Tbh I think people who have persistent forms of acne take better care of their skin than people who don't since we've all been trying to get rid of of it for so long
Alex Meyer it’s so true. I used to wash my face 3 times a day and exfoliate and I had adult onset acne. I had to go on birth control and I think aging just helped
This is so true. I am 61 and had acne until menopause. I took very good care of my skin always and I will say this, the acne is gone now and I have smooth skin... No wrinkles because I always kept my skin covered. I just had to wait until I was old lol.
I saw that comment and my reaction was the same as yours. Who the fuck are they to be saying ANYTHING about anyone? It's like when you're a chubby person and people yell insults, they don't know that persons story but they still feel like they need to put you down. Sometimes people suck at being decent human beings.
I just clicked on the video. I read the comments on your thumbnail and it disgusts me how people who don't suffer from acne don't fucking understand. I remember I couldn't walk out the house without make up, I was in a dark place. It does take time. But now I'm like for what? Pimples don't define me.
This is exactly why I follow you. I struggle with adult acne and the insecurities that come with it. No one really gets it or the things that come with severe acne. It's so weird to say but representation - besides color or ethnicity - acne representation is important to me because if you can be confident in your skin, so can I. It's as if your acne defines your credibility. I can trust and relate to your recommendations. It's like your blessing in disguise! I love you girl
DrChin Strap me too. I was Like oh shit. A foundation video where she actually has stuff to cover. My girl! It cracks me up when someone with practically flawless skin says something is full coverage. Like I'm going to take advice from you. Lol.
I paused and read the comments at the beginning... I wish I hadn’t. They made me cry. You are so gorgeous and strong. I’m glad you are able to rise above the nonsense people say. Can’t wait to see how this journey works out for you. ❤️
Some things that i learned while on accutane: 1. If you really feel obligated to exfoliate, use a towel and some warm water to very gently exfoliate peely skin. 2. Aquaphor 24/7. Drink lots of water 3. Cereve for sensitive skin works well while on accutane. Or olay gentle clean. It never irritated me. 4. Always practice self-care. My depression/anxiety got much worse on the medication. Always prioritize your mental health/learn to treat yourself Best of luck to you! Im excited to see your accutane journey!
I’m real damn happy you didn’t censor the names on those comments in the beginning of the video. May they feel appropriately shamed. Hoping this new venture works out well for you. Glad you were able to move beyond be reaction you had after the first pill.
While watching this video I asked my 5 year old daughter, "Do you think the girl in the video is beautiful?" She said "uh huh...but do you know she has pimples?" I said "I do know that but she is still beautiful" and my daughter looked at the screen and said "yes she's beautiful mom" even tho I'm not a fan of most people, I love that my daughter loves people so much and sees beauty in everyone
Thank you ladies! Our world today is filled with so much cruelty and cold hearted people...i try to teach both my kids about respect and hurting other people's feelings...my daughter is in young 5s, she has a little boy in her class who is extremely overweight but so precious and so sweet...i tried to explain to her about how some people are mean to others and make them feel sad if they are big and that I bet it would make him feel happy if she tried to be his friend (especially with my daughter being a strong personality and already being "popular" at school and daycare)...well, a few weeks into school, that boys grandmother thanked my daughter for being his friend...its scary raising kids and I truly hope she stays this strong but loving girl even as she gets older
My 3 year old son started blushing when I showed him this video... he thinks taylor is totally cute 😍❤ he doesn't even see something 'weird' or different... because we never call it out... if it's normal to us it's normal to him...
I am finishing up my 5th month of Accutane and it has absolutely changed my life in every way possible. I never knew how incredible it would be to have clear skin, as I have had terrible acne for the past 6 years. I applaud you for being so transparent in your journey. Just remember that you don't need to explain your reasoning for going on Accutane. This is a decision for you and you only. Good luck!
d Don't buy into the stuff you see on the internet. It's a very small chance that you'll have a severe reaction, same with every medication. Any doctor or pharmacist will tell you the same. The internet makes everything seem a lot worse than it is.
The corners of my mouth were kinda flaky but I used loads of Aquaphor to combat it. My skin was fine as long as I used a daily moisturizer! For me, the side effects were way worth not having acne anymore!
Wow. Those comments you popped up real quick were just so disturbingly rude. Humanity has just gone so far downhill. You are beautiful! And it makes me so sad that people would bombard you with comments like that. Gosh. Cheers to you for keeping your head up and remaining such a giving and genuine person. You deserve all the success in the world, Taylor.
People have no idea what acne does to a person's confidence. I had cystic acne for 17 years before I finally was able to find the right medication for it. The older I got, the worse it got. The first thing I would do in the morning would be to look at new breakouts. I didn't even want to leave my house when my skin was having a bad day. I have watched you for a long time Taylor, and I can't wait to take this journey with you. Thank you so much for sharing it with us. We 🖤 you!!!
I'm a 23 year old dude watching your video. I have gone on isotretinoin about a year and a half ago. I was quite hesitant about it, because of all the "horrible side effects" people talk about, but thankfully my experience with the medicine was fairly mild. I did get really dry lips and some random nosebleeds, but nothing major. Hope your experience is just like that if not better. Certainly you already know this, but you're a charming and beautiful human being. The process is lengthy, but with time your skin will improve. Good luck (:
Accutane was a lifesaver for my skin. Just some tips: -Aquaphor will be your best friend during the course. Use it as facial and body moisturizer, lip balm, etc. -Drink lots of water! You'll save your skin. -Don't be discouraged by the initial breakout. It will start to clear up by the 2nd to 3rd month. -Tarte's Rainforest of the Sea foundation was what I used during my course. It helped a lot with the dryness and I was able to layer it without any problems. -If you have any questions the Accutane Subreddit will help you immensely. I hope the course goes well!
Blistex Medex lip balm has been a holy grail for me on accutane! Your hands can get reallyyyy dry so make some to use some heavy duty eczema cream. Also, the Lush “Bunny Moon” mask and First Aid Beauty 5-in-1 Bouncy face mask have been incredibly helpful in keeping my face moisturized.
I can't say how accurate this comment is! People use to say the same thing to me, stop wearing makeup, let your skin breathe, drink water, wash your face...ughhhh. Do you really think I didn't try these things?! Anyway Rainforest of the sea is exactly what I used while on accutane, along with Aquaphor!!!! Accutane saved my skin, just finished it in July. & I still haven't gotten any pimples. I can't wait to see your results!!!!
Mylena's Beauty Room holy shit. I don't have acne, never been on accutane or anything, but have extremely dry skin..not sure why I never thought to get a freaking humidifier. My daughter has severe eczema and I always notice when she visits her dad in Florida her skin clears up and I've always said I wish I lived somewhere humid because of that. Lol why oh why did I never think of a humidifier?! Thank you! :)
Accutane is a life saver!!I don’t even worry about going out without makeup anymore!! I would have never done that before accutane!! Also, having had acne myself, I don’t judge people with acne because I’ve been there myself 😀Good luck Taylor, you are beautiful with or without acne!
I'm not even sure where to start. I've been watching you for so long, you have actually changed my life. I am a fellow makeup loving adult with extensive adult cystic acne. I'm 26 years old now and have had acne since I was 12. I have tried EVERYTHING from prescription creams, expensive products, drugstore products, diet changes, hormone testing, naturopath testing- you name it. I've exhausted my bank account and my damn soul trying to find something that helps. Something about seeing you up there with the top makeup gurus doing your own damn thing being exactly who you are has inspired me beyond words. You've shown me acne doesn't mean I can't wear makeup just the same as the clear skin girls. You've shown me acne doesn't mean I'm not beautiful. You've changed my attitude from "my acne is ruining my life" to "it's just acne and it doesn't define me" I needed this today, I really did
I waited to comment on this because I wanted you to see it without it getting flooded in the rest of the comments. I cannot believe people have the audacity to say such hurtful things. The human race can be one of the most disgusting, insensitive and the meanest species on the face of the earth. Thankfully there are empathetic, sympathetic and loving people that exist and shine through all the bull shit the negative people have to say. You honestly are an inspiration. I've always been into makeup all my life but never "needed" it. After having my son my skin took a turn for the worst. I found myself watching your videos at 3am nursing my son after crying about how my face was covered in big bulbous painful and red acne. You so helped me build up my confidence again. You are BEAUTIFUL. with or without makeup. Your heart and soul can be felt through each of your videos. I am sorry that people have had such horrendous things to say to you. It's mind blowing and makes me feel ashamed to be a part of the human race. But then I remember there are people out there like you and that's a breath of fresh air. Thank you Taylor, for putting yourself out there. For showing us the parts of you that you may not like (acne). For stay true to who you are and always showing your appreciation. You are a one of a kind Taylor. As a fan of yours, I absolutely love who you are and I'm thankful I stumbled across you during the times I needed you most. ❤️
Those comments posted at the beginning on the video hurt my heart. I'd like to THANK YOU for the videos and your positive outlook on everything....positive is contagious....thank you for helping those of us with some.of the same issues!
It boggles my mind when people come up so someone with, for example, severe acne, anxiety or insomnia, and gives them the MOST OBVIOUS piece of advice ever - I'm like, do you think I haven't tried it?! I understand that they are trying to be helpful most of the time, but how can they not realize that it's condescending. Like, if I had a friend who struggled with their weight, I wouldn't go up to them and be like "have you tried excercising and smaller portion sizes?" Never. Like I said, I remind myself that their comments are meant to be helpful. But saying that to someone with a severe case of something is like assuming that they don't know anything about their own condition. Sigh. 😩
I love you so much tayla, you're my inspiration. I had clear skin until I was 18 and then all of a sudden I got cystic acne, and had it so bad for 2 years I lost all my confidence and rarely left the house. I was so depressed and put down listening to people constantly telling me I need to do this, etc you know the drill. Then one day I found your channel and my life changed gave me back my confidence and helped me to love my skin. I have clear skin now but no matter what happens with my skin ill always be comfortable in it thanks to you 💙💙 I hope Accutane works for you. You're so beautiful inside and out acne or not 💙
brianna horen I tried so many things like antibiotics, face washes, spot treatments, homemade treatments, literally everything I could find . What worked in the end was cutting out all dairy and a cream from the doctor called duac, I used it for about 3 months, it cleared it up so much and then started using 5% benzoyl peroxide every night. I only use garnier miscellar water to remove my makeup/cleanse my face then apply the bp, its been clear for a few months now I get the odd white head but haven't gotten any cysts, mine were so painfull I had to sleep on my back every night cause lying on the pillow would make me cry in pain 😧 hope this helps you xx
Makeuphuney yes I have got some scars on my cheeks, like I have a lot of ice pick scars I think they're called, basically my pores are stretched and mishappen.. do you know what helps scars ? X
This is the first video of yours I have seen. I always see your thumbnails and I always thought you were gorgeous. I respect you so much for being a beauty RUclipsr, especially with all the jerks out there who love to assume things. I know how that feels.
