Barrier Support Skincare Routine (PM: Acne/Dry Skin)

[@angelaquigley396]

I’m sure I speak for a lot of your subscribers when I say we appreciate you being real and still filming after a very normal procedure. If you do get any negative comments, meh. Because the reality is you most likely helped someone else to decide to get something finally done that they may have been hesitant to do and that it’s ok. Being a late comer to skincare I did heavily leaned on KZbin and the lovely skincare influencers here. You are by far my favorite. 💕 Thanks for your hard work!

[@AliceintheRabbitHole]

Thank you so much for the kind words! I think the negative comments just kind of come with the territory (some will say “well they put themselves out there!”) but I do wish they weren’t looks-oriented. Things people can change=okay to comment on. Other comments are definitely “…why be mean 😐” But I do appreciate the kindness greatly, thank you! 🥰

I like the way adding a healing ointment at the end feels to keep all my efforts locked in.

The Marilyn Monroe comment made me think of those folks who swear by bag balm and beef tallow. Hey, whatever works for your skin.

Oh no not beef tallow 🙈 …I suppose that is true, but that is certainly past anything I would try LOL

Then there's ofcourse horse oil, much loved in Japan, China and Korea. It's supposed to be really, really good for dry skin. And it's a byproduct of horse meat industry so it's not like it's causing animal suffering or anything. But I just can't. Cannot. Nope. 😃

[@0hkjnn]

​@@satutoivonen9679 it might not be causing more suffering, but it is a result of animal suffering. Plus, if the demand outgrew the supply, it would create its own market. (Old comment, I know, just wanted to add my 2 cents!)

You’ve convinced me to try the FAB toner. I’ve had my eye on it for years bc the ingredients list is so, so great but I’ve been 🤷🏻‍♀️about other products from them (adored the serum before they changed the formula) and everything else I tried has a scent that reminded me of baby formula & I did not enjoy it, lol. But this looks/sounds too good 😍 Thanks for the tip about ordering from them directly!! $24 retail, on sale on their website for $12 and I got a 15% off welcome gift so it cost me $10.80. Even if I hate it (which I don’t think I will), totally worth it ❤

Today in the shower while washing my hair I was thinking that you could make videos about hair care. My reasoning is that you have long coloured hair, which looks healthy. So maybe you could make videos about your haircare routine, products and any styling tips/tricks you use for growing long hair. I know I don't have the same hair type as you, but I would watch your videos. Just a thought lol.

Maybe a sort of random assortment of requests but this came about because I've been seeing a lot more AHA products for the body lately including from Trader Joe's (who has a Vitamin C Body Butter with Glycolic Acid) and Hero (who has a Mineral Melt with Glycolic as well). Made me think that just in general there aren't a lot of reliable videos on these two lines (not just the body items, but skincare as well) so it would be interesting to hear your take!

[@gwendolinehall1386]

This is funny because I just had a mole removed from my nose, it was probably done the exact same way your fibrous papule was, I had it done on Friday the 13th (Jan). I didn't even notice your nose, before you had this done, and I didn't actually notice the red spot in this video until you brought it up. As for the wound, for me, I did the bacitracin for a week, I continued with that and vitamin E until I had a scab for a while, my Dr gave me no instructions except "bacitracin". The scab took what felt like forever but it finally came off and I have to say it was SO hard to not mess with it! Now I have a red spot on my nose. The mole was right over my nostril so it was really tricky for the plastic surgeon. They need to go deep enough to get as many roots as they can so it doesn't grow back but because of the location above the nostril, it's hollow underneath. At the moment there's a red circle on my nose, and the slightest round depression where the mole used to be, and I wonder if it will fill in more as it heals. The procedure is scarless because of the cauterizing tool but I am curious to see if any evidence of the mole and procedure will remain. I will say of the procedure, the numbing shot was AWFUL right in the nose, holy cow what a burn! It tickled my sinuses. And I get 400 units of Botox(xeomin) every 3 months for cervical dystonia, so I am used to injections. But oooowwww! Thankfully I felt nothing the rest of the procedure, except my heart pounding. The pain from that shot spooked me! Took probably less than 5 min. I'd do it again. I had a dermatologist in Texas quote me $500 to slice it off, leaving a large round scar because he wouldn't use anything like the scarless procedure method. He said a plastic surgeon would probably charge me $1000. That derm also saw my large pores and called my sebaceous filaments black heads so I didn't trust a word he said after that lol. I moved to NY and got a quote from the plastic surgeon I used, it was $350 for the scarless procedure! Idk what that derm was smoking but I'm glad I waited to talk to a plastic surgeon. Hope yours heals well!

