I have had the same kind of skin that Jo has since I was 12years old, I'm now 47 and still get outbreaks, have a nose and chin covered with blackheads and ooze oil like a texas oil field. I have been so mortified by it for well over 35 years. I have scarring like you wouldn't believe. I now have a new form of acne, hidradenitis suppurativa around some areas which I am to embarassed to tell you. I would love one of those pillows, even helping the skin on my cheeks would be something to behold. I currently use The Ordinary's skin products to help with my cystic acne, but the damage has been done and my facial skin is truely horrible. I hate the adverts on TV that tell you to love the skin you're in!
Even though I’ll be 60 this month I STILL get the occasional breakout!! Aaarrrggh! I guess being so oily has helped me have fewer wrinkles though. I remember Clearasil!! Never seemed to deliver what it promised. Great ideas ladies! I appreciate it! 💝💝
How refreshing to hear someone inside the beauty industry speak truthfully about their skin struggles. I’m 48 and have had acne for 35 years. I also used everything from peroxide mixtures to roaccutane from my early teenage years and feel this video with resonate with many people. I now have menopausal acne...it seems there is no end in sight! I have changed my pillowcase every night for several years and feel it helps on some level. I would love to try the silk pillow and let you know the outcome.
I’ve suffered from breakouts my entire life, and while I have been able to find a few products that helped, it’s made my skin incredibly sensitive. So sensitive that sometimes I wake up with random and painful, red patches. As a side sleeper I also smash my face into the pillow and get the lovely creases in my face. Lol. While I am by no means a pink girl, I would love it if I won. Thanks again for a great video Nadine! I’m gonna try the IT CC as it seems it fits all skin types! Love having Jo and Yogi in the videos!
Praise Paula's BHA. It's a life changing product. She never gets the praise that she deserves for her formulations. Her cleansers are all I can use to deal with tenacious sunscreen. I love a number of SkinMedica products, but so much that Paula makes is in a class all themselves.
I had awful skin when I was 18. I tried everything but there were so few products available. I talked to people with my hand over my chin as this was my problem area. Eventually it did clear up but in my head I will always have that 18 year old skin so my heart goes out to people who suffer from bad skin. It just saps your confidence and you become slightly obsessed. Hopefully this video will give any sufferers hope. I would love the silk pillowcase as I’ve now developed that other problem - you wake up and your face is saggy and stays that way half the morning! Babies don’t know how lucky they are!
I’m 39 (almost 40) and am just coming out the other side of adult acne. I missed that as a teen, and now the buggers are paying me back. So not only am I ‘fighting ageing’, ya know, dull, loose skin, wrinkles, yada yada, but I’m also fighting the nasty little marks that these spots are leaving. In the words of Hugh Grant in Notting Hill, I think that deserves a brownie (Slip pillow sheet). Nadine, FYI your channel has changed my life!
I've been contemplating the purchase of this pillowcase for a while now. I've suffered from sensitive, acne-prone skin for as long as I can remember. I'm unable to take the contraceptive pill because it triggers my anxiety and I have a family history of blood clotting disorders. I've also just had a baby. I'm in my early 30s now and I too am a devoted fans of it cosmetics CC cream and gel products. I'm 6 months in to testing adapalene with very pleasing results. I'd be thrilled to discover a pillow case that doesn't harm my skin. I currently change my pillowcases every other day due to my sensitivity. Thank you so much for this series and for the opportunity 🙏
I have become utterly addicted to beauty pie. I just dove into their cleansers and I now have three of them and absolutely love all three. Because I'm spending quite a bit of money with beauty pie you introduced me to beauty pie, I feel like I should get a pillowcase. I have been struggling with breakouts since I turned 42 and having wrinkles and pimples at the same time is demoralizing. I just started curology and I feel like it has started to make a difference. Love your videos Nadine
I‘m 30 and recently got breakouts again and I‘m constantly picking at my skin, on the bumps and the dry flaky bits. My self-confidence is completely gone, I‘m hiding most of the time behind a scarf, my hair or simply in my apartment. I‘m definitely going to try some of your recommendations and would be really happy about one of these pillowcases. Thanks to both of you for making such informative and funny videos!
This video is EVERYTHING! ✨ I really relate with jo! Wow! I’m 23 years old and the only way I can describe my skin “A Confused Skin” My skin can be dry, oily, dehydrated.. sensitive.. acne prone.. congested. You name it I’ve got it x I never feel like I fit into one category of “skin type” and I’ve actually had people tell me this. It’s bloody hard work but I do a good job of keeping it under control x I’ve always been intrigued with the silk pillow but always assumed it would benefit a more mature skin type.. maybe it would work for me after all? X Thankyou for all the info! You literally save my life!✨✨
I've had acne for 15 years. I also love buying reusable beauty products that will last a lifetime, no matter what the price (just bought a Mason Pearson brush). A silk pillowcase will be perfect for my collection for so many reasons. Thank you!
Wow! I have been suffering from acne for 6 years now (15-21), currently undergoing a treatment of prescription tretinoin 0.1%. My skin is flaky, peeling and irritated and this pillowcase just sounds like a dream on my poor retin-A face! I am persistent with changing my pillowcases but this honestly sounds like it will help so much with the sensitivity whilst sleeping. I love you Nadine and keep up the amazing content! mwah xo
This was very informative. Thank you. I have been suffering with bad skin since I was 11 years old and now that I am 25, I feel like it is really showing the damage. I feel very insecure about even going to the supermarket, and no matter what I do I feel like I need a layer of foundation to give me enough confidence to even leave the house. The silk pillow case is something I would like to try. Thank you
I'd love to be on the list for pillowcase! I've had problematic skin since my early twenties, with under the skin cystic bumps across my cheeks, chin and forehead when I'm stressed. It's hormonal but stress brings on an outbreak that can take months to calm down. I can really relate to Jo, and her comments about 'but your skin looks good right now'- such a frustrating thing to be told!! My skin has in the past really affected my mental wellbeing and confidence- and many treatments burn the skin or destroy the moisture barrier. I'm really careful with towels and bedding etc but even when my skin is 'good' it is still slightly congested. I love seeing you two together, and hearing about other people's stories and skin journeys! Megan x
Hi Nadine, I’m so glad you got Jo back - I love you two together!! I’d love a pillowcase because I’m 17 and have had mild acne for a few years now and even though I know it could be a lot worse I am still self-conscious about it and hate not wearing makeup so if the pillowcase could make even a small difference I would be so happy. Thank you xx
Just came across this video. Love you ladies! I had bad skin in my late 20's early 30's and I started using Proactive. It was super harsh on my skin but thankfully after 2-3 years my skin improved. Now I use a mild cleanser, drug store moisture cream at night only then rinse my face with warm water only in the morning and it has made such a huge difference in my skin. Less has been more for my situation. Jo you are beautiful.
My skin journey....I didn’t start with cystic acne until after I had my second child. I was in my early 30s. It was so bad and I had no idea how to manage it. I now have major scarring and have just started accutane. My skin is now extra dry and sensitive but I think it is working. I have only been using this for 3 months but it looks promising. I am now 47 and hope a silk pillow case will help with the many new wrinkles now appearing and also with the sensitive skin I am now dealing with. Love these types of videos. Keep them coming. Thanks
Really found that useful, thank you. I've been on Roaccutane 3 times and still have problem skin. I love it when you're talking to someone and they say..'Oh your poor face.' That makes your day. I would love a silk pillow case, if poss please.
You ladies make me giggle... I love the information you share and how down-to-earth you are. You certainly compliment one another. I recall using a silk pillowcase when I was a much younger girl to keep my curlers in overnight for Sunday Church! What fond memories! Perhaps it's time for me to try one again. It sounds like a worthwhile investment... just another step in my skincare routine.
