I tried water-only skin care for 2 years and my acne has all gone | Japanese Skin Fasting

From 2020, I've been trying water-only skin care(it called Skin Fasting in Japan) for 2 years.
I had a lot of acne, but it has gone now.
But it was not so easy, and my skin condition became terrible temporary.
I talked about my experience, how I started, my progress, and things I wish I knew before I started.

I just wanted to come back and say thank you! I have struggled for years with dry dermatitis prone skin that would also break out often. Somehow I found your video, which lead me to read Skin Sobering. I ditched all the skincare products. 3 months in and my skin has never been better. The first few weeks were hard - super dry, then super oily, then super rough and uneven tone. But so worth it. Finally at 34 I have realised what a scam skincare products are. Now I can help my own daughters avoid all wasted time, money and emotional pain I went through!

Are using the this same skincare routine?

[@tiareynolds5728]

Great testimony

[@teknopedia8894]

are u just use water?

[@soupafleye]

water-only likely played a role but many women experience a shift in hormones when pregnant and report their skin clearing up. we’re all different so at the end of the day it’s kinda like who even knows. i used to only use castor oil and some kind of cleanser and my skin was great ever since i was young but i introduced skincare and ruined my skin barrier. i’m just now getting back to “cold turkey” with castor oil and spf. i’d like to use patroleum but it gives me milia so i’m only using it on acne scars since it helps speed up the healing process. thanks for sharing! your skin looks great and strong now

[@christianlyrics20]

Their job is to sell us products. When I ear about layering 7 or 10 products, it's just too much, and I don't think the skin needs all of that. I believe skincare tries to heal the superficial parts, but the real issue lies in the interior, such as what we eat, exercising, stress, etc. I think less is more-just one good moisturizer, a cleanser, and SPF when it's needed. Personally, I see a big difference by focusing on my interior and using fewer products or nothing at all.

[@fuarkbrah0]

Well made video. All the best!

[@Louis-bl8di]

From my experience, Japanese skincare products are quite harsh. Most Japanese facial cleansers are alkaline in pH that really disrupt the microbiome of the skin. Ethanol is in most formulations because Japanese skincare emphasises the idea of penetration (浸透). My skin was like yours until I started using low pH cleanser.

Thank you for the video! Now that I think about it, I never used skincare products before and had less pimples, but when I started thats when I breakout here and there.

Did it get better?​@@Smexy_Ryan

[@growingdying]

@@Smexy_Ryanhey any updates ?💓

[@Smexy_Ryan]

@@growingdying hey, update is a bit long. Basically, pimples minimised. However, my cystic acne persisted and I noticed it's because my skin is oily. I also forgot to mention that I was also using tretinoin but I couldn't stop it because I was already 3 months in. But washing my face solely with water didn't dry out my skin surprisingly, even though I was using the harsh cream. After 6 months of washing my face with water and using Vaseline (along with tret) my cystic acne got worse than ever (I've always had cystic acne but I was starting to develop bruising on my skin) and I had super oily skin so I had to end my washing with face with water journey. In month 8 of my tretinoin journey, I decided to stop because it wasn't helping with my acne and went to get a blood sample to check my hormones. To my surprise, ITS FUCKING FINE. The only concerning thing was that my iron levels were low. This put me into a sad mood, making me feel helpless about my skin. At the end of November last year, I made a promise that I was going to work on my diet and try to improve my skin habits. I've gone back to using Vaseline and again, I've seen improvements on pimples straight away... But my cystic acne is worse than before so I'm just gonna have to wait and see how it goes. Washing my face without soap, I'll have to slowly stop but for now, I'll be washing my face once a day with soap. I'm sorry if this update is too long but I felt it was necessary to tell the full story because although I was washing my face with water and using Vaseline, I didn't mention tretinoin which gave me a different outcome to others. Hopefully in the next update, I'll be able to see results. Wish you luck (if you decide to start as well) ♥️♥️

🔸I just wanted to share my side for whoever needs it: 🔹𝙬𝙖𝙩𝙚𝙧 𝙤𝙣𝙡𝙮 𝙢𝙚𝙩𝙝𝙤𝙙 may work more easily if you don't use products like waterproof sunscreen & moisturizers but as both are necessary daily it may not work as easily for those who dont skip it. 🔹so if you use water only despite using 𝙢𝙤𝙞𝙨𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙞𝙯𝙚𝙧 & 𝙨𝙪𝙣𝙨𝙘𝙧𝙚𝙚𝙣 that doesn't come off with water only it might cause product residue to stay on your face causing you to clog pores. 🔹𝙤𝙞𝙡 𝙘𝙡𝙚𝙖𝙣𝙨𝙞𝙣𝙜 : which is why something else needs to be used for cleansing such as using oil cleansing with oils that dont clog pores & are non-comedogenic like sunflower seed first (to remove the residue from face).the it needs to be wiped off with a soft cotton cloth & washed off with water. 🔹𝙣𝙤-𝙛𝙖𝙘𝙚𝙬𝙖𝙨𝙝/𝙣𝙖𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙖𝙡 𝙛𝙖𝙘𝙚𝙬𝙖𝙨𝙝:wash it off with something that isnt anti-bacterial & doesn't mess up your skins microbiome (good bacteria that help with exfoliation & acne prevention) like fullers earth but as that may be drying if you dont leave the oil on you can use just water too (please dont scrub it, just gently wash it off if you use it as it can be abrasive). 🔹𝙢𝙤𝙞𝙨𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙞𝙯𝙞𝙣𝙜: after oil cleansing & using fullers earth it doesn't strip moisture as much but those who need petroleum jelly they can/use another moisturizer that doesn't disturb my skins microbiome. 🔹Or just use a 𝙣𝙖𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙖𝙡 𝙛𝙖𝙘𝙚𝙬𝙖𝙨𝙝 without preservatives.instead of using oil cleansing (unless you're double cleansing) Theres a brand called honeststory.co on insta that also talks about water only skincare & formulated products that actually protect your skins microbiome. 🔹𝙪𝙣𝙨𝙥𝙤𝙣𝙨𝙤𝙧𝙚𝙙: idk how effective their products are but i m mentioning it because of info they give on their Instagram page which is worth checking out regardless of whether you buy their proucts or not. 🔹I wanted to state their username,but it created the website link instead cuz their insta user name is same as their site. 🔹so visit their Instagram page & read their info too before buying any products because like me you may figure something out without buying em too incase you cant access their products easily/want other options. 🔹𝙤𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙧 𝙤𝙥𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣𝙨: i personally may/may not try em if facewash free method works for me & if there isnt any no-facewash sustainable way long term cuz idk how long i can keep going with fullers earth just yet. So yeah. 🔹𝙧𝙚𝙨𝙚𝙖𝙧𝙘𝙝 : but i think before trying something its worth checking its research if there is any, eg. Honeststory claims preservatives disturb our skins microbiome so checking if thats true needs to be checked. 🔹𝙙𝙞𝙨𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙗𝙚𝙙 𝙢𝙞𝙘𝙧𝙤𝙗𝙞𝙤𝙢𝙚: thy also say anti-bacterial facewashes disturb skins microbiome it too.which is true too & i listed a source below too. 🔹𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙞𝙢𝙖𝙡𝙞𝙨𝙢: so instead of water cleansing using products that you need & ones that dont mess with your skins microbiome might be more helpful too. 🔸𝙧𝙚𝙨𝙤𝙪𝙧𝙘𝙚𝙨: water only method is based on fixing skin microbiome so you can check the following video on how to fix your microbiome without water only method as well since in todays day and age its not always realistic to not use sunscreen,moisturizer,makeup (thats easier but other two are unskippable). How to fix your skins microbiome kzbin.info/www/bejne/d52paZmhr5dqnqs This also explains about skin fasting, aka water only. Method. It explains why to add/remove something. kzbin.info/www/bejne/oYuydGmEatF1q7s 🔸𝙘𝙡𝙚𝙖𝙧 𝙖𝙘𝙣𝙚 𝙙𝙚𝙨𝙥𝙞𝙩𝙚 𝙢𝙤𝙙𝙚𝙧𝙣 𝙨𝙠𝙞𝙣𝙘𝙖𝙧𝙚: olena beleys acne tips kzbin.info/www/bejne/kJLbm2aonKxnh5Y 🔹olena beleys video 2 . kzbin.info/www/bejne/gGGUl3x7i9Gerbs 🔹olena/dr.dray explain similar approach of less products are better but they still help balance the skin care without completely eliminating products/using too mich products either.. So they just tell you what you need & what you dont to have clear skin. 🔹𝙢𝙚𝙨𝙨𝙖𝙜𝙚 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙘𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙩𝙤𝙧: 🔹im glad water only worked for you though & it takes courage to make this video. 🔹& tho i havent tried water only because i knew i used waterproof sunscreen which is compulsory, it wouldn't just come off with water & only oil cleansing would leave it too oily so i needed to come up with method i mentioned above. 🔹it was helpful to hear your journey to see if it d work for me or not & so on. Good luck with your life ahead.

Your skin was probably dry because you're over washing your skin and using moisturizers. When you moisturize your face, your body doesn't feel the need to moisturise your facial skin anymore.
