How to be like Jang Wonyoung

As many of you requested, part 2 of my it girls series is all about Jang Wonyeong, who's not only absolutely STUNNING, but also incredibly talented, hardworking, and of course successful. Let's get right into it!! <33

Wonyoungs Energy:

Wonyoung is incredibly charismatic, which makes her stand out without even trying!!

She has a bubbly and likeable Personality, Wonyoung appears happy and welcoming, she easily lights up a room with just her presence.

Aside from being cute and cheerful, Wonyoung is also known for being extremely hardworking!!

Confident and Unbothered. Despite receiving quite a bit of unnecessary hate, Wonyoung stays indifferent and true to herself!!

Elegant and feminine. No one does the ‘Elegant feminine self-love girly’ aesthetic like her, she is THE girly girl!! <3

Mindset:

Learn to deal with jealousy, Wonyoung gets plenty of hate, but let's be real for a second… we all know that is because of jealousy. Pretty, successful, smart, and popular? Of course, people will be jealous!!

“While practising self-love, you see good and pretty things about yourself. If I focus only on those things, I don't need to pay much attention to the criticism.”

Don't compare yourself to others “You are you, I am me”.

Keep to yourself. Stop telling people your ideas, your dreams and how you plan to archive them, your goals etc. Let your actions speak for themself!! <3

No more negative self-talk!!

Be your number 1 priority!! Take care of yourself, do what's good for you, eat well, care for your body, skincare, haircare, and your education!! PRIORITIES

Skincare

Skincare. Wonyoung has Flawless skin, finding a skincare routine that works for you can help you archive similar results!!

Wonyoungs skincare routine:

According to Google, Wonyoung only uses Innisfree products and starts by double cleansing her face, for that, she uses the Green Tea Cleansing Oil ($24), and the Green Tea Amino Acid Face Cleanser ($12)

To get the dewy class skin effect, hydration is key!! In the morning, Wonyoung likes using the Green Tea Hyaluronic Acid Serum ($30) and the Dewy Glow Tone-up Cream ($26)

Of course, you can't forget SPF. Wonyoung uses the Mild Cica Sunscreen Tone-Up SPF 50+ PA ++++, which is also great for acne-prone and sensitive skin types!! :)

For her night routine, she likes the Retinol Cica Moisture Recovery Serum ($37) and the Dewy Glow Jelly Cream ($26).

Elevate your daily life:

Healthy diet. Eating nutritious and healthy food is the first and most important step to clear skin and an overall good feeling!! Make sure to eat enough protein (ex. yoghurt, chicken, tofu or eggs), lots of fruits and veggies, and healthy fats (ex. Avocados, fish, nuts, olive oil)!!

Exercise daily. Besides dancing, Wonyoung loves pilates!! You can find lots of great Pilates videos on YouTube!!

Work on your posture!! Having good posture will not only make you feel better but also lets you appear more confident, elegant and put together. Try daily stretching and exercises to improve it <3

Try establishing a proper morning and night routine, this can help you stay structured and relaxed even on more messy and busy days.

Content that makes you feel better!! Start watching channels like thewizardliz, vogue beauty secrets, and read motivating blogs. (like mine lol <3)

Makeup:

Wonyoung is known for her iconic glittery and feminine make-up!!

Light pink blush, plump lips, glowy skin and a glittery but not too heavy eye look.

Foundation on the centre of your face and blend outwards for a naturally contoured look.

Always apply your matt products before your shimmers, that way, your makeup looks cleaner!! Also, apply your glitters from finest to chunkiest. :)

Don't apply your shimmers/glitters past the middle of your eyelid to avoid looking puffy.

If you have warm-toned skin, go for peachy glitters, for cool-toned skin, choose a champagne-coloured one.

If your struggle with dark under eyes, blend your concealer with your fingers!! This will give it a lot more coverage.

You can find lots of tutorials on Wonyoung-inspired make-up on YouTube, this one is my favourite.

I hope this little guide was helpful, I wasn't too familiar with Wonyoung, but I did some research since she was the number 1 most requested person for this!! :)

As always, please feel free to share your own suggestions in the comments and let me know who you want me to write about next! <3

GROWING OUT + STYLING YOUR LASHES

Minimise the use of mascara + if you do use it anyway, ensure that most of the residue is washed off with micellar water before you go to sleep

Avoid lash adhesives, falsies, eyelash curlers etc for the time being.

Using a clean spoolie, brush through your lashes everyday, this helps stimulate them which promotes growth.

Apply oil to your lashes daily- coconut, castor, olive etc etc. use a cotton swab for a clean application.

Consider taking biotin, collagen, or vitamin E as supplements for lash growth (consult with your doctor first!)

Avoid touching/rubbing your eyes, as this can pull out some of your lashes.

Use tweezers carefully to style your lashes each morning

To naturally curl your lashes, I just use a small spoolie and warm Vaseline, and leave it for around 1-2 minutes.

Apply some Vaseline there and there because it helps with locking in moisture but don’t apply anything to the roots as it will block the hair follicles for growth

GROWING OUT + STYLING YOUR EYEBROWS

Same things here- wash your face and ensure no make up residue is in your eyebrows + apply oils daily.

Avoid plucking your eyebrows for 12~ weeks. This gives them time to properly grow and actually highlight stray hairs.

Try to wear sunglasses that cover your eyebrows, as excessive UV exposure to your eyebrows can harm the proteins there, which cause them to be brittle and thinner.

Once again apply small amounts of Vaseline but the former still applies.

Exfoliate your eyebrows around 3x a week as it stimulates the follicles which promotes growth

Use eyebrow gel for them to stay put throughout the day, but a good quality one as some can leave white residue.