I love you two. More like this in the future please. I made myself silk pillowcases about 4 years ago. Not for acne, but to reduce the wrinkling caused by sleeping on my front. They really work well.
Loved this, thank you! I have had cystic, hormonal acne since I was 17 and now at 35 am SO over it. The pill was great and the only magical cure, until I had to stop taking it due to migraines. Nothing has worked since. I am going to try all of these products, THANK YOU both, loved the chat and the advice!
I am 26 and have a condition called Pyoderma Faciale, which basically consists of angry cystic lumps appearing only on my face. I've had this for around 4 years now and have tried numerous oral antibiotics, creams, diet changes and thousands of different products! My dermatologist has now told me that we have "exhausted all options" and I left my most recent appointment feeling completely defeated! I have thought about silk pillow slips before and have struggled to find them or unfortunately the ones I have found have seemed to be quite expensive - which has resulted in talking myself out of purchasing and telling myself that they probably won't help anyway or couldn't possibly be worth the money! However, it would be amazing to have a chance to try them. Even if the only benefit is they are more gentle on my skin which often wakes me up at night from being so painful! Thanks so much for posting vidoes on topics like these. There is an overwhelming amount of information on the internet on ways to treat conditions such as acne and those similar (although not so much on mine which is great!) but your channel is so honest!
Dear Nadine, I think every woman deserves a clear, nice skin so if there is anything which could help I would go for it 😘 Thank you for your smart and helpful videos and wish you good luck in everything you do 🍀
I would love a pillowcase. Always had good skin then developed psoriasis in my 30s. So between that, using steroid creams and uvb treatment my skin has taken a bit of a battering. Now getting to “a certain age” getting hormonal breakouts that I never had luckily at puberty. I try to look after my skin as best I can and would love to try the slip. Thanks ladies. Been loving your collaborations 😍
I’ve had hormonal acne for over 10 years, and feel like I’ve tried everything! I’ve been to see my GP many times and all they recommend is a Benzoyl Peroxide gel which I’ve been slathering on my face for years and still get the same acne ‘beard’😩 I have the contraceptive implant and still get these hormonal breakouts, and also get spots on my back. Loved to see a video about acne/spots from someone who actually suffers with it, thank you!!!
Such an informative video! As someone who has suffered from acne since I was a teenager, I have tried so many different products to combat and soothe my problematic skin. It's so difficult when you think a product is so good, but a little while later I'll still get breakouts. So frustrating. I would love love love to try out the silk pillowcase but it's just so out of my budget to even consider spending that much. I've tried clearing up my diet and exercising which really helped at first and it's given me a stronger body (yayy) but my acne still hasn't cleared up. I've decided I'm going to strip back my skincare and makeup to the bare essentials and see how I get along xxx Thanks again for all the tips and advice
Thank you so much for this video Nadine and Jo! I am so intrigued by these pillowcases - please put me on the list! Listening to Jo talk about her troubled skin - which sounds identical to mine, angry spots all the time but also dry skin everywhere - was really heartening. Few of the beauty bloggers who I follow have skin like mine, and it is so powerful to hear from someone successful in the industry talking about these kinds of problems, and with so much honesty. I'm ready to try all of the above but, as a PhD student, the Slip pillowcase is slightly out of my budget! I'll have my fingers crossed :)
I feel your pain. It's such an emotional issue too - it effects self confidence, self worth - sometimes you just want to hide your face away. I'm convinced my skin is why I wear my hair long - so I can hide behind it when I need to. Anyway try the BHA - you will not look back, I promise. Try with the travel version first as it's £7. You will notice the difference after one night. And visit charity shops looking for 100% silk shirts and wrap them around your pillow - that's what my nan used to do and swore by it.
It is hugely emotional yes, especially as my skin has a tendency to flare up just when I don't need it too, adding to stress and lacking self-confidence. Thank you so much for the amazing tips, I will definitely be trying all of the above!
I would love to have one of those pillowcases for my husband. He has suffered from cystic acne, pustules, blackheads, scarring and redness since he was in high school. He has mentioned so many times that he thinks his pillowcase “spreads” it and I have always ignored him! He would be thrilled with one of these and I do think it would help after hearing it from you guys 😋 we are newlyweds and don’t have a lot of spare money so I would love to be able to try it out before spending the £90!!! thank you Nadine, love your videos! XX
Love this video series with Jo. She is such a source of information. I don't know that I deserve a pillowcase. No one deserves something for free. I have long heard the benefits though of them toted and would love to try them myself. Thank you as always for your videos.
I was on dianette pill for years for my skin. My skin was great but my mood swings were terrible. When I came off I finally felt like myself again. When I came to conceive I had real trouble. The fertility doctor said being on dianette for as long probably contributed to my pcos. Being on it is the biggest regret of my life. I know it probably won’t happen to everyone but just for a wee bit of balance sorry. Love the videos. You two are a hoot!!
I have struggled with acne (made worse by skin picking disorder) for 2/3rds of my life, how sad is that. Korean skincare has been a godsend because of their emphasis on being gentle with the skin and layering hydration. Plus, pimple patches! Omg! Wish those had been around when I was in high school. I used to absolutely punish my skin when I was younger, just like you ladies mentioned. Skincare has come such a long way and I'm so glad I can now give actual good advice and products to my niece, hopefully she will never suffer the way I did feeling miserable and hopeless. It really does affect your confidence, especially having acne as an adult, I often feel like people judge me or don't take me seriously because of it. But my skin is so much better now, I can count the number of spots I have at any given time on one hand! I do wonder how much of it is just my skin naturally becoming drier with age tho.
The pillow case looks so lovely! I have the most sensitive skin with rosacea, hormonal acne and aging skin. I'd love to be able to leave the house without a ton of make up!
you two together are so much fun to learn from. could have used the silk pillowcase just last night! this 56 year old went to work today with pillowcase creases on face - fortunately no one said anything! hello to yogi!
This was really helpful. My oily skin changed to dry, sensitive skin in my 40s. I change my pillow case every 3 days to help keep my skin from reacting. I would love to try the pillow case to see if it helps with wrinkles and sensitivities. Thank you!
Hello Nadine and Jo! First, I wanted to thank you so much for this video. I have been struggling with cystic acne and massive spot breakouts for the last fifteen years and have had the most difficult time finding products, even those recommended by my dermatologist, that would treat my spots but not enrage my dry and sensitive skin. I really can't wait to try these recommendations and would love to see if the silk pillow case could work for me! I have spots on my cheeks, just like Jo used to, and would really like to take on the three-night test to see if they could be helped. Even if I'm not chosen, I just want to thank you both for telling your stories and for making those that suffer from acne know that they aren't alone in their fight and that there are products out there that will help! You are both amazing and so fun to watch! Thank you thank you! :)
Love this vlog thank you... Jo's story resonates with me so much... I actually always dreamt of working in the beauty industry, but felt ashamed to ever follow that dream due to my awful skin that started to break out as soon as I hit puberty and like Jo I used Quinoderm, also Clearasil, TCP, toothpaste, lemon juice, Dettol, Tar soaps, there were none of the products available now back then.... I had lovely olive toned skin as a child, by the time I reached my late teens all the various products reduced my skin tone to the colour of wall paper paste and I still had spots :-( I'm so glad to have got older, in my late 40's my skin stopped being so problematic and although I still get the odd small pimple its nothing like it used to be....but I still have to wear foundation everyday to look half decent....People don't realise the effect acne/blemishes can have on a person..... I'm so much happier now I'm older and don't have to deal with the constant anxiety of having to deal with breakouts....Dealing with wrinkles is nothing compared to dealing with bad skin. I use just a bit of Freederm now as and when needed luckily its nothing like Quinoderm which used to bleach the bed linen, clothes, every damn thing. Thank you for sharing the product tips :-) Would love a silk pillow case....tad expensive though lol x x x
I hear you - your story sounds so similar to mine. God knows what we've done to our skin over the years with all those harsh products we've shoved on it. I even remember using pure witch hazel on my skin for a few weeks - what an idiot!
