#closedcomedones
FINALLY! Someone gave me an idea of what these bumps might be. Everyone was like "fungal acne" but mine never itch and are skin coloured and sometimes turn into blackheads.
😭Samee
ME TOO
Me
Did you find anything that helped please?
@@rohygge9671 I APPLIED BESAN FLOUR WITH SOME WATER FOR A WEEK AND MY BUMPS ARE GONE 🥰
I’m so upset i found this RIGHT AFTER i used the shampoo. I would like to sincerely apologize to my skin
Omg I did the same thing lol
Sameee I used it like 30 minutes ago
Omddd sis, same same.
Same😭
Almost did that after watching hyram's video but searched fungal acne first and saw the difference
Cathy: Your diet triggers closed comedones! Me: *watching while drinking soda & eating chips* hmm i see
Same whilst having kfc 😂😂
omg same LOL
Same while drinking milk and eating chocolate
*eats chick fil a*
Me too just drinking milk a lot and eating chips and ramen LMAO
people be slashing and roughly rubbing their cleansers all over their skin for 10 seconds and rinse off and then complain abt how their skin texture isn't improving, yeah I wonder why😒 If y'all actually don't know: first, you should wash your hands really good, don't forget to wash under your nails too (you can't wash your face with dirty hands), wet your skin a couple of times (your skin is like a sponge, in order for it to absorb all the good chemicals/ingredients it needs to be wet thoroughly). Apply the cleanser on your hands and rub them to create a foam (if you’re using a different cleanser you should still rub your hands to distribute the liquid equally). Apply on your face in GENTLE motion, I suggest using your middle and ring fingers, especially around your eye area since that skin area is more sensitive. Keep applying the cleanser for a good minute (cleansers take time to absorb into skin and actually start working, so washing your face for 10-15 seconds won't do anything to your skin, you will just waste the product. Applying the cleanser from 1-2 minutes will ensure the ingredients to soak into your skin through the thick barrier and start working. A lot of idols do this technique and their skin is glowing)) I personally like to spread the cleanser from my cheeks, to my nose, to my forehead, and then to my chin (I switch the order too but always do my cheeks first) and finish off with my eye area. Then rinse it off with warm water, don't let it be too cold or too hot because that will also break the skin barrier and stress your skin out, causing more breakouts. Then I wipe my face with a towel lightly, not too much so my skin would be a little bit damp to absorb the moisturizer well. Toner is optional, if you have it then use it but if you don't it's still fine. Pump your moisturizer and spread equally in your hands. Now, my skin type is combo and my concern area is the t-zone so I like to put the moisturizer on my cheeks and whatever is left on my forehead then nose, and then chin (your way may differ depending on your dry areas). LASTLY, this is important, dab your skin lightly to help the moisturizer absorb well and lock in your skin!!! This is also a good tip: Rub your hands to create heat and gently press on your face, this will increase the blood flow in the skin, allowing oxygen and nutrients to move through blood vessels which is essential for the regrowth of damaged tissue)) Give your skin and your skin care ingredients some time (2 months is a good period of time where you can see changes) to get to know each other and work together to make your skin look perfect. Hope this helps :)) oh and PLEASE do not forget about your neck!!! you don't need a special routine for your neck but at least applying toner to wipe off the dust/dirt and applying moisturizer afterwards will help so much, also try doing massages and move your hands from up to down (so going from your chin, apply a little bit of pressure and start moving your hands down all the way to the base of your neck where your shoulders are) this will make your neck look so much better AND DO NOT PLEASE DO NOT FORGET TO WEAR SUNSCREEN WHEN GOING OUT EVEN IF ITS CLOUDY!!! Update: One of my friends told me to try this one skincare/makeup company called SSTAGIONI COSMETICS and yall- I love it😭 I had a lot of dark spots so I decided to buy their vitamin c and you can really see the difference even tho it’s been like 2 weeks?? Also recommend the cleanser (lightweight and doesn’t leave my skin dry), the toner (very moisturizing!!), and the moisturizer bc it also contains spf so it’s a double win.