Fill them in if they’re sparse, but still be diligent. Overfilled eyebrows<<<

Know if an arch, soft arch, or straight eyebrows suit you the best, dear peachie has a good video on this.

[cripplecharacters]

Hi! I am working on a story where one of the three protagonist has a burn scar. This character has from the eye to half their right cheek of a burn; this happened around 9 years ago (the character was 10.)

I am working on historical-fantasy setting, I know you guys are not historians but I was hoping you could help me out with ideas.

In my story, there is a few chapters where the characters go to a snowy mountain for a couple of days, and there are temperatures ranging from 20ºF to 10ºF with snow and harsh wind, is there any protection/possible cream needed for the face and the eye for that situation?

Also, around 10% of the story has fights that include armour (including a helmet to protect the face and the head,) would a character with that type of burn may need a special helmet?

Just to clarify, the character for most of the story doesn't have any mask or anything covering their face, except in the moments of battle where every other character is also using a helmet and armour.

Not sure if there is anything potentially problematic in this, but the character got that injury due to a baby dragon of the family accidentally burning his face (this is a society where dragons are like animals and common in the house.) Because it happened so many years ago there isn't any angst feeling or people in his community commenting about, except in a scene where the protagonists are talking about traumatic things and this character mentioned that they remember when it happened his parents were afraid he was not going to make it, not realizing he was hearing it.

There are other background characters with burns, scars and stumps due to the nature of this world, but I am concentrating in this protagonist right now.

Hi!

For weather this cold, your character would need a LOT of moisturizing creams. Possibly a comical amount. They would help to protect the skin from both the wind and cold. Burn scars don't have the natural oils, so his skin would be very dry normally, let alone during the winter. Even in normal temperatures, it's recommended to apply moisture multiple times a day. If something like sunscreen is available to your character, he would use it too (and often). Burns are sensitive to the sun, and some people use it even when it's cloudy. During the winter it's also commonly used because the snow reflects it. (As you said, I'm very much not a historian and I don't know what would work as non-modern equivalents... I assume that shea butter or olive oils could be on the table here? Certainly better than nothing. Or even just Magical Herb Mixture, if it's fantasy.)

As for the eye protection, I would say that most people in 20ºF to 10ºF (-6ºC to -12ºC) would need it, especially if it's both snowing and windy lol. I have experienced those temperatures and it can be hard to see even without extremely sensitive skin/eyes. But generally yes, harsh wind could be actively painful to someone with a burn scar. If it's too hard on him, he could wear some very loose cloth to cover it (prime example of a scenario where a face covering makes medical and just logical sense). It shouldn't be tight; maybe just a large hood or veil that would still be away from that part of their face.

Note: it could also not be painful at all. Burns come with nerve damage, and sometimes nerves make non-painful stimuli hurt really bad, and sometimes they make it so a person doesn't feel pain when they should. If your character is the second, they would bear it better at the time but still have all the other issues - skin breakdown, contraction, cracking, itching.

Not sure what other kind of eye protection would be available, but even regular glasses would help with the "not getting blasted with wind and snow" part. Make sure that with the protection he wears, it doesn't touch the scar directly. That can be extremely painful and cause skin to break in that kind of environment, especially if he's not a regular at the Snowy Mountain. If they are, they will handle it much better - scars get more or less desensitized with repetitive exposure.

For a helmet, I think having it padded from the inside would be a good idea. Preferably with something relatively smooth (maybe cloth or fur?) so that it doesn't scratch the burn. Potentially something to "stabilize" it (maybe their helmet could be custom-made for their exact head size?) so that it doesn't hit his scar over and over too if it's too large. I appreciate that others characters wear helmets too, and that he does for only a minor part of the story :-) (smile emoji))

The backstory scenario sounds fine to me as well! House pet trying to play and causing an injury is definitely a thing when it comes to facial differences haha. I can imagine that it would be even more common if the pet in question is a dragon and not a regular dog.

Having multiple burn survivors in a world with fire-breathing creatures that live in human homes is a nice element of worldbuilding :) (smile emoji)! I think that if this kind of thing happens often, then some of the resources I mentioned (moisturizes, sunblock) would be more readily available for your main character and people in similar sets of circumstances.

Thank you for your ask, I hope it helped a bit!

Real Skincare Guide

Level 1: breakouts, non-painful, a little scarring

Minimize your skincare routine, all you need is an oil cleanser (if you wear a lot of makeup) than a good foam cleanser, moisturizer, and sunscreen. Repeat the same routine before bed just without the sunscreen.

Wear sunscreen everyday!!!

Always apply more moisturizer than you think you need.

Drink a lot of water (2-3LT)

Get consistent sleep

Take a multi vitamins to balance your hormones. I recommend the One-A-Day Woman’s Vitamins (get a real pill cause the gummies don’t have enough iron)

Work on your stress (breathe work, meditate, journal, yoga, walks, going out with friends, therapy, etc)

Look at what body oils/shampoo/conditioner you are using. Could be your akin reacting poorly to something in there.

Level 2: consistant breakouts, acne, scarring

All the stuff for Level 1 apply.

Minimize your skincare routine and than slowly add back in stuff like hydrochloric acid and retinol. Having an elaborate skincare will just make your skin worse. First, focus on healing your skin barrier.

If you are a teenager, it just might be your hormones/growing pains. It will go away eventually.

Pimple Patches work and are especially good if you are trying to stop touching your face.

Wash your pillow cases every 1-2 weeks.

Try to sleep on your back.

