I've noticed she hasn't outright recommended any product. I wonder if it's a work conflict? Since she forumlates products for companies, she may not be allowed to talk about it or recommend competators.
*TIME STAMPS* 0:25 *Aloe vera* - For wound healing and cell generation. Look for acemannan, aloe polysaccharide extract or aloe extract, and NOT leaf juice. 2:08 *Hyaluronic acid* - Hydration. 2:40 *Trans-resveratrol* - Antioxidant. For redness and acne. Just eat grapes lol. 3:55 *Lactic acid* - Chemical exfoliation. 5:00 *Centella asiatica (gotu kola)* - Wound healing (I'm assuming its function is same as aloe vera). 5:30 *Ceramides* - Natural moisture barrier of skin. For moisture retention and good for eczema. 6:23 *Ferulic acid* - Antioxidant against UV radiation. Pair with sunscreen. 7:20 *Azelaic acid* - Free fatty acid. For acne. 7:58 *Hemp seed oil* - Best as cleansing oil and/or leave-on for body. 8:50 *Sunscreen* - Duh. Have to get back to work lol. In case you want to jump back to review a specific ingredient :p I may or may not edit this to include their functions later, depending on my schedule (I'm currently at work shhhh lol) Edit: These are just cheat notes for fast reference. Watch her whole video. Very informative. #sciencebabes
I would love to see a top 10 skincare products from the drugstore.....or a review on certain brands like la roche possay or vichy. Thanks for this quality content. Love from Argentina
@@SarahSkinnyJeans I used to work for who carried LaRoche and Vichy. I think theyre both wonderful lines. But Vichy is fragranced just to let you know. Give them a try.
@@michelletidler1868 I have tried. VICHY and I LOVE it. But I'm wondering how healthy it actually is for my skin. Like despite it doing a damn good job at getting rid of my fine lines and wrinkles. I'm curious to know if I could be using something healthier or if VICHYs ingredient are harmless, then amazing! Thanks for the input 😄
I took copious notes while listening to this video. Kenna, you just make so much sense and are not pushing $95 creams on us. BRAVO! This video was the best I have heard concerning what exactly does my skin need. It always seems that these skincare commercials keep popping up describing this "magic" oil that will solve all our problems. Even main stream companies come across this way as well. Many of these ingredients are in products from The Ordinary... so I will be placing an order tomorrow!
Well now I'm going to use my aloe plants more. Can you tell me a specific product that isn't real expensive would really help with fine lines? Can you do a video for 10 things you avoid in skincare?
From what I've read retinoids are really good when it comes to fine lines and wrinkles as well as evening the skin. You can buy differin in drugstores and walmart and that contains adapalene which is a retinoid!
I'm hearing really good things about hyaluronic acid for pumping fine lines on reddit in the skincare addiction subreddit. Just a personal anecdote: I used that sephora bday gift the Drunk Elephant protini moisturizer which has ceramides, hyaluronic acid, and a bunch of fantastic ingredients and my skin never looked so good. I had this natural glow and it didn't break me out. Now I'm not necessarily saying it's just this moisturizer, but I suspect all the ingredients I mentioned really helped because I used the Kale Hyaluronic Acid moisturizer by some other brand who's name escapes me and had similar results. Make sure you use hyaluronic acid on wet skin it sounds weird but makes a big difference.
Janine J the moisturiser in the line contains almost everything Kenna mentioned, indeed :) sadly everything is sold out, and, being a small local brand, there won’t be as much global coverage....
@@janinej919 all the products have fragrance.. and the moisturizer claiming ceramides as "benefit" seems like it uses SK-influx (ceramide ap, ceramide eop, phytosphingosine, cholesterol, sodium lauroyl lactylate, carbomer, xanthan gum) im disappointed now.. i thought she was different.. :p
smith jane I’m sorry, but I don’t know what is wrong with the ingredients you listed-they all sound good to me. Except I agree that fragrance is a problem. Don’t know what to think of that.
1. Aloe vera 2. Hyaluronic acid 3. Trans-resveratrol 4. Lactic Acid 5. Centella Asiatica (gotu kola) 6. Ceramides 7. Ferulic Acid 8. Azelaic Acid 9. Cannabis Sativa (Hemp) Seed oil 10. Sunscreen (Just in case you know what each ingredient does and want to save time)
It's such a breath of fresh air to have somebody talk about beauty products in such a definitive way. It's so nice to have a beauty TH-camr that doesn't just screech at a camra about the newest eyeshadow palette that they got from PR haha
Very informative, Kenna. I’m looking forward to future videos where you go into more depth about these ingredients, where to find them, and how to use them. Keep up the great content! 💕
Thanks for the information! Great content as usual. Can you do a video about Skin lightening for hyperpigmentation like Kojic acid, Arbutin, and Niacinamide. Is arbutin safe for long term daily use? Does it cause onchronosis? Thank you!
