Tina what does the retinol do specifically? And you buy retinol just by itself? Like as you can the hyaluronic acid, or is it mixed in with other ingredients? I am really new to this channel and to skincare like period. I am 27 years old and want to start really focusing on my skin care routine, so I’m in the studying phase trying to learn what to buy and when/how to use it and how often. It can be very overwhelming amounts of info, as she said in the video there’s so much information and it can be circumstantial to each individuals situation. Lol so I am feeling a bit lost, thinking I might need to hire a dermatologist to set me up on a routine.
@@BrEaNn804 retinol is a type of vitamin A. it is mainly used as an anti aging agent but it can be used for acne, dark spots, fine lines etc. it can be somewhat skin sensitizing (so if you use it during the day never skip your spf!!) tho which is why some people like to mix it with a hyaluronic acid serum or some other humectant. but retinol that you buy at a store is usually already prepared with other ingredients that will help deliver it to your skin correctly. The Ordinary is a good brand to start with since their products aren't pricy at all and you can mix and match and play around and see what you like. Using retinol in cream or serum form is A ok. :> hope this helps and good luck on your skincare journey!
Not to mention that The Ordinary gives the percentage of the Hyaluronic Acid in the product while Dr. Sturm does not. You could literally be paying $300 for 1% Hyaluronic Acid lol no thanks
After seeing her skincare and Dr. Barbara Sturm's skincare, I've realized that some of these people we hold in such high esteem and we expect much from, doesn't know much about skincare to begin with and their skincare routine really needs some work.
Goes to show the noise Beauty industry is filled with. That is why brands like Deciem are such a breath of fresh air. There is no logical argument against the Founder's vision for the brand.
@@aliyahp9969 me? Currently it's a mix of some staple French drugstore (Avene, la roche posay), prescription strength tretinoin + hydroquinone for occasional spot treatment, some fixed ones from ordinary like l ascorbic acid powder with matrixyl/ ferulic acid always under the sunscreen (another thing that I like to play around with a lot - all k beauty like klairs airy soft uv essence, purito centella and shiseido anessa), and then some fixed ones from ordinary for night like niacinamide, glycolic acid Toner, alpha arbutin and retinol, rosehip seed oil and a weekly aha / bha peel.
Lols let's not forget, Dr.Barbara Sturm is the same Dr. that doesn't believe in sunscreen/sunblock. She also claimed that she created the "Vampire Facial" in a Sephora master class
She infuriates me so much it's not even funny. I want someone to expose her. I can 1000000000% guarantee that if SHE herself had a sunscreen product, then she'd also be brandishing that around on social media and in her videos. I'm theorizing that scammer doesn't believe in sunscreen/sunblock cause there's not any in her own skincare line.
Tbh, a lot of people who are spiritual nowadays actually reject sunscreen completely & they put something with magnesium on their skin to absorb more sunlight.
I V There are an inundation of celebrities showing the products, who likely are being paid copious amounts for doing so. It seems to be inauthentic marketing to me, and it makes me suspicious of the brand. Companies have been particularly dishonest in marketing lately, due to competition: i.e., the Sunday Riley review scandal. Be a conscientious consumer and choose for yourself despite celebrity endorsement.
Honestly celebs use them because dr. Barbara strum gives them for free. People use what they know and most people don’t deviate. And companies being dishonest or “boosting” with fake reviews isn’t new. They’re trying to influence. Sunday Riley specifically sounded like it wasn’t trying to deceive but correct those that had unrealistic expectations of a product or didn’t use it long enough. I had a lady come into my place of work and she was just so impatient to speak with me and was angry I didn’t turn away from another customer to address her. She left a review saying how patient she was and that I ignored her. That wasn’t at all what happened but it hurt the business. I can see (it’s not right) but I can see why brands might try and correct these negative reviews. That is not to say all companies have good intentions, but part of being a conscious consumer is trying to see the whole picture even with limited information and doubting everything, from the reviewer to the company.
You know that just cuz ur rich doesnt mean you have to care about the environment lol. Being rich doesnt all of a sudden make you want to take care of the earth. So your saying being a non millionaire means u automatically care about the earth??
Paula Nunes technically water is denser than oil. That’s why oil floats on water. However, when she mentioned that oils go first so that more watery texture can penetrate easily, the real question would be why even go through that process and instead apply watery texture first lol
you’re both right! A water molecule by itself has a lower molecular weight compared to an oil molecule. Thus, an oil molecule is heavier (measured by mass multiplied by the acceleration due to gravity) than a water molecule. Regarding what Suha said, water is indeed denser. So density is mass per unit volume. So within the same volume (like 1 cup), there will be a greater mass of water compared to the oil. Meaning, one unit volume of water is heavier than one unit volume of oil. Neither of y’all probably care and Susan’s point was definitely about penetration ability, but it just made my physics teacher heart happy to talk about this!
So I'm a 17 year old guy who knew virtually nothing of skincare a couple of months ago. I occasionally have worn makeup over the last several years when I have a live performance or modelling shoot, and I would always break out after wearing it. I always assumed it was the makeup, but IT WAS THE WIPES!!! These last several times I have had to wear makeup, I have instead used a cleansing balm before moving forward with any other cleanse and no breakout! I've used several brands of makeup wipes over the years, and all of them broke me out. The surfactants in the wipes are just way to harsh on the skin to use it as a cleanser.
