How To Exfoliate Properly - Exfoliating - What, Why, How And When BHA ✖ James Welsh

[@christinamays4812]

I'll be honest. I use my fingers to apply my liquid exfoliator, I don't like how much my cotton pad absorbs the product. That's money

[@gremmmlinn]

gram floor is the best exfoliator in the world for oily skin When I faced acne I used only gram floor mixed with water and use that as a mixture on my face and cleanse and it completely stoped my acne and have made my skin normal and removed scars It's simply amazing

So physical exfoliating is bad?

[@noa-ix9pe]

For anyone in need of a very gentle compeltely natural exfoliator, I use oats mixed with water, it is sooo gentle, yet still does the job at least for me (oily/combination skin prone to hormonal acne on my chin are) after other physical exfoliators really dried my skin out likr crazy! I use the oat stuff 2 to 4 or 5 times a week. In the stores here one can also choose between soft grain kinda oats and such that have a kind of harder texture, so I can evem vary how intense the exfoliation should be. Just thought I would share this tip, bc it really was a kind of game changer for me when I discovered it😊

[@seunghoessangwoo4101]

@ I mean sugar particle scrubs are fine but the other ones like coffee or walnut scrubs can have uneven particles and do create small tears doesnt it. And if you walk out in the sun without an screen or a good sunscreen, it can exemplify sun damages doesnt it. Chemical exfoliation does induce sun sensitivity as well i mean if we don't wear proper protection

[@mahmudarahmanriatia30]

I love Japanese Exfoliators ( Suisai, Cure Aqua) as the are not harsh as other physical exfoliators and not as strong as chemical exfoliator. They are gentle and will gently remove the dead skin cells

Im the bearded more rugged type that has never done anything more than use my body wash on my face while showering. Luckily people have always said I look 6-8 years younger than I am. If I want to keep it that way I guess I need to start taking care of my skin a little better. Better late than never. Thanks again.

Hey James, awesome video as always :) As a person with spot prone/oily skin, I wanted to get your opinion (yours is the only one I trust lol) on two products: The Body Shop’s Seaweed Oil Control Gel Cream and Vanicream’s Gentle Facial Cleanser.

[@jadeblack5052]

If you're acne prone, I wouldn't recommend the body shop because it actually ruined my face. My skin was okay but oily eith a bit of hormonal breakouts. I used this brand's skin care and in 4 months I got full face of acne and it hurts to touch my face. It took me 2 or so years to finally get rid of acne.

[@sansdemkinley6251]

Damn I go crazy with those physical exfoliators umm gotta do it gently

[@scray00]

I too use the one from tatcha i tend to use it more in the summer when my skin starts feeling gross from the humidity. Then its a chemical one 2 or 3 times as needed. You just need to be gentle. Not all physical exfoliaters are bad

Physical exfoliators are still good imo for removing dry skin patches. I use the St. Ives Oatmeal Scrub (its really really gentle and doubles as a oatmeal mask). I only use small, light, circular motions

I use the NEOGEN Cica pads and I like them, the PHA is really gentle on the skin which means I can use it everyday. Because I’m using it so frequently, I like to think that my skin is always able to absorb products and I rarely have any breakouts when I use it. Sadly though I order my stuff from eBay and it takes a while to arrive. I basically have to not exfoliate for weeks sometimes which makes my skin feel super congested and I get breakouts. 😭

Mr Green i would go for The Ordinary products, The AHA/BHA peeling solution (it’s a strong exfoliant mask, only use it once a week), The niacinamide serum is great if you’re struggling with hyperpigmentation. I also use The 1% retinol in Squalane for getting rid of texture and prevent wrinkles and The Natural Moisturizing factors + HA is also a very good product.

@@ViDaoNoww i only use the cosrx blackhead remover on night routine. So after i clean my make up with cleanser and facial foam, i use toner then cosrx. But only for like 20-25 minute and i put toner with cotton pad to neutralize the acid, just rub it on face not leave it. After that i put essence/ serum/ face oil and sheetmask in weekend

@@scorpioteez233 So you use toner first, then cosrx, then toner again? Lol sorry I'm new to all the skincare steps.

[@scorpioteez233]

@@ViDaoNoww it's okay 😄, i only use toner to neutralize the skin. Facial foam is base in pH (more than 7), so i put toner to make the pH close to normal (7), because the chemical exfoliator is acid solution, it would work better in normal pH than base. Actually skin can adjust its pH into normal by itself but you have to wait like 15 minutes 😅. Then after put chemical exfoliator, you need to balance the pH again so your skin isn't over-exfoliated. Hope it help 😊😊

can I use aha bha vitamin c at a time?or not?also can you tell the using sequesce of these three products?

It is better if you do not use aha/bha serum with vitamin C. You can do a patch test to see how.your skin reacts. You either use an AHA or BHA. As a toner. Not both. It depends upon ue skin type.

[@keithparkhill8546]

Abdul Rokib I would alternate the two. Frankly Vitamin C ln it's L form is a AHA and capable of significant irritation in and of itself. I tend to use Lipo hydroxy acid. It exfoliating ability is 6 percent more than salicylic acid. It's gentler and is effective at a pH of 5.5 . There are no clinical studies showing one AHA better than the other.

Came here for advice on the quantity to use with a chemical exfoliant (currently trying out Paula's choice black bottle 2% BHA). But I'm still a bit confused. I mean, I excluded cotton pads when I saw how much product I wasted with them, so I rather use my clean fingers, and then wash them again after application since idk if it may damage them or not. Meaning, I'm not sure if the quantity you use, would be the same without a cotton pad. And, instructions are unclear to me as it's written "apply small quantity" on the product, but, how much is a small quantity exactly ? Is it like 2 to 5 drops, or 6 to 10 drops ? Or something in between ? Or definitely more and I'm being crazy ? I just don't want to put too much of it... Any help ?

I guess on the subject of chemical exfoliants, do you have any experience/advice with retin-a? I see a lot of female vloggers (especially those of a certain...maturity) who use it, but rarely see men talk about it.

but each exfoliator product is different, we have aha/bha that are like 2% and this one that are 7 % . So If I have a stronger one, than should I use it like 1 a week and skip this lighter ones ? Or is it better to buy only this with low procentage like 2 % ? and than use tham 3-5 times a week ?

Im brown and have acne prone oily skin. How often should I exfoliate?

[@jackmanleblanc2518]

brown bread I'm brown with acne prone oily skin as well so I may be able to help. Personally, when I used physical exfoliators I would use it three days a week. However, I've switched to a chemical exfoliator recently (cosrx BHA power liquid), and ever since I started using that daily I haven't had acne for weeks. I would recommend working your way up to daily usage however. When I first got it I only used it three days a week because I didn't know how my skin would react.
