Totally understand if you don’t want to read my very, very, very long comments, but I love your video. Thank you so much for putting your results up! You look absolutely gorgeous! I think that, given I’ve gone through the same thing as you, it’s definitely the dairy. I will try to color out if possible, my long, and talks about multiple benefits from that that I have personally gone through and I am now plant based and loving it like nothing in the world could make me switch back, even if you told me that no animals had to die or anything… I eat well I eat a lot and when I was younger, I had a really bad problem with keeping a healthy weight because I like to eat a lot so it works out well for me but just avoiding dairy will probably help you so much! My dermatologist even recommended it to me when I was younger, and I wish I had listened then. Most people of European descent are lactose, intolerant, however, we make ourselves lactose tolerant by consuming it from a young age. I noticed that I actually was lactose intolerant after I stopped consuming it so much, and as soon as I stopped consuming dairy the break out stopped- i’m not gonna lie I will still get a hormonal zit once in a blue moon, but actually usually you can’t even see it Also, if you quickly think about the people with nice skin, that we are unfortunately exposed to all of the time like Kim Kardashian - - she’s vegan. Well, she’s a vegan cheater, but she’s vegan lol Beyoncé has gorgeous skin! She eats vegan most of the time or are used to I think she might be full-time vegan now. Just saying it’s not something to write off especially if you’re seeing it on your face it’s a sign that your body is trying to tell you something 💜
Ooh my god I wish I had you in my life when my skin was really bad!! I spent a year on accutane and it cleared my skin but I used to have terrible acne, and your positive energy would really have helped through some hard times. Definitely subscribing ❤️
I'm not sure if your skin is better now, but I used to have the same issues with huge breakouts (I have big pores, too), well into my 30's. What saved my skin was going on a plant-based diet and supplimenting with moringa, it's the most nutrious plant in the world, and it does wonder for skin and hair. The Henriksen formula unfortunately did noting for my pigment issue,
I’m so glad I found your channel! Very genuine and straightforward review. Love your review style, I usually fast forward but I was interested the whole video. Thank you, will subscribe 😁🙏🏻
I think your skin looks better. You might be exfoliating a little too much...maybe alternate the physical and chemical until your face is more adjusted?? It's nice that you did this video to help others make their decision on whether to use this toner or not. Good luck on your skincare journey!
I know this video is older but I definitely think you should skip the Clarisonic on nights where you use any chemical exfoliant. It can become to harsh even with a gentle brush head. Also the inkey list has a great Tranexamic acid hyperpigmentation serum that I absolutely adore! It’s helped lighten and even out my skin tone and acne scaring I think you’d might like it too 😊🤍
I have since stopped using the clarisonic since I felt like my skin wasnt a fan, I much prefer chemical exfoliants now. And thank you so much for the recommendation from the Inkey List! I've been looking into the brand and what to try out a lot of their products!
I don’t thinkkkk this is supposed to be used eerrrday? Be careful some other products you use may have AHA, BHAs or PHAs in them… lol well obviously you did it! I feel like the company doesn’t put specific directions (I believe it just says use at night?) on purpose. I think it’s supposed to be used once or twice a week until you get used to it? That’s what I’m going to try-thank you for your video! I have some pigmentation I am trying to address and other things and came up with a skincare routine with my derm (pillow talk derm-Dr shereene idriss she’s the bomb!!) & no, we’re probs “not” supposed to physically and chemically exfoliate but… I love my Clarisonic too!!! It’s lasted a decade! (Don’t worry, clean new gentle brush 😂) I wanted to say I’ve been there.