If you pop a pimple than apply an antibiotic ointment.

No point in using anti-aging products if you are under the age of 25. It just won’t do anything for you.

Note that if you take in a lot of nicotine you will breakout. If you smoke and you have bad skin, it probably won’t improve unless you quit or lessen the dosage.

Level 3: painful consistent breakouts/acne/scars, redness, irritability, hurts,

Go see a dermatologist!

Acne is can be a real problem. If your acne is painful seek professional help.

If Accutane is recommended, than I would do it. Based only on the experiences of my friends, I have seen great results after a couple months. There are side effects and it is not for everyone but if a professional says you should than I might consider it.

No topical treatment is going to make those scars go away. You are going to need to laser resurfacing which is like this secret treatment rich people do to clear up their skin. It is expensive but really works. Beauty brands want you to think that the right cream can clear up your skin but if you have bad scarring you are only going to see real results with laser treatments

All of the above recommendations still apply

Your acne does not take away from your beauty or your worth as a human being. Remember that acne is normal and social media is fake.

Product Recommandations:

Disclaimer: Not every product will work for every skin type. Do your research for what will be beat for you!

Modern BG3 AU each charectors walking in on someone putting on a facemask.

Gale: Askes to join you, makes snacks to eat together while they have face and hair masks in watching reality tv.

Astarion: He makes sure you are using the correct thing, "No, that's for energizing, here take this it's moisturizing. No, that one is mine, it has vitamin D and I need more of that." He not only joins you, but pulls out a but of products and it turns into a mini spa.

Karlach: Thinks it looks fun and wants to join in! But gets impatient and peels it off halfway through the setting time.

Shadowheart: Already did her mask for the week, but recommends you wash up with a particular facial cleanser. No you can't use hers buy your own.

Wyll: Wants you to know that you are beautiful with and without face masks and beauty products. Gets you tea to drink while you sit and sits next to you.

Lae'zel: Thinks it is very strange warpaint. "I see you wish to scare your foes before you slay them. Good, good."

Halsin: Wants to reassure you that you look beautful without anything. But, if you still want to do face masks, he recommends natural stuff like honey, bananas, olive oil ect. He is more than happy to make you some.

Jaheria: At first just tries to duck out of the bathroom and leave you to it, but if you can manage it you can convince her to join you or at least do her nails for her.

Minsc: Confused as to why you are smearing things on yourself, and offers to help you make a more precise war look.

Minthara: Unsure of this purpose, and questions if you are attempting to disguise yourself or look better to appeal to someone so you can seduce them, than backstab them and claim their throne.

Durge: Licks the mask.

here’s what i tested this month - march 2024

if you wouldn’t like to see posts like this, block the tag “🤍 lifestyle tag” 🖤

🕯 little disclaimer: these are all my own opinions; nothing incentivized or gifted; all bought on my own; products will always work differently for different people, so these may work differently for you

BYOMA Cleansing Oil ($12.99)

5/5 - I picked this up from my local target - I have been really enjoying this cleanser. When I have on makeup, I use this then the Milky Jelly Cleanser, but a lot of days I use this as my only cleanser. It’s really gentle on the skin and cleanses it without overly stripping it. This is probably one of the best oil cleansers I’ve ever tried. And it’s at Target. I use two pumps for my face. It removes eye makeup very gently and thoroughly without tugging on the skin or lashes. I was able to remove glitter with this too. I’ve personally used olive oil before when my mascara just wouldn’t come off and this cleanser works better than that. For reference.

PACIFICA Vegan Collagen Recovery Night Cream ($26.00)

2/5 - I bought this at target for $22.00 USD and since then there has been a price increase. I really wanted to like this night cream. Now, this is a collagen night cream, which contrary to popular clickbait skincare, does not increase collagen production. It contains collagen, which does not penetrate the deep layers of the skin (where your own collagen is produced), but what it does do is condition the skin a lot. Topical collagen is very good for that. That’s what I bought this with intentions of, since I tend to have normal to dry skin with topical dehydration, plus skin sensitivity. Now, this cream made my skin flush and it really didn’t moisturize as much as I expected it to as a night cream. This has some fragrance in it and I think that’s the ingredient that my skin did not like. It was not a good sensation. Way too expensive for what it is.

Saltair Serum Body Wash ($12.00)

5/5 - I got this at my local target, in scents “Exotic Pulp” and “Lush Greens”. I love both of the scents. As previously mentioned, I have sensitive skin. All my skin is sensitive. I’ve been really struggling to find a good body wash that isn’t very expensive and works for my skin. It’s probably been 4 years of looking for something that worked. This works. This body wash is very gentle without leaving the skin feeling “grubby” or oily. I can use this on my chest, where I have issues with body ache and breakouts, and I believe the niacinamide in this formula actually helped with that. “Exotic Pulp” is a tropical, citrus scent, like mangos, passionfruit, and oranges .”Lush Greens” is a very green smell, like a kale drink, but with a little bit of fruit, very fresh. I love both of these. A lot. I haven’t had dry patches, irritated areas, or hives, which I have had before from other body washes. And it’s $12.

Necessaire Body Wash ($25)

4/5 - I ordered this directly from Necessiare’s website. This is a really good body wash. I don’t really like the “Eucalyptus” scent, but it does smell like diluted eucalyptus, so it does smell like that. This doesn’t irritate my skin, I’m just not a massive smell of the scents. They do have an unscented version available. My biggest issue with it is the price. I don’t want to pay $25 for a body wash. It’s really good though. I just wish it was a little cheaper for how much you get. My favorite scent is “Bergamot” in this line, which is very bergamot and almost mossy. It’s good.

