Girl how much coffee have you had 😂😂😂

So, I am 50, and 5 years ago my husband caught me with one of those Tinkle razors trying to "dermaplane" my skin. He looked confused and asked what I was doing with that dinky thing. I explained I was removing peach fuzz and exfoliating my skin. He said he would show me how to do that the right way. He bought me my own man's very nice safety razor and replacemet blades, and we stood at the mirror together and he taught me how to properly shave my face and neck. I have been doing so ever since, and now I don't even wear foundation, just a bit of conealer when needed, and Hourglass powder and blush. People compliment me all the time, and I know it is because of plain old shaving and skincare. My hubby knew the secret all along! (edit: I shave about once a week...so relaxing!)

That is actually incredibly sweet, also there are male barbers that have started specializing in women’s shaves with straight razors and a few of them have posted videos doing it with a straight razor and it’s so effective you can literally see the skin change color from a dull grey to a luminous beige as he is making the passes on the women’s faces. Your husband totally makes sense. That was absolutely adorable of your husband, my husband can’t use a razor (ginger boy problems) so uses electric, now I’m bummed I can’t ask him. I vote for your hubby doing a how to video, just sayin.

Yep, dermaplaning razors have guards on them which can be helpful but they also keep the blade at a slight distance and can catch on hairs or the skin. Using a bare blade is actually a lot safer and more effective if you use it properly. That’s why you’re seeing more benefits from properly using a men’s safety razor. It’s a bare blade, just like professional esthetics dermaplaning blades (which are literally just a specific scalpel blade) and unlike the “dermaplaning” razors you can buy at the drug store or Sephora or Ulta.

@@carladuglin4036if you are okay going high end, the best safety razor hands down at any price point is the Henson AL13 razor ($69.99 USD) . If you want something a bit more affordable that is only a hair less incredible than Henson, I suggest the Leaf Shave single edge razors ($59.99 USD) (either the twig or the thorn depending on if you only get vellus hair or if you get some coarser hairs as well) but they’re only about $10 cheaper. The real affordability pick (and a long-time cult favorite) is the Albatross Butterfly XL safety razor. At $39.99 USD, it’s $20 cheaper than the Leaf razors and $30 cheaper than Henson making it easily accessible. However, while I think it’s definitely worth the money and is an incredible razor, it’s simply nowhere near the league of the leaf shave razors or Henson. If you buy the albatross razor, you’ll be happy with it but will likely end up wanting to upgrade to Leaf or even Henson at some point, so my personal advice is just to splurge off the bat and go for the Leaf or Henson razors. They’ll last you the rest of your life and you’ll be very VERY satisfied with either of the two brands.

I have PCOS, grow a beard and shave every other day... It's helped cut back on my acne. I tried one of those dermaplaning razors and hated them. I stick with a three or four blade razor and sensitive skin friendly shave gel. Works for me.

Dermaplaning is so good, and I’ll never go back. Be careful but it when you are careful, it makes skin so much smoother and brings a glow from within. Also makes me use less face moisturizing, which saves $$$.

The woman on the "Cancer Rehab PT" channel (she has a doctorate) teaches manual lymphatic drainage over the various areas of the body, including the face and head. Her main focus is treating lymphedema, which can make your face puffy. She has done multiple videos on the new MLD research from Australia. Trust her lessons on the MLD of the head and face.

Awe sorry to hear that. I’m not an expert by any means and from my research, I went to a dermatologist at 23 (36 now) and she kindly explained to me there’s a lot I can’t do because I’m a level 4 on the Fitzpatrick scale, like no co2 lasers, plus there’s not much they can do until the acne infection heals for scars. I have ice and rolling scars that stem from abrupt lost of collagen from the acne invasion. With retinal and the like they’ve diminished somewhat. If I start making more money I’ll try Microneedling, in-office to afraid to do at home, also thinking of getting a prescription soon but unfortunately nothing has a 100% success rate. Fillers are a another option for some scars but again too expensive for me. If you’re son has fair to light skin there are more option! I do recommend starting retinol, azelaic acid and a genial aha treatment like Cerave’s nightly exfoliating treatment to help both cure the acne and increase cell turnover. Though if you son has darker skin like me or darker I wouldn’t recommend a high percentage of gylcolic acid. Hope that was at least somewhat helpful!

