Do You NEED a Skincare Fridge? Cosmetic Chemists & Dermatologists Explain | Skincare w/

[@miriamgaby2813]

As an esthetician, I agree that it is not a necessity but definitely fun to have. I have one myself and I enjoy the “luxury” of it. It’s just adding to the aesthetic of my collection and self care.

[@AnnaFryxell]

I was SO surprised by the experts answers. I thought they’d for sure say not to use one. 🤯

[@speerrituall1]

It’s a mixed bag. Some say yes, some say no!

[@veronicaivanova]

Me too

[@jclyntoledo]

I mean you can just add it to the shelf in your fridge unless you don't have space...

[@breathless_siren]

I'm not surprised. These influeners are an echo chamber of shilling

[@starlitexo]

@@speerrituall1 what about climate changes? my room tends to be hot because of the radiator and although I have it far away from there. I’ve noticed my items have been hot or warm. I wonder if it’s necessary for that situation

Literally looked at the title & said "You gon' make me get one...SUSAN!!!".

[@goodnight1931]

I love Hyram's and James Welch's channels, but Susan truly gives out the best, most evidence based knowledge on formulations, ingredients, skincare devices etc. Love her❤️

[@excessivelybored]

I got to say, I really appreciate you going above and beyond by consulting so many experts! Hearing all the different points brought up by the experts helps getting a really in-depth perspective. I always thought skincare fridges were gimmicky, but it's interesting to hear that there are some cases where it can be helpful!

[@dayramartinez1906]

this is impressive like susan's personal experience and opinions and the chemists and derms i wasn't expecting so much thought about it really liked the list of products that could benefit from the fridge. i'd love to have one just a tiny fridge is so cute and i've seen the line friends one omg so cute but really rn i'd have to choose between a skincare fridge or skincare products lol imagine open the fridge and it has nothing inside :(

[@leonamay8776]

Buy yourself a cute box (or regular Tupperware/bento/lunch box) and put your products in your regular fridge? That way you won't have to choose.

[@midnightoasis]

Love you Susan! I also want to add, it also depends on which part of the world you live in. Coming from South East Asia where the bedrooms use airconditioning, and when it's off, the room and bathroom can get really hot and humid. So a fridge will definitely benefit in prolonging the shelf life of products and also keeping a consistent temperature for the skincare to work at its optimal level.

[@sam.anna.ash.]

Yup, my stuff has a whole dedicated shelf on my fridge door!

[@Jen-zk9se]

My skincare fridge is the entire inside door of my kitchen fridge 🤣 Who needs condiments anyways....

[@jclyntoledo]

Thank you! 😂 This is what I was saying unless you have no fridge space you don't need it

[@CurlyFries120]

Nice! 😆🔥😂

[@aloafofbagels6381]

Knowing me, someday I'd end up accidentally putting my moisturizer on a sandwhich lol

[@lisaleone2296]

There is a weird skinny shelf on my fridge door under the big bin where the gallon jugs go and I was keeping pet medications there. It fits the bottles from The Ordinary perfectly. The top door bin where people normally put butter, which has a flip up cover, is also an option.

[@morgandonato435]

[@moonlitskyes]

this helps so much omg especially considering how many experts you asked to consult on the topic 😅 I bought a skincare fridge back when I didn’t know so much about skincare in general so I’m really glad it’s not a waste of money lol

[@user-gn3ym3wj8i]

@EmJay that is disturbingly relatable 😂 surprise surprise!

[@gwenlynn7261]

Using a chilled cleanser or toner or serum feels soooooo good on the skin. In winter my skin is so sensitive and more dry and cooling my skincare products is such a relief.

[@gwenlynn7261]

[@gwenlynn7261]

@e en yes! Haha

[@Zucifer8]

Some people say that fridge is too small. But I would put only my most expensive products I own in the fridge if I were to get one, personally. So, that would be my Skinceuticals vitamin C serum, SK-II pitera essence, any other high priced serums/essences/treatments I have. All my other skincare (like Eucerin or CeraVe moisturizers, petrolatum-based healing ointments, random oils, etc) will just stay out as usual. A bigger fridge would be more costly anyway, I'm sure.