Necessaire Body Lotion ($28)

4/5 - I ordered this directly from Necessaire’s website. This is one of the only body lotions I’ve used that works for my skin. No breakouts, no greasy film, my skin actually absorbs it, and no irritation. My skin does not like coconut oil and this product has none. This one has no fragrance added so that’s not a factor I need to worry about. I hate the price. I don’t wanna pay $28 for something I go through rather quickly. But this lotion saved me this winter. So. I’ll probably still buy it but begrudgingly.

Frenshe Body Wash ($10.99)

3/5 - I got this at my local target. This is a pretty good body wash. I’m personally not crazy about any of the scents, but they are certainly not bad at all. My biggest qualm about this is that it dried out my skin a bit. It left it feeling tight. However, if you can tolerate body wash better than me, you’ll probably like it. I think the scents are generally very gender-neutral.

The Ordinary Glycolic Acid Toner ($13.00)

4/5 - I got this at my local Target since it has an Ulta Beauty inside. I did not buy this for my face initially, I have some areas on my body where I like to exfoliate and my skin reacts to AHA’s very well. This works great on my body, I’ve had no irritation and I‘ve seen improvement in texture/breakouts. I did try this on my face and I did not like it. It has an oily consistency and it just sat on my face really weird. It didn’t really sink into my face well at all. So I really only use this on my body now and honestly, it’s fine because that’s why I bought it in the first place.

Hey there! I saw your makeup post. I’ve performed as a drag king on several occasions so hopefully this helps!

Foundation - yes absolutely. As a fellow round face person by having my face one tone at the beginning really helps make the contour and highlight POP. It also makes the rest of the makeup blend easier (think of foundation as a canvas primer for an oil painting. Also, put either primer or moisturizer on your face before your foundation so you don’t get acne)

Concealer - a concealer two shades lighter than your skin tone is great to use as a “highlighter”

Contour - lots of different products, it can get confusing, but all very much a matter of preference. They sell contour sticks, or if the idea of a brush seems more ideal, they sell contour palettes that look like paint palettes! Then you can use a makeup brush and paint it on

Or: one massive eyeshadow palette. When I first started I would just use all of the brown tones to do all my contouring then use the black to fill in my brows / draw a beard / etc.

Sorry that’s a HUGE info dump, but hopefully helpful! There’s some great videos by drag kings like Hugo Grrrl and Oliver Branch has a video I recall using on YouTube. Good luck! Have fun!

Thanks! Its so impressive how much thought and artistry goes into all this.

I'm starting to think it's just not my scene, but I feel like I have learned a bunch of stuff and I am in awe of people who can do all of this!

[boxingcleverrr]

So with the mind-boggling hilarity of people feeling the need to defend taking care of their skin, I wanted to do an update of my original skincare post. That I of course can't find, presently, as the search function on this site is still useless!

First of all, come to terms with the fact that you are walking around with a giant organ on the outside of your body (ahurhurhur).

Yes, preventing skin cancer is priority one when it comes to your dermis. Sunscreen isn't the only defense, having skin with a healthy moisture barrier is part of that prevention as well. ALSO, one thing a lot of those posts desperately yelping "It'S nOt BeAuTy StAnDaRdS!" leave out is, uh, the scary shit that can happen to your skin when you're elderly. Your skin WILL get thinner, that's just aging. Taking care of it now (keeping it stretchy and moisturized) gives it a better chance of not being paper-thin, to the point that the person taking care of you has to be mindful not to freaking tear it off of you just helping you get dressed.

If you have a strong stomach, go ahead and read some stories from hospice and other types of elder care workers. There's a whole contraption for lowering people down slowly if they're about to fall, all to prevent skin splitting or sloughing off.

Age spots are beautiful. Care-worn wrinkles and laugh lines are beautiful. Your arm skin sloughing off like a glove is not.

Fucking moisturize.

Is a side effect of that care often fewer of those lines? Sure, MAYBE, sometimes. It also doesn't at ALL require 18 expensive steps. Even before I left my job I was mainly using the best I could find for the least amount of money. Almost everything listed I've been using for over a year at least! Aldi-brand skincare is amazingly quality, as you'll see.

Washing:

Lacura Foaming Gel Cleanser: Super gentle and nice for a daily face wash. When I want to use it as a makeup-remover, I'll pump it into a super-soft sea sponge so I can scrub a bit more, albeit gently.

I don't get big breakouts much at this point (regular cleansing and moisturizing will usually chill your skin out eventually re: feeling the need to over-produce oil). But I do keep some Neutrogena Face Wash around for when I get breakouts anywhere, maybe a handful of times a month.

I don't know how much benefit I REALLY see from toner, as far as my pores. They seem fine! Mostly I just loooove the feeling of swiping it on fresh from the fridge, and the coolness does calm down the skin and sooth any puffiness. I still make my own Rosewater Toner with wilting discount grocery store roses and a few drops of lavender oil.

Goops:

Lacura Day And/Or Night Creams: These are SO AFFORDABLE (I'm using Amazon links for ease of reference, they are WAY cheaper directly from Aldi) and make your skin feel like butter. After washing and toning one or the other is what I glop on next, and a little goes a long way. Night cream is important because the skin under your eyes especially is so super thin, it needs that protection as we get older. But eye creams tend to be STUPID EXPENSIVE. Lacura is around $4 at Aldi and I legit see very little difference between it and the unsustainably expensive ones I've tried in the past.

Ponds Dry Skin Cream: The old reliable. I have used it since I was 19 and Oprah said it was good, lol. If you use nothing else on your face, use this (but also sunscreeen, dear gods). After Day or Night cream, this comes next.