Omg those comments on the thumb nail......people are cruel, but misery loves company so they need to cast it onto someone....i think you are beautiful any way you are, they don't know the struggle obviously!! Thank you for being an inspiration and so strong, they should just watch someone else!!
I’m on Accutane right now and the results have been great. I have some tips for you ! - bite beauty lip masks are amazing for chapped lips, stock up on really good lip balms - drink tons and tons of water. I found I’m very dehydrated, I get creases in my face now that look like wrinkles but go away once a drink lots of water. - Cetaphyl cleanser and moisturizer are a MUST. Anything else burns my skin. - eye drops for dry eyes - your acne will get worse before it gets better. Super dry flakey and uncomfortable . I seen major results after 2 months
I'm on my second round of accutane and can't use Cetaphil cleanser (it breaks me out), but the first aid beauty cleanser has done wonders for my sensitive skin and it is similar!
PandaBum Yes! I use the CeraVe cleanser alongside my FAB one and the moisturizing cream (the tub kind) and while I do have some dry areas, my skin isn’t super flaky or peeling. They’ve been my go-to since my first accutane round
I'm on Accutane too and I just want to add that don't worry if you don't see any improvement for a while. Up until the 4 month point I still had a lot of acne but then they went away.
A thick layer of Cetaphil Cream is a must!! Even on the lips (I know it feels weird to some people, but it helps a lot). I actually found the Cetaphil Cleanser too drying, so instead the Neutrogena Ultra Gentle cleanser in the cream formula has been one of my HG products even after Accutane because I have eczema, Seb Derm, and just overall very sensitive skin that produces a lot of oils but still feels tight and dry if I don't moisturize enough.
I'm so glad I found your channel. I'm 32 and I have had acne since I was 10! Pasty white/red splotchy skin, red head, blonde eyebrows and eyelashes...yeah make-up is not fun for me! For medical reasons I could never go on Accutane. Even though I am married, and now have a 6 month old baby girl, my skin is still a HUGE insecurity. It is depressing and still reduces me to tears at times. I'm encouraged by how you have embraced the skin you were given, and you haven't let it stop you from being a huge success and obviously doing what you love! I need to learn to love and embrace my skin, I don't want my daughter to learn to be insecure because of my poor example.
In the 90's there was a Neutrogena commercial where Mandy Moore did the typical slash of water across her already flawless face. It was my undoing. To the bathroom I ran with an abrasive kitchen sponge and tried to "scrub off" the acne. Living with acne sucks.
Girl. Don’t let ANYONE impact your decision to go on Accutane. You’ve paid your dues. You’ve tried everything under the sun. I went on Accutane when I was 17 after being in the same boat as you and it changed my life. Accutane was rough, but I do not regret it. It completely changed my skin and I’m now 25.
Kelsey Anna I don't have cystic acne, but I won't stop breaking out. I've been breaking out since I was 13 and now 24. Also does accutane help with acne scars?
Makeuphuney ugh I’m so sorry girl. I feel your pain. Accutane doesn’t help with existing acne scars. Definitely ask your dermatologist what she thinks is best!
I love the first portion of the video before I went on Accutane I suffered from depression related to acne. People with clear skin do not understand what it’s like to feel so ashamed or embarrassed to not look people in the eyes. I was so self conscious do what works for you!
It should be a law that if someone is going to leave a rude nasty comment on a video, they should have to use their real name and photo. Almost all of those nasty comments were fake names and no photos...just lame ass miserable people hiding behind a keyboard. I’m sorry you have had to deal with that. You don’t deserve it. You seem very sweet and I love your videos. I’m over 40 with decent skin so I’m probably not your typical viewer but I just enjoy your videos. You’re funny and honest and I appreciate that. I wish you the best of luck on your journey and hope you find the results that make you happy! Thank you for showing us how to embrace our true selves. You are beautiful!
Tamara Dungan you just mentioned all the things that go thru my mind! I'm 37and have fortunately always had decent skin, so I'm also probably not one of her typical viewers. I absolutely can not stand when people who have no photo leave the most disgusting comments about someone else's appearance....and just as bad is people who leave a nasty comment but have horrible spelling and grammar (and I'm not referring to typos lol).
Tamara Dungan I totally agree! The mean comments are usually always from somebody with no picture! I'm 35 years old and I just can't imagine being a young girl going thru all the craziness of being a teen and having some worthless piece of shit tell me that I'm ugly or that I need to wash my face or something! I'm so glad that we didn't have social media in our time growing up! I would have wanted to die if people sent me mean comments, I seriously would not have been able to handle it, so I give these kids a lot of credit these days
Girl. Good for you for not censoring the users making those comments. If you have the gall to insult someone, be prepared to have your identity tied to that mean comment. Ugh I don't understand insulting strangers who aren't hurting anyone or doing anything wrong. UGH.
I think people often times forget that genetics can be a HUGE factor in acne. My sister eats a very strict, very healthy diet and drinks water religiously but still suffers from horrible cystic acne like both of my parents did when they were younger. Eating healthy and drinking water doesn’t cure everything and I wish people would stop thinking it does 🙄
Those comments are simply ignorance. I lost count of how many times I was told not to wear so much face makeup yet it’s funny because I have acne on my chest and back and I don’t wear makeup there. People won’t understand unless they experience skin issues themselves.
Elizabeth Ventura No, it's just the assholes that voice their shit opinions all the time, but there are alot of people who have never had acne that understands it's not makeup or being dirty, like myself. But maybe that's just because I studied beauty therapy.
I'm approaching my mid 30's and still deal with acne. I too gett them on my chest all over my back and neck. I can not tell you how many times I've received "advice" or comments from people. I've learned to just brush it off and keep it moving.
Okay honestly I'm really happy for you???!!! 💕 Let me tell you a personal story, I used to have really bad cystic acne, it started when I was in middle school, around 11 years old and started with some pimples here and there and got really bad over the years and really painful, I suffered bullying and had really bad self esteem which caused me lots of depression and bad thoughts about life. In my case my family never supported me about going with a dermatologist because of money issues, and I always tried to fix things with drugstore products, natural remedies, hair away from the face, changing pillowcases every week and a MILLION of more things that never got rid of my acne entirely. Last year, now an university student, I encouraged myself, got a part time job and paid for my treatment with a dermatologist which led me to the gynecologist and several studies. I went on accutane for 6 months + birth control (which I still use) + several face products, and let me tell you that it's one of the best decisions I had ever taken. Now I'm a much more confident with a bare face and my esteem has gotten better, it might be true that I have lots of ice pick marks in my face, plus scaring and red marks but I don't get those painful cysts anymore and it makes me really happy. So from a person who dealt with acne for 12 years, let me tell you that accutane is a great option and I hope it works amazing for you as it went for me! 😊
The only RUclipsr to tell me acne is normal, okay to have, and teaches me to not let it affect my life bc it’s uncontrollable. I’ve been struggling with cystic acne through out all of high school, with it being the worst rn as a senior. Seeing all my classmates growing out of their acne with effortlessly clear skin, or never having had acne at all, makes me feel inferior and frustrated at times. But watching your videos has helped me so much both with makeup and self esteem. I’m now at a place where I can feel completely normal with out makeup on my face even when I have blaring acne and scaring all over my face. Honestly couldn’t have been here with out your online support. Thank god for the community you’ve created.
As a fellow acne sufferer I can see the pain in your eyes. All events occasions and memories are marked by how bad or good my skin was for me. But I dont see defeat and that gives me hope.
I’m so glad #1 you were confident enough to put yourself out there like that. You have no idea how much you have inspired others! My daughter had really bad cystic acne. We tried multiple treatments for 2 years before Accutane. Accutane for 9 months finally cleared her up, but it was tough. She wouldn’t leave the house without a full face of makeup prior. Her face clearing up gave her so much more confidence. Thank you for rising above all the hate and persevering! 💜
I second every positive comment 😊. As someone who has cystic acne, it means a lot to have someone talk about their journey and I'm glad we all get to come along on yours.
I have very bad blackheads & hormonal cystic acne..I hear comments all the time too. But watching your videos makes me feel comfortable with it. You’re awesome. I love you ❤️
As someone who has had acne for a decade i really appreciate this video. I've struggled for so long and have been insecure and you spreading awareness really matters
I've been having such a rough patch of time lately. Today was especially rough, so I kept refreshing my page until your video popped up because it literally was the only thing I've been looking forward to all day. I love your channel and content. Thank you for quality videos and reviews. Your voice is also incredibly soothing and comforting.
Melissa hola hope your day/night gets better- you are beautiful! Depending what's up sometimes I feel silly complimenting looks when other things may be more important- but you really are gorgeous and things will always get better:)
Acne is one heck of a mental and emotional distress and going on accutane is the only thing that helped me. So glad to hear that you’ve taken this step. Was awaiting this video ❤️
I struggled with acne for 10 years since 5th grade a severe cystic acne during my early 20s. I was on accutane and it was the greatest thing I ever did for my skin. Accutane IS a serious and I did suffer crazy effed up side effects (extremely dry butthole, severe constipation, and vivid, gross, messed up nightmares) but it was for 6 months only. Now I can do stuff like leave the house without foundation on, not worry about acne that literally pulsates and forms clusters of 4-5 "friends" looking like inch big warts on my face, be careless and sleep in makeup if I'm too tired, etc. I haven't gotten cystic acne ever since and it's been 4 years! You're gonna have great results but just beware of gross/crazy side effects. Love you Tayla!
so happy for you. my story is identical to yours. i took my last accutane pill today after being on it for 11.5 months! hopefully this is done and over with!