@@SusanYara Girl I always use an oil cleanser but late last year I decided to get some makeup wipes for when I didn't want to oil cleanse and they really did make my skin raw (even with them being formulated for sensitive skin and me being very gentle with wiping.)

I love when Susan says “I’m not ganna get into the make up wipe rant” & gets into her make up wipe rant 😂😂 followed by “but I’m not ganna get into it you know how I feel about them” & then brings them up again 😂😂😂😂 I love her lol I feel the same way
@@simplytitanium7919 oh my God, I can imagine! MY ex boyfriend used wash his face with shampoo and have the nicest skin ever while I had this 5 step skin care routine, struggling with acne. It is unbelievable
LANVY Wynn you know who cares about the environment the most ? Multi million dollar corporations and rich people, they just love going green and use shampoo bar 😂😂😂😂
"I feel immediately that the product works" always makes me so uneasy. No - you feel immediately that the product has ingredients that make your skin tingle. That's all.
It's a bunch of nonsense, your body regulates the proper PH levels on itself. If not, you'd be in trouble. It's sad to see someone otherwise so educated spewing things like these.
@@martinar.5722 well of course the body maintains a normal ph level but it's still ideal to not throw it off balance even for a little bit since then your skin/body gets angry with you for throwing the ph off balance
@@kaleighm993 I'm sorry what? Your body gets angry? I don't understand that statement. Do you know how acidic your stomach is?? Anything hitting that is turning acidic instantly.
I think we need to stop a minute and remember that skincare 20 years ago was very different, so some things may have been correct for the time that she was an esthetician. I know some techniques seem off but my mom was a beautician and was taught similarly.
tammystiletto she’s rich enough that there’s no excuse. She can see a dermatologist and/or esthetician if she doesn’t want to stay up to date herself. She’s in the industry though, even if she wasn’t wealthy it’s odd.
S B I don’t care what people do to their own body in the privacy of their own home. Have at it. But she’s filming her routine for countless people to see and uses her company and esthetician background to imply she knows what she’s talking about when she doesn’t. That’s my issue, I don’t want people thinking that’s based on any evidence because it’s not. And the filters and lights most of these videos use make it so you really have no idea what her skin looks like.
The mind-blowing thing I learnt is *Dr. Barbara Strum isn't even a dermatologist or even an aesthetician for that matter, she has her doctorate in orthopaedics* 🤦 She, I bet, just sends products to the celebrities for free for advertising!
@@footyfan101ful ha! What? That's probably bcz she wants people to screw their skin while using her products as in not keep it protected, so they end up using more of her products just to undo the damage and then it's a consumerism cycle. She's a Guru at coning people I feel!
She is not a Doctor. She went to a "technical school" in Germany studied Osteopathy and she uses Dr. in her name only in the U.S because it's not regulated. She doesn't have PhD as well
SO happy celebrity reactions are back, but I do hope they'll be more Derm reactions to normal people routines too because those were so educational! (And both Derms were such sweeties!)
I always have to remind myself to not “thumbs down” because I don’t like what the person doing their skin routine says lol I know that’s not your fault!
Welcome back Susan! You look good! I'm so glad that you did a reaction video to Anastasia's routine. I watched a video where Nicole Scherzinger mentioned that moisturizer where they take your blood an incorporate it into the moisturizer. I'd never heard of it before that. It is interesting though
I gave up the makeup wipes because of you! I’m so happy I found you, can’t imagine if I kept on without knowing what I do now...good thing I’m only 22 haha
at this point, I'm convinced these drugstore brands pay to be mentioned in these videos, a face wipe is the only believable step for these celebrities to incorporate into their routines
Brenda Guerrero That’s a really good point. Even if they don’t understand why makeup wipes are not ideal, I imagine they would use high-end wipes at the very least. It’s just really difficult for me to believe that someone like her who, even if she doesn’t go out and buy her own skincare, you know she gets sent a shit ton of high-end skincare that she could easily use. I’m with you, I just don’t believe she uses those Aveeno wipes in real life.
@@barciabarciabarcia17 exactly! They always feel cheap and soapy and I hate the feeling it leaves on my skin. Thank God for k-beauty and Susan for showing us the right way, lol
It is the same bullshit as make up wipes in skin care. I know it is hard to admit that we are wrong, but please, just look it up for yourself and at least do not advertise it to your impressionable audience before checking it thoroughly, just like you used to use make up wipes in the past and now you dont because you became educated.
Yes. We use makeup wipes because... they are convenient, less messy, and removes Covergirl outlast lipstick. I use Biore facial cloths [I only need one, because they are so good}, and facial cleanser. Best I have tried so far. Followed by Amorepacific treatment toner, a lifting serum {So far I am surprisingly liking Mary Kays timewise repair serum. I know... It really works}, and Tatcha moisturiser.
Yeah, I see this series as pure advertisement and entertainment. I hope that most people aren't actually taking skincare advice and product reccommendations from these celebrities.
