● Twitter - james_s_welsh
Today I want to share some of the biggest and most annoying mistakes I used to make in my skincare routine. And skincare mistakes to avoid that i used to do and that i see all over the internet! Mainly Tik Tok and instagram skincare routine videos / compilations!
This may not necessarily be mistakes, but they’re definitely things I did that really hindered my routine and stopped me from getting the most benefits from my products and routine.
We also take a look at how long your skincare products actually take to work and why you may feel that your skincare products have stopped working / no longer work!

Remember that skincare is extremely personal to everybody's skin. What works for me, may not work for you. But I hope my videos give you some good ideas for products, techniques and Ingredients to try.
Also, i'm obviously not a dermatologist or a doctor, so all opinions on products and anything else i'm presenting, is results and findings from my own experience and research.
And that's why i'm here, to share my research and my findings that go further than what is said on the bottle or google!
But, everything I present is always a discussion for you to join in with :)
If you have any serious skin concerns, please see a dermatologist / doctor.

[@wolfsbane1991]

#4 almost made me cry lol. I struggled SO LONG with red, flakey, itchy, dry skin around my nose (like you said!) and below my lip, and around my eyes. I spent SO much money switching between different eye creams and face creams to work out why. It didn't dawn on me until much later that my micellar water could be the culprit! They claim to be so gentle and good for sensitive skin. After a few weeks of not using any leave-on product save for moisturizer (I switched to cream cleansers), the problem started going away. It's obvious to me now (how on Earth can a leave-on cleanser be good for skin?). But I'm so glad you mentioned it as well! God I was in such agony over it, spent so much money switching products around, I was so frustrated.

[@alshirley3444]

I love how calming your and Robert's energy (energies?) are in your respective videos - you have a really soothing voice and I always unwind when watching your videos 😍 Plus I adore skincare and tend to share a lot of your videos with friends of mine who want to start caring for their skin as your videos are so educational and helpful 👌

[@jessihunt2954]

I think you are completely right and I know how hard it is to keep things simple when you are a skincare fanatic. It's nice to feel like you are treating your skin, but by doing too much you run the risk of actually spoiling it. You have to understand that even without any conscious effort to take care of your skin, your body will do it's best to make sure your skin is well. I think it's good to trust in your body and not overwhelm it with all these products we think will be a miracle. Thank you for all your videos James! You really are one of the most rational beauty youtubers. Videos like your teeth whitening and under eye dark circle videos attack the deeper issue and go beyond "use baking soda to white teeth" or "use this undereye cream". Thank you again for being realistic and never pushing a big company or brand's agenda onto your fans!

[@Alina-vt2hk]

That was some reali-TEA. I think brands a influencers have convinced us with the perfect routine we will have that glass skin gorgeous flawless face.... but sometimes that’s just not real. I have a rigorous and amazing skincare routine but due to my rosacea and discoloration (which I’ve had forever) I will never have that perfect bright even skin, and I need to accept that and love myself more

[@patriciazernone-wood5423]

I have switched up products so often only because I want to get a quick routine with the most benefits. I actually enjoy doing my face at night, so much so I think I'm switching purposefully just to have a reason to do more. Thankfully I haven't had a negative issue from always switching up. You have taught me alot so I'm careful about ingredients which possibly helps keep my skin clear. Thanks for all your research and videos!!😘

Totally agree with your last point about just not using a product and I would expand it to a whole step in a routine. As a teenager, my mom would nag me that I _need_ to wash my face morning and night but my dermatologist told me that would be too much for my skin and advised against cleansing more than once a day. I have fun with skincare but *my* needs come first so I try to avoid the temptation of trends or fun products.

I discovered that sometimes less is more. So if I've been out in the sun a lot, even with SPF it can be irritating. So I'd come home and do a layer of aloe gel then all these serums to evem out my skin tone. I realised all I really needed was to double cleanse, use GBR and the Mugwort cream and that worked wayyy better than the extensive routine

It is also really important, and I did not do it, to adjust your skincare according to the weather and the present needs of the skin, just learn to listen to it.

Realizing that I don't need a product anymore (or never needed it) was the only one that I've struggled with, but I think it's also the hardest to judge, particularly when you enjoy skincare.

[@tiffanysadlertlc]

I just started using acids and added several products from The Ordinary including the niacinamide serum and omg I don't even recognize my skin.

[@rissadawn2047]

tiffany sadler they are so good. I absolutely love the aha peel

[@rissadawn2047]

tiffany sadler also try the rose hip oil, its good for so many things I'm almost out of my hyaluronic acid serum from them too and need to order more. I want to slather it over my whole body

[@tiffanysadlertlc]

@@rissadawn2047 i most definitely will be getting those. Thank you so much! And yess i love the peel. My skin looks so good . I keep looking at it lol

[@UTYuetu]

Aye the niacinamide is working well for me.