You are a Breath of Fresh Air in this beauty/TH-cam community!! Every bit of advice you’ve given me has already helped me so much! Thank you Kenna!! You deserve a million!! I wouldn’t be surprised if you hit that in the next year!
I love your videos. I love and appreciate that it’s really just based on the information and content you’re sharing... no frills, no backdrop, dramatic lighting, crazy editing, ads/sponsors. Thank you and I really hope you continue sharing your knowledge with everyone 😊
Oh my gosh! Im so glad your channel exists. Please tell us what products you use as well. I know not all products work for everyone, but it'll be very educational and help us find what fits us best. Love your channel!
Thank you so much for being such an advocate for sunscreen! I was diagnosed with Stage 4 Melanoma at 38, and we can't have enough allies out there sharing how vital it is too protect yourself from harmful UV rays.
I want to take a moment to say I'm grateful for your videos. I never really understood what ingredients to look for in my beauty products. Your videos have been so helpful and informative. I now look at all ingredients on the products I'm using. It's so nice being able to understand what exactly certain ingredients do 👍 Thank you for creating and sharing this content
I love that you refer to us as Science Babes. It makes me feel like we are out here learning and getting schooled by you - and it's true! We love you. Thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to educate us.
I’m going to be walking into stores with a list of all these ingredients taking my sweet time checking everything that’s in the product and hopefully I will find something. You are so incredible. Thank you for being so informative!
I agree with you on sunscreen. I also once heard a dermatologist saying that the best sunscreen is the one you use. It can be great and safe, but if you end up not using it, because it's thick or too white or whatever, then it's useless 🤷🏻♀️
A lot of people have tested and rated sunscreens in the skincare addiction subreddit on Reddit if you are not sure what one is best! I really like the Australian Gold tinted one because it's velvety and dries to a matte finish AND it's a physical sunscreen which spreadability is pretty much unheard of with those! But ya any sunscreen you will actually use is the best sunscreen (except for those cheap brands that aren't actually waterproof)
Would love to see a video with your skincare routine, morning, night, how it changes throughout the week or seasonally, and which specific products you use
I read an article that said azelaic acid rivals retinol and is just as effective and less sensitizing. Super excited to try it, but I'm hearing you can't buy it in Canada. So I'm excited to hear if it's naturally occurring in plant extracts I can still get here!
Julia exactly! And I don’t want to be limited to a few products either. I want to know what others are out there that reap the same benefits so I have options 🙂
You have so much great information, thank you! Yes, please tell us actual products you recommend that contain these ingredients. I am going to go get an aloe plant today!!
Kenna, I’m so glad you talked about the sunscreen thing. I just saw my dermatologist and she told me about the potential of it absorbing into the bloodstream. It freaked me out. Like, I’m gonna get cancer if I don’t use sunscreen and I can potentially get it if I do😓😓. It’s exhausting. But I’m gonna keep using it. Thanksx.
Love the intro!!! You are my go-to channel when it comes to skin care and makeup! I have learned more about proper skin care during the few months of watching your channel than I have watching other creators for years. Thank you for sharing your knowledge about these ingredients!
I'm so glad you mentioned sunscreen. If your doubting Kennas claims, please visit any Australian Cancer Socities website - we have the highest incidence of melanoma in the world! Any outdoor worker is required to wear it & other sunblock hats etc. year round under occupational health & safety laws in Australia!
I love your videos, you're seriously so cool. Could you maybe do a video telling us HOW to use those ingredients and the products you use. Maybe even a daytime/nighttime skincare routine video!
I think the most important reason why we should be skeptical of those reports about hormonal effects of chemical sunscreen ingredients is that those results have only been demonstrated in vitro, never in vivo (except maybe in mice, which are not people), and that's not because in vivo studies haven't been done - they have and they did not return the same results as the in vitro testing.
I so agree with the aloe vera in skincare. 👍👍👍 My thesis back then was about aloe and skin healing after nasty burns. And I'm not talking about 1st degree burns. The results were amazing. And that is an understatement.
I'd love for you to go into a deeper dive on sunscreen. I personally don't ever wear any, unless I'm on vacation. I just find I don't burn. But I'm curious to know what it really does for our skin and also how to incorporate it into your everyday skincare routine
Can you speak on reapplying sunscreen? The bottles all say to reapply every __ hours but I believe most of us who wear makeup don't do that. What's your take?
Right? Why do I need to reapply every 2 hours? I use the Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer and it says to reapply every 2 hours. I feel like that would just make me look really cakey.
That recommendation is there for a reason. Obviously, like most products, the effects of sunscreen will wear off after some time. If you are going to be in the sun for prolonged periods of time, it is mandatory to reapply if you wish to maintain an effective barrier between your skin and sun. If you're wearing makeup and are going to be outside for longer than 2 hours, bring other means of protection. Or just try not to wear makeup on days you know you'll be outside for a long time.
