[@elpowell5693]

I can back up that allergy claim. I had no issues with US chemical sunscreens. Used them as a kid and into adulthood. However, about 8ish yrs ago went on a cruise late fall and had hives the entire time. Thought it was the chlorine or bleach. Fast forward to summer and used the sunscreen again (yes I've changed my ways since then and use sunscreen in winter), playing tennis. Low and behold it was the sunscreen that was giving me a reaction. I can't use ANY products that have spf that get absorbed. Thankfully, makeup is fine. Went through mineral sunscreens and hated them. But then I watched one of your sunscreen videos where you were talking about Korean sunscreens. Went on stylevanna after having an ah ha moment where I knew I never had exposure to their chemical suncreens so I figured I'd be fine. I ordered the Beauty of Joseon and haven't looked back! Love the no scent (hated the US chemical sunscreen smell. Its why I never wore it) and it feels amazing on my skin. Best part.... no hives! ❤

[@itsruckaswife7036]

I love that sunscreen too but I don’t trust it 100% on hot days. Mineral sunscreen is my fave, we have the best ones in England I think

[@elpowell5693]

@itsruckaswife7036 Yeah I only use for my face and neck. I turn to a mineral for my body when I'm OK the lake. But the white cast is insane. Is there a place that I could order the England mineral sunscreen? Always looking to add better products to my routine. Just trying to avoid the greasy feeling ones. Hate how I feel like it wipes off on stuff.

[@Min-Taro]

I feel like i need to say this but all sunscreens, chemical, mineral, and hybrid will get absorbed through the skin. Its a matter of how much it gets absorbed but it does nonetheless.

[@20thcenturyrelic]

I'd bet money that you were allergic to fragrant ingredients or added fragrance in the sunscreen. Most, but not all, sunscreens have these. A lot of the time, when people react to skin care, body care, makeup, or hair products, the problem is the fragrance. Ask any dermatologist.

[@elpowell5693]

@20thcenturyrelic That certainly is a possibility. But I've never had reactions to any scented product previously and to this day. Although I do choose to try and go scent free if possible because I am aware it is a potential irritant. However, because of my sensitive skin, I always patch test. Even skin care products I've used that contain a small amount of spf with no scent I had major reactions to. And considering I'm allergic to chlorine and bleach, I wouldn't put it past my skin to react more to the chemicals in the sunscreen versus the scent. 🤔 Regardless of what the allergen is, I still can't use it, and it's something developed over time. Just glad there's other options to protect my skin.

[@cherrybello]

Australian here, I have never seen that paw paw cream, nor is it widely available here in Australia. What I would like to clarify though... THE original Lucas' Papaw OINTMENT of 1890 (comes in simple black and red packaging from Acacia Ridge Brisbane, iykyk) is only meant to be used topically on minor cuts/burns and at most as a lip balm when you have a cold sore, or for treating nappy rash on babies, NOT as an everyday moisturiser. It really is just a miniscule amount of fermented paw paw (papaya as the rest of the world calls it) extract mixed in with vaseline, but amazing at treating cuts and grazes. From what I can gather, the ointment and paw paw cream are very different products, so please don't think they are the same thing.

[@alexisstephenson9716]

Came here to say the exact same thing!

[@adelefreeman5567]

Dr Ragani has a great video on microneedling with a derma roller for those of us who can't afford to come into the office. I've been using a derma roller x 5 years without any issues. I reorder every 6 weeks, sterilize in between once/week use. 😊

[@KhaeLikesCoffee]

I'm glad you put Neosporin on this list lol. Horrible stuff. Haven't used it in years, vaseline is the way to go.

[@Dianawales]

Neosporin would always CAUSE an infection when I used it.

[@SueK-vm8hi]

never had a problem with neosporin creme.

[@pennyrockysmomma4445]

I can’t use Neosporin, or any triple antibiotic ointment because it has sulfa antibiotic in it and I’m allergic to sulfa drugs. I get little green , itchy blisters wherever I would use it, and worse if I had to use a bandaid with it because of the adhesive. I can only use Bacitracin Zinc ointment, sparingly.