Does anyone know? Seems to lead you to believe that you should every day however if it was strong enough. Light he ate it is an exfoliants. I am unlock toddler being very very happy and loud! If you can’t understand me, my point is is that it thing every night.! problem that I have with it is that it has glycolic acid in it and I wanted it for my bad. Smell great! I’ve been using it for a week and have been noticing my skin has been looking better but I am 32 years old just green and also Jean and all of that has definitely helped probably I can’t tell specifically because I added a lot in it once and the retinol that I’ve been using. i’ve taken up enough lol. I want this product work! I do! But as much as I would like it to be so nice, for all I do is wash and “tone “my face… I didn’t want to be able to use vitamin C morning at night that’s why I love the Sunday, Riley, vitamin C, vitamin C THDS, Corvette acid, not active form, works better with my actual skin and Sunday Riley every day. If you got this far in my message… I don’t know whether to feel bad for you! I kind of gave up halfway through my son is dancing in the hallway I have to go lol
I’m So Happy I Came Across This Video,I Also Have Oily,Acne Prone, And Sensitive Skin. I Also Have Had Hormonal Acne For 16 Years.My Face Breaks Out So Bad Whenever I Eat Pizza Or Like Anything Dairy. I Also Get The Most Breakouts On My Chin. I’m Literally Going To Watch All Your Skincare Video’s.Omg Thank You So Much For This Video,I Was Just Thinking About Buying This Ole Henriksen Toner For My Dark Spots.😢❤️
I am a teenager and I thankfully got rid of most of my acne, but I was left with so many acne scars! I really hope this product will help get rid of them. Thank you for the review! ❤
What are your thoughts on Isotretinoin (Accutane)? I went on it this year (40mg). It went just fine, I haven't had a sigle zit for three months, and I cannot believe I put myself through so much hardship for 29 years. I see myself in you in this video. The excitement of a new product, the imminent disappointment, and I feel almost a sense of responsibility to tell fellow acne sufferers that acne doesn't have to be a part of life.
If only I took it earlier. I can not beleive that I do not wake up with acne anymore. The pigmentions is another story. But, it really is freeing not being handicapped to my skin.
Destiny Egu I know. Bumps on my forehead have returned, something I barely paid attention to before Isotretinoin because of more severe acne on my chin. Now it’s my only skin problem and I almost don’t mind it because it reminds me wrose skin times.
Please tell me what exactly you have used to get rid of it completely? I am suffering from it and gonna be 30 soon. Started when u was 16 😢😢. Plz plz plz reply back. Thank you.
If this is the first time you are using any type of AHA the reason you are breaking out could be bevause your skin is bringing everything to the surface. This happened to me with the dr dennis gross peel pads which I looove but am unable to buy where I am right now (and due to corona.. no shipping to greenland). So I just bought this toner because it also contains AHA’s. But your skin looked great by the end! Just wanted to raise the point :)
I’m trying this out. Trying to switch up from my normal witch hazel routine which drastically cleared my skin up last year. This year not sure what is going on. I got this toner this week and have been using it at night for 4 days so far and my skin is the absolute worst it has ever been. I’m hoping to do it for 7 days and if it continues to get worse i’m going to ditch it 😩
Oh no! I definitely recommend to stop using it for a few days and let your skin calm down. I'm not sure if you've done a test patch, but if you're game to try the product again definitely be sure to only apply it to one area maybe every other day and be extremely gentle and don't linger on the area for too long. If your skin responds well then start applying it to your entire face after that. Don't give up though! You will find your miracle products soon ❤
to be honest, i don’t use any chemicals on my face when washing/cleansing my face, i literally use soap and it got rid of my acne, thankfully. so i’ll be using the product after washing my face
You should try vegan pizza. Mellow Mushroom has vegan pizza and you can get it with bbq or buffalo drizzle over it. There’s also tons of good dairy free chocolate now. Justin’s peanut butter cups are delish and Oreos are dairy free. ❤️
I'm using the product now. At first, I broke out , but not sure if it was this product or not because of hormonal acne on my chins. I stopped and started up again last 2 weeks. I've noticed my skin gotten alot smoother. I'm planning on finishing up the bottle and see from there if it helps with pigmentation and acne scars.
@@EmeliaKate Thank you Emelia for your kind reply. Its good to know you like the product, i think I will like too. Lots of regards take care have great day xx
When ever you use a new product i dont think you should mix produts even with ordinary they tell u not to mix but give u a plan wat u can you use. But thats reallly great after 14 days wow some products do get worse before using it as i had savere acne .but ur skin us gone amazing. But this product is for texture n dark spots did it help you as brought it i did a test ob my arm but it was ok .
