ケビンのスキンケアへの取り組み
Welcome to Kevin's English Room Podcast.
Today, I want to talk about skin care.
Did you know that I am very much into skin care?
Yeah, I know it.
Oh, I didn't know that you knew.
Yeah, because a few years ago, you started, I don't know.
Well, first of all, that's more. That's one of that.
I don't know. I remember suddenly you talked about some like a cosmetic product one day.
Oh, did I do that?
Yeah, like some kind of, I don't know. I don't know the name, but.
Okay.
And also like you do the sunscreens.
Oh, yeah.
It's like it's very, oh, he's into like those.
Yeah.
Because I knew you very much turned, when we were college students, you were the townish guy.
The darkest skin.
In the university, right?
Yeah.
Not very good for the skin. I gotta say.
So, yeah, I kind of noticed that you're into like.
Yeah, this began when I started doing dating apps.
Okay.
Yeah.
Ultimately, I met my wife there.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
That's where, yeah.
There was this timing where I started doing dating app.
And, you know, I think that's when a lot of people start to, you know, sort of try to upgrade their looks.
Oh, I see.
That's how I got into the world of skincare.
And now it's very interesting.
I love looking at the skincare products I do.
I love looking at these like, oh, what's inside the skincare?
What kind of like, what kind of like, sebum is in it?
アクネに関する苦悩
Wow.
It's like, you know how I love, I also love like KakaoChan, I love gadgets.
Yeah.
What I love about gadgets is like, in this device, what can it do?
Like what kind of elements are in the device?
What kind of like, you know, features are like fucking in a certain.
It's very interesting how they can manage to do all that.
Oh, I see.
You're not interested in gadgets, but like if you are into gadgets, I feel like you can resonate with the skincare world as well.
Wow.
It is similar for you.
Yes.
It shares the same interest.
Yeah, it kind of like, it shares the same kind of like niche.
Wow.
Shares the same sort of like,
Oh, I didn't know that.
Interestingness to it.
Uh-huh.
So I'm into it.
Okay.
I'm on a journey to become, to have like a very beautiful face.
Okay.
Like a beautiful skin.
Skin, okay.
But the more I educate myself and the more I learn about it, I feel like I'm getting further away from it.
Okay.
Yeah.
Is it like, you're talking about the results or?
Yeah, the results.
Oh.
So I'm here to like share my struggle.
Okay.
Of like, of my skincare journey here.
Okay, okay.
I've been getting these like, around the face line, I've been getting like right here, I have a zit right here.
And I have another zit right here.
Zit?
Acne?
Yeah, acne.
Yeah, same thing.
Zit.
Zit, okay.
Nicki B.
Right?
Yeah.
I've been getting them, like it doesn't stop.
Huh.
So I want to ask you, how often do you get acne zits?
And where?
I don't know.
Once a month?
I don't, I mean, first of all, I don't even.
It doesn't even come across your mind if you even have it?
Yeah, like, well, if I have acne, well, I see a mirror every day, so I know it.
Oh, I got acne.
But that's not a good thing.
But I don't, honestly, I don't remember like how often do I get those or like how.
Right, right.
It doesn't even, like, it doesn't even bother you.
That's why you don't even, you don't even keep track of it.
Yeah.
Oh, I mean, I'm not into, like, I'm not that careful as you are, so.
Okay, I see.
Yeah.
ニキビとの戦い
But when I, so when I shave my hige, and I remember I have like small acne a few days ago here.
Okay.
I was like, yeah, should I shave my hige because I have acne here in this, and that's what I remember.
Sure, okay.
So a few days ago, yes.
A few days ago.
Yeah.
And so, like, how often?
I don't know.
Honestly, I don't know.
Once a month, I guess?
Once a month or so.
Yeah.
I'm jealous, man.
I'm jealous.
How often do you get those?
So, several months ago, I've always had one or two.
Okay.
Okay.
Always.
Like, one pimple goes away, next day, another one pops out.
Wow.
That, it's like, you know, a pimple stays there for like two or three days, maybe even four.
That sort of like, it cycles around my whole area.
Wow.
Right?
And I've...
That was a few months ago, right?
Yeah, that was a few months ago, right?
And I've educated myself even harder.
Okay.
And after that, it's gotten a lot peaceful.
Okay.
It's gotten a lot peaceful, yes.
Nice.
And I was like, yes!
Yeah.
Finally.
But then comes another pimple, right?
One, two, three.
And then it's like, it's so devastating, you know?
Like, when the fuck is this cycle gonna fucking end?
And especially, you're trying hard to keep your skin clean and that happens.
And like, why is it kind of...
Do you know the reason?
Like, why...
After doing a lot of research, the pimples you get around the face line come from hormone balance.
Okay.
So...
But I'm not...
I don't know.
I'm not doing anything to fuck up my hormone balance.
Yeah.
Honestly, I don't know.
The only thing I can think of is I'm drinking a lot of soy milk.
But that's it though.
And maybe stress, you know?
Yeah.
From the...
You know, after I went through...
I just went through a huge surgery.
Yeah.
It must be.
And I'm still fighting against my, you know, my syndrome.
Yeah.
So...
That must be.
That.
One reason.
But...
Yeah.
Yeah.
Or maybe you're trying too healthy.
So that's kind of my jinx here, you know?
I've always...
I have this really weird theory that every time I try to be healthier, I get unhealthy.
When I try to be stronger, I get weaker.
So maybe that's the same thing happening with my skin right now.
The more I try, the weaker my skin gets.
It's like fucking crazy though.
But that's a strange thing because you researched well and you know what's good for your skin.
Yeah.
You know your skin and...
Yeah.
And you're doing it, right?
I know, right?
Yeah, I'm doing it.
I know.
You...
Or maybe you're eating too healthy.
Like it changed something inside you.
Oh, right.
Right?
My body hasn't adjusted to the...
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I feel like I've gone a long way.
Okay.
That my body is...
Oh.
You know, long way enough that my body has adjusted already, you know?
I see.
I see.
So when does that started?
When did that start?
Like the skin acne things?
The acne shit?
You know, it's my whole life, man.
My whole life.
Oh, okay.
I've always had acne here and there.
Okay.
But it's never that like too visible.
Oh.
It was around like the face line or like the bottom of the face line.
Yeah.
It's not too much.
Like the one where you can see a lot, like...
Yeah.
It's not that bad.
Okay.
Yeah.
What's the general reason of pimples?
So the general reason of the pimples is your skin produces oil.
アクネとの戦い
Yes.
That oil goes into your pore.
Yeah.
Kehana.
And then that attracts a lot of the acne.
Okay.
And then it's...
That's the first stage of the acne.
Okay.
Yeah.
Okay.
So...
So you want to keep less of the acne, and you want to control your oil.
So you're producing too much amount of oil?
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's one of the reasons.
Okay.
And I'm using skincare products that doesn't produce oil.
Okay.
And I've done a good job controlling my oil.
And I'm also using a medicine that I got from the...
I don't know.
Hifuka.
Okay.
To kill the acne.
It does.
To kill the acne.
Oh.
And still got.
Yeah.
I'm still getting.
That's...
Yeah.
It's a long journey.
新しい目標の設定
Yeah.
But your skin doesn't look bad.
Yeah.
Thank you.
Yeah.