[@rutaa3957]

Thank you Cassandra for showing your real skin no filters, no lies, etc. I remember being 16 about 10 years ago looking at filtered pictures and looking at the mirror and crying even though I had no major issues with my skin, I felt so ugly compared to the perfect pictures online that were not real but I didnt know pictures online were fake, I remember such a heartache thinking I was doomed to have bad skin and being ugly for the rest of my life and now I realise I was never ugly I had normal beautiful skin that I was probably should have been proud of, shame I cant go back in time to tell this to my younger self

[@Iambeautiful123]

So true, I used to believe I was so ugly when I was a teenager even though I used to get one pimple here and there and had no spots…. Now, when my teenager daughter looks like me when I was a teen, I realize how beautiful I was…. She has the same skin as mine, same looks as mine… everyone tells me she is my ditto… it took me so many years to understand that I was never ugly.., wish we lived in the real world

[@melissagalech3649]

Cassandra, I've been using those colored loofahs for years! I watch you and a few derms on KZbin and they say they don't use them so I finally ordered a pack of wash cloths specifically for showers! I'm so happy I get to toss my and my partner's loofahs! And! I would wash from feet up. I don't know why! It makes sense to watch from top down so I will be doing that! I do NOT want fungus on my face! Thank you for this video. I'm glad you spoke out about the "home microneedling" and the facial scrubs. I knew microneedling at home was bad but I didn't realize how bad. It makes sense that they make a V shaped tear which is so bad for the skin! Thank you so much for this video! I'm a huge fan of yours. :)

[@wintercandyapple09]

I would throw ours in a laundry bag and wash it every few days. 😅

Those micro needling visuals are terrifying 😅 eeee! I don't think I could do it.

[@Ziq2944]

I haven't used one but might be worth mentioning that there are many videos of people who arent big influencers who have bought and tried everything and will tell you this very cheap contraption is actually one of the only things that actually helps their skin whilst creams, serums etc are just a waste of money. Personally I trust average people who've spent alot of money over their lifetime with true experience ( age helps) and are not trying to sell me a product, but that just me.

[@ladybaabaa3294]

I used to have one of those loofahs. One time I went to use it after a while of not using it, and it was covered in SPECKLES OF MOLD!!!!! (and yep, it had been hanging in the shower) I also used to use one of those at-home rollers...with facial OIL. 😅😅😅 Omg. Not anymore. I also used to use the St Ives apricot scrub, and it made my skin really soft, BUT...after a while, it didn't. And then all my skincare people said my skin barrier was compromised!

[@kindseyvaughn8667]

Since I don’t have much positive things going on in my life right now, I’m going to flex here and say I’ve either never had any of these products, Microneedler and nerospirin, or have bought/used in over 10 years at.Ives (aggravated my acne so haven’t used in over 15 years) and plastic loofas(I’ve always had a bit of a phobia to plastic like apparently hated pacifiers as a baby even). I’ve only recently started using only fragrance free skin care products though.I do want shout out to the Ordinary for making fragrance-free products affordable! I only have one known allergy but you know let’s keep it that way!

[@kryssygee4814]

Thanks for caring about us!! I use the first kind ->soft tutu-fabric type shower loofah. I pull it apart when i buy it until it’s about twice the size. Softer and way looser is the goal. If i overdo the pulling apart i sew it together a tiny bit in the centre. Fun to use. 🚿Afterwards i shake it out well and hang it up. Dries quickly🫶

[@lilacfunk]

Same issue here

[@20thcenturyrelic]

"Cheap" doesn't really matter. What matters is the ingredients. If the product has gentle cleansing ingredients, it's working well for him. I'd bet it doesn't though as so many body washes are poorly formulated. Also, heredity is a factor in skin condition. I don't think it's known right now how much of a factor it is, but it's important. My mom always looked younger than her age and was mistaken for my older sister several times.

I'm worried I may be hurting my skin barrier if I use it, but I don't just want to toss away a 3/4 full cleanser. Please help 😬 I also loooove my loofah, its so soft but i feel clean after using it.