Oops cut myself off. I wanted to say I’ve been there. I had horrible acne, cystic and hormonal UGH nightmarish! INTO MY 20s! When I was younger all the derms/docs said “by the time your 18 you will have adult skin… it will go away”. I lost hope honestly and thought I was going to be like that forever! I managed to get it better….ish with some products (oh girl it’s hitting me now DANG this smells heavenly! ❤) but it was still there. I’m not trying to push plant based “propaganda”, only what my experience was. I noticed the same thing with dairy. Boom more zits about a day and a half after eating it so I ate less and less dairy… I was vegetarian for ethical and personal reasons but I ate a lot of cheese… I couldn’t NOT have a pizza! Mozzarella sticks.. ok I’m making myself hungry at 4a lmao. I became a certified personal trainer & also went to college to study nutrition. I’m not kidding you when I tell you at WCU EVERY TEACHER in the nutrition department is vegan or vegetarian (except one awesome guy who unfortunately left due to a heart issue 😢). I read the book “skinny bitches guide to eating vegan” among MANY others and studied my text book. Started eating vegan, I was amazed with MY results (not everyone is the same… it may not be for you if you have a certain type of chrons disease .. just random example… but in most cases just like with any other diet (Way of eating) as long as you get your RDA of your macro and micronutrients… and no you do NOT have to hit it every day (ie maybe you have 10% vitamin C one day and 220% the next..) and people often forget this about protein **sorry this is so long it’s near and dear to my heart! And if I could help one person with my story … anyway my point is warth out for protein poisoning. Ifs a real thing in the US. Have you ever heard of anyone who had a protein deficiency (that wasn’t all over malnourished?) … my point is some things our govt… someone… puts out there so that we BUY…. Animal protein is not the best protein to consume, for example it’s horrible for your bones (as I said before I am only mentioning things from studies or my experience) the body basically is like huh and you pee out the phosphate and LEACH the calcium from your BONES!!! Eww. Not to say it’s horrible in small amounts.. So my story. Horrrible acne. I was vegan, I was about 25 lbs overweight and I do yoga and try to workout (but some days I was training others more than working out lol at that time). I did at least 30 mins cardio twice a week, most weeks and hit my goal weight. With working out less than I had been before! And eating MORE! So for me, it has been AMAZING-I feel good, my body balanced out at the right weight, did i mention I feel good!? Sleep better!? Lol. My SKIN CLEARED up! I’m so happy and I feel like internet vegans are … pushy and rude sometimes but all I’m saying is you should check out some literature(I could send you studies) and look up earthlings on yT, “the best vegan speech” I believe it’s called by Gary Yourofsky(MUST SEE!!!) I had bad fatigue before and I’m telling you … for me… everyone’s results can be different…best decision I’ve ever made. My skin is now “aging backwards” according to my derm and mirror lol I could show you a pic (I’m now 32 which is still young but get carded again!?) I don’t really care about that so much. My stomach doesn’t hurt.. I can eat a WHOLE Amy’s margarita pizza (my personal fav) without any consequences… in fact I had Mac and cheese cupcakes and pizza today… lol… I also of course take supplements and make sure to eat healthy fruits veggies and legumes! (Also my bloodwork is the best it’s ever been!) I’m not trying to sell you on a lifestyle change… my whole point is it changed my body in the most amazing way, I feel better being more ethical and environmentally friendly and MY SKIN is finally WINNING!!! Haha if you got to the end of this, thank you for reading! Maybe try what Beyoncé does or Kim K and eat plant based a few days a week. It takes a little while (month or two) for your body to acclimate but it can’t hurt to try and every one of my friends family & clients who has went vegan never came back and had similar results to me (energy, weight balancing out, better skin.. my one friends eyes went from brown to blue? Apparently that’s a sign of health… she’s always had blue eyes but a health condition caused by food made them very dark 🤷♀️) ✌️🌱🥬🥒💜🧴
