I've heard this too, 1st time someone told me MAC makeup artist she said "be blessed with it, don't stress it," and she proceeded to give me the best tip...moisturize!
I just discovered this channel, I LOVE it! She's no nonsense and knows what she's doing, Her skin is gorgeous too, which doesn't hurt when teaching us about skin health!
im a guy and tried this routine with similar products and it worked so well. Being able to last a whole day without patting my face for oil is new to me lmao
Thank you Doc. This was really helpful. I'm 38 in 2 months and have super oily skin but I look 20yrs. Its a gift and a curse (especially professionally)
I appreciate you mentioning PCOS at the end of the video!! Fun fact, it was my dermatologist who was helping me with my acne when i was in high school who brought up PCOS to me and is the reason I got a proper diagnosis!
The most oily part of my face is my nose and I always seem to break out after drinking or having too sweet like sweet tea. I’m going to try updating my routine with these tips
Thanks for being honest with us, I have enjoyed and received much useful information from several of your videos. I am 50 and have always and still have oily skin. It has at times caused me to just feel gross about my skin.
@joyceb8174 Hi love, I have oily skin and I am 24, I cant imagine how frustrating it can be at your age. I have been consistently using niacinamide and I have seen great results. I have also been using tips from a FREE ebook that is linked here on my youtube profile. It talks about aging skin as well as oily skin, I hope you can check it out and I hope it helps🥰
I have oily skin and I'm sick of it. Especially during the summer. T zone and my cheeks are the worse. I'm just glad that I don't have acne and breakouts
I'm so happy to see this I have a serious problem with oily skin my nose is always shining with the oil coming from my skin I sometimes feel embarrassed in public The same goes for my acne I have almost tried everything possible for them to go away I even have acnes on my back and chest as well I don't even feel comfortable to wear any cloths that expose my body Plz help
I've been suffering from PIH, acne and oily skin for so long and I've been so desperate to find a medical professional with similar skin to mine talk about skin issues and I'm so happy I finally found you! This video was extremely educative and I'm definitely trying the things you mentioned.
If anyone is thinking of trying this skin care routine, I'm here to tell you to DO IT!!! I have been using the exact products that are mentioned, except using the ordinary niacidamide serum, and my skin is transforming! My oil is at bay, my pores look smaller, my texture and pigmentation is disappearing every day. I have had acne and large pores and oily skin since I was a young child and have spent thousands of dollars trying to find a skin care routine that works... from drug store to super high end products.. and nothing has worked as well as this! The face theory moisturizer is amazing, it does pill up a bit if you use too much, but it blurs my pores when I put it on and keeps my skin looking natural and satin like through the day!! While providing great hydration, of course. I thought the clarifying cleanser would clog my pores since it is more of a creamy formula, but if you let it sit on your skin for a minute after applying it has a chance to penetrate into your skin and leaves it looking so nice and not dry or stripped after. The retinol serum by cera ve is also a game changer, I've tried a few retinols that just irritate my skin or break me out, but this one is the perfect strength and I am able to use it every night without any irritation. Everyone's skin is different but I can't say enough good things about this routine, and if you're looking to manage your oily skin I highly recommend this!!! Thank you Dr Simi!!! 😊
Dr Simi, I want to thank you for this video. I've never understood much about my oily skin so I was doing everything wrong. I've been following the am and pm routine you mentioned for about a month and my skin has never looked better 😩 I'm using different products though but this seriously works really well for me. My acne was really bad and my skin was horribly oily but once I started moisturising in the am and pm and using a gentler cleanser m, my skin has become much much less oily. Thank you for the video!! You truly are an angel ahhh 💕💗
Hi Sharon. Thank you for sharing your experience with us. I’m so pleased that your skin has improved and I’m also pleased that you found my video helpful! 😊
I cannot wait to get these products to start to get to work on my face! I just ordered them all. I've been looking for a black dermatologist! Thanks for sharing.
@ alieuxcasey1860 Hi love, please keep us updated on your skincare journey. I also I have purchased some products and I can see a huge difference after using them consistently. I have also been using tips from a FREE ebook that is linked here on my youtube profile which are simple and so effective. If you need any advice please check it out. I hope this helps🥰
Thank you this was very helpful. Will be buying those products to try😊 my face gets so oily it’s very embarrassing and doesn’t feel nice on the skin either.