It's so good to have you back, Susan!! So excited to see another reaction video. Also: could you *please* include outtakes in subsequent videos? They're hilarious 🤣
could you do a video where you talk about the different skincare products (serums, acids, oils, etc.) and when to use them during your routine?? this would be incredibly helpful!!
I saw a thumbnail for one of his videos with shane and he has forehead wrinkles despite getting botox and only being in his early 30s so i doubt it’s working lol
I feel like if you’re seeing a high end facial esthetician and getting a massage often you can do whatever tf you like to your skin and you’d be fine lol, but for the rest of us peasants I die a little on the inside watching those wipes lol
Honestly not true at all! The occasional treatment can’t make up for a lack of proven ingredients used daily. Sunscreen and retinoids as well as proper cleansing and moisturizing are a must and you can’t make up for neglecting that. Many facials just needlessly aggravate the skin too.
Aesthetician here .. this is something that I've seen with other people in this field of work. I'm a very young aesthi (turning 21 this month) and I put a lot of effort and time in educating myself and keeping up with everything that's got to do with skin. What I've seen with other (and most of the time older) people who work/used to work as an aesthetician is that they're very gridlocked on what they believe in. Obviously this doesn't apply to everyone and there's aesthis that are older than me that also know that with a profession like ours the most important thing is to keep learning but there's also some that will never read up new data and research results about skin care and ingredients and they will always think that what they learned x years ago is the truth. I feel like that is what happened to Anastasia. She also comes across like she has lost (if she ever had it) her spark and passion about skin care and just buys the most expensive stuff because she can. It's sad but things like this happen.
I had the notification bell turned on just to see this video ASAP! Thank you Susan, another awesome video and your channel inspired me to make my own skincare channel🔔
She's getting the products for free thats why. Darker skin tone is newer so she is just using their newest release that they sent her. Love your videos!!
I have just discovered your channel and spent the entire day binge watching reactions. I recently started seriously looking after my skin and your videos are so helpful! and OMG, you are so pretty!
Welcome back Susan!!! Can you review Dr Sturm’s next? I haven’t watched it yet but I want to know what u think for a person that has her own skincare line.. and it’s very expensive too 🤪
Interesting though that PRP is inflammatory and Anastasia talked about an anti inflammatory diet 😑 Growth factors (manufactured or our own) are efficacious as messengers even if physically they don’t penetrate so this is an intriguing product for sure. La Mer is actually great.....it’s just WAY overpriced lol And “smells so good” is so so bad. Ha! She’s a beautiful lady. Fun to watch💜 Happy post-pregnancy!! 🥰
But doesn’t the La Mer moisturizer contain mineral oil? I’m semi-okay with it in something that’s not staying on my skin, like a cleansing balm (but, even in that, I tend to avoid it), but not in something like a moisturizer that’s going to stay on my skin. It’s a cheap ingredient that is problematic for a lot of people’s skin, so I was really surprised to see it in the iconic La Mer moisturizer. I used it for a while and was completely unimpressed.
Keep in mind that celebrities can also afford top of the line skin treatments from dermatologists and estheticians on a regular basis, so she can probably undo the damage from those makeup wipes better than most of us.
crochetqueenmd Also fillers, Botox, etc. No shade to anyone who gets it done, but I hate when people assume it’s just the skincare products that celebrities use (aka la mer and Dr. Barbara sturm)
That’s what I think, they go to the esthetician or whatever who fixes their clogged pores or sells them more product or treatments. Everyone’s happy! Except for us watching (and the environment!)
I feel a little better about my routine now. Lmao. It’s not the biggest budget but I know what every product is doing and where it should go. And I don’t use wipes EVERRRR.
The annoying part is that these people are so wealthy that they could have the least sensical skincare routine and it wouldn't matter that much because they can afford to regularly see estheticians and dermatologists to correct whatever skin issues they have.
Even though I know that the Barbra Strum product line is highly expensive, I really don’t think they are worth the price IMO. They are glorified versions of drugstore and The Ordinary products based off of the ingredients I’ve seen on Sephora, especially because of the fragrance in them which I mean cmon they don’t have a functionality in skincare 🤷🏻♀️ Love Anastasia tho, she’s a legend. I am a person with sensitive skin and I just don’t agree with fragrance being in anything that goes on my face.
Felix W to my knowledge anything that has any “fruit oils” or to more specific sweet almond oil can be very sensitizing to people like me with sensitive skin. Yes her line doesn’t contain parfum/fragrances but for me I wished it didn’t have the fruit oils. 🤷🏻♀️
I love your scientific approach to skincare and almost agree with everything you said. But alkaline water? Seriously? Our body doesn't have only one PH. Blood for example has around 7,4 while muscles even tend to be more acidic with lower PH. Our bodys are very good at holding these PH levels where they are and that is a good thing. Making the PH of the blood higher than 8 could cause serious health problems and even death. The only PH level that we can change in our body by drinking alkaline water is the PH of our urin. Thats because our kidneys take H+ or OH- atoms/molecules out of the rest of our system to hold the physiological PH levels in specific parts of the body on a constant level. Resulting in more alkaline or acidic urin. So if you really wanted to change the PH of your blood, you would want to interfere with your kidneys. Which is essentially a very very bad idea....