I am 48 and had adult acne until I learnt what works for me. It took me until about the age of 40 to live life without acne. I’d love to try the pillow case please, as I’d like to keep the wrinkles at bay as much as possible! xx
My daughter is 13 and is feeling so insecure, I really feel like I’m not winning on any product but don’t want to use her skin as a lab if you know what I mean, would really help to get her confidence back, thank you for all the tips ladies x
The pillowcase idea is so clever. I'm a 16 year old boy and ive had very acne prone skine since I was 12. Everything I've tried hasn't changed it and it's constantly breaking out. I am in the beauty industry through social media and my skin is constantly a problem for makeup and when at photo shoots. This would be such an amazing product to try as there is no way I could afford a product like this but it would be fantastic to try
I loved this video! Thank you jo about being so honest about your skin! I’ve had acne since being 13 and I’m now 29! I’ve been on roaccutane and came off it in January, but my skin is just getting worse and worse. It honestly feel hopeless. Nadine I would love to see you do a video for people who are on/have been on roaccutane. ☺️
Hello Nadine and Jo, I'm nearly 42 and I have had acne for almost 30 years, ever since I was 12... and I now have to fight against wrinkles as well ! So I would love to have the opportunity to try this amazing and somewhat magic pillow case. Have a beautiful day !
I have acne, a toddler, a full time job, and have been fighting a sinus infection and bronchitis all week. This pillowcase would make my month! And I’m not picky on color!
Hi Nadine, would love one of these pillow cases! After having recently moved from Asia to Canada my skin is in turmoil..... The change of climate and my age (46) seems to be a sudden stressor for my skin. I have been watching all your back catalogue of videos and accumulating many many useful tips.Thank you for all that you do in teaching and sharing your in-depth knowledge so we all have more resources at our fingertips so we can present our best selves to the world. X
I’ve had acne since I was 14. I’m 59 now. We have to be so careful because acne sufferers have an impaired skin barrier. I found Paula’s Choice BHA Exfoliant 3 weeks ago and love, love, love it. Thank you for what you are saying about oil cleansers. I can’t use them and I thought it was just me.
I’ve literally spent the last 15 minutes attacking my face (Nadine - don’t kill me)! I’ve always wanted to try a silk pillowcase as I think the idea is genious. Jo is just fabulous - it makes such a difference coming from someone who actually suffers and knows what it’s like to suffer (she’s beautiful)! X
What an amazing giveaway. I have suffered from problematic skin from my teens. Each time I’ve came off the pill to have my children it gets ten times worse. I am still trying to find the perfect concoction of products to help my skin. The older I get the more I am learning. I have taken so much advice from this video and the pillow case would help me greatly on my journey.
Silk pillow cases is such an out there idea for me. My skin can be very reactive and it's not a piece of advice I've heard before. On top of spots I also get the challenge of ingrown hair and reactions to shaving so it's something I'd really love to try.
Nadine; you have introduced me to so many products that have saved my life ( IT cosmetic CC cream, cicaplast lips; glossier concealer; Paula’s choice body lotion to name only a few! Love your content: informative, funny & honest. Therefore, would absolutely love trying this pillow case. I have adult acne on my cheeks like Jo and maybe this would solve my problem....pretty please, save me once again!
I take the PC BHA everywhere I go-love it! And I adore the It Cosmetics CC Creme but I apply with a dampened beauty blender when I want a lighter coverage. It really is a genius product and doesn't make me breakout or trigger my rosacea.
Hi Nadine! I would LOVE one of those pillow cases because I’m a 40 year old single mum with a beautiful 4 year old son who has cerebral palsy and autism. I’m wrinkly because I’m quite often stressed (!!) and sleep is something I don’t get enough of because my little boy wakes a lot in the night and it’s just me and him, so I’m often sleep deprived...😴. I love your channel and you’re my skincare guru! Lots of love, Fiona&Zander Haines❤️
Why do I deserve a silk pillowcase? Because I'm a beauty nag 😂😂 but also because I'm peri-menopausal so I'm in that sweet spot of hormonal break outs vs saggy lack of collagen skin, God I love my body!! So nice to finally see someone talking about skincare who doesn't have dry skin - so much content for you dry peeps out there about layering on oils and luxurious creams so it's great to have some recommendations for us sensitive/combo types!
Ive had acne since I was 12. I did roaccutane at 23, it cleared up for a couple of years and then it got back (lighter, thankfully). It left me with other problems for life. I’m 38, and I have to deal with hormonal acne, and the skin’s clock doesn’t stop, so lack of elasticity and wrinkles are on my agenda. I diligently take care of my skin, with vitamin C, acids, retinol and tonnes of hyaluronic (it’s dehydrated). But I still need all the help I can get to prevent the breakout beard. Thanks for this video, Nadine, I’ll probably give the salicylic a try, although from other brands that I’ve tried it leaves my skin peeling a bit...
I neeeeeed that pillowcase! 48, clinging to the edge keeping the wrinkles away! Occasional perimenopause breakouts on chin plus keeping the fine lines away, this is what I need! I DREAM of skin like Nadine's! I don't care what color either!! XOX
I would LOVE to try the silk pillowcase! I'm 29 and for the last ten years or so I have had constant mountainous spots on my chin and cheek! I've pretty sensitive skin and don't get on with oils or acids. I'm trying to use the most gentle products at the moment so the idea of some pure silk helping me out is very appealing!!
Love this video, so refreshing to see troubled skin talked about so openly from someone who actually suffers with it 😊 I've been suffering with adult cystic acne for about a year now and am currently taking Roaccutane. I'm hoping they will help but would love to try the silk pillowcase as my skin has become so sensitive. Really need to try the CC cream too, you both look gorgeous in it!
Wow thts really nice of her to give out silk pillow cases...I'm 30 and I have got PCOS....I get really bad cystic acne around my mouth and jaw line....
hello to both of you beautiful ladies! I'm 21 and I struggled with my skin for 10+ years now. acne played a huge part in my life and I definitely felt the lack of confidence because of it... only now I'm starting to feel comfortable in my own skin. unfortunately, most things that you talk about aren't available here in Russia or they aren't in my preferable price range at the moment, but I really do appreciate these videos 'cause I always try to improve my skin care, so I would love to to try out the silk pillow case and see the possible difference. again, thank you for doing what you do for all of us 💛
I've added the lot to my wishlist! This was the best video I've watched about acne. I've had it since I was about 28 and I WISH I'd bumped into you two before my wedding :( Needless to say, I'm now 34, with a baby and back in acne hell. I hadn't really clicked how many things I've been doing wrong.....layering it all on, using glycolic acids, using a bloody crap pillowcase! Anyway, thanks! xx
I've fought cystic acne for many many years and just recently has it calmed down, thankfully . Still, ' d love to try the silk pillow. Thanks for this wonderful, informative talk, ladies
I would love to try the pillowcase, my story is very similar, having suffered with acne since being 12 and still as an adult now with rosacea, and trying to cover it up with make up. I have tried to embrace my skin since turning 40, but it has taken me a long time to feel happy with my skin 😊
Thank you both for sharing this video, the comment about when people comment on your skin being good (at the moment) is so relatable, something that has been said to me and it is never taken as a compliment. As a 22 year old at university I am often surrounded by friends with near perfect skin, even if I look after my skin better, eat better, drink less alcohol yet still my skin is never even close to perfect. I would love the chance to try a pillow case and see if it makes a difference. After using the ordinary salicylic acid, morning and night, and being on the pill, my skin has improved slightly, but would love to try this silk product and hopefully see some results! Thanks again for sharing x
I've been using my silk pillowcases for about 10 years and I LOVE LOVE LOVE mine. I wash mine on delicate and let them air dry. I acquired mine from my dad, who brought them back from southeast asia when he was stationed there during Vietnam....which just shows you how old mine are.