I’m new to the channel.. Hi 👋 I’m sure I’ll enjoy watching your videos while I do my skincare. I have oily skin AM routine: Cerave- Renewing SA cleanser, Rovectin- lotus water cream, then I finish with Black girl sunscreen kids SPF 50 PM routine: Cerave- foaming facial cleanser, Good light- Moon glow toning milk, Good molecules- hyaluronic acid, La Roche- Posay- Double repair face moisturizer, and Aklief (prescription retinol)
Steam your face to open up your pores, I always do it when I put on my face the Aztec Indian healing clay mask mixed with apple cider vinegar or water.let it dry then rinse, after that, I put a sheet mask in the freezer to cool and put it on my face to tighten up my pores I do it at least once a week, my pores are really small
@hassanlipoto-783 Hi love, the products do not bleach the skin. What happens is the products even out your skintone so you become brighter. I hope this helps. If you need more skincare tips, you can check out a FREE ebook that is linked on my profile here on youtube🥰
Peppermint/spearmint tea have really helped me! And at my worst, the medication Spirolactone that was prescribed by my dermatologist. Both of which lower androgen levels. I hope this helps someone!
I’m just starting to use the products that you mentioned for oily skin an d so far I am very pleased. Is there any additional products that I should be using for mature skin? I am 65 with pretty good skin and I would like to keep it that way.
@michelemaynard1966 I also use those products, and it has really helped. I advise using products that increase collagen, or taking foods that boost collagen production. Massaging my skin has also helped me. I have a FREE ebook linked here on my profile, it has advice on aging skin and it has helped me tremendously. you can check it out. I hope this helps🥰
Hello Dr. I don't know if this is a women only channel. I typed oily skin and ended up here. I would be grateful if you could help me also. I am a 39 yrs old man, having Indian origins( i dnt know if it's important to mention), living in a tropical island and i have oily skin and still get acnes at this age. Your advice will really help me out. Thank you.
My 9 year old sister struggles with heavily oily skin and textured acne filled skin and I wanted to buy some skin care for her. I wanted to ask if that retinol serum you mentioned is suitable for younger skin?
@janelisrivera Hi love, I wouldnt advice using retinol because retinol is for mature skin. I recommend using the ordinary niacinamide serum. You can also visit a dermatologist to see what other products you can use. For me, I used to have extremely oily skin when I was younger but I grew out of it. I hope this helps. If you need any more skincare tips, I have a FREE ebook linked on my profile here on youtube. I hope this helps🥰
I think your video/channel info is so helpful and I appreciate your intellect ~ I have pale & menopausal skin but even still !!!!! This is validating ❤
Dr Simi please make a video like this for dry skin. I also suffer from atopic dermatitis, and have no idea of what washing routine I should follow. Your vids are always amazing and easy to understand ❤
Amazing video. It’s great to understand the science behind oily skin and the right ingredients to look for in the products. Great to see a routine for AM and PM, really useful information. Thank you 🥰👍🏻
I loved this video! So informative and very detailed. My skin has gotten more oily than usually and I’ve been experiencing breakouts recently. I followed along taking notes in my notes app on my phone. I will be trying this skincare routine soon, I will provide an update when I start. Thank you for teaching💜
I have none of the 'characteristics of oily skin' besides excessive oil. My skin is clear, smooth and no hyperpigmentation. I just want to be able to wear makeup without an oil slick. Lol
Try a primer and/or setting spray. And if you opt for either Sephora & Ulta has a good selection of mini/smaller products in regard to trial & error versus purchasing larger size products to try. Good luck
I enjoyed this video! Thank you for the education. I would love to see a video on make up products(foundation, etc.) best for oily skin on dark tones that will not clog the pore. Your make up always looks flawless.
I have found that my breakouts are worse around my mouth & in my eyebrows. My sebum is really bad & I am wondering if shaving would help? I try to keep the hairs around my mouth & eyebrows plucked, but as soon as hair starts to grow, I will get thick, red breakout. I’ve tried f several things to remove hair because I have a lot of it. Thank you for your help & I really enjoyed your video.
So I've been going on using things I think my skin doesn't want, so now I'll try this recommended skin care routine. Some things have worked before but not for a long period of time
Wow, I have been struggling with oily skin and PIH for years and years, and I never knew benzoyl peroxide can make you more prone to PIH that's what my past dermatologist prescribed to me... Thank you so much for all the helpful info
@iluvme1123 it is extremely beneficial to use oil cleansing because it not only breaks down dirt but it also leaves the skin moisturized. If you need anymore skin care tips, there is a FREE ebook I have linked to my profile that has helped me so much. You can check it out. I hope it helps.🥰
At 45 my skin has literally turned into an oil slick. I’ve always had combo skin but now it’s oily all over 🤔 hormones probably but I can not find a moisturiser that suits me. I’ve wasted more money 😵. Thanks for the recommendations 👏🏼
Dr. Simi how would one take care of sensitive skin? I don't wear a lot of makeup and I just use Vaseline and coconut oil to keep my skin moist. I am cautious about the products that I use, but still having a few rashes and irritation.