I understand you willing to get rid of acne, I just want you to know that when I look at you I see much more than acne, I see a gorgeous woman that happens to have acne, but yeah, it's a feeling from within and I hope you get good results with the medication. I watch you bc I like your personality and your video style, everything is well explained with a good humor and dedication, acne or scars are not a major point for me. Hugs from Brazil :)
You are literally one of the most beautiful people here on youtube. When i suffered from acne, and i still do, your videos were there to cheer me up. You were so real, and still so beautiful. You inspire me so much.
I was on accutane as a teenager bc i was so desperate, now my skin is quite well, just still textured. I wish your channel existed back then. I was so insecure and unconfident, you are amazing, girl ❤ love from germany. hope your accutane journey is as comfortable as possible
People are just ignorant and rude. You are stunning dear. Accutane helped me in my mind twenties. It was the only thing that actually worked! Good luck and can't wait to see your results!!
Literally went to dermatologist today and was told my only option left is accutane and I’m terrified. Watching all of the videos in this playlist, thank you for making these. I cried almost all day after my appointment.
Accutane was the best thing I've ever done for my skin. I would seriously do it over again if I had to. I suffered from acne for about 3.5 years and then couldn't take it anymore. My skin never got worse before it got better, my skin cleared within 3 weeks of being on it. The only major side effect I had from it was dry skin/lips. Just thought I would add that since people love to share the most scariest stories about accutane. It changed my life, and I hope it works for you as well too!
I wish mine didn’t get worse before it got better😭 my skin is worse than before I started accutane (I’ve only been on it for a month). I really hope I get the same result as you🤞🏼
Mikilea everyone is different! I’m sure your end result will still be great. I know it sucks while you’re on it and your skin is a dry flaky mess but it’ll be so worth it. Good luck!
Same! I would do it over again 100 times. Just finished my 6 months in august. It has changed my entire life. The side effects were minimal. Just chapped lips but nothing unbearable! It’s soooo worth it!
You are a very mature and accomplished woman for your age Taylor. xx I'm 37yrs old and currently going through this acne and cystic acne (almost no space in my face) and there is absolutely nothing no one as in no one can do about it. Heck it makes me cry all the time and sometimes I don't even want to go to work but I know once I am done with my treatment (when, I don't know) my moon face and acne face will go away and will eventually go back to normal. I have always been acne prone because of my sensitive skin but since I started my treatment almost 4 months ago now, it went berserk. Oh well I rather be alive and have moon face, swelling, loosing my hair and my acne everywhere than be normal but be six feet under. That's what I tell myself anyway 😊. I look forward for your journey videos. xx Good Luck Taylor
Bless your heart sweetie. Hang in there. With your spirit and outlook I have a feeling it's gonna work out for you in the end. You deserve for it to. Be patient and your time will come💜
I'm saying a prayer for you 💞 I know what it's like when something is taken from you, you just hope for the best and helpless, can't do nothing about it that has any effect. I've heard awesome things about sulfur soap, probably old news for you though. I'll pray you'll get peace of mind and an effective way to get rid of it, don't ever lose hope! I don't know if you know this, so I'm just going to say this even though I understand you probably aren't in need of people giving you advice, but I'm certain that super sensitivity to gluten causes adult acne, it might not have any other signs or symptoms. Sorry. I'm going now, stay tough
You are a smart , humble and generous woman beautiful inside and out Goodluck Taylor !! Wish you all the best! 👍🏽😙 pimple is not disgusting but the society is
I really do admire you for having confidence with acne. I'm struggling with my acne and confidence right now, and watching your videos help me a lot. I have a dermatologist appointment tomorrow, and I hope Accutane will be an option for me! I'm soooo happy for you and wish you the best with your Accutane journey. ☺️
Please do monthly updates! A lot of your viewers suffer from acne, and I think it would be helpful for everyone to see the side effects each month :D Good luck!!
I think it's pretty terrible that you have to add a "disclaimer" about Accutane. For fucks' sake, you're a grown ass woman, you don't owe anyone an explanation for your choices about your medical care and treatment. Even if this was your first choice treatment (which it's never anyone's, and no dermatologist would allow that), it's no one else's business. I think it's unbelievable that people feel so entitled these days that they think they can say such hurtful shit to a person and then also criticize the person when they take charge of the situation. Good for you for being you, Taylor, and best of luck on your Accutane journey! May all those nasty side effects keep their distance!
I think she only added the disclaimer for possible legal reasons. As Accutane is a medication, she can't recommend it in case someone takes her recommendation and then gets bad side effects or damage from it and then sues her or takes legal action. Same with the videos where people have to say "just because I don't like a product doesn't mean it won't work for you..." - it is sometimes to avoid possible legal action later. But I totally agree with you - so glad Taylor is taking this step!!!
I agree, but since it is a medication that requires a prescription, it's not like anyone can just go grab it on a whim because she used it, recommended it, condoned it, etc. If someone saw this video and assumed that this medication would be a cure-all with no possibility of negative side effects, etc., well, they're an idiot for starters and they probably deserve what they get. But if they went to their dermatologist to demand it, and their dermatologist gave in to their demands without following the appropriate protocols, that's actually on the dermatologist for not sticking to the standard of care, it's not the fault of a random RUclipsr. Even in our litigious society, you'd be hard-pressed to find a judge who would actually let a suit like that go through. And the reason RUclipsrs give the other disclaimer about products is because 1. they don't want followers giving them grief about "how DARE you NOT like that product!" blahblah (because, god forbid, everyone has a different opinion) and 2. they don't want to be sued or blacklisted by brands for giving a negative review and "slandering" them, it's not because of a potential lawsuit from a follower who had a bad skin reaction to a recommended product.
My son did 2 rounds of accutane and it worked , he was 16 when he started and he was so happy with the results. I left the decision to him and supported him in what ever he decided. He was fortunate-that he had no bad side effects . Thank you for speaking out about this as you said it effects everyone differently. Have a fabulous day .
I struggled with acne in the past and I also struggled with self confidence and depression. I tried a ton of acne products too and eventually it finally cleared. I still have some breakouts, but overall, my skin has finally regulated itself. I think you're beautiful and this video was extremely informational.
I would never tell someone how to take care of their face. That’s rude. Especially, if you didn’t ask for advise. I have pretty good skin, but that’s bc I have good genes. GOOD LUCK GIRL SENDING POSITIVE VIBES
Good luck to you! I hope all goes well. I feel that your acne journey will be helping many others. I’m so glad that there is someone out there willing to show the reality of severe and intense acne. So much shame and ridicule have been thrown at those who are not considered “normal”, which is a joke, because like, WHO is normal? I am rooting for you to do very well and hope you find the cause and the cure for your acne. You are sure to help out many others with this issue. I’ve noticed that humans tend to be an imitative species, and having a confident woman to model, is exceptionally helpful. You Go Taylor!!!
First of all, you are so breath takingly gorgeous, holy crap. Secondly, accutane completely changed my life. I suffered from severe acne all my life...I wouldn't even talk to anyone, let alone look them in the eye because of my skin. I tried everything under the sun and nothing worked. Finally I was put on accutane and...it saved my skin. I've been off it for about 5 years now and my skin is still so clear...It truly was a life saver for me. Best of luck on your accutane journey!!
Hi! Good luck with your treatment. I'm from Portugal and is the third time I do accutane (in Portugal we didn't call that way, but after I google it, is the same), my skin was must worst than your, not only in my face but in my arms and chest to. I had done the 20mg treatment, is the strongest in Portugal, and the side effect is not very good, I bleed a lot of my nose, always with many wounds. But it's worth, believe. Rigth now my skin is clear of any acne, and I feel must more confidence.
I'm sorry that you have to endure these horrible comments. You are a beautiful person...not just on the outside. You truly have helped people and I hope you know that. I appreciate you sharing your story. XX
I JUST finished 4 months of Accutane and let me tell you, it works. Some rare cases it doesn’t work for people but if done right, you will be cured. Stock up on chapstick and the Bite Beauty agave lip mask and drinks loads of water. You’ll get through it! I also made an Instagram account just for my treatment of accutane and I loved it. The accutane community on instagram is bomb. Everyone helps each other and it’s awesome to see how much your skin improves over the months. I look forward to keeping updated on your accutane course!! Good luck ❤️❤️
I've done accutane as well. I have had really bad acne since 11 years old. In all my sensitive teenager years I was bullied because of my skin and I'm still dealing with depression and social anxiety right now. Accutane cleared up my skin really quickly! I hope it work for you as well. The comment section of this video is so touching it brought me into tears. Thanks every beautiful people for sharing your story.
RIGHT!!!! I drink more water then one should, tell my cystic acne because i am certain it is not aware-it has done nothing for me but make me run to the bathroom every 15 min
this video made me cry. my sister and i go through this type of harassment every day. she had a customer berate her over "not washing her face" and he laughed at her. I've had people refuse to let me serve them because they thought they could "catch" my skin. everyone takes one look at you and decides they have a right to tell you how to take care of yourself because obviously you can't be trying with acne. taylor, finding your youtube channel has been a blessing for me. most if not all of my makeup purchases come from seeing it in a video of yours. knowing there's someone out there that is making their way in the world despite so many of the struggles that i also go through (cystic acne, scarring, migraines) is inspiring. i really am routing for you during this time with accutane. you deserve those results 💕
I was on the maximum dose of accutane for the maximum allowable time and it completely cleared my skin. I tried everything, for years. Countless Derm appointments and prescriptions and nothing worked for my cystic acne except accutane. Within a few months my skin cleared totally and has stayed that way for 10 years now with only random pimples every now and then popping up. The only bad side effect I had personally was extremely dry cracked desert like lips and that was pretty painful but nothing else. I also 100% had a purge phase. My skin has never looked worse than in those fist couple months on the meds but then it was just gone. I hope you look back years from now on your experience and have a good outcome as well!