I know this might not exactly help, but I really like the tinted Australian Gold mineral sunscreen. It has the texture of a soft velvety primer and dries to a matte finish. Perfect for fair skin especially those with pink or redness in their skin. I could see reapplying it over makeup a bit better than some of the sticky sunscreens.
I've had an Aloe Vera plant ever since KathleenLights talked about having one and using it to get rid of the breakout she had on her forehead. Good to know that it's way better to buy the plant itself!
I think you should do a video going over very popular skin care products that most of know of and probably use and just give your knowledge and thoughts on them!
Do you have recommendations for people with rosacea? I was recently diagnosed and prescribed a topical gel, but I'd love to know if there's more I can do or things I should avoid. Love your channel!
You should do a video about what your routine is and when you use these ingredients! For example I use a lactic acid serum 3 times a week but I never know what else to use or not to use on those nights.
Can you do a sunscreen video in the future. I have huge issues trying to find a sunscreen that doesn't give me pimples. I've tried many kinds. Thank you for your videos
Hi Kenna. Thank you for creating informative videos. Could you please make a video about natural&organic skincare products? Recently I decided to use only natural&organic skincare products but after watching some videos about them I got confused. Is it just a marketing ploy? Are those natural&organic skincare products thoroughly regulated? And can we trust all these “natural” or “organic” certification labels on the products?
I was using rice Bran oil on my hair earlier this year and got good growth results! Interesting to see you mention it here too...or rather the Ferulic Acid
Please do a review/opinion video on The Ordinary and make a suggested skincare regimen of their products! I love their skincare line but it is kinda intimidating to navigate without an extensive knowledge of skin chemistry.
Kenna, can you maybe show us what products you use in your skincare routine and how they connect with the ingredients you look for such as those mentioned here? Or can you give us some examples of looking at an ingredient label and how you break down whether it's what you're looking for? Thanks!
kenna, i would love to hear you address diy/handmade sun screen. so many are getting in on the indie market and think they can make sunscreen as well. there is no way to effectively test these concoctions or to have them blended in the correct way without specialized equipment, to be able to make such products at home. please advise followers to go with professionals for this step, whether they choose chemical or physical sun screen.
![ILLSLICK X YOUNGOHM - We're The same [Official Video]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/yUJNkobYR0E/mqdefault.jpg)
Do you think you could list some products that include these ingredients that you recommend?

You are fantastic! I am learning so much and it is fascinating!
Can you speak on reapplying sunscreen? The bottles all say to reapply every __ hours but I believe most of us who wear makeup don't do that. What's your take?
Yes please answer this!
Right? Why do I need to reapply every 2 hours? I use the Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer and it says to reapply every 2 hours. I feel like that would just make me look really cakey.
That recommendation is there for a reason. Obviously, like most products, the effects of sunscreen will wear off after some time. If you are going to be in the sun for prolonged periods of time, it is mandatory to reapply if you wish to maintain an effective barrier between your skin and sun. If you're wearing makeup and are going to be outside for longer than 2 hours, bring other means of protection. Or just try not to wear makeup on days you know you'll be outside for a long time.

Perfect for fair skin especially those with pink or redness in their skin. I could see reapplying it over makeup a bit better than some of the sticky sunscreens.
I reapply my sunscreen by using a makeup setting spray with SPF. (I use Coola)

Are those natural&organic skincare products thoroughly regulated? And can we trust all these “natural” or “organic” certification labels on the products?
I was using rice Bran oil on my hair earlier this year and got good growth results! Interesting to see you mention it here too...or rather the Ferulic Acid
I absolutely love and look forward to your information and breakdowns of cosmetics! Keep it up and I will keep learning 😁
You're AWESOME! Thank You for sharing your precious time, knowledge, & thoughts with us! Hugs & Blessings 2U!
I'm so glad I came across your channel!
Could you do a video on what you eat in a day??? I feel like you would have a lot of good info on food as well!
This is the content I’m looking for! Thank you!
Your channel is amazing Kenna! Loving it. Learning a ton. Keep it up!
Please do a review/opinion video on The Ordinary and make a suggested skincare regimen of their products! I love their skincare line but it is kinda intimidating to navigate without an extensive knowledge of skin chemistry.
Kenna, can you maybe show us what products you use in your skincare routine and how they connect with the ingredients you look for such as those mentioned here? Or can you give us some examples of looking at an ingredient label and how you break down whether it's what you're looking for? Thanks!
This is such a great video, I never know what to look for.
Please post your skincare routine! ❤️
Awesome video Kenna thankyou!!
*checking all my skincare products as you’re talking* LOVED this video! Great info once again 🙌🏼
kenna, i would love to hear you address diy/handmade sun screen. so many are getting in on the indie market and think they can make sunscreen as well. there is no way to effectively test these concoctions or to have them blended in the correct way without specialized equipment, to be able to make such products at home. please advise followers to go with professionals for this step, whether they choose chemical or physical sun screen.
I love you videos and the effort you put in them 💖 Keep up the great work!