Oh my goodness I would absolutely love one of those pillowcases 😭 I have had acne for as long as I can remember, been on all the pills my doctor could prescribe for me until Now I’ve sort of given up. Working as a makeup artist also has also been a challenge with this as I truly believe it all starts with skin and I love prepping clients gorgeous skin but feel like such a fake with my hideous skin and get so self conscious being so close to clients because I feel I am being judged and they will never rebook. I would just love to feel confident in my skin and will try anything! Keep being an inspiration Nadine! I look forward to all of your uploads! X
I’d luv one of the cases. After watching your vids I’ve recently purchased all new skin care that’s been recommended by you, from the ordinary and indeed . I’ve seen an improvement in fine lines and my skin feels amazing , Thankyou Nadine x
Would so so love to the try the pillow case. I have been struggling with spots for most of my adult life and only when I discovered Paula's Choice Skin Perfecting 2% BHA's Peeling a few year ago my skin got better. I would LOVE to try it. Thank you for your great videos, Nadine. Love them all.
Hey Both :-) I wouldn’t say I deserve this above anyone else - I’ve watched this video and I related to so many of Jo’s skin concerns - I’m now about to completely switch up my routine.. I was mid way through looking for a cheaper alternative to the silk pillowcase when she announced a giveaway! So, I’d love to receive one because of this - I may be preventative of more fine lines occurring and frizzy hair in my sleep! Love you guys together, you really bounce off one another and listening to your science behind it Nadine, really gives us viewers clarity on what we’re putting on our skin! Thanks,Becky x
I’ve struggled with Acne my entire life, I’m now 40 and now is got more cystic, I deserve it because I would love to try it and also because I couldn’t afford it, thanks!!!
I would love the silk pillow case, I’ve suffered from acne since I was 19, now 28 and the battle continues! Will definitely use the info you gave in this video.
Love this video! I have oily skin and despite my double cleanse and acids I still suffer from breakouts (probably to do with my lack of sleep and poor diet as I’m a midwife!). I’d love to give this pillowcase a go!
Love this & your other videos Nadine! I was on the pill for years for PCOS & as soon as I came off of it I started suffering from cystic acne, so painful & unsightly! Would love to try a silk pillow case! :) x
Thank you for the video Ladies! Loved hearing your story Jo. I’ve never had problem skin until 24. Struggling to manage my breakouts but slowly learning what I can & can’t use. Thanks for the advice 😊 Would love to try the Slip pillowcase x
I have the pillowcase going on a year...Wonderful! Only use It CC Cream. I also use The Ordinary Niacinamide with Zinc & The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid with B5...and they work wonders. Love watching you both together ❤️
Could listen to the two of you forever, please do more videos with Jo. Would love the chance to win a pillowcase, I work shifts for the NHS so don't see my bed very often so would be a real treat on a night off to sleep on that xxx
Nadine , can you please talk about hyper-pigmentation in your next video? Hearing Jo talk about how she used to be embarrassed about showing her bear skin , hit home for me ! I used to have perfect skin and that all changed when I was 30 for some odd reason (I've been told I had a hormonal change at one point and that triggered it ) .. And I've tried creams and serums recomended by dermatologists and chemical peels ( also under a dermatologist's supervision)... They always seem to come back no matter what I do :( ... Desperate in Beirut ! :)
I absolutely love the Paula's choice BHA as well, it's great. I'm going to be looking into the Glossier cleanser now. I would LOVE to try that pillow case. I always sleep on my face even when I try not to and it causes me sleep lines and breakouts on my jawline. So nice of you to do a give away. xxx
Jo is brilliant fun to watch, you both bounce off of each other! I bought the IT cosmetics CC cream and it's totally transformed my daily routine! I often break out around my temples and cheek bone area, which stops me from being able to use highlighters as it draws too much attention to them :( would love to try the pillowcase. Love the hack videos, keep them coming x
I’ve been struggling with acne since I was 9, and have tried every possible remedy, but hadn’t heard of the silk pillowcase being beneficial. I also have curly hair so this would be good for my hair as well as my skin. Thank you for the tips ladies, off to check out the Paula’s Choice!
I am 66 and would love a silk pillow slip. Have always had breakouts and still do even at 66 years of age. Going to but the It cc and brush, great recommendations ladies. Thank you
Silk pillowcase please! Not for me but for my daughter who is suffering from acne and it has caused so much damage to her self esteem. By the way you two together are so fun to watch😊
Really helpful thanks! I’ve had acne/spots since I was 13 (now 27) and been to several dermatologists and doctors over the years. The silk pillow case looks fab!
I’ve been suffering with super sensitive/reactive skin since using Elemis products (how ill informed I was back then!) since following Nadine I have learnt so much about acne prone skin and have revolutionised my skincare regime. Id love to add the silk pillowcase to my regime to hopefully help with my transformation regime.
Absolutely loved this! I have struggled with hormonal acne all of my 20’s and am currently experiencing a bad break out on my chin and jaw line. I’ll definitely try the Paula’s Choice, I’m yet to find my “miracle” product! I would love the chance to try the silk pillowcase as I’m willing to try anything to at least improve my skin! X
Oh please consider me for the magic silk pillowcase! I'm 34 and suffered with breakouts for all my adult life on and off. Worse since coming off the pill to have my son. Who is, incidentally, 2 years old tomorrow, and not sleeping this week because he's poorly, so I could absolutely do with a little bit of a pick me up and luxury just for frazzled me. Always trying out new things to tackle my skin and looking for that magic key so this video was ace. Thank you :)
Hi ladies, Thank you so much for this. My breakouts are unreal and this really spoke to me. I'm already seeing results from the paula's choice that I started using and can't wait to try the rest. I'd love to enter for the pillowcase if it's still running and thank you so much again!!!!!
I would love to try a silk pillowcase for all those wrinkles my toddler and 10 month old have given me. A beauty tip you can do while your sleeping sounds good to me, yay for multitasking!
First thank you for this video, I am a 40 years old nurse. Work in a dry air, and I would love to try a silk pillow case. I used to have oily skin but in the last years I’ve gotten a more sensitive dry skin.
"your skin is good at the moment" is what gets said to me all the time! And its only just hit me🤦 I buy paula's choice by the lorry load, why wasn't this invented back in the day.. I'm bloody grateful for it now 😍
I need that pillow case because at 55 i STILL breakout, with oily acne prone, contact dermatitis, sensitive skin and can't afford it. I wish they made the IT CC cream in deeper colors, I'd love to try that also. Thank you for mother great video.
I would love to try the silk slip pillowcase. I have suffered with bumps under the surface of my skin since a teenager. Plus at 48 years old when I fall asleep on my side the following morning I have deep creases on my face that take all day to disappear- I'm in need of a treat. Great videos ladies, informative and fun x
I have had the same kind of skin that Jo has since I was 12years old, I'm now 47 and still get outbreaks, have a nose and chin covered with blackheads and ooze oil like a texas oil field. I have been so mortified by it for well over 35 years. I have scarring like you wouldn't believe. I now have a new form of acne, hidradenitis suppurativa around some areas which I am to embarassed to tell you. I would love one of those pillows, even helping the skin on my cheeks would be something to behold. I currently use The Ordinary's skin products to help with my cystic acne, but the damage has been done and my facial skin is truely horrible. I hate the adverts on TV that tell you to love the skin you're in!
Lynn Fenwick check out Dr. Dray on TH-cam -no more cystic acne since being on her day and night routine, and it’s an affordable (cheap) regimen.
