Dr Dray's videos are the best. Why? Because we basically get a consultation with a board certified dermatologist every day...for free!
I’ve been a Sub of hers since she was below 200,000 and I have thought that since day 1. Her channel is a great resource and full of information. 🤩
@@candyce6233 same. My interest dipped a bit when she fell into the usual influencer marketing strats but in the end, she is one of the best , evidence based dermatologists.
Compared to other medfluencers who try too hard, she's a gem.
With all the noise in marketing, we need someone like Dr Dray to save or skin and our wallets 😭❣️
:)
I wish I found her a few years ago myself when I was just buying anything marketed towards men and over picking over exfoliating
Sunscreen and subscribe lol
Lol I was about to open my wallet but after this video closed it 😂
exactly!
Hate that im an esthetician and that in my school they told us essential oils, expensive products, and excessive amount of steps in a routine was good for the skin. Dr dray u really taught me a lot, i was spending stupid amounts of money in skincare that was not bringing me any benefits. Thanks for all the vids!
Some people do seem to have skincare routines that look like they'd take 45 minutes and about 20 products. Essential oils I find rather irritating to the skin. Nice to put on a pillowcase or something, just not on my skin
Hahaha your school sounds like Aveda, was it?
My school told me the exact opposite with essential oils!! They always told me that they are sensitiving and to irritating for your skin...
@@sarabayfromParis Dr. Gross also likes to sell his products…….for a big price. Look at the ingredients of his acne gel, which costs $40. No “miracle” ingredients and alcohol is ingredient #2!!!
IS ALL IN THE MARKETING…..he is a Doctor, so it must be good…..lol.
Wqu
Coming from a girl that was previously following all of the fads & influencer skincare routines - I can’t wait to share all of my knowledge with my future kids struggling with teenage skin. I just hope Dr.Dray is still around UA-cam to back me up by then 😅
not only will she be there, she'll look the same age! !!!
I can’t wait when I run into someone from high school years from now and see I look at same so I can just unload all this information on them lol
oooo im glad to be using a lot of them already. from my experience the simpler my skincare got, the better my skin got! minimalism truly works!!
thanks for watching
@@DrDrayzday your beautiful
same
Can anyone recommend good vitamins and probiotics for itchy n bumpy skin??😧😧😧help please
Same! I went far too hard trying new products in the beginning. I've whittled it down to a cleanser, 1-2 actives, and quality moisturizer.
It's true...less is more (but let's face it, we love to play with new products out of boredom)
Read or listen to music
Also age plays a vital role on skim care routine
True lol
1.27 million subs?! That must’ve jumped up fast! Congrats Dr Dray, it’s awesome to know that so many people are listening to a dermatologist, and hopefully using sunscreen daily! 🧴☀️ I was here when you were around 20k. You deserve a big audience and I’m so happy for you! Have a wonderful day ☺️✨
My mother is 83 years old and has such beautiful skin that women ask her all the time what products she used. Her answer, Jergens body lotion..the old school kind.
I love that, old school did work! Yes
I wish I could use this but body lotion would give me giant cystic pimples. 😮🤦♀️ My mom, on the other hand, uses this on the face. If only my skin was not so sensitive.
Oh and the SMELL walks me down memory lane! ❤️❤️❤️
I use Jergens too and it works really well for my body. I don't use it on my face because i have eczema and very very sensitive. My body skin is very firm and beautiful at 60 years old.
I hate that Jergens smell, but I love it on my feet
I always feel guilty for using a moisturizer after shaving my beard because i don't want to spend my money to buy an aftershave cream lol. I've never even tried to search for a good aftershave product. Turns out, i wasn't wrong this whole time lol.
I use hair conditioner or sometimes even cleansing balm to shave my legs. Much better than shaving gel.
I’ve always heard that moisturizing after any hair removal is critical! My skin is a little irritated then and needs to be calmed down and rehydrated.
@@xqueenfrostine I’ve always used that too!🙏🏻
Don't feel guilty! Whatever works, works :)
Oh my goodness me too
I love this video! As an Esthetician, we CONSTANTLY get told “medical grade” skin care is better. Clients do come in for the luxury of it, but it’s honestly no different.
