eating a bunch of sugar in one month, and I believe (along with the cold, dry weather) that that's what made me breakout like CRAZY. I have never had this bad of a breakout in my entire life and I was (am) devastated. I get white heads every day and my acne was inflamed. It got even WORSE after I tried the neutrogena gel moisturizer. Since I have oily dehydrated skin, I thought the gel would be fine but it honestly should made me break out even more and I got breakouts on my cheeks, which NEVER breaks out that badly. In the beginning of February, my skin was so inflamed and pimples appeared every day and the hyperpigmentation was unreal. I bought the biore salicylic acid, pixi glow tonic, and clean and clear moisturizer with salicylic acid. This kind of made my skin clear up, but it ultimately also made my skin inflamed and very sensitive bc I was using so much AHA and BHA. I finally switched to the cerave for normal to oily skin and back to my witch hazel toner and continued to use the clean and clear salicylic acid (using sunscreen every day of course!!) and my skin has become significantly less inflamed, probably because these products are MUCH gentler than the other ones I was using. I also added The Ordinary niacinamide + zinc and it's also controlled my oiliness and inflammed skin. My biggest issue is still whiteheads, acne, and hyperpigmentation. I ordered the coxrx centella blemish cream along with the azaelic acid suspension from TO. Hopefully these work to return my skin back to what it was before I had this huge break out. My advice: don't eat 3 cinnabuns in one month LOL. If anyone has oily/combo skin and has advice, pls lmk! I also am curious how azaelic acid has worked for other people!
The fact that you guys explained everything makes it easier for us to follow the rules. It's amazing!
Thank you so much for this video!! My skin is my the biggest reason why i have extremely low self esteem, so I'm gonna try these few tips and hopefully things will start to clear up a bit 😁👍
how do you describe smart things so good
You guys are saving my skin. I have already seen a difference in my skin thanks to the tips you guys give. I always look forward to your videos. I can't always afford the products you guys talk about. But it is easy to find dupes or similar things! :)
Awww that is so so awesome to hear! We love it when you guys share your skincare experiences with us, we're so happy! Yes dupes are great, and we don't always have to spend a lot of money to get good products, a lot of the inexpensive ones are soo good too! Let us know what your faves are too! 😊- fel
Ruth Smith hey! Were you able to fine a dupe for the pore control serum?
Your skin is so perfect! If I had your guys’ skin I wouldn’t even wear foundation
Yes me too
They are already wearing foundation.. "no makeup makeup look".. pores are blurred in camera. Since they are giving you an idea of clean poreless skin. See clips in between, it's their skin. Hope that doesnt offend you for me replying
@@zareentamboli9787 - Their skin looks really good in those in-between clips too, though. At least compared to mine... :/
@@Avarioth yeah may be. Coz i have a similar skin and I dont find it perfect
same
I never drink soda, have sweets once a month or so but this year I've been going ham on the sweets and my skin is starting to break out for the first time in years! 😭
im a guy with no interest in this stuff that came here for some high level in skin care, in my 30's now so its been a while since i dealt with acne & stuff but this was a great overview and refresher. exactly what i was looking for.
Thank you for doing the “dirty work” (looking up information for each video.)
Your channel helps me feel more beautiful and normal. Sometimes it can feel like I am the only one with large pores, dehydrated skin, dark circles etc. thanks for reminding me I am not alone :)
I support you ladies! Keep the videos coming!
I have been using the clarins pore control serum and it really works!!!! I’ve never used any other product (and I’ve tried a lot!) that actually works on my pores so I’m glad you guys mentioned this amazing product! Love it ❤️
me : i need that Clarins Serum!!
Clarins : $56.00
me : ya know .. i think i’ll just.. get something else
Lmaoo😂
niacinamide by the ordinary is great for stabilising sebum production and also has great hydration for the skin
Get cho bandz up
$56.00 I’ll have to think about that….
Basically:
Scrub you face really really well
Use pore control
Cut sugar
Thank you. I don't have large pores right now but I know I will have them in the future because if genetics.
Thanks!
enlarged pores really makes me unconfident of myself everytime I need speak to other people that I'm not close with. Actually I'm planning to create a video of my noticeable/enlarged pores on my face. Like a journey of myself to minimize my big pores. Yes I will upload soon.. btw will I find a solution? 😅😅😅
Where's the vid sis🙄🤠
Honestly yall dont know how informative you guys have been. Much love💖💋
Your videos are so informative, especially with the graphic visuals. How do you make the medical/ skin graphics for your videos?!
