@@irinareina it sounds like you may be suffering from trans epidermal water loss and that is why you were having acne a lot of people think that acne has to do with oily skin you can have acne if you were extremely dry as well that’s why I had my acne so I’m assuming when you used those silicone patches after you’ve done your skin care that’s sealing everything in and not allowing anything to evaporate you’re doing the right things just focus on moisturizing your skin and keeping your skin barrier health! ❤
Neutrogena makes a Hydro Boost face mask that comes in two gel pieces and covers the whole face. I have not used it but it looks similar in videos. Maybe it can be used overnight, but you would likely still need the topper face mask that goes around your head or on your ears to keep it in place still
I have used those. I need to buy the masks she uses to keep on those Neutrogena ones. They work well though. They just slide around like. A drunken slug
@@irinareina based on your close up of the area that the patch was covering & not covering convinced me to add these to my cart too! Thx for this video, it blew my mind 🤯 Your skin looks great, good luck on your PCOS journey!
It took me so long to fix my skin by healing the skin barrier. For years I tried every product (same as you-red light, Tretinoin, Paula’s Choice, BHA, the Ordinary chemical exfoliant, slugging with Vaseline) NOTHING worked. Finally, I started using a gentle cleanser, La Roche Posay Cicaplast as a moisturizer, a sulfur mask 3X week, and silicon patches to heal. I feel mislead from all those years in high school/college using harsh benzoyl peroxide and chemical exfoliants, which just made everything worse.
If your skin barrier is damaged, go very simple with your skincare routine, try to find products with Ceramide or Allantoin, and like she said, never ever use exfoliating actives until your skin is healed. Hope it helps ❤ Edit: oh and opt for physical sunscreen instead of chemical sunscreen!
you can use actives just not exfoliating acids and retinol. Peptides are active but can help heal your skin. low concentration vitamin c can help healing so is hyaluronic acid.
don’t; listen to your dermatologist. listening to a medical professional who has personally assessed your specific skin needs is always a better idea than going against their recommendations and taking advice from some stranger on the internet about what’s best for YOUR skin
AGREE! Had problems with my skin barrier since about 10 month, I tried cica, panthenol, peptide, hyaluronic acid products, also rosacea related products with zinc... (not all at the same time tho xD) Nothing worked right. And then I picked up a random Ceramide cream, it was about 8 dollar on sale... AND IT WORKED, finally! That also was an instant result, my skin was soooo nice right after the first use, I was shocked. Now I use it every night as last step! If you have skin problems, you should give it a try!
Girlll. I used to watch your russian videos when I was younger. I am a russian speaker myself. So happy to stumble upon your channel after a long time good luck with your journey 🍀😊
I think its important to mention that the thick cream isn't the right move for every skintype. I for example have Oily but still dry and sensitive skin wich is not compatible with thick cream. Instead you want to use a very light or even oil free gel. But appart from that I think this mask is a great way to let the moisturising get even deeper in your skin.
Yes! I agree, needed to mention that the texture can vary depending on skin type. You can even use the patches without anything, it is still working great!!!