I think 10-20 years ago medical grade products used to have some interesting molecules, or in higher concentration. But with brands such as TO and the popularity of Asian skincare a lot of actives are now available in easily available products. Although for deep care, the high concentration peels, and of course the luxury feel I'd go to an esthetician.
Thank you for sharing.
There is no such thing. "Medical grade skincare doesn't exist....
@@ceciliabonevardi6803 That's not true.
@@HansensUniverseT-A... The doctor said in the video it's just a marketing term and don't fall for it.
I like how Dr. Dray just ends all the influencers that push medical grade skincare.
Yes!!! Let's stop holding estheticians at a dermatologist level
@@Megan6772 estheticians and untrained and PAID sponsored salespeople posing as experts, cough cough Hyram, cough
@@theywalkinguptoyouand4060 hyram prefaces most of his content with saying he’s not a derm or expert. He is very knowledgeable but I never get the sense he’s attempting to pass himself as a medic.
Amen
When I worked at a beauty supply shop I never cared much for Dermalogica and surprisingly neither did aestheticians/dermatologists who would come in. Their biggest gripe with it (Other than the ridiculous cost) was that a lot of their products contain essential oil, plant extracts or fragrances and that it just isn't what it used to be back when it was first founded. Interesting to hear that straight from aesthetician and dermatologists and what a relief that good, reliable skin care is often much easier and cheaper for all of us 💙
The lip sunscreen to be used around the eyes is a great tip. 💛
Yes. Hope it works 😀
Greetings Veronika Jelenc hope u r well n Happy Monday😀👍💜....
👍
@@whitneybrown4067 thank you. Happy Monday to you too 😀😀
@@VeronikaJelencsrecnozivljenje a lot easier to reapply on that area compared to sunscreen. 👍🏼
I honestly don't know how you manage to come up with a different topic everyday. Really appreciate all the work you put into your videos. You are one generous lady!! Thanks, Dr Dray. Enjoyed the video. Happy Monday! I hope you have a tranquil evening. 💙
A great way of sharing and giving back her skills and talents.
When I had a lot of peeling from tret, I would use a cleansing oil instead of a balm as a first step cleanse. It worked well for dislodging some of the peeling skin without irritating the “new” skin underneath. Great list Dr. Dray. Thanks.
How you come up with videos daily, I’ll never know…but you do and it’s always something we can learn from!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and all of your hard work 💜
Glad to know that I wasn't crazy for using my nivea body lotion on my face
Thank you for all your budget and simplistic recommendations! I have been having bad flare ups of my rosacea and hormonal acne and everything has been stinging and burning but when I followed your anti redness routine my skin has healed up a lot! And the prosacea gel has been the only thing to tone down the redness in my nose and helps my jaw line acne that keeps popping up! Thanks so much dr. Dray! Your the best!
I love you Dr. Dray! You saved my skin and my wallet! You stopped me from spending over a 100$ on overhyped products. I now have a 30$ routine with a gentle cleanser, fragrance-free moisturizer, and mineral sunscreen. I cannot thank you enough!
You’ve just saved the skin around my eyes with that lip spf trick, thank you so much. My eyes are so sensitive to sunscreen, but the lip spf worked perfectly :-)
My mother, father, and grandparents had skin cancer. One had to have her eyelid surgery, her eyeball removed, then, what was left, sewn shut. 😵 I loved hearing your suggestion at 2:52. Also, I appreciated, in another video, your reminder about additional steps for protecting against too much sun exposure: wearing hats, sunglasses, etc. 🥰
That is horrifying. Definitely paying more attention around my eye area now
I've learned so much in this video. Thank you for sharing the these gems in times where we are constantly bombarded by skincare options
So happy to hear her tip 1. I’ve been thinking about switching to a face moisture but my body moisture has made a massive difference to my face and works with my other face products. I’m loving these tips.
Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!!! For all the tips, especially on the lip suncreen for the eyes, because I was SO ready to give up on suncreen altogether. I tear up so bad it looks like I'm crying.
Hi Dr. Dray. Let me start by saying I watch you all the time, and I'm grateful you started this channel for us. I'm having a major problem with my skincare routine. IT ISN'T DOING MUCH, AND IT'S BEEN 3 MONTHS SINCE I STARTED A DEDICATED SKINCARE ROUTINE. I am 42, and people think I'm in my late 20's, but the problems I DO have are not improving. HELP ME PLEASE!!!
