Roasting Skincare I Used To Love! 😭😂 LUSH, COSRX, Kiehl’s

[@RomanCainin]

3 years ago, I used to wash my face with a drying face wash TWICE, scrub my skin with a face brush, apply a drying mud mask, steam my skin for 30 mins, then applied lemon juice, more steaming, and then end it with applying 3 ice cubes until my “pores closed” 😂 Looking back I can’t believe the torture I put my skin through

[@sirtsupirtsu]

I did similar thing. I was adult, 30+ but had pimples all the time and greasy skin. I did not know about youtube skin care videos. I used to visit youtube only to listen music. But with my own head, I thought, it must be good to get rid of all the greasiness and do clay masks daily and scrub with hot towel, with cleansing brush, steam, apple cider vingear as toner lol. Yes, I did it daily. And I did not use any moisturizer! I was trying to dry my skin so badly out of all the oils ad gunk in pores. And I made it only worse. Then I had a revelation moment suddenly, when I found some skincare videos on youtube and i was like ohhhh, so you need to moisturize as well, even if you have oily skin. Since then, my skin has been amazing. It looks luminous. So nice and even and plump. :)

[@physicianskitchen]

Omg same. Thanks to darn pandemic that gave some free time to educate myself on skincare and stop torturing my face

[@RomanCainin]

@@sirtsupirtsu I used an Apple Cider Vinegar toner as well 😂 I only stopped doing all this when one day I realized that my skin felt burnt. After that, I bought the Wishful chemical exfoliant scrub + The Ordinary 1% retinol. I used the scrub and then applied 1% retinol on top (like a lot of it. Not 3 drops as required) and my life was a mess for a month 😂

[@RomanCainin]

@@physicianskitchen YES. The pandemic gave me time to research each ingredient and watch thousands of skincare influencers videos. Now I finally know how to take care of my skin.

[@lenaboyer6981]

I think my skin would look like cellophane if I did that 💀😂

Sometimes the old videos come up in my feed and I like to watch them and chuckle 😂 There has definitely been progression and growth.

[@rissa_leanne]

I so freaking appreciate how you own up to changing your mind as you learn the products better. It makes you more trustworthy 🖤 Also, after seeing a Cosrx product you don’t like (insert gasp here), I’d love to see a ranking of their products like you did with Glow Recipe.

[@brittneyambruster]

When I started breaking out as a teen, my mom took me to lush. Why? I have no idea. But they recommend the ocean salt scrub twice daily for my face. It has literal shards of salt. And follow up with the vanish cream. When I tell you my face was raw, red, and was stinging omg. It was horrific

[@traceywilson3077]

Oh gods, when I couldn't get my normal exfoliator Lush recommended that scrub to me too. It cut my face to shreds, it had HUGE slivers of salt in it which were super sharp.

[@kyleeissomajestic]

@@traceywilson3077 they need to stick to body care honestly 😭

[@p.k.7752]

omg. I have to say first that I currently work there, but at least in my shop we would never. 😮 A salt scrub on broken out skin? I can't. Scrubbing twice a day??? Holy crap, no matter the skin condition. I do see how that would put people off.

[@NicoG6]

I do use the Centella Blemish Cream but as a after shave cream. I always get irritated skin and razor bumps on my neck after shaving and this definetly helps.

[@bobbibuttons8730]

I had a good giggle at some of your comments. I’m almost 64 and we didn’t have a huge amount of products in the early 70s, especially those that were affordable to a young teen. My cleanser was Anne French Cleansing Milk, even yet I can remember the smell lol. My toner was Witch Hazel as my mum said it was good for me. Moisturiser was non existent lol until I got Astral cream. There was another which I can’t remember but it was in a purple pot. That comprised my skincare for years. 😂

[@littleboots9800]

Oh my word you take me back! Anne French in the pointy blue and white bottle on a cotton pad was my cleanser too! Also witch hazel toners afterwards and Astral as advertised by Joanna Lumley! She actually swore by washing with mild soap and water and Astral, it did alright for her tbh. This routine was also reccomended to me by my mum and I stuck to it until discovering clearasil. Tbh it was probably better than clearasils astringent washes and pads and oil free moisturisers. My mum looks great on it at 77! Oh and Oil of Ulay as it was before changing to Olay. Things have moved on!