Same thoughts. I like Susan, but the alkaline water statement really suprised me! Anything alkaline (or acidic for that matter) is immediately buffered by your body- bicarb production from the renal system, HCl in the stomach, respiratory drive mediated by CO2 receptors. Drinking alkaline water isn't harmful, just an expensive drink. It takes a serious medical condition that overcomes the body's natural compensatory mechanisms, such as DKA, respiratory failure, sepsis, renal failure, to substantially alter your pH.
When she pulled out Aveeno makeup wipes ... 😮 This whole thing blows my mind. I tend to avoid fragrance when I can but I do use some products with fragrance. Like you said - pick your battles. For me, if the product isn't enjoyable to apply or use, I don't always feel motivated to apply them on a regular.
i understand sometimes we need to use wipes in some occasions,like travelling and so on...but in other cases its useless..i love my cleanser and water. always.
Darcy L ikr. If she is using her true skin care routine. It would be products from different brands like myself. From cleanser to sunscreen are frim different brands
I agree with Susan On the makeup wipes. I only ever used makeup wipes once, and due to the continuous rubbing and tugging my skin was so inflamed and irritated. That one time was enough for me to never touch a wipe again.
I think you hit the nail on the head when you said skin care is supposed to be self indulgent. I am using glow recipe and herbivore, neither of which I would call cheap and I’m not wealthy. But it’s something little I can do for myself to enhance my mood and give me something to look forward to at the beginning and end of my day. ❤️
Welcome back! Congratulations on the little one!! I would love to see a review on Timeless Skincare and Rodan&Fields. Also, question can I use a glycolic acid cream along with a retinol serum?
I'm trying to stop using them too after I heard on the radio how many hundreds of thousands of wipes wind up just sitting in landfills, unable to break down. And they make my skin sting half the time anyway. Double cleansing is working better for me.
You should do a skincare dupe video of high end vs drugstore. Lots of products contain the same ingredients so this would be interesting to see alternatives!
Esthetics student here.... I’m baffled she’s using Aveeno makeup wipes with all the other high quality products... Also, cringed every single time she used product on her neck because she was wiping down. 🙈🙈
Susan I love you but I don't understand why people think alkaline water balances their internal pH. you have a whole acid base homeostasis system in your body that does it for you lol
I use makeup wipes as the first step ONLY when removing makeup so i do not use them daily I have special cleansers afterwards and they are different for eyes and face :)
TBH I agree with you Susan, when you have the money you just do whatever you want. Honestly I watch those videos and yours just for the fun, because I really do enjoy watching them, some of us would do the same or worse with the money. All skincare’s are different... that’s all
Amanda Leigh because there are literally people out there who can’t afford to spend any extra money on their skin. It is a privilege to get a facial when there’s people struggling to just survive.
@@AmandaLeighS perhaps you may want to pay for more important things like bills it is not easy for the average person to spend money on a luxury like this
You have a new subscriber!! You had me when you said you can’t understand why people use makeup whipes! I have tried to convince people of this for the longest time. I honestly thought I was on my own because it looks like everyone on TH-cam is using them! Thank you!!!! 🙏🙋🏼♀️😁
I've only used makeup wiped once in my life. Everyone talked about makeup wipes so I thought I'd try them. After trying them once, I realised that: 1-my skin feels like I tried to peel it off my face 2-it doesn't even clean the face that well!!! Therefore I agree that makeup wipes are a nono😂🙅
I am definitely guilty of using a make up wipe 😩but only on those very lazy nights and they are compostable! Most of the time I use a cleaning oil. DHC is my go-to at the moment. LOVE THIS SERIES!!

You don't need alkaline water to balance your body's pH 😑 you have two pairs of organs in your body for that purpose - kidneys and lungs✌️
Exactly. The only pH you're changing with alkaline water is that of your stomach's. Which is not that good for the regulation of our gut bacteria...

@@simplytitanium7919 oh my God, I can imagine! MY ex boyfriend used wash his face with shampoo and have the nicest skin ever while I had this 5 step skin care routine, struggling with acne. It is unbelievable
yo Susan is hilarious her face during "Im not really sure why she would use a cleanser meant for darker skin tones." had me dead.
William Stamm I wish she would have explained!
@@SusanYara Probably because that was the one she was gifted!
Yeah and the HA serum was for darker skin tones too which is confusing
Darker skin tones usually have lots of hyperpigmentation scars so maybe she's attempting to remove dark aging spots? 🧐
ahh i really want to see a review on DR. STURM on Harper's BAZAAR
Caterina Song that one really annoyed me. It was a foregone conclusion she would use her own stuff. Why even make that video. Just my opinion, though.
they just came out with her skincare routine ... basically one giant commercial
“Take care of your skin....but who the F-*K care about the environment...” wipe wipe wipe
LANVY Wynn you know who cares about the environment the most ? Multi million dollar corporations and rich people, they just love going green and use shampoo bar 😂😂😂😂
Lmao 🤣🤣
I agree with you !
What does one thing have to do with another?