Thank you Dr. Dray! You are so incredibly interesting and kindhearted to share your knowledge of skin care with us! I watch your videos and always come away with so much in-depth and valuable information to help myself (and I share with friends). Btw: this is another original and noteworthy video. You’re the best!!!💕⭐️😊⭐️💕
I keep coming back for this series by Dr Dray :) Please NEVER STOP THIS!
Dr. Dray, I so appreciate your videos. I am an RN, and I always defer to dermatologist recommendations, as it can get a little confusing seeing all of the content/suggestions out there. Thank you for all you do!
This video helped me a lot. I've always been apprehensive about putting moisturizer on my face after shaving. I guess it just seemed like a potentially problematic thing to do, but after watching this video, I've really been slathering it on after shaving, and the benefits have been tremendous. Such an obvious solution totally evaded me for years and years. I could kick myself, but at least my face is looking and feeling better than ever.
Thank you as always for the precious suggestions. I used sun lipsticks around eyes too, because regular sunscreens always make me cry. I've noticed aesthetic doctors and dermatologists have often different opinions on the same topic. That's interesting.
I have very sensitive eyes and most sunscreens have been a challenge. I also live in Atlanta and a major part of my daily work outs involve being outdoors. Your vanicream lip spf recommendation is the only solution that has worked for me. Thank you, Dr. Dray!!!!
I want to thank you for helping me break out of the consumer mindset and helping me select products that actually help my skin, especially without an office visit. My acne and eczema have never been better.
I was today years old when I learned my eyelids needed sunscreen, thanks Dr. Dray!
I'm really happy with the suggestion to use Vanicream lip balm on the eyes. I could not put anything on my eyelids with them feeling irritated and tearing all day. They don't complain at all with the Vanicream and my eyes are moisturized as well. Thank you!
Can't wait to try this!!
The sunscreen I'm currently using (the neutrogena clear skin spf 50 sunscreen) makes my eyes super sensitive and teary throughout the day too. Im wandering if lipbalm with spf in it doesn't make your eyelids feel sticky?
Same
@@madison9812 Depends on your skin. Just don't use much.
One thing I’ve changed is spraying my clothes with parfum/aftershave, instead of the actual skin.
Same same, but different
Same
My parents always told me to use Perfume on clothes instead of skin, after watching Dr Dray, I got to know why and I'm grateful for my parents and Dr Dray
@@enakshi8729 spot on advice! Good on ya!
Yep
Same here 🤗
Dr. Dray,
I cant thank you enough for everything you do for us. Your education about products has genuinely improved the quality of my life many times over. My skin health and self esteem wouldnt be what they are today without all of the expertise you have shared. Im sure I am one of millions of people whom you have done this for. You make Houston feel more like home with your warmth and kindness. Sending you so much love! =)
I am all for simple and to the point skincare! Thanks for the tips Dr Dray! 🙌🏻
I use a moisturizer from CeraVe on my face, even though it is meant for body + face. I actually upgraded it to a face only product, because my body doesn't need much moisturizing! I use one from Neutrogena for the body
I love the theme of this video! Cheaper and just as effective is what we love! 🙌
Yessss the neosporin thing I learned after learning about wound care in school!
Thanks, Dr. Dray for helping me save money. I feel pressure to buy the pricey stuff, but with your suggestions, I feel a lot more confident about my choices.
Appreciate your sound advice. I know you don’t advocate spray sunscreen because it doesn’t keep you from having to rub it in… but would still love you to do a video commenting on the J&J recall of 5 aerosol sunscreen products this week.
The lip balm tip has been a game changer! I have sensitive eyes and can use chemical sunscreen without issues!! Thanks Dr. Dray!
Dr. Dray is the content QUEEN! Thank you so much for all these amazing videos
I am 44 years and I would never ditch my vitamin c serum. I suffer from hyperpigmentation, sunspots ect . I have tried every vitamin c serum out there and wasn’t until I tried the OBAGI vitamin c serum that I saw results. I use the 20% and Apply only in morning. I follow up with a peptide cream and my sunscreen as usual. It’s faded my hyperpigmentation and and even reduced fine lines. Wish it wasn’t so expensive, but a little goes a long way. I keep it in its box in a dark cupboard, but I will say I have got 10 months out of one bottle.