I never really understand skincare until I watch this video thank you for this info! and also when and when can I add hyalironicacid to my skincare routine especially hyaloronicacid with vitamin c
Hi Dr. I'm Nigerian too. I have oily acne prone skin. Everything talks about oils hemp squalene, rosehip. Should people with our skin color use these oils? Does liquid make up also make out skin oily?
@RonandHerm Hi Love, the oils you have mentioned help with the acne but not the oily skin. I advise you use the oils after applying a moisturizer that is water based so that your skin is hydrated and also does not produce excess sebum. If you are looking for more skin care tips, I have a FREE ebook that is linked to my profile here on youtube. You can check it out. It has helped me alot so I hope this helps you too🥰
Hi Doctor Simi,i have oily skin and i have noticed that my skin loves Vaseline Petroleum Jelly as a moisturizer. Is there any science to it? Im trying to understand how my oily skin can love a greasy product. I love your channel😍😍
Thank you so much!! Could you please do a video on how the weather affects skin? I travel a lot and I recently messed up big time by using Castor oil because of oily skin and new humid weather. Aloevera is a miracle and possibly honey are the only things that worked so far
Hi doctor, thank you very much for your advices, I would like to know products I can use against stretch marks. Thank you for what you are doing, I'm learning so much through your videos. Looking forward for your response. 😘😘😘
Dr Simi It has been a while. Thank you for a new video. I really get into you teaching things that a lot of think we know but don't really know. Please try and keep posting. Hope your staying safe. P.S. If you can may you please do a video about different birth controls, the side effects and what people may expect
I have oily skin, and my skin really reacts well to benzoyl peroxyde and salicilyc acid. They helped me getting rid of acne. Even if this takes so much time but it torally worth it. Hydration also helped my skin alot into regulating sebum production.
@@dailydogsoftheinternet1321 yes, but I use them separatly because they shouldn't be mixed. I use benzoyl peroxyde every other night ( 3 times a week ) , and I use salicylic acid every morning ( and every night that where I don't use venzoyl peroxyde) + ( I have a toner that contains salycilic acid ) .
Dr. Simi I can't thank you enough for this video. It's only been a week and I have already noticed a huge difference. My face is no longer oily 🙌🏽 I look forward to more content from your channel 🙂
I have atopic skin with oily T-zone...so I must use separate products for my dry/sensitive eye area and my cheeks, and separate ones for the oily T-zone 😒 but I will definitely make use of the information you provided here 👍
have oily skin since I know myself,but around high school it got really worse,oily face with huge pores,greedy shine on forehead,not to mention trouble with my scalp,lack of hair growth. Ive been using vital pro products for three years for face and scalp-helped me a lot,but had to stop coz they were expensive plus my skin got immune to it,now I'm on Eveline ultra purifying wash gel and Eveline facial wash gel that can be used as scrub and mask. they are doing wonders for me
Great video! How do u think of oil cleansing for oily skin? I’ve heard it could be actually better to not use an oil and stick with micellar. Or does it work for some?..
Hyaluronic acid has done so much for my face. But only 100 % HA in gel form is the best. Any cream that just 'contains' HA haven't come near the pure stuff. Thanks for the tips, Dr! 🙏🌷
Please do a video on treating oily dehydrated skin. It's so frustrating because what helps one issue makes the other worse. Creamy cleansers prevent dehydration but they're not cleansing enough and lead to clogged pores. I can't use an exfoliant either because you're meant to avoid actives. So how do I cleanse my oily skin?
Changed up my skin care routine about 10days ago and I seem to be breaking out. Everyone is telling me to stick with it because it's my skins getting used to it. Do you agree? X
I have battled with acne since puberty. I am currently try the following routine. I have been on for 2.5 weeks now. AM Cleanse w/sa wash Cleanse w/BP wash Toner w/Niacinamide 2.5% BP leave on Moisturizer Sun screen PM Cleanse as AM Toner w/niacinamide 2% SA leave on Moisturizer
I have tried so many products that I gave up on it but you just brought back the confidence and trust I needed it. I’ll try on these products and routine… let’s hope for the best, thank you!!