Also, since I just wrote a novel there… Holy cow! I just wanted to share with somebody who looks like they went through the same thing I did! I did stop eating vegan for a little while… I was weak and I had a boyfriend who is now my husband who took me to this beautiful orchard on a daily basis and he would get an egg and cheese sandwich and it smelled so good that one day I caved, and I spent two years vegetarian again. My acne came back. I gained a ton of weight and I never felt the same. Fast forward a few years we’re living together and I’m going to work and eating vegan at work and then at night time or on the weekend eating pizza with my husband. Or other dairy products. I started noticing a small stomachache- well, small might not exactly cover it. It actually started to hurt pretty bad and I went to the doctor and of course it’s a sign that I was starting to make myself lactose intolerant! Most people of European descent are naturally lactose intolerant, we just make her selves tolerant by consuming lots of lactose! Which is very interesting, but you can look that up. 😊 Anyway, I put on 15 pounds was kind of mad because I was working out pretty hard and my skin just went completely backwards so I went vegan again and I have never looked back a few months later my body even doubt on the weight (also, I have noticed this in clients and other friends whether you’re overweight or underweight it seems like if you start eating plant based that your body evens out at a good weight that is healthy for you? How does it know to do that? I have no clue! Plant power yo!$, so I was at my goal weight again and my skin was radiant again and now that I am in my 30s I have been getting lots of questions like who do I get Botox from or how do I keep my skin so nice and honestly not that I’m against it, but I’ve never had any sort of toxin or filler done… Yet? And also wanted to say during this time. It was the most noticeable that it was the food that was causing my acne. Again, because they wrote so much I’m just going to also say that eating vegan can be so easy! You can eat vegan and eat like a total freak. By that I mean, you can eat vegan, Cheez-Its… Vegan pizza… Cookies, cupcakes, anything you want they have a vegan version of it and it’s good! Don’t get me wrong you might have to try one or two before you find the right one, but you literally miss out on nothing! And there are so many games I could get into the biomechanics of it all, but really like it’s better for your muscle building… That is opinion based, but I can. links in double blind studies… Anyway, I just wanted to say that for me, it absolutely reversed my acne, made my skin look, nicer, helped with my weight problem, helped with my heart palpitations I was having they completely stopped, helped with my fatigue - - I know I have energy! I am calmer and I love love love life and as previously stated, I feel amazing that I am leaving a small carbon footprint & I absolutely love animals, which is why I was vegetarian to begin with, and it’s really disgusting the things that they do to test beauty products on them… Not to mention to butcher them. I highly highly highly would recommend watching earthlings I believe everybody should watch that - - and also the first thing I would do would be able to watch the speech by Gary Yourofsky! It’s amazing and it will get you thinking. And I’m so sorry if I offended anybody by any of my long ass comments, I don’t mean to push veganism on anyone I just want to share my personal experience and the personal benefits that I saw were so insane that I can’t help but not share and this is my first time sharing on TH-cam so thank you! Much love to you all and I hope the best for anyone reading this and the video creator! And please make sure to make sure that your products are cruelty, free ❤, because… why test on animals? Have you ever seen pictures or video of it 🤮🤢… there are willing humans that can speak for themselves & will test. Lol. Wow, I feel like I just wrote a novel (The unfortunate side effect of when you’re excited about something and you speak into your phone 😂🤣) Check out those kinks! If you want any book recommendations let me know ❤
Only use this toner at night. It has AHAs (glycolic & lactic acid) that may increase your skin's sensitivity to the sun. I recommend wearing a sunscreen during the day as well to make sure your skin is extra protected 😊
@@phadaellearistide7366 yeah, I typically stick to gentler products in the morning. I highly recommend Thayer's Witch Hazel Toner if you haven't tried it out yet. It's very gentle and non-drying. The cucumber and rose ones are my favorite ♥️
Sephora states on their website that this product can be used on Normal, Dry, Combination, and Oily skin. I really do recommend you try it out, just be sure to do a test patch just in case your skin has a negative reaction.
Check out my 7 MONTH Update video here :: th-cam.com/video/vWk-4SVHu-I/w-d-xo.html
You seriously do such a great and thorough job with these kind of videos!
