    Sadly, about 20 years ago I went to see a dermatologist for breakouts He glanced at me and said ‘stop using hairspray and makeup ‘ and walked out of the room. I was terrified and complied for years Nothing improved I am sorry to say, and I lived in terror that anything I put on would cause a problem. It’s great there is the internet and people like you nowadays to help people understand more thoroughly.

      Are alcohol based toners good for oily ance prone skin? I have a oily breakout skin. And I'm now using clean and clear oil-control toner.

    • @preetidas9511
      @preetidas9511 4 роки тому +2

      @@yeemonoo6320 No they're not! Dr. Dray advices to stay away from them as they dry the skin further and as a result your skin produces even more oil. Dr. Dray advices to quit toners. If you don't want to quit toners then look for alcohol free ones which are loaded with humectants and obviously FRAGRANCE FREE. Korean brands have many alcohol free hydrating toners but pay a lot of attention to the ingredient list as many of them contain fragrance. Also there are some good moisturizing fatty alcohols like cetyl alcohol, stearyl alcohol etc. Alcohols to avoid at all costs are Alcohol denat (ethanol), isopropyl alcohol and when ingredient list simply states "alcohol". You can take help of Google for more info.

    @Ethentent 5 років тому

    I'm sitting here, struggling with cystic acne breakouts yet again, and I'm just blown away listening to you lay down this advice. I'm being brought to tears because so much of what you're saying are things I already know and that people like my parents have already told me, like not using so many products on my skin. I have given in way too readily to the temptation to introduce new products in the hopes that they will miraculously clear me up. But of course, I've had no such luck, and in fact they've had the opposite effect. Thank you so much for your straightforward, thorough videos about skincare. I'm learning so much from you. It's refreshing to listen to a dermatologist dump her knowledge on me without the time constraint of an in-person office visit. You're my new favorite UA-camr and I'm going to continue binge-watching your videos. :)

    You are always so generous with so much information! I will have my two teenage granddaughters watch this for sure. I no longer have acne but I’m beginning to realize that my skin actually looks better loosing the foundation and powder because now all it does is to accentuate my fine lines that I have traded for acne. 😳. I just figure that alive earned every line and wrinkle I now have. Thanks so much!! Sue

    So true about the makeup 🙏 I stopped and it changed my whole view of myself. I was so insecure and hated every bit of myself. When I stopped I began to love myself and accept my "flaws" and I felt 1000000x better. I where makeup only on special occasions now, and I'm so thankful for this. I highly recommend giving this a go. 💖 You're all much more beautiful than you may think. It's easy to see our own "flaws."

    Thank you so much! I always look forward to your informative videos. I have super oily skin and have had all my life. I’m 71 now and look younger so I guess that is a bonus for having oily skin. I have never worn much makeup, certainly not every day and I think that had something to do with looking younger too (along with never smoking). Thanks again and I’m wishing you and your Mom a very Merry Christmas.

  • @Tartesalee
    @Tartesalee 6 років тому +1

    Excellent information and tips. I agree with your points with the exception that an "exceedingly ripe" (practically popping out of your skin) blemish core can be carefully extracted without spreading the infection, cross contamination, scarring and so on, IF done correctly in a sterile situation. However, there are certain deep or "blind" blemishes that should never be touched, squeezed or picked. Hands off your face is the best advice, hands down.

  • @Kathy12Ray
    @Kathy12Ray 5 років тому +1

    Started watching Dr. Dray a month ago, IT'S LIKE I WENT TO SCHOOL! I threw out my old ineffective, fragranced, problematic and EXPENSIVE skin care, took only products recommended on her channel, started using sunscreen religiously for the first time in my life.....and other than doing my brows with a pencil, mascara and concealer, I've been make up free. My skin is plumping up, clearing and glowing. Plus, I started working out again. May God bless this woman.

