Skincare FAQs!


In a couple of my most recent videos I have mentioned several times that I have been trying to clear up my skin for the past year or so. As I look back at where my skin was four years ago and where it is now I am extremely happy and satisfied with my skin! Some of you may know I am in school for esthetics right now and I have to say I have learned so much already about the importance of taking care of your skin. I also want to recognize a fellow Youtuber named Foxynerd101, who's videos have helped me get started on the clear skin journey.




How did you clear up your skin?

-I started by just starting a skincare regimen. Then I changed my eating habits, I started working out more, and I started drinking A LOT MORE WATER!!!!

When did you start to see results?

-Once I started my skincare regimen I started to see results pretty quickly, in terms of fewer breakouts and then the fading of the hyper-pigmentation on my face. In 2012, I feel I have seen my skin clear up even more because I started to drink a lot of water this year and I also changed my lifestyle.

What products do you use?

-Makeup Remover: Neutrogena Makeup Remover wipes or Walmart Brand Makeup Remover Wipes

-Facial Wash: Clean and Clear Essentials Foaming Facial Cleanser

-Scrub: St. Ives Apricot Scrub

-Toner: Witch Hazel

-Moisturizer: Ponds Dry Skin Cream (Night), Cetaphil Moisturizing Lotion (Day)

What is your skincare regimen now?

-If I'm wearing a full face of makeup, I will remove it first with a makeup remover wipe. Then I apply my cleanser. To really remove dirt, oil, makeup and it also kinda exfoliates my skin a bit I use my Sally's facial brush. Depending on the day, next I'll apply a scrub. Then my toner and next depending on the time of day I'll either apply my nighttime or daytime moisturizer. I also have incorporated my PMD, click here to  see my review, so I use that probably once or twice a month.

Are you still using the PMD?

-Yes, I am still using the PMD. I still stand by my review of the device. Once again, I'm going to say be careful when using it because I had two or three scars from where I guess I held the device on for too long.

If you all have anymore questions, please feel free to ask them.
