MY SKINCARE ROUTINE (AT 43) | RUTH CRILLY

[@Laura-g1c1l]

I almost fell off my chair......do my ears/eyes deceive me? Am influencer who is not trying to get me to buy 100's of dollars (or pounds) worth of products. Who loves a zillion different items and says to all of them "this is the best". Thank you Ruth, women and especially young women have to hear this more often--that you don't have to pay so much for products to get the same result. Best thing--stay out of the sun-I have basked in the sun as many times as a nun has gone into a bar. Then make sure you clean your skin and moisturize. Eat well , enjoy life as best you can. I am 62 and truly have hardly any lines. Only found Retinol in my 30's also. Didn't moisturize much till I was in my late 40's===so it is never too late:)

[@asiff098]

I love that you put your age in the title! I'm 43 too, clicked right away! Thanks Ruth!

[@RuthCrilly]

Ah good! I was deliberating but to be honest I quite like watching beauty content from people of a similar age. So thought it might be a good signpost!

[@anitaberg9838]

Yeah it's just helpful and good to know❤thank you

[@sarahgee6690]

I think keeping our skin care as simple as possible is such a great tip. I just turned 48 and taking care of my skin is and always has been a top priority. And it doesn't have to be an extreme 17 step routine. Thanks for sharing what works for you. ❤

[@wicklawalker9495]

Fair play for not succumbing to the cult of Botox and fillers . So many women will look back in regret in years to come.

[@stevdaughtr6098]

I don’t judge if somebody wants to do it they can the only time they have huge regrets if they try to keep it a certain way and they go over and over. I know a few people that do and they only go once a yr or 2/they look great.. I don’t really see it as a cult

[@caryoulwhitty]

Have you seen her bone structure? She will never need botox

[@Randilynn66]

I'm 57, I have very light natural botox. I won't regret it ever.

[@clairesingleton7399]

Yes, I’m 46, I’d rather be natural without Botox. Each to their own though. I’ve always wondered about Botox on the forehead. So many people have Botox and you can tell. Some people have just a little and you can’t tell as much. ❤❤❤xx

[@stevdaughtr6098]

@ practitioner is the key I’ve never been able to tell.. didn’t need it myself but definitely considering it 50 is a whole different game.. things change at that point even with it really nice skin care routine. It’s not everything although I am researching some of the other options.

[@marcevella9675]

Thanks Ruth, I’m 45 and find skincare overwhelming! This is really helpful ❤

[@medik8]

Thank you for the feature Ruth! Retinal is such a game changer in the skincare world. We now go up to to strength 24 by the way! 💎

[@brirose230]

You look amazing and thank you for sharing that you haven’t had anything done to your face - ageing naturally is beautiful! And you definitely don’t need any of that fake stuff 💖

[@christinehalliday2817]

Really love your no nonsense approach,just straight to the point and uncomplicated, brilliant! Xx

[@nka30]

I’ve been following your skincare journey since the beginning and have learnt so much. We are the same age, and I still follow your basic principles of skincare ❤

[@RuthCrilly]

Thank you for sticking around! x

I'll be 40 in January and this year is the year of my best skin so far. Going for a simple routine worked best for my skin (I have rosacea, that's currently under control). Skin barrier is happy, skin is even, glowy, clear and someone recently thought I was younger than 30 lol. My current skincare (for inspo) is - Morning: splash of water, pat dry, vitain C (The inkey List has a great gentle one with 15% vit C that's NOT ascorbic acid + EGF, or Numbuzin no 5 serum), The Inkey List azelaic acid, Cerave or any moisturizer + SPF - currently Beauty of Joseon, but for winter my fave is Eucerin mineral one). Evening - double cleanse with Bioderma micellar oil /water or The Inkey List balm, La Roche posay Toleriane cleanser, pat dry and wait about 20 mins, Isntree Hyper retinol EX (just testing this one out but it has retinol, bakuchiol, peptides, niacinamide, ceramides and cica which makes it a great all rounder), Geek & Gorgeous power peptides and moisturizer (cerave, the inkey list, ceramedx, SVR - moisturizer without actives!). I exfoliate once a week with a pro product that contains mandelic, azelaic and lactobionic acids followed by a clay mask and hydrating sheet mask :)

[@Dziendobry2023]

What’s the exfoliating product you use once a week?

[@KasiaZ]

@@Dziendobry2023 Neutrea Biotech summer peel (available in PL as it's a Polish brand).

[@zenabraithwaite1934]

Interesting. I'm in my late 50's. I didn't have a line on my face until 48/49( pre menopause) and I honestly used nothing special because I couldn't afford it. Post menopause I use Cerave cream to foam cleanser, I love ROC vit c toner ( one of my splurges) but you only use a tiny amount on a cotton round. I use Skin1004 Centella eye cream morning and night. I use a fairly simple moisturizer at night like Cerave, or ELF holy hydration, on a morning I use Sali Hughes Vit C serum and then Skin 1004 Centella spf 50 ( no moisturizer as I have combination skin unless it's super cold). That's it. I've tried retinols on and off but still not convinced they are worth the money and extra step though my skin really likes Vit C.

[@s_shaleh]

My experience with retinoids is similar to Ruth's. It really changed the skincare game for me. I've had good skin throughout my adulthood, so I too was skeptical that it would do anything for my skin beyond what any of my other skincare products could do. But I was genuinely surprised that it did make a noticeable difference.

[@brirose230]

PS. Would love to know what makeup you’re wearing in this video - perhaps something for another video?

[@Yasminamonster]

I’ve been following you from the beginning, Ruth! Love your modeling and your reviews of beauty products and blog (and vlog). I hope Mr. Bear is well 💛🤍

[@micheleb.7573]

Great video! How about a makeup round up tutorial!