I'm planning to be very good.
Oh, I see.
I'm planning to get very well soon.
Okay.
I'm on the journey.
I see.
I'm on the journey.
The amount you're trying is way higher than your current condition.
Yes.
Yes.
I see.

So I'm going to set it straight right here.
Okay.
Okay.
Next year.
Next year.
I'm going to...
My skin is going to look so much better.
Oh, nice.
I'm going to set it.
I'm going to set the goal right now.

Well, yours isn't bad from the beginning.
Thank you.
Thank you.
But it has to be excellent.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
I need an excellent...
Yeah.
Okay.
Of course.
Yeah.
Right?
Yeah.
Do you go to Datsumo or not anymore?
I do go to Datsumo.
You still go?
I still go to Datsumo.
I think that's...
Isn't it the reason...
It's like you're lighting very strong lights or things like that, right?
Well, it's only once every nine weeks.
True.
Then it's not that bad?
It's not that bad.
It's not damaging your skin or something like that?
Well, it does damage your skin.
Oh.
But...
But it recovers?
Yeah.
I mean, it's not turning red or anything.
Okay.
Yeah.
So, yeah.
I'm going to be aggressive with my skin care more than ever before.
Okay.
Okay.
So...
Okay.
The journey starts...
The aggressive journey starts today.
Good.
And that is going to be your New Year's Reservation?
Yes.
2026.
Let me just quickly tell you...
Okay.
My plans of how that's going to happen, okay?
All right. All right. All right.
I'm going to control my acne...
Okay.
Using the medicine I got from the doctors.
I see.
And I'm going to stop the acne from happening.
Okay.
After that, I'm going to do laser treatment.
Okay.
You know what that is?
Yeah, I kind of...
You know what it is, right?
Yeah.
There's a lot of spots right here.
Yeah.
That's going to get rid of the...
Kill them.
Yeah, it's going to get rid of all that fuck.
Okay.
Then...
Then, okay.
I'm going to use a stronger skincare, for example.
What do you mean?
Don't use stronger things.
Don't use something strong.
But I want to, though.
Okay.
But I want to.
Okay.
Okay.
Don't hurt yourself.
I'm not going to hurt myself, but...
Don't use, like, stronger...
Fuck.
I feel like you're getting into, like, stronger...
Fighting stronger enemies and, like, you're...
You're doing...
Yeah.
Okay. Okay.
But you're going to try that?