I’ve been using my body lotion (vanicream in the tub) as a facial moisturizer for years now. I have eczema and i figured since it’s so non-irritating and soothing, I could use it on my face too. It’s great and cost effective. I usually put it on while my face is still damp and locks the moisture in!
As a certified wound care clinician, I don't think petrolatum is the best first line defense in minor skin abrasions/lacerations. The first sequence in wound healing is hemostasis. This is needed to stop the wound from bleeding and allow the wound to proceed through the next 3 phases of healing. If petrolatum is applied before hemostasis is achieved, this can slow down the healing process even in minor skin injuries. After hemostasis is complete, petrolatum can certainly help protect the skin. Additionally, people tend to double dip into their petrolatum containers which can lead to introducing bacteria into even the smallest of cuts.
Digression : But I also recommend using a leave on anti-dandruff product. Has saved my life (to be a bit dramatic) while trying not to wash out my hair color faster than necessary. There are fragrance free ones. Relives itch and actually help clean the scalp a bit, unlike dry shampoo.
@@barbieblue3336 It's just why I bought them. But I would recommend them to people who don't too. The only one I use that I know is sort of available outside of the Nordic countries, if you order online, is from a brand called SIM Sensitive. It's a fantastic brand though. I also know that The Inkey list (a brand I personally don't like, but everyone else does) has a salisylic acid scalp serum. Philip Kingsley has one that should be available internationally that's almost fragrance free ?) as far as I can remember. With pircono lactone or however you spell it 😂But just look around the internet and local pharmacy/ drug store! Salisylic acid serums for the face, can also be used on the scalp in my experience.
Dr Dray, I love how you just quiet the noise around skin care. Suggesting a zinc shampoo when you have seborrheic dermatitis on your face - excellent! My son has it all under his beard. Ithink I'll get him to try it.
Which zinc shampoo has he had success with?
@@sweetreat30 I'm not sure about my son. I use any shampoo that has 2% zinc. The other ingredients help itching etc.
Head and Shoulders now have a line of shampoo and conditioner that's formulated for color treated hair. Yay!!
I have no dandruff or reason to use it; my partner does so it's in the shower. It immediately solved his (years long!) scalp issues and it gives my hair great bounce and body once a week. Who knew!
Love your content DrDray. Anytime I have a skin concern I search your channel for answers and I'm always met with some great advice. Peace
Thanks for your honest information and approach to skincare! Life period! Not to fall for the hype of anything, it’s best to do the research! The bottom line of expensive is to put profit in someone else’s pockets! I need my money in my pockets 👍🏽💯
I don’t always think simple is better, but overtime I’ve realized that with skincare simple is key. It’s easier to keep up with the routine and if something ever breaks you out you know exactly what it is bc you have such few products
I discovered the first tip by accident when I ran out of face moisturiser and started using my la Roche posay body moisturiser instead as it was fragrance and alcohol free, it worked so well on my face 🔥
Definitely going to try the lip SPF for the eyes! My eyes always burn when I put sunscreen around them. Thank you so much Dr Dray for the suggestion! Love your content 🥰
This was great. So much good information that I haven’t heard anywhere else. I’ve been using DHT blockers , but will definitely be swapping out, and I’ll definitely try out your suggestion for deodorant .
I tried using body lotion on my face when I had contact dermatitis. Cerave, Eucerin, Vaseline, etc. The rich lotions worked well to clear up irritation, but it caused cystic acne. I only used the lotions on my face for maybe two weeks, but I was dealing with cysts and closed comedones for at least 3 months afterwards. I will never try it again.
Same here, I used Cerave body lotion on my face for a good couple weeks and my skin got so congested. I did nothing else different.
Same here. I have rosacea and it helps to calm flare ups, however I also have acne and always break out after using them. I really, really wish I could but I'm just too acne prone
Omg thanks for telling me , I’m not even Gonna try it
The same thing happens to me when I use CeraVe from the tub on my face only. But when I use the fragrance free Aveeno eczema daily moisturizer or cream I don’t break out. Actually they’re quite nice on the face and would recommend them especially if you’re experiencing dry itchy skin on the face the one on the tub is the way to go ! Daily moisturizer when you need something lighter.