Ty!
very helpfull!
THANK YOU FOR THE INFO!🙌🏾 Did you study skincare?
@@izzyn9000 I wanted to but but no, I just did a lot of research (like watching videos from qualified dermatologists and skin experts and just Google research) and shared info based off my experience w my skin))
thank you!
Sis keeps on smiling now I can’t stop smiling, she has sunflower, sunny vibes 🥺🧡
frrr she does
for real, she's so cute ❤
Am I the only one that doesn’t get effected by her vibe?
@@mel_7773 Ye
Love her😍
i am now regretting all the money i spent investing in a fungal acne routine, because all the signs of cc hit the nail on the head for me
I do this about 3 times a year, my skin gets bad I watch all these KZhead videos thinking I need all these products and blah blah blah spend way too much money and always end up going back to my everyday cleanser and moisturizer (I use curology)... it’s a viscous cycle!
😭😭😭😭
@@alexandriamangano5418 curology is such a scam I used it forever and it never did anything. Plus my friend and I both had it and we have COMPLETELY different types of acne like could not be more different, and one day I was looking at her ingredients... tell me why it was the EXACT same as mine. Lol that’s when we both realized it’s a money making business that act like they’re all about u but really don’t care to make ur skin any better
@@Rhodes2be1 hey there! I’m sorry to hear that :/ such a bummer! Curology actually did clear my skin up, however I’m not sure if it’s coincidence cuz once I started using curiosity I was let go of a really really stressful job I had due to covid. So I don’t know if it was just like life style change or curology actually helped! I should note now I only use the Curology treatment at night but no longer use their moisturizer or cleanser, my skin scare knowledge had really grown and I just stick to the same products now cuz I know they work!
Same. I was listening to her saying what fungal looks like, and it wasn’t really what mine was, then she started talking about CC and it completely describes my face 😟
Products recommended -gentle exfoliation:low concentration of salicylic (BHA) and glycocylic acid. Use salicylic acid cleanser -retinoids (prevent CCs) -benzoyl peroxide (kill bacs but also hydrate ur skin, use moisturiser) -azelaic acid (prevent bacs frm multiplying too fast)
Can I utilize them all at once, or Should I Just Pick a Few Products?
but im like 15 i cant use retinol so what should i use
@@yuh4390 I am 15 as well, and I used benzoyl peroxide and differin gel🙂
Cerave sa cleanser Paula choice
I have all of that in my routine except retinoids and still can't get rid of ir
Thank you for your no nonsense advice. Me and my bumpy skin really appreciate it.
I was literally about to go get the dandruff shampoo 😂 glad KZhead was like “nah watch this first”
shoooooottt me too I watch Skincare by Hyram and he was like those tiny bumps could be fungal acne when he was talking to Emma Chamberlain so i thought i had them too lol
@maya me too 😂😂😂😂😂 and I used it actually and nothing seems to be happening wrong
@@mayalopez7144 omg same
Me too HAHAHA
Samee!!!! 😅😂
I honestly don’t know what I have and I’m so done with my skin. I always get comments about my skin: „Have u ever heard of skincare?“ „Do u ever wash ur face?“ „Ur face is disgusting“ „I’m eating, go away“. I even find myself disgusting. I hate myself so much bc of my looks. Man I try so many things but it isn’t working for me. Edit: it’s Been 3 months, since then I informed myself a lot about skincare and my skin got SO MUCH better it’s almost perfect and everyone who used to give me these comments is literally asking me for help for their skin and my sister for example who pointed out my skin sm is literally using my products and all that. I love karma
Don't give up! You might want to take a look at your diet and make sure you're not overdoing it on the dairy and sugar and that you're eating a lot of greens and drinking a ton of water! Once I cut back a lot on dairy, sugar and coffee (caffeine can also play a role) I noticed a difference. Just keep telling yourself that this is not permanent, it's only something that you're going through right now. With trial and error you'll figure it out! And if you have the ability to, I would recommend seeing an esthetician to figure out exactly what type of acne you have and getting on a skincare regime that will actually work for you.
