I loved it when you said "if you don't need it, don't buy it" ....thank you for being so real

As someone who suffered from acne most of my life, it can be so frustrating. I recently gave up coffee for matcha & I have to say it has been HUGE for my skin & cortisol levels. Just something I wanted to mention because I don’t think people realize how much coffee can effect your hormones & skin.

For the heat rash, maybe look into if your body care products have an active ingredient that makes sun exposure not good including perfumes applied directly on the skin

can we get an updated chat about the oura ring?!! been really debating on getting one!

Yes same! Definitely would love a review

Omfg freaking outttt I need those cute green heels SO ADORABLE

Can I just say how much I love your videos!! Brooke is so calming and love!

So, not sure if you've done a mini vlog on this, but I'd love to see what skincare products your mom uses!

Such a random acne tip, but as a three-time Accutane gal (who luckily had minimal side effects beyond dryness which was manageable with Aquafor) one of the random recommendations that I got was to use a nail brush while washing hands before washing my face (whether in the shower or sink). I did this right before I started accutane and my skin cleared up pretty dramatically just from making that shift!

Accutane was the best decision I ever made. I did it years ago and now I literally never get pimples, maybe 1 or 2 a year. It was rough in terms of the side effects like the dry skin etc but for me it was short term pain for long term gain. I would do it over and over again.

I always get a heat rash when I travel to warmer places and I always use hydrocortisone cream to help clear it up and it helps with the itchiness 🤗

Accutane saved my skin & i was fortunate enough to have a great experience while taking it. Been like 5-6 years since i finished it and i haven’t had ANY bad breakouts all these years.

2 time accutane girly here and while I would recommend it to get rid of acne it is a HARD drug to be on. You have to follow a very rigid schedule of blood work, testing online, prescription pickup in 7 days etc. The drying out is also very extreme, I had a minimal case of drying out but it aggravated my already existent eczema. I still have side effects like dry eyes and I lost a majority of my eyebrow hair because I rubbed them so much because of the dryness.

And you’re dry all over forever. Your skin will age faster and you’ll still get acne just not cystic.

⁠@@RafaARA093I haven’t had the long term dryness besides my eyes honestly! Maybe because I always have had eczema so I just find it to be normal lol. Also I rarely ever get acne of any kind BUT I did take it twice, two full rounds so that could be why!

Agree with all of this. Also SO much of my hair fell out and 10 years later it still hasn’t come back 🥲 so basically permanent hair loss seems to be a risk as well

@@docp4449I’m so sorry!! I am like the hairiest person ever but my eyebrows just disappeared and it makes n o sense 🤪

I had acl surgery in December. Tell your brother to get a mental health therapist its rough,the recovery is 6-12 months. Also recommend reading Rebound: train your mind to bounce back stronger from sports injuries

I’m on accutane right now and it’s soooo worth it. Everyone I know who has done it says it’s changed their lives. I was just done with being on spironolactone indefinitely and constantly waiting for the next breakout… highly recommend and if you don’t tolerate it well you can just stop

I don’t think accutane is for everyone! especially if your acne is more hormonal. my skin was cleared from acne for about a year until it came back, which is when I learned that accutane will not solve hormonal acne. I also have severe eczema and accutane caused the worst eczema flare up of my life for over 6 months! just wanted to share my experience (:

Yeah that’s valid. Doesn’t work for some people, but I have hormonal acne and this was the only permanent solution besides being on spirited forever. Tried everything for 7 years before resorting to accutane as a last choice and am so glad I did! My confidence skyrocketed and it really wasn’t that terrible of a process personally. But totally not for everyone!!!!

Hey, Brooke! Another fun and happy vlog! Love your cozy aesthetic. Sending you much love and appreciation from Long Island. 🌻❤

Well now that I'm absolutely hooked on your videos and you're my favorite KZreadr you are absolutely beautiful❤

I was DYING for this upload. I went down a hole and watched like 8 of your vids because i have been behind hahahah i need more BROOKE

Brooke I can’t recommend going on accutane enough!! I was like you and had just kind of moderate but persistent and stubborn acne and it completely cleared everything up. I don’t go through good or bad phases anymore and not having to psychoanalyze everything i do to my skin is so freeing.

Would you consider using Retin A prescription for your skin. It’s much easier than accutane. You look beautiful 🌺🌺🌺

Really loved this vlog Brooke, felt so much like just hanging out with you 🥰

missed your vlogs! ❤

Good morning Brooke happy Tuesday morning and I loved your vlogs and you are amazing Supporter and I'm proud of you

Happy April Brooke & Danielle, love your NYC weekly vlog! ❤❤❤❤❤

Hi B Tysm for the vlogs I appreciate them! Sorry about ur heat rash. I am sensitive to the sun too and I stopped using old detergent and changed to all clear and Woolite my body skin improved. I can’t use anything else now. Hope this helps.❤

I have acne & dermatitis so I feel your pain. It’s so frustrating when you’re in the midst of a flair up and nothing in your routine has changed **and** your normal “fixes” aren’t helping. I’m sorry you’re struggling too! Thinking of you!

Your vlogs are always my favorite ❤

At this stage (older than Brooke) I’d try prescription retinol instead of Accutane for acne.

I’d recommend trying Epiduo Forte before Accutane. Also a hyrocortisone cream should help your heat rash. You can get 1% OTC or a higher strength through prescription.

Brooke- look @ polymorphous light eruption rash. (Ie sun allergy) you may need ur dermatologist to give you a prescription for it to clear it up.

I did Accutane twice, and it worked for a while. Been about two years since my second round of it and my cycstic acne has come back… for some people it works better than others!

Loving the vlogs!

I’ve found those pimple patches with micro darts to be really effective when I can feel a pimple coming in from deep under my skin.

love the vlog!!

Brooke have you tried a prescription retinoid? I use Arazlo which is meant for acne and it’s less drying than tretinoin. It helped clear my acne completely with spironolactone!

I remember when my boyfriend (now husband) and I moved in together and not having to pack a weekender bag every single weekend. I was beyond thrilled lol

Love how authentic Brooke is. “Don’t let consumerism win” Slayyy

Since you have a rash maybe the healthy glow product from Cymbiotika will help

Heavy on the oura charge!! Mine only stays charged for 3 days now and I’ve had it for 1.5 years

How much are the Buldak ramen on tiktok shop? I spent over $7 at Walmart today for the same pack 😩

To chime in on the acne conversation: I would advise looking into a tretinoin prescription. It’s just a great medication for not only acne but wrinkles, agjng, overall skin tone. It comes in different strengths so you can increase as you become more tolerant. I’m a nurse practitioner and I personally use it and it’s been great. Struggled with acne my whole life (I’m 36 now). Never wanted to go down the Accutane route, but definitely wish I had started tretinoin in my 20s. Just something to consider or discuss with a healthcare provider if you are interested in pursuing something prescription.

Im inpressed in your videos

prayers for your brother n happy spring

I enjoy watching your Vlogs

Protopic or betaderm ointment are both great prescribed from my dermatologist and those helped with greatly with my heat rash and eczema. So if you could see a dermatologist then this would be great.

Hey girlie try the Cortizone 10, intensive healing lotion for Eczema it’s the only thing that’s been helping me with my Eczema and it’s approved by the National Eczema Association. ☺️

nice vlog brooke

Thinking of Sal and sending healing thoughts for his surgery & recovery! ❤️‍🩹 I’ve torn both my ACLs from soccer injuries and it’s frustrating, but the work you’re willing to put into your physiotherapy after is crucial with the rehab! If he needs it, a scooter or walking stick could be helpful on your Italy trip
