Faded is the only product that has faded (maybe by 70%) my sun spots. I’ve been using it for a few months, but I saw results in about 4 weeks.

@@heavygovernmenthook Weirdo.
@@heavygovernmenthook Ironically, you’re the one who sounds sad
@@heavygovernmenthook Hmm
Hey did you break out first
Eczema is definitely NOT fun. I have spent many sleepless nights itching and scratching, waking up to spotty blood stains on my sheets. When it was really severe, it impacted my confidence and relationships. Ugh.
This is honestly so terrible in so sorry you've had to deal with this horror. Have you tried any natural remedies?
Omg same! I slather myself with peppermint oil when I go into an itching frenzy. It's all I can do. I've tried calamine, anti-itch cream, benadryl, mosquito relief..... nothing. Even combined nothing worked. I know you're not supposed to put peppermint oil straight on but.... it works if you do. Lil cooling, lil sting, lil numbing. Boom. Perfect relief. Never even knew the itch was there. Tbf, I never did this on my face. I've only used it on my body parts so use at your own risk and don't rub your eye after.
@@kimberlykv4313 have you ever tried oats like a mask from the paste? It's one of the only things I could use for itchy skin when I got hives, although I know it's probably different. Peppermint and Rosemary oil do wonders for the itchiness as well but yeah for your face especially never just put on the oil, but you can dilute the oil with cold ice water. Just some tips!
Have you considered Kiyamel Natural Products. It’s a natural skin care brand accepted by the National Eczema Associate. It has treated some of the most severe eczema cases.
OMFG same. Moisturizer all over the face and vaseline on the flaky, red eczema areas are the keyyyy
Thank you Dr Dray for always presenting the facts, you are the first person I go to for information and debunking and not some magazine. Have a great day 😊
Thanks for watching
Yes! I truly appreciate your scientific facts and how you often mentions studies of the products.💞
If anyone is looking for a more affordable option to the like butter mask, the eucerin eczema cream has colloidal oatmeal, licorice, and ceramides. Been using as a night cream for a while and it's great, really helps with redness. It's about $10 for a large 8 oz. tube.
Thanks for the tip.
Glycolic acid is really good. (Don't use faded and GA together)
Agreed
@@depressed_weighted_B1anket I heard Glycolic acid wasn’t good for oily skin? Idk I’m sensitive and oily.
Edit: my bad I think they said not good for sensitive skin.
I tried the faded serum after listening to all the hype and I am so glad I did. In just a few weeks it has turned around a nasty scar near my mouth. Other products helped but this one just cleared it up after I struggled with it for years. I read a review on the mists that said you should rub it in and that'll get rid of the stickiness. After my success with the faded serum I am going to try the body spray.
@@AndreaL3033 yeah, Dr. Dray literally said, "skip the spray"
I just ordered both of them a few days ago! Can’t wait to try them.
that's awesome! can ask how often you apply it? i've been interested to try it and i've heard you should start wearing it only once a week and slowly increase. what frequency has worked for you that's provided these results?
@@mf2709 I use the cream on the particular area every night.
How to apply faded?
I just bought faded and im excited to try it! I’m an esthetician and I have a couple clients of color/melasma clients I’ve recommended this to and they’ve had incredible results. I give them monthly chemical peels and have them use this a couple times a week at night. Absolutely blown away by the results. Thank you for this in depth review!
Well, did it work 😅? Don’t leave us hanging….
I totally agree with you Dr. Dray. I have hormonal acne and it's no fun for me. I want to get rid of it. Sometimes when there is too much acne flares it just shake the confidence level and it's no fun.
Omg was dying to see this review!! Thanks so much Dr Dray!! ❤️
I love your videos. So honest, educating, professional and down to earth. Thank you!
The Faded serum has helped me tremendously, HOWEVER, I feel like the batches are inconsistent, and the product oxidizes (my guess) over time. With a fresh tube, the smell is somewhat bearable, but as time goes on the smell gets worse. With my latest tube, I noticed a slight fragrance, and the smell wasn’t as bad as it normally is. I haven’t paid attention to the ingredients lately, so perhaps the formula has changed. If I remember correctly, coconut oil has always been an ingredient in the product, but perhaps they experimented with taking it out? Regardless, I still think it’s an effective product from personal experience! It’s a great alternative to a prescription product.