Thanks guys! Amazing.. especially about sugar.. Have been preaching it since years to my family and friends, but nobody listens.
when i think about my large pores i wanna cut my skin off -______-
Also afterwards applying 4% benzoyl peroxide cleanser for ~2 minutes on the spot and some of the surrounding areas and then rinsing it is VERY effective for me. They essentially never come back since doing that (using a leave-on BP will often dry the hell out of the skin, and it gets in the way of the rest of the skincare routine).
I then leave the extracted sites to settle (coagulate, any fluid to stop), do my dental stuff, then finish my skincare routine after that. Don't want to spread bacteria around if we can help it, because that leads to more acne.
14:00 - Oh, and sugar doesn't cause inflammation. When comparing a low and high sugar-intake diet, WITH calories being equal, they are the same as far as inflammation. Eating ANYTHING will cause inflammation, very temporarily (no effect on long-term inflammation). If you eat too many calories, regardless of what it's comprised of, then you'll get inflammation, because excess body fat causes inflammation.
Unless all that is required for an acne response is that initial temporary spike... I don't know. I just know that the overall inflammation levels will be completely fine.
can you do a fungal acne skincare routine?
I would love a video on 'para-medical skin care'. I have experienced acne at it's various different stages from really severe to just a couple of breakouts around my time of the month. After a really intensive skin journey using a para-medical brand - dmk skincare which involved regular enzyme therapy and a home skin care routine my acne got better but then my progress plateaued. Eventually I started taking minomycin which is an antibiotic that fights infections within the body such as acne. I am happy to say my skin has gotten much better and I am using a simple routine: QV Gentle Face Cleanser, Cosrx BHA Blackhead Power Liquid and finishing off with Squalane Oil by Olivearrier (in conjunction with antibiotics) but I'm just curious as to whether these paramedical brands are more/less effective than what is readily available on the market. Love your videos by the way - I feel you guys are well informed and really take into acocunt the science behind skincare.
They're literally so freaking cute
You are Right! I did everything in order to get rid my acne until the age of 29. I used accutane, birth pills, every skincare product. But right after I cut out sugar all of my acne was gone. I still have pores so that I will use the technics you advise. Thank you very much 🙏🏼😘
I cut sugar for 2 months and I didn't see a result yet
My girlfriend told me to watch this
now i have clear skin and she's mad pls help
Hee Hee cause i have nicer skin
Good one XD
Oasis D B. Hhjjkkjoooo
Oasis D ohh damn XD
Y'all guys only use 1 soap and have clear skin! Why can't I?
I've watched so many videos on how to treat my pores problems and this is where I clearly understand really very well. Subscribed ♥️
I love the way you included the sponsored product! You declared it from the beginning and it was so interesting. More youtubers should do it that way!
I used the Sisley global perfect pore serum for a while and it helped my pores to clear up... But it was so expensive :( Will definitely consider Clarins next time, I am madly in love with the lotus face oil... Most of their products are hits in my opinion :)
Oh my god I used the tool on my nose and it feels sooo smooth and looks soo smooth,since I always had a problem with fungal acne thanks sm for this 💕
Why is it that the only place your pores look huge is your bloody face and pores actually aren't huge on the rest of your body, if my face could be as poreless as my ass that would be awesome 😂
lolly poppy you should be grateful that our face pores doesn’t become like body pores when we get goosebumps😂😂😂 Imagine 😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
Be grateful you don't get cellulite on your face tho :]]
For face steaming, what I’ve done is boil water on the stove and pour it in a large glass bowl but only filling it halfway or so. That way, when I put my face over it, my face won’t touch the water in the bowl since it’s not filled. I also draped myself with a towel too to contain the steam and concentrate it on my face!
Can you talk something about the direction/gesture of doing different stage of skin care process? I’ve heard that we should do swirls while cleansing and tap while apply toner. How about the rest?
Fion Chow oooo heck yes!!
So I’m currently in school to be an esthetician. During the cleanse swirling is the go to, just make sure to always move in an upwards motion. Toner you can rub or pat on but again if you rub it on make sure it’s in an upwards motion. Any other products such as a serum, moisturizer and sunscreen you should always pat in.
Quarantine is the best time to learn more about skincare
Yess
Totally with you on the reducing sugar advice! But as a nutritionist I wanted to add that your body doesn’t differentiate between table sugar and honey/maple syrup, so they’re not “healthier” alternatives unfortunately 😉
Rachel White it is if you’re a diabetic like me lol
ehhhh i don’t know about that, organic honey has a lot of health benefits whereas processed sugar is just plain bad for you
Fruit is but don't eat to much because fruit is high in natural sugar.
