Clinique made me break out so bad in my early 20's that I'm still traumatized. The lady at the store INSISTED I had oily skin and I totally believed her because those were the dark ages before skinfluencers. What I have is dry, sensitive skin, but my face begins to sweat as soon as I walk into a store in the winter. She saw sweaty and thought oily.

Hey, Cassie...the first sunscreen was invented by an AUSTRALIAN (not an Austrian...) way back in the early 1930s. I’m an Aussie and we’ve been pretty obsessive about the sun’s rays since the early 1980s, having he highest rate of skin cancer in the world (Anglo-Celtic skin plus huge rays - my human biology teacher always said we don’t biologically belong here, unlike our indigenous people). To this day our TGA (Therapy Goods Administration - like your FDA) makes brands jump through so many hoops when they want approval to sell sunscreen here so many give up, and we can’t buy a lot of the sunscreens you have because of this. Australians always laugh when we’re called Austrians, by the way.💋

I used to develop rashes whenever I wore lipstick/lipgloss, she said that it was allergies to what’s in the lip products so she suggested Clinique because it was hypoallergenic (didn’t work). Years later I found out that it’s because my skin is super dry and I found a magical thing called lip balm!! That solved all of my lip problems.

Hold up, it had _acetone_ in it? In a facial toner? Oh my god.

[@JasminMiettunen]

I have depression too, and it helps to remember that like she says, all you really need are cleanser, moisturiser and sunscreen. If you don’t have oily skin, you don’t need to cleanse in the morning, if you leave the house just sunscreen is enough, and if you don’t go outside you don’t need anything in the morning. At night a cleanser and moisturiser is enough, though sometimes I skip that too if I didn’t leave the house so I don’t have any sunscreen, makeup or pollutants on my skin lmao Then if you can, adding one treatment step in between the cleanser and moisturiser is plenty, just targeted at what your skin needs. If your skin is fine, you don’t even need that, but if you're trying to treat something, that’s when consistency is important. I can get away with a day of not leaving the house and not touching my skin, but if you have acne or something, it might be harder.

As an esthetician I had a male client in his late 20's early 30's that started to do a full skin scan with his derm in his early 20's and I was like yesssss! It's so important to make sure your skin is healthy!

[@mdonbrosky88]

Yes PLEASE! I'd appreciate a video about how to be consistent with skincare routines, and how to start and stick with new skincare habits!!! It seems like im repeatedly starting over - I'll start a routine, keep up with it for a few weeks or months, see SOME SMALL improvements, end up not following through, and eventually go back to bad habits (like going to bed without washing my face, or forgetting SPF in the am, overdoing it with oils, using too many or too little products). Before long I realize I've got to start again at square 1 and I never get to see any of the amazing, trully effective, LONG-TERM results that so many people I see online and in my own life get to experience because i have such a hard time maintaining a consistent routine. Always changing products, adding too much at once, being super on point with my skincare for short bursts but then always falling into depressions where I'm literally doing nothing at all for weeks or months at a time. Ugh! A video on this would be AWESOME!!!

Microneedling at home is not a problem if you have educated yourself a bit on the matter on how to do it properly, probably one of the most important things is getting a quality dermaroller with medical grade needles, been doing it for over a year to treat my scars with excellent results.

I knew you were going to hate microneedling but wow it has made such a difference in my skin. I DO make sure to sanitize my stuff and only use it when I know I'll be in a sanitary environment without the need for a mask for a day or so. I think it has been magical

[@stevieann2563]

I think a lot of people MN at home not all can afford going to get it done by a doctor or spa place they never mention the cost when talking about dont do at home go get it done by a doctor. I admit I MN at home and have seen such improvement ive never had any issues she mentioned i know its a risk but I also know the risk can also happen in doctor offices. I just can't afford getting it professionally done.

[@annabolton7543]

Ya I never had problems micro needling at home and also did it professionally and it’s usually way deeper and more aggressive in office. If you sanitize and know what your doing it can be fine plus there’s needle lengths designed for home use.

[@andresharris8433]

She acts like everyone is an idiot when it’s very easy to follow proper protocols to microneedle at home. I’ve done it dozens of times with no issues because I’ve followed good advice from verified sources, something Cassandra seems to think we’re too stupid to do. What I think is stupid is paying someone $400 for one session of something I can do at home six times for $20.