As a massage therapist trained in lymphatic drainage massage, you need to dry brush from the feet upwards, not head to toe, because the point is to move your lymph in the correct direction to move your lymphatic fluid along thise vessels back to the lymph nodes and drain into the heart. Going the opposite way can increase your body's inflammation and swelling. Perhaps a better solution is having one dry brush for Legs and feet, then a different one for the rest of the body. And clean them after use.

[@Deci_Bella]

How do you clean them though?

[@lizcademy4809]

Washcloths

[@Sainbury]

1. Loofah - I have a soft one that I regularly throw in with the whites to get bleached. And it dries off between showers because I set a fan to dry off my towel and it also hits the loofah. 2. You would have to pry my bacitracin zinc, neomycin sulfate and polymyxin B sulfate ointment out of my dead hands. I garden every day and get many cuts and scrapes. I use this under band aides and I do think I heal much faster. 3. Scrubs - use them on my feet because I garden in loafers and my feet get very dirty.

I am literally so confused right now because just a few minutes ago I watched a video by a plastic surgeon who recommends a few cheap derma rollers on Amazon (says he’s not sponsored and receives no kickbacks). He cited a report that they can up your collagen under your eyes by 400% over a period of time! However, your description of why not to use them makes sense, and it is kind of terrifying that I almost used that underneath my eyes.

[@danialhashmi6078]

So what do we use in replacement if the loofah?

What other antibacterial products can I use on my 4yo instead of Neosporin? We live in a tropical climate with tons of mosquitos. He scratches the bites and i need to prevent the wounds from getting infected. It’s common to get staphylococcus infections here.

[@Anne-yd9cm]

Hey Cass, what would be a good replacement for a loofah?

[@lizcademy4809]

I'm not Cass, but know the answer! Use a cloth washcloth you can throw in the laundry. You can dial in the scrubbiness by choosing different fabrics. For little or no exfoliation, use microfiber, high quality toweling, or make your own from flannel. For lots of scrub power, get thin, super cheap toweling cloths. Ideally, you should use a fresh one every day, so you need a lot of them. Depending on your skin, you might be able to use the same cloth several days in a row. You still need to rinse it well and let it dry completely between uses.

Gentle facial cleanser like Vanicream, Cerave or Cetaphil and broad spectrum sunscreen……that’s it, that’s all.

[@DMoz13]

Wow, the neosporin was a new one for me. I need to throw that out. What do I replace it with?

[@ungrateful-66]

Stuff definitely slows down healing

[@TheWhiteGyrfalcon]

I do disagree about the pawpaw stuff. I have a small tube of basically just Vaseline with pawpaw, it's probably the Vaseline that works, but I find it useful for insect bites and spot treatment for boils and pimples. But good advice on the rest

[@PaytonElizabeth05]

I have contact dermatitis relating to fragrance and it took me so long to find a routine that didn’t have any fragrance. I have to do my laundry separately from my whole family and use all free and clear and unscented shampoo and soap because is any fragrance is touching my body it breaks me out. The only thing that I can use that is fragranced is just a little perfume on my wrist and a little bit of deodorant

[@leeshaolivier9298]

My friend still uses St. Ides. She also won't wear sunscreen. I put it on every day (sunscreen), but she said she doesn't need it.

[@iheart2013]

dying to remove the acure scrub

[@sr28774]

So if not a loofa to use the body gel, so should I just use my hands? Is that enought?

[@DMoz13]

Good question.

[@lilyo5248]

your natural curly hair is so much prettier

[@ChristysChannelYall]

I’m a RN who did not know that Neosporin was bad. Wow. Learn something new everyday.

[@Damanique]

This is gonna sound really ignorant but what would be a good alternative for a plastic loofah? I don't like the things either, but I've tried alternatives and found they are too scratchy, or too slimy, or take forever to foam up. I also don't like using my hands. As it is I just replace my loofah often but I dislike the plastic waste. A search online tells me a silicone brush is better, but how is that more hygienic? Won't bacteria still be on it?