Leah Feigen-Bookstaber what are you saying
"I feel immediately that the product works" always makes me so uneasy. No - you feel immediately that the product has ingredients that make your skin tingle. That's all.
Yeah she also said that her skin immediately feels more tight. That makes me cringe so much. There’s probably alcohol in there.
How's lemon in water and alkaline water the same thing? I'm confused, isn't the PH for lemon very low, while alkaline water is higher than 7?
the PH in lemon once digested gets higher, therefore alkalizing.
It's a bunch of nonsense, your body regulates the proper PH levels on itself. If not, you'd be in trouble. It's sad to see someone otherwise so educated spewing things like these.
@@martinar.5722 well of course the body maintains a normal ph level but it's still ideal to not throw it off balance even for a little bit since then your skin/body gets angry with you for throwing the ph off balance
@@martinar.5722 It's not entirely bullshit. Acid-forming foods aren't good for the body.
@@kaleighm993 I'm sorry what? Your body gets angry? I don't understand that statement. Do you know how acidic your stomach is?? Anything hitting that is turning acidic instantly.
I think we need to stop a minute and remember that skincare 20 years ago was very different, so some things may have been correct for the time that she was an esthetician. I know some techniques seem off but my mom was a beautician and was taught similarly.
tammystiletto she’s rich enough that there’s no excuse. She can see a dermatologist and/or esthetician if she doesn’t want to stay up to date herself. She’s in the industry though, even if she wasn’t wealthy it’s odd.
Mira Parker well maybe she likes how it works for her, she looks pretty good
S B I don’t care what people do to their own body in the privacy of their own home. Have at it. But she’s filming her routine for countless people to see and uses her company and esthetician background to imply she knows what she’s talking about when she doesn’t. That’s my issue, I don’t want people thinking that’s based on any evidence because it’s not. And the filters and lights most of these videos use make it so you really have no idea what her skin looks like.
The mind-blowing thing I learnt is *Dr. Barbara Strum isn't even a dermatologist or even an aesthetician for that matter, she has her doctorate in orthopaedics* 🤦
She, I bet, just sends products to the celebrities for free for advertising!
And she doesn't believe in SPF aswell
@@footyfan101ful ha! What? That's probably bcz she wants people to screw their skin while using her products as in not keep it protected, so they end up using more of her products just to undo the damage and then it's a consumerism cycle. She's a Guru at coning people I feel!
@@cosmic_lotus_eater exactly!! Theres a risk of getting cancer!!
She doesn't even have an MD at all -it's a PhD.
She is not a Doctor. She went to a "technical school" in Germany studied Osteopathy and she uses Dr. in her name only in the U.S because it's not regulated. She doesn't have PhD as well
SO happy celebrity reactions are back, but I do hope they'll be more Derm reactions to normal people routines too because those were so educational! (And both Derms were such sweeties!)
I always have to remind myself to not “thumbs down” because I don’t like what the person doing their skin routine says lol
I know that’s not your fault!
I love that you said “I'm not pregnant anymore" with a little dance ❤️
tvloover80 It feels so good to have my body back to myself (sort of since I’m breastfeeding). 🤗
I love that Susan is so honest and genuine, we need more people like you Susan !
Welcome back Susan! You look good! I'm so glad that you did a reaction video to Anastasia's routine. I watched a video where Nicole Scherzinger mentioned that moisturizer where they take your blood an incorporate it into the moisturizer. I'd never heard of it before that. It is interesting though
Emoretta Robinson Glad to be back!
I gave up the makeup wipes because of you! I’m so happy I found you, can’t imagine if I kept on without knowing what I do now...good thing I’m only 22 haha
Sandra Cortes This makes me so happy! 😘
at this point, I'm convinced these drugstore brands pay to be mentioned in these videos, a face wipe is the only believable step for these celebrities to incorporate into their routines
Brenda Guerrero That’s a really good point. Even if they don’t understand why makeup wipes are not ideal, I imagine they would use high-end wipes at the very least. It’s just really difficult for me to believe that someone like her who, even if she doesn’t go out and buy her own skincare, you know she gets sent a shit ton of high-end skincare that she could easily use. I’m with you, I just don’t believe she uses those Aveeno wipes in real life.
Right?! She uses all these expensive products but wants us to believe that she uses Aveeno makeup wipes... suuuuure.
@@pollyseifikar7751 seriously though.. A billionaire using 3$ make up wipes. No way
MrsStinnnsfire right?!? I don’t even use makeup wipes anymore- lol normal human.
@@barciabarciabarcia17 exactly! They always feel cheap and soapy and I hate the feeling it leaves on my skin. Thank God for k-beauty and Susan for showing us the right way, lol
The darker skin tone line targets hyperpigmentation as well so thats why she uses it :)
Felix W exactly!!
I love you Susan, but the alkaline water talk is absolute bs...
Definitely could be. 🤣
It is the same bullshit as make up wipes in skin care. I know it is hard to admit that we are wrong, but please, just look it up for yourself and at least do not advertise it to your impressionable audience before checking it thoroughly, just like you used to use make up wipes in the past and now you dont because you became educated.