[@rexyambarwati7285]

I live in Iceland, everything in Iceland is expensive. Even for the same products sold in Europe we have to pay at least 30% more here. And everything Icelandic is even more expensive. I don’t know how and why but it just is. Like, imported broccoli is much cheaper than the ones that are grown here lmao. I have been using Bio Effect products for over a year now, the essence, serum and cream, and I swear my skin is much better. More hydrated, supple and tight.

Derma rolling at home is one of the best things for my skin.

Microneedling at 0.25mm depth is just going to facilitate product penetration. Obviously it needs to be sterile, but it's otherwise safe. No need for this hysterical reaction to microneedling without differentiating between various needle depths.

Then hyaluronic acid serum then roll properly horizontally, vertically and diagonally. Avoiding makeup for at least 48 hours. My skin never looked better 🥰 it’s safe to use dermaroller at home if you know what you’re doing. Please don’t discourage people to learn and have the benefits they can get from it. We don’t have to pay much $ to get the benefits of micro needling

[@anniesmolkin7685]

I microneedle at home, but I am extremely cautious and gentle I do it so infrequently for it not to really make much of a difference. It comes with sterilizing tablets and I clean with them as directed and would never use it unsterilized. Also you are meant to apply the serum after not before with mine. And it's recommended to use their toner before of course...I use a seperate red light tool on completely seperate occasions

Day 2 of BEGGING Cassandra to do a video on the Caveman Regimen Oh, and while I'm here, there's a thingy I've heard: your skin (and scalp) can't actually manually adjust its oil production, and that your skin can't really go into "overdrive" when you wash it more often or with more stripping ingredients. There's a study that explored it that came out with results that conflict with the common rhetoric that just about every skintellectual of all different qualifications believe in. Would be super interesting to hear your take!

[@Acidfunkish]

It's not a lot, but anecdotally, I have definitely been able to change my oil production. My hair, especially. I would get oily within a day or washing, and within 2 days, I'd get that kind of uncomfortable feeling when your greasy hair sits one way, and you try to brush it out of that pattern, iykwim? I went straight from washing it daily to leaving it for a week straight, and it was so gross, at first... I had to wear a hat or something for a couple months. I'd recommend trying to do it more slowly, if you try it. But, now, I can easily last 2 weeks, if I have to. It doesn't get "greasy," anymore. I even add some oils onto my scalp and hair, and it still doesn't get greasy. I don't think my hormones or skin type could have changed that much over the 3 months of transition. The only thing that changed was I stopped using shampoo so frequently. A similar thing happened when I changed my face washing routine, to include an oil cleanse / double cleanse (and only using micellar water in the morning), but with a less drastic change. I know we shouldn't assume why things happen with our skin, but it... Kinda makes sense, doesn't it? If you're constantly stripping your skin, it's gotta protect itself somehow. We're such a resilient species, to be able to survive in almost every climate on our planet. There must be reasons for that, because most animals don't do nearly as well in a drastic change of environment. But we can.

[@eduardaarrais]

I'm going to answer you while you wait for Cassandra 😂 the myth is both true and false. If you are washing your face/hair with too harsh ingredients or too often without needing to, you will most definitely get a skin reaction. But it doesn't necessarily mean your skin will produce more oils, your skin can become more dry, dehydrated, flakey, get a rash, a break out, etc. What happens and how your skin reacts to being over stripped depends on the person, their skin type, condition, climate, age, etc. Can not washing so frequently or with more gentle ingredients make your skin/hair less oily? Yes, but also no. If your skin/hair is currently producing more oil due to being over stripped, not stripping it will certainly stop that excess oily production. But it won't stop your oil production as a whole, and it can't make your skin go from oily to normal. The difference is between type to condition. You can fix your skin conditions, but you can't change your skin type, no matter what you do. Your skin type is determined by your DNA, and while it can change through your life (due to climate, age, hormones, etc), your products or washing routine will have no impact on it. All your products can do for your skin type is help you manage your symptoms.

[@potato-whiz]

Dr Dray also said this when she was reacting to Dak Shepherd and Mika Kunis’ hygiene routine a few videos back. It’s apparently not a thing.

