OMG SPOT TREATMENTS!! I knew I forgot something! I personally swear by pimple patches more than direct spot treatments. I find the less I try to ‘dry out’ a spot, the more difficult they are to deal with! I personally find a BHA deals with my spots and I will use a pimple patch just to keep it protected. Of course prescription acne medication is very different

I even wear them at work to cover the redness of a pimple as well!! AMAZING! I LOVE YOU JAMES!!! ❤️

@robisar014 жыл бұрын
Olivia Richards Sorry, I’m not James, but I can try to answer this! As James said in the video, if it works for you and your skin is happy with it, keep using it! However, because shea butter is so thick, it’s pretty likely to be comedogenic (something that clogs your pores) and could cause acne. So if you’re struggling with acne or oily skin, I definitely wouldn’t recommend it. But like I said before, listen to your skin! You are the expert on your body.
@robisar014 жыл бұрын
Oh also! I forgot to mention that shea butter can be really helpful when formulated within a facial moisturizer (bc it’s made by people who know what they’re doing and how much to include). Shea butter has soothing and anti-aging properties that can help smooth out the skin. It’s just that when you use pure shea butter, you may have problems with acne.

What initially drawn me to James’s channel, besides that colloidal oatmeal of a voice, was his love of toners! I’m always on the hunt for a good one, as this product is essential in my routine, on a par with moisturizers. A lot of people say it’s completely unnecessary, but unless I use it, it’s like everything else that comes afterwards in my routine stops working. I loved this video as I think it emphasized the fact that there are no one-size-fits-all magic solutions in skincare and that all we can do is try to be informed and figure out what your skin enjoys. And if that sheet mask makes you feel pampered or if that spray of mist makes you feel fancy, go for it! As much as the whole skincare world seems superficial and shallow to many people, there are some universal truths that can be extrapolated from our skincare routines, everyone is unique and everyone deserves care and pampering! Thanks for another fun video, James! 💞

I always used a lot of treatments, like daily BHA alongside other actives and my skin was perfectly fine as long as I took the pill. But after I stopped I broke out like crazy (which is perfectly normal for when you stop taking it) but I continued with my routine, not realising that my skin was struggling with all the treatments alongside the acne. Now I think I figured out what helps and my skin is finally getting better (as result of a combination of all the things I do to get better).

Is it the other way around if you sleep during the day and work during the night? I also have a hard time using thicker consistency moisturizers when I sleep because I have to layer it up with a LOT of sunscreen (I would rather DIE than wake up every 2hrs just to reapply sunscreen 😢).

JAMES, sheet masks are amazing for rosacea. I use them when I'm really red and its so bad my face is just burning up - the literal burning up that others can feel radiating off you. I use the goopiest one I can find, I prefer the hydrogel ones to the sheet, but I slap one on, and lay around watching youtube or something for an hour. Keep it hydrated, even if you have to spray water on it. They tend to come with so much goop, you can just keep spreading it on. Sheet masks can really help red, irritated, on fire skin. My rosacea gets so bad sometimes, I need an ice pack (I have fancy gel filled once you can put directly on your skin). These masks can are great at sucking the heat out of your face and actually making it cold.

Dark circles can also be from lack of iron, when I was little, I was very sick and had very little iron, so I had medicine that tasted like iron (like a fork basically) after I had enough iron my dark circles practically went away

Wonder if that's what's going on with me. The Ordinary caffeine solution did nothing for my eyes. I have dark circles and brittle nails that are starting to flatten, and I've got weird bruising on my leg. I'm trying to eat more iron rich food and vit c, but wondering if I should start taking an iron supplement too.

I'm still waiting for lips products recommendations - blams, mask, ect. It's so hard to understand lips ingredients and what it okay and what is a waste of money
@eduardaarrais4 жыл бұрын
I'm going to be honest with you. No balm or anything formulated for your lips has ever worked for me. They all dry my lips like crazy. What I use? I actually use a eye cream that is super moisturizing. And when I'm out of eye cream I just use my moisturizer and that's it. I don't understand lip balms or lip masks and they don't really work for me so. I'd love to see a video on it as well but ultimately I think that maybe a specific product just for your lips are useless.

Hi James, can you please do a rosacea specific video talking about your journey with that, from mild to flair ups. I'm a guy who recent got super into skincare thanks to your channel and guidance. I find that a lot of women in the skincare space touch on this issue (redness, rosacea) but then almost kind of, go on to talking about how as long as the skin is healthy, they will then use primers and concealers and setting powders on top, to hide that redness and uneven skin tone etc - as a guy i personally really don't want to be putting all that stuff on - even "undetectable makeup" is "detectable" - I am using a concotion of Paula's Choice and Ordinary products, trying to solve redness and mild rosacea on my cheeks - I have been asked for the last 10 years, if I have "caught the sun" or "if i have been hitting the tanning beds" - i am trying to use calming product lines from PC, as well as HA, Niacinamide, Azelaic, and really focusing on hydration - and while the texture of my skin feels silky and great with all those layers on, nothing seems to actually solve the redness issue, in fact using so many steps in a skincare routine sometimes even feels like it is making it worse! please help ;)

Thanks for touching products to use on specific age range. I have a pre-teen daughter and sometimes I think twice, thrice, again and again whether I'm letting her do the right thing, in the hopes that we could avoid her having breakouts once she enters her teens. Right now she's limited to cleansing and sunscreen (in the morning) then cleansing at night, eating right then vitamin supplements. Our bane is sleep time due to the pandemic. Anyway, I'm blabbing now. But thank you for all the tips!

It moisturizes my skin pretty well, I wake up with more even skin tone, silky skin and it calms down all the irritated places.