    So true about makeup, especially foundation! I stopped using foundation when I started seeing my dermatologist and once my acne cleared up, it started looking better than when I wore foundation. I still wear eye makeup and lipstick to have some fun, but foundation isn't necessary once your skin is clear :)

  • @amixeblu
    @amixeblu 6 років тому +46

    I used to have hormonal acne in my 20s, on extremely dry skin. My dermatologist had the medicine (antibiotics) made in a thick moisturizing cream so that it wouldn't dry out my skin, this was when we were still figuring out whether it was hormonal or not. It was, and a low birth control pill first lessened it, then made it go away completely; it took several months though. Patience really is key.

      Here’s how I cured mine. I took zinc daily for a month. Then I had too much, but it helped a ton. I take probiotics & DIM (this helped me sooo much bc mine is hormonal only. I have super dry skin)
      Mix 1 tsp sea salt w 1/2 cup bottle water. I apply w cotton ball & leave on face for at least 10 min. Cleanse w vanicream bar, moisturize w cerave lotion.
      What helped my daughter w oily skin is following same routine as me, she uses clean & clear persa-gel 10 on her trouble areas every night.

      Nayleen Fonseca my heart goes out to you. I had cystic acne in my teens and early 20s and again in perimenopause. The only thing that helped was Retin-A, prescribed by the dermatologist. My face got worse before it got better but after 3-4 months it cleared. It was crazy expensive though. If you absolutely cannot afford a dermatologist, or pricey prescriptions, Differin gel (a retinoin) is available over the counter, $15 for a small Tube. Best of luck!

I don’t have dry skin like you, mine is an oil field and until my mid-30’s I never had a cyst but had lots of closed comedones. CC from age 11-20’s until I got that cleared, had a few good years and then the hormonal acne set in. Fun times. The cystic acne is so much worse!!
      Anyway, always cool to see someone who has had success with a similar protocol! Your daughter is lucky to have you guiding her! Never heard of the salt solution but will read into it - thanks!

    I totally agree with you Dr. Dray even since I stop my daily make up masking routine almost 8 years ago I discovered the freedom of not wearing a mask every day as well as my real glowing beauty on my own skin, most of my friends ask me why you look so glowing and your cheeks and lips are so rosy my answer is always I dont wear heavy make up every single day...oh I even wear SPF while I'm inside my house to is my every day. They dont believe me most of the times they think I'm wearing foundation on lipstick and blush but I'm not.... Also I'm so happy I found a truly gold fountain of wisdom in your chanel...

    @brittanyhorner4802 4 роки тому

    My skin got so much better after I stopped daily makeup. Only when I go out, at most 1 time a week. It’s (strangely) made me feel so much better about myself (acne cleared up crazy quickly) and has saved me lots of time in the AM and money. And I was one who wore makeup all day everyday. I still love it, but so much more now that I do it only when I want to and feel creative (no more “I have to get ready” stress). Now I’m just trying to get rid of tiny bumps, texture, and acne scars, and the progress is addicting which makes the routine (which is not that extensive) easy to follow.

  • @sunlight4169
    @sunlight4169 5 років тому

    Great info - THANK YOU Dr. Dray ! BTW, regarding foundation makeup, when I was a teen I had absolutely terrible, painful, cystic acne, and certainly agree that makeup made it so much much worse. Unfortunately my sister sold Mary Kay which made foundation very accessible in my home, regardless of the fact that as a desperate and naive teenager I had no clue that it was not suited for my skin type/not at all kind to my acne-prone face as MK's earlier formulations along with just about every cosmetic company way back then contained pore-clogging- ingredients and no cosmetic lines as I recall were formulated/marketed as "noncomedogenic" (and quite frankly my pores never recovered to this day on one side of my face where I seemed to break out more and used the MK makeup to cover up what the makeup was probably exacerbating- but fortunately did not have much residual scarring; after acne flares subsided only mild atrophic scarring in some isolated spots but I was very careful not to touch my face/pick at anything and that probably played a role because I was very lucky not to get more scars). Certainly not singling out Mary Kay, because back then just about EVERY foundation on the market was absolutely the worst thing for acne. Then I found out Liquimat by Summers Lab through my aunt's recommendation. It helped a great deal along with using 2% salicylic acid wipes and benzoyl peroxide. It took some time but finally with the Liquimat I could feel comfortable in my own skin , eventually to the point where I stopped wearing even the Liquimat tinted coverup. I wish this happy ending never went away. I still had very oily skin and loved how clean my skin felt after using cleaners but not knowing many were stripping my skin. (Also regularly used the St. Ives Apricot scrub too.) Unfortunately in my 30s I had inherited a chronic inflammatory skin condition from my dad which especially manifested on my nose/square in the middle of my face so I had full-face scanned CO2 laser on my Fitzpatrick Type II skin but it left me hypopigmented /waxy pinkish uneven pigment in many areas of my face. Now I have to wear makeup again-- and never look natural because of waxiness with makeup trying to cover it, even yellow/green based makeup not helpful as little if any pigment is there in much of my face now and only waxy pink comes through on skin tone even with the makeup:-(