Dubai, despite being desert, is actually pretty humid. What might dry the skin out there would be the AC everywhere.

[@Merdragoon]

Fun Fact: I just found out that in the 18th Century, they used to put Zinc Oxide in their moistures, mostly for hiding signs of Small-Pox (probably scars from when they recovered from them) But also to keep the skin from being irritated. It wasn't White Lead in their make up (They didn't actually do clown make up like looks as that was proven False) but the Zinc Oxide in their skin care products. I found out through Abby Cox on KZbin as she also sites her sources so you can look up what she's talking about as she mostly does Historical fashion and it's History. I figured you would like her video "I Followed an 18th-Century Moisturizer & Sunscreen Recipe & it kinda worked??" (The actual title of the video if you want to look it up), even if you don't react to it yourself it would be fun to see what you thought on it.

[@nourtaha5330]

Derma-roller, under 0.5, i believe are fine at home, they just help better penetration of serums and products. I find my skin to be significantly visibly better the next day after i use a derma-roller. The key is to make sure its properly sanitized and properly done.

Watching your videos have made me so much happier about my incredibly pickiness about my skin routine. I have primary immunodeficiency. I’m allergic to a lot of things. There are a lot of skin products that I have an immediate reaction to, like vitamin C. My face will swell so fast I’ll only notice because I can’t see through my swollen shut eyes. I use YonKa cleansing milk, Paula’s Choice BHA exfoliant, and Paula’s Choice Calm mineral spf moisturizer. 2 to 3 times a week, I’ll throw on Perricone MD cold plasma eye and face after the BHA. I’m very lucky that I genetically have amazing skin (Chinese grandma). I’m 45 but get mistaken for someone in their late 20’s, early 30’s. It makes my day to hear someone aggressively denounce some of these treatments that people think it’s okay to do at home. My friend is a 2nd generation esthetician and flipped her lid when I told her I got a derma roller. With my health history, she said exactly what you did about staph!!! Only my immune system doesn’t work, and the staph infection would become systemic. I.e….no one want that!! Thank you Cassandra!!!

Clinique is awesome, I understand hating on the toner, but its one of the only toners I found in a price range that works. Everyones skin is different. I think Clinique has been changing alot lately. I like there probiotic redness solutions cleanser for acne, its stopped my acne. But I also use the ordinary with my Clinique skincare. So Im glad they dont keep changing things, because if they did change the formula I would have to find a new cleanser. Ive tried so many never again. Also this lady has clearly had work done. So if take that into account, who knows what skin treatments she gets on the sides.

for my boyfriend we are building consistency by making things easy. I started by leaving my facewash on the sink telling him to use it at night and follow up with a "cream" (moisturizer). Then introduced the concept of day and night moisturizer. Then got him some serums and told him, these you use before moisturizing - A you use in the morning and B at night. He still misses his morning routine most of the time, but he is very good with the night one and his skin has improved dramatically. I also just patch tested the AHA BHA peeling so we can start using it together on the weekends.

If something works for one person, and they have tried others with not great results, then it makes sense they would keep using the product that works for them. And Clinique isn’t the old lady skincare - that honor goes to Elizabeth Arden. Clinique is the skincare of Gen X, and we ain’t no old ladies.

[@findingfrugal2093]

Thank you for putting into words what I was thinking! LOL I used to really like Hyram then he started going really over the top exaggerating his reactions.....then he started putting filters on his videos. And then of course I realized that he was continually going against his own recommendations when it came to getting sponsorships (glow recipe comes to mind) and I was just done. I get that people basically just watch him for his quirky, fun personality but he's begun to have a huge influence on what people buy (for 8-12 months there was almost no CeraVe left on shelves around me because he recommends them as a fragrance free brand) and I think that's pretty dangerous considering he has absolutely no training in anything related to skincare he was just a Youth To The People salesman before his youtube blew up. And as a borderline GenX/Millenial who definitely used the 3 step Clinique as a teenager I also bristle a little when people tell me that brand is the epitome of an old lady skincare brand. Most of their products don't work for me (their Vit C and Retinol boosters are the bomb though) but they obviously work for a lot of people or they wouldn't still be in business!
