Welcome to Kevin's English Room Podcast.
Hello.
Hey guys.
Hello.
How's it going?
Feel a little bit dry in here.
A little bit.
True, yes.
Yeah.
Let me change the AC.
From the first recording that we did in thisstudio, you said that too, right?
Oh yeah, I think I said that.
Yeah, you said your throat is like being dried.
Right.
True.
Yeah.
My face feels dry right now.
Okay.
Is that how you feel, the humidity?
Yeah.
Don't you feel that sometimes, like your facefeels a little bit like buttered?
Not really.
You've never had that feeling?
Yeah.
Okay.
Throat, I understand.
Your face though?
Not.
My face.
Okay.
All right.
I'm probably doing too much skincare.
That's why.
And now your like nerves are like on surface andthose things.
Yeah.
It's like being kind.
Yeah.
How's your skin condition, by the way?
Oh man, not well, man.
Not well.
Not fucking well.
God damn it.
I'm fine, man.
I'm fine.
So the Avoclear thing?
Yes.
Remember Avoclear?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You destroy all the...
Hishizen, is that right?
That's right.
Yeah.
That's right.
So that, I think that's been working a little bit.
Okay.
I think that's been working.
But the thing is, you can't do Avoclear.
You can't do Avoclear on your neck.
Okay.
Okay.
So like, yeah.
Other than my...
It's like my face, I don't have that much acneright now.
But like around the neck area, yeah, I got alittle bit of an outbreak.
So like I'm dealing with the neck, neck acnetonight.
And that's the place you can...
That's the area you can not do that.
I can't do it yet.
I can't do Avoclear.
Okay.
It's like shit.
So you have to think of...
I have to think of a different approach.
Yeah.
God.
I see.
But it's working, right?
Then the Avoclear.
Yeah, I think Avoclear is working.
Good.
No?
No.
I got to fix the whole problem.
Okay.
Okay.
Yeah.
No, it's like, it's like I...
It's like a...
You know, it's like, you know, you get all thedust.
Yeah.
I just, I just collect it all in one place.
That's it.
I need, I need that place to be clear.
You can't just move your temples to one location.
I got to clear it.
I got to clear everything out.
I see.
I see.
Yeah.
So...
Okay.
It's a good example.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I see.
So you, you feel like you, you have the dust alllike here and there.
Yes.
And it's all collected in like the lower part.
Okay.
I kind of like it.
Is that how it works?
03:02
In...
Probably not.
But like, that's how it feels though.
Okay.
Yeah.
Okay.
Do you have any solutions for that?
So, one solution is, um, kose busutsu.
Huh?
Kose busutsu.
You mean...
You take pills.
Pills?
Kose busutsu.
Okay.
Called the Vibramycine.
Huh?
Vibramycine is the name of the...
Oh, okay.
It's a...
That gets rid of the acne.
Oh.
But you can't drink them too long.
Okay.
Like you gotta end it within like one or twoweeks.
I see.
And you can't, you can't do on and off and on andoff.
Oh.
Because you're gonna get taisei qing.
I see.
So, that's only like if it really breaks out.
Huh.
Then you go for like the...
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
Hmm.
But other than that, I don't...
Yeah.
You don't have like a different laser things?
There are different lasers.
Yes, I can do different lasers.
But yeah, I guess I can do that.
Uh-huh.
But none of them is as effective as Avoclear.
Oh, okay.
Yeah, Avoclear is like...
The strongest?
I think the...
Yeah, the best solution I guess for acne.
Okay.
Yeah.
I see.
I gotta think of something.
Wow.
I gotta think of something there.
I see.
Yeah.
The joint is still...
Still...
Damn it.
Okay.
God damn it.
It's really tiring.
Is it?
It is really like devastating.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
It's not enjoyable anymore?
Dude, it is not.
Yeah, it's frustrating.
Like it's enjoyable when you're climbing and itfeels like you're stepping up.
Yeah, yeah.
But like when you're in that phase where it'slike, you know, when you're going down.
Uh-huh.
Oh, man.
It's like, my God.
I've put so much effort into this.
So much energy.
Uh-huh.
So much money.
So much like knowledge.
Uh-huh.
And so much time learning.
Yeah.
And this is the result.
Fuck.
Come on.
God damn.
That's the feeling you get.
Wow.
Yeah.
You're really fighting against it.
Oh, man.
You're really into it.
I'm really into it.
I'm really into it.
Good, good.