If your acne or whatever is really bad and won't go away you might wanna go see a physician. They can prescribe you with medications to help
Listen baby. This world is full of trolls and ik I'm a stranger to you so what I say may not impact you, but I'm still gonna say it because maybe it will: FORGET PEOPLE. These mean butts, who talk about 'eating' and can't do it when you're around, I want you to imagine them as TROLLS. They're the disgusting ones, so make sure you don't eat around them (association). Because that is what they are. I literally don't care if they're pretty on the outside. Inside, they are disgusting. YOU ARE WORTHY! I have terrible acne and sometimes, I don't feel very pretty because of it, but I'm not gonna give up because I am worthy of every damn thing this world has to offer! Even with all its trolls, ion studying a single one of em. Ik it's easier said than done at times, but FAKE IT TIL YOU MAKE IT. It'll work. Love yourself baby and focus on you and God. He is literally the best solution to all issues, truss (idc how cliche that sounds, it is true). Switch your focus to YOURSELF, and ignore the trolls. I promise, endurance, consistency and persistence are the keys to the most beautiful things in life! One day, things will be better and I'm sorry I can't fix it for you this minute, so you're gonna have to take my word for it. BE CONFIDENT! LOVE YOUUUU GIRL!
Omg :( try cutting out all sugary drinks and cut out dairy. Water only!! Lots of it. Cut back on the sweets as well! But nothing wrong in eating 1-2 a week. If you don’t want to see a dermatologist, that means you will have to try multiple products to see what works for you. I hope you can feel confident in your own skin one day
@@Yvonnaanderson thank u sm
Thank you for making this video! I have had these bumps for years! I’m 17, and have found photos of fungal acne, webpages on fungal acne, and finally have some idea on what my skin might have in store. I don’t believe I have fungal acne, thank you for mentioning CC! 🤍🌸🤗
Thank you for this!! Also thanks so much for also including the prices of things in the description next to each item - very helpful!!!
Thank you so much for making this, I thought I had fungal acne until watching this video. Thank god I didn't use shampoo though!
Same
same girlll when i saw hyram and other tiktok videos I thought my small bumps were fungal acne but some of the actual products that can help are really similar to each other
I’ve been using the same shampoo, eating same, been doing whatever I’ve been doing before my FA or CC.. and they just appeared all a sudden. People say it’s stress but there’s are time I haven’t been in school for monthsss. So. Yea...
Everyone recommended using Nizoral shampoo and it totally irritated my skin. It's really harsh and it has pore-clogging ingredients too. I tried it for 4 weeks thinking I had fungal acne, and my skin got so dry, sensitive, and irritated! I usually have very resilient oily skin, but almost any product I put on after was burning. Even only using Nizoral once every few days.
Same!! Glad I didn’t put shampoo in my face! 🙈
Lmao my diet is probably causing all my skin problems. I drink milk everyday and eat sweets a lot 🙂
please stop that 😭 its literally fucking you up inside and out

Wow! Fungal acne and closed comedones are so similar! I thought I had fungal acne (but I didn't really do something to them😂) but after hearing the differences between them, I realized that what I got is closed comedones. It isn't itchy and it is similar color to my skin. I hope these dissappear from our faces🥺
really informative and well produced video! i was always confused with all the "acids" in recent skincare .thx :)
i’m so thankful that you said what colour it would be if our skin is darker!! really thank!!
same, i appreciated that 🤎
Ya great to be inclusive, so we can ALL know what to look for! Esp since darker complexions are skipped over, literally everywhere.
irrelevant but love your name!💜
it made me so happy
Army is everywhere 😭💜
The background music is a little too loud, kinda competing with your voice; but great video! Very informative. Thank you!
