▷ Trying to find I wear, eat, and read on a regular basis?! It's all here!!

🔴 Although I have over 1000 videos on skincare and acne I realized sometimes it's still hard for people to remember which acne products I recommend, vs those that I think are a waste of money!

I decided to create this helpful skincare list of breakout and other skin products that are acne-safe, that I personally recommend and put them all in one place! I hope you find this helpful- enjoy!

Hi Cassandra, can you make a video about red flags in an esthetician please! I've been looking for a good one!

[SkinbyAyele]

Licensed Esthie here 🙋🏾‍♀️ I’ve been trying FOREVER to get all my friends to get rid of their makeup wipes and switch to double cleansing 😩 let’s just say easier said then done lol 😒

[lara_Penzel]

Such a cool video concept 😍 I am a gynocology intern and I would remove any type of non prescription genital-vaginal creme/shower gel/ deodorant. I see so many cases of infections bc of products that disturbed the pH. Please if you notice differences in smell or color go see a professional. 😊

I can back up that allergy claim. I had no issues with US chemical sunscreens. Used them as a kid and into adulthood. However, about 8ish yrs ago went on a cruise late fall and had hives the entire time. Thought it was the chlorine or bleach. Fast forward to summer and used the sunscreen again (yes I've changed my ways since then and use sunscreen in winter), playing tennis. Low and behold it was the sunscreen that was giving me a reaction. I can't use ANY products that have spf that get absorbed. Thankfully, makeup is fine. Went through mineral sunscreens and hated them. But then I watched one of your sunscreen videos where you were talking about Korean sunscreens. Went on stylevanna after having an ah ha moment where I knew I never had exposure to their chemical suncreens so I figured I'd be fine. I ordered the Beauty of Joseon and haven't looked back! Love the no scent (hated the US chemical sunscreen smell. Its why I never wore it) and it feels amazing on my skin. Best part.... no hives! ❤

Australian here, I have never seen that paw paw cream, nor is it widely available here in Australia. What I would like to clarify though... THE original Lucas' Papaw OINTMENT of 1890 (comes in simple black and red packaging from Acacia Ridge Brisbane, iykyk) is only meant to be used topically on minor cuts/burns and at most as a lip balm when you have a cold sore, or for treating nappy rash on babies, NOT as an everyday moisturiser. It really is just a miniscule amount of fermented paw paw (papaya as the rest of the world calls it) extract mixed in with vaseline, but amazing at treating cuts and grazes. From what I can gather, the ointment and paw paw cream are very different products, so please don't think they are the same thing.

Thx a ton getting rid of my dermaroller stat (maybe used it 3x) was extremely cleanly with it before and after but don’t need that type of unwanted damage❤️ love your videos

[rutaa]

Thank you Cassandra for showing your real skin no filters, no lies, etc. I remember being 16 about 10 years ago looking at filtered pictures and looking at the mirror and crying even though I had no major issues with my skin, I felt so ugly compared to the perfect pictures online that were not real but I didnt know pictures online were fake, I remember such a heartache thinking I was doomed to have bad skin and being ugly for the rest of my life and now I realise I was never ugly I had normal beautiful skin that I was probably should have been proud of, shame I cant go back in time to tell this to my younger self

[Efrosyni]

Frankly I have been using a Dermapen and a microneedling roller ( sanitizing, not overdoing, using the correct serums etc) since many years now and they both have worked miracles on my skin .. very happy with the results at 64 yrs

[notsomuchthankyou]

I find it hilarious that the no-no's you mentioned are linked under the title, but not the sunscreen you promoted. What?! Likely a YouTube-ism. Also, please link to the movies! :)

[KhaeLikesCoffee]

I'm glad you put Neosporin on this list lol. Horrible stuff. Haven't used it in years, vaseline is the way to go.

[ladybaabaa]

I used to have one of those loofahs. One time I went to use it after a while of not using it, and it was covered in SPECKLES OF (and yep, it had been hanging in the shower)

I also used to use one of those at-home rollers...with facial OIL. 😅😅😅 Omg. Not anymore.

I also used to use the St Ives apricot scrub, and it made my skin really soft, BUT...after a while, it didn't. And then all my skincare people said my skin barrier was compromised!

[kindseyvaughn]

Since I don’t have much positive things going on in my life right now, I’m going to flex here and say I’ve either never had any of these products, Microneedler and nerospirin, or have bought/used in over 10 years at.Ives (aggravated my acne so haven’t used in over 15 years) and plastic loofas(I’ve always had a bit of a phobia to plastic like apparently hated pacifiers as a baby even). I’ve only recently started using only fragrance free skin care products though.I do want shout out to the Ordinary for making fragrance-free products affordable! I only have one known allergy but you know let’s keep it that way!

[verditerthistle]

I wish someone had come into my bathroom when I was in middle school and threw out the comedone extractor tool 😭😭 probably would have saved me from years of struggling with acne from picking at my skin 😔 great video tho! I’m gonna stop using neosporin and switch to vaseline :)

[rosela_aesthetic]

Who thinks Cassandra is one of the best YouTubers?❤❤❤

[adelefreeman]

Dr Ragani has a great video on microneedling with a derma roller for those of us who can't afford to come into the office. I've been using a derma roller x 5 years without any issues. I reorder every 6 weeks, sterilize in between once/week use. 😊

My husband uses the same cheap body wash from head to toe. I so badly want to steal it and give him some nice cleansers - one for his face and a separate one for his body. What's even more frustrating is that his skin always looks great! lol

[SoniaAlese]

As a massage therapist trained in lymphatic drainage massage, you need to dry brush from the feet upwards, not head to toe, because the point is to move your lymph in the correct direction to move your lymphatic fluid along thise vessels back to the lymph nodes and drain into the heart. Going the opposite way can increase your body's inflammation and swelling. Perhaps a better solution is having one dry brush for Legs and feet, then a different one for the rest of the body. And clean them after use.

Those micro needling visuals are terrifying 😅 eeee! I don't think I could do it.

1. Loofah - I have a soft one that I regularly throw in with the whites to get bleached. And it dries off between showers because I set a fan to dry off my towel and it also hits the loofah.
2. You would have to pry my bacitracin zinc, neomycin sulfate and polymyxin B sulfate ointment out of my dead hands. I garden every day and get many cuts and scrapes. I use this under band aides and I do think I heal much faster.
3. Scrubs - use them on my feet because I garden in loafers and my feet get very dirty.

Thanks for caring about us!! I use the first kind ->soft tutu-fabric type shower loofah. I pull it apart when i buy it until it’s about twice the size. Softer and way looser is the goal. If i overdo the pulling apart i sew it together a tiny bit in the centre. Fun to use. 🚿Afterwards i shake it out well and hang it up. Dries quickly🫶