[@erobin93]

I love the Lush bath bombs and their body conditioner bars, but I don’t use much else from them these days. In fact, I used one of their fresh masks that had a bunch of fruit in it, and I ended up getting a mild rash from the fruit juice 🙃

[@blaah9999]

Their shampoo bars make my scalp psoriasis go bananas.

[@Style_224]

I honestly never use their products except their honey bar soap and I'm disappointed that they got rid of their honey cleansing bar in my local lush store honestly there is nothing good that they have except that bar soap for the body

[@leahdickenson9864]

The centella blemish cream is a really good overnight spot treatment. Using your little finger put a dab on and let it dry while you sleep. Yes, you have to make sure you cleanse it off, but I like that it gets rid of the pimple without leaving a dry patch - which is what other spot treatments tend to do.

[@khadijamansuri6797]

i similarly use this, and it does help, a little goes a long way

[@asteforce]

YES

[@anti8545]

I absolutely LOVE Corsrx, my heart totally dropped when I saw them in the title. I've never tried their centella cream, but I did buy the Madagascar centella serum from skin1004 that you recommended and I am obsessed with it!

[@gabrielaarevalo6949]

Honestly if u get blemishes more than pimples is a great addition, is the only thing that works on my me as a spot treatment . I do wait for it to like dry a bit cause of how thick it can be. But it works

[@mollyapteros]

The whole madagascar line from skin1004 is lovely in my experience. I've used the cosrx cream and I'd give the same comments as the video. It does absolutely nothing for me.

[@selene3951]

Omg Lush is also what got me started on an amateur skincare journey when I started getting cystic acne in early university! Somehow their fresh face masks were able to eliminate it at the time and to this day I still use their Tea Tree Water 🤣 it’s the only thing I buy though from them and I’ve learned so much over the years

[@SK-ln6xt]

I actually love the cosrx centella cream. I've had a sudden breakout of acne (no history previously) and it's the only product to have calmed the spots down! Ive tried antibiotics and adapalene and they didn't work. I agree with the whiteness but I'll forgive that because of the benefits!

[@Raaadishh]

The Centella blemish cream works wonders for me but James is spot on with the cons! 😆 My routine time is doubled when I use that product just to rub it in thoroughly LOL.

[@gabrielaarevalo6949]

It works wonders on mime too, it's been the only thing that works for me. I only use it at night and I do use it only on the spots . However it never drying down is like my only con

[@Dakyta252]

Weird I love the cream and think is very easy to apply I use it normally, like a little all over my face and it's very nice

[@CultsBCultin]

Love this - I even cringe at stuff I used like 2 years ago 😂. Our skin changes and our knowledge grows as well. There are even great products I had that just doesn’t work on me anymore. Gotta change it up sometimes! ❤

[@christiepaguirigan7391]

I used that Kiehl’s sunscreen 4 years ago but it made me ashy and super duper greasy and I hate it. But I had no choice but use it because it was the only sunscreen that doesn’t break me out nor sting my face like most non-Korean and non-Japanese sunscreens. Thank goodness I discovered you therefore I discovered Korean products! :) You’re the 1st skin care influencer/content creator/youtuber who taught me about skin care :)

[@angeladavies898]

I bought this sunscreen a few years ago as well, I thought it seemed quite good but then I discovered K beauty sunscreens and never looked back! BofJ sunscreen for the win! 😀

[@emilykatealice]

I absolutely love some of Kiehl's products. I likely could be getting similar products for cheaper, but their midnight recovery oil cleanser is so good and I love the scent.

[@tresapham6264]

I'm so happy you mentioned the ingredient Limonene. I was tested for chemical allergies and limonene and linalool are a couple of ingredients I'm very allergic to. For me to buy skincare and makeup, I need to do research before purchase anything.

[@trangluu8754]

I absolutely love the cosrx centella blemish cream! For sure a pm treatment. I only use on areas where im breaking out and i find this to be the only topical product (outside of prescription creams and retinol) that calms my breakouts! Never had an issue with washing the product off though...