maybe your skin is dehydrated? also, how it's her resposiblity to mention every detail about a cream in case it doesn't work for someone? she just used what works for her. you find out what works for you. so silly
@@evital0o0oThat's not silly at all. A lot of people will use whatever worked for someone else, just because they saw the amazing results. Some people are aware what is really going to do goods to their skin, but some will follow blindly and then blame the creator if no results show
You’re so right i also have that, but my skin doctor told me its because i have rosacea… maybe you also have a skin condition then? I really like light products, i can recommend products from beauty of joseon korean skincare
This makes sense! I am post acne and the amount of actives i used to treat it has damaged my skin barrier and cause my eczema to flare up. After a point i gave up and just started slugging to treat my immediate eczema problem. And while it was messy it helped so much, with zero actives, just a heavy moisturizer under vaseline. This mask will be less messier
slugging is applying a thick occlusive product (usually petrolatum based- vaseline, for example) as your final step in your PM skincare routine. it essentially seals in and amplifies whatever products you applied underneath it. it can be great for locking in hydration overnight and helping to heal your skin barrier, but you have to be careful to not use active ingredients when you do it (retinoids especially, for example) because amplifying the affects of those on your skin is dangerous and can very easily lead to irritation
Spray a thin layer of hydraging mist containing glycerine (sticky) between the mask nd the silicone patches and it will not solide anymore because they will stick together ;)
Improper application of Tretinoi always results in desastres skin barrier, less is best, start slowing, stop other activities, sandwich method and usind a barrier around eyes, nostrils and mouth with CeraVe ointment or Eucerin can minimize any peeling
I ran into the same problem, getting random breakouts that were beyond stubborn and NOTHING would make them go away. I finally got a face steamer and use spot treatments with tea tree oil when I do get an occasional pimple or two. The streamer is a game changer!! I also put a few drops of tea tree oil on a cotton pad and stick it inside the steamer compartment that is for warming towels and it totally makes a difference.
I was just buying cheap Amazon one and it broke in one month, so I use steam room now instead, it works for the whole body. You can find it as “portable sauna” 😌
I am hesitant to trying this because acne forms more easily in anaerobic environments with no oxygen, and there is no oxygen under your mask, so possibly it heals your skin a lot but also at the same time could increase acne
Yeah! I agree, I think it could be more damaging than beneficial if you have a lot of active acne. This is really just to heal your barrier and post acne. I have only few active spots so it worked for me
This is the effect I got when I started using baby oil lol. It was accidental as well. Now I just use cleanser and baby oil, and it has worked actual wonders.
Tru swapping out the baby oil for castor oil. Must be hexon free, organic, in an amber colored bottle. Mix s small amount in your hands with your moisturizer.
This is great! Hyram has mentioned in his videos that you should water-base cleanse after your oil cleanse to get your skin really clean, remove all sunscreen and makeup.
Honey the older one gets the less double cleanse you can do. I used to do it when i was younger now in my late 30s my face stings after a double cleanse. It’s not a one size fits all. You should also do your research and not totally depend on what an influencer says as everyone’s skin is different. Often the influencer is telling you what works for them or they are paid to influence you.
Wow! This is incredible. Definitely I will buy and try the patches. Thank you so much Irina for this info. You are beautiful 🥰and speaks so good. I wish you all the best! 😘
I use adapalene and I find it much more gentle, but still effective. Strongest retinoid you can get over the counter. Closely related to tretinoin chemically, but it is different. Marketed for acne, still affective for anti-aging. Been using for 10 years.
@@Hiimjess8 yeah I tried that when I finally accepted that I can’t tolerate tretinoin. I guess by that point, my barrier was to disrupted for adapalene. I can’t even tolerate low percentages of retinal, even after months of no use of any active ingredients. It’s great when it works, but it definitely can damage your skin long-term when you don’t be careful. Guys remember Irritation is not necessarily a sign that it works.
I think probably it also help cause it creates a barrier with external things like the pillow etc... that could make bacteria worse. Also nivea in the blue tin is noce but i recommend to try it on some spots for a while cause to some people it can be occlusive and make acne way worse. For sensitive/eczema/rosacea is good but acne not sure🤔 From what I know avène has a good thick cream but i forgot the name Also, can you use the hairdrier to dry them?
Yes! I finally feel comfortable putting my face on the pillow, I change pillowcases everyday, but it still feels wierd, especially with night cream, but it’s my ocd things I tried to blow on patches, but they are flying away 😂 you have to dry them sticky side up, so other side is not sticky and not secured. maybe on very low settings and cool air, because hot can damage them I think
@@irinareina omg yes i didnt consider the flying part i can already imagine them flying away sticking to the floor than having to wash it again Oh no 😂

Боже мой, это то, к чему я шла сама, но усовершенствованное! Пробовала кремы под силиконовую маску, но лишь на полчаса. Это действительно лучшее для кожи на мой взгляд тоже🎉
@@irinareina not 100% silicone but there are a lot of gels that have a very high procentage of silicone and precisely dimethacone, especially scar gels that are actually just silicone based with some healing ingredients.