I have always respected the heck out of you for doing what you do. The fact that you have acne prone skin and STILL try a shit ton of different foundations knowing they could irritate your face makes you so brave. It's something that you don't ever see in the beauty community here on RUclips literally except you. You do it for your fans and don't ever think twice about it. You are strong and brave and all the people who have said mean stuff to you are horrible people!! I think you are an amazing person inside and out and I know there are thousands of people who think the same!! Keep on doing what you do girl! We love and support you!!❤️❤️
wow those comments really hurt my feelings because you are such a great person taylor ❤️ you look beautiful with and without make up , plus you're smart , have an amazing work ethic , funny , witty , cute style and a beautiful personality 💕 you're literally perf😍
You do what you need to to make yourself comfortable. At the end of the day, your body is your body. Speaking of, can we get a tutorial on your eye makeup? It looks stunning! I love the colors ❤❤❤
I am 55 and went on accutane 40 years ago when it first came out of trial phase. It cleared up but had to go back on short course again at 40. Love your confidence, honesty and generosity of spirit
I watched this video while washing my face at night, taking care of the skin I used to hate. I had acne since I was 12 and now that I'm 20 it is finally going away, after using antibiotics and topical treatment prescribed by a dermatologist. Now, when I look in the mirror, I can see myself, not the acne and imperfections of the skin. Now I love my skin, I think it's stunning, even tho I still have discoloration that is slowly fading, some scaring and some blackhead. Probably is not what is normally considered to be a beautiful skin, but now I feel so good inside it! Watching your video I really hoped that you can finally feel what I feel, and love and enjoy your skin free of acne and tons of make up to cover it up. Good luck! 🍀
Same! I got my cystic acne at 12, and now I'm halfway to 20. It's finally clearing up, and it took antibiotics and stuff. I'm just praying for clear skin, it's all i ask. I haven't had clear skin in 7 years! I hate cystic acne.
This is such an amazing video. I think this might be one of my favorites that you have done. I’m sorry for all the negativity you have received but I am also really blown away by your confidence despite the comments. Your confidence is so beautiful! Thanks for sharing this with us!!
i have tried so many things before finally committing to accutane. It was a last resort for me as well. i’ve been on it for three months and so far, everything’s been fine! i’ve just had really dry lips and semi dry skin. i hope it all clears up and i won’t have to worry about it anymore. my acne has always been one of my biggest insecurities and it actually had a huge role in the development of my anxiety and depression. watching your videos really makes me feel more confident and you’ve taught me so much!
I have acne too and over the past few months i just decided that my face is my face and its gonna do what it wants so i finally accept it.I hope that it goes away soon but when it looks like its going it comes right back.Thanks for making videos showing your skin and doing makeup it makes me so much more confident with my face🖤🖤🖤
Your best video. This will help so many people. You spoke so confidently and ellegantly. THIS is when RUclips is at its best. Best wishes on your journey! ❤️
One of the reasons I started watching your videos is because I have periods where my acne can look like yours and I was trying so hard to cover it up with makeup without doing a horrible job at it. As well as I am trying to become confident and comfortable in my skin. I get cystic acne on my chin and at times it was so bad that I would cry and not want to go anywhere where people would see it. Watching your channel has helped me become more comfortable in my skin and I thank you for that!!!!😊💕
I truly admire you. I think your fantastic! I’ve had acne sense I was 10 I’m 45 now. I can’t find any meds that work. Im so scared to where makeup. But I’m learning a lot from you. So thank You for making these videos and I’m glad I found your channel.
Pamela Masci I've suffered w/acne for 30 years./44 yo now. Tried everything. I was on accutane in my 20's. Did ok for a while but came back. Just last yr my GP doc put me on BACTRIM 80 mg , 1 pill at night, which is antibiotic. Take daily. It has completely "cured" my acne. There is a generic and it's cheap. Check it out.
Day 4 Accutane. I struggled with acne all through my teens and now through my twenties. I was running away from Accutane for the longest time. But now i think i was mentally ready to go on. Tried multiple other medication, oitments, products. You name it! I spent on it! Literally, my self-confidence took a huge toll on my mental health. Hated when random people and family commented and made it “obvious”. But over the years I decided to take things in my hand and keep my head high with whatever flaws i have. I am proud of who i am and totally confident with my skin. I honestly watched all you videos before going on Accutane and skin doing so to help me through this journey. ❤️
So proud of you. Can’t wait to see the updates and how your skin changes. I’ve been on accutane for the second time now for 4 months and I’ve already noticed a huge change in my skin. Excited to see how it works for you ❤️
This video certainly clarifies everything you've already tried - God love ya. Another part of me thinks it's sad that you had to explain your reasoning behind your decision to use Accutane. It's your body, not mine or anyone else's. I hope your results are stunningly successful and exactly what you're hoping for. You may be less than half my age but I certainly look up to you. Anyone would be truly blessed to have you as a mentor. ❤️❤️❤️🖤❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much for this I have been suffering for so long with acne since I hit puberty and at 21 Ive just broke out all over my face and body. Ive been locking myself inside but you have given me a new confidence where Ive started taking a big interest in make-up again, going out and not caring what people think anymore. Ive realised you can still be beautiful with acne, Im grateful for your channel you deserve more notice than these other big youtubers who never show their real skin. THANK YOU!
Good luck with accutane Tayla! im on accutane currently for the second time and I cant say enough good things about it, I hope you get the results you want ❤️xxx
I have acne now, and honestly I never thought I would get it and it has shattered my confidence. You are so strong to do a video and push through the hate because it’s so hard when nothing works and you have everyone judging you. Good luck with accutane! xo
I've been an OG subscriber here and I've not only watched your channel grow but also you as an individual. I absolutely love you!! You're the very reason I started my own channel because you give me so much inspiration. You're one of the few big RUclipsrs that actually keeps it real with your subscribers. And I can't thank you enough for that. I'm so excited for you to start this next chapter of your life. But either way I think you're beautiful!!! Love you chick!💋💋
Foundation Fairy Taylor is def the reason I started my channel too! She’s so inspirational &I’ve slowly grown to love the skin I’m in (even though I’m on accutane too lol).
People without acne would never understand how hard it is to get rid of acne
True.
Preach it
sooo true it hurts
Just another Potato So true.
Exactly!!!
Tbh I think people who have persistent forms of acne take better care of their skin than people who don't since we've all been trying to get rid of of it for so long
Alex Meyer it’s so true. I used to wash my face 3 times a day and exfoliate and I had adult onset acne. I had to go on birth control and I think aging just helped
This is so true. I am 61 and had acne until menopause. I took very good care of my skin always and I will say this, the acne is gone now and I have smooth skin... No wrinkles because I always kept my skin covered. I just had to wait until I was old lol.
I wish drinking water was a cure for all my problems
"Clean your fucking face. Love your personality tho." Who the fuck comments something like that what the Hell.
comments like that remind me why it's illegal to hit someone with a car. PLUS I don't look good in orange jumpsuits....people are awful, my god...
How about the one that said “do you have herpes”. What a stupid comment
Divaliciousbeauty123 yeah that was one ignorant person
I saw that comment and my reaction was the same as yours. Who the fuck are they to be saying ANYTHING about anyone? It's like when you're a chubby person and people yell insults, they don't know that persons story but they still feel like they need to put you down. Sometimes people suck at being decent human beings.
I just clicked on the video. I read the comments on your thumbnail and it disgusts me how people who don't suffer from acne don't fucking understand. I remember I couldn't walk out the house without make up, I was in a dark place. It does take time. But now I'm like for what? Pimples don't define me.
Makeuphuney I felt sick to my stomach
Best of luck to you with your accutane journey. You are bright, funny and articulate, not to mention very beautiful. Keep us posted and be well!
I did the same thing and my mouth dropped. Its horrible how disgusting people are.
Makeuphuney Yeah, people can be so mean.
Not to mention walking around with the pain sitting on your face weighs on you a lot
This is exactly why I follow you. I struggle with adult acne and the insecurities that come with it. No one really gets it or the things that come with severe acne. It's so weird to say but representation - besides color or ethnicity - acne representation is important to me because if you can be confident in your skin, so can I. It's as if your acne defines your credibility. I can trust and relate to your recommendations. It's like your blessing in disguise! I love you girl
yes, I agree, this is why I can trust her reviews because she understands our needs :)
Ironically enough, your acne is the reason why I clicked on your video in the first place. It makes you different and relatable.
Same. Most people that do videos review things with barely any coverage. I subscribed for the high coverage demos. Had acne since I was a teenager.
DrChin Strap me too. I was Like oh shit. A foundation video where she actually has stuff to cover. My girl! It cracks me up when someone with practically flawless skin says something is full coverage. Like I'm going to take advice from you. Lol.
DrChin Strap me too
I paused and read the comments at the beginning... I wish I hadn’t. They made me cry. You are so gorgeous and strong. I’m glad you are able to rise above the nonsense people say. Can’t wait to see how this journey works out for you. ❤️
Puffins Wife I did too and one observation I made is that a majority of the comments were made by men.....
I didn’t read much yet but I guess I’ll stop here. :/
Noelle B. No she meant the comments that Taylor posted in the video :) you’re good to read the comments here!
I did the exact same thing just now. Goddamn people are so evil.
Mariannie Zayas that’s so sad
Some things that i learned while on accutane:
1. If you really feel obligated to exfoliate, use a towel and some warm water to very gently exfoliate peely skin.
2. Aquaphor 24/7. Drink lots of water
3. Cereve for sensitive skin works well while on accutane. Or olay gentle clean. It never irritated me.
4. Always practice self-care. My depression/anxiety got much worse on the medication. Always prioritize your mental health/learn to treat yourself
Best of luck to you! Im excited to see your accutane journey!
Leslie Hernandez #4 forever, with or without accutane. Good reminder!
Leslie Hernandez e
My dermatologists once mentioned Accutane but I already have a lot of problems with depression/anxiety so I'm lowkey afraid of it 🙈
Do you have any pictures of the olay gentle cleanse! ?