Yes. We use makeup wipes because... they are convenient, less messy, and removes Covergirl outlast lipstick. I use Biore facial cloths [I only need one, because they are so good}, and facial cleanser. Best I have tried so far. Followed by Amorepacific treatment toner, a lifting serum {So far I am surprisingly liking Mary Kays timewise repair serum. I know... It really works}, and Tatcha moisturiser.
Anastasia really doesn’t know what she’s talking about haha! but sometimes I feel like “go to bed” is just a series to advertise products.
you really are in every skin care video ahahha
you're under every video I see, no matter what it is about. skincare, kpop, etc etc etc
Yeah, I see this series as pure advertisement and entertainment. I hope that most people aren't actually taking skincare advice and product reccommendations from these celebrities.
Paris Hilton’s skin care routine!
That would be Amsterdam
It's so good to have you back, Susan!! So excited to see another reaction video. Also: could you *please* include outtakes in subsequent videos? They're hilarious 🤣
Kendall Stark Haha! Carly and I have so many funny talks while we film these. 🤣
@@SusanYara the fact you have commented on my comment has made my week!!!!!
could you do a video where you talk about the different skincare products (serums, acids, oils, etc.) and when to use them during your routine?? this would be incredibly helpful!!
Please react to Gwenyth Paltrow’s GoTo Bed With Me! It’s an older one but I really want to hear your thoughts on her routine.
Forget the celebs, I think we should submit our skincare videos for Susan to react to 😂
Darren Clark she does that
Amanda Wright oh I didn’t realise
can you please react to Jeffree Star's anti-aging routine ?! I wanna know if it's really true sis
Do you have the link to this video?
I love him and he uses makeup wipes. Which makes me die inside. I don't want to watch him getting roasted omg
@@christieharrison4331 just write to TH-cam It will pop up
I saw a thumbnail for one of his videos with shane and he has forehead wrinkles despite getting botox and only being in his early 30s so i doubt it’s working lol
Scarlett Rose Ok I just want to clarify that he has no botox or fillers, he has just lip injections on his face. He said it before
I feel like if you’re seeing a high end facial esthetician and getting a massage often you can do whatever tf you like to your skin and you’d be fine lol, but for the rest of us peasants I die a little on the inside watching those wipes lol
Honestly not true at all! The occasional treatment can’t make up for a lack of proven ingredients used daily. Sunscreen and retinoids as well as proper cleansing and moisturizing are a must and you can’t make up for neglecting that. Many facials just needlessly aggravate the skin too.
Please review the Dr Barbara Sturm vid
Susan, your eyeshape has me mesmerized. They are beautiful! Great vid, as always 🤗. Loved the little “blooper” at the end 😂.
Aesthetician here .. this is something that I've seen with other people in this field of work. I'm a very young aesthi (turning 21 this month) and I put a lot of effort and time in educating myself and keeping up with everything that's got to do with skin. What I've seen with other (and most of the time older) people who work/used to work as an aesthetician is that they're very gridlocked on what they believe in. Obviously this doesn't apply to everyone and there's aesthis that are older than me that also know that with a profession like ours the most important thing is to keep learning but there's also some that will never read up new data and research results about skin care and ingredients and they will always think that what they learned x years ago is the truth. I feel like that is what happened to Anastasia. She also comes across like she has lost (if she ever had it) her spark and passion about skin care and just buys the most expensive stuff because she can. It's sad but things like this happen.
I had the notification bell turned on just to see this video ASAP! Thank you Susan, another awesome video and your channel inspired me to make my own skincare channel🔔
Roast mode: im excited and I haven’t even started watching
Susan i looooooove your videos. They are not only educating but also soooo fun! You're a star! ♥️♥️♥️
I’m very confused about her video!!! It seems like she was moving a little fast especially with her cleanser! 🤷🏽♀️ idk maybe that’s just me!!!
the editors of that video did a very poor job.
she used toner AFTER wipes and BEFORE cleanser ??? super weird.
Noooooo Susan! alkaline water isn’t good for you and a healthy body maintains the proper pH all by itself
There’s nobody else for these celebrities than Dr. Barbara Sturm?
Glad you’re back. I love watching your videos & I’ve learned so much about skincare because of you. 💕
She's getting the products for free thats why. Darker skin tone is newer so she is just using their newest release that they sent her. Love your videos!!
I have just discovered your channel and spent the entire day binge watching reactions. I recently started seriously looking after my skin and your videos are so helpful!
and OMG, you are so pretty!
I have literally commented on every video and post of yours hoping you'd do her!! I'm so happy hahaha
Welcome back Susan!!! Can you review Dr Sturm’s next? I haven’t watched it yet but I want to know what u think for a person that has her own skincare line.. and it’s very expensive too 🤪
A cleanser made for darker skin tone. Girl I’m screaming 😂
Myles Spears ASMR I thought I misheard it when I watched it. But nope, she really is looking like that, using a cleanser for darker skin.
Only a rich old white lady would create such a product
Lmao yeah it’s the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard 😂 like whoever made that a thing is in a different world 💀
Myles Spears ASMR it is supposed to treat hyperpigmentation which is often a problem for darker skin tones
heyayup omg 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂💄
Last time I was this early kylie skin didn’t exist yet
those were good times tho
Rise and shine!!!!