Maybe that’s because ur watching with headphones try without them but if not I don’t know why
Agree! Little distracting Still very great video, none the less 👍
Agreed. You’re very charismatic and eloquent, music is overshadowing you.
The background music is sooooo stressful 😌 but the topic is important and I learned a lot.
You make things understand very simply, love your way of talking.
I don't even have either of these conditions, but I'm so glad I clicked and watched. Love how you present with some humor but mostly straightforward and clear explanations that are science-based. I'd love to see a mention of which products are vegan and/or cruelty-free as you are making your recommendations. Thanks and keep up the great work!
My acne stresses me out so much, your videos are such a stressfree antidote to tackle it 😭❤️
you got this! 💪
Same.. makes me cry huhuhu..
The fact that this bumps appeared when I started to use a salicylic acid cleanser 🤷♀️
i tried to use a SA cleanser because of the problem and nothing has changed 😭
Same!
@@galaxypaths1872 i would say give it time, at least 2 months
Salicylic acid makes it worse for me tbh, gives me really bad reactions
use the other things she recommended, maybe salicylic acid just isn’t compatible with your skin.
thank for putting the prices by the products in the description and the links to the articles.
thank you so much for including every skin colour!!
it feels like I have both fungal acne and closed comedones because they aren't itchy, but they go up to my hairline, they're dark-colored, but in different sizes, and sometimes come with pimples, but never turn black, and they're only on my forehead. edit: I've been washing my face with a cerave cleanser and using niacinamide and bha and wearing more sunscreen, they're not as bumpy as before and are kinda smooth but there are still dark brown spots
omg SAME like i have the same problem
Same same
I don't suffer from acne but i have these tiny bumps and the are so so annoying
since niacinamide and bha helped, now u just have to deal with hyperpigmentation (scars/spots). a product with vitamin c (ascorbic acid) or rosehip oil can help with hyperpigmentation

I’m in the UK and my favourite moisturiser is the cetaphil spf 50 daily defence. It’s non comedogenic and it protects your skin throughout the day. I have ‘normal’ to dry skin but the texture isn’t thick/waxy at all so I’d honestly recommend it for all skin types.
me buying a whole fungal acne skincare routine then figuring out i just have cc’s 🥲
Girl same I just spent 40 euros even changed my foundation
YOUR CHANNEL IS INSANELY GOOD AND I HOPE YOU GET MORE RECOGNITION! YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE TOO 🥺
Her smile is contagious, omg, i haven't seen such a smiling face person before.. she is sunshine🤗😇
This is the most accurate video I've watched. I've been to the derma before and these are what they discussed and recommended for me. It really helped me get rid of my cc's.
The EXACT video I need because almost everyone is over-classifying these bumps as fungal acne without going through a more thorough evaluation! Thank you so much 😊
Bruh she’s so fucking organized explaining this whole thing imma subscribe 💯
I have hair that goes over my forhead, and was itching at the bumps at my face. Came here after they started to bleed and was flipping out. This chilled me out, so thank you!
thank you sooo much for this video I have been struggling with this for YEARS and I never knew what it was
I just want to say this because it's important. Pay attention to your body. I was struggling with stomach issues for 2 years and during that time my skin was getting progressively worse. I was diagnosed with IBS in 2019 and that explained a lot. When your gut is out of whack it definitely disrupts everything else. Purchasing products will only be a temporary fix if you don't get to the root cause of it.
Yes!!
I’m seeing this pretty late but what did you do to help your gut health? I feel like this could possibly be the root of mine.
@@jjadabr7421 I struggled until I decided to get a dietitian. We did a blood allergy test and an elimination diet and I slowly added things back in over 3 months. I also started therapy because mental health and stress played a huge role in my gut issues. This helped a bunch! And I know it’s cliche, but exercise. I’m 29 and I’ve had hip and back pain for 2 years because I don’t move my body at all and I sit for 8 hours at work. So I’ve had to incorporate it.