Huh this really fits the trend of going to sleep “ugly” to wake up more “beautiful” 😂 i’m into it! the rope idea is great and i have a reusable mask just like that (too tight to wear since it tugs on my ears too) so i need to try that. 😊
you should also add Supercharged overnight cream. You put it on overnight and you sleep with it, and the next morning you wake up, im not kidding when i say it made my face sooo smooth and even the little bumps on my nose disappeared
I healed my skin accidently by trying nasal spray as a "cream". Also tried everything else over the last years - nothing worked! But since I read about dexpanthenol and vit. B5 (pantothenic acid) and it's healing benefits for acne, I tried my Bepanthen nasal spray on tiny spots that didn't wanted to heal in a long time. Didn't expected anything from this experiment. And the next day, I could remove the upper layer of skin and a shiny rose skin tone was under it. 😮 Since then, I use this spray right after cleaning and toning in the whole face. Nothing more. And my skin is getting better and smoother and softer every day ☺️ This would definitely NOT work with any other nasal spray, since this one is formulated very minimalistic. And the dexpanthenol is for sure the most important ingredient. Perhaps I am deficient in this nutrient? Next purchase at amazon will be vit.B5-capsules ✌🏼
I had a MASSIVE breakout of inflamed cystic acne from orally taking Collagen Peptides!!!! Took me weeks to figure it out. My skin healed just days after I stopped using it.
Do you think it’s gonna work with cicaplast b5 gel? Because I have the same scars as you on my forehead and some comedones on my jawline( I think it’s because I used the Clinique cleansing balm that I discovered that had an ingredient that is highly comedogenic 😢😭) it seems like nothing works for my skin and everytime I use something it just makes the situation progressively worse
Oh!!! That was my biggest fear when I started. You can cover them with something light without actually touching them (like those korean covers to protect food from flies)😅. I like to put them into the drawer so it would be not in the open area 😌
Thanks for the video I'm definitely interested in getting one:) The one thing I'm worried about is if this can create milia like slugging with vaseline can
Can I do this without the patches? I mean just the silicon mask on top? Have you tried it that way before? 🥰 And what are the additional benefits of the patches over just using the mask. As I have understood they are both made out of silicon right? Thank you for your reply ❤️❤️❤️
I've used just the mask before (usually sold as "reusable silicon sheet mask"), and you do get some gaps depending on the unique contours of your face. So it would still mostly work, but you wouldn't have quite as good of "coverage."
Hi! I tried only mask but it’s definitely not the same. It does have gaps, especially in some areas, so you get you cream go inside your skin, but don’t get this glow effect
@@irinareina Hi 🥰 thank you soo much for your response and input. I’m getting the whole set and can’t wait for it to arrive 😍 Hopefully it works on my skin as well
Hey girlie I’m here from the glass hair routine. You used a serum in the beginning of the routine and another serum at the end. Is there a reason, and is it okay to use the same one at the beginning for both?
First to get rid of acne start with the gut.. proper eating habits and clean sheets. Women putting oils in their hair will get acne on their back, cheeks and forehead. Get a non comedogenic oil.
It's a bit more complex than that actually, a lot of us have hormonal problems that are complicated to balance. I have been eating healthy for a long time, never sleep with oil in my hair, change sheets regularly etc etc. Yes I drink enough. Acne is not that easy to get rid of for a lot of us
Ok so I just saw your whole video. Thank you so much for sharing. My question is when or how often do you use your actives. Like for example, tretinoin, vit C, red light therapy. Maybe do those during the day? Or do tretinoin at night twice a week but don’t use the silicone patches those nights?