Interesting though that PRP is inflammatory and Anastasia talked about an anti inflammatory diet 😑
Growth factors (manufactured or our own) are efficacious as messengers even if physically they don’t penetrate so this is an intriguing product for sure.
La Mer is actually great.....it’s just WAY overpriced lol
And “smells so good” is so so bad. Ha!
She’s a beautiful lady. Fun to watch💜
Happy post-pregnancy!! 🥰
But doesn’t the La Mer moisturizer contain mineral oil? I’m semi-okay with it in something that’s not staying on my skin, like a cleansing balm (but, even in that, I tend to avoid it), but not in something like a moisturizer that’s going to stay on my skin. It’s a cheap ingredient that is problematic for a lot of people’s skin, so I was really surprised to see it in the iconic La Mer moisturizer. I used it for a while and was completely unimpressed.
Keep in mind that celebrities can also afford top of the line skin treatments from dermatologists and estheticians on a regular basis, so she can probably undo the damage from those makeup wipes better than most of us.
crochetqueenmd Also fillers, Botox, etc. No shade to anyone who gets it done, but I hate when people assume it’s just the skincare products that celebrities use (aka la mer and Dr. Barbara sturm)
That’s what I think, they go to the esthetician or whatever who fixes their clogged pores or sells them more product or treatments. Everyone’s happy! Except for us watching (and the environment!)
1 million way to go more to come for the quality of videos u produce 😍😍
I love these reaction videos and the ones with derms also, please keep them coming Susan !!! Ps. You look gorgeous Susan
I feel a little better about my routine now. Lmao. It’s not the biggest budget but I know what every product is doing and where it should go. And I don’t use wipes EVERRRR.
The annoying part is that these people are so wealthy that they could have the least sensical skincare routine and it wouldn't matter that much because they can afford to regularly see estheticians and dermatologists to correct whatever skin issues they have.
Finally! I've been waiting for a new video in this series, so thank you. And, congratulations!
It says a lot of about how long ago she was a skin tech that she says oils should go before water.......
omg i cant believe you almost skipped this one as soon as it came out i couldnt wait for you to come back!
Even though I know that the Barbra Strum product line is highly expensive, I really don’t think they are worth the price IMO. They are glorified versions of drugstore and The Ordinary products based off of the ingredients I’ve seen on Sephora, especially because of the fragrance in them which I mean cmon they don’t have a functionality in skincare 🤷🏻♀️ Love Anastasia tho, she’s a legend. I am a person with sensitive skin and I just don’t agree with fragrance being in anything that goes on my face.
Jennifer Maldonado 💓👏🏼👏🏼
Sturms products are fragrance free :)
Felix W The Ordinary is fragrance free 🤣
Felix W to my knowledge anything that has any “fruit oils” or to more specific sweet almond oil can be very sensitizing to people like me with sensitive skin. Yes her line doesn’t contain parfum/fragrances but for me I wished it didn’t have the fruit oils. 🤷🏻♀️
The look of disappointment on Susan's face when she pulled out the makeup wipes...
I love your scientific approach to skincare and almost agree with everything you said. But alkaline water? Seriously?
Our body doesn't have only one PH. Blood for example has around 7,4 while muscles even tend to be more acidic with lower PH. Our bodys are very good at holding these PH levels where they are and that is a good thing. Making the PH of the blood higher than 8 could cause serious health problems and even death.
The only PH level that we can change in our body by drinking alkaline water is the PH of our urin. Thats because our kidneys take H+ or OH- atoms/molecules out of the rest of our system to hold the physiological PH levels in specific parts of the body on a constant level. Resulting in more alkaline or acidic urin.
So if you really wanted to change the PH of your blood, you would want to interfere with your kidneys. Which is essentially a very very bad idea....
I swear I saw this comment before?!
Real Deal Its true, so why not? ;)
Same thoughts. I like Susan, but the alkaline water statement really suprised me! Anything alkaline (or acidic for that matter) is immediately buffered by your body- bicarb production from the renal system, HCl in the stomach, respiratory drive mediated by CO2 receptors. Drinking alkaline water isn't harmful, just an expensive drink. It takes a serious medical condition that overcomes the body's natural compensatory mechanisms, such as DKA, respiratory failure, sepsis, renal failure, to substantially alter your pH.
Congratulations Susan! Also thank you for the great content!
Omg yes finally! Thank you Susan
When she pulled out Aveeno makeup wipes ... 😮 This whole thing blows my mind.
I tend to avoid fragrance when I can but I do use some products with fragrance. Like you said - pick your battles. For me, if the product isn't enjoyable to apply or use, I don't always feel motivated to apply them on a regular.
i understand sometimes we need to use wipes in some occasions,like travelling and so on...but in other cases its useless..i love my cleanser and water. always.
Before I even watched this I am just so excited she filmed this.
I'm sorry I don't trust anyone who demonstrates a skin tutorial with all the same brand. That just doesn't happen unless you are being sponsored.
Darcy L ikr. If she is using her true skin care routine. It would be products from different brands like myself. From cleanser to sunscreen are frim different brands
Darcy L my whole skincare is from the same brand🤷🏼♀️ it works for me that way...but yeah i get it when celebrities do that
I agree with Susan On the makeup wipes. I only ever used makeup wipes once, and due to the continuous rubbing and tugging my skin was so inflamed and irritated. That one time was enough for me to never touch a wipe again.