[@frostie4228]

Omg that aloe Vera gel! 😭 it was the first product I bought you recommended and it did not work as a moisturizer at aaaall. But back then, I used to get my mustache waxed or threaded and it was sooo calming for that lmao. I still have it for burns when I mess up cooking 😂 what a hurried memory

[@daivabrazauskaiteeidukiene]

I have oily breakouts prone skin and dermatillomania (skin picking disorder) so my journey to skincare was a long and painful one. From searching products that would break me out less, to those controlling and healing damage and scarring after a skin picking session. LUSH was among the brands I tried out and the Tea Tree water was something that I enjoyed too, as well as their Amazon Primer facial oil, which, surprisingly, as oil that claimed to make your skin matte... actually did that. Quite sad that I cannot find it anywhere anymore... Felt so calming and soothing and would definately buy it now. The COSRX products are very new to me, but I am happy I came across them, their Acne patches were God send. While the Centella Blemish Cream I would not use on my face for the exact same reasons as you say, I use on my arms and forearms instead. That is area that I have started to pick quite a lot in the past years and it really really helped to control the breakouts, and to soothe and heal the skin if I would go on "my little adventures". One other product that I said I will never buy again was their AC Calming Foam Cleanser... What was that I do not know, but I have never experienced a cleanser that I would like to cleanse with another cleanser... to wash it off. It is thick, and it felt like the ingredients in it formed powder that would set in the skin like clay mask and rather than feeling refreshed I would feel like there is a thick 1 kg clay layer on my skin clogging me and not letting my skin to breathe. Don't know how this happened, but I actually threw it away with no remorse cause I could not even recommend it to anyone... 😬

[@sinsweetie]

Lush got me into skincare, and they are one of the few brands that my skin tolerates. I've used Phresh Pharmacy as my cleanser for years and I used enzymion as my moisturizer for as long, but recently switched to gorgeous because I'm in my 40s now and need a bit extra. I moved to an area that doesn't have a lush, tried to switch to more accessible brands, and my body freaked out and had to go back to lush. There are only a few items from a few brands I can add in that don't mess me up for a week. Glad to see some lush love.

[@deephantoms]

Honestly i just started using the lush solid serum bar and i love it its very hydrating and gentle. I also enjoy their maiz face and body scrub as its also super gentle and hydrating, and their vitamin c face wash pot

[@ejohnson3131]

Remember when we all had to have a Clarisonic? The cleaner your skin, the better. Even if it was all irritated!

[@kempmcarthur2318]

Absolutely made my afternoon! Love you and your content James!!! ❤

[@RS-xu6hd]

I think personally I've found the centella blemish cream is best used after you have used a pimple patch to take out all the gunk, then you dab it on overnight and it helps to soothe and heal the pimple faster. I just dab on a pea sized amount and haven't found any difficulty removing it when washing my face in the morning. But of course, it just depends on if you need it in your routine as it has quite a specific use

[@MISGummiBears]

Wow the tea tree water was my favorite prodect as an oil skin teen. And I still use a local drugstore aloe gel as moisturiser in the summer (but no alcohol, has glycerin and no oils/ perfumes, does have Syntetic dye as the last inci but still good for me. And worked even when my barrier was damaged.

[@mobyythicc]

The Innisfree volcanic clay toner was in my routine for years along with the rest of that volcanic clay line. It did actually quite well with my very very oily skin.

[@emiliabedelia5982]

I recently used the Innisfree volcanic toner 2x a day for a few weeks without realizing it was stripping my skin! It felt gentle to apply, but my skin became badly sensitized and I’m on a “bland” skin routine to recover. I couldn’t even use my regular moisturizer. I really liked using it before I realized what was happening!

[@Iron_Sea]

I remember lush tea tree water. As well as other stuff. Never again. But back then we really didn't have all the beautiful skincare products we have now, also we didn't have KZbin and skintellectual community to learn about how to take care of our skin.

[@deephantoms]

[@galacticjester6668]

I used the same two products from Lush when I was young! They weren't my first skincare product but were my first sort of higher end ones. They didn't work on my acne at all, and I ended up having to go to a dermatologist, but that went well for me with some oral medicine. The first over the counter product that I tried successfully was the Clean & Clear continuous control acne cleanser with 10% benzoyl peroxide. My skin back then had no response to salicylic acid, but benzoyl peroxide worked like a dream.