CeraVe has an oil free pm lotion - not sure about their other products. If I have clogged pores on a certain part of my face - I prefer to use glycolic pads at night and let it dry and leave it alone and just use an eye cream. Retinoids may help too at night. During the day - non comegenic/oil free serum and spf. I also like glycolic face washes. A benzoyl peroxide face wash works well for me when my skin gets more oily. I hope you find a good dermatologist for more advice.
I've been using La Roche Posay sunscreen for sensitive eyes that prevents irritation & it works great for me. There's no way I'd leave that particular area without sunblock protection, but any other sunscreen I tried irritated the hell out of my eyes.
Well, this was definitely a fun and informative video - much, much appreciated!
Just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate your videos. Never paid attention to skincare before but have had to learn quickly due to AGE creeping up on me with all it's creepy skin stuff.... BIG THANKS TO YOU - YOU ROCK IT GIRL!!!!
Thank you for the tip about using lip sunscreen around the eyes! My sunscreen has been forever burning my eyes and I just put up with it 😂 definitely going to try that out!
The lip balm for eyes is a great idea. My eyes always burn from sun screen. The only one that doesn't burn my eyes is Cerave Moisturizing Lotion with sun screen.
Great tip about the lip sunscreen around the eyes. Problem solved! I had no idea about Neosporin - will make that change! Love and hugs!
Thank you, Dr. Dray! I love Aveeno but their face gel lotion is a little pricey. I've used the body lotion on my face and it feels good. I haven't had any issues with it on my combination skin.
I just want to share my new HG facial sunscreen; very budget-friendly discovery - it's "Uriage Bariesun Fragrance Free Spray milk SPF 50+." 200ml bottle i paid around 13€ (i live in Europe). No alcohol denat. which i can't tolerate and no white cast. It is dewy but not like disgusting greasy.
Soothes the skin and didn't clog my pores. 💜
Great vid Dr. Dray!
Thank you so much! Love this type of content.
Someone may have already said this but, could you do a video of your favorite high end sunscreens! Would love to see what you enjoy using ❤️
More great advice. I changed to a routine of cerave products after watching your videos and my skin has never looked better. Not only that I have a little extra $$$ in my pocket as I am not spending so much money on fancy products that don’t really do anything other than smell pretty.
I started using Benzoyl Peroxide after your recommendation and it changed my life. I'm a clean person and bathe at least twice a day but I could never get rid of my body odor and ickiness in the summer season. But ever since I started using BP, I no longer have odor or sweat issues. Thank you!
As a poor brazilian man, it feels soooo good to know I don't have to spend all my money to have a decent skincare. Thank you so much.
Good morning Dr Dray and y’all! We just ❤️ you Dr. Dray! You’re rockin’ the house. We truly appreciate you! God bless you!! 🙏🥰
Love these videos so much!! Have a wonderful start to your week💙
I like how you pointed out that you spend more money on sunscreen than other products! I see others often recommending to spend less on the “basics” like cleanser, moisturizer, and spf because there are good inexpensive options, and while that is true, I think those are the products worth spending the most money on and time searching for them because they are the foundation of your skincare routine and are what do most of the heavy lifting when it comes to improving skin. I often also see the recommendation to “splurge” on serums which, again, makes no sense to me as those are the types of products that often have less research behind them. I think it’s more important to find basics that you enjoy using regularly and spending your money there than on pricey (and often gimmicky) serums.
Oof I splurge on my retinol and acids and I use a cheap sunscreen (but it’s also my favorite sunscreen) the A’Pieu sunscreen ❤️ it’s the closest dupe to the discontinued Dear Klairs Airy UV that I’ve used so far
But there are great inexpensive options and they are right to an extent as the key to spf is buying one of which formula you like and the price point is not so high as to prevent you from using it in a liberal amount that is needed and reapplying.
