 Hey guys, it's Monica. I often get asked about products that I've been using a while or For example skin care tools that I've been using So some of the questions that I get a lot are I still dermarolling Do you still use your red like therapy? Do you still use your microderm abrasion? So I I get those types of questions So I'm going to try to be really quick and answer that those questions in this video Stay tuned Am I still a dermarolling? I had done in the past a number of videos about dermarolling and I really I Think saw a benefit of dermarolling when I was dermarolling however, I just thought it to It started to be more uncomfortable than comfortable and I even got like the numbing cream and I would put that on and I fell off the dermarolling bandwagon and I kept saying I'm going to go back on it I'm going to start it up. I never could then I was going to do the pen you know, I thought maybe if I did the pen it would be easier than the actual dermarolling and I didn't do that as well, but I do have the pen that I bought and I should really dig it out and start it, but I just have not so am I still dermarolling? No Will I start up again? I'm going to start up something whether it's dermarolling or if I'm going to be doing the derma pen I'm not sure exactly what yet. Do I still dermaroll my scalp? No For the same reason I find my forehead and my scalp to be super sensitive and that was the high pain areas I also don't wash my hair every day and I Sometimes if I'm washing my hair in the morning, I'm running out and I'm styling my hair and I'm going to work I believe that the best results for dermarolling your scalp is on clean hair So I would have to Alternate my patent probably or adjust my pattern and maybe on a Sunday night, you know something like that But no, I've not done it. I've not started up again Do I believe in the benefits? Yes, I've talked to a number of people who dermaroll who love dermarolling have seen great benefits from dermarolling So I am definitely a slacker right now Definitely a slacker. I so yes, but I do need to to start back up The other question is the microdermabraser. This is the trophy skin and I do this I love this right this this device and I do this probably every six weeks Sometimes more like eight weeks. It really depends on the condition of my skin This was initially sent to me complimentary from trophy skin. I don't know maybe two three years ago to probably more two years ago and I love it. It is it is something that If this were to bust or go away I would either rebuy this or see if I could buy Maybe a do or some sort of an alternate product that does the exact same thing. I like the microderm This is the microderm MD by trophy skin. I think that if you are consistent and you are exfoliating and this is that manual exfoliation and You use it consistently you will start to see an improvement and then when you use it again You're not going to see as much Come off if that makes sense because there are little little filters that you change in here The diamond head and you change and you can see when you are using this exactly how much Gunk is getting off your face. So do I still use that? Absolutely. Do I still like it? Absolutely, would I purchase it? Yes, I would purchase it I would also look to see if there's an alternate product because this was two years ago I believe so, you know, you would have to really look and investigate what's available at the time But I really like the trophy skin The other product that I get questioned a lot about is my for you now I'm going to call it a for you even though I use a for you and I use a dupe So I have the for you and I have the for you many and I have the a dupe So I have because I have a motorhome. I have one that's in the motorhome. I have one that's in the house I love this for washing my face. I will tell you that the for you the big one is I really enjoy the big one. It's you know fits in my hand good It's heavier. It really works good for cleaning my skin The little one the for you many or my dupe is great for traveling in my shower So I have one that's in my sink and when it's in my shower and I have another one That's in my motorhome. So I have found that the for you works fantastic. I love that you can keep it so clean You can sanitize it. I just love the manipulation as far as massaging my skin The dupe that I have for that is called Harry care I actually bought Halle care. Sorry actually bought two of them when I bought this and one is not yet opened It's still in the box. I Mean, I'll tell you. I think I have probably charged this Maybe I've probably had this a good two years now And I may have charged it maybe four or five times if that it holds a charge like you would not believe It is still going strong. I think the between the two of them I must have got a special and that would have been why I bought the second one But I think I probably paid 20 or 25 dollars for this again. This is the Halle care face cleanser Massager, I'm sure you can still get it. It is a perfect dupe for the for you at a I mean at a margin of the pricing. So I think this is awesome. I love the for you I love the for you dupe the for you have a little bag for it I put it in and you know, it it has the USB charger, which I really like So it is my my cleansing system of choice is the for real now The other thing that people always ask me about is the gin amber dolphin This dolphin. Do I still use this? Would I buy this now? I Still use this I use this not Consistently it is not a daily product for