Doesn’t your skin have a limit of how much it can absorb? Like at some point she’s just piling on product and it’s not doing anything
😆😆
That's what I was thinking. 3 serums at one time, even if you "cocktail" them. This is what my dermatologist told me.
Congratulations on 1 millions subscribers Mixed Makeup! 😉We have learned a lot thanks you! 😊
why is she using all these darker skin tone formulations...she's the palest person I've ever seen
Lily Saker
Wdym? Is there such a thing?
Victoria xo darker skin products are made with poc in mind. The products I can use may be too harsh for lighter skin.
Jessica A
Hmmm interesting
Lily Saker probably to target hyperpigmentation, which both dark and light skin people can have.
I'm guessing it's what she was gifted
Susan what foundation are you wearing? Your skin looks amazing!
Is she using Barbara sturms product for darker Skin? She is Pale as f***.
Im so confused.............
Vila Uhlala there are very few ingredients that are specific to skin tone
I think you hit the nail on the head when you said skin care is supposed to be self indulgent. I am using glow recipe and herbivore, neither of which I would call cheap and I’m not wealthy. But it’s something little I can do for myself to enhance my mood and give me something to look forward to at the beginning and end of my day. ❤️
Pls do dr strum she is so wierd and i would loveeee to see your face and hear your thoughts susan !!!!! Glad your back ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Welcome back! Congratulations on the little one!! I would love to see a review on Timeless Skincare and Rodan&Fields. Also, question can I use a glycolic acid cream along with a retinol serum?
Eventually I stopped using makeup wipes because of you
I'm trying to stop using them too after I heard on the radio how many hundreds of thousands of wipes wind up just sitting in landfills, unable to break down. And they make my skin sting half the time anyway. Double cleansing is working better for me.
Omg you look so good!! Love your personality! Your like the only person I agree with everything when it comes to skin care
Lera Potapova 😘😘😘
@Susan Yara what about using micellar water with cotton circles? Wouldn't that be bad as well?
I would like to know this too
Jorge Herrera They sell reusable ones. You can use soft microfiber towels. ☺️
Susan's back!!! 😍 the next skin care reaction we all know already 😊.
Biggest tip of the day. Throw away the makeup wipes! Lol
You should do a skincare dupe video of high end vs drugstore. Lots of products contain the same ingredients so this would be interesting to see alternatives!
Esthetics student here.... I’m baffled she’s using Aveeno makeup wipes with all the other high quality products... Also, cringed every single time she used product on her neck because she was wiping down. 🙈🙈
Always UP, jeez.
This video pretty much sums up why I appreciate The Ordinary brand so much!
Susan I love you but I don't understand why people think alkaline water balances their internal pH. you have a whole acid base homeostasis system in your body that does it for you lol
I use makeup wipes as the first step ONLY when removing makeup so i do not use them daily
I have special cleansers afterwards and they are different for eyes and face :)
Alkaline water is nonsense. Your stomach acid pH is roughly 2 anyway
TBH I agree with you Susan, when you have the money you just do whatever you want. Honestly I watch those videos and yours just for the fun, because I really do enjoy watching them, some of us would do the same or worse with the money. All skincare’s are different... that’s all
"you should get a facial" okay let's all be rich
Vicky Papa You don’t have to be rich to get a facial
Amanda Leigh no but it is a privilege and first world thing
Liz Meows How is it a privilege?
Amanda Leigh because there are literally people out there who can’t afford to spend any extra money on their skin. It is a privilege to get a facial when there’s people struggling to just survive.
@@AmandaLeighS perhaps you may want to pay for more important things like bills it is not easy for the average person to spend money on a luxury like this
You have a new subscriber!! You had me when you said you can’t understand why people use makeup whipes! I have tried to convince people of this for the longest time. I honestly thought I was on my own because it looks like everyone on TH-cam is using them! Thank you!!!! 🙏🙋🏼♀️😁
Susan, finally! It felt like FOREVER. These have been missing from my life.
MrsStinnnsfire 🤗🤗🤗
Susan, do you consider the Olay daily facial cloths to be a makeup wipe? I adore them, but wondering if they're as bad as the dreaded makeup wipe.
How is lemon a replacement for alkaline water when it’s acidic?
so glad ur back, i was having withdrawals! can you do Dr Sturm next?
I've only used makeup wiped once in my life. Everyone talked about makeup wipes so I thought I'd try them. After trying them once, I realised that:
1-my skin feels like I tried to peel it off my face
2-it doesn't even clean the face that well!!!
Therefore I agree that makeup wipes are a nono😂🙅
I am definitely guilty of using a make up wipe 😩but only on those very lazy nights and they are compostable! Most of the time I use a cleaning oil. DHC is my go-to at the moment.
LOVE THIS SERIES!!
That look in the thumbnail... Can't mean anything good ! I'm ready for the tea 🍵
Victoria Simoes yep! I saw that thumbnail and moved rooms to make sure I was super comfortable for this one.