Omg so sad:(
the hot washcloth is my favorite for easing pimples out of the skin without hurting my skin. I leave it on for a few minutes and usually the gunk will work itself out and I can just wipe it away
I have tried cutting out sugar so many times, but I always fall back into my old habits.
Doctor Anne decide what's more important to you and then cut the habits
@@mr.e5441 - It's not that simple. Deciding what's more important is establishing a goal (which habit to cut). The difficulty is in REACHING said goal. Addictions to various substances wouldn't be such a widespread problem, if the solution was simply to decide what's important and then stop it, lol. It's like saying it's easy to become a rocket scientist. You "just" have to memorize things xP.
Alex Gabriel it actually is that simple for this type of problem, most people overcomplicate things. Now the rocket scientist part is a different story.
@@mr.e5441 I actually ate a lot of sugar when I was younger and by a lot I mean A LOT. Then I tried cutting it out of my diet and the cravings or the energy slumps weren't even the worst thing. I started getting actual headaches and it took about a month until they stopped. I managed not to eat any refined sugar for almost a year before I caved in again. Of course part of it is the determination to take the first step, but with any addiction the first hurdle are always withdrawal symptoms. They do heck to your determination.
Secondly, cutting a habit isn't setting a goal for myself that I want to reach. There simply IS no goal. It's a day to day determination that you have to keep up. There's no "one small muffin won't harm" if you want to stay strong.
Lastly - cutting refined sugar doesn't just mean cutting the obvious ones. Nowadays, so many products you can buy already contain refined sugar as an ingredient that it restricts your possibilities.
If you are so strong-willed that you can simply decide what's good for you and act accordingly, congratulations. But if you expect everyone to be the same, you'll be sorely disappointed.
Cut out your sugar little by little. You dont need to cut everything at once. I was pretty much addicted to eating m&m's that have peanuts (the party size bag = about 64oz). It's a lot but I would be finishing the whole bag in less than a week, about 3-4 days. And was an unhealthy habit of mine but recently over the couple of months, I've been consuming less sugar than I would normally intake. I bought the party size bag of m&m's and havent finished it yet, which is good progress on my end because it means I'm not depended on them. I also try to buy food products that don't have added sugar or not so much added sugar. I love drinking my cranberry juice so it is important I find one that doesnt have any added sugar.
Also, eating more veggies and fruit could help reduce your sugar cravings. So I still eat some of the same things like m&m's but my intake is less. And if there was a scenario where I had to drink soda, I would drink sprite since it's one of the few that has less sugar than most sodas. But I dont really drink sodas as much.
i love how i can always trust you guys to have clear and concise videos, have been watching you guys for a year now. I hope you guys do this together for a while :)
I love your both hair look! Please qe need a hair care routine too 😍🙏
Yeeees! That would be great. Maybe also talking about all those supplements people take, helpful or not, and what actually helps with shiny, healthy hair and prevents hairloss, etc.?
@@BallerinaMrs yes you're right i hope that ! Becouse suppelement realy help hair and skin too i use before omega 3 capsules and it help very well .
Sugar and hormones greatly effect your acne. I am a 14 year old girl who (for the most part) trys to stay on keto!
I used to have really bad acne before I started dieting. Once I started, my acne really started to clear up with my skin routine. If I start my period, BAM I get a giant pimple (the one that hurts). These things can really affect your skin.
Tip: if you love soda like I do, drink carbonated water! My dad makes our own carbonated water and I sometimes add no carb sweetener. (Use a sweetener that doesn't have any maltodextrin, sucralose, sucrose ect. in it because that raises insulin levels which equals ACNEEE. Instead use monkfruit, stevia, or erythritol based sweeteners. But beware, it makes you have the beanie doozies like crazyyy!)
Could you guys make a video about body lotion and care for body/skin (not just face)?
Tips on how to properly care after shower, what kind of body wash to use, ingredients to look for, ingredients to avoid, scrub or not scrub, body skin barrier 101, etc...
What foundation are you girls wearing? Or is it what your using underneath the foundation? Your skin looks beautiful!
Hey there! I was wondering what your thoughts are on jade rollers. The purpose of them is that they are able to stay cool for a long period of time and people roll it as the wear a sheet mask. You explained in your video that if anything cool touches your face, it constrict your pores. If sheet the mask (which is always naturally cold) and applying the cold rolling jade on to the face, would I not be absorbing as much serum? I’ve been thinking about slightly warming my masks so that my pore wills stay open. What are your thoughts?