The queen has uploaded a new video

Most people just do things to themselves without taking proper steps. If you're going to dermaplain, make sure the razor is new and then throw it out after one use. Wash your face with a cleanser afterwards, spray some hypochlorous acid, make sure you're exfoliating at least once a week. Keep those pores clean!

i wish these particular details are being highlighted rather than just the hype and the aesthetic side shown by the influencers. Thank you so much for making things make sense to me now. Please share more realistic insight about techniques people are always doing it wrong. After all, we learn best from mistakes. Lots of love

As someone who's trying to go into the public health feild, please don't think of lymph fluid as stuff stuck in between capillaries - it's there to help move white blood cells, T cells and other immune system cells through the body. While some of these cells also circulate in the bloodstream, the lymphatic system is still their main mode of transport - that's ehy lymph nodes swell sometimes when you're sick - they're swelling so there's more space for the immune cells to pass through so they can get where they're needed faster. That said, excess lymph fluid can accumulate in certain parts of the body if you don't move enough, since as the video said, it's circulated via skeletal muscle movement rather than being pumped by the heart like blood is

I damaged my skin with retinol and vitamin c it’s taken a year to get anywhere near back to where I was. Personally I’m not going to shave, or using these things again. The problem is that it’s sold over the counter cheaply and no one tells you it can be dangerous. How many people will be listening to this video.

I always take every single one of your advice, because you are truly intelligent amd trustworthy when it comes to skin.❤ I struggled with acne all my life and you really helped me take better care of my acne-prone skin while not breaking my bank. So thank you❤. I love you and keep doing what you're doing❤✨️💚

If you have sensitive skin, I recommend Olay retinol 24 (not the MAX one), it’s so gentle and really works. I put my Cetaphil gentle moisturizer on thin, use the Olay (put little dot all over the face and use one or two finger tips to tap the product onto the skin gently - retinol can be broken down quickly, so always be gentle, tap it on, and never wipe like you normally would, to maximize the potential of the product and keep your skin happy). Make sure to put it on the front of your neck, on your chest, and on the back of your neck, of course. Important to be smart about retinol.

When i was younger and completely new to skincare, i used a foot scrub on my face thinking it will help get rid of my acne scars that i loved to pop… luckily i have healed far from that

Omg you are so funny and amazing!! learning and laughing in one video is freaking brilliant!! I 🐈🐑🦆🐓🐬 love you. Thank you for saving our face ❤

Last time I did gua sha was 31/10/2023. I did it say too aggressively. First of november, I woke up crying with the most horrific toothache I've ever had. I had to get an emergency dental appt, went on antibiotics and was in absolute agony for four days. I had no idea it was meant to be done gently, so thank you for educating me. Would you consider doing a video on how to do it your way? Many thanks and big hugs.

You are amazing I am following your Chanel a long time but never leaved the comment. But u are making such amazing job . And I love your cat and your tea cups. I feel you and I believe not just me . Thank u

Omg I’m finally the first butterfly here!!!!

I had problems when shaving the sides of my face, literally the driest place of my combination skin - red and slightly itchy bumps would appear that only responded to topical steroids. This happened with a normal wet razor or with a dry eyebrow razor. Seems like an eyebrow razor with aloe gel or baby powder does the trick. I also have peach fuzz on my lower back, and each mechanical method of removal left me with even bigger red and very itchy bumps. So now I do IPL without shaving it, because it's a bit dark.

