hey everybody it's Chris again welcome
back to my Channel today we are gonna be
talking about skin texture I had an
experience a few months ago and it was
quite traumatizing I know traumatizing
is quite a strong word but it did really
make me feel bad my skin has always been
clear saved for a few pimples here and
there maybe the worst that my skin will
get is maybe two pimples at the same
time so it's always been clear I've
always been taking care of my skin
non-stop but one day after a series of
trips to the beach I was in Bali my skin
suddenly started to feel like there was
some sort of weird texture on it and
because it was so new to me actually
thought that it was sand on my face so I
was in Bali then and when I got back to
my hotel room I went to the washroom and
I wash my face and I used an exfoliator
because I thought my skin had sand on it
so after I exfoliated my face and rinsed
it off I looked in the mirror and my
skin looked clear but I could still feel
the texture there the same sandy texture
and they didn't understand why and so I
ignored it and every time I would wash
my face I would keep exfoliating it and
exfoliating it and exfoliating it every
single day or every single wash so that
would be like about twice a day for some
reason my skin never cleared up in fact
it became so bad that maybe in about a
week to ten days later you could visibly
see the skin texture and I felt so bad
that I couldn't wear any makeup because
piling on foundation on top of it would
only make it look worse I couldn't wear
highlighter at first somebody who loves
makeup as much as I do that was such a
big deal like it really felt bad and I
didn't know what was wrong because I
felt like I was taking care of my skin I
still had the same nighttime skincare
regimen and I always removed my makeup
before going to bed so I was very very
confused I did a lot of research and I
tried on a lot of products in order to
hear that but nothing seemed to work so
fast forward I just wanted to share this
video with you guys because I wanted to
show you exactly what I did to get rid
of that skin texture it's not have
happened overnight so I don't know what
the reason
but according to research and consulting
my dermatologist it turns out that my
skin was actually very very dry then it
may be because I was always under the
Sun and in the beach and exposing my
skin to a lot of aggressors it may also
be because I was very dehydrated and I
didn't drink enough water so of course
the skin became really dry and the
doctor told me to think about skin like
lupa Lakeland so you know when the soil
is very very dry it becomes really
porous and cracki and stuff like that if
you exfoliate that already cracked
surface then you're just gonna get it
more crap right it doesn't make sense so
I was exfoliating and exfoliating and
exfoliating and I was only making my
skin texture worse because I was
aggravating it more and more and more
every time I washed it but what I should
have been doing was drink more water
hydrated and moisturize my skin even
more if you think about it if you have a
dry line or a dry surface area that you
add water to that's slowly by slowly
gonna rehydrate it bring back its life
moisturize it and make it healthy again
and that's exactly what I did to my skin
now it did have it overnight I felt the
skin texture overnight but hearing it is
a totally different story it takes so
much longer I know that when you're
having a bit of skin trouble you wanna
mess with your skin even more you wanna
try out all the products buy all the
products because you're desperate to
cure your skin but what I'm telling you
now is that you should actually let your
skin breathe and just drink a lot of
water and hydrated I tried using the
alpha H which is like an acid sort of
mild peel it's called the alpha H liquid
gold and it did help my skin the first
time I used it but second time I used it
it just really aggravated my skin more
when I woke up my skin was all red and
patchy it just felt so sensitive and I
knew that I wasn't doing good for my
skin so I went to the dermatologist and
she told me that I should stop
exfoliating and I should stop using
these peels because our skin only really
needs to be exfoliated once every 28
days
and to think I was exfoliating my skin
twice a day when you only need to be
exfoliating once every 28 days so can
you imagine how bad I was treating my
skin I was trying to save it but I was
actually really irritating it even more
so the very top layer of our skin is
called our epidermis and that is a very
very thin layer and by exfoliating every
single day I was taking out that layer
and leaving my skin even more exposed to
all these environmental aggressors
that's why I was getting a lot of
irritation and I was so subject to the
sun's UV rays and all these harmful
things because there was no longer that
epidermis layer to protect my skin it's
just a good thing that I remember to
wear sunblock but it could have gotten
way WAY worse and that's why when I
peeled it on top of all the exfoliating
my skin became really red and really
really sensitive the number one thing
that I recommend if you find yourself in
a situation like this is to really
hydrate and moisturize your skin now I
know that there are a lot of
moisturizers out there and serums and
stuff like that but when your skin
becomes really sensitive you want to
stick to products that are more organic
and that are more soft on the skin
especially when it's very very sensitive
and what I recommend you guys using that
really helped me out is something very
affordable and I'm sure you guys are
gonna be happy to know that it's
actually the aloe vera plant and I'm not
talking about the aloe vera that comes
in a gel type that you buy at Watson's
or stuff like that I'm talking about the
actual plant because that way all the
juices and all the things that can
hydrate your skin are still fresh and in
the plant they don't take out anything
to preserve it so what I do with the
aloe vera plant is I cut off a leaf and
then I take out the sharp ends or the
sides using a knife and I cut it up into
pieces I split it in half and you can
already see there's a juicy gel like
texture
I just scrape that onto a little Bowl or
you can also blend it if you like which
is gonna make it easier and it's gonna
give you this goopy sticky transparent
consistency which is what I have over
here right now I just cleanse my face
and apply this all over now it's gonna
feel really gross it's
it's kind of weird but I swear to you I
did this for maybe three four days
Street and it really made my skin feel a
lot better and look a lot better
so you just leather this onto your skin
leave it in for maybe 15 minutes and
then rinse it off and just repeat
whenever your skin needs a little
hydration if you guys are battling skin
texture problems with your skin like I
used to then do give this a try I highly
recommend it it's affordable and you
honestly have nothing to lose so that is
it for today guys I just really wanted
to share this video because I know some
of you out there aren't battling with
this and when I was battling with it I
was researching like crazy about how to
fix it and now that I found my solution
I hope that it can help you fix your
skin problems if you guys like this
video then leave me a thumbs up a
comment down below and I'll see you guys
next time bye
you