I saw some influences on tiktok promoting the faded cream, but they didn't go into what is actually in the Faded cream that makes such a difference.
Glad to have Dr Dray!
I actually like this product considering I have combination skin and get acne scarring. It actually has helped fade my scars with consistent nightly use. However, I only use it on the actual spot where the acne was and not all over my face!
Thanks for the review. I think topicals has really good branding and does seem “cool”. I purchased like butter and I just forget to use it which is not a ringing endorsement. I agree about ingredient discrepancies/fragrance/“fun of flareups” points as well.
Faded has dramatically improved my melasma. It took a few months of regular use, but I'm much better off now. Nothing had helped before it. (Hydroquinone is supposed to be the gold standard, but I was too scared to give it a go.) I started using Faded after the folks at Doctorly recommended it. This is the first I've heard of any controversy and it is interesting to hear more about the product.
Ooh I want to try it … how often did you use it ? Everyday?
Me too.... this reduced my stubborn spots more and faster than my consistent use of tretinoin, timeless vita C and AHAs. For what its done, $36 is well worth it and im still on my first tube. But be warned, (Im suprised Dr Dray didnt mention) it smells sooo bad, like rotten eggs. No pain, no game! lol
I heard from doctorly and bought it ,and now with dr dray's explanations i am sure 100% about it.
Hydroquinone is "not the devil". Watch Dr Dray's video on it, where she explainins why people are hesitant to use it, and how to use it effectively and safely. Also the illogical reason that it is no longer available of the shelf in the USA. The hydroquinone cream I use is the John Plunketts Superfade Original. The larger size original formula is the same formula as the smaller tube for the face, just more economical. I'm in Australia.

I'm so glad this was a mostly positive review; I LOVE these products! I stick to drugstore brands like LRP and CeraVe, but Faded and Like Butter (the serums -- definitely no interest in the sprays) are the two expensive products that I repeatedly purchase. Faded is to be used very lightly and you have to start slow and work your way up to avoid breakouts, but it has helped by hyperpigmentation by an insane degree. I use the Like Butter just the way you did: I put it on before bed and don't remove it. It makes my extremely dry skin so incredibly soft. I really enjoy both!
Hi, what’s wrong with the Faded spray one? Sorry I just gotta ask and would really appreciate an insight from someone who has had repeatedly panned out a certain product’s tube, I was about to purchase the Faded bundle of both the serum and mist on their website and decided to watch some reviews on here first.
@@i_am_absolute2974 Hey! They don’t really dry down. They remain tacky long after application and it’s uncomfortable. You could still give them a shot because it might be different for you, but I just find the serums to be much nicer, application-wise
I appreciate you making these videos. I suffer from melasma. I have tried many prescriptions, from hydroquinone to laser treatments and oral tranexamic acid. I finally see results. I recently purchased this product to add to my list to keep my melasma under control. Of course, I always wear sunscreen. Thank you for all your videos. You are the best!
what laser treatment you get?and how many sessions?
So thankful for this review. I feel like you are in the everyday peoples corner. I don’t know what I’m doing, but have learned so much from you. I was thinking about trying this brand after an influencer talked about it on instagram. After looking it, the website seemed good. I can’t afford to spend money on things I don’t have to though. I will buy inexpensive brands you’ve introduced me to that works without wasting money. Thanks so much!!!!!
I have had moderate to severe eczema for almost 14 years now and the "fun in a flare up" part is boiling my blood. It is not fun at all. It is in fact crippling. I used to think that this should qualify as a disability because moving my arms and turning my neck to look over my shoulder while driving was incredibly uncomfortable and painful for me. Eczema, acne, rosacea, psoriasis and such conditions are not fun. Thank you for always having our back Dr. Dray.
I know exactly what you mean. I have severe eczema and I am in a flare up right now. I can barely bend my fingers. I get the lovely deep cuts all over my fingers and palms. I don't care what anyone says eczema is painful and draining.
Don't leave out Sebhoreaic Dermatitis it also ruins life and is incurable
I wouldn’t go as far as calling or considering it a disability but it is definitely not FUN.
@@Zandiyana i consider it a disability for myself. I have been through literal hell.
@Trinity M It’s NOT medically defined as a disability anywhere in the world. Those are the facts.