I started using zinc and vitamin A and my face has clearer up drastically!
What was the dosage (For the vitamin A)? And how many did you take per day?
Totally understand if you don’t want to read my very, very, very long comments, but I love your video. Thank you so much for putting your results up! You look absolutely gorgeous! I think that, given I’ve gone through the same thing as you, it’s definitely the dairy.

Emelia Kate I feel your pain. Super hit or miss.
this blue toner makes my skin so pain I was crying.
What do u mean plz
How do you clean your face? With a cleanser or just with water?
I always cleanse my skin with a cleanser. I use the CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser. And then I always double cleanse when I have makeup on
I just bought a cosrx toner I'm excited to try but I've been curious about ole henrikson products, thanks for the thorough review! Is it alcohol free?
I'm using the product now. At first, I broke out , but not sure if it was this product or not because of hormonal acne on my chins. I stopped and started up again last 2 weeks.

Thank you for the tip! I'll have to look into this ♥️
I got a 1 oz bottle to try. Hopeful! Great vid!
Yay! I'm so excited that you're trying it out. I really hope it works for you ♥️
Niacinamide will cause skin to purge as well. So watch over doing it with too many products
have you ever thought about taking acutane ?
You’re such a cutie, I’ll definitely subscribe! 🥰

Animal protein is not the best protein to consume, for example it’s horrible for your bones (as I said before I am only mentioning things from studies or my experience) the body basically is like huh and you pee out the phosphate and LEACH the calcium from your BONES!!! Eww. Not to say it’s horrible in small amounts..
So my story. Horrrible acne. I was vegan, I was about 25 lbs overweight and I do yoga and try to workout (but some days I was training others more than working out lol at that time). I did at least 30 mins cardio twice a week, most weeks and hit my goal weight. With working out less than I had been before! And eating MORE! So for me, it has been AMAZING-I feel good, my body balanced out at the right weight, did i mention I feel good!? Sleep better!? Lol. My SKIN CLEARED up! I’m so happy and I feel like internet vegans are … pushy and rude sometimes but all I’m saying is you should check out some literature(I could send you studies) and look up earthlings on yT, “the best vegan speech” I believe it’s called by Gary Yourofsky(MUST SEE!!!)
I had bad fatigue before and I’m telling you … for me… everyone’s results can be different…best decision I’ve ever made. My skin is now “aging backwards” according to my derm and mirror lol I could show you a pic (I’m now 32 which is still young but get carded again!?) I don’t really care about that so much.
My stomach doesn’t hurt.. I can eat a WHOLE Amy’s margarita pizza (my personal fav) without any consequences… in fact I had Mac and cheese cupcakes and pizza today… lol… I also of course take supplements and make sure to eat healthy fruits veggies and legumes! (Also my bloodwork is the best it’s ever been!)
I’m not trying to sell you on a lifestyle change… my whole point is it changed my body in the most amazing way, I feel better being more ethical and environmentally friendly and MY SKIN is finally WINNING!!!
Haha if you got to the end of this, thank you for reading! Maybe try what Beyoncé does or Kim K and eat plant based a few days a week. It takes a little while (month or two) for your body to acclimate but it can’t hurt to try and every one of my friends family & clients who has went vegan never came back and had similar results to me (energy, weight balancing out, better skin.. my one friends eyes went from brown to blue? Apparently that’s a sign of health… she’s always had blue eyes but a health condition caused by food made them very dark 🤷♀️)

Also, since I just wrote a novel there… Holy cow! I just wanted to share with somebody who looks like they went through the same thing I did!