[@AliceintheRabbitHole]

It does sound like a similar process! Was cauterized for me as well, and I was shocked by how quick it was. I had mentally prepared for a slow agony, but i think it was under 5 min as well? I was told it might scar though, but at this point I’m not really worried about it. Much happier to get rid of it as I hated that it was…elevated. I work so hard at having smooth skin LOL! Same conclusion for me: I’d do it again, especially knowing it’s that quick!! I am worried about the upcoming itch factor though. Oh god no I’m actually dreading that part!! 😅😅

[@gwendolinehall1386]

@@AliceintheRabbitHole the scab part is the absolute worst. Days of wanting to touch it out of habit, itch, curiosity, fear that I messed it up if I blew my nose without thinking carefully about where to place the tissue, and then skincare junkie troubles. Congestion from not being able to exfoliate was driving me nuts! 😂 I'm still not sure what products to use/not use on it. It's red, but it's fresh skin. I don't know if brightening products are ok, gentle ones like niacinamide? probably fine, azelaic acid? I'm not sure. Tretinoin, not for a while. The only thing I hear about potential scarring is the vitamin E mantra, I wish there were better guides for skincare hobbyists.

[@Jan-bella]

There is blank sheet-mask that you can add toner or whatever the ingredients on it on yesstyle. So, you don't miss any spot on your face, like cotton pads you used. By the way, I have been using Briogeo mango shampoo on my oily scalp. It seems to work. I hope it will last. Thanks for your recommendation.

The new Revlon foundation, I rarely buy foundation as love my light coverage (BB/CC/Tinted Moisturizers) but I really want to try that foundation. Sounds wonderful and a great price compared to the IT CC (however the original I find to heavy but I like the new one I tried in Sephora and will buy next, almost done with my tinted moisturizer then Purlisse w/spf is next. That is my daughters fav so I bought one to try! I need to get on that Revlon one. I did shade match and it says I am Creamy Natural shade. Thanks for reminder!

[@AliceintheRabbitHole]

It’s very different from IT cosmetics cc cream! I would say it kind of does feel like a tinted moisturizer in how it spreads, although it’s lighter. Almost weightless, which is a huge appeal for me! Not too dewy (on dry skin), but very flattering! I also don’t use a lot of powder with it as it doesn’t seem to need a ton and I feel it’s just as nice applied with fingers as a brush. Just easygoing and very comfortable, which is so up my alley right now. I want easy-peasy makeup these days haha!

[@masonjeq4261]

Its interesting to see the list of different routines you have and how 3/4 of the different routines (I believe hyperpigmentation qualifies though I might be wrong) center around the acne in some way, shape or form. This may have been addressed in your videos before, and sorry if it didn't stick, but I'd be interested to hear in follow-up videos how you see the perceived value of the different routines. I've always conceptualized acne treatment as an effort I'd associate with setting up a quarantine zone on the face, almost exactly as you're doing with nose currently (btw props on your attitude about it as I see no big deal but recognize there's a bit more to it when you're on KZbin). While acne prevention I'd presume would require treatments across the face, when a pimple was popping up or you're dealing with post-acne hyperpigmentation I think you'd focus more on the specific spot. This could mean minimizing the use of actives in that area, applying a spot corrector/patch, or even post hyperpigmentation products. That said I don't regularly deal with acne so I may be missing a critical element. As far as the barrier support I agree its an "at all times" focus. I use liquid gold twice a day and several other products that I consider synonymous with skin/barrier health on a regular basis. I also am all for the "non-minimalist" approach. I'm actually more focused on time than number of steps, though I probably don't leave enough time between steps (4 toners/essences in under 60-80 seconds may not be the most efficient application process)

[@AliceintheRabbitHole]

Ah, it’s that there’s a certain time of the month where I have to amp up the acne care (yay hormonal acne 😅). It actually does work, at least in terms of reducing breakouts, but I don’t like or need to keep it going all month as it does make my skin a bit more dry!

[@heathersargent289]

I can't believe I have not tried stratus liquid gold yet I have tried the Leave beauty version and I didn't like that one. RNW ceramide plus serum is definitely a part of my barrier repair routine . I notice alot of my routines are mostly barrier support ceramides peptides and antioxidants but sometimes I throw in a mild exfoliant in but really I just have been doing dermalogica microphoilant in the am a few days a week as a mild exfoliating product and that's been good . I want to love retinoids I just can't seem to get threw it. Omg did u see the new lip basting trend 😂 aha toner lip oil and cicaplast on ur lips it's always something on tik tok with trends idk if I would want to put the ordinary glycolic acid toner on my lips sounds painful .

The smell of Liquid Gold comes from the Sea Buckthorn oil. I just bought a tube (before learning about the affiliate code). The scent immediately brings me back to being 18 and my mom swearing this oil she just learned about would be the cure for my acne. Spoilers: it wasn’t

[@AliceintheRabbitHole]

Oh how I wish there was one ingredient that was the fix for acne! 😩 instead, it’s more of “here’s 376 options, 276 will do nothing, 90 will make things worse, 10 will help but combining them wrong can be disastrous, and none will be sufficient entirely on their own”. The struggle is real!

[@andie1508]

Wait, what did you have removed? I missed that, you said it so quickly! 😆 Also sorry to be off topic but I noticed you had a mini of the Drunk Elephant new Vit C serum a few weeks ago. How'd you like that? Just wondering because I was given a full size and I haven't opened it yet. I feel like opening it is a commitment since it starts oxidating immediately and I don't feel like I'm ready to use it daily yet. Wanna get some more reviews first. (Also- an updated DE review is something I'd love to see if you are ever so inclined!)

