Same. Tallow stinks. You have to dump an ungodly amount of fragrance oil into it to mask the smell. It’s not worth it when there so many great moisturizers already on the market.
I can understand people wanting to know exactly what products we put on our body, and I admittedly am guilty of believing this fearmonger-y narrative and making DIY skincare in my younger years. Once I went to college for degree in science, that’s when I got humbled and learned I don’t know ๐ฉ about skincare product formulations, and there’s a reason many cosmetic scientists have degrees in chemistry, if not graduate degrees! I am so thankful there are people out there who understand things like ingredient and skin interactions, product formulation and stability, and how to keep products from growing bacteria/mold/who-knows-what, because I don’t! Not to mention the clinical research that typically follows! I could have never gotten that level of certainty making whatever DIY face mask/moisturizer teenage-me was getting from “researched” blog posts. Nowadays, I exercise healthy skepticism, but am more than happy purchasing skincare from the experts who spent years researching and formulating products (and my skin has never looked better๐).
Thank you. It’s such a difficult situation. You almost can’t fight all of the fear mongering on social media because the influencer makes it sound so convincing, and they usually target kids or teens who don’t have former knowledge of the product except a scary documentary they might’ve watched. I’ve learned that an educated minority always beats an uninformed majority. Even if everyone did their own research, how do you research? What do you look for? Are these studies reputable? Is there bias here? Was the experiment done correctly? How long ago was it done? You know what I mean? It’s almost easier to believe the fearmongerers. And they’ll keep doing it because ๐ค๐ฐ๐ฒ. It’s so frustrating. But just like you, now whenever I come across someone on social media now that’s like, “look at the name of this chemical I can’t pronounce!” Or, “this chemical was used in this one thing, and now it’s being used in this other thing so that must mean it’s bad for us”, I am VERY skeptical. I tend to believe people that want to dispel fear and provide facts. I’m very much of the belief that we should just use what works for us. Everyone’s body is different. Find what works for you through trial and error.
@@Ssssssmmmmmmmmmcvs brand moisturizer is super cheap heck even amazon sells a standard โmoisturizerโ lol i just dont buy this excuse!! Skincare is basic af: cleanse moisturize spf. Treatments can be a necessity for medical purposes like acne, rosacea, etc and those treatments are budgeted
Yes! Let’s make our skin worse with homemade creams that go bad! Let’s not go for creams created by scientists and tested extensively. That’s a good idea. Not. I’m a CERAVE woman myself. At 57 years old, I have the best skin ever.
๐ on my phone screen, Dr Dray’s profile picture perfectly fits over La Roche Posay’,s, so for like 2 seconds i was wondering why they had Dr Dray’s picture as their profile ๐
I think the Taking Notes comment meant that La Roche Posay might be taking notes on the fact that people can make this at home. However, we know this is not realistic for many reasons. La Roche Posay is NOT taking notes. Their products are superior to this. It was an offhand silly comment that doesnโt make sense.
The internet is so wild these days ๐
The comments from the brands at the end ๐ ๐๐๐๐คฃโฆ really ??!!!
okay but where’s the hydration? I only see emollients and occlusives
She added hyaluronic acid & glycerin
@@DrDrayzday oh okay, thanks for informing, I didn’t see the original video
Pass on smelling beefy.

I meanโฆ we already smell like hot dog water from our Vitamin C serumsโฆ whatโs a little beefy additive on top? ๐
That is soooooo loco mania :0
Lol your comments on the comments were hilarious!
“What are we taking notes on!?”๐คฃ๐๐คฃ

Taking notes on NOT what to do. ๐๐
not those brands comments yall what are we doing ๐ญ
Not cerave and la roche posay commenting ๐๐
They need to fire their social media person
@@rumblefish9why? the comments are funny. almost like theyโre making fun of people who do this nonsense
We did this years ago because choices were so limited. But these days? WHY?!
Because the cost of living is insanely high.
@@Ssssssmmmmmmmmmyes, but Iโm pretty sure the cost of buying all the necessary ingredients is higher then just buying a simple moisturiser.
Just for views

Can’t wait to use my La Roche Posay beef tallow moisturizer ๐ฅฐ๐

That must feel absolutely disgusting on the skin.
It feels absolutely amazing on the skin
@@JowitaChanowska sure
You can easily buy a cheap lightweight emollient from a pharmacy for like a 1$ or so instead of spending 10+ dollars on this thick emollient
Unbelievable. That alone makes me want to shop Avene exclusively for a minute.
These companies leave clever or funny comments on popular pages to drive more traffic to their page lol๐

to be fair, the people running the social media accounts probably aren’t the ones who know how to make the product ๐คฃ
I love beef tallow as a moisturizer. People have used it for generations. I use it after my routine and my aging skin has never felt better!