Even though I’ll be 60 this month I STILL get the occasional breakout!! Aaarrrggh! I guess being so oily has helped me have fewer wrinkles though. I remember Clearasil!! Never seemed to deliver what it promised. Great ideas ladies! I appreciate it! 💝💝
How refreshing to hear someone inside the beauty industry speak truthfully about their skin struggles. I’m 48 and have had acne for 35 years. I also used everything from peroxide mixtures to roaccutane from my early teenage years and feel this video with resonate with many people. I now have menopausal acne...it seems there is no end in sight! I have changed my pillowcase every night for several years and feel it helps on some level. I would love to try the silk pillow and let you know the outcome.
I’ve suffered from breakouts my entire life, and while I have been able to find a few products that helped, it’s made my skin incredibly sensitive. So sensitive that sometimes I wake up with random and painful, red patches. As a side sleeper I also smash my face into the pillow and get the lovely creases in my face. Lol. While I am by no means a pink girl, I would love it if I won. Thanks again for a great video Nadine! I’m gonna try the IT CC as it seems it fits all skin types! Love having Jo and Yogi in the videos!
Praise Paula's BHA. It's a life changing product. She never gets the praise that she deserves for her formulations. Her cleansers are all I can use to deal with tenacious sunscreen. I love a number of SkinMedica products, but so much that Paula makes is in a class all themselves.
I had awful skin when I was 18. I tried everything but there were so few products available. I talked to people with my hand over my chin as this was my problem area. Eventually it did clear up but in my head I will always have that 18 year old skin so my heart goes out to people who suffer from bad skin. It just saps your confidence and you become slightly obsessed. Hopefully this video will give any sufferers hope. I would love the silk pillowcase as I’ve now developed that other problem - you wake up and your face is saggy and stays that way half the morning! Babies don’t know how lucky they are!
I’m 39 (almost 40) and am just coming out the other side of adult acne. I missed that as a teen, and now the buggers are paying me back. So not only am I ‘fighting ageing’, ya know, dull, loose skin, wrinkles, yada yada, but I’m also fighting the nasty little marks that these spots are leaving. In the words of Hugh Grant in Notting Hill, I think that deserves a brownie (Slip pillow sheet). Nadine, FYI your channel has changed my life!
I've been contemplating the purchase of this pillowcase for a while now. I've suffered from sensitive, acne-prone skin for as long as I can remember. I'm unable to take the contraceptive pill because it triggers my anxiety and I have a family history of blood clotting disorders. I've also just had a baby. I'm in my early 30s now and I too am a devoted fans of it cosmetics CC cream and gel products. I'm 6 months in to testing adapalene with very pleasing results. I'd be thrilled to discover a pillow case that doesn't harm my skin. I currently change my pillowcases every other day due to my sensitivity. Thank you so much for this series and for the opportunity 🙏
I have become utterly addicted to beauty pie. I just dove into their cleansers and I now have three of them and absolutely love all three. Because I'm spending quite a bit of money with beauty pie you introduced me to beauty pie, I feel like I should get a pillowcase. I have been struggling with breakouts since I turned 42 and having wrinkles and pimples at the same time is demoralizing. I just started curology and I feel like it has started to make a difference. Love your videos Nadine
I‘m 30 and recently got breakouts again and I‘m constantly picking at my skin, on the bumps and the dry flaky bits. My self-confidence is completely gone, I‘m hiding most of the time behind a scarf, my hair or simply in my apartment.
I‘m definitely going to try some of your recommendations and would be really happy about one of these pillowcases. Thanks to both of you for making such informative and funny videos!
This video is EVERYTHING! ✨
I really relate with jo! Wow! I’m 23 years old and the only way I can describe my skin “A Confused Skin”
My skin can be dry, oily, dehydrated.. sensitive.. acne prone.. congested. You name it I’ve got it x I never feel like I fit into one category of “skin type” and I’ve actually had people tell me this. It’s bloody hard work but I do a good job of keeping it under control x I’ve always been intrigued with the silk pillow but always assumed it would benefit a more mature skin type.. maybe it would work for me after all? X
Thankyou for all the info! You literally save my life!✨✨
I've had acne for 15 years. I also love buying reusable beauty products that will last a lifetime, no matter what the price (just bought a Mason Pearson brush). A silk pillowcase will be perfect for my collection for so many reasons. Thank you!
Wow! I have been suffering from acne for 6 years now (15-21), currently undergoing a treatment of prescription tretinoin 0.1%. My skin is flaky, peeling and irritated and this pillowcase just sounds like a dream on my poor retin-A face! I am persistent with changing my pillowcases but this honestly sounds like it will help so much with the sensitivity whilst sleeping.
I love you Nadine and keep up the amazing content! mwah xo
This was very informative. Thank you. I have been suffering with bad skin since I was 11 years old and now that I am 25, I feel like it is really showing the damage. I feel very insecure about even going to the supermarket, and no matter what I do I feel like I need a layer of foundation to give me enough confidence to even leave the house. The silk pillow case is something I would like to try. Thank you
I'd love to be on the list for pillowcase! I've had problematic skin since my early twenties, with under the skin cystic bumps across my cheeks, chin and forehead when I'm stressed. It's hormonal but stress brings on an outbreak that can take months to calm down. I can really relate to Jo, and her comments about 'but your skin looks good right now'- such a frustrating thing to be told!! My skin has in the past really affected my mental wellbeing and confidence- and many treatments burn the skin or destroy the moisture barrier. I'm really careful with towels and bedding etc but even when my skin is 'good' it is still slightly congested.
I love seeing you two together, and hearing about other people's stories and skin journeys! Megan x
Hi Nadine, I’m so glad you got Jo back - I love you two together!! I’d love a pillowcase because I’m 17 and have had mild acne for a few years now and even though I know it could be a lot worse I am still self-conscious about it and hate not wearing makeup so if the pillowcase could make even a small difference I would be so happy. Thank you xx
Just came across this video. Love you ladies! I had bad skin in my late 20's early 30's and I started using Proactive. It was super harsh on my skin but thankfully after 2-3 years my skin improved. Now I use a mild cleanser, drug store moisture cream at night only then rinse my face with warm water only in the morning and it has made such a huge difference in my skin. Less has been more for my situation. Jo you are beautiful.
I have had acne my entire life...am now 60 and have the indented scars. I would so enjoy this beautiful pillow case!
My skin journey....I didn’t start with cystic acne until after I had my second child. I was in my early 30s. It was so bad and I had no idea how to manage it. I now have major scarring and have just started accutane. My skin is now extra dry and sensitive but I think it is working. I have only been using this for 3 months but it looks promising. I am now 47 and hope a silk pillow case will help with the many new wrinkles now appearing and also with the sensitive skin I am now dealing with. Love these types of videos. Keep them coming. Thanks
Really found that useful, thank you.
I've been on Roaccutane 3 times and still have problem skin. I love it when you're talking to someone and they say..'Oh your poor face.' That makes your day.
I would love a silk pillow case, if poss please.
Wow! Silk pillow cases .... the absolute height of indulgence!
I've loved your videos for months ... Jo is so much fun.
You ladies make me giggle... I love the information you share and how down-to-earth you are. You certainly compliment one another. I recall using a silk pillowcase when I was a much younger girl to keep my curlers in overnight for Sunday Church! What fond memories! Perhaps it's time for me to try one again. It sounds like a worthwhile investment... just another step in my skincare routine.
I love you two. More like this in the future please. I made myself silk pillowcases about 4 years ago. Not for acne, but to reduce the wrinkling caused by sleeping on my front. They really work well.
Loved this, thank you! I have had cystic, hormonal acne since I was 17 and now at 35 am SO over it. The pill was great and the only magical cure, until I had to stop taking it due to migraines. Nothing has worked since. I am going to try all of these products, THANK YOU both, loved the chat and the advice!