They did a video on them early November 2018
Thank you so much for these videos, it has helped me so much. One thing I would like to see however is more affordable options. I understand you're advertising products but it's a lot of money to be spending especially for a newbie trying things out and seeing what works best for their skin.
Why is bread so bad when it is that delicious? 😭😭
Any cruelty-free recommendations for a pore clearing/minimising serum?
Please do your own skincare brand 😭😭🙌🏽🙌🏽...o would definitely brought it all!! Love you so much guys 😍😍😍
😍😍😍😍😍
There is sparkling water. Also an actual serving of Juice is 4pz not 8oz. So sometimes portion control is key. Or add a couple splashes of juice to your water for flavor.
I love your videos I learn so much!! Can you do one with reviewing drugstore/ cheaper skin care products ?
Trust that this information that I'm about to give u makes ur skin clearer.
I usually steam my face with a towel soaked in hot water two times and then I clean my face with some scrub after that I steam it again while washing the scrub away.
WALLA CLEAR SKIN BAMM !!!!
Make video on blackhead remover strips..they are good or not which one is good.
Not good
The little ‘black heads’ that you use those for are actually 100% natural and you shouldn’t use one because it actually makes the pores expand.
Thank you all for your suggestions
Please make a video on how to take care of inflammatory or nodulo-cystic acne
Can u do a video of your holy grail products?
yes! Felicia and I were just talking about filming something like this 🤓 -Ro
I love you girls!!! Thank you so much for your advice. Im. A guy who is in his early 40s and my pores are getting bigger is seems with covid wearing masks and ur tips are so helpful to removing the debris .thank you!!! 😁
This video is amazing! So happy I bought my facial steamer
Literally all my stubborn skin issues are clogged pores. And minimal brown scars. 😂😂 I love how when in doubt, this channel helps one out. ✔ Thank you so much!
I have long had a tea tree oil bottle, completely pure & natural, though I've always heard people say & I've read about it, how it should be diluted, so in fear of this, I simply wouldn't use it. Anyone know if it could simply be added as is or how should it be diluted?
Not related to the video, but I’m excited for the part 3 of the hype product review 😍
Glad to hear coz so are weeee hehhehe 😍 - fel
One of the best breakdowns on pore. Thank you.
Drink water >:(
I started to drink a lot of water lately and moisture! It makes a huggggeeeee difference!!!
I appreciate the amount of depth that you guys go into in these videos, it's very informative! 😊
It's really help i love how you're explained every imPOREtant detail 🤣 thankyou so much!
Super helpful. Love the switch between your faces and diagrams
Steaming really unclogs my pores and helps my clay maks work much more better🙂
yess steaming is magical and so relaxing! -Ro
You put on the clay masks before or after steaming?
@@tranngoc8395 i steam my face before applying the mask
Ice clean wash cloth soaked in hot water with special attention to sore spots. Works every time especially if it’s done often.
Wow! This video was such a great informative video! I love how you take the time to research and give us background information for basically whatever we need. Thanks. 😊
Do you know what to do with scalp problems? 😭
Like what shampoos to use, serums, etc
Cause I've been dealing with bad dandruff for the past few months. It's also causing me hair loss 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Thanks for this video,could you do how you apply products? I feel like the way I apply is incorrect and make my skin congestion
thanks for remind me about reducing sugar intake, fruits are so much better for our health as also they contain the fibre required to process its natural sugar.
This... was actually interesting and informative. Thank you.
Last part of the video was what i needed to hear the most.
Does sweating by excercise clear up the debris in our pores @Beauty Within?
yes it does and it increases blood circulation which is good for our skin

How about using porepack to clean blackheads or whiteheads? is it safe or is it damaging our skin layer? Thank you! such an informative video!
I love both of you together
PLEASE do a video on fungal acne !! I have skin colored bumps on my face and it looks gross . :((
Love the content you guys put out and the products and information you provide I was wondering if you guys could do a video over beauty tools like the tok stick and wayskin and items like that?
hi Nina! absolutely! we'll look into these :) -Ro
Please do a video on how to balance and calm dehydrated skin and recommended skin care products to use. My face gets SO hot & oily and my nose turns bright red and it's so embarrassing when I'm in public
Sugar is the most addicting substance in the world. I recently started having back acne and I don’t know how to control that especially when my period is close
I use organic Konjac sponges with my face wash. ive tried a few different kinds and I find the ones that work the best are NEO BATH & SPA Konjac sponges I got on amazon.