@@esinart93 amazing how a stranger goes through the exact same thing and has your age. Thank you for sharing this, I'm also 29 and currently trying to regulate stress levels and gut issues. Never had acne growing up and suddenly 2 years ago I have the worst break outs. Still trying to listen to my body and do what works for me oh and I noticed gluten made it a lot worse so to eliminate it is smart.
@@alekey5125 when I found out I had IBS I had never heard of it and felt like I was the only person with it. But I’ve learned that a lot of ppl in my community don’t really go to the doctor for stomach issues until it’s too late and they definitely don’t talk about it when it has to do with poop 😂 but I’ve found so many ppl that also suffer from who also have the same underlining issues as me once I started sharing. That’s why I try to comment on post like this.
Omg a skincare channel presenting actual research in an understandable manner?!?!😱 This is great! Thank you so so much for this! 😄
Best video I've found on CCs, been looking into CCs or what I thought were mila for years with very little information!! Finally know enough to create an effective routine
it’s crazy how i had ccs the entire time but didn’t realise and was going hard on exfoliants and active ingredients to fight my acne but they just made the ccs worse!! and i didn’t realise until i went to an aesthetician for a facial and she told me i have mostly closed commedones and/because my skin is incredibly dehydrated!! i’ve been trying to focus on hydration ever since and i hope that will help it 😭😭
Finally someone made this video 😭because I knew I did not have fungal acne but I didn’t know what to do
This is the best explanation ever especially on how u differentiate between CCs and fungal acne. Now I know I have this CCs for like yearssssss and I've tried everything and they never go away 😭😭😭😭
OMG! I’m so happy I found this video after watching Hyram’s video and convincing myself I have Fungal Acne. I was about to buy the shampoo! This video is super helpful, I loved her! And I’m definitely subscribing. I went on crazy months trying a bunch of Korean skincare that I think I messed up my skin and now I have to go back to basics and keep it simple. Thank God for this gorgeous and smart angel!
Did anything help please?
How's your skin now?
I’m so lucky to find this video on time. I thought I had fungal acne and about to use that shampoo on my skin. Thanks a lot.
Very very thorough video! I love how you really seem to know your stuff and you're giving every angle of information we need to know- from how to identify it, to treatment and even prevention. I gotta say I haven't seen nearly that many channels go as in-depth, you've gained a new subscriber :)
This is a bit random but can we take a moment to appreciate the whole vibe in this vid, you sound so sweet and i feel happy watching videos like this :)
I’m a skin care junkie and I’ve almost tried all the brands out there promising to clear acne or breakouts. Little did I know, I wasn’t aware of the ingredients that I’m intoducing into my skin, plus I don’t do a patch test and/or rest my skin for a week or two before applying a new product. I was like, “okay it didn’t work for me then I have to try another one.” Those were my mistakes. I also realized that over exfoliation can damage the skin barrier, hence you will end up having a problematic skin. I did a lot of research too and those skin care tips that you’ve shared are absolutely true. I love your videos because they’re very helpful and informative. I love the way you talk, and oh my gosh, I love your voice! Thanks for sharing your expertise.♥️♥️♥️
Ok so coming back after a month after following your advice Lemme just say you are an angel sent from heaven 🥺 . I had severe purging from vitamin c and when the comedonal acne appeared every source I searched for said it was fungal acne .I swear I was going to get anti fungal treatment . Your video appeared just in time to save me My skin is finally clearing up now Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️❤️ 😭
Lots of great information! I love that you touched on all topics and causes for this type of acne, such as dehydrated skin, diet, etc.

Moisturiser was making my skin dull and oily so i stopped it and started using sunscreen instead. My skin is brighter and almost balanced in oil production.