I actually stopped doing activities for now. But if I would need to add them, it would be one night of active, next night of healing with patches, then night of active again…etc
I wonder whether it would work for my skin, usually when I block my face (i.e. mask during covid/ sun screen) I break out. And my main problem is that it creates hyperpigmentation and I'm stuck with that scar forever :( Has anyone came across this too?
I was breaking out from COVID masks. But it also because of the environment. I think if you wash your face and wash patches before it won’t have bacteria to spread. You can also use high frequency wand or blue LED lights to kill the acne causing bacteria before applying the patches. But I also heard that dermatologists don’t recommend using “slugging” with very oily skin, because pores can clog. So if your skin is very oily, maybe it’s better use salicylic acid
The only thing that disturbs me is the line of demarcation left at the end of the patch (near the under eye), I am very susceptible to those line and I am afraid that after having them every night they can become permanent. After how much time did yours replenish and go away? Could they be considered similar to sleeping position lines (which can become permanent wrinkles)?
What do you think about Cold-Pressed Rosehip Seed Oil under the mask?? The oil does WONDERS on my skin overnight as it is.. with acne prone skin, I wonder if this would help even more !! 😊
@@s.m.8498do you think it would be too heavy for under the mask? I feel like the Kheils gel moisturizer I use wouldn’t be moisturizing enough for something like this. What are your thoughts on gel moisturizer vs the oil for under this mask??
I need to try this… I work at Macys and have tried so many products since working there. I think my skin barrier is pretty messed up. Thank you 🙏🏻 curious to try Kiehl’s products in combination with the silicon masks
nice, very good 2 know. yer skin really looks great. nice brows also.. have u considered laminating them so it can emphasize yer beauty even more with yer beautiful skin... well congrats on yer discovery.
got the one mentioned in the description: really didn’t work for me. the silicone never seemed to stick, also drying them sticky side up made them flytraps for dust and tiny particles. i love this idea thought but those specific silicone mask wasn’t the best!
thanks for sharing your experience 😌 for me silicone is not really sticky too, that’s why I secure it with the mask, I don’t know how people sleep with only patches on their faces 😅 And about dust it is true, if you live it for a long time outside it can become dirty 😬 that’s why I dry mine in the drawer or cover them with something, even though mine does not get dusty (maybe because I have humid weather) But I agree, this technique definitely needs a lot of improvement 😌
It is 😌 I use it twice a week now, sometimes more often if I feel that my skin needs more. This is temporary results, so as long as I use it regularly my skin feels good 😌
да, я уже посмотрела состав, там есть кометогенные ингредиенты. Но не много, я думаю, что он только для жирной кожи не подойдёт, а остальным будет нормально
I use them for 3 days in a row, then take a break for some days. You have to clean them before each use, but at some point, you probably need to replace them. They can break if you are not careful 😌
It kind of makes sense cuz your skin doesn't touch your pillow, the skin care doesn't come off, I will definetly try this
Yeah, it’s like perfect face prevention 😌
Some people with easily irritated skin change pillowcases nightly. Also lots of product encourages irritants to attach to the skin.
Switching to mulberry silk pillowcases cleared my acne. It was life changing.
Bonus: If a burglar breaks in at night, this mask will scare the devil outta them! Run, burglar, run!
🤣🤣🤣
This is hilarious 😂 my uncle uses that phrase a lot!

The difference is crazy! They need to make one giant whole face silicon patch so there's no gaps.
Neutrogena makes a Hydro Boost face mask that comes in two gel pieces and covers the whole face. I have not used it but it looks similar in videos. Maybe it can be used overnight, but you would likely still need the topper face mask that goes around your head or on your ears to keep it in place still
Yeah! You can find similar mask, but they won’t be reusable. Another examples are Biodance Korean mask and Derm All Matrix sheet mask!

Would it work to use only the top piece that keeps it together?

You and esp your smile are gorgeous!!!
🤍 thank you
Thank you my skin has been getting so bad lately ,i think its amixture of diet and skincare but this is quite useful
I am happy it was helpful 🤍
Боже мой, это то, к чему я шла сама, но усовершенствованное!