me. I will put on some eye cream or whatever and if and if I'm you know home I want to you know, really try to get it to go in deeper. I will massage with this The dolphin also has it has heat and it has the cooling side But the dolphin also has dupes. There are several different dupes for the dolphin and they're at various price points Now this one was sent to me complimentary from gin amber beauty. I like it. I Definitely like this product. I love everything about it. I don't use it every day This is sort of like, oh, you know, maybe every two to three weeks or something or maybe if I could get back on a better System I would use it every day because there was a while there that I was using it And I was using it to help my products go deeper. So I Would check out the dupes. I know that when I last talked about this I had some of you say hey, this stoop is great I don't have any of the dupes because this is still going strong. I've had this for maybe a year and a half Maybe longer. I charge it. It just it just it's it's Solidly built and it does its job as far as and I just use it mainly around my under eye area Which is what I really need So that brings me to the spatula and this is trophy skin Label and this is the spatula now. I use this probably once a week Maybe twice. This is in my bathroom. This is part of my routine after I watch my face And if I'm feeling, you know some even if I'm not feeling it I just really feel that it helps Clean out the sonic pulsation in the water. It's like the sonic you have to have a wet face It helps clean out my pores. So I believe that a spatula Whether it's the Label spatula or another spatula I I believe a device like this that you use more consistently than say a MD abrasion Really helps to clean out those pores and again There's some awesome dupes for this There's a couple of people that I know that use a dupe and I can't remember exactly who they are if I remember I'll put that list in below, but there's some awesome dupes for this, but this is a product that I Would use again. I would buy use again I would continue to use and I would buy if it were to fail me So when I say I would buy for where to fail me, I would probably try one of the dupes Why not? I have nothing against trying dupes speaking of dupes in One of my previous videos. I talked about talked about this in one of my previous videos my new face broke and Long story shot I've gone through two new faces. So I'm trying this dupe. This is Last I looked on sale for $40. I bought mine for 50. I did buy it on eBay I had free shipping at that price. So for blue sheet for blue sheet new face dupe the way I use this Is almost every day since I've had it. I got this in November. So it's been about five weeks Well, I'm not too sure it might be longer when you see this video But I hold I go up and I hold it for like five seconds. I have the intensity level usually on four sometimes on five I do all around my area and my lips especially I can feel a vibration especially when I get to my lips near my teeth of This However, you're using it. I I sometimes use it to help put in my products I've done this on a face mask. I've used a face mask and use this so far This dupe for new face is really working well Now there's a couple of other products that they sell that they have in this product line This is the only one I've used there's another thing They have another product that is something for around your eyes I would stay away from that from everything. I've heard but this is a fantastic product. So I am really loving it I think the new face I'm so excited because even if this busts if this only lasts me a year and it busts I buy another one You know the new face did not last me long at all Now I am still doing the therapy the one that I use the most is the trophy skin This is the red light therapy. I put this on I lie in the couch I'll plug it in and I'll keep my face for it for a little bit of time I also have a mask that I use an LED mask It's not in here because it's in the motor home, but anyways I have it it goes around your face and you strap it on and you kind of look like a a Space person an alien or something like that, right? Because you're strapping it on and it's like all lit up and my husband goes. Oh my god. I use serious. I'm going Yeah, so anyways, I will sometimes wear that. This is light therapy at home from the best life company LED and It's a mask with eye therapeutic therapy rejuvenation Good stuff extremely affordable. I'll make sure that I link it so I do wear those products And I would buy them again, so I am a huge proponent. Is that the right word? I'm a huge advocate for red light therapy. It works to me for my skin So I really like that But those are some of the tools That many of you've asked about that. I'm still using I am going to do an update on my skin care because I've been doing a couple of things Different and I really want to spend the time and talk about the things that I've been doing different in how it's been really affecting my skin and Some it's pretty interesting, so I'm going to do that next But I just wanted to give you this update on my skin to cure tools Here we are at the tail end of 2021 and am I still using them after all this time? And so now you got it. You got it head off the press I am you still using the majority of them and some of them I need to use better and more consistently So that's the scoop stay tuned for my next video will be my skincare update and That's it. Thank you all so much. I'll see you in my next video