[@Mad_Madam_MiM]

I too was very surprised to hear what all the experts had to say about a skincare fridge. I got one about a year ago and I love mine. I suffer from eczema so to be able to put my ointments in it was a plus but to be able to use it also for my skin care was great as well. I didn't need it but I wanted it big difference. I also did my research before I got one so I knew what I could and couldn't or rather shouldn't put in it. But I have enjoyed it since I have gotten it. It is a luxury product and does take up a lot of room so if you don't need it then don't get what in my opinion, even though I do have one. I really enjoyed this video and all the experts opinions on a skin fridge. Thanks y'all

[@swatush4u]

Hi! So I've heard that skincare fridges make a lot of noise. I wanted to ask whether your fridge does that too? Or is there like a specific brand which doesn't make a lot of noise?

[@jackiem.259]

I love how you put this video up bc my husband just got me a skincare fridge for Valentines Day and I cannot wait to set it up. I wish my bathroom had another plug to add this on our ledge in our bathroom but we will make it work lol!! I had already had my tools and masks in the fridge but now my eye cream and serums in there!! Yesssss 😬

[@anaa5325]

My mom always kept her skincare in regular fridge long before this skincare fridge hype began. As I remember, back in 70's 😁

I got one Christmas 2019. I use it for vitamin c to keep it stabilized. Also my jade roller and Cbd. LOL

“Any type of food that you’re gonna put on your face”....just sounds so wrong 😂

[@SusanYara]

Lol. It’s true.

[@victoriawejko]

I love my fridge! I get super puffy so it's so nice to have everything handy. Yes could I put it in my normal fridge...yes but my master bathroom is on the second floor and I know I wouldn't go down to grab my items. Call it lazy, but when I get ready I like it to be self care and my fridge just adds to that experience

[@tina_smt]

My skincare fridge is a mini bar fridge and it’s stuffed full 😂 I love mine. In the summer, my apartment is boiling hot. So for me, the skincare bad fridge is a necessity.

[@ArtsyIslandGirlJamaicanVlogs]

Nope 😁😂. I can keep it in my fridge fridge 🥰

I was recently diagnosed with Rosacea and definitely can see the benefits of having cooling sensation with applying my products. I hope that my new fridge will be of value to my new skincare routine but more importantly, help with reducing the redness in my face. This is the exact type of video that I was hoping to research for. Thank you.

[@seesthesky808]

I have a mini fridge but no where to put it right now.. so I have a little container to put certain products in to keep them cool, keep shelf life longer and enjoy the benefits. I put this container in the fridge on the door. Especially somewhere like Hawaii where it’s hot and humid year round. We keep many things in the fridge to keep from molding. (My bf from the mainland thinks it’s weird lol.) I get a container to ensure all my products are lid tight and away from food.

[@mryshkh]

Thanks for this thorough and honest explanation. I wish I'd seen this before I put two of my shea butter moisturizers in there and it ruined their consistency. Still glad I got one for my vitamin C, tools and organic lube but otherwise, it's definitely not a necessity for most people's skincare products.

[@roseemich]

thank you for this! i have been debating if i should get one or not, you just helped me decide!

[@tedmiller3437]

This is also a waste of electricity. Even if you’re not environmentally conscious, you probably don’t want an increased charge each month on your energy bill over a skincare fridge. Electrical equipment that actively change temperature (e.g a kitchen fridge or a laundry dryer) use the most electricity, so even a small fridge continuously running is going to increase your monthly bill.

[@CozyArtShop]

Omg! I had no idea Naturium is your brand! I found it in Shoppers Drugmart so I know that it’s relatively easy to get. I absolutely love the moisturizer and might get a skincare fridge or just a mini fridge

Don't have the space. I co opted a few shelves in the door of the regular refrigerator. I keep my Vitamin C and Lactic Acid in it, along with my Avene and Adapolenes, apparently those really need to be kept cold. I also keep some unopened peptide serums in the fridge. Also my tubes of Retin A are in there, but I don't put my Curology prescription in there.