Пробовала кремы под силиконовую маску, но лишь на полчаса.
Это действительно лучшее для кожи на мой взгляд тоже🎉
А какие кремы вы пробовали ?
А прыщи под маской не появились ?
😌😌
Actually there is a lot of research on silicone for the skin if you dont wanna get the mask you can use liquid silicone
Do you mean alginate face masks? Or are there actually liquid silicone for skin?
@@irinareina not 100% silicone but there are a lot of gels that have a very high procentage of silicone and precisely dimethacone, especially scar gels that are actually just silicone based with some healing ingredients.
Oh, okay, thank you, I will research about that
Huh this really fits the trend of going to sleep “ugly” to wake up more “beautiful” 😂 i’m into it! the rope idea is great and i have a reusable mask just like that (too tight to wear since it tugs on my ears too) so i need to try that. 😊
The uglier the better 🤣
you should also add Supercharged overnight cream. You put it on overnight and you sleep with it, and the next morning you wake up, im not kidding when i say it made my face sooo smooth and even the little bumps on my nose disappeared
Is it Foreo cream?
I healed my skin accidently by trying nasal spray as a "cream". Also tried everything else over the last years - nothing worked! But since I read about dexpanthenol and vit. B5 (pantothenic acid) and it's healing benefits for acne, I tried my Bepanthen nasal spray on tiny spots that didn't wanted to heal in a long time. Didn't expected anything from this experiment. And the next day, I could remove the upper layer of skin and a shiny rose skin tone was under it. 😮 Since then, I use this spray right after cleaning and toning in the whole face. Nothing more. And my skin is getting better and smoother and softer every day ☺️
This would definitely NOT work with any other nasal spray, since this one is formulated very minimalistic. And the dexpanthenol is for sure the most important ingredient. Perhaps I am deficient in this nutrient? Next purchase at amazon will be vit.B5-capsules ✌🏼
That is crazy story, thank you for sharing 🤍
Reuse the straps for respiratory masks for your silicone masks - the ones health care workers used to prevent the same pinchiness behind the ears
sounds like a great idea, thanks 😌
Put castor oil and then massage in penaten zinc cream before those masks !
oh, I feel like oil overnight can be a little too much 🤔 I should research it. Does it work for you? 😌
I had a MASSIVE breakout of inflamed cystic acne from orally taking Collagen Peptides!!!! Took me weeks to figure it out. My skin healed just days after I stopped using it.
wow, i am so happy to hear you found what was the reason 😌 it’s crazy, maybe it was sort of allergic reaction
Рина, ты просто лучшая ❤

Thank you so much for this video. I am going to try this method. Clean and easy. 🎉
glad you enjoyed it 😌
Incredible! I'm definitely interested to try😍👍
🤍
@@irinareina 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Do you think it’s gonna work with cicaplast b5 gel? Because I have the same scars as you on my forehead and some comedones on my jawline( I think it’s because I used the Clinique cleansing balm that I discovered that had an ingredient that is highly comedogenic 😢😭) it seems like nothing works for my skin and everytime I use something it just makes the situation progressively worse
I think it should work, but it is all really about testing. We are all so unique
GUYS IM GONNA ORDER AND TELL YOU HOW IT WOKRS FOR ME WITH UPDATES!!
I think I saw some updates already in the comments 😌
This seems great but I’m worried about dust getting on the patches while drying them :/
Oh!!! That was my biggest fear when I started.
You can cover them with something light without actually touching them (like those korean covers to protect food from flies)😅. I like to put them into the drawer so it would be not in the open area 😌
Thanks for the video I'm definitely interested in getting one:)
The one thing I'm worried about is if this can create milia like slugging with vaseline can
Oh! I don’t know, but if slugging can, this silicone patches probably can too. I think it’s basically the same process, just less messy
Being single can be great sometimes
😂 well… when you go sleep looking like that for sure, but people around me already got accustomed, this mask is the least wierd thing I do 😂
This is genius ❤❤❤❤
🤭🤍
Can I do this without the patches? I mean just the silicon mask on top?