A good rule of thumb for all moisturizers is that you don't want it to disappear into your skin immediately OR stay too greasy. As I've gotten older, this one sits on my skin longer, so I tend to only use it at night in the summer. Once it gets cold and dry out, though, morning and night baby.

Vaseline Cocoa Radiant: For the all-over-rest-of-me, you really can't beat it. After every shower or bath, all over everything, damnit. LUBE YOUR DERM.

Oil:

Olive Oil Squalane: My last step of the night is topping my face with a good Squalane before bed. My old job discontinued the one I swear by, pictured above, which, I have no idea why? It feels soooo nice and I saw such good results in the winter especially. I bought up a bunch of bottles from work before it disappeared, haha but there are soooo many options out there for a lot of different prices. Basically you want the main ingredients to be Olive Oil & Herbs, usually Rosemary.

Treat Yourself Tier:

Innersense Harmonic Treatment Oil: I was given a gift card to them for my birthday last year, and yeah they're reeeeeally wom-wom and a little insufferable in their marketing, and they're expensive. HOWEVER, this stuff is infuriatingly great? Nothing was helping my dry scalp until this. I use it instead of the Squalane maybe once a week on my face as well, and it definitely clears up any redness or irritation right away. How dare it be good and also $25 an ounce. But if you can treat yourself, why not!

Dead Sea Mud Masks: Masks are FUN, damnit. If you can ignore all the annoying "detoxing" claims and blah blah, it is a fact that mud masks can really flush out those pores. And they feel nice!

General Habits:

Wash Your Pillowcases: They're full of your face goo, skin cells, and slobber. Not only good for your skin, but just nice. Wash your sheets/bedding more regularly in general, if you're like me then I know you're not doing it enough. Make the change to fragrance-free detergent now if you haven't already, that shit could start bothering your skin at ANY time. My mother never had a problem with good ol' Tide, until she turned 60 and suddenly ANY fragranced soaps made her skin explode.

Wash Your Makeup Tools: Same as above, I regularly gross myself out watching all the GUNK that's stored in the pretty pink makeup brushes.

Wash Hats, Headbands, Etc: Hopefully the pattern is sinking in. If it touches your skin regularly? It should be washed regularly. It's easy to remember that your clothes do, of course, but there's so many other things as well that are fulla your skin cells, various products, pollution, and sebum. Scientists could probably clone you with access to the inner band of your favorite hat alone.

SUN SCREEN: EVERY TIME YOU GO OUT IN VIEW OF THE FIRE ORB. Sensitive face/skin? Baby sunscreen. I know texture is a big thing for people, but there are lots of different brands out there that have lots of different textures, ingredients, scents, etc. Don't give up on it just because Coppertone makes you break out, you owe it to yourself to find the thing that works for you. Skin cancer is a bitch that spares no one, not even Hugh Nicest Man Ever Jackman.

Drink Water: You know it, I know it, same as above, find the way to get regular hydration in that works for you. I personally like making my own fruity flavored syrups to dash in things. Hydrated skin begins from within, blah blah blah.

Vitamins: Take a multi-vitamin, get your vitamin D. The sun is not BEAMING VITAMINS INTO YOUR PORES, it synthesis it. A quick google will tell you that 8-10 minutes in the sun A DAY is all you need. So don't let anyone tell you BUT YOUR VITAMIN D!!!!!!! when you're layering on your sun screen. Take your vitamins, get a teaspoon of sun regularly, and then GOOP UP.

I'm no expert, just someone with a mother & grandmother who greatly regret/regretted their lack of skin care as younger women. My mom is 75 and she has lines and spots, and she's beautiful! But her skin can tear after a clumsy trip into a door frame. She's listening to her dermatologist now to the letter, and I too would like to avoid that as much as possible! We all deserve to like how our spongy flesh prisons feel.

Review of YADAH's Green Tea Pure Cleansing Balm

YADAH is a Korean brand that cares about the health of your skin and the planet. They aim to make products from the best and safest natural ingredients. Their Green Tea Pure Cleansing Balm is designed to remove fine dust and oil in addition to heavy makeup, it’s designed in particular for sensitive skin. Key ingredients include 0.3% of green tea leaf powder (improves skin complexion, anti-aging, soothing, tones skin), olive fruit oil (moisturizing, anti-aging, healing, anti-inflammatory, anti-wrinkle, gently exfoliating), sunflower seed oil (moisturizing, vitamin-rich, anti-aging, treats dry skin), lavender oil (detoxifying, anti-acne, healing, skin toning, brightening) and tocopherol (strengthens skin, increases moisture, improves elasticity, moisturizing). This product retails for between $14-22 USD, you can get it here for $14.94 + shipping.

Ingredients

Olea Europaea (Olive) Fruit Oil, Cetyl Ethylhexanoate, Ethylhexyl Palmitate, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, PEG-20 Glyceryl Triisostearate, Beeswax, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Water, Phenoxyethanol, Butylene Glycol, Camellia Sinensis Leaf Powder (0.3%), Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, Ethylhexylglycerin, Citrus Limon (Lemon) Peel Oil, Citrus Medica Vulgaris (Citron) Peel Oil, Citrus Grandis (Grapefruit) Peel Oil, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Oil, Citrus Nobilis (Mandarin Orange) Peel Oil, Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender) Oil, Eucalyptus Globulus Leaf Oil, Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf Oil, Tocopherol, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Flower Oil

To quickly note, I received this for free from Picky and YADAH in exchange for my honest review.

The balm contains 100 ml (3.38 oz) and doesn’t have a noticeable fragrance, but it does contain many essential oils.