Vanessa Guevara idk how to attach an image here but its a white tube with blue lettering! Google olay gentle clean :)
I’m real damn happy you didn’t censor the names on those comments in the beginning of the video. May they feel appropriately shamed. Hoping this new venture works out well for you. Glad you were able to move beyond be reaction you had after the first pill.
Angie P I hate when youtubers block the names on these types of rude comments its like , you DESERVE to be ashamed / embarrased !
While watching this video I asked my 5 year old daughter, "Do you think the girl in the video is beautiful?" She said "uh huh...but do you know she has pimples?" I said "I do know that but she is still beautiful" and my daughter looked at the screen and said "yes she's beautiful mom" even tho I'm not a fan of most people, I love that my daughter loves people so much and sees beauty in everyone
Serena Post You’re raising a child as a good human being. Thank you.
Love this. 🖤
Thank you ladies! Our world today is filled with so much cruelty and cold hearted people...i try to teach both my kids about respect and hurting other people's feelings...my daughter is in young 5s, she has a little boy in her class who is extremely overweight but so precious and so sweet...i tried to explain to her about how some people are mean to others and make them feel sad if they are big and that I bet it would make him feel happy if she tried to be his friend (especially with my daughter being a strong personality and already being "popular" at school and daycare)...well, a few weeks into school, that boys grandmother thanked my daughter for being his friend...its scary raising kids and I truly hope she stays this strong but loving girl even as she gets older
Serena Post You sound like such an amazing Mom! Bless x
My 3 year old son started blushing when I showed him this video... he thinks taylor is totally cute 😍❤ he doesn't even see something 'weird' or different... because we never call it out... if it's normal to us it's normal to him...
I am finishing up my 5th month of Accutane and it has absolutely changed my life in every way possible. I never knew how incredible it would be to have clear skin, as I have had terrible acne for the past 6 years. I applaud you for being so transparent in your journey. Just remember that you don't need to explain your reasoning for going on Accutane. This is a decision for you and you only. Good luck!
d Don't buy into the stuff you see on the internet. It's a very small chance that you'll have a severe reaction, same with every medication. Any doctor or pharmacist will tell you the same. The internet makes everything seem a lot worse than it is.
Honestly my only side effects have been chapped lips, watery eyes, and some back pain. Such a small price to pay for finally having clear skin!
The corners of my mouth were kinda flaky but I used loads of Aquaphor to combat it. My skin was fine as long as I used a daily moisturizer! For me, the side effects were way worth not having acne anymore!
Modernxlove which brand of Accutane were you on?
Which brand did you take?
Wow. Those comments you popped up real quick were just so disturbingly rude. Humanity has just gone so far downhill. You are beautiful! And it makes me so sad that people would bombard you with comments like that. Gosh. Cheers to you for keeping your head up and remaining such a giving and genuine person. You deserve all the success in the world, Taylor.
People have no idea what acne does to a person's confidence. I had cystic acne for 17 years before I finally was able to find the right medication for it. The older I got, the worse it got. The first thing I would do in the morning would be to look at new breakouts. I didn't even want to leave my house when my skin was having a bad day.
I have watched you for a long time Taylor, and I can't wait to take this journey with you. Thank you so much for sharing it with us. We 🖤 you!!!
I'm a 23 year old dude watching your video. I have gone on isotretinoin about a year and a half ago. I was quite hesitant about it, because of all the "horrible side effects" people talk about, but thankfully my experience with the medicine was fairly mild. I did get really dry lips and some random nosebleeds, but nothing major. Hope your experience is just like that if not better. Certainly you already know this, but you're a charming and beautiful human being. The process is lengthy, but with time your skin will improve. Good luck (:
Accutane was a lifesaver for my skin.
Just some tips:
-Aquaphor will be your best friend during the course. Use it as facial and body moisturizer, lip balm, etc.
-Drink lots of water! You'll save your skin.
-Don't be discouraged by the initial breakout. It will start to clear up by the 2nd to 3rd month.
-Tarte's Rainforest of the Sea foundation was what I used during my course. It helped a lot with the dryness and I was able to layer it without any problems.
-If you have any questions the Accutane Subreddit will help you immensely.
I hope the course goes well!
guys like the comment above this and make it the top comment, I want Taylor to see it!!
ALSO, do NOT pick/pop ANYTHING. Your skin becomes very thin and fragile and it will scab/look worse and possibly scar.
Blistex Medex lip balm has been a holy grail for me on accutane! Your hands can get reallyyyy dry so make some to use some heavy duty eczema cream. Also, the Lush “Bunny Moon” mask and First Aid Beauty 5-in-1 Bouncy face mask have been incredibly helpful in keeping my face moisturized.
I can't say how accurate this comment is! People use to say the same thing to me, stop wearing makeup, let your skin breathe, drink water, wash your face...ughhhh. Do you really think I didn't try these things?! Anyway Rainforest of the sea is exactly what I used while on accutane, along with Aquaphor!!!! Accutane saved my skin, just finished it in July. & I still haven't gotten any pimples. I can't wait to see your results!!!!
Honestly I'm always so distracted by your beautiful eyes that I never really notice your acne. I wish you the best on your accutane journey!
Hey girl! Get a humidifier for your room, it will help with dryness and will help prevent accutane nose bleeds!
Mylena's Beauty Room holy shit. I don't have acne, never been on accutane or anything, but have extremely dry skin..not sure why I never thought to get a freaking humidifier. My daughter has severe eczema and I always notice when she visits her dad in Florida her skin clears up and I've always said I wish I lived somewhere humid because of that. Lol why oh why did I never think of a humidifier?! Thank you! :)
Accutane is a life saver!!I don’t even worry about going out without makeup anymore!! I would have never done that before accutane!! Also, having had acne myself, I don’t judge people with acne because I’ve been there myself 😀Good luck Taylor, you are beautiful with or without acne!
I'm not even sure where to start. I've been watching you for so long, you have actually changed my life. I am a fellow makeup loving adult with extensive adult cystic acne. I'm 26 years old now and have had acne since I was 12. I have tried EVERYTHING from prescription creams, expensive products, drugstore products, diet changes, hormone testing, naturopath testing- you name it. I've exhausted my bank account and my damn soul trying to find something that helps. Something about seeing you up there with the top makeup gurus doing your own damn thing being exactly who you are has inspired me beyond words. You've shown me acne doesn't mean I can't wear makeup just the same as the clear skin girls. You've shown me acne doesn't mean I'm not beautiful. You've changed my attitude from "my acne is ruining my life" to "it's just acne and it doesn't define me" I needed this today, I really did
emily young Hey! Look up on Amazon ESTROBLOCK triple strength! Read reviews! Try it. Saved my skin! Xx
Oh well ,this make me cry cause I have the same problem
I waited to comment on this because I wanted you to see it without it getting flooded in the rest of the comments.
I cannot believe people have the audacity to say such hurtful things. The human race can be one of the most disgusting, insensitive and the meanest species on the face of the earth.
Thankfully there are empathetic, sympathetic and loving people that exist and shine through all the bull shit the negative people have to say.
You honestly are an inspiration. I've always been into makeup all my life but never "needed" it. After having my son my skin took a turn for the worst. I found myself watching your videos at 3am nursing my son after crying about how my face was covered in big bulbous painful and red acne.
You so helped me build up my confidence again.
You are BEAUTIFUL. with or without makeup. Your heart and soul can be felt through each of your videos.
I am sorry that people have had such horrendous things to say to you. It's mind blowing and makes me feel ashamed to be a part of the human race. But then I remember there are people out there like you and that's a breath of fresh air.
Thank you Taylor, for putting yourself out there. For showing us the parts of you that you may not like (acne). For stay true to who you are and always showing your appreciation.
You are a one of a kind Taylor. As a fan of yours, I absolutely love who you are and I'm thankful I stumbled across you during the times I needed you most. ❤️
you're gorgeous, no matter how much acne you have
That also my first thought every time i watch her videos
Those comments posted at the beginning on the video hurt my heart. I'd like to THANK YOU for the videos and your positive outlook on everything....positive is contagious....thank you for helping those of us with some.of the same issues!
+Megan Bailey thanks Megan! 🖤
Accutane is tough but it will change your life. I am SO happy I did it a couple years ago. Clear skin still going strong!
Christine S Hi! Just wondering how your skin is doing after accutane?
Chelsea Rios please update us! I’m on week 7 of Accutane and want to know about afterward :)
It boggles my mind when people come up so someone with, for example, severe acne, anxiety or insomnia, and gives them the MOST OBVIOUS piece of advice ever - I'm like, do you think I haven't tried it?! I understand that they are trying to be helpful most of the time, but how can they not realize that it's condescending. Like, if I had a friend who struggled with their weight, I wouldn't go up to them and be like "have you tried excercising and smaller portion sizes?" Never. Like I said, I remind myself that their comments are meant to be helpful. But saying that to someone with a severe case of something is like assuming that they don't know anything about their own condition. Sigh. 😩
Sandra Norum yes Ive had ppl tell my bro who is insomniac "are you sure your not just drinking too much caffine or are you sure your just not tired"
He must be so tired of those comments by now... :/
Sandra Norum agree doll
Sandra Norum no, he isn't tired. Didn't you read?
👀👀 ... I'm sorry that was horrible. 😂
It like when you feeling depressed and someone is telling you “don’t be sad!” Well thanks captain obvious😑
I love you so much tayla, you're my inspiration. I had clear skin until I was 18 and then all of a sudden I got cystic acne, and had it so bad for 2 years I lost all my confidence and rarely left the house. I was so depressed and put down listening to people constantly telling me I need to do this, etc you know the drill. Then one day I found your channel and my life changed gave me back my confidence and helped me to love my skin. I have clear skin now but no matter what happens with my skin ill always be comfortable in it thanks to you 💙💙 I hope Accutane works for you. You're so beautiful inside and out acne or not 💙
wander lust what did you use for the cyst acne?
brianna horen I tried so many things like antibiotics, face washes, spot treatments, homemade treatments, literally everything I could find . What worked in the end was cutting out all dairy and a cream from the doctor called duac, I used it for about 3 months, it cleared it up so much and then started using 5% benzoyl peroxide every night. I only use garnier miscellar water to remove my makeup/cleanse my face then apply the bp, its been clear for a few months now I get the odd white head but haven't gotten any cysts, mine were so painfull I had to sleep on my back every night cause lying on the pillow would make me cry in pain 😧 hope this helps you xx
I also try not to eat fried foods anymore or peanuts because I know they give me spots x
wander lust I cut daisy and I've seen a huge difference! Do you have acne scars? I have a lot after more than 10 years with them 😪
Makeuphuney yes I have got some scars on my cheeks, like I have a lot of ice pick scars I think they're called, basically my pores are stretched and mishappen.. do you know what helps scars ? X
This is the first video of yours I have seen. I always see your thumbnails and I always thought you were gorgeous. I respect you so much for being a beauty RUclipsr, especially with all the jerks out there who love to assume things. I know how that feels.