Thank you bunches, Miss Bankson, for setting the common misunderstanding right when it comes to lymphatic drainage! 😊🙏 It is a very gentle and rather "superficial" rhythmic stroking of the skin. It's NOT a Swedish deep tissue massage. 😆

I’m 37 yet too scared to buy any direct form of retinoid or direct unstable form of Vitamin C. Although I’ve only been through 1 or 3 periods of full-on severe breakouts (requiring medical visits). Other times I dealt mostly with low-level cystic acne. I did see a dermatologist for it. Once it cleared, I stopped treatment. However, for the last few years, I have been dealing with hyperpigmentation. I am too afraid to advance my own treatment. I hope to be guided by my dermatologist to advance me to the stage...

i haven't experienced any of the issues with retinoids you said, however i have noticed the pores on my forehead especially are extremely visible to me now, probably not to other people, but i never used to be able to see them now they're dark dots all over the outer sides. i definitely don't use a lot of it and i try to not do it all that often, maybe a couple times a week at most now, usually less, been using it for several months now too, plenty of time for my skin to get used to it, and i feel like my skin looks worse now after using this product. -3- Mainly wanted to use it for the softening effect on some fine wrinkles, which i feel it has a little, but now i have other problems i didn't really have before, more ( mild ish ) redness, and visible pores on the outer sides around my nostrils too. i've always had very tiny barely visible pores, so this is new for me, luckily on my forehead its somewhere i can hide it with my hair ._.

Can you do a video on sugaring/waxing pls

Cassandraaaa, I just saw the cutest thing and it made me think of you- the ingredients are unfamiliar to me as I generally stick to things that don’t aggravate my active acne and cause future breakouts, but please could you have a look at and possibly review some of the ‘I Dew Care’ products.

I have prescribed retinal and it’s been a journey I also had to go to a dermatologist because the first kind I was prescribed by the dr was too strong and now I have a mixture from a different brand that works a lot better.

I feel like if I don’t shave the peach fizz it makes me break out more in my side burns area. Thats one of the reasons I started doing it actually, other than my make up laying better. For me, at least, it makes my skin smoother and in less prone to breaks outs as I do have oily acne prone skin. I just wanted to share!!! I am super gentle though! And a clean razor every time!! Our skin is unique though and what works for some doesn’t work for all.

Your video made me realize my skin is NOT acne prone, even if I had cystic acne. I know it sounds weird, but I honestly think is true. Cause I finished my meds treatment and haven't had any sort of pimple for FOUR MONTHS, I do a bit of face shaving (mostly cause I have dark hair and I hate it at some areas), and I haven't had an outbreak. I will definitely ask my dermatologist later on about Gua-Sha.

My acne was caused by my rosacea and some mites that I was fighting in my eyes (Blepharitis). So it wasn't hormonal. I was 3 years taking capsules of 20mg of isotretinoin, and 2 years of an antibiotic capsule of doxycycline of 100mg. From each, 1 pill a day. And some dermatological products.

im 46 someone told me I shouldn't be shaving my face because of the age... what do you think about it! I love it!!

Dermaplaning breaks me out, I get cuts since my skin being like how you explain yours "feels like sourbread" AND doing my upper lip caused nearly instant shadowing. Sooo, since year, it looks like I have a stache now 😑 Azealic acid and other OTC products have not fixed it.

The shadowing might be from cutting the hair. Usually the "tip" of your hair is very fine but if you shave it you have a clean cut that can make the hair appear thicker or darker. So maybe you could try waxing it once so that the hair can start growing again and not look as dark

I did dermaplaining nearly 3 years ago now and it did wreck my skin - but it was my fault. I used a blade I previously used for my eyebrows and didn’t clean it beforehand (I would never do that now) anyway I did it on my right cheek and I broke out so badly within the same week. I scarred from the awful spots on my right side. One of the spots was cystic so I went on antibiotics and thankfully it did get better. The scars aren’t massive but I do see them everyday and it’s a reminder - I was once an idiot 😂

Oily skin here and I can't dermaplane at all. I use PC 2% bha but it doesn't help. I hate the peach fuzz but my skin hasn't tolerated any method. But I also get OILY AF after I've removed the vellous hair.

The disgust with hair, especially something as trivial as peach fuzz, is ridiculous.