I did stop eating vegan for a little while… I was weak and I had a boyfriend who is now my husband who took me to this beautiful orchard on a daily basis and he would get an egg and cheese sandwich and it smelled so good that one day I caved, and I spent two years vegetarian again. My acne came back. I gained a ton of weight and I never felt the same. Fast forward a few years we’re living together and I’m going to work and eating vegan at work and then at night time or on the weekend eating pizza with my husband. Or other dairy products. I started noticing a small stomachache- well, small might not exactly cover it. It actually started to hurt pretty bad and I went to the doctor and of course it’s a sign that I was starting to make myself lactose intolerant! Most people of European descent are naturally lactose intolerant, we just make her selves tolerant by consuming lots of lactose! Which is very interesting, but you can look that up. 😊
Anyway, I put on 15 pounds was kind of mad because I was working out pretty hard and my skin just went completely backwards so I went vegan again and I have never looked back a few months later my body even doubt on the weight (also, I have noticed this in clients and other friends whether you’re overweight or underweight it seems like if you start eating plant based that your body evens out at a good weight that is healthy for you? How does it know to do that? I have no clue! Plant power yo!$, so I was at my goal weight again and my skin was radiant again and now that I am in my 30s I have been getting lots of questions like who do I get Botox from or how do I keep my skin so nice and honestly not that I’m against it, but I’ve never had any sort of toxin or filler done… Yet? And also wanted to say during this time. It was the most noticeable that it was the food that was causing my acne.
Again, because they wrote so much I’m just going to also say that eating vegan can be so easy! You can eat vegan and eat like a total freak. By that I mean, you can eat vegan, Cheez-Its… Vegan pizza… Cookies, cupcakes, anything you want they have a vegan version of it and it’s good! Don’t get me wrong you might have to try one or two before you find the right one, but you literally miss out on nothing! And there are so many games I could get into the biomechanics of it all, but really like it’s better for your muscle building… That is opinion based, but I can. links in double blind studies… Anyway, I just wanted to say that for me, it absolutely reversed my acne, made my skin look, nicer, helped with my weight problem, helped with my heart palpitations I was having they completely stopped, helped with my fatigue - - I know I have energy! I am calmer and I love love love life and as previously stated, I feel amazing that I am leaving a small carbon footprint & I absolutely love animals, which is why I was vegetarian to begin with, and it’s really disgusting the things that they do to test beauty products on them… Not to mention to butcher them. I highly highly highly would recommend watching earthlings I believe everybody should watch that - - and also the first thing I would do would be able to watch the speech by Gary Yourofsky! It’s amazing and it will get you thinking.
And I’m so sorry if I offended anybody by any of my long ass comments, I don’t mean to push veganism on anyone I just want to share my personal experience and the personal benefits that I saw were so insane that I can’t help but not share and this is my first time sharing on TH-cam so thank you! Much love to you all and I hope the best for anyone reading this and the video creator! And please make sure to make sure that your products are cruelty, free ❤, because… why test on animals? Have you ever seen pictures or video of it 🤮🤢… there are willing humans that can speak for themselves & will test. Lol.
Wow, I feel like I just wrote a novel (The unfortunate side effect of when you’re excited about something and you speak into your phone 😂🤣)
Check out those kinks! If you want any book recommendations let me know ❤
When is it best to use it? In the morning or at night? Or both? :)
Only use this toner at night. It has AHAs (glycolic & lactic acid) that may increase your skin's sensitivity to the sun. I recommend wearing a sunscreen during the day as well to make sure your skin is extra protected 😊
Oh thanks for replying this fast. So basically I’d need to user another toner in the morning, something basic ?
@@phadaellearistide7366 yeah, I typically stick to gentler products in the morning. I highly recommend Thayer's Witch Hazel Toner if you haven't tried it out yet. It's very gentle and non-drying. The cucumber and rose ones are my favorite ♥️
What helps with scars
is this good for sensitive skin?
Gabriela Guevara I just bought this and I have sensitive skin and so far so good I’ve used it for about a week now.
do i have to use moisturizer after that????
Yes!!
Does this product cause purge?
I feel like any exfoliating product could cause slight purging, for me I personally didn't really experience too much of it.
Is it for dry skin ??
Sephora states on their website that this product can be used on Normal, Dry, Combination, and Oily skin. I really do recommend you try it out, just be sure to do a test patch just in case your skin has a negative reaction.
You look like you could be related to Dr. Dray. :)
Skin 😍
Babe, I am using this too but the amount you have used in 30 days doesn’t seem you have been trying it lol 😂. Who agrees with me?
What do you mean?