I am 26 and have a condition called Pyoderma Faciale, which basically consists of angry cystic lumps appearing only on my face. I've had this for around 4 years now and have tried numerous oral antibiotics, creams, diet changes and thousands of different products! My dermatologist has now told me that we have "exhausted all options" and I left my most recent appointment feeling completely defeated!
I have thought about silk pillow slips before and have struggled to find them or unfortunately the ones I have found have seemed to be quite expensive - which has resulted in talking myself out of purchasing and telling myself that they probably won't help anyway or couldn't possibly be worth the money!
However, it would be amazing to have a chance to try them. Even if the only benefit is they are more gentle on my skin which often wakes me up at night from being so painful!
Thanks so much for posting vidoes on topics like these. There is an overwhelming amount of information on the internet on ways to treat conditions such as acne and those similar (although not so much on mine which is great!) but your channel is so honest!
Dear Nadine, I think every woman deserves a clear, nice skin so if there is anything which could help I would go for it 😘 Thank you for your smart and helpful videos and wish you good luck in everything you do 🍀
struggled with acne for over a decade, this was such a relatable conversation!!
I would love a pillowcase. Always had good skin then developed psoriasis in my 30s. So between that, using steroid creams and uvb treatment my skin has taken a bit of a battering. Now getting to “a certain age” getting hormonal breakouts that I never had luckily at puberty. I try to look after my skin as best I can and would love to try the slip. Thanks ladies. Been loving your collaborations 😍
I’ve had hormonal acne for over 10 years, and feel like I’ve tried everything! I’ve been to see my GP many times and all they recommend is a Benzoyl Peroxide gel which I’ve been slathering on my face for years and still get the same acne ‘beard’😩 I have the contraceptive implant and still get these hormonal breakouts, and also get spots on my back.
Loved to see a video about acne/spots from someone who actually suffers with it, thank you!!!
Such an informative video! As someone who has suffered from acne since I was a teenager, I have tried so many different products to combat and soothe my problematic skin. It's so difficult when you think a product is so good, but a little while later I'll still get breakouts. So frustrating. I would love love love to try out the silk pillowcase but it's just so out of my budget to even consider spending that much. I've tried clearing up my diet and exercising which really helped at first and it's given me a stronger body (yayy) but my acne still hasn't cleared up. I've decided I'm going to strip back my skincare and makeup to the bare essentials and see how I get along xxx Thanks again for all the tips and advice
Thank you so much for this video Nadine and Jo!
I am so intrigued by these pillowcases - please put me on the list! Listening to Jo talk about her troubled skin - which sounds identical to mine, angry spots all the time but also dry skin everywhere - was really heartening. Few of the beauty bloggers who I follow have skin like mine, and it is so powerful to hear from someone successful in the industry talking about these kinds of problems, and with so much honesty.
I'm ready to try all of the above but, as a PhD student, the Slip pillowcase is slightly out of my budget! I'll have my fingers crossed :)
I feel your pain. It's such an emotional issue too - it effects self confidence, self worth - sometimes you just want to hide your face away. I'm convinced my skin is why I wear my hair long - so I can hide behind it when I need to. Anyway try the BHA - you will not look back, I promise. Try with the travel version first as it's £7. You will notice the difference after one night. And visit charity shops looking for 100% silk shirts and wrap them around your pillow - that's what my nan used to do and swore by it.
It is hugely emotional yes, especially as my skin has a tendency to flare up just when I don't need it too, adding to stress and lacking self-confidence. Thank you so much for the amazing tips, I will definitely be trying all of the above!
Eleanor Shipton keep your head held high and know you aren’t alone ;)
Eleanor Shipton keep your head up ;£
I meant ;)
I would love to have one of those pillowcases for my husband. He has suffered from cystic acne, pustules, blackheads, scarring and redness since he was in high school. He has mentioned so many times that he thinks his pillowcase “spreads” it and I have always ignored him! He would be thrilled with one of these and I do think it would help after hearing it from you guys 😋 we are newlyweds and don’t have a lot of spare money so I would love to be able to try it out before spending the £90!!! thank you Nadine, love your videos! XX
Love this video series with Jo. She is such a source of information. I don't know that I deserve a pillowcase. No one deserves something for free. I have long heard the benefits though of them toted and would love to try them myself. Thank you as always for your videos.
I was on dianette pill for years for my skin. My skin was great but my mood swings were terrible. When I came off I finally felt like myself again. When I came to conceive I had real trouble. The fertility doctor said being on dianette for as long probably contributed to my pcos. Being on it is the biggest regret of my life. I know it probably won’t happen to everyone but just for a wee bit of balance sorry.
Love the videos. You two are a hoot!!
I have struggled with acne (made worse by skin picking disorder) for 2/3rds of my life, how sad is that. Korean skincare has been a godsend because of their emphasis on being gentle with the skin and layering hydration. Plus, pimple patches! Omg! Wish those had been around when I was in high school. I used to absolutely punish my skin when I was younger, just like you ladies mentioned.
Skincare has come such a long way and I'm so glad I can now give actual good advice and products to my niece, hopefully she will never suffer the way I did feeling miserable and hopeless. It really does affect your confidence, especially having acne as an adult, I often feel like people judge me or don't take me seriously because of it.
But my skin is so much better now, I can count the number of spots I have at any given time on one hand! I do wonder how much of it is just my skin naturally becoming drier with age tho.
The pillow case looks so lovely! I have the most sensitive skin with rosacea, hormonal acne and aging skin. I'd love to be able to leave the house without a ton of make up!
you two together are so much fun to learn from. could have used the silk pillowcase just last night! this 56 year old went to work today with pillowcase creases on face - fortunately no one said anything! hello to yogi!
Silk pillowcase sounds lovely. A great night's sleep that helps me with my acne!
This was really helpful. My oily skin changed to dry, sensitive skin in my 40s. I change my pillow case every 3 days to help keep my skin from reacting. I would love to try the pillow case to see if it helps with wrinkles and sensitivities. Thank you!
Hello Nadine and Jo!
First, I wanted to thank you so much for this video. I have been struggling with cystic acne and massive spot breakouts for the last fifteen years and have had the most difficult time finding products, even those recommended by my dermatologist, that would treat my spots but not enrage my dry and sensitive skin. I really can't wait to try these recommendations and would love to see if the silk pillow case could work for me! I have spots on my cheeks, just like Jo used to, and would really like to take on the three-night test to see if they could be helped.
Even if I'm not chosen, I just want to thank you both for telling your stories and for making those that suffer from acne know that they aren't alone in their fight and that there are products out there that will help! You are both amazing and so fun to watch! Thank you thank you! :)
Love this vlog thank you... Jo's story resonates with me so much... I actually always dreamt of working in the beauty industry, but felt ashamed to ever follow that dream due to my awful skin that started to break out as soon as I hit puberty and like Jo I used Quinoderm, also Clearasil, TCP, toothpaste, lemon juice, Dettol, Tar soaps, there were none of the products available now back then....
I had lovely olive toned skin as a child, by the time I reached my late teens all the various products reduced my skin tone to the colour of wall paper paste and I still had spots :-( I'm so glad to have got older, in my late 40's my skin stopped being so problematic and although I still get the odd small pimple its nothing like it used to be....but I still have to wear foundation everyday to look half decent....People don't realise the effect acne/blemishes can have on a person.....
I'm so much happier now I'm older and don't have to deal with the constant anxiety of having to deal with breakouts....Dealing with wrinkles is nothing compared to dealing with bad skin. I use just a bit of Freederm now as and when needed luckily its nothing like Quinoderm which used to bleach the bed linen, clothes, every damn thing.
Thank you for sharing the product tips :-) Would love a silk pillow case....tad expensive though lol x x x
I hear you - your story sounds so similar to mine. God knows what we've done to our skin over the years with all those harsh products we've shoved on it. I even remember using pure witch hazel on my skin for a few weeks - what an idiot!