Have you tried it that way before? 🥰
And what are the additional benefits of the patches over just using the mask. As I have understood they are both made out of silicon right?
Thank you for your reply ❤️❤️❤️
I've used just the mask before (usually sold as "reusable silicon sheet mask"), and you do get some gaps depending on the unique contours of your face. So it would still mostly work, but you wouldn't have quite as good of "coverage."
@@hiddenmutant thank you for your response 🥰
It totally makes sense. I will just get both and see how it works
Hi! I tried only mask but it’s definitely not the same. It does have gaps, especially in some areas, so you get you cream go inside your skin, but don’t get this glow effect
@@irinareina Hi 🥰 thank you soo much for your response and input. I’m getting the whole set and can’t wait for it to arrive 😍
Hopefully it works on my skin as well
I thought you were Hailey Steinfield in the thumbnail
😅
Hey girlie I’m here from the glass hair routine. You used a serum in the beginning of the routine and another serum at the end. Is there a reason, and is it okay to use the same one at the beginning for both?
Hi! It is totally fine! I just wanted to show different product options! Most serums and hair oils kind of behaving the same way 😌
I love your channel 😍😍
🤍🤍🤍😌
Thank you very much. I think I will try this too
Just ordered :D I have to try this! ^ ^
Hope you like it!😌
Update?
Thanks Irina for sharing these useful tips! Could I ask what the top layer mask (on top of silicone patches) is for?
It seems the top layer mask is simply there to hold all the smaller silicone patches in place.
Just to hold the patches so they would not stay on the pillow at night 😅
great info thank you
Thank u soo much.. I'll try it and come back after some days... Trusting u sister💙🤞
🤍 make sure to clean patches properly to prevent bacteria from spreading
First to get rid of acne start with the gut.. proper eating habits and clean sheets.
Women putting oils in their hair will get acne on their back, cheeks and forehead. Get a non comedogenic oil.
It's a bit more complex than that actually, a lot of us have hormonal problems that are complicated to balance. I have been eating healthy for a long time, never sleep with oil in my hair, change sheets regularly etc etc. Yes I drink enough. Acne is not that easy to get rid of for a lot of us
yes, this is the base rules for acne, unfortunately it won’t fix hormonal problems, but it will definitely work for a lot of other cases 😌
Rip curly girls who need hair oil 🥲
Hi, thank you for this video! P.S what do you have on lips? it's looks amazing
To be honest I don't remember exact one, but its definitely brown matt lipstick applied only on the contour 😌
Ok so I just saw your whole video. Thank you so much for sharing. My question is when or how often do you use your actives. Like for example, tretinoin, vit C, red light therapy. Maybe do those during the day? Or do tretinoin at night twice a week but don’t use the silicone patches those nights?
I actually stopped doing activities for now. But if I would need to add them, it would be one night of active, next night of healing with patches, then night of active again…etc
Love this video and love your filming and editing style! And your personality ❤ what camera do you film on please?
Thank you! I use Sony a7iii
I wonder whether it would work for my skin, usually when I block my face (i.e. mask during covid/ sun screen) I break out. And my main problem is that it creates hyperpigmentation and I'm stuck with that scar forever :(
Has anyone came across this too?
I was breaking out from COVID masks. But it also because of the environment. I think if you wash your face and wash patches before it won’t have bacteria to spread. You can also use high frequency wand or blue LED lights to kill the acne causing bacteria before applying the patches.
But I also heard that dermatologists don’t recommend using “slugging” with very oily skin, because pores can clog. So if your skin is very oily, maybe it’s better use salicylic acid
@@irinareina thank you! :)
The only thing that disturbs me is the line of demarcation left at the end of the patch (near the under eye), I am very susceptible to those line and I am afraid that after having them every night they can become permanent.