[@jee492]

@@rissadawn2047 what does rosehip oil do?

[@Garbo46]

Concerning micellar water, I first heard Paula Begoun say you should rinse your face after using it so it is nice to hear you reconfirm that for me.

LOOOOOL!

[@AmylouiseMua]

Omg thank you! I don’t know anyone that actually removes the micella water, I break out if I leave it on my skin!

[@PrincetonGirl706]

[@becky6568]

Thanks for this skin care video too. I’m really paying more attention to my skin . It’s looking better ever since .

[@Sugarangel84]

i have a question for u! when u use a cleanser and apply products do u do it on ur beard and moustache area too?

[@raerae886]

I love every video u make your videos are very informative they're always very accurate and straight to the point and you've taught me that unnecessary skin products can cause unnecessary skin issues now I no longer have dry flaking around my nose and were laugh lines would b because I made my skin routine more simple and more for my face not more for what internet claims works

[@nicolemccord7885]

My school is closed so we're doing distance learning so we learn about skincare and do theory all day. And clearly i cant get enough!

[@olgadeptula4265]

Tbh ever since I've started to watch you and follow the advice my skin is so much better! These days your approach - really calm, informative, understanding sure stands out. I got sick and tired of yt videos where host was making me feel dumb coz way and language they spoke (coz it's a common knowledge! #disclaimer no it is not) whereas here I feel that level of respect towards audience is totally different 💙 thank you 💙

oh wait im confused? lol. was that shade to James or someone Else? if someone Else, Tell meeeeeee 😂

[@estokes42]

I use miceller water as a cleanser in the morning and then just put a sunscreen on top. I noticed that the skin on my nose was getting dry and flaky like you described and I had no idea I had to wash it off! Will be doing that from now on and hopefully things will improve!

[@rita.itsa.m]

It never made sense to me to not rinse micellar water, I just hate the way it feels? I guess it reminds me of how my fingers feel after using acetone (it's not that bad obviously tho 😂)

[@user-cf1od6pv2s]

R M is micellar water the same thing like toner?

[@rita.itsa.m]

@@user-cf1od6pv2s micellar water is like a 'cleansing step' that I personally prefer to use with a cotton pad before my actual cleanser. A toner is supposed to be used after cleansing and you don't need to rinse it! I don't use one right now but I think they're usually more aimed towards moisturization. So a toner is not something that you should use as a cleanser! I hope I explained myself well and that I didnt say anything incorrect 🙈💕

[@user-cf1od6pv2s]

R M okay thanks so much for your fast answer 🥰

[@rita.itsa.m]

@@user-cf1od6pv2s 💕💕😊

[@wolfsbane1991]

I wish I had your sense! I'm the idiot who just follows packaging instructions. It tells you you don't need to rinse off, so I didn't, and it ruined my skin! So red, flakey, dry and irritated. I'm glad I know better noww!

[@amelias642]

I literally don’t understand why people dislike videos like this. There’s no tea, no drama, he says he’s not a dermatologist etc, and he’s just trying to help people out. Can someone explain what the point of disliking the video is?? 😂

[@rioharisgopeng118]

He's not a dermatologist but atleast he does his research😍😍

[@MrEntourage101]

James can you please do a video with your opinion on so called harmful ingredients such as parabens and sulfates!

[@adafihj6439]

Nobody: James: I was young I was living my life

[@TessArchiveClearance]

What a brilliant video! I feel like we all need to watch this once every so often to keep these in mind I’m definitely one who will over react to a single product in an ingredient list!!

[@wylesiavm5118]

I was able to clear up my skin while in Quarantine. Went from acne ,hyperpigmentation , and texture. Now my skin is almost acne free, dark spots are fading and I haven’t had a cystic pimple in a while. After I watched you, Hyram, and lia yoo. Thank you. Ps. I use Cerave cleanser, paulas choice chemical exfoliator, innsfree eye cream, and rosehip seed oil to moisturize . I do mask too from innsfree and krave beauty sunscreen. ❤️❤️❤️ oh I also use A Korean hydrating toner and essence from neogen

[@michelledailey8505]

I started to get sucked in by the clean beauty movement & wsd using EWG regularly. Although, by trying to use "clean" Ingredients showed me that I am very sensitive to essential oils & fragrance. So, natural skincare actually bothered my skin more than conventional. I now check Ingredients before buying. So, I do still use these sites occasionally when I'm doing that.
