Those pore strips are invaluable for pulling out splinters in hard to reach/see places or for kids who hate tweezers. You just cut off a piece big enough, wet it, wait, and presto! No more painful splinter.
Excellent advice, and I learned a lot from this video.

I'm 29 and have struggled with blackheads/sebaceous filaments on my nose since puberty. I've tried all the 'DIY' cures egg mask, lemon juice, toothpaste etc. So after killing my skin, all I needed was Salicylic acid cleanser, paulas choice bha and the ordinary niacinamide. Been using these for about 3 weeks and noticing such a difference 😀

I just wanted to say that I love this channel.. It’s been super informative on how products actually work and if they would even be beneficial to the skin goal I’m trying to reach. I love how you guys include scientific evidence. I can really tell that you guys know what y’all are talking about!!! Would you guys be able to tell more about how these different chemicals interact with each other or best practices on how and when to apply them ?

I appreciate you giving budget friendly options that work. It seems like everyone recommends high end brands when talking about skincare. It feels like I’m being told if I want something that actually works, it has to be expensive. I would love to purchase some luxurious high end products, but unfortunately, at the moment I don’t have the budget for them. 💸

Oh my gosh! This is THE video I’ve been needing for my whole life since puberty! And I’m 34. Thank you. My number one biggest skin annoyance is those darker colored clogged pores (NOT blackheads). So thank you thank you!

This was so straight forward and informative! My language regarding skin care with my young daughter today is drastically different from when I was a child/teen. We are sunscreen buddies. Thank you so much!

I also find that double cleansing with an oil cleanser (like Inkey List Oat Cleansing Balm $11) then a water cleanser (like Inkey List Salacyluc Acid Cleanser $11) really helps, and making sure to give my clogged pore areas a bit of extra (but gentle!) Attention, helps a lot in immediately reducing the look of clogged pores.

Really loved this short yet informative video. No bs, only smooth n clean information about skincare awareness. Yay!! Thanks a lot gus.

I’ve struggled with badly clogged pores all my life. Salicylic acid worked okay, but just was too harsh and drying for me. I have a regular routine now where I use lactic acid once per week (really love Sunday Riley good genes), glycolic acid once per week, and then retinol 3 days per week. Adding that retinol was a real game changer for me! My skin is so dang happy. My nose still gets kind of clogged, so I’ll hit just my nose area with Paula’s salicylic acid as needed.

watching this video reminded me of when sebaceous filaments were one of my biggest skincare concerns so i looked at my old photos before i started niacinamide. and wow for me it totally worked. obviously i still have some build up but i didn’t even realize how much progress i made. slow and gradual really is the way

Was super comfortable watching this content and learning a bit about an area of skin that is bothersome without making it gross or awkward. I will definitely check out more content on this channel.

[sarahillingworth]

clogged pores are the reason I can't stand my face. but if that's my main problem, I'm doing ok. Love these videos xx

[MissuhsipEgirl]

At 42, I have finally started trying to do proper skincare, while also reaching my 16 and 13 years Olds a good routine. I've learned so much thru your videos.

[couberry]

My face has always been super kind to me. Washing it more than once a week actually causes me to break out. I am mostly watching this to find treatment for a sebaceous filament issue on my neck that I have been trying to get rid of for 13yrs.
Thank you for all the helpful tips!!!

[ladyj.]

You guys are doing such a major service to the public, truly

[darlyncastillo]

I love that you both always give us two different opinions :) I can’t tell you guys don’t always agree on products but that’s the best part :)

[messybunonabudget]

Thank you for this! My acne tends to be from clogged pores and I struggle with some of these enlarged sebaceous filaments around my nose and on my chin. I have been using most of these ingredients already and they have helped, but didn’t realize that I could be using the sa cleanser, cerave retinol, and niacinamide in the same routine. I had been alternating the retinol with niacinimide or vit c serum at night. Thanks!

[keshiaremington]

I find so much value in these videos and i love that you give product options and variations in opinions so that the consumer can make their own choices!

[whoareyou]

I really appreciate you gents, the science, the approach, the product recommendations I really appreciate it as someone with type 3/4 skin it took me yeaaarrrssss of learning this and that to start seeing results and honestly folks like y’all really have been my blessing. Also shoutout to the good estheticians, derms, etc out there!