However you are also right, if you are willing to splurge on something spf is a great thing to choose.
haha I spend less on silly vanity products that never did it for me (masks, eye creams) buy cheaper simpler cleansers, then shifted that money towards my sunscreen. It's getting really expensive however. I only like/can use certain ones and holy cow, can someone make a really good oil free fragrance free sunscreen that's larger than 4.4 oz already? I'm so frustrated with buying all these tiny bottles so frequently. MDSolarScience just made their large mineral sunscreen even smaller when they introduced their new packaging. UGH!
@@andreavin3674 even smaller like just the packaging got smaller and the mL stayed the same? Or are they selling less product for the same price 😱
@@DefinitelyNotAFerret It’s the same price at 39.00 but with the new look it went from 4 oz to 3.4 :(
Hi Dr. Dray~
I'm korean skin care cosmetic chemist.
I'm really so happy watch you Video because you review i made products.
We live far away from each other, but we were moved to see each other making and using products like this.
I took a vacation today because I had a hard time with a lot of work recently, and I'm really happy to see your video and gain strength.
Thank you again. and have a nice dream~ from Korea~^^
and i push the aubscription button and wait your next video~^^
I absolutely love hearing from a woman doctor about women issues! Thank you, Dear! ❤️
Happy Monday dr Dray and everyone 😀. This was such a great video . Thanks for keeping it simple. I have learned that simple really is best for my skin type acne prone and probably for all skin types. Have a fabulous day love to mom and Tybee 🥰❤🌹🌻🌺
I tell my boyfriend to put moisture on his face all the time after shaving because he gets really bad razor burn. He says it'll make it worse. Well guess what the cerave lotions never let's me down. It worked and he doesn't want to admit it. He thinks skincare is a gimmick. 😑
I know how you feel, my father also thinks it is a gimmick. But, the CeraVe lotion does help a lot with razor burn. For example, my uncle the other day came to me asking if I had hand sanitizer to put on his face because of razor burn. He said it would overpower the burn with more burn. I told him to never do that again and I took out the CeraVe Lotion and told him to apply it. Sure enough, it instantly relieved the burning and irritation. He was amazed and took photos of it to buy it.
@@icedcoffeemondays awww that's so cute
Lol. If the gimmick works then... Why not???
@@tinalusiany Exactly!
As a guy myself I thought it was a gimmick too
What got me was looking into the science of it all. At least get him behind sunscreen, I think that one will be rather easy to explain
I love Cetaphil intensive Healing Lotion for the body with ceramides. I was wondering if it would work for face and so I tried it. It works so well especially right after a shower. It includes all the same goody ingredients as CeraVe and other expensive face creams, like niacinamide, hyaluronic acid, ceramides, and amino acids. Double duty and makes my routine effective and super quick. Saves a little money too. Glad you addressed this issue. Simple is awesome.
She says in another video that's it's fine for the face! I really wanna buy this one but I can't find it in stores
@@xpndnglmts it’s at cvs!
@@leylanipaola thank you,!
Thank you for educating us on marketing gimmicks vs proven ingredients. On this, can you please consider doing a segment on the effectiveness of newer ingredients surfacing in skin care such as melatonin, vitamin D, PAD (azelaic acid derivative) other vitamin Bs (B6, B9, B12).
Thank you so much Dr. Dray! I always look forward to your videos!
I’ve never heard Dr Dray mention Biore UV SPF 50+ aqua rich watery essence. I have never seen it in a store , but you can get it on YesStyle and other sites like that for under 10$.
It’s amazing! The texture is so light , it has no smell and it goes on under makeup beautifully.
I get mine on eBay 5 bottles for 20$ 😀
Never used another sunscreen like it…no white cast either! Feels almost like a gel moisturizer.
I have been using Lubriderm daily moisture for sensitive skin on my face and body. I do like it quite a bit.
Thanks always helpful and budget friendly. AWESOME
Awesome tips that I haven't heard before!
Thanks thanks thanks! These types of videos are the most helpful!☺️😘
Rosemary oil for the hair loss. And i use baking soda mixed with coconut oil as deodorant. Works BRILLIANT
lotion after shaving has really helped my ingrowns!
Any lotion, even cerave burns my legs after shaving
Great suggestions. I use A&D ointment on wounds (also good on chafing). Seems to heal them well. It’s one product I find the brand name is better than store brand. Petrolatum is the base but it’s sold as a diaper rash cream so look for it with the baby products.