After how much time did yours replenish and go away? Could they be considered similar to sleeping position lines (which can become permanent wrinkles)?
Move the patches around to slightly different locations each night
From what I notice, they go away in 10 minutes, but you can really locate patches differently or use different shapes every other night.
Nice! Will definitely try this
😌
What do you think about Cold-Pressed Rosehip Seed Oil under the mask?? The oil does WONDERS on my skin overnight as it is.. with acne prone skin, I wonder if this would help even more !! 😊
Me too girl, I can’t live without, it’s such a miracle in a bottle
@@s.m.8498do you think it would be too heavy for under the mask? I feel like the Kheils gel moisturizer I use wouldn’t be moisturizing enough for something like this. What are your thoughts on gel moisturizer vs the oil for under this mask??
You can try it for some hours, not overnight and see how your skin reacts 😌
I need to try this… I work at Macys and have tried so many products since working there. I think my skin barrier is pretty messed up. Thank you 🙏🏻 curious to try Kiehl’s products in combination with the silicon masks
kiehls has pretty good products for extra moisturizing, I think it would work perfect 😌
nice, very good 2 know. yer skin really looks great. nice brows also.. have u considered laminating them so it can emphasize yer beauty even more with yer beautiful skin... well congrats on yer discovery.
Oh yes, I tried laminating them 🤣 nothing is holding this brows, I gave up and just gluing them everyday as much as I can
I know you won’t see this but I’ll keep trying.. can you do a video on your PCOS experience and hormone balancing?
I will definitely do it, it’s in my plan video list! 😌 I don’t know when yet, because I want to figure it out completely to tell the whole story 😌
@@irinareina thank you, I look forward to it!
Maybe a dumb question, but can you use it “forever” or do you need to buy new ones after an amount of time?
as long as you careful I think it should be fine, I feel like they can last for years 😌
People also use back pillows for the same things which can be on amazon
Смотрю вас около 6 лет. Ваши видео потрясающие, всегда что-то новое и интересное😍✨
Спасибо большое, очень приятно 🫰🏻🤍
Ok, I bought it. I can't wait to scare my cats at night lol and to transform my skin yes!!!!!
😂😂😂 this is the best comment, you made my day
@irinareina Thanks lol they were looking at me so funny....so worth it.
great video -thank you!!
🤍😌
Sis! You are gorgeous
thank you 🤍🫰🏻
got the one mentioned in the description: really didn’t work for me. the silicone never seemed to stick, also drying them sticky side up made them flytraps for dust and tiny particles. i love this idea thought but those specific silicone mask wasn’t the best!
thanks for sharing your experience 😌
for me silicone is not really sticky too, that’s why I secure it with the mask, I don’t know how people sleep with only patches on their faces 😅
And about dust it is true, if you live it for a long time outside it can become dirty 😬 that’s why I dry mine in the drawer or cover them with something, even though mine does not get dusty (maybe because I have humid weather)
But I agree, this technique definitely needs a lot of improvement 😌
Please make an update video if this is still helping?
It is 😌 I use it twice a week now, sometimes more often if I feel that my skin needs more.
This is temporary results, so as long as I use it regularly my skin feels good 😌
I love actives but not daily. I use them in moderation.. but I’m down to try silicone patches
Wow this is my first time seeing this! Do all the moisturizing products i use need to be fully absorbed in order for the silicon patches to work?
not really, they will just slide a little more if you will still have products. It just about comfort, you can experiment 😌
@@irinareina thanks!
нивея крем очень забивает поры и вызывает сыпь из маленьких прыщей, если использовать его для лица(
да, я уже посмотрела состав, там есть кометогенные ингредиенты. Но не много, я думаю, что он только для жирной кожи не подойдёт, а остальным будет нормально
how long can you use these? do you have to clean them or buy new ones at some point?
I use them for 3 days in a row, then take a break for some days. You have to clean them before each use, but at some point, you probably need to replace them. They can break if you are not careful 😌
