    I understand that you are not a Cetaphil fan but I used it for years and personally I do not care if a cleanser is innovative as long as it cleans my skin and does not strip my skin, which Cetaphil does. I still use Pond's unscented cold cream to take off my waterproof sunscreen and it works like a dream and I would assume is not innovative and is cheap.

      I don't think Cassandra was saying that Cetaphil needs to be revolutionary to be good, but more that it's a product thats been around for almost 2 decades so she was confused about why it was winning an award this year since it's not new and/or "revolutionary". She said it's a good, basic product, but that she doesn't use it because it's not cruelty free

    For real Cetaphil is revolutionary to me! Non-scented, gentle, works for every skin type, affordable + it removes ALL my makeup (including mascara). It gets no recognition but it's perfect!

      A classical more extreme example would be cancer. We can produce, 1000 mice with lung cancer + a certain imune decease, and hold them at extremely supervised standards.
      Something like that is not not possible with humans.

    It’s really funny when I see skincare becoming a thing now, especially korean beauty, and as a korean who has experienced the “phases” with the trend in korea, people hyping over some things that were a trend a long time ago, especially overhyped products, really bring me back memories. It’s like the reaction I had when I first saw them, and kind of knowing how people are going to move on the same, if not similar, pattern as I/lots of Koreans did. On top of that, kind of sad that people are not experiencing the better and improved skincare and beauty products in Korea now. I guess it is kind of hard because it is an entirely different country, and Koreans tend to move on very, very quickly, it is going to be hard to get all of the products here. ;-; (sorry for the bad english, this is not my first language)

    I’ve been using Cetaphil for 30 years. My former dermatologist recommended it along with 2x weekly pea sized application of Retin-A, wash your face gently at night and rise/pat dry with water in the am and put on more Cetaphil. At 54, I get lots of compliments on my skin and when I tell folks what I do they don’t believe it can be that simple.

    I’m 55 and have been using Cetaphil products (at my dermatologist’s recommendation) since I was a child. I was born with horrible atopic eczema, and soap was always WAY too harsh for me. Their cleanser was always really gentle on my skin, and, even though my eczema is long gone, I still use their cleansers and lotions for temporarily dry skin.

    Beagles! As a beagle mom, knowing people are willing to only support CF brands makes me so happy! My bubs is such a love and I can’t imagine what test beagles goes through. Beagles are so loving and caring and smart. They aren’t lab dummies. We have male politicians for that….

      Sadly, that's exactly why Beagles are used so frequently in animal testing labs. They're so friendly and trusting that anything can be done to them and they'll come out of it with a smile on their face and a desire to please. It's heartbreaking.
      I can't say much due to privacy agreements, but I used to work at a pharmaceutical company that utilized animal testing. I mistakenly opened up an SOP once that laid out how the testing was done. My curiosity got the best of me so I read on. I understand why it was being done, but seeing diagrams of how to hook things up was just disturbing, to say the least. These poor animals. Hopefully, industries can start moving away from it and find another effective manner to test products.

Even though I'm sure this is not hyper pigmentation since my entire face looks tan, I'm using The Ordinary ascorbic acid 8% + alpha arbutin 2%. I'm really lost right now and worried about the health of my skin. Please suggest me what I should do in this case.

    Hey, I’d love to hear your thoughts on accessibility to cruelty free and or vegan skincare products for those of us with low income. I just personally haven’t seen many people talk about it, and since it is a privilege to be able to have access to those kinds of products I think its an important convo to have. While there are more budget friendly CF products nowadays, I feel like quite a few of us still struggle to access them.

I have severly dry skin, so I can't follow the average skin care routine. It doesn't spin, it vibrates. The brush hairs are just so fine, you cannot get that from the thicker silicone bristles. Until I can find a silicone brush with finer bristles, I'm not going to purchase the silicone face brush. They do look like they would feel really nice though!