Moonlit and Polished she definitely is a one of a kind ❤
Omg those comments on the thumb nail......people are cruel, but misery loves company so they need to cast it onto someone....i think you are beautiful any way you are, they don't know the struggle obviously!! Thank you for being an inspiration and so strong, they should just watch someone else!!
I’m on Accutane right now and the results have been great. I have some tips for you !
- bite beauty lip masks are amazing for chapped lips, stock up on really good lip balms
- drink tons and tons of water. I found I’m very dehydrated, I get creases in my face now that look like wrinkles but go away once a drink lots of water.
- Cetaphyl cleanser and moisturizer are a MUST. Anything else burns my skin.
- eye drops for dry eyes
- your acne will get worse before it gets better. Super dry flakey and uncomfortable . I seen major results after 2 months
I'm on my second round of accutane and can't use Cetaphil cleanser (it breaks me out), but the first aid beauty cleanser has done wonders for my sensitive skin and it is similar!
CeraVe cleansers and moisturizers are also good for some people
PandaBum Yes! I use the CeraVe cleanser alongside my FAB one and the moisturizing cream (the tub kind) and while I do have some dry areas, my skin isn’t super flaky or peeling. They’ve been my go-to since my first accutane round
I'm on Accutane too and I just want to add that don't worry if you don't see any improvement for a while. Up until the 4 month point I still had a lot of acne but then they went away.
A thick layer of Cetaphil Cream is a must!! Even on the lips (I know it feels weird to some people, but it helps a lot). I actually found the Cetaphil Cleanser too drying, so instead the Neutrogena Ultra Gentle cleanser in the cream formula has been one of my HG products even after Accutane because I have eczema, Seb Derm, and just overall very sensitive skin that produces a lot of oils but still feels tight and dry if I don't moisturize enough.
I'm so glad I found your channel. I'm 32 and I have had acne since I was 10! Pasty white/red splotchy skin, red head, blonde eyebrows and eyelashes...yeah make-up is not fun for me! For medical reasons I could never go on Accutane. Even though I am married, and now have a 6 month old baby girl, my skin is still a HUGE insecurity. It is depressing and still reduces me to tears at times. I'm encouraged by how you have embraced the skin you were given, and you haven't let it stop you from being a huge success and obviously doing what you love! I need to learn to love and embrace my skin, I don't want my daughter to learn to be insecure because of my poor example.
if u cant go on accutane, try spironolactone
In the 90's there was a Neutrogena commercial where Mandy Moore did the typical slash of water across her already flawless face. It was my undoing. To the bathroom I ran with an abrasive kitchen sponge and tried to "scrub off" the acne. Living with acne sucks.

Girl. Don’t let ANYONE impact your decision to go on Accutane. You’ve paid your dues. You’ve tried everything under the sun. I went on Accutane when I was 17 after being in the same boat as you and it changed my life. Accutane was rough, but I do not regret it. It completely changed my skin and I’m now 25.
Oh and get Aquaphor. It will totally save your lips while you’re on Accutane. Literally no other product worked for my dry lips.
Kelsey Anna can you go on it more then once?
IkerBSparkle I’m not sure! Definitely check with your doctor on that.
Kelsey Anna I don't have cystic acne, but I won't stop breaking out. I've been breaking out since I was 13 and now 24. Also does accutane help with acne scars?
Makeuphuney ugh I’m so sorry girl. I feel your pain. Accutane doesn’t help with existing acne scars. Definitely ask your dermatologist what she thinks is best!
I love the first portion of the video before I went on Accutane I suffered from depression related to acne. People with clear skin do not understand what it’s like to feel so ashamed or embarrassed to not look people in the eyes. I was so self conscious do what works for you!
It should be a law that if someone is going to leave a rude nasty comment on a video, they should have to use their real name and photo. Almost all of those nasty comments were fake names and no photos...just lame ass miserable people hiding behind a keyboard. I’m sorry you have had to deal with that. You don’t deserve it. You seem very sweet and I love your videos. I’m over 40 with decent skin so I’m probably not your typical viewer but I just enjoy your videos. You’re funny and honest and I appreciate that. I wish you the best of luck on your journey and hope you find the results that make you happy! Thank you for showing us how to embrace our true selves. You are beautiful!
Tamara Dungan I'm thirty-eight and watch her religiously 😊
Tamara Dungan you just mentioned all the things that go thru my mind! I'm 37and have fortunately always had decent skin, so I'm also probably not one of her typical viewers. I absolutely can not stand when people who have no photo leave the most disgusting comments about someone else's appearance....and just as bad is people who leave a nasty comment but have horrible spelling and grammar (and I'm not referring to typos lol).
Ellen Marie O Isn’t the most cowardly thing? The nasty comments...not the spelling and grammar ;-). Although that bugs me too :-)
Tamara Dungan I totally agree! The mean comments are usually always from somebody with no picture! I'm 35 years old and I just can't imagine being a young girl going thru all the craziness of being a teen and having some worthless piece of shit tell me that I'm ugly or that I need to wash my face or something! I'm so glad that we didn't have social media in our time growing up! I would have wanted to die if people sent me mean comments, I seriously would not have been able to handle it, so I give these kids a lot of credit these days
Tamara Dungan Well said! I'm in my mid forties and just love Taylor's channel. She's a true professional in the beauty guru world.
Girl. Good for you for not censoring the users making those comments. If you have the gall to insult someone, be prepared to have your identity tied to that mean comment. Ugh I don't understand insulting strangers who aren't hurting anyone or doing anything wrong. UGH.
I think people often times forget that genetics can be a HUGE factor in acne. My sister eats a very strict, very healthy diet and drinks water religiously but still suffers from horrible cystic acne like both of my parents did when they were younger. Eating healthy and drinking water doesn’t cure everything and I wish people would stop thinking it does 🙄
Exactly
Those comments are simply ignorance. I lost count of how many times I was told not to wear so much face makeup yet it’s funny because I have acne on my chest and back and I don’t wear makeup there. People won’t understand unless they experience skin issues themselves.
Elizabeth Ventura No, it's just the assholes that voice their shit opinions all the time, but there are alot of people who have never had acne that understands it's not makeup or being dirty, like myself. But maybe that's just because I studied beauty therapy.
I'm approaching my mid 30's and still deal with acne. I too gett them on my chest all over my back and neck. I can not tell you how many times I've received "advice" or comments from people. I've learned to just brush it off and keep it moving.
Okay honestly I'm really happy for you???!!! 💕
Let me tell you a personal story, I used to have really bad cystic acne, it started when I was in middle school, around 11 years old and started with some pimples here and there and got really bad over the years and really painful, I suffered bullying and had really bad self esteem which caused me lots of depression and bad thoughts about life.
In my case my family never supported me about going with a dermatologist because of money issues, and I always tried to fix things with drugstore products, natural remedies, hair away from the face, changing pillowcases every week and a MILLION of more things that never got rid of my acne entirely.
Last year, now an university student, I encouraged myself, got a part time job and paid for my treatment with a dermatologist which led me to the gynecologist and several studies. I went on accutane for 6 months + birth control (which I still use) + several face products, and let me tell you that it's one of the best decisions I had ever taken.
Now I'm a much more confident with a bare face and my esteem has gotten better, it might be true that I have lots of ice pick marks in my face, plus scaring and red marks but I don't get those painful cysts anymore and it makes me really happy.
So from a person who dealt with acne for 12 years, let me tell you that accutane is a great option and I hope it works amazing for you as it went for me! 😊
The only RUclipsr to tell me acne is normal, okay to have, and teaches me to not let it affect my life bc it’s uncontrollable. I’ve been struggling with cystic acne through out all of high school, with it being the worst rn as a senior. Seeing all my classmates growing out of their acne with effortlessly clear skin, or never having had acne at all, makes me feel inferior and frustrated at times. But watching your videos has helped me so much both with makeup and self esteem. I’m now at a place where I can feel completely normal with out makeup on my face even when I have blaring acne and scaring all over my face. Honestly couldn’t have been here with out your online support. Thank god for the community you’ve created.
You are Awesome.
As a fellow acne sufferer I can see the pain in your eyes. All events occasions and memories are marked by how bad or good my skin was for me. But I dont see defeat and that gives me hope.
Erin C i thought I saw pain too
I feel you! My mood definitely depends on my current skin situation, a lot
I feel you i go through this every other day 😭😭😭
And unless you've had acne, NO ONE can understand how badly it feels.
I’m so glad #1 you were confident enough to put yourself out there like that. You have no idea how much you have inspired others! My daughter had really bad cystic acne. We tried multiple treatments for 2 years before Accutane. Accutane for 9 months finally cleared her up, but it was tough. She wouldn’t leave the house without a full face of makeup prior. Her face clearing up gave her so much more confidence. Thank you for rising above all the hate and persevering! 💜
I second every positive comment 😊. As someone who has cystic acne, it means a lot to have someone talk about their journey and I'm glad we all get to come along on yours.
I have very bad blackheads & hormonal cystic acne..I hear comments all the time too. But watching your videos makes me feel comfortable with it. You’re awesome. I love you ❤️
As someone who has had acne for a decade i really appreciate this video. I've struggled for so long and have been insecure and you spreading awareness really matters
I've been having such a rough patch of time lately. Today was especially rough, so I kept refreshing my page until your video popped up because it literally was the only thing I've been looking forward to all day. I love your channel and content. Thank you for quality videos and reviews. Your voice is also incredibly soothing and comforting.