[@julesscarborough2619]

Ruth!! I just finished reading/listening to your book and I LOVED it. Really funny, really engaging, and you stayed true to you. Legend! You should be very proud and I hope it smashes sales 😍😍😍 PS can’t wait for next instalment xx

[@pheart2381]

A seasonal update is a great idea.

[@RuthCrilly]

I used to do them but not enough changed each time!!

[@inthechairwithcloochy8102]

LOVED this video!!! Please tell Beauty Pie to ship to Ireland, super not fair that we are not able to get it here, SO FRUSTRATING!!! You look gorge by the way!!!

[@2gooddrifters]

Ireland is I the EU and thanks to brexit there are difficulties shipping.

[@RuthCrilly]

Thank you! Yes, is a proper drag re shipping from BP!

[@brirose230]

I wish they would ship to Australia too!

[@danieller9778]

Such a informative video ❤ may I ask, Which exfoliant do you use in the morning? The little pink bottle?

[@pablogaertner5291]

I remember the days of Liquid Gold!!

[@clairesingleton7399]

Hi hun. I’ve just come across your channel. I’m 46 and like you have normal skin - occasionally combination. Thank you ☺️ for sharing xxx

[@sarahbee27]

I love the oat cleanser, I rebought it the other day and it has little scrubs bits in, I don’t remember it been like that before, they massaged down mind.

[@karenbyrne7597]

I had to throw inky balm away just because I didn’t have strength to squeeze any out wish they did one in a tub. I’m using Clinique cleansing balm but would like a cheaper one for sensitive skin. Any recommendations

[@ReneeC43]

Elf has a good one! :)

[@janemasini356]

You look like your in your 20,s now❤ U look AMAZING ❤

[@RuthCrilly]

Ah thank you. Inside I feel ninety but good to know. LOL

[@hipretty]

Good to see you Ruth! 💗🙏🌺

[@osiria75]

I love my led mask. I prefer the Nooance one, compare to the current body one.

[@claudiaglows]

loved this and love your top.

[@RuthCrilly]

Thank you!

[@deenab6476]

Hi Ruth, my routine is the same as yours….except I make my own vitamin C serum….its so cheap to make….and i use castor oil after my retinol .great info in your video . Thanks.❤

[@KasiaZ]

What's your current fave lip care?

[@rachelfairs8068]

This was really interesting thank you I'm 47 and my skins in pretty good condition, it is dry I tend to use hydraulic acid and vitamin c and really moisturising er moisturiser haha xx I've never tried retinoids but I would like to my skin can be a little sensitive so I get a bit scared to try xxxx

[@analuciasilva8810]

I love your videos, but i want ask you why you don't tried k-beauty (korean) skincare product, yet?

[@maritkristianehauganwick7721]

Thank you 🤗

[@RuthCrilly]

Welcome x

[@rachelprice8769]

Ooooo do you prefer the LED mask to the Ziip Halo? X

[@RuthCrilly]

Do you know....I actually use the mask more than the ZIIP but I have to get back on it with the ZIIP because it's SO brilliant! Depends what you want. Lifting or general tone and texture of the skin...

[@emiliebova]

I am 71 and wish I was 43 again!😂😂😂

[@Ladynipchick2]

Ruth, am I right in thinking you've done home have held micro current devices before now? - or am I thinking of someone else? 🤔

[@JasminMiettunen]

She mentioned ZIIP in the comments!

[@olga_b344]

Curious if you ever tried Tretinoin at all? And if so why you went back to Retinal?

[@RuthCrilly]

Yes, that's what's in the Skin and Me and the And Begin creams. Did years on it! Kind of wanted to see what the Medik8 20 was like. Strength-wise. So that's what I'm currently on.

[@olga_b344]

@@RuthCrilly thanks for your reply. I’ve been watching you for years. So do u think the Medikal 0.20 retinal is better than Tret? Xx

[@mrsmongooseable]

Don’t you just wash your face in the shower in a morning? Just wondered x

[@RuthCrilly]

I very rarely shower first thing because of the way my day tends to run. So I keep my face skincare routine separate I suppose! I do wash it in the shower though, yes but it was all getting too complicated tbh.

[@mrsmongooseable]

@@RuthCrilly ah I see. Thanks for replying! ❤️

Please Please Please throw away that Paula’s Choice vit c serum! 😮 It’s oxidised and it’s now causing damage too your skin.

[@sandimcdougall2909]

I noticed that too.

[@RuthCrilly]

Yeah sorry, I noticed that when I watched the video back! Bloody hell!

[@maami8232]

Ruth, nie obraź sie ale jesteś za szczupła. Nie wygląda to dobrze. Kobieta po 40 mocno wychudzona z twarzy wygląda na dużo starszą, jędrność skóry się zmniejsza.

[@Ladynipchick2]

Wait. If the LED mask has made a lot of difference to your skin, then doesn't that rather negate everything else that you're doing? 🤓

[@RuthCrilly]

I'd say it's more of a group effort though isn't it? I mean I wouldn't replace my SPF with the mask, for example! Or my moisturiser... x

Paula’s choice is shocking skincare! Every time I use anything of there’s my skin breaks out in red lumps. Even their body products.

[@emmaturnstylish]

How do you know if it’s oxidised?

[@JasminMiettunen]

⁠@@emmaturnstylish vitamin C changes color when it oxidises and it gets less effective. It shouldn’t be damaging, it just won’t work like it should. Light yellow or orange is okay, but if it gets dark orange or brown it’s time to throw it away.

[@yukiaditya7352]

@@emmaturnstylishyou can tell by the colour. Fresh vitamin C serum usually is much clearer than that.