Really interesting to hear about treatment claims and reviews!
This was great info and I appreciate your input. I’d love to see more review videos like this one. I’d love to know what you think about the “glass skin” trend.
I am so grateful for your content. Doctorly recommended FADED to me and my face has not been happy with its substance. It breaks me out in context dermatitis. So maybe I got a tube with undisclosed parfum in it too!!
The Like Butter is in this month's Allure box. I have Lupus and eczema and was wondering if I'm actually going to take a chance and put this on my face. Turns out I am going to give it a shot after watching this. Also, the putting the fun in a flare statement isn't offensive to me personally. I'm a graphics/packaging sucker and love the fun 70's vibe. I can't wait to get this and slather it on my face. Finger's crossed!
Yehey, been waiting for this!
You look fabulous here Dr. Dray! Have a good day!
I love Like Butter. I don't wipe it off either I just use a little bit on my damp face. Makes my dry skin feel so plump and soft. I received it in an Allure Beauty box so I didn't have to pay full price either ❤
This was so helpful! I have seen them pop up in targeted ads and was curious about their products. This reminded me of a question I’ve been wondering about lately: what are the different coconut-derived ingredients that lean comedogenic and which are the coconut-derived ingredients that are usually refined enough not to trigger the traditional coconut sensitivity? Paula’s Choice lists some versions of coconut-based ingredients as unfairly vilified and not pore-clogging in general but I’m starting to get confused. Cocokind spf has coconut alkanes and that seems to be more traditionally seen as pore-clogging than others (and happened to cause breakouts in my skin). I know ingredient-based recommendations are sort of annoying, but is there like a “safe” list of coconut-derived ingredients vs. ingredients that are more commonly irritating? Just a question I’ve been coming up against as I try to focus on a hydrating mineral spf that does not cause clogged pores.
People are exaggerating about coconut oil. Not everyone has a problem with it. Plus these tiny amounts in tubes is nothing like slapping it on straight from the jar.
Glad for this review- I watched that other popular dermatologist review for this and was ready to pounce (but it was sold out!) I didn’t realize it had coconut oil in it! Coconut oil and my skin does NOT get along and after about four months of Differin my skin is the clearest it’s been since I was on accutane. I’d be really upset to get a cyst from it.
I tried the Faded cream about a year ago and I remember it had a burnt rubber kind of smell. I noticed maybe some improvement (rosacea, oil/combo skin with hyperpigmentation from freckles and acne), but not enough to continue. Instead I tried the Regimen Lab Vitamin X serum next and have appreciated a MUCH bigger difference. Plus the texture is much nicer and lighter weight than the Faded cream (sticky and thick).
The smell is horrible but you have to trust the process
Thanks so much for the reviews.
Have a good day. 😊
Never heard of this brand. I always find your reviews very helpful in finding new products and deciding whether or not I want to try them. Thanks, Dr Dray! Happy Monday!! I hope you have a relaxing evening. 💟
you too!
yay was looking forward to this review! 💜😊
Thanks for watching
I have been using the topicals faded cream and it has really helped to prevent new dark spots from acne.
I have also used the faded like butter .It's somewhat the same as the stratia liquid Gold but thicker.I use it at night with adapalene.
Hi, I'm new to your channel and have been binge watching your videos, they're brilliant, so informative. I love your down to earth attitude 💗
Thank Dr Dray I appreciate all your videos.
I love this brand. It has delivered on the improvements that it promises for hyperpigmentation that has not budged in years. Its definitely worth the spend.
Great review! They posted the change on the social media account. The ingredients changed for both of the products.
Oooh! Always good to get a new review. Which is odd for me, as I tend to go with Inkey List stuff, and I'm very unlikely to buy anything. Still, it's fun to learn.
Excited to try this as a “spot treatment” on my few brown spots ive got from picking at pimples on my face. Was also recommended by Dr Alexis here in youtube. I like you both equally for advice.
did it work for the brown spots to go away? and in how long? i really wanna try this cream but I'm not sure the skin picked dark spots will go away
I appriciate the honest review!!! I'm still on my first tube of Faded. I find it a little oily. It's okay now that it's winter and Im the north east where my skin is dry but I don't think I would use it in warmer months.