[@20thcenturyrelic]

Agree with you 100% about these products, Cassandra! And I own none of them.

[@hopewithcats]

So how do you even replace a loofah? How to exfoliate these dead skin cells without it?

[@Min-Taro]

You can use a body lotion that has exfoliants in it. There are body lotions with urea, aha, bha, and retinol. These are way better than scrubbing your skin as these provide more even and gentler exfoliation throughout your body while also moisturizing it to prevent dryness which a scrub doesnt do.

[@hopewithcats]

I have Some by Mi aha bha pha body lotion, but it’s not really great at exfoliation :(

[@Mary-cw4lf]

Washcloths, new dry cloth every shower. For exfoliating, a small amount of baking soda added to body wash on the washcloth is ideal.

[@Piecesofrainbow9200]

Do you have any control of the ads on your page? A target ad for derma rollers came up next to your face while you were talking about how bad they are for you😮

[@poojawahi2639]

Love your videos!! I would throw out spf15 sunscreens if given full reign 😄

[@20thcenturyrelic]

Huh. I agree with you, but only if replaced with SPF 30 or above sunscreens. I guess...maybe...an SPF 15 sunscreen, although inadequate, is better than none.

[@VB0050]

I’m currently in Acid Time Out 😩

[@plantainandsoju1]

Make a video on dark underarms

[@edennis8578]

That's a sign of insulin resistance. Are you pre-diabetic? Have you had your a1c checked?

[@Deci_Bella]

@@edennis8578 You need to look up what you are talking about before you start scaring people. The condition you are talking about is a darkening of skin that is *velvety* in texture - not just any old discoloration.

[@Lazychick83]

I see dermis on yet recommend u to micro needle at. Home

[@kimberlyfamoly1963]

The facial scrubs/physical exfoliants are great for you feet.

[@MoonlighthighwayStudios]

Definitely throw away the saint Ives!

[@20thcenturyrelic]

Well, you could use it up on your feet. But never buy it again.

[@cathierainwater]

6:35 Number 3, Neosporin (specifically the Neomycin in it) can cause autosensitization.

[@rosela_aesthetic]

Who thinks Cassandra is one of the best KZbinrs?❤❤❤

[@WaffleRedondo]

I don't.

[@scienceislove2014]

​@@WaffleRedondoi do

[@ToMeltdownTown]

Of course she is 🎉❤

[@ToMeltdownTown]

@@WaffleRedondo Then why are you even here 😂

[@WaffleRedondo]

@@ToMeltdownTown I like some of her videos but not a fan. I'm not even vegan.

[@bethanyg153]

I’m obsessed with Demotology and Estheticians. I’ve been trying to talk one of my kids to go into it when she’s an adult. 😂

[@WaffleRedondo]

The VT Reedle Shot is the new St Ives Scrub 😂

[@jessicab7059]

I have so much trouble finding skin products because I have a ton of allergies (including coconut, almond, and oat) and even sensitive skin and scent free products that start out fine for me cause me problems after a while. It really doesn't help that I have such a low budget too. Should I see a dermatologist to figure this out, because I'm at a loss. I'm also chronically ill and have dermatillomania so it's seriously a struggle.

[@dabi9753]

I would be so glad to remove the 3 in 1 cleanser from my bfs bathroom. This is the only thing that sometimes touches his face. He also tends to have dry skin so sometimes when Its itching he just puts on highly fragranced and maybe also expired body lotions on his face. Im crying whenever I see that

[@SeekingGreetings]

I've run my loofah through the washer cycle with the whites. ( hot water, bleach) 🫧🫧Washing machine.

[@melaniealain7622]

Hoooow are you getting commission from these products if you don’t recommend them?

[@lilyo5248]

theyre all affiliated ….. like what???? all her videos are now just infomercials

[@Lazychick83]

My mom and brother use those strong witch hazel toner things, yuck, mom uses the Castile all in one soaps.

[@Jesscabearr]

I’m an MUA, but have to study skin a lot! My friend has a witch hazel “toner” in her bathroom that’s really more rubbing alcohol than the witch hazel 😭 I want to just toss it.