Melissa hola hope your day/night gets better- you are beautiful! Depending what's up sometimes I feel silly complimenting looks when other things may be more important- but you really are gorgeous and things will always get better:)
Jennifer Moras oh my gosh, thank you so much! Your comment has brightened my night for sure! You're beautiful as well, inside and out!
Melissa hola I hope you start to feel better soon. ❤😘
Nick Colosimo thank you so much! You all are so kind! I am so honored and appreciative for your positive thoughts.
Sorry your having a rough time,sweetie. Hope it gets better😘
Acne is one heck of a mental and emotional distress and going on accutane is the only thing that helped me. So glad to hear that you’ve taken this step. Was awaiting this video ❤️
I struggled with acne for 10 years since 5th grade a severe cystic acne during my early 20s. I was on accutane and it was the greatest thing I ever did for my skin. Accutane IS a serious and I did suffer crazy effed up side effects (extremely dry butthole, severe constipation, and vivid, gross, messed up nightmares) but it was for 6 months only. Now I can do stuff like leave the house without foundation on, not worry about acne that literally pulsates and forms clusters of 4-5 "friends" looking like inch big warts on my face, be careless and sleep in makeup if I'm too tired, etc. I haven't gotten cystic acne ever since and it's been 4 years! You're gonna have great results but just beware of gross/crazy side effects. Love you Tayla!
so happy for you. my story is identical to yours. i took my last accutane pill today after being on it for 11.5 months! hopefully this is done and over with!
I understand you willing to get rid of acne, I just want you to know that when I look at you I see much more than acne, I see a gorgeous woman that happens to have acne, but yeah, it's a feeling from within and I hope you get good results with the medication. I watch you bc I like your personality and your video style, everything is well explained with a good humor and dedication, acne or scars are not a major point for me. Hugs from Brazil :)
Carolina Trigueiro that’s such a beautiful comment! Well said.
You are literally one of the most beautiful people here on youtube. When i suffered from acne, and i still do, your videos were there to cheer me up. You were so real, and still so beautiful. You inspire me so much.
I really like this camera angle/placement!! I do see a difference!! I love you, cannot wait to see the results, wishing you nothing but the best!!
Alexia Zamora ditto!!!!
I was on accutane as a teenager bc i was so desperate, now my skin is quite well, just still textured. I wish your channel existed back then. I was so insecure and unconfident, you are amazing, girl ❤ love from germany. hope your accutane journey is as comfortable as possible
People are just ignorant and rude. You are stunning dear. Accutane helped me in my mind twenties. It was the only thing that actually worked! Good luck and can't wait to see your results!!
Literally went to dermatologist today and was told my only option left is accutane and I’m terrified. Watching all of the videos in this playlist, thank you for making these. I cried almost all day after my appointment.
Accutane was the best thing I've ever done for my skin. I would seriously do it over again if I had to. I suffered from acne for about 3.5 years and then couldn't take it anymore. My skin never got worse before it got better, my skin cleared within 3 weeks of being on it. The only major side effect I had from it was dry skin/lips. Just thought I would add that since people love to share the most scariest stories about accutane. It changed my life, and I hope it works for you as well too!
I wish mine didn’t get worse before it got better😭 my skin is worse than before I started accutane (I’ve only been on it for a month). I really hope I get the same result as you🤞🏼
Mikilea everyone is different! I’m sure your end result will still be great. I know it sucks while you’re on it and your skin is a dry flaky mess but it’ll be so worth it. Good luck!
Same! I would do it over again 100 times. Just finished my 6 months in august. It has changed my entire life. The side effects were minimal. Just chapped lips but nothing unbearable! It’s soooo worth it!
Adelaide B I would do it all over again too.👍
Mikilea Dont worry girl, is going to get better soon. Trust me.
You are a very mature and accomplished woman for your age Taylor. xx
I'm 37yrs old and currently going through this acne and cystic acne (almost no space in my face) and there is absolutely nothing no one as in no one can do about it. Heck it makes me cry all the time and sometimes I don't even want to go to work but I know once I am done with my treatment (when, I don't know) my moon face and acne face will go away and will eventually go back to normal. I have always been acne prone because of my sensitive skin but since I started my treatment almost 4 months ago now, it went berserk. Oh well I rather be alive and have moon face, swelling, loosing my hair and my acne everywhere than be normal but be six feet under. That's what I tell myself anyway 😊. I look forward for your journey videos. xx Good Luck Taylor
Make-Up Addiction I wish you the best of luck in your journey. Praying for you.
Make-Up Addiction I wish you all the luck and hope you are surrounded by good people to help you through your journey 💕
Bless your heart sweetie. Hang in there. With your spirit and outlook I have a feeling it's gonna work out for you in the end. You deserve for it to. Be patient and your time will come💜
I'm saying a prayer for you 💞 I know what it's like when something is taken from you, you just hope for the best and helpless, can't do nothing about it that has any effect. I've heard awesome things about sulfur soap, probably old news for you though. I'll pray you'll get peace of mind and an effective way to get rid of it, don't ever lose hope! I don't know if you know this, so I'm just going to say this even though I understand you probably aren't in need of people giving you advice, but I'm certain that super sensitivity to gluten causes adult acne, it might not have any other signs or symptoms. Sorry. I'm going now, stay tough
OMG, those comments...what the hell is wrong with people? You are so strong to have been dealing with that. Incredibly inspiring. ♥
You are a smart , humble and generous woman beautiful inside and out Goodluck Taylor !! Wish you all the best! 👍🏽😙
pimple is not disgusting but the society is
I really do admire you for having confidence with acne. I'm struggling with my acne and confidence right now, and watching your videos help me a lot. I have a dermatologist appointment tomorrow, and I hope Accutane will be an option for me! I'm soooo happy for you and wish you the best with your Accutane journey. ☺️
Got served this almost 4 years after you posted this and happy to report from the future that your skin looks great!
Please do monthly updates! A lot of your viewers suffer from acne, and I think it would be helpful for everyone to see the side effects each month :D Good luck!!
I think it's pretty terrible that you have to add a "disclaimer" about Accutane. For fucks' sake, you're a grown ass woman, you don't owe anyone an explanation for your choices about your medical care and treatment. Even if this was your first choice treatment (which it's never anyone's, and no dermatologist would allow that), it's no one else's business. I think it's unbelievable that people feel so entitled these days that they think they can say such hurtful shit to a person and then also criticize the person when they take charge of the situation. Good for you for being you, Taylor, and best of luck on your Accutane journey! May all those nasty side effects keep their distance!
I think she only added the disclaimer for possible legal reasons. As Accutane is a medication, she can't recommend it in case someone takes her recommendation and then gets bad side effects or damage from it and then sues her or takes legal action. Same with the videos where people have to say "just because I don't like a product doesn't mean it won't work for you..." - it is sometimes to avoid possible legal action later. But I totally agree with you - so glad Taylor is taking this step!!!
I agree, but since it is a medication that requires a prescription, it's not like anyone can just go grab it on a whim because she used it, recommended it, condoned it, etc. If someone saw this video and assumed that this medication would be a cure-all with no possibility of negative side effects, etc., well, they're an idiot for starters and they probably deserve what they get. But if they went to their dermatologist to demand it, and their dermatologist gave in to their demands without following the appropriate protocols, that's actually on the dermatologist for not sticking to the standard of care, it's not the fault of a random RUclipsr. Even in our litigious society, you'd be hard-pressed to find a judge who would actually let a suit like that go through. And the reason RUclipsrs give the other disclaimer about products is because 1. they don't want followers giving them grief about "how DARE you NOT like that product!" blahblah (because, god forbid, everyone has a different opinion) and 2. they don't want to be sued or blacklisted by brands for giving a negative review and "slandering" them, it's not because of a potential lawsuit from a follower who had a bad skin reaction to a recommended product.
My son did 2 rounds of accutane and it worked , he was 16 when he started and he was so happy with the results. I left the decision to him and supported him in what ever he decided. He was fortunate-that he had no bad side effects .
Thank you for speaking out about this as you said it effects everyone differently. Have a fabulous day .
Love that camera angle! Felt like we were sitting having coffee🤗☕️
Sweet thanks! ☕️👍🏻
I'm rooting for you so hard, you're going to get the clear skin you deserve dear! ♥♥♥
MsPandaBee yup 😘😍
I struggled with acne in the past and I also struggled with self confidence and depression. I tried a ton of acne products too and eventually it finally cleared. I still have some breakouts, but overall, my skin has finally regulated itself. I think you're beautiful and this video was extremely informational.
I would never tell someone how to take care of their face. That’s rude. Especially, if you didn’t ask for advise.
I have pretty good skin, but that’s bc I have good genes. GOOD LUCK GIRL SENDING POSITIVE VIBES
Good luck to you! I hope all goes well. I feel that your acne journey will be helping many others. I’m so glad that there is someone out there willing to show the reality of severe and intense acne. So much shame and ridicule have been thrown at those who are not considered “normal”, which is a joke, because like, WHO is normal? I am rooting for you to do very well and hope you find the cause and the cure for your acne. You are sure to help out many others with this issue. I’ve noticed that humans tend to be an imitative species, and having a confident woman to model, is exceptionally helpful. You Go Taylor!!!
🖤🖤🖤
First of all, you are so breath takingly gorgeous, holy crap. Secondly, accutane completely changed my life. I suffered from severe acne all my life...I wouldn't even talk to anyone, let alone look them in the eye because of my skin. I tried everything under the sun and nothing worked. Finally I was put on accutane and...it saved my skin. I've been off it for about 5 years now and my skin is still so clear...It truly was a life saver for me. Best of luck on your accutane journey!!
Hi! Good luck with your treatment. I'm from Portugal and is the third time I do accutane (in Portugal we didn't call that way, but after I google it, is the same), my skin was must worst than your, not only in my face but in my arms and chest to. I had done the 20mg treatment, is the strongest in Portugal, and the side effect is not very good, I bleed a lot of my nose, always with many wounds. But it's worth, believe. Rigth now my skin is clear of any acne, and I feel must more confidence.