My skin has been acne prone all my life (I'm 30) but I've begun to notice that 1 to 2 weeks after dermaplaning I break out like crazy and if I don't do it my skin is unbelievably smooth, not even a single zit and redness free (i have rocesea too) the reaction wasn't immediate so it took me months to notice that the razor is the culprit. I just kept thinking that the breakouts are because of my usual acne prone skin and hormones or some skincare product having a bad reaction . I'm relieved but also lowkey mad tho, because what I will do about the peach fuzz now😂

So I have a question. I was thinking about starting dermaplaning to shave before using a home laser. I've been using the laser on other parts of my body with no issue and with shaving. I was thinking for the face dermaplaning might be better. I have acne prone skin after I wax my face typically. So I'm wondering what's the best way to go about it? Do I just shave and then laser or dermaplane? Just wondering your thoughts.

You awesome- that’s all I got!

it seems that I have acne prone skin cuz I have had breakouts right after dermanplaning every time in the past, even with clean skin and brand new blade, if the oil glands are blocked like you said after dermaplaning, should i stop doing it or maybe use an exfoliant that same day to help the oil from getting blocked up?

Not an expert, but if it harms your skin every time, I would skip it all together. Dermaplaning is usually done for exfoliation, so exfoliating your skin beforehand I would think that it's too much, especially if you have sensitive skin

Ok, this freaked me out a bit... Would you recommend using a microcurrent device for getting rid of puffiness?

I had dermaplaning done recently by the esthetician at my derms office. That was over a month ago and my skin is just getting back to normal. It may have been a coincidence but I broke out way more than usual and ended up with small bumps all over my face that I could feel but not see. Definitely not for me.

What about shaving the face in the wrong direction? Would one of the little circular electric female face shavers technically go the wrong direction since it’s moving in a circular motion?

when you shave you only cut off the top of the hair so the entire thing is still under the skin. So therefore the oil would still get out through the hair. Unless you wax, this idea doesn't apply.

Hi! I have some questions about the gua sha. I learned how to do it months ago from Lanshin's channel, but what i heard is different from what you said in this video. In her tutorials she always explains that gua sha is not a lymphatic drainage technique, because lymphatic drainage needs very light touch, while on areas like the cheeks, the jaw and the neck gua sha is meant to go deeper to get to muscle level. Plus, for the undereye area she always goes from inner to outer corner... I've been following her tutorials for months now and never saw any irritation/brake outs, but is it actually okay to do it as lanshin teaches, with medium pressure on some parts of the face and a inner-to-outer stroke for the eyes?

I've never had this problem before. i dermaplaned at the beginning of july which definitely caused me to break out but its just gotten progressively worse since then. idk what to do. i was using benzoyl peroxide which was working fine for me but thought maybe thats causing my skin to be overly dried out which is making it produce more oil. so i switched to salicylic acid and now the acne is even worse. I'm at my wits end. the worst part is, my skin is so horribly oily now that i can't even wear makeup to cover it up. 😢 and i mean SUPER oily. an hour after washing my face, it feels like i rubbed vaseline on my face and even lips. its disgusting.

I dont understand how We can close the skin by shaving face. I mean, We Cut the hair, but the Oil can stil use the little hair to come up and out….How does We close our skin just by Cutting the hair?

Fåt s.inka sig flera gånger om för se om de kan likna någon annan❤

Duuuuude the skin around my eyes were burned when i started retinoids. Not prescription strength. No Vaseline. It took forever to heal and i was embarrassed to look at people. I’m not ok using it but not on my eyes!

You're not supposed to use it on your eyes.

And what if I use permanent hair removal (IPL) on my face while having acne? Will the sebum be able to escape?

It will only target the pigment in the hair. So not vellus hair.

Who is an expert in the gasha method you very much trust? I have lymphnode swelling after my total thyroid removal [ commonsurgery now]. After that surgery i have a specific lymphnode that swells often and tells me if im sick more quivkly than the other lymphnodes in my body. I think i have face swelling a touch.