The balm is pretty standard and doesn’t feel too heavy.

It's pretty oily and does start to break down to a more liquid form pretty fast.

It removes makeup very nicely and is non-stripping.

It doesn’t leave any oil residue once rinsed off.

Recommended use is to place an appropriate amount on dry hands and face and gently massage into the skin. It’s easy to rinse off or remove with tissue paper. It’s recommended to follow up with a cleansing foam. This is specifically formulated for sensitive skin. After using, so there are many essential oils in the ingredients list so this product is not fragrance-free. The physical fragrance isn't very noticeable, however. The cleansing balm has a very easy texture to work with and despite having a fair amount of irritants, this is a very gentle product that is suitable to any skin type, even to sensitive skin as I didn't personally notice any irritation. The ingredients are all very helpful in the skin maintaining moisture without being stripping or leaving a film or residue behind. I found this worked really well to remove dirt and gunk from my pores as well, it's also been gentle around my recent nose piercing. It's great to use as a double cleanse, both steps really help you feel clean without leaving the skin tight. I'd recommend this to anyone with dry, sensitive skin with enlarged pores.

What I like: this balm is very gentle, non-irritating, non-stripping and doesn't leave any film or residue. It's effective at removing dirt and oil and makeup is really nice to help loosen extra dirt from the pores. What I don't like: while it didn't affect me, there are several essential oils in this which can be irritants.

Pros:

Non-stripping

Gentle

Breaks down makeup easily

Removes dirt and oil effectively

Sensitive skin friendly

Doesn't leave a film or residue

Cons:

Contains irritants

Would I buy this?

Yes

Rating: 8/10

Taking a break from my usual fare to review some products from Aleppo Savon, founded by Abdulfatah Sabouni, a fourth generation soapmaker from Syria who settled in Calgary, Alberta in Canada.

The company started the first Syrian soap production facility in Canada and follows a traditional recipe using laurel berry oil which has antibacterial properties.

I just finished using my 20% Laurel Aleppo Soap and it’s become one of my favourite bar soaps. It has a gentle, clean scent, produces a silky lather and does not strip the skin of moisture. It also leaves your skin soft with a subtle scent. While I wouldn’t recommend it for daily facial cleansing, I do find it’s gentle enough to use on the face while cleansing enough to remove eye makeup. Also, it’s fantastic for cleaning my Knix period knickers. The antibacterial formula leaves them smelling so fresh, I now prefer to hand wash them for a couple minutes with this bar rather than run them through a washing machine cycle with detergent.

I haven’t used the 10% Laurel Aleppo Soap bar yet (not pictured), but the extra 10% makes a huge difference in scent. It’s actually a bit stronger and heavier. As well, the bar itself is soft with a bit of an oily, tacky feel. I’ll update here about how it lathers and cleanses when I can.

I also picked up some scented bars, including Jasmine, Sandalwood, Rose and Oud. The Jasmine, Sandalwood and Rose are not formulated with the laurel berry recipe and produce a richer and creamier lather though I feel like the 20% laurel formula is more moisturizing. I’m guessing the richer lather comes from the coconut oil but I do not detect any coconut scent. The Jasmine smells divine, a little heady but free of anything suggesting the indolic and not overpowering like say, a LUSH soap. This is probably my favourite of the four scents and jasmine lovers might want to consider trying this. The Sandalwood is also substantial, aromatic and creamy smelling. There’s nothing harsh, none of the overpowering clean musks that can fill out synthetic sandalwood fragrances. The Rose was a little more disappointing as I was hoping for a rosewater scent and this was more of a general fresh floral. As for the Oud, this one was the most subtle, with olive oil dominating the scent. As well, this bar produced the least lather to the point where it felt almost more like an oil cleanse. It was not greasy however, and washed off easily but I prefer more of a lather in my soaps.

Finally, in a surprize find, I bought the Jasmine Breeze bath bomb on a whim and the website is not kidding, this is really the most luxurious bath bomb I’ve ever tried. I’m guessing it’s the oatmeal and cream of tartar that leaves the skin very moisturized. The jasmine scent is again, gorgeous, heady and clean though much stronger than the soap. Highly recommended if you enjoy long soaks in the tub.

10 Natural Dry Skin Remedies You Can DIY at Home

Sometimes we don’t pay much attention to caring for our skin, even though it’s the largest organ in the body. Skin suffers from dryness due to winter weather, hot showers and vigorous scrubbing with a towel when we dry ourselves.

You don’t have to head out to buy expensive lotions and potions to rehydrate your skin – your kitchen may already contain all the ingredients you need. Natural remedies are also better for your skin, as they don’t contain all the extra chemicals that manufactured skin creams have in them.

Here are 10 simple and all-natural remedies for dry skin:

1. Olive Oil Cleanser

Olive oil works as a natural cleanser and moisturizer.  All you need to do is rub the oil on your skin and drape a warm, damp cloth over your face until it cools. Wipe away any excess oil and you’re done. Olive oil is a good choice for a skin cleanser because it doesn’t strip away your skin’s natural oils.

2. Rich Avocado Mask

The creamy richness of avocado works well to soothe dry skin. We suggest pureeing half an avocado and mixing it with a teaspoon of olive oil. If your skin is very dry, add a tablespoon of honey too. Apply the mask and leave on for 15 to 20 minutes. For an extra moisture boost, apply your regular moisturizer after you have removed the mask.

3. Olive Oil and Sugar Scrub

This combination makes a great exfoliating scrub with moisturizing benefits. Mix half a cup of sugar with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. You can also add an essential oil, such as lavender, to give a soothing fragrance.