[@genevas]

I love their tea tree water too… it smells so amazing and refreshing. I loved putting it in the fridge and I still love it, cute little product

[@sixionzear6329]

I honestly love Lush but just their bath and moisturizers. Their Power conditioner did wonders for my partners hair. It was severely damaged because he never learned how to care for curls and would brush the HELL out of it. It’s the only conditioner we’ve found that brought back the curls instantly and 2 months later it’s growing back way way healthier.

[@kathleenuclear]

I still love the Tea Tree Water from Lush, but I definitely don't use it as my main toner. I love using it when my skin really needs a wakeup because the spray really helps. I also love their Greased Lightning gel that also has tea tree oil in it, but that's also a once in a while product because I find it's not as effective if it's used too often. Their haircare is absolutely my favorite though! And some of their bar soaps for shower time are lovely. The smell luring you in made me laugh because it's so true, Lush stores have an intoxicating scent. ALSO I haven't tried anything from COSRX aside from their spot stickers, but I swear by them. They are the only patch product that works on my skin, other brands don't even do anything.

[@taylorkailie]

I love Grease Lightening!! I have a lot to learn about skincare (that’s why I follow James) but I’ve been using it for years now and it’s one of the only products that has managed to help calm my breakouts// Every other product I’ve personally tried from Lush hasn’t done much for me so that’s the only one I buy from them anymore.

[@Y15Group07]

Haha I used to be obsessed with lush tea tree water in my high school days! I still purchase the nature Republic aloe for sunburn in Aus - but didn't know it was meant for a moisturiser

[@nikitas7661]

I still use the centella blemish cream. It works for me, in fact, I came across it through your channel. It does get messy when I go to sleep with the cream, but I solved the problem by using a pimple patch over it and that helps the cream stay in place. It dries up my pimple overnight. Not meant to apply it all over your face.

[@maggiemacaskill1037]

ty for reminding me about the cosrx blemish cream!! I think it's for eczema and psoriasis because of the zinc. It is a life saver and the relief is instant.

[@recommendationsfromrach]

Omg the lush and body shop tea tree stuff was so god damn good oh my teenage pimply skin. Memories!

[@BrieePaigeeMusic]

Anyone remember the Clarisonic phase??? OOOOF talk about over exfoliating 😭😭 “The brush cleans your pours” when in reality you were rubbing the shit out of your face, overcleaning & over exfoliating for the 2 minutes. I used to be OBSESSED thinking my skin was so smooth but in reality it was being damaged as hell!!

[@soupbowl2750]

With the spot treatment, I just apply a good amount and then put a bandaid over it at night. Then in the morning I just apply a toner pad over the spot and it wipes off super easy! I don't think they reformulated tho

[@blazelutari8675]

I used to love lush for similar reasons and looking back now as someone dxed with Rosacea, it's really unfortunate that they add so many perfumes and scents because that's 100% the part of their skincare stuff that was irritating my skin back then :( I have to be very cautious about any added fragrance, it's frustrating!

[@amaliaahmad283]

I have to agree with you on the cosrx blemish cream, bought it years ago. Had nooo idea how to use it i dont think ive finished it 😅

[@LaterTater8]

Thank you so much for the growth you’ve shown. I so appreciate that as an influencer you’re willing to admit your past mistakes show your learning journey. As someone new to skincare and beauty it’s really helpful for me. I used the reformulated Kiehls sunscreen. I didn’t think it was anything special. I’m not repurchasing because the price point is SO high when you can get better products for less.

[@khaser2]

The cosrx centella is so gd! I've been using it for the last 5 years on and off. I always go back to it because it's the only thing that removes redness n irritation of the skin. Use it as a spot treatment or apply a light layer on certain areas. U do not wear this like a normal moisturizer during day or night. But I do agree it's slightly odd to get off and can come off easily if u dont allow enough time to dry. I use it mostly on lazy days at home where I can keep it on my face all day.

[@lianna3814]

Oooh Lush tea tree water was what got me into skincare too!

Even though it's a brand from Finland, they ship internationally. Especially their moisturizing toner (the one in the pink bottle called Hellä) is amazing and has that "fat water" texture!

