Mario Badescu makes non-alcohol toners and other AMAZING product, and they do not test on animals!!
I feel like a serum might penetrate my skin and pores and not just sit on top of my skin and really enhance the free radicals so I look younger and more radiant> I have no idea LOL thats just my hope for afinding a great mosturizing primer,
the reason many serums don’t have spf in them is because many people use them as an intensive added step and use it in combination with their normal moisturiser
sorry if you already know that
I agree with you about wearing the first product at night, meaning the one you talked about first. Rosehip oil is great too! Some people can handle Deor products.
Natio is great its natural but expense.
personally since i cant spend alot of money use spectro derm hydro care I like it and its cheap so if u ever need a emergency hydrator i think this one is pretty good
A great tip!…pure jojoba oil can do very similar things in comparison to argan oil. It also has been said to reduce sebum production. You can get it at natural food stores or GMC. You can use it alone or add a few drops to your favorite moisturizer daily. I love Oil of Olay Sensitive skin beauty fluid….its right between a serum and a cream. It does have alcohol in it but when I add Jojoba oil it works great!
Oh yeah, you’re soooo right about ALCHOL!! NO, NO, NO people,! Alchol causes major free radical damage to the skin and messes w/ the skins natural PH!! YOU R RIGHT!! Do your homework before shopping for skin care! Another tip. MOST essential oils(aka Laverder,etc.)can cause cell degeneration and death. Be careful w/ those ingredients as well!!
Hey girl! Great vid!! I just wanted to let you know that Philosophy makes When Hope is not Enough w/ SPF(UVA AND UVB) it’s call When Hope Is Not Enough AGE DEFENSE 20. I personally DON’T recommend this one because of the jar packaging. Jars can’t keep all the antioxidents and skin communicating ingredients stable. Use the one you have and save your $ and of course ALWAYS USE a UVA/UVB SPF!!!
Woah 30 dollars for just 2 ounces. Just so you know jojaba oil is the exact same thing. Its also helps reduce sebum profuction because it imitates the skin What’s better is that Jojobaisn’t astually an oil and is 100% non comedogenic. I get it froma really great website that doesn’t test on animals. =)
btw LUSH SUCKS
I didn’t get one good review from the book written by the Paula choice creator.
Its super fragranced which is bad for the skin. there shampoos r good though
It’s both! They only sell their brand in their places. They’re against animal testing….It’s a good english brand. You should find a Body shop near you, they’re everywhere or maybe on the internet. If you’re looking for something great you should try from them the serum vitamin C and the vitamin E moisturizer.
Yeah that type of alcohol is fine. Don’t temp me! I’m trying to find cheaper skin products! the whole world want me to try Lush, LOL
not too sure.. maybe its a cheap filler? lol.. the toner i use is tea tree water, grapefruit juice, and juniper berry. It’s fantastic and I love it. My moisturizer is papaya, aloe vera, lemon, cocoa butter, wheatgerm, lime.. and cetearyl alcohol.. (but thats different).. im tellin ya! its fantastic stuff!
I love the video! I was wondering if you had any recommendations for redness reducing products? I am really pale and my skin is usually red and pink from acne fighting skin cleansers. From what you have described, I have the same skin type as you. Mostly oily with dry patches around my mouth. Can you recommend any acne fighting creams/cleansers and some redness reducing ones>
the the no alcohol is definitely nice
I really don’t understand why companies do that.
well.. since i am a bit biased.. everything is 100% vegetarian, 100% handmade and 100% uber fresh. So for what it is.. I think the price is reasonable. I’ve been using it for about 7 years now and I totally notice a difference in my skin compared to other products I’ve used. I have oily skin and living in a high humidity area doesnt help much
other products either burn my skin or make it more oily. In all the skin care at Lush, no alcohol is used (gotta love that).
Everyone keeps talking about Lush! lol. I have one pretty close tome, but to be honest, the prices turned me off. I was just shocked. I’ve also head that it’s nothing special from some people. BUt on the other hand, some people say that about Bliss, but Bliss is SO NICE, but again, sort of pricey. Everything in Lush smelled really good though!
I know I’ve probably commented saying you should try Lush like a bajillion times already, but it is really fantastic. I’ve been using Lush for years, and now I work for the company. ‘I’ve never had better skin (or hair). I would die if certain products were ever discontinued and its not as expensive for what the product is. Check out the online site or a store nearby, if you have one, your nose will know. But seriously.. I should send you some… i love your necklace btw ^^
3rd and last comment :p… lol… thank you for the info on the alcohol… I didn’t knew that and I loved the info cuz since I use those products I’m gonna see if I keep ussing them or not.. but thanks for the very well explaned info! MUAH!
ps: I was lucky enough to had participate in a class by Dior back when I was in Aruba… and well I’m not a pro but according to what they thought me, the serum opens ur pores, giving way for you to apply a cream moisturizer and so it deep penetrates ur pores… that’s why ur face gets all red but it calms down after a few minutes… I use it every day and night… you should ask people that knew me few years back and they would tell you my face had major change after ussing Dior prod… IL IT!!
Thanks for the video! I like skin care also and this video was very informative… I used to use Dior Deep-Hydraction Serum and since I turned 25 I’m ussing the 60/80 collection which is the Dior Deep Hydraction first wrinkles serum and I think maybe you should try that one instead. The deep Hydraction radical serum is very light and for delicate skin or younger people like 18 – 20… the 60/80 is alot stronger so you FEEL it work… I love it… you shoud try it out I think you’ll like it!
Thank you for sharing!!! Def. going to try a serum moisturizer for night now.