Rub the mixed ingredients into your skin, and then wash off. Apply a moisturizer to double up on the benefits of exfoliated skin.

4. Oatmeal Bath Soak

Add a cup of oatmeal to a warm bath, and enjoy the benefits of rehydrated skin. The oat product has skin-soothing properties, and it also helps your skin to retain moisture from the water.

5. Homemade Oatmeal Honey Mask

Oatmeal also makes a good mask or exfoliator. Mix 2 tablespoons of oats with a tablespoon of honey and a dash of water. Gently warm the mixture, then rub it onto your skin. It can be used as an exfoliator and washed off straight away, or you can leave it on for around 15 to 20 minutes as a hydrating mask.

6. Coconut Oil

Coconut oil isn’t just useful in the kitchen – use it as a moisturizing cream at bedtime. Because it is solid at room temperature, it can be applied easily. If you have chapped hands and feet, apply the oil, then cover with thick socks or non-latex gloves.

7. Add Oil to Your Bath

Natural oils such as olive, coconut, argan and avocado oil can be used as a bath soak to moisturize skin and protect the natural skin barrier, which is often stripped away by washing with drying soaps that remove the natural oils from the skin.

Add a few tablespoons of oil under running bath water. If you don’t fancy scrubbing the oil slick off the bath after you’ve finished, rub a small amount of oil to your skin after your bath instead.

8. Milk Compresses

Milk has natural anti-inflammatory properties, and it contains lactic acid, which works as a mild, natural exfoliant. Apply milk compresses to your skin for 5 to 10 minutes at a time. It’s great for irritated, itchy skin too, but lactic acid can sting cracked skin, so use with caution. Apply milk by soaking a washcloth in a bowl of cold milk and then pressing it against your driest, itchiest spots for a few minutes.

9. Fruit Enzyme Cleanser or Exfoliant

Fruit enzymes can really help your skin during cold weather. The alpha-hydroxy acids exfoliate the top layer of dull, dead skin cells on the face and body.

Use a pineapple, pumpkin or papaya fruit-enzyme face mask twice a week for bright skin.

10. Aloe Vera

Aloe vera gel isn’t just for treating sunburn. It can help your skin during the winter months by reducing redness and irritation due to dryness.

Some people can develop allergic contact dermatitis from aloe, so do a patch test first before applying it to a big area of skin.

what’s your skin routine tell me everything

Omg thank u SO much for asking!!!!

I start with washing my face with a basic cleanser and a bucket of holy water! Holy water does an amazing job at keeping the unfathomable sins from aging the skin!

Next, I exfoliate with a sugar scrub I make myself! Here's my recipe:

1 cup of sugar (can be substituted with glass shards)

3/4 cup of an oil of your choosing (i usually use coconut or extra extra virgin olive oil. Can never get too holy!)

A few drops of peppermint essential oil (i love how it just fucking burns! ☺️)

Once I'm done with that, I use a toner to cleanse the oils from my skin! I like using straight ethanol on a cotton pad. If you have dry skin, you might not need this step.

Here is where you would use an acne treatment if you need it, but I'm perfect, actually, so I just don't get acne like you peasants do ☺️☀️✨

Then to moisturize, (I've definitely used this tip before), I use the blood of my enemies! It keeps the skin luminous and youthful! It can also be used to make a hair mask, if anyone wants my recipe for that. And an extra bonus, it puts a real pep in my step at the beginning of the day :)

If you follow all these steps twice a day and thrice on blood moons, you can be perfect! Just like me 🤗

Follow for more health and beauty tips!!!

Home Remedies For Skin

Even if there are so many skincare and cosmetic goods on the market, home cures are always in style. We offer a great deal. You name it, there is a home cure for it: for dry skin, oily skin, to achieve clear, glowing skin, to get rid of pimples and rashes. We have a wide variety of natural ingredients that work wonders for our skin, such orange zest, cinnamon, and turmeric, that can be found right there in our kitchen cupboards and have been passed down through generations. So, let’s look at some at-home skin treatments you can attempt.

Natural Treatments For Oily Skin

Sebum, a fatty, waxy substance produced by the sebaceous glands found beneath the skin’s surface, is overproduced and leads to oily skin. Sebum moisturizes the skin, so it’s not always a bad thing, but too much of it can clog your pores and result in acne. Home remedies might be your go-to tricks if you’re seeking for ways to control it but don’t want to spend a lot of money on pricey products. Here are five natural treatments for oily skin:

Honey

This common culinary item works wonders for the skin. It has natural antibacterial and antiseptic properties as well as being a humectant, which means that it draws out oil from the skin while retaining moisture. Here’s how to put it to use:

· Raw honey is what you require.

· To your skin, apply a thin layer of it.

· Give it 10 to 15 minutes to dry.

· After that, wash it with water.

Multani Mitti (Earth of Fuller) Multani mitti is a mainstay of the natural skincare regimen in India. Since it both nourishes the skin and eliminates excess oil, it is very advantageous for oily skin.

· Take some of it and put it in a dish to make a multani mitti pack. It is easily available in the market in powdered form.

· To make a paste, mix in some rosewater.

· Apply it to your face and neck, then wait a few minutes for it to dry.

· After it has dried, wash it with water.

Aloe Vera

· This is yet another all-natural element that is frequently used to maintain healthy skin, including the control of excess oil.

· You should apply some Aloe Vera gel to your skin and wait a while. It may also be used overnight.

· Use water to clean it, then pat it dry.

· Aloe Vera might trigger an allergic reaction in people with sensitive skin, it should be mentioned. It is always to first try it in a small area.