Thank you 🙏🏾 great advice. I am incorporating many of these steps for my oily skin routine and it’s working. But I definitely would like to incorporate the la roche posay 50+ spf and the a few of the face therapy products. Great job explaining each products purpose and your akin care routine. This is very helpful. Any suggestions on products best for getting rid of hyperpigmentation from acne scars?
It would be really nice if you could suggest products that work well for the morning and evening. Normally we have to buy these products online and it can be really pricey since I live in South Africa. You are indeed very beautiful!
Can I get your thoughts on using kojic acid soap to even skin tone and long term safety. Been using it for a while and has been the only product that has help me with my oily blemish skin.
Thank you Dr Simi. I've been suffering from the following; Tan face, acne, clogged pores around the cheek, pimples dark spots. I tried lots of products but I just went from bad to worse😢 My skin is both oily and sensitive. Please what products can help? Should I get these ones you mentioned? I live in Nigeria so that's also a problem, getting these exact products over here might be challenging.
I love her videos so much🤩 and this one struck near and dear to my heart. Thanks so much. I have struggled all my life with acne and very oily skin. I now know what to look for in products. Never had anything explained in such a way before and i appreciate it very much.
Thank you for this educational video. I really like that you incorporate all kinds of skin tones and types into your videos. Although I don’t have black skin, I’m really interested in learning about other skin types as well and how different kind of products are received by different kinds of skin colors and types. I do have a combination skin and really sensitive and acne prone as well. I used to think i had oily skin, but after trying so many different kind of products, I finally found the products that work for me and don’t make me oily anymore. Just a little in the T-zone and dryer around my cheeks and next to my nose. I have been using the products from Esse for about 2 years now and it really calmed my skin down. I still have acne, but not as severe as it used to be. I also prefer using products that are great for sensitive skin(like the Esse sensitive cleaner & moisturizer) but still affective for my combination and acne prone skin. But I would really like to know; maybe you could use this topic in a next video: how to clear acne scars and redness without retinol. (I tried Differin before but it was way too harsh for my super reactive/sensitive skin, it was so painful). Hope you can take that into account:) Thank you and keep going! 🤗☀️
Sometimes I feel like I can cook a meal with the amount of oil my face makes 😫
summer is the worst time, my skin gets extremely oily..
Yes, I can totally relate! 😀
I feel u. During the summer I'm super shiny
Hi Dr Simi, what is the best way to contact you to book a consultation for keloid treatment? Thank you
@@DrSimiAdedeji may you please make a video going into detail about sebaceous hyperplasia please!😭😭😭😭
I’ve been using this exact skin care routine for a month and my skin has NEVER been this good for this long 💖
Do you think I should try this?? I’m scared to breakout and does it reduce the sebum production?
What skin care routine?Can you share?I have oily skin too.
Retinol (vit A), salicylic acid, benzoyl peroxide, niacinamide (vit B3), hyaluronic acid; cleanse, treat, moisturize, & sunscreen
The prettiest doctor I ever seen 😍
You must be blind
@@lorettayoung3088 well that's unnecessary
@@lorettayoung3088 I feel like people without a profile picture shouldn’t be talking 😐…….. anyways
@@lorettayoung3088 she's not blind. it's you that must not have taste. you should see a doctor for that problem
I have heard oily skin ages slower, so have taken it as a blessing 🤣
Yeah, but it's not worth popping pimples in your 30s.
And what if you have combination skin (oily and dry)?
I've heard this too, 1st time someone told me MAC makeup artist she said "be blessed with it, don't stress it," and she proceeded to give me the best tip...moisturize!
Yes, same
I have a very oily skin but I have fought pimple battles on and off. Huh....

Think you could talk about how to minimize the appearance of large pores? Awesome video btw!! :)
I had the same problem and what helped me was the Inkey List salicylic acid cleanser and niacinamine from the ordinary 😉
I agree, i have been struggling with large pores for years
Steam your face to open up your pores, I always do it when I put on my face the Aztec Indian healing clay mask mixed with apple cider vinegar or water.let it dry then rinse, after that, I put a sheet mask in the freezer to cool and put it on my face to tighten up my pores
I do it at least once a week, my pores are really small
Can you do a video specifically for Acne?