I am 48 and had adult acne until I learnt what works for me. It took me until about the age of 40 to live life without acne. I’d love to try the pillow case please, as I’d like to keep the wrinkles at bay as much as possible! xx
My daughter is 13 and is feeling so insecure, I really feel like I’m not winning on any product but don’t want to use her skin as a lab if you know what I mean, would really help to get her confidence back, thank you for all the tips ladies x
The pillowcase idea is so clever. I'm a 16 year old boy and ive had very acne prone skine since I was 12. Everything I've tried hasn't changed it and it's constantly breaking out. I am in the beauty industry through social media and my skin is constantly a problem for makeup and when at photo shoots. This would be such an amazing product to try as there is no way I could afford a product like this but it would be fantastic to try
I loved this video! Thank you jo about being so honest about your skin! I’ve had acne since being 13 and I’m now 29! I’ve been on roaccutane and came off it in January, but my skin is just getting worse and worse. It honestly feel hopeless. Nadine I would love to see you do a video for people who are on/have been on roaccutane. ☺️
Hello Nadine and Jo, I'm nearly 42 and I have had acne for almost 30 years, ever since I was 12... and I now have to fight against wrinkles as well ! So I would love to have the opportunity to try this amazing and somewhat magic pillow case. Have a beautiful day !
I love watching these two! I’m watching even though I don’t have problems with spots.
I have acne, a toddler, a full time job, and have been fighting a sinus infection and bronchitis all week. This pillowcase would make my month! And I’m not picky on color!
Not as picky as Baggott then!! Everything has to be WHITE.
Hi Nadine, would love one of these pillow cases! After having recently moved from Asia to Canada my skin is in turmoil..... The change of climate and my age (46) seems to be a sudden stressor for my skin. I have been watching all your back catalogue of videos and accumulating many many useful tips.Thank you for all that you do in teaching and sharing your in-depth knowledge so we all have more resources at our fingertips so we can present our best selves to the world. X
I’ve had acne since I was 14. I’m 59 now. We have to be so careful because acne sufferers have an impaired skin barrier. I found Paula’s Choice BHA Exfoliant 3 weeks ago and love, love, love it. Thank you for what you are saying about oil cleansers. I can’t use them and I thought it was just me.
I’ve literally spent the last 15 minutes attacking my face (Nadine - don’t kill me)! I’ve always wanted to try a silk pillowcase as I think the idea is genious. Jo is just fabulous - it makes such a difference coming from someone who actually suffers and knows what it’s like to suffer (she’s beautiful)! X
What an amazing giveaway. I have suffered from problematic skin from my teens. Each time I’ve came off the pill to have my children it gets ten times worse.
I am still trying to find the perfect concoction of products to help my skin. The older I get the more I am learning. I have taken so much advice from this video and the pillow case would help me greatly on my journey.
I love when you two do videos together....great chemistry and very entertaining!
Silk pillow cases is such an out there idea for me. My skin can be very reactive and it's not a piece of advice I've heard before. On top of spots I also get the challenge of ingrown hair and reactions to shaving so it's something I'd really love to try.
Nadine; you have introduced me to so many products that have saved my life ( IT cosmetic CC cream, cicaplast lips; glossier concealer; Paula’s choice body lotion to name only a few! Love your content: informative, funny & honest. Therefore, would absolutely love trying this pillow case. I have adult acne on my cheeks like Jo and maybe this would solve my problem....pretty please, save me once again!
I take the PC BHA everywhere I go-love it! And I adore the It Cosmetics CC Creme but I apply with a dampened beauty blender when I want a lighter coverage. It really is a genius product and doesn't make me breakout or trigger my rosacea.
Hi Nadine! I would LOVE one of those pillow cases because I’m a 40 year old single mum with a beautiful 4 year old son who has cerebral palsy and autism. I’m wrinkly because I’m quite often stressed (!!) and sleep is something I don’t get enough of because my little boy wakes a lot in the night and it’s just me and him, so I’m often sleep deprived...😴. I love your channel and you’re my skincare guru! Lots of love, Fiona&Zander Haines❤️
Why do I deserve a silk pillowcase? Because I'm a beauty nag 😂😂 but also because I'm peri-menopausal so I'm in that sweet spot of hormonal break outs vs saggy lack of collagen skin, God I love my body!! So nice to finally see someone talking about skincare who doesn't have dry skin - so much content for you dry peeps out there about layering on oils and luxurious creams so it's great to have some recommendations for us sensitive/combo types!
Ive had acne since I was 12. I did roaccutane at 23, it cleared up for a couple of years and then it got back (lighter, thankfully). It left me with other problems for life. I’m 38, and I have to deal with hormonal acne, and the skin’s clock doesn’t stop, so lack of elasticity and wrinkles are on my agenda. I diligently take care of my skin, with vitamin C, acids, retinol and tonnes of hyaluronic (it’s dehydrated). But I still need all the help I can get to prevent the breakout beard.
Thanks for this video, Nadine, I’ll probably give the salicylic a try, although from other brands that I’ve tried it leaves my skin peeling a bit...
I neeeeeed that pillowcase! 48, clinging to the edge keeping the wrinkles away! Occasional perimenopause breakouts on chin plus keeping the fine lines away, this is what I need! I DREAM of skin like Nadine's! I don't care what color either!! XOX
I would LOVE to try the silk pillowcase! I'm 29 and for the last ten years or so I have had constant mountainous spots on my chin and cheek! I've pretty sensitive skin and don't get on with oils or acids. I'm trying to use the most gentle products at the moment so the idea of some pure silk helping me out is very appealing!!
Love this video, so refreshing to see troubled skin talked about so openly from someone who actually suffers with it 😊 I've been suffering with adult cystic acne for about a year now and am currently taking Roaccutane. I'm hoping they will help but would love to try the silk pillowcase as my skin has become so sensitive. Really need to try the CC cream too, you both look gorgeous in it!
Wow thts really nice of her to give out silk pillow cases...I'm 30 and I have got PCOS....I get really bad cystic acne around my mouth and jaw line....
hello to both of you beautiful ladies! I'm 21 and I struggled with my skin for 10+ years now. acne played a huge part in my life and I definitely felt the lack of confidence because of it... only now I'm starting to feel comfortable in my own skin. unfortunately, most things that you talk about aren't available here in Russia or they aren't in my preferable price range at the moment, but I really do appreciate these videos 'cause I always try to improve my skin care, so I would love to to try out the silk pillow case and see the possible difference. again, thank you for doing what you do for all of us 💛
I've added the lot to my wishlist! This was the best video I've watched about acne. I've had it since I was about 28 and I WISH I'd bumped into you two before my wedding :( Needless to say, I'm now 34, with a baby and back in acne hell.
I hadn't really clicked how many things I've been doing wrong.....layering it all on, using glycolic acids, using a bloody crap pillowcase! Anyway, thanks! xx
I've fought cystic acne for many many years and just recently has it calmed down, thankfully . Still, ' d love to try the silk pillow. Thanks for this wonderful, informative talk, ladies
I would love to try the pillowcase, my story is very similar, having suffered with acne since being 12 and still as an adult now with rosacea, and trying to cover it up with make up. I have tried to embrace my skin since turning 40, but it has taken me a long time to feel happy with my skin 😊
I'm with you x
Thank you both for sharing this video, the comment about when people comment on your skin being good (at the moment) is so relatable, something that has been said to me and it is never taken as a compliment. As a 22 year old at university I am often surrounded by friends with near perfect skin, even if I look after my skin better, eat better, drink less alcohol yet still my skin is never even close to perfect. I would love the chance to try a pillow case and see if it makes a difference. After using the ordinary salicylic acid, morning and night, and being on the pill, my skin has improved slightly, but would love to try this silk product and hopefully see some results! Thanks again for sharing x
I've been using my silk pillowcases for about 10 years and I LOVE LOVE LOVE mine. I wash mine on delicate and let them air dry. I acquired mine from my dad, who brought them back from southeast asia when he was stationed there during Vietnam....which just shows you how old mine are.