Tomatoes

· Tomatoes contain salicylic acid, which is used to treat acne and is a fantastic natural cleaner. Additionally, it aids in removing the skin’s extra oil.

· Juice from tomatoes, please. Cut a tomato in half to prepare it. Pick one half, crush it, and strain the juice.

· Put some on your neck and face.

· For 10 to 15 minutes, leave it.

· Use water to wash it, then pat it dry.

Coffee

· Who knew that drinking coffee, which awakens and alerts you, might help your skin get rid of extra oil?

· Add some honey and coffee powder together.

· Gently massage your face and neck after applying this scrub.

· Following that, rinse it with warm water and pat it dry.

Natural Treatments For Dry Skin

The primary cause of dry skin is the climate, namely when there is little moisture in the air. Other contributing variables include using a harsh cleaner, taking a hot shower, or having a skin problem. If you don’t have a major medical condition, you can treat dry skin at home using the following methods:

Coconut Oil

Coconut moisturizes and smoothens the skin, making it good for dry skin. Simply use coconut oil after taking a bath or whenever your skin feels dry. Additionally, you don’t need to modify it in any way.

Olive Oil

· Olive oil is another excellent choice for dry skin.

· To make a scrub, combine sugar and olive oil.

· Apply it and gently massage it into your face and neck.

· Use water to wash it off.

Petroleum glycerin

In the winter, this is commonly utilized. It moisturizes the skin from the inside out as well as on the surface. Applying petroleum jelly to the dry skin or dry spots is what you need to do.

Oatmeal

This traditional breakfast food is effective in curing dry skin. Oatmeal and honey can be used to provide an exfoliant:

· Add some honey to some porridge. If you want to thin out the consistency, you can also add extra water.

· Apply it to your face and neck and gently massage.

· Use water to wash it off.

Natural Treatments For Clear Skin

Although both oily and dry skin can have their share of challenges, combination skin is not immune to these concerns. Our skin is exposed to heat and pollution throughout the day. A bad diet also has an impact. Our skin becomes drab and pallid when the pores fill with debris. Who doesn’t want skin that is clear? Here are some natural cures that could be useful:

Papaya

This tropical fruit eliminates dead skin cells when applied on the skin and has antibacterial characteristics. Here’s how to put it to use:

· Mash one-half of a ripe papaya.

· Make a paste out of it by mixing in some honey.

· Apply it to your neck and face, then wait 10 to 15 minutes.

· Use water to wash it, then pat it dry.

Turmeric

The benefits of turmeric for the skin are well known to all of us. Because of this, Indian ladies and grooms use it prior to marriage to enhance their attractiveness. It aids in reducing skin pigmentation, acne, and other skin-related problems.

Neem

This evergreen tropical plant is renowned for having antiviral and antibacterial effects. It is especially helpful for skin that is oily and prone to acne. To apply it:

· Make a paste by combining yogurt with half a teaspoon of neem powder.

· Apply it on your face, then wait a while.

· Use water to wash it off.

Best Doctor For Your Home

Home Remedies For Acne

Probably the most frequent skincare issue is acne. Many people receive medical care for it. However, if you want to look into some natural and DIY methods, here are some acne home remedies:

Cinnamon with honey

Both cinnamon and honey have antibacterial qualities and aid in reducing inflammation, both of which contribute to acne. This makes them a great combination to combat this widespread skincare problem.

· To make a paste, combine two teaspoons of honey with some cinnamon.

· Apply it to your skin and let it sit for ten to fifteen minutes.

· After that, wash it with water.

Leaf tea

· We are all aware of green tea’s positive health effects. Many people think that using it on the skin will fight acne.

· When the water is boiling, add some green tea and let it cool.

· Use a cotton ball to clean your face.

· After letting it dry, clean it with water.

Aloe Vera

Many skincare treatments employ this tropical herb. Although it is typically used to treat inflammation, rashes, and wounds, it is also used to treat acne.

· Aloe Vera gel should be applied to the face and left on for a while.

· Clean it with water.

Foods For Skin Health

You can use these home treatments to combat certain problems, but your skin also requires hydration from within. You must eat meals that nourish it and keep it in good health. The following items should be a part of your diet if you want to have good skin:

· Tomatoes

· Broccoli

· Carrot

· Spinach

· Peas

· Avocado

· Kiwi

· Berries

· Grapes

· Beans

· Lentils

· Nuts

· Dark chocolate

· Yogurt

· Green tea

· Water

Add these foods to your diet for skin that is healthy. Do not forget that a balanced diet is essential for a healthy body and skin, and that in order to look beautiful on the outside, you must be healthy on the inside.

Common Skin Conditions

Despite the fact that some skin-related conditions can be addressed at home. And you may improve the health of your skin by consuming certain meals. However, some skin conditions may need that you visit a doctor.

· Acne

· Blister

· Hives

· Wart

· Dermatitis

· Eczema

· Melanoma

· Melasma

· Moles

· Lupus

· Ringworm

· Rosacea

· Psoriasis

Even while there are skin cures for acne, you should always contact a doctor if the problem doesn’t go away. The other skin conditions described above are significant ones, and you should consult a dermatologist very away.

If you want to give your skin a break from chemical products and are looking for natural solutions, home remedies are fantastic. Additionally, they are inexpensive, simple to use, and their materials are easily found in the market. You should, however, make sure that you aren’t allergic to any of the ingredients before attempting these. Using them on a smaller region first, then applying them to your face and neck, is an excellent strategy. Once you are certain, you can start to enjoy the wonderful effects of these treatments.