i was told by my dermetoligist its fungal acne all right...... but nothing has helped it or if it did it was temporary. you explaining the CCS made me excited bc that is what have and it goes with what you said! thanks,
Oh my gosh, I was about to get nizoral because I thought I had fungal acne but they were out of stock. Then I stumbled upon this. Thank you so much!!!
I’m too poor and too self critical to see a dermatologist that’s why I’m here.
All of those years i was searching for these research,i am a big sufferer 😭 Tysm❤
The way I literally have these I mean I went to the dermatologist and I’m on treatment for them and they’re getting better but the fact that KZhead knows that this has been my main problem with acne for the past three years is so refreshing I’m still gonna watch this video
So helpful. I was also afraid that I had fungal acne, so I used Nizoral for 4 weeks with no reults... other than a totally nuked moisture barrier! My skin was so sensitive and dry... now I know that I have closed comedones and am trying to find a solution that works for me.
I'm facing the same problem, just used Ketoconazole instead of Nizoral😅 Has it cleared up now for you?
Hey, loved the video. Just a small suggestion though - Maybe turn the volume of the background music down a little bit. I have a ear infection at the moment so I found it very hard to hear what you were saying against the loud music. This could also be an issue for people with hearing difficulties.
Thanks for letting me know (and for bearing through it)! I have turned it down in my most recent video and will continue to do so from now on !
Really like these videos!! Information is conveyed in a clear and concise manner, also the music playing while talking is so distracting for someone like me
Thank you! You helped me figure out these are closed comedones and makes sense 💖 Appreciate all the advice
This is a Godsend 😭❤️❤️❤️❤️ thank youuuuu
Wow I cannot THANK YOU enough for this video! So informative (I had no idea what CC's were until this video)...all this time I've been re-thinking my skincare routine and disregarding ANYTHING that has a slight fungal acne trigger (which is nearly everything and so stressing)...and from this video I have learnt that I do not have fungal acne - just skin that is in need of some serious (gentle) exfoliation and TLC ^v^ Thank you so much. Now I can go buy those lovely products! I hope you take care, stay safe and have a lovely day : )
I’m so grateful i was able to discover your channel 🥺 your vlogs have been informative and easy to understand. I learned a lot from your vlogs and it gives me assurance that my acne journey will be in good hands and I can surpass it. 😭 Thank you so much ❤️
Hi Cathy, thank you so much for this, i've been struggling with this for months and thought I had fungal acne. I was curious if you would recommend using an oil-based retinol as well as a lactic acid on closed comedones?
I think this video just changed my life 🤯 so thatttsss what I’ve been having all my life
Thank you so much!!!! I've been having tiny bumps on my chin for a few years now, and now i know how to get rid of them!
There's definitely a reason to why I came across this video on KZhead kzhead.info/sun/rc-rgKuFgp-Cgmg/bejne.html of Jyovis Ayurveda and I was very happy to see the results for various skin infections. I even followed few of the tips explained and it actually worked. Then I finally decided to contact on ...... (+917208189103) to cure my skin infection from the root cause. The team really helped me a lot. Thank you Jyovis!
Girl, you honestly saved my life. ❤
The real barbie right here ! Video was so informative, thankyou❤
you are amazing!!!!!!!! I was wondering for a while if its fungal acne but now im sure its ccs.thank you sooo much.please do skincare videos for teens
This is really helpful to many folks, like myself, since we are just very uncertain 'bout why we get so many dudes in our faces and which products could be handy to treat them, or even minimize getting them. Thanks a lot ^^
This woman saved my life. I always thought it was fungal acne.
i understand she is a skincare youtuber but her skin is literally amazing
Highly informative video, now I know why my products for recurring fungal acne were not working...since they were actually CCs 👍
Thank you for making this video, it helps a lot! I got a little frustrated with tiny bumps on my forehead and been thinking about buying that one anti-dandruff shampoo, but thankfully i haven't because now i think they more likely are CCs than fungal acne so thank you!!! Love how you explain everything and your voice is so pleasant to listen to. Definitely a new fan here!!