Awesome information..I’m extremely oily and I’m extremely hairy (face,chest,stomach,legs) and I suffer from scarring alopecia
Ohhh 🤔 True to that. Hydrate the skin, so it doesn't overload in producing oil.
This is wat i have yearning for
Thanks doctor

So I've been going on using things I think my skin doesn't want, so now I'll try this recommended skin care routine.
Some things have worked before but not for a long period of time
Wow, I have been struggling with oily skin and PIH for years and years, and I never knew benzoyl peroxide can make you more prone to PIH that's what my past dermatologist prescribed to me... Thank you so much for all the helpful info
Would it be beneficial to use an oil cleanser for the first cleanser in the double cleansing?
@iluvme1123 it is extremely beneficial to use oil cleansing because it not only breaks down dirt but it also leaves the skin moisturized. If you need anymore skin care tips, there is a FREE ebook I have linked to my profile that has helped me so much. You can check it out. I hope it helps.🥰
I NEEDED THIS VIDEO!!! Thank you so much!! & I love understanding the science behind everything which is why I love this channel!
At 45 my skin has literally turned into an oil slick. I’ve always had combo skin but now it’s oily all over 🤔 hormones probably but I can not find a moisturiser that suits me. I’ve wasted more money 😵. Thanks for the recommendations 👏🏼
Hi can you talk about seborrheic dermatitis next? Thank you
I find that Sali-res helps a lot with my only skin. It even cleared up my son's acne.
Dr. Simi how would one take care of sensitive skin? I don't wear a lot of makeup and I just use Vaseline and coconut oil to keep my skin moist. I am cautious about the products that I use, but still having a few rashes and irritation.
🥳🥳🥳 for oily skin......less wrinkles that's one good news.
Yes definitely!
I never really understand skincare until I watch this video thank you for this info! and also when and when can I add hyalironicacid to my skincare routine especially hyaloronicacid with vitamin c
Hi Dr. I'm Nigerian too. I have oily acne prone skin. Everything talks about oils hemp squalene, rosehip. Should people with our skin color use these oils? Does liquid make up also make out skin oily?
@RonandHerm Hi Love, the oils you have mentioned help with the acne but not the oily skin. I advise you use the oils after applying a moisturizer that is water based so that your skin is hydrated and also does not produce excess sebum. If you are looking for more skin care tips, I have a FREE ebook that is linked to my profile here on youtube. You can check it out. It has helped me alot so I hope this helps you too🥰
Hi Doctor Simi,i have oily skin and i have noticed that my skin loves Vaseline Petroleum Jelly as a moisturizer. Is there any science to it? Im trying to understand how my oily skin can love a greasy product. I love your channel😍😍
Thank you so much!! Could you please do a video on how the weather affects skin? I travel a lot and I recently messed up big time by using Castor oil because of oily skin and new humid weather. Aloevera is a miracle and possibly honey are the only things that worked so far
Hi doctor, thank you very much for your advices, I would like to know products I can use against stretch marks. Thank you for what you are doing, I'm learning so much through your videos. Looking forward for your response. 😘😘😘
Hi! I will be posting a video on stretch marks very soon! Hopefully this will answer many of your questions. Thank you for your support. ❤️
Hello Dr. Simi, is exfoliation important for oily skin? If so, any recommendations? Thank you :)
Doctor can you please do a video on the perfect creams and pomade for black skin and chocolate skin.
I've been using the bazac gel and it helps ...I added mine into my face lotion so it's not as dehydrating
Dr Simi
It has been a while. Thank you for a new video. I really get into you teaching things that a lot of think we know but don't really know. Please try and keep posting. Hope your staying safe.
P.S. If you can may you please do a video about different birth controls, the side effects and what people may expect
I have oily skin, and my skin really reacts well to benzoyl peroxyde and salicilyc acid. They helped me getting rid of acne. Even if this takes so much time but it torally worth it. Hydration also helped my skin alot into regulating sebum production.
Thank you for sharing this! I know it will be helpful for many watching this video! 😊
Did you use both ??
@@dailydogsoftheinternet1321 yes, but I use them separatly because they shouldn't be mixed. I use benzoyl peroxyde every other night ( 3 times a week ) , and I use salicylic acid every morning ( and every night that where I don't use venzoyl peroxyde) + ( I have a toner that contains salycilic acid ) .