You're living your life.
Well, yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, sure.
Yeah, it's nice.
Yeah, it's frustrating though.
I see.
Yeah.
Right.
And honestly, when you look back, when I look backat the photos from like five years
ago.
Yeah.
I think I have a better skin.
I think I do.
I don't know why this is happening.
Okay.
I don't know why this is happening.
Is that?
So why did you, first of all, why did you startall those like journeys?
Did you think your skin wasn't clean?
Yeah.
The reason I started is, um, when I was finding,um, looking for a new partner, I started doing
06:06
the dating app, right?
That's when I was like, okay, I should level upmy, myself.
I was like, let's start with skincare.
I'm not doing that much skincare and have a littlebit of acne.
So I got to take care of that too.
That's how the skincare acne journey started.
And that's continuing.
It's like, I, that journey started, but I haven'tgotten to a place where I'm satisfied.
So like, even though I did find a partner, I'mmarried, I'm like, huh, I want to complete
this journey.
Yeah.
And that's how it's continuing.
Okay.
Yeah.
And then now you look back to five years ago andthen you, it's like, wait, I don't have
that much acne on my skin, why is this happening?
That's strange.
Because five years ago, I'm sure your diet wastotally different than you're doing right
now.
It was fucked up.
Yeah.
And obviously that affects it to your skin.
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
And that's strange.
That's strange.
Yeah.
That's strange.
Maybe, what's the reason?
Maybe the youth power?
Age power, maybe?
Possibly.
My thesis is that because there's, I use a lot oflike, powerful actives.
Actives?
So, for example, like sebum, powerful sebum.
Oh, I see.
For example, there's this thing called retinol.
Okay.
Retinol irritates your skin.
Okay.
It gets itchy.
It gets red.
It gets ugh.
Okay.
But many people go through that.
After that, it goes through a phase where it'sbetter than before.
Okay.
Those are like the seme.
I see.
Those are like the offensive actives.
Wow.
Okay.
And then things like, yeah, there's many of thoselike retinol or like vitamin C. That's
an offensive active as well.
Oh, really?
So, I thought it was just a good vitamin C.
Vitamin C?
Like a pill that you take.
Right.
If you use like good vitamin C, like activevitamin Cs, that can be irritating as well.
Oh, really?
That's seme.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
Or like the nikibi chiryo no kusuri, that'sbasically vitamin A as well.
Oh, sorry.
That's like, that's similar to retinol.
Okay.
Retinol is vitamin A.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
The nikibi chiryo yaku is vitamin A as well.
So, that's also seme.
It damage?
It doesn't damage your skin.
It just, it irritates your skin.
That's all.
Okay.
Yeah.
Your skin gets a little bit sensitive.
Because of that, because of that, my skin is moreprone to like these like, you know,
bacterias and acne, bacterias and that's why maybeI'm more prone to getting more acne
09:03
is my theory.
Because, because other places, like my, righthere, around my, I don't know what you call
this area, but like below my eyes, the skintexture, skin quality has gone very, it's
good.
Oh, is it?
Yeah, it's gotten much better.
Okay.
But like the lower part, my faceline area, that'sgone like a little bit acne-ish.
Ah.
So.
I see.
Yeah.
The central part of my face, it's gotten better, alot better.
Yeah.
Ah, I see.
Yeah.
But you, you need to, you need to step forward,right?
I gotta, yeah, I mean, I gotta keep, keep movingforward.
Yeah.
I gotta keep moving forward, man.
I gotta do.
Right.
Yeah.
Right.
Yeah.
But I'm almost out.
I'm almost out of ammo.
Okay.
I am almost out of ammo.
Oh.
Yeah.
Ammo?
What's that?
Ammo.
It's like, my steps.
Oh, okay.
Shudan.
I'm almost out of shudan.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
My next move.
I see.
Yeah.
Why you can't do the epic layer to your neck, toyour chin?
They said there's something in the neck that,that's not, that's dangerous when you do the
shit.
That's what they said.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So.
I just.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I see.
Yeah.
Now the face, you just keep it without getting anyresult and just keep it, keep it, keep
it, and just one day you'll get it, maybe.
Hopefully.
Yeah, hopefully.
But yeah.
I'll think of something probably.
Yeah.
I'll probably think of something.
Yeah.
All right.
So.
Yeah.
I'll keep you all updated on the journey.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
All right.
Thanks for listening, guys.
Thank you.
Bye-bye.
Bye-bye.
