Your skin is beautiful! You named a couple of the Drunk Elephant products, as Sunday Riley products:’😉

[@TheOnlineViolinTutor]

Just watched this and your day routine; both very helpful! I’m just wondering if you’re still using the same products 10/11months later, or if you are using anything else now that you prefer? Thanks 😊

[@petramckean5041]

I had dry skin too for years. I am 55 now and I don’t have dry skin any more after I started eating ethically raised animal fat like ghee, butter, and tallow. The change is amazing. At forty I had wonderful skin but after my mid-forties I think with pre-menopause, I started to see damage.

[@rhodesbirdy2793]

Yes! Mid forties is actually where the changes happen. I'm 48 and all of a sudden things look different. I just started eating a ton of butter, steak and eggs. Looking better and FEELING better.

[@latifathequeen2747]

i would love if you could share how you reaply sunscrean throughout the day without looking like a grease ball or messing with whatever makeup you have on

[@marykatherinemorris5048]

There are makeup powders with spf 50 in them so I personally put on my heavy duty liquid sunscreen in the morning before makeup, and then about 3 or 4 hours later I’ll touch up with the spf powder before I get out in the sun (bc a lot of my work is outside)

[@db8562]

So I use very light “makeup” I use a tinted sunscreen and also a cover girl Bb cream, and a little powder after that. When I re apply I use the Unseen sunscreen by supergoop and it doesn’t do a damn thing to the coverage. It’s the clearest most awesome sunscreen I’ve ever used and goes over my coverage flawlessly. Try it out!

[@artbyjaweria9575]

@@marykatherinemorris5048 powders never work the same as liquid sunscreens you can search up many videos testing sunscreens and there you'll find sunscreen in powder is of no use , when it doesn't even penetrates or stick to the layer of skin how can it protect skin , there are sunscreen sprays which are designed to reapply on makeup they are transparent with no white cast , it's good to use a powder with SPF but relying on it for sun protection is not a good idea.🥰❣️

Hi Lauren. Why did you add the Biosons 100% Squalene Oil at the end and not after the cleansers as you did with the Luna Oil and before the Lactid Acid Treatment?

[@i.g.p1288]

What’s your deciding factor in using Lactic Acid over Glycolic Acid? I saw Sunday Riley has both.

[@PraveenSrJ01]

I’m a brand new suscriber to your channel and I love ❤️ watching your content on tackling aging! Hard to believe you are 40 years old. I have to dye my hair once every 6 weeks.

[@MandyBrookeOfficial]

Gosh… I bought the Luna, Lactic Acid and CEO vit C serums from Sunday Riley and saw an immediate difference but they clogged my pores SO MUCH. I gave my skin a break, and only used one product at a time but each product clogged so badly. I had to stop using them on my face and now only use as a chest/neck treatment. I hope to find something with similar ingredients without an oil base because I saw a huge difference in my fine lines. 😭

[@lauren.o.connell]

Oh no! Try SR’s other CEO vitamin C serum and Dermalogica’s Phyto nature retinol serum. They don’t have an oil base. Ferver makes a lactic acid toner that might be better for you too.

[@MandyBrookeOfficial]

@@lauren.o.connell OH MY GOSH, THANK YOU! I can see a beautiful difference in my chest and neck - they’re amazing products. I can’t wait to try your recommendations! Thank you!!!

[@josephinevera9966]

You have amazing skin. If you don’t mind me asking why don’t you use just straight up tretinoin? It’s ALOT more effective then retinal since the skin doesn’t have to convert it to retin A.

[@baharam98]

Hi, great tips and products. Do you use all these on top of one another everynite after skin gets used to it?

You have nice skin. You are not aging backwards and you are still young it’s all relative. I thought like you when I was 40 but we can not escape the structural changes to the face that occur without surgical intervention. I do believe we can keep the skin very nice well into our 40’s I don’t know beyond that. Use of sunscreen and retinoids.

[@lauren.o.connell]

It’s about aging well and in doing so, I feel younger in all areas of my life- mind, body, and soul

[@bondoneill9606]

I agree 40 is still very young, It’s when menopause hits and in the 50s we really start to age. Botox may slow it down a bit. Nobody can age backwards. Madonna has tried 😂 Lovely videos. Keep up the great work. We must accept nature, aging is a privilege denied to many.

Is there anything just as good as Sunday Riley and Drunk Elephant products that are cheaper ? It's so discouraging when you really want to take care of your skin and get rid of lines you are starting to get but can't afford it.

[@ashleybullard1285]

@@lauren.o.connell oh thank you so much! I just found you and love all your advice! I'm just starting to notice all the changes in my skin since I turned 40 and get really discouraged sometimes. It just feels like there is nothing I can do. And when I see someone saying this product or this treatment or tool is amazing there is always someone else that says don't do that because it makes your skin worse. I never know who to believe. Anyway that you again for your videos they are very uplifting!

Hi! I have been on. KZbin forever and don't know how I just discovered you. I am binging on your videos! You are so beautiful and I love how research oriented you are. I am 50 and have a similar experience to you as far as taking really good care of my skin. I struggle with Retinol/Retin A type products. I feel like (in spite of reading otherwise) that it needs to tear up my skin to be effective. I would LOVE to use the Sunday Riley product you discuss. Do you think this would be as effective to someone my age as it is to you. I guess I am needing confirmation that it really can work as well without destroying my skin, and making me look like a dry flakey mess lol. Thank you for everything! I shall continue the my Lauren O'Connell marathon now.

[@creativesolutionstoart]

Great video! I love how you brought us with you through your skin care routine :-) I was just curious, from a bio engineering point of you, why retinol or retinoic acid is preferred as an ingredient instead of straight vitamin A? I know there’s a conversion process involved, and that vitamin a doesn’t always fully convert in the body.… But I’ve also had some issues with some of the research behind retinol’s. So I was wondering what your take on it was? What do you think about using vitamin A Oil as an alternative to retinol serum?

[@SueRosalie]

the only product proven to work for anti ageing effects is retinoic acid, aka tretinoin

[@dugnetta]

These are all so expensive and good skincare cost good money but could you make a video of must have products, similar to the ones that you are using but maybe budget friendly, please? 🥹🩷🥺

[@lauren.o.connell]

[@justStardust940]

so you have biomedical engineering and nursing background. What is the need to double cleanse with a traditional cleanser if the oil cleanser emulsifies when you add water to it? i understand if you were putting a pure oil and then washing the oil off with a traditional cleanser. but oil cleansers emulsify, making that unnecessary, right?

Not intending to be bitchy..this is first video..she seems nice person and very good intentions. But I've never understood why people use sooo many products. I mean your skin can only take in so much. Ps personally I tried botox 3 times and I felt like it wore off quick and didn't do much. I tend to be anxious at times and feel a little bit of regular meditation did way more for me. Since then I've just concentrated on the basics as much as I can. Food, mind, exercise, etc..with very simple skin care. Different strokes for different folks ,(hope that's the right old saying haha,).

The only product on my routine is sun block 🧴 that’s always going to be almost 30 dollars if you want something that’s good and does not leave a white cast. I’m going to test the sunblock from Trader Joe’s that’s just 8 dollars, so hopefully that’s a good one. Seriously cheeses this products are like 150 for a bottle.