Dr. Simi I can't thank you enough for this video. It's only been a week and I have already noticed a huge difference. My face is no longer oily 🙌🏽 I look forward to more content from your channel 🙂
I have atopic skin with oily T-zone...so I must use separate products for my dry/sensitive eye area and my cheeks, and separate ones for the oily T-zone 😒 but I will definitely make use of the information you provided here 👍
Lovely skincare guide! Thank you for your high quality educational content! 🙏🏼 Greetings from Brazil
Please can oily skin use Cerave hydrating facial cleanser?
have oily skin since I know myself,but around high school it got really worse,oily face with huge pores,greedy shine on forehead,not to mention trouble with my scalp,lack of hair growth. Ive been using vital pro products for three years for face and scalp-helped me a lot,but had to stop coz they were expensive plus my skin got immune to it,now I'm on Eveline ultra purifying wash gel and Eveline facial wash gel that can be used as scrub and mask. they are doing wonders for me
Great video! How do u think of oil cleansing for oily skin? I’ve heard it could be actually better to not use an oil and stick with micellar.
Or does it work for some?..
I wanted to ask about toners and face masks what are your recommendations?
Hyaluronic acid has done so much for my face. But only 100 % HA in gel form is the best. Any cream that just 'contains' HA haven't come near the pure stuff.
Thanks for the tips, Dr! 🙏🌷
Please do a video on treating oily dehydrated skin. It's so frustrating because what helps one issue makes the other worse. Creamy cleansers prevent dehydration but they're not cleansing enough and lead to clogged pores. I can't use an exfoliant either because you're meant to avoid actives. So how do I cleanse my oily skin?
I have used all these products after your suggestion and my skin has never been better so thank you very much 😃
Hi, So glad to hear this! ❤️
Changed up my skin care routine about 10days ago and I seem to be breaking out. Everyone is telling me to stick with it because it's my skins getting used to it. Do you agree? X
No
Updates?
Thanks.... But I have a question.... How do you reduce too much pimples on the face?

Cleanse w/BP wash

Thank you I like to use my active cleansers at night is it ok to switch up routine ?
Please do video for combination skin 😌
I have tried so many products that I gave up on it but you just brought back the confidence and trust I needed it. I’ll try on these products and routine… let’s hope for the best, thank you!!
Updates?
Thank you 🙏🏾 great advice. I am incorporating many of these steps for my oily skin routine and it’s working. But I definitely would like to incorporate the la roche posay 50+ spf and the a few of the face therapy products. Great job explaining each products purpose and your akin care routine. This is very helpful. Any suggestions on products best for getting rid of hyperpigmentation from acne scars?
It would be really nice if you could suggest products that work well for the morning and evening. Normally we have to buy these products online and it can be really pricey since I live in South Africa.
You are indeed very beautiful!
Can I get your thoughts on using kojic acid soap to even skin tone and long term safety. Been using it for a while and has been the only product that has help me with my oily blemish skin.
Yes for some reason Kojic works for me too
Thank you Dr Simi.
I've been suffering from the following;
Tan face, acne, clogged pores around the cheek, pimples dark spots.
I tried lots of products but I just went from bad to worse😢
My skin is both oily and sensitive. Please what products can help? Should I get these ones you mentioned?
I live in Nigeria so that's also a problem, getting these exact products over here might be challenging.
Please i need more direction on this my skin is really sensitive and oily
I love her videos so much🤩 and this one struck near and dear to my heart. Thanks so much. I have struggled all my life with acne and very oily skin. I now know what to look for in products. Never had anything explained in such a way before and i appreciate it very much.
Thank you!
Thank you for this educational video. I really like that you incorporate all kinds of skin tones and types into your videos. Although I don’t have black skin, I’m really interested in learning about other skin types as well and how different kind of products are received by different kinds of skin colors and types.
I do have a combination skin and really sensitive and acne prone as well. I used to think i had oily skin, but after trying so many different kind of products, I finally found the products that work for me and don’t make me oily anymore. Just a little in the T-zone and dryer around my cheeks and next to my nose. I have been using the products from Esse for about 2 years now and it really calmed my skin down. I still have acne, but not as severe as it used to be. I also prefer using products that are great for sensitive skin(like the Esse sensitive cleaner & moisturizer) but still affective for my combination and acne prone skin.
But I would really like to know; maybe you could use this topic in a next video: how to clear acne scars and redness without retinol. (I tried Differin before but it was way too harsh for my super reactive/sensitive skin, it was so painful). Hope you can take that into account:)
Thank you and keep going! 🤗☀️
My dad has really oily skin so I was blessed with it my mom Said am so oily prob I may never get rinkles b cuz my face is always moist