[@AliceintheRabbitHole]

Fibrous papule! What a name, huh? 😆 Apparently it’s a common development that happens on the nose (…no pun intended?) I tried all the skincare on it for years, finally a doctor told me it was all futile. When they develop, there’s no way to get rid of them non-surgically. Still took me 3 years from that diagnosis to actually get it removed (because, big baby!) The DE is surprisingly great!! It reminds me of C-Glow in that it’s doing the “not oxidizing immediately” thing. I suspect this is a testament to the system working as planned. Upon mixing, you get a truly fresh bottle. So fresh that it will likely take a while to even begin the oxidizing process. I’m impressed!!

[@seed0118]

Have you tried the Hyggee hyaluron gel cleanser? I wonder how it compares to the Rovectin cleanser. I bought the Hyggee's 400ml bottle on a whim 😅 and loving it.

Hi! Penny sent us your channel as a recommendation, and I have been binging your videos ever since!! I was curious to know why you prefer your tretinoin to the curology? I am using agency at this time and just wondering your opinion and if you think it's better to just purchase outright and where you purchase from! Thank you!!!

[@AliceintheRabbitHole]

Why I prefer adapalene? Adapalene is a synthetic retinoid that targets acne specifically (my biggest foe LOL!) I think tretinoin is a great option in general, but adapalene feels heaven-sent in terms of what it’s done for my acne. Hope that helps explain it!

[@janesmitson7404]

Great video...i have dry skin and I should buy the Stratia Gold product. SO....when would you apply, a Retinoid product, or/and RNW Cerimide Plus Serum, or/and Azelaic Acid for pigmentation?

[@AliceintheRabbitHole]

The RNW is such a flexible product that I apply that one anytime, and in fact I love it on my retinoid nights! AzA is best used at night. So you could alternate those routines for a great pm system!

[@amyrodwell17]

Hello Alice! Just applied my liquid gold (in the am) with cica plast as having a reaction to something. It's not terrible but making me a bit blue. I've not tried a new product for about 2 weeks, yet over the last 3 days something has aggravated my skin. I may have used an old product with a newer product I'd not tried before and that's causing the reaction. Can you react to a product a couple of weeks after introducing it? And I guess separately you might be fine with products, then when you mix them BOOM!

[@AliceintheRabbitHole]

I know that story all too well (as well as the blues that go along with it!) Yes, it could be a more latent reaction, which is typically what I experience as well. It could also be completely unrelated to products. For example, I struggled in January and kept trying to figure out what I was doing wrong. When we saw our heating bill (which was waaay up), i realized it was most likely the big change in humidity that was to blame. There’s so many factors that go into skin…unfortunately! Which does make it so darn difficult to figure it all out 😭

[@heathersargent289]

I'm not a skincare minimalist by any means I invest time in both morning and evening skincare routines..lol I use to love the FAB oat toner but then they changed the ingredients on me and the last bottle I bought was different then the first 2 idk if they changed it again in the past year but I want to try the purito oat toner really bad to see if it was kinda of a dupe for the FAB oat toner I once soon of time loved and Kelly D seems to absolutely love it. Girl ur nose looks fine I don't see what the big deal is or why anyone would be mean to you about it. Kinda looks like that FAB went back to the og ingredients for the FAB now that I look at the ingredients list maybe I'll have to try it again girl it smells like oats 🤣

[@ultraviolettas]

Hi Alice! I have a question. If you use a lot of barrier repairing products while you’re using exfoliating products, is that counterproductive or does it actually help the exfoliation by building the skin back up and is more preventative of over-exfoliation? If that makes sense?

[@AliceintheRabbitHole]

As in right before? You wouldn’t want to start with barrier boosting products simply because chemical exfoliators need a lower pH. But you absolutely could start with an AHA toner/serum and follow with barrier care.

[@ultraviolettas]

@@AliceintheRabbitHole does the barrier care “””undo””” the exfoliation? Like do they cancel each other out? Or do they work better together?

[@masonjeq4261]

@@ultraviolettas secondary opinion, but I don't believe there is a correlation like what you're describing, in fact I see the two efforts as collaborative.. Exfoliation works on removal of dead skin cells sitting on top of the skin that can impede product penetration, create roughness, etc. Image a piece of paper (the skin barrier) with some sand (buildup of cells) sitting on top. Proper levels of exfoliation will wipe away the sand without damaging the paper. The skin barrier keeps moisture in and external forces out. A damaged skin barrier causes severe issues including sensitization, acne flare ups, and severe redness so you certainly wouldn't want to exfoliate to the point of damaging the skin barrier (a common problem). Personally I view barrier support as a cooperative element of exfoliation vs. detrimental because it reinforces the piece of paper by supplying living cells with nutrients need for support to ensure that your exfoliation doesn't create unintentional damage.