  • @laurenrose2128
    @laurenrose2128 4 роки тому

    Oh my gawsh Dr D! Ive been using the apricot scrub with my clarisonic brush every day- come to find out through binge watching your videos this is what has caused the intense comedonal acne (I thought I had a rash that meant I was dying of some underlying/undiagnosed health issue). Ive stopped using both and in only 4 days the rash is gone and my skin is clearing! You are awesome- thank you!

    I went makeup free at my work last June. It's daunting at first since I was suffering from acne and acne scar, and I work at a doctor's office so I meet a lot of people in one day. I just have to believe that my decision is going to be beneficial to my skin care and grow thick skin. But it is liberating now and my skin feels light when I'm not wearing foundation. And so many people at work and regular patients have pull me aside and compliment on how well my skin looks now. Now I'm watching your video and I think it's a great and honest advice to cut off face makeup to prevent acne. Thanks Dr. Dray.

    I just want to start by saying I love your channel. I just discovered it recently and have been obsessed. I have to say that the single thing that’s made the biggest difference for my acne is my Clarisonic! I’ve been on retin-a and clyndoxyl for years and had pretty good results, but have only noticed a drastic difference after using the Clarisonic. While there is some initial irritation to be expected when starting daily manual exfoliation, I think there’s something to be said about the effectiveness of combining manual and chemical exfoliants. A lot of chronic acne sufferers swear by the Clarisonic.

    • @DrDrayzday
      @DrDrayzday  6 років тому

      it can be problematic as over exfoliation predisposed to post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation

    I used to never leave the house without makeup on because I hated my red dry skin. But since I've done a strict skincare routine and barely wear makeup unless it's a special occasion, my skin has never looked better!! I am confident in my skin without something covering it instead of treating and controlling the problem. Whenever I do wear a lot of eye makeup, usually the next day I am all inflamed around my eye area and red and flakey. I am very sensitive around my eyes.

    Wish I'd watched this sooner. I just went out and got a non-foaming salicylic acid cleanser from neutrogena which does have fragrance in it, not realizing the CeraVe SA cleanser is non-foaming as well. Think I'm just going to switch to 100% CeraVe products once I run out of everything else since my skin seems to love them and they're the only ones without fragrance and with the ceramides and niacinamides my skin really loves.

I wished I found you sooner, but for the past few days I have been watching all your videos about acne, because I had always had clear face and now in my late 30's I started breaking out and have no idea why. I watched your night routine for acne and I started to use differin adapalene cream every other night, but wanted to know do I need to use a moisturizer as well after applying differin or sunscreen/moisturizer only during the day. I would greatly appreciate if you could answer. Thank you!

Started reducing all of them 2 years later now i'm 23 and I have to thank myself for that. Thank you Dr. Dray for addressing these, I feel like not many people out there are aware that cosmetics and most of skincare products are in the end still chemical and the more you put on your face, the more risky and problematic the situation becomes. Also, listen to her and stop using all those automatic cleansing brushes people. Our face is not a car 🙄🙄