Inês Porfírio despite of the side effects, I’m glad it worked for you! Hope you continue having clear skin :)
Uma conterrânea, fã da thataylaa
É verdade :D
Boa sorte Inês.
Inês Porfírio that’s great!
I'm sorry that you have to endure these horrible comments. You are a beautiful person...not just on the outside. You truly have helped people and I hope you know that. I appreciate you sharing your story. XX
I JUST finished 4 months of Accutane and let me tell you, it works. Some rare cases it doesn’t work for people but if done right, you will be cured. Stock up on chapstick and the Bite Beauty agave lip mask and drinks loads of water. You’ll get through it! I also made an Instagram account just for my treatment of accutane and I loved it. The accutane community on instagram is bomb. Everyone helps each other and it’s awesome to see how much your skin improves over the months. I look forward to keeping updated on your accutane course!! Good luck ❤️❤️
I've done accutane as well. I have had really bad acne since 11 years old. In all my sensitive teenager years I was bullied because of my skin and I'm still dealing with depression and social anxiety right now. Accutane cleared up my skin really quickly! I hope it work for you as well. The comment section of this video is so touching it brought me into tears. Thanks every beautiful people for sharing your story.
心 Shu 11 years old is so young to go through that 😥 I'm sorry you were bullied. Best wishes to you!
Nicole Cook people like you make me feel so much better. Thank you for being so empathic. ♥️♥️
if only drinking water could cure all acne...... people are so uneducated sometimes holy
RIGHT!!!! I drink more water then one should, tell my cystic acne because i am certain it is not aware-it has done nothing for me but make me run to the bathroom every 15 min
drinking water is so important tho most people don't drink nearly enough..
I would have saved thousands of dollars
Ayah Doumani I have dark circle under my eyes and everyone tells me to drink water and I only drink water!!
IkerBSparkle omg people 🙄
this video made me cry. my sister and i go through this type of harassment every day. she had a customer berate her over "not washing her face" and he laughed at her. I've had people refuse to let me serve them because they thought they could "catch" my skin. everyone takes one look at you and decides they have a right to tell you how to take care of yourself because obviously you can't be trying with acne. taylor, finding your youtube channel has been a blessing for me. most if not all of my makeup purchases come from seeing it in a video of yours. knowing there's someone out there that is making their way in the world despite so many of the struggles that i also go through (cystic acne, scarring, migraines) is inspiring. i really am routing for you during this time with accutane. you deserve those results 💕
I was on the maximum dose of accutane for the maximum allowable time and it completely cleared my skin. I tried everything, for years. Countless Derm appointments and prescriptions and nothing worked for my cystic acne except accutane. Within a few months my skin cleared totally and has stayed that way for 10 years now with only random pimples every now and then popping up. The only bad side effect I had personally was extremely dry cracked desert like lips and that was pretty painful but nothing else. I also 100% had a purge phase. My skin has never looked worse than in those fist couple months on the meds but then it was just gone. I hope you look back years from now on your experience and have a good outcome as well!
I sincerely hope and pray it works for you, Taylor ❤ You deserve to know what clear skin feels like, love. I'm pulling for you all the way, hon 💋
I have always respected the heck out of you for doing what you do. The fact that you have acne prone skin and STILL try a shit ton of different foundations knowing they could irritate your face makes you so brave. It's something that you don't ever see in the beauty community here on RUclips literally except you. You do it for your fans and don't ever think twice about it. You are strong and brave and all the people who have said mean stuff to you are horrible people!! I think you are an amazing person inside and out and I know there are thousands of people who think the same!! Keep on doing what you do girl! We love and support you!!❤️❤️
wow those comments really hurt my feelings because you are such a great person taylor ❤️ you look beautiful with and without make up , plus you're smart , have an amazing work ethic , funny , witty , cute style and a beautiful personality 💕 you're literally perf😍
You do what you need to to make yourself comfortable. At the end of the day, your body is your body.
Speaking of, can we get a tutorial on your eye makeup? It looks stunning! I love the colors ❤❤❤
I am 55 and went on accutane 40 years ago when it first came out of trial phase. It cleared up but had to go back on short course again at 40. Love your confidence, honesty and generosity of spirit
I watched this video while washing my face at night, taking care of the skin I used to hate. I had acne since I was 12 and now that I'm 20 it is finally going away, after using antibiotics and topical treatment prescribed by a dermatologist. Now, when I look in the mirror, I can see myself, not the acne and imperfections of the skin. Now I love my skin, I think it's stunning, even tho I still have discoloration that is slowly fading, some scaring and some blackhead. Probably is not what is normally considered to be a beautiful skin, but now I feel so good inside it! Watching your video I really hoped that you can finally feel what I feel, and love and enjoy your skin free of acne and tons of make up to cover it up. Good luck! 🍀
Selene Frederick just stay strong, and remember not to fall...
Same! I got my cystic acne at 12, and now I'm halfway to 20. It's finally clearing up, and it took antibiotics and stuff. I'm just praying for clear skin, it's all i ask. I haven't had clear skin in 7 years! I hate cystic acne.
This is such an amazing video. I think this might be one of my favorites that you have done. I’m sorry for all the negativity you have received but I am also really blown away by your confidence despite the comments. Your confidence is so beautiful! Thanks for sharing this with us!!
Heather Huglin I
i have tried so many things before finally committing to accutane. It was a last resort for me as well. i’ve been on it for three months and so far, everything’s been fine! i’ve just had really dry lips and semi dry skin. i hope it all clears up and i won’t have to worry about it anymore. my acne has always been one of my biggest insecurities and it actually had a huge role in the development of my anxiety and depression. watching your videos really makes me feel more confident and you’ve taught me so much!
I have acne too and over the past few months i just decided that my face is my face and its gonna do what it wants so i finally accept it.I hope that it goes away soon but when it looks like its going it comes right back.Thanks for making videos showing your skin and doing makeup it makes me so much more confident with my face🖤🖤🖤
Your best video. This will help so many people. You spoke so confidently and ellegantly. THIS is when RUclips is at its best. Best wishes on your journey! ❤️
One of the reasons I started watching your videos is because I have periods where my acne can look like yours and I was trying so hard to cover it up with makeup without doing a horrible job at it. As well as I am trying to become confident and comfortable in my skin. I get cystic acne on my chin and at times it was so bad that I would cry and not want to go anywhere where people would see it. Watching your channel has helped me become more comfortable in my skin and I thank you for that!!!!😊💕
I truly admire you. I think your fantastic! I’ve had acne sense I was 10 I’m 45 now. I can’t find any meds that work. Im so scared to where makeup. But I’m learning a lot from you. So thank You for making these videos and I’m glad I found your channel.
Pamela Masci did you try accutane?
Sena C no I have not
Pamela Masci I've suffered w/acne for 30 years./44 yo now. Tried everything. I was on accutane in my 20's. Did ok for a while but came back. Just last yr my GP doc put me on BACTRIM 80 mg , 1 pill at night, which is antibiotic. Take daily. It has completely "cured" my acne. There is a generic and it's cheap. Check it out.
I have been on that didn’t work for me but thank You
Holy shit! Why are people so fucking mean?! This is a beauty channel! Taylor you’re beautiful! 💗
Day 4 Accutane. I struggled with acne all through my teens and now through my twenties. I was running away from Accutane for the longest time. But now i think i was mentally ready to go on. Tried multiple other medication, oitments, products. You name it! I spent on it!
Literally, my self-confidence took a huge toll on my mental health. Hated when random people and family commented and made it “obvious”. But over the years I decided to take things in my hand and keep my head high with whatever flaws i have. I am proud of who i am and totally confident with my skin.
I honestly watched all you videos before going on Accutane and skin doing so to help me through this journey. ❤️
So proud of you. Can’t wait to see the updates and how your skin changes. I’ve been on accutane for the second time now for 4 months and I’ve already noticed a huge change in my skin. Excited to see how it works for you ❤️
Kyra Rachelle Can I ask why you're on a second round of it? did it come back?
This video certainly clarifies everything you've already tried - God love ya. Another part of me thinks it's sad that you had to explain your reasoning behind your decision to use Accutane. It's your body, not mine or anyone else's. I hope your results are stunningly successful and exactly what you're hoping for. You may be less than half my age but I certainly look up to you. Anyone would be truly blessed to have you as a mentor. ❤️❤️❤️🖤❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much for this I have been suffering for so long with acne since I hit puberty and at 21 Ive just broke out all over my face and body. Ive been locking myself inside but you have given me a new confidence where Ive started taking a big interest in make-up again, going out and not caring what people think anymore. Ive realised you can still be beautiful with acne, Im grateful for your channel you deserve more notice than these other big youtubers who never show their real skin. THANK YOU!
I love how in the thumbnail she kept the haters names on the comments. FUCK THE HATERS GIRL!! Put their asses on blast!! You're beautiful
I just generally think people should be accountable for the things they say, on and off the internet.
George's comment is just ridiculous to the point of where I'm laughing at it
Name em and shame em girl
I can’t believe people actually leave those kinds of heartless, nauseating comments. You are just stunning, I have always loved you and your skin. 💗
Thank you for this. So many of us suffer and are judged for a condition that is not as easy to heal as one may think.
Good luck with accutane Tayla! im on accutane currently for the second time and I cant say enough good things about it, I hope you get the results you want ❤️xxx
People suck. Stay strong honey. I appreciate you.
I have acne now, and honestly I never thought I would get it and it has shattered my confidence. You are so strong to do a video and push through the hate because it’s so hard when nothing works and you have everyone judging you. Good luck with accutane! xo
I've been an OG subscriber here and I've not only watched your channel grow but also you as an individual. I absolutely love you!! You're the very reason I started my own channel because you give me so much inspiration. You're one of the few big RUclipsrs that actually keeps it real with your subscribers. And I can't thank you enough for that. I'm so excited for you to start this next chapter of your life. But either way I think you're beautiful!!! Love you chick!💋💋
+Foundation Fairy aw thank you so much! 🖤
Foundation Fairy Taylor is def the reason I started my channel too! She’s so inspirational &I’ve slowly grown to love the skin I’m in (even though I’m on accutane too lol).