Oh my goodness I would absolutely love one of those pillowcases 😭 I have had acne for as long as I can remember, been on all the pills my doctor could prescribe for me until Now I’ve sort of given up.
Working as a makeup artist also has also been a challenge with this as I truly believe it all starts with skin and I love prepping clients gorgeous skin but feel like such a fake with my hideous skin and get so self conscious being so close to clients because I feel I am being judged and they will never rebook. I would just love to feel confident in my skin and will try anything!
Keep being an inspiration Nadine! I look forward to all of your uploads! X
I’d luv one of the cases. After watching your vids I’ve recently purchased all new skin care that’s been recommended by you, from the ordinary and indeed . I’ve seen an improvement in fine lines and my skin feels amazing , Thankyou Nadine x
Would so so love to the try the pillow case. I have been struggling with spots for most of my adult life and only when I discovered Paula's Choice Skin Perfecting 2% BHA's Peeling a few year ago my skin got better. I would LOVE to try it. Thank you for your great videos, Nadine. Love them all.
Hey Both :-)
I wouldn’t say I deserve this above anyone else - I’ve watched this video and I related to so many of Jo’s skin concerns - I’m now about to completely switch up my routine.. I was mid way through looking for a cheaper alternative to the silk pillowcase when she announced a giveaway! So, I’d love to receive one because of this - I may be preventative of more fine lines occurring and frizzy hair in my sleep!
Love you guys together, you really bounce off one another and listening to your science behind it Nadine, really gives us viewers clarity on what we’re putting on our skin!
Thanks,Becky x
I’ve struggled with Acne my entire life, I’m now 40 and now is got more cystic, I deserve it because I would love to try it and also because I couldn’t afford it, thanks!!!
Wow- put me on the list for the pillows! I'm in my late 30s, on a topical prescription medication for my cystic acne, but I'm STILL getting them!
I would love the silk pillow case, I’ve suffered from acne since I was 19, now 28 and the battle continues! Will definitely use the info you gave in this video.
Love this video! I have oily skin and despite my double cleanse and acids I still suffer from breakouts (probably to do with my lack of sleep and poor diet as I’m a midwife!). I’d love to give this pillowcase a go!
Love this & your other videos Nadine! I was on the pill for years for PCOS & as soon as I came off of it I started suffering from cystic acne, so painful & unsightly! Would love to try a silk pillow case! :) x
Thank you for the video Ladies! Loved hearing your story Jo. I’ve never had problem skin until 24. Struggling to manage my breakouts but slowly learning what I can & can’t use. Thanks for the advice 😊 Would love to try the Slip pillowcase x
Get PC BHA and you'll never regret it. The travel size is £7 so a good place to start without investing ££
jo jones Just ordered the travel size, can’t wait to try! Thank you :)
I have the pillowcase going on a year...Wonderful! Only use It CC Cream. I also use The Ordinary Niacinamide with Zinc & The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid with B5...and they work wonders.
Love watching you both together ❤️
I will love to get this pillow for my mother who is struggling with adult acne. Thanks Nadine for this video, very informative as usual. Regards,
Could listen to the two of you forever, please do more videos with Jo. Would love the chance to win a pillowcase, I work shifts for the NHS so don't see my bed very often so would be a real treat on a night off to sleep on that xxx
Nadine , can you please talk about hyper-pigmentation in your next video? Hearing Jo talk about how she used to be embarrassed about showing her bear skin , hit home for me ! I used to have perfect skin and that all changed when I was 30 for some odd reason (I've been told I had a hormonal change at one point and that triggered it ) .. And I've tried creams and serums recomended by dermatologists and chemical peels ( also under a dermatologist's supervision)... They always seem to come back no matter what I do :( ... Desperate in Beirut ! :)
I absolutely love the Paula's choice BHA as well, it's great. I'm going to be looking into the Glossier cleanser now. I would LOVE to try that pillow case. I always sleep on my face even when I try not to and it causes me sleep lines and breakouts on my jawline. So nice of you to do a give away. xxx
Jo is brilliant fun to watch, you both bounce off of each other! I bought the IT cosmetics CC cream and it's totally transformed my daily routine! I often break out around my temples and cheek bone area, which stops me from being able to use highlighters as it draws too much attention to them :( would love to try the pillowcase. Love the hack videos, keep them coming x
I’ve been struggling with acne since I was 9, and have tried every possible remedy, but hadn’t heard of the silk pillowcase being beneficial. I also have curly hair so this would be good for my hair as well as my skin. Thank you for the tips ladies, off to check out the Paula’s Choice!
Let us know how you get on :)
I would give the case to my mum. And you gals should make merch, t shirts that say Beauty Hag! I would seriously buy one!
haha that's funny. :)
I’d buy one
Me too!!
I am 66 and would love a silk pillow slip. Have always had breakouts and still do even at 66 years of age. Going to but the It cc and brush, great recommendations ladies. Thank you
Silk pillowcase please! Not for me but for my daughter who is suffering from acne and it has caused so much damage to her self esteem. By the way you two together are so fun to watch😊
Really helpful thanks! I’ve had acne/spots since I was 13 (now 27) and been to several dermatologists and doctors over the years. The silk pillow case looks fab!
I’ve been suffering with super sensitive/reactive skin since using Elemis products (how ill informed I was back then!) since following Nadine I have learnt so much about acne prone skin and have revolutionised my skincare regime. Id love to add the silk pillowcase to my regime to hopefully help with my transformation regime.
Absolutely loved this! I have struggled with hormonal acne all of my 20’s and am currently experiencing a bad break out on my chin and jaw line. I’ll definitely try the Paula’s Choice, I’m yet to find my “miracle” product! I would love the chance to try the silk pillowcase as I’m willing to try anything to at least improve my skin! X
Oh please consider me for the magic silk pillowcase! I'm 34 and suffered with breakouts for all my adult life on and off. Worse since coming off the pill to have my son. Who is, incidentally, 2 years old tomorrow, and not sleeping this week because he's poorly, so I could absolutely do with a little bit of a pick me up and luxury just for frazzled me. Always trying out new things to tackle my skin and looking for that magic key so this video was ace. Thank you :)
Hi ladies,
Thank you so much for this. My breakouts are unreal and this really spoke to me. I'm already seeing results from the paula's choice that I started using and can't wait to try the rest. I'd love to enter for the pillowcase if it's still running and thank you so much again!!!!!
This makes me very happy :)
I would love to try a silk pillowcase for all those wrinkles my toddler and 10 month old have given me. A beauty tip you can do while your sleeping sounds good to me, yay for multitasking!
Exactly! Kids are such sleep stealers too! :)
First thank you for this video, I am a 40 years old nurse. Work in a dry air, and I would love to try a silk pillow case. I used to have oily skin but in the last years I’ve gotten a more sensitive dry skin.
"your skin is good at the moment" is what gets said to me all the time! And its only just hit me🤦 I buy paula's choice by the lorry load, why wasn't this invented back in the day.. I'm bloody grateful for it now 😍
I need that pillow case because at 55 i STILL breakout, with oily acne prone, contact dermatitis, sensitive skin and can't afford it. I wish they made the IT CC cream in deeper colors, I'd love to try that also. Thank you for mother great video.
Thank you so much nadine for introducing jo to us... i am definitely going to be using these tips on my troublesome skin.
I would love to try the silk slip pillowcase. I have suffered with bumps under the surface of my skin since a teenager. Plus at 48 years old when I fall asleep on my side the following morning I have deep creases on my face that take all day to disappear- I'm in need of a treat. Great videos ladies, informative and fun x