I found this video very helpful and appreciate the education & insight you provided here. Not a brand I’m too interested in, which, from the sound of things, may not be a bad thing! Happy hump day, Dr. Dray❣️❣️🌟🌟
Happy Monday Dr Dray!
Happy Monday
loved this review! Dr Dray, would you consider sharing your workout tips/routine in a video? :)
I already have these and I was wondering what you thought about them so glad you review them thanks
I loved this video and information we got here ♥️ it was so interesting to watch after seeing a few “skin expert” influencers really rave about these products, saying these are new holy grails with perfect ingredient lists. And here is someone who actually knows about ingredients and shares her knowledge with us 🙂 I was so interested in purchasing, now I am not so sure
Dr Dray is being biased, unfortunately. No ingredients list is perfect but she also recommended a $100+ sunscreen.
Try it out for yourself. And always patch test. Many doctors who specialise in skin of colour have recommended Topicals.
Dr Dray was off on this one.
Thank you for reviewing this product. I had a breakout and I thought it was from another product, but I guess it could be from the faded serum. I will try it again to see which product it really is.
About the whole fragrance thing at first it was completely free of fragrance like everyone requested but because everyone complained of how the smell was so stinky and nobody tolerated it they had to reformulate to take down a little bit of that smell down so maybe they forgot to update their website
I did hear about that, but looks like there is still no fragrance. Perhaps a masking ingredient?
Thank you for reviewing it!
This brand looks cool but never tried it. Thanks for sharing!
I missed this video but thank God I found it after I’ve seen the ads. I was having a 2nd thought of purchasing, felt products are questionable. Thank you you just answere my questions ❤😅
I’m on my second tube of faded and had great results using it every other days the tube lasts so I think it’s a good value. Just got the butter and I use it over night and just use a small amount on damp skin and works great on my dry skin. I don’t wipe off either since I don’t load up on it
How long does the tubes last for you? I've purchased two of them and will return the 2nd one if it lasts long. I see that you can combine with Retin A so I will be using every other day. Thanks
@@puertoricanprincess2272 over 4 months, I think.
I was looking for this review for so long, I already orded my Faded serum. Thank you so much for this informative video.
I have been using topicals brightening serum for a while. I use it to reduce my post-acne scar on my upper chest, which has really faded my dark spots. Overall I am pleased with my purchase and planning to continue with this product in the future!
Thank you Dr Dray! 🧸
Dr Dray, I keep seeing constant adverts for Augustinas Bader products pop up on UA-cam. The advertising seems more ruthless than usual with this brand. I looked them up out of interest and the products are extortionate. So glad that experts like yourself show us there's no need to covet these items and spend so much money.
Thank you for this lovely review. Like many others, I broke out in cystic acne from using Faded. I even reached out to the brand to request for a coconut oil free formula but they said it works for majority of customers. I wish brands put in more effort to cater to acne prone skin. Coconut oil is notoriously for causing acne. Especially for someone looking to get rid of dark spots, their faded product was a nightmare. I wish they would reformulate. I will stick to Regimen Lab's Level Serum for the time being.
I got really bad deep acne on my cheeks using the faded tube. I also thought it was the coconut oil.
Disappointed @ “it works for the majority”. How about something that works for everybody? Was excited to try this when I first heard of it but too expensive to get here in the UK and don’t wanna try something that makes PIH better but acne worse!
@@hirry.p In fairness, nothing really works for everything. Everyone has different skin, lifestyles and environments. So it’s kinda unreasonable to expect a product to work for everyone.
Edit: typo
Kinda weird because I just checked their website and it looks like they took the coconut oil out
SAME!!! i thought i was the only one. I wanted to like the product so bad, being that it had so many positive reviews
I love you for being truthful.
Yes! I was just looking at these. Thank u🙂
I think I have the same version you do and the smell is pretty rank so I’m glad they changed it, hopefully it doesn’t change the effectiveness. I like that a little goes a long away so it’ll last since it is higher priced.
A more affordable and efficacious "all-in-one" hyperpigmentation product is the Bright & Clear Cream from a brand called touch. ~$20 for 2 oz. and includes niacinamide, azelaic acid, kojic acid and tranexamic acid. I use it on body sites, but it's good for both face and body. Anecdotally, I've seen dramatic improvement of years-old hyperpigmentation between my thighