if you damaged your skin barrier, this video is for YOU 🫶

[@pranshisaxena6063]

I totally agree, I catch my skin barrier getting hurt pretty early so it is not as bad as it was yours but it is damaged, I have literally stopped using any chemical/physical exfoliations, Vitamin C and have never used Retinol so phew saved there. I would also advice anyone reading my comment is to also avoid salicylic acid based cleansers. They are good but when your skin barrier is damaged, they would contribute more. Also use Ceramide and Centella based creams, they are super soothing.

[@sakshimahawar1125]

Hi, I also have same problem. My skin barrier get damage by minimalist toner. How do you heal you skin? Can you name moisturizer that you use to repair your damage skin.

Yes! I used a dermaroller and every needle prick became inflamed 😭 not a good look for my job the next day 🤦‍♀️

Have you ever damaged your skin barrier?

[@Andy_HI1]

Once

[@latenightamira]

Yeah with benzoyl peroxide :( caused a scar for like a year

[@karatalksaboutstuff7333]

Got impatient and put the tretinoin on before my skin was bone dry. The paaaaaaaain 😭

[@shinnyheart1098]

G 😭😭😭 Right now

[@mi-ol7ql]

Still damaged 🙂... It's been an year🙂

[@espem88]

I did the same things you did. I applied a thin layer of grapeseed oil in place of my daytime moisturizer. Healed up so fast!

[@meetjain3859]

grapeseed oil of which brand ?

[@whyeeolivia]

i damaged it too with retinol, but i was exfoliating my skin and it looked worse with a few breakouts here and there, there were dry flaky red patches and angry looking skin throughout

[@self_lovecare]

Thank you 🙏

I did the exact same thing 😂 I've been using isotretinoin gel 5-6 times per week and never had a damages barrier. I couldn't believe that niacinamide did that to my skin!!

[@natalietopolski2017]

Got addicted to the drunk elephant retionol. Used it everyday. My moisture barrier took like a year to recover and EVERYTHING irritated my skin even though I simplified and moisturized all the time. Needless to say, I learned my lesson.

[@aissiaaa]

What did you use to allow your skin to recover? My skin hates pretty much every cleanser I’ve tried and breaks out in the smallest red spots. Even hydrating cleansers! I haven’t come across a good enough cleanser so my barrier remains damaged 🥲

[@lovelyxolys]

@@aissiaaa have you found anything yet😔 my skin barriers been damaged for like 7-8 days now. first few days i did toooo much to try n soothe it when i caught onto it. i made it worse. the last 3 days i only use water rinses in AM and PM.. ive used curology for MONTHSS like 11 months. i cant use it rn😔 my skin is also sensitive to new products so im scared to try anything hydrating to help it cuz it could worsen my situation . FACE KILLING ME FR

[@aissiaaa]

@@lovelyxolys unfortunately, I’m still experiencing it! I find that my skin is better when using less. So, try using less products with basic ingredients

[@donnabanks7656]

Thank you very much!

[@msk-qp6fn]

Yeah it happened or specifically worsened after using loreal revitalift retinol serum on my chest and neck. My chest is now fine but my neck still itches doesnt help that I have eczema and sweating irritates my skin and I sweat a lot. Cicaplast baume is great but I also like Bepanthen's ointment and cream.

[@CMC0725]

This is so helpful, I still can’t figure out how I damaged mine but I have the driest under eyes and it makes me look at least 10 years older plus it’s so tight and uncomfortable😣 def trying some of these products out!!!

[@antoss2013]

Hi, I have the same problem! I completely destroyed my under eyes after applying retinol 1.0% and a few other skincare products. It's been already two weeks now and I'm applying moisturizer (cicaplast and toleriane from La Roche Posay) every single day, several times a day, but I cannot see any improvement. I'm literally freaking out 😰 How's your skin now? I hope it has been restored and that you can give me some advice 🙏

[@andreagonzalez8036]

Did you fix your problem? I am going through the same situation. Any advice?

I damaged my skin barrier by using tea tree oil twice daily....ughhh acne went away with my protective layer 😵

[@livacore]

Back in 4th grade, i used tea tree face cream and serum twice a day and wondered why my skin had many breakouts😭

[@mkaa24]

I'm always damaging my skin barrier and suffering from irritation. To help, I just a gentle hydrating cleanser and a hydrating moisturiser.