Question: Hi Cassandra! I see Castor Oil being recommended as the anti-aging skin fixer-upper miracle treatment of the decade. I use an eyelash and eyebrow treatment to regrow where hair was lost (age and plucking) and see castor oil used on the scalp to regrow hair. Will castor oil make my face grow more hair? I'm already at the age of random whiskers on my chin and neck and do not want to risk encouraging more with castor oil on my face. Is castor oil going to encourage more facial hair growth?

Castor oil doesnt even stimulate hair growth. People use it on the scalp but whats really stimulating hair growth is the fact that they would massage afterwards.

I've actually also wondered about that. But also saw someone say what @Min-Taro said.

I’ve read somewhere that it can help hairs on the head grow (I think they are called terminal hairs) and eyebrows and eyelashes, but not vellus hairs like that found on the sides of the face. I’m not sure if that it true, but I found the terms “terminal” and “vellus” hairs interesting when I heard it and it helped me remember it

@@MT-mc4zn I understand, but vellus hairs can become terminal hairs under certain hormonal changes - like perimenopause. Would castor oil have an effect on increasing thickness or length of facial hair (if one wasn't shaving,) or worse - encourage more to become whiskers?

@@LyvvieI use castor oil on my face almost every night it hasn't increased my menopausal stache lol it has grown my eyebrows and eyelashes.

My warts spread from one side of face to other due to dermaplaning. Kindly beware.

When dermaplanning leave your skin alone for a day no makeup or products that do more then the essential just leave it alone. Otherwise you'll break out also advisable to stay out of the sun for long duration.

Gua Sha helps my sinuses. I took tutorials on how to use. Pressure should be like the weight of a nickel.

If i don't dermaplane my face my makeup looks like absolute garbage

The way you said petroleum! Wow. Thats said differently in the UK .

I need somebody's input on moving up to Tretinoin 01...or whatever comes after .050? Is it .075 or .01? I have some texture issues, dark spots and yes some scars(see other post)on my face. I spent 4 months on TRET .025. and 6 months on .050. It helped with some collagen building and texture improvement that I badly needed. I mixed a ceramide barrier cream in equal parts at bedtime...with TRET the entire year. I never had a negative reaction. I want to move to the next level...but also want to be safe? I appreciate anyone who can help me figure it out? thx

Omg! I’ve had so many mishaps with dermaplaning! I swear my neighbors must of thought I was on meth due to the way my skin looked with flare ups, break outs and cuts!!!

Yes, yes, yes. I fu*ked up my perfect skin. After being motivated by some influencer, I just did it and shaved my face. It felt great at 1st. Smooth soft. But bam, I started to break out after a week, and I was just lost as a newbie. Nobody in my family ever had skin problems, so I am 1st to break it ( Then I moved to another country, and it triggered my acne more. I got scars and a worse time in my 21 years of life. I had no idea how to control it, and now I have to shave my face every week once else it looks weird. In the way of bumpy face, I started skin care. Now, 3 years in skin care. Break out is controlled. But those scars are taking forever. Though it's a lot better and I am traumatized by this. So ladies think and do properly. One wrong step, and it is done for life time

i removed my peach fuzz for the first time last week , im pregnant and for the first time in my life am struggling with acne and thought it would help my skincare do its job better , and all i can say is i hate it and cant wait for it to grow back 🤣

I am so insecure about the dark hair on my chin. I also have acne all over my chin and plucking or dermaplaning is the only way to get rid of it for me but always breaks me out 😢 Its a constant cycle

Have you tried getting it threaded at a salon? It removes the hair and isn't so rough on the skin. It's pretty affordable too, depending on where you go.

Get your hormones checked. A good dermatologist and gynecologist should be able to prescribe you something to stop the facial hair and chin acne which is normally hormonal

Also, dermaplane at night! Don't put makeup right over it because it will break you out.

Are people not able to just listen to a person talk without interrupting it every 5 seconds with some dumb sound effects anymore? WTF.

@@megan893 I get it, but I don't think that's healthy for our mind. It's like the way we are brought up in society today with so many distractions, then people wonder why they have a hard time being alone in quiet or why they can't read a book or why they can't meditate. Just saying.
