how did you get rid of orange peel skin?
@etherealserenity604328 күн бұрын
@@seabreeze4559it depends how you got it. Your pore size is genetic but excess oil can make them look larger. Excess oil can be from having oily skin or like the commenters experience - possibly them damaging their barrier led to the skin producing an excess of oil in order to try recreate its barrier which made the pores larger. Age can sometimes cause it too. The goal is to balance oil production by removing the excess without stripping. So gentle foaming cleansers, ingredients which balance oil production (e.g., niacinamide, green tea) and keep skin hydrated to prevent the skin overproducing oil (good simple moisturiser that works for you)

I think a related topic would be our overall poor health in the modern age. Sugar, caffeine, processed foods and toxins affect our gut health and skin barrier. Makeup and skincare can help our outward appearance but true beauty should come from healthy skin, hair, nails, IMO. A secondary topic is insecurity. A woman who is secure in her beauty doesn't buy as much, the industry preys on insecurities to make a buck. A woman who takes care of herself through good food, sleep, exercise, AND is secure in her natural state doesn't need makeup to feel confident.

It's a great brand that doesn't get enough recognition. Please add Merle Norman to your history of makeup brands. Also, please try them . I worked for them for 10 years and grew up seeing my mother using their products. Makeup brands use to be passed down by our mothers and grandmothers, even Aunts, sometimes. Loyal customers, even generations, would use the same products keeping companies in business. Love the choices out there, but they can be overwhelming at times.

I bought blush for the first time in my life this weekend. Finding the right product and shade was so overwhelming i nearly gave up. But i did make a choice in the end, and I'm so pleased with my inexpensive purchase! I look forward to using this single product down to the pan.

Wow! This video is right on time. I love perfumes, and I have a large collection. I made a decision only to buy on my birthday and Christmas from now on.

I don't get the appeal of having 25 lip products and a 15 step skin care routine or keeping a drug store in my house. But then, I have never used Tik Tok or Instagram, so maybe that's why I don't care about weird trends and hoarding.

It’s the same with overconsumption of clothing. It’s both greedy & immature that women are behaving this way, like we never grew up & still want to play with dolls.

I loved Bonne Bell products and Yardley. I really, really miss Yardley. I wish they would bring it back. I was born in 1958 so I miss all the 70’s products. Coty, the groovy Maybeline eyeshadows, Yardley everything, Flame Glo lip gloss is square plastic, the original Herbal Essence shampoo smell…I could go on and on. The packaging was the best too. I just bummed myself out so I’m going to stop now. 😑😂

I remember Yardley having the best mascara in the 70's.

everyone has to buy everything someone else has to feel like they belong somewhere. sad but true, weve all done it. stanley mugs have become peoples whole personality too and kids having a sephora addiction is just sad

So true. I remember when we worried over whether something was the most becoming to us, and its popularity was irrelevant. I used nothing on my face (aside from makeup) but Johnson's Baby Cream and OJ's Beauty Lotion, both now discontinued, and my skin was breakout-free all through my teens. Thanks for another fun and informative video!

LOVE your content! I’ve never been a big shopper for make-up and clothes. Since I’ve had my colors done, I buy just a few products that really suit me and that I stick to. I also found a good daycream with sunscreen that works really well for me. My routine is simple, functional and effective ❤

I have been using Origins for 20 years. I love it and have tried others but they don’t give me the same joy.

That’s amazing, 20 years is a long time!

I miss seeing regular people vs. these inauthentic, carbon copies... people look like commercials. 🤦🏾♀️

As someone with eczema on their face it’s crazy that people’s skin care routines are that many steps. Mine is two steps and I use the same products till they don’t work anymore.

What do you like to use? I have eczema but on my hands
@Lifegoeson232-f3tАй бұрын
@ there is a brand called eczema honey that has a really good hand cream. Other than that I use shea butter when I have flares on my hands.

Very well said!! I didn’t even realize how often I partake in that fomo culture. I became very interested in 90s makeup a few years back so I bought all the staples and used them religiously and it was the first time I felt so pretty because the colors fit my facial features!! I stopped following the 2010s and 2020s trends because they didn’t suit me and im glad I did so. But of course some products are really tempting just because of the package. But I try my best to think about how it’ll actually look on ME opposed to how pretty it looks in my purse or vanity.

Yup every makeup product i own fits in a small makeup bag: one eyeshadow palette, 3 single shadows, 5 bullet lipsicks that I’m panning, 1 foundation, 1 concealer, 1 eye liner and mascara. I keep a capsule, minimalist yet beautiful wardrobe that I mostly thrifted too. Good for my wallet and simplicity

I wash my face with water and moisturize with avocado oil. If I need to remove makeup I use ponds.

I prefer the glamour era, i like the quality over buying just to have it🙈
