    I always remember this story my coworker told me. She’d gotten her eyelashes tinted at a lash bar, with organic products. She had a terrible allergic reaction in both eyes. When she went to the doctor, her doctor was like, “Yeah, you shouldn’t put anything like that near your eyes.” She said, “But it was organic!” And her doctor said, “So is dirt, but you wouldn’t rub dirt in your eye, would you?”
    This helps remind me that just because something claims to be “organic” or “natural,” it does not mean that it is necessarily healthy or safe. The fact that I have to remind myself of this regularly illustrates the strength and power of the messages we receive via advertising, marketing and packaging from companies trying to get our money.

    Hi! I’m a licensed esthetician, and I would recommend not using anything with fragrance or essential oils that makeup more the 1% of the products (less than the amount of preservatives) and avoiding it all together if you have sensitive skin. So 30 drops I would say is at least 5-10%?? Yeah absolutely not! That’s going to cause tons of sensitivity and dilute the sunscreen so much that it’s not effective.

      The difference is concentration, the amount of the essential oil in one drop is higher than the one in like 10 leaves (this is an example, not a fact). For essential oils you need TONS of the plant. But, i do agree that you should just include the food into your diet because a very concentrated thing at once can also be harmful.

      As someone who is very much against the idea of abortions, this perspective is just so disappointing. Victims have EVERY right to want to terminate a pregnancy they never asked for. Honestly, what other women do with their bodies is nobody’s business, especially another woman with so much influence. I would probably never get an abortion, but I would NEVER judge or actively prevent someone from getting a safe abortion. Women need to stand together to make sure we are doing the upmost to protect one another and children. Sometimes the safest option for a child IS to simply terminate the pregnancy. Who knows what kind of hereditary trauma that baby could be born with and have to go through. That woman could be so traumatized that she can’t even handle being pregnant. Pro-Life should never mean Anti-Woman or Anti-Victim. Hope all the women who have had to make that terribly difficult decision know how proud we are of them, REGARDLESS of why they made that decision.

    Never ever apply essential oil directly to your skin. Essential oils only get diluted with a carrier oil like avocado oil, or coconut oil. Essential oils can help acne, but only specific ones like neem oil, but without a carrier oil, these highly concentrated oil can give bad skin reactions and in worse cases, poisoning. Please use a carrier oil any time you want to apply pure essential oils to the skin.

    I actually unfollowed Alexa recently and it’s crazy that this video just now popped up in my suggestions. But my reasoning for unfollowing her was because I began to notice how she and Carlos seemed to be moving more towards the Alt-Right.
    I was scrolling through Alexa’s following list and noticed that she follows a very concerning amount of Alt-Right politicians and conspiracy theorists with pages filled with hatred, when I checked Carlos’ following list I unfortunately found the same, but not nearly as many as Alexa’s.
    Now I understand being conservative and being Christian- I mean I’m from the Texas Bible Belt- but these conspiracy pages and public figures are full on white supremacists without the white robes.
    And both lex and los use their evangelical Christianity and charisma as a facade to make themselves feel better for harboring such hatred.

    I’m not a super expert, but I am an esthetician and essential oils in skincare (especially DIY) IS A BIG FAT NOOOOOOOOO!!! Their is a reason why ingredients are listed and measured out exactly. You have no clue how much you are putting in and what effects it will have on your skin. Chemists make these for a reason. To DIY your own sunscreen and put essential oils in it is just a bad idea. Also certain oils can have an adverse effect on your skin while being in the sun. Especially any citrus oils. Exactly what Madison said, essential oils are just fragrance. Our skin ESPECIALLY on our face can be sensitive to fragrance like these. I’m really disappointed that she is trying on push not only the essential oils, but DIYing your own sunscreen. A guy here on TH-cam called SkincareByHyram goes in depth in a video all about fragrance in skincare, I highly recommend checking him out too about this DIY skincare.

      Some years ago she spoke about having to deal with an eating disorder when she was a teenager, that lasted about 6 years. I think she has had a quite stressful life, now she moved to Hawaii with her husband and she has 2 kids, she acts sometimes, but maybe she needs extra money? But WTF this is a scam, it’s really embarrassing 🤦🏻‍♀️ I am really sad to see this since I was a big fan of SK when I was a kid 🤣

    7:00 minutes in and as an esthetician I just screamed. Essential oils have photosensitive properties and literally more often than not can cause wrinkles sun damage and etc UGH

    I think you should keep the same intro as a joke, it would be hilariously bizarre! 😂 like you’re sitting in a beige bathroom like “Welcome back to my bLuE kItChEn”

    'She's aged beautifully' - SHE'S 33 NOW! I just looked it up and was shocked, because she looks so much older, like a mature woman, and the girl is just 33!

    I was literally just studying this! I'm looking into making my own (real) skin/body care business and I was researching safe practices.
    I'm not an expert, but from what I know, you don't want to mix things into normal skincare. Those have been very carefully crafted by professionals with masters degrees, so if they would benefit from essential oils, they'd be in there. You're messing with the pH, the chemical balance, etc. ESPECIALLY with SPF. Any homemade SPF stuff is going to be bullshit, without a doubt.
    Also, thirty drops is INSANE for that little pot. If you want a scent in it, fine, it's going to irritate most skin types to use essential oils but it might not do that to you. But use the ABSOLUTE MINIMUM. That will lower the risk of it irritating your skin. And, I repeat, don't mess with SPF. Trust cosmetic chemists.

    from what ive been reading, essential oils actually make you prone to sensitivity overtime if being applied to face. Our face is soooo thin and the more we put on it the more sensitive it will become overtime.
