imagine how easy our lives would be if their was only 1 kind of acne

Teenage me wishes I had a Cassandra to teach me all of this stuff!

[tara-xgiv]

Can’t believe you released this right after my skin started reacting to my ordinary products I just bought. I’m still not sure if I’m purging I hope I am..

[OlaFemi]

I love your videos, please note that there are black girls watching you too (raises hands) so when you show pictures of what hives, flaking etc. looks like, it would be great to see an example of hives on brown skin too just so I have a reference when I start my new products. Keep up the awesome work, great to see qualified people speaking with knowledge, yes female scientists! X

Niacinamide made me purge sooo much, and the salicylic masque makes me purge whenever I use it, glycolic acid also made me peel - but I noticed that all the tiny bumps that were hiding under the surface of my skin since high school have totally disappeared! I still get break outs of course but seeing how the skin works and what pulls things from the glands is just the MOST FASCINATING SHIT EVER.

Quarantine really made me don't know what to do with my skin

[fiona]

As a teenager that struggles with acne, I am honestly so so grateful for ur channel!!

[immortelle.]

Sometimes, I wish I could fall apart in the shower tbh

That actually helped me a lot! I just started using The Ordinary products and got so scared when my skin suddenly got a lot worse. I thought that the product wasn’t for me, or even worse, I was allergic to it. Keep in mind, I started using it about 2 days ago. So this definitely helped me a lot, because nobody - and I mean NOBODY talks about this, so I thought that my skin will become so much better immediately when I started my first skin care routine. Wow, thanks a lot! 😊😊😊

[JustABowlOfOats]

I cannot wait until my skin has finished purging! I am trying so hard to keep from picking at the whiteheads!!

[-auroo-]

I started The Inkey List salicylic acid cleanser a month and a half ago, at first my skin purged a lot but I kept telling myself "it gets worse before it gets better" and now it's almost completely clear



*yay*

[aspenhoward]

Thank you! You posted this video at the right time for me. I JUST started using niacinamide and I felt bummed about it potentially making my skin worse. I think I’m going to stick it out because the pimples that popped up seem to already be fading quicker than they would without it.

[ellamayem]

This video was uploaded at the PERFECT time. About to binge watch it now, I love you Cassandra! Hope you're doing well!

Teenage me is grateful that I have Cassandra to almost solve all my problems

I’m one of the women who breakout like a crazy when I first taking birth control pills. Took me like 6 months until everything settled and now my skin is definitely less oily (still but a lot less) and not having crazy huge pimples anymore which I’m happy enough. But the thing is, it makes you depressed like really bad. Talk to your GP before taking this medication is the best way.

you're the first person I actually understood when they were talking about skin purging

[ivydepaula]

I love her so much! Because she directly get to the point. No need intro. Haha

Great video Cassandra as always. I hope you've had an uptake on that patch testing video. I was watching another youtuber using the AHA BHA Peel from the ordinary the other day and they had done it WITHOUT patch testing. She said that it really burner her skin within seconds and hurt badly (may have been overstatement as her skin had no redness next day by the looks of it). A lot of her viewers had the same reaction and stopped but after watching her video they were all talking about tolerating the burn for the after effects. I commented on almost every one of those comments with a recommendation that they visit your video on patch testing before doing it. It seemed to me like they were all reacting badly but ready to go again. I told them that their face could explode in blisters if it's too harsh so I really and truly hope that they have checked out the video first instead of marring themselves for life with a strong acid. I'm a week into skincare today. My face is starting to come up in little red patches (not itchy or irritating - didn't know they were there until I looked in the mirror) but I think that's actually from facial hair removal and not the treatments. However, I've been watching so many of your videos I was expecting a purge so didn't freak. That's why I love your channel. Even at my age (nearing 50) I'm still learning so much. Thank you so much Cassandra. You've really been a beacon of information for me in learning how to look after my skin and what it needs. As we say here in Ireland - you're a wee star and don't ever let anyone tell ya different! <3 Love ya back.

my skin is the worst it's ever been in my life right now. I'm using facial acids (going to switch to Retinoids when I see the derm next month). The areas where I wasn't erupting before as insanely smooth and luminous. I'm two weeks into the purge. Another way you can tell it isn't a normal breakout is by the length of time the new breakouts last. Purge pimples will go away in a few days, an opposed to 5-8 for normal acne. I can't leave the house right now but it's worth it - I suffer from so many closed comedones. There are few things more satisfying than seeing blackheads that have been stuck for ten years melting away! Worth the pain! Stay strong y'all 😔✊