Thank you for addressing the "Medical Grade" Skin Care marketing scam. Many people fall for the hype,
I have acne prone and very sensitive skin. You have really helped me and I appreciate you very much. I love the Cerave PM Face Moisturizer. I live in Phoenix and it keeps me well hydrated,
Again, thank you very much you are appreciated. xoxo
My dermatologist told me that the 2nd largest contributor to contact dermatitis after nickel was neosporin! I am definitely allergic to neosporin. I had contracted Pink Eye about 20 years ago and the doctor had prescribed Neosporin eye drops since I could not take the usual sulfa based eye drops. After using the neosporin eye drops my eyes swelled very badly! My coworker's were calling me YODA! Stay away from Neosporin!!
My skin is a lot better since using my basic body lotion on my face instead of facial moisturisers! It’s Nivea Soft and I think my skin is just so relieved by being given a simpler formula
:)
Good to know, thanks!,im all for simplifying!
That's also my favorite moisturizer, easily absorbed and well nourishing, tho I hope they can change Nivea Soft to fragrance free.
Yass same !
My 93 yo MIL uses Nivea lotion all over, including her face. Her skin is so soft!
i love using the avene very high protection hydrating lip balm around the eyes. never causes burning or stinging!! and it's so easy to apply with the stick
That’s nice to know. I have very sensitive skin on my eyelids and around my eyes. I started using lip sunscreen a few years back and it’s never bothersome. ❤️
my dad is a religious user of deodorant. introduced benzoyl peroxide to him and he loves it
While I don't necessarily disagree on using body lotions in place of facial moisturizers, I recommend people to check what's in their body lotions and do test swatches before applying directly to their faces. This comes from personal experience where I ruined my skin by rubbing it on my face (not immediately, but it got much worse over time and I did not introduce new products to my skincare routine), and it took a few years for my skin to recover. Watch out for irritating ingredients like fragrance and make sure to not only test it on your body first, but also on your neck or to a less sensitive part of your facial skin before using regularly. It never hurts to be patient and careful
Gonna try the lip sunscreen suggestion! Good way to use the product up too.
I haven't watched your videos in awhile, but I must say you look so healthy! Thank you for all the information.
THANKS! I have the vanicream lip cream, so will give it a try on my eyes. I also love the color science eye spf. Both products (and many many more) have been purchased through your links. I have learned so much. I was given a free sample of the ordinary 8% glycolic acid serum. I realize that is a low %, but trying it. What are your thoughts? I am also using tretinoin 0.05% at pm; working my way up. Lots of melasma due to hormones and sun abuse in the 70's-90's!

Ooo I had the worst breakouts trying to get away with using body lotion on my face because it was a heavy moisturizer that my acne prone facial skin couldn't take. Proceed with caution!!
Exactly
Same :(
Same. I could never get away with doing that. Most people have some form of problematic skin. Maybe that advice is for those who have normal skin
Neutrogena does NOT recommend to use their body lotion on our face
I used bath and body works lotion on my face when I was younger and got a chemical burn ...
Very sensible advice. I rarely buy products marketed for one specific cosmetic use. I've been been using body lotion for years for all skin care. I always choose one that won't be irritating when used near my eyes, and then use that for the rest of my body. Also, I use:
- lipstick for blush
- organic apple cider vinegar on my very-dripping-wet face as a toner ("brightener") and to restore pH balance. Let it dry naturally.
- organic apple cider vinegar as an underarm deodorant (but not immediately after shaving -- ouch!)
- baking soda to brush my teeth
- diluted hydrogen peroxide as an effective mouthwash and tooth whitener
The nice thing about these products is that they have other (non-cosmetic) uses. I use baking soda for cleaning (especially cooking pans, along with salt and white vinegar) and polishing chrome surfaced. And in the kitties' litter box. Hydrogen peroxide is good for cleaning cuts. During COVID (still in process) I've been travelling with a bottle of hydrogen peroxide in the car for disinfecting my gloved hands and various surfaces (but don't put it on metal or chrome, which it will damage over time).
Thank you for another informative video!
Happy Monday!