[@madisonfeehan]

I damaged the skin barrier under my eyes when I found out (the painfully hard way) that I was allergic to the metallic paint on my eyelash curler. I've come a long way since then (9 months ago), but I'm still suffering from terrible dryness that seems to manifest itself anytime I wear makeup. Even with a 6 step hydrating moisturizing routine, I still have so many fine lines around my eyes and I'm not even 20 yet! Any recommendations for sensitive skin???

[@antoss2013]

OMG! I'm experiencing severe dryness under my eyes, too! How's your skin now? I hope it's fully recovered 🙏🙏

[@k0ko_2o2o-o4e]

idk why my skin is samaged, i never used any kind of those products and it is DEFINETLY not as bad as yours but its slightly red with small pimple like dots on it and im not sure if its damaged or not can someone tell me?

[@mrskanggg]

I accidentally used retinol with a recently bought moisturizer which i didn't study the ingredient carefully. Now i regretted switching products and buy just anything for the sake of cheaper price. Lesson learned 🙌💰

[@humble.pie.]

I used Aveeno Brightener cleanser and it DESTROYED my face. It was bleeding and I have huge set in wrinkles now 😢

[@Yomehlo]

I’m using salicylic acid cleanser twice a day to reduce acne n end up damaging my skin barrier tf WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO? Die?

[@KrispyAimAssist]

Did the same thing 💀 what helped me was just cutting my SA use down to twice a week and more only if I noticed a small breakout. The cleansing once a day with the moisturizer and spf combo was kinda clutch for my skin.

[@Anthony_T.V]

how long til you can start using that stuff and how will you know if your skin barrier is healed

[@ancigrujic3312]

My skin started flaking after i started using new products, thought it was just the winter drying it out and because of the flaking i wanted to exfoliate it, lucky i googled it first and just washed the area with lukewarm water and followed up with a moisturizer and vaseline

[@pisotkam1701]

I have that kind of problem on my skin rn

[@ThelmaAbel67]

That's y the always say give your skin a break, two days of just applying sunscreen is enough.

My skin is so really sensitive and super dry while I'll having a vitiligo skin issues that's why is not easy for me to try all of this...now ber months in my country I have more bumps and my skin is so rough in my right side on the face and the others side of my face is soft and oily.😥

[@solveig1365]

I was about to start with retinol. Would you say I shouldn't maybe? (I was going for the Paula's choice Retinol) I started skincare 2020. And I have the same routine since then. At first my skin got A LOT better but now I'm struggling with outbreaks again. My routine is pretty gentle. Pretty much just the ordinary hyaluronic acid and niacinamide and zinc. And CeraVe cleanser and moisturizer.

[@shreyamishra916]

U can start it slowly

[@MastooraBeauty]

Have a look at our retinyl it would be perfect for you.

[@Slay_145]

So I got recommended PanOxyl cleanser so I just bought the moisturizer to and the moisturizer within a day took out my skin barrier

[@jiophone2412]

Hey if we use a gentle cleanser , then is it enough to remove the multiple layers of sunscreen that we apply during the day?

[@uglyducklingskincare]

I prefer to cleanse twice, but you can do that with the same cleanser! Or just make sure you use it for 60 seconds to really lather and get everything off

[@yousufkhan3867]

Can we use 2% w/w glycolic acid facewash daily in damaged skin barrier?.....plz plz suggest me any face wash..

[@uglyducklingskincare]

Amazing!!

[@uglyducklingskincare]

How are you liking it?

[@papayafun7226]

Omg, I constantly get red scaly skin around my armpits. Even if I stop using deodorant. Now I just use water with alum stone (very diluted) and then put Aveno baby eczema cream or if necessary balm. I keep it at bay for most of the times, but if it starts acting up I have to take antihistamines to calm it down. I switched up all kinds other routines, laundry detergent, flowy clothes, etc….but I fear it is a mild form of eczema.

[@pniccia3211]

I damaged my skin barrier. I have two culprits. The new scinic first treatment essence since i just used this for 2 weeks or the benzoyl peroxide i put on my small acne in my chin.

Yup too much too soon. Destroyed my skin, thanks the Ordinary and K-beauty. So went from sensitive combination skin, to sensitive Rosacea fungal acne skin! Hard learned lesson: “you don’t need all that extra, and fancy crap that every skintuber tries to sell you, wether it’s a serum, toner or exfoliant”! Never had issues or acne prone skin. Now I have breakouts regularly and not just my face, but body too. If I could just turn back time,I’d stop buying more products everyone recommended on YouTune, and just stick to what I used before which was minimal: moisturizer, and face mist…