[@everogersdownunder1242]

[@anankeeknana8298]

Honestly I wanted to be a customer at Lush so bad when I was in University, but they were kinda overpriced but more over I could not stand the smell gave me an instant headache. So I would usually just run in get my favorite vanillary parfume stick and run out.

[@jesse1001]

There’s a product that I’m still using and still loving that’s giving me some grief. I’m almost 100% sure that Tatcha’s dewy cream is giving me some little pustules here and there but I can’t stop using it because of the other benefits. It’s replaced almost all of my night-time routine. My skin is so even toned, glowy and silky! It plumps out every little fine line I have and completely solved any dry or flaky patches. I’m definitely willing to just pop a pimple patch over any blemishes I get from it because the rest of the results are just so good!

I started using the COSRX centrally blemish cream after my skin decided to blow up over the holidays. As someone with dry skin, I do find the cream dries down in my blemishes (also not sure if I have a newer formula tho). I gotta say I do agree with the cons re: applying all over tho.. and it does take a bit of effort to remove but I can usually just gently wipe it off with water💦

[@Blue_Star_Child]

But I’ve been trying to find a dupe bc the amount you get is so small bc it’s technically a spot treatment and it leaves that awful white cast so I can’t use it during the day. Would love to hear if you know of any dupes or similar moisturizers ❤

I only go to Lush for body care stuff and bath bombs nowadays (I cannot recommend the sticky sates shower gel enough. It smells EXACTLY like sticky toffee pudding.). I don't mind their haircare and skincare items but there's just better stuff out there (though I will say, most of their shampoo bars contain SLS as the primary ingredient which makes them pretty drying, sure, but if you need a good clarifying shampoo, look no further.)

[@anjinsan87]

I had almost the same experience with the Kiehls sunscreen. The only impressively lightweight one I could find at that time was one from Biotherm Homme, I still think it's really good, but way too expensive and that's why I was searching for a cheaper alternative. The Kiehl's one was highly recommended to me by the store clerk and was not terrible, but not as lightweight as it could be. I'm so happy now that I found the Isntree one! In HK I just bought it on Yesstyle for 8 USD, mind-blowing!

In the early days of youtube I was instructed by someone or other to use pepto bismol on my face to stop my oily skin ruining my make up. I persisted with that madness for two months until a friend took me aside and correctly told me I looked like I was wearing a death mask

The story I got was milk of magnesia, not Pepto. They’re both good stomach medications (but bad for skin!). It’s really interesting how the beauty/skincare rumor mill spreads this kind of misinformation.

Oh my gosh, I had completely forgotten that I tried the same with milk of magnesia 😦 I must have only done it a couple times before giving it up

I dunno centella blemish cream really helps me when my skin is extra angry. Literally the only product that saves me, for sure works as spot treatment, much nicer to use than cicaplast by la roshe possay(this one sometimes I use as slugging cream)

I used to use this facial scrub from Lush called Ocean Salt and it literally has massive pieces of really coarse seasalt in it and that shit hurt sm 😵

Plz tell me why that image of the charcoal face soap looked like an old pack of birth control from the 90's/early 00's 😆

Omg LUSH, I brought just before Christmas their limited edition bath gel, thinking it was bath bubbles with mica, well brought it for the sparkels 😅 I have very sensitive skin, like even some products to was from the Skin ireitates my skin, and Skin's products are mostly for the sensitive skin. Anyways, somehow nothing that I have from Lush irritates my skin. Maybe it's because they use more natural ingredients 🤔

Actually i start to use the Cosrx centella blemish cream because i saw it in one of your videos 😊I couldn't find it at that time but after long time they made it again available. Since then i fell in love with it because for me works very well when my skin is irritated or i have some big inflammated under skin pimple. I use it after moisturizer and only on night skincare routine. I never had any issues in the morning with wash it off..I use it on summer when my skin is more oily and also in winter when i have pretty dry skin and always help me out 🤷🏻‍♀️ Always i wake up with zero irritated skin and the inflammation and redness of the pimple are always less.😊Thank you for sharing so much with us. Thanks to you i create a real skincare routine and i learnt a lot about how works my skin and discovered lots of products that changed my skin ❤️ Love and much health 🐱💜🐶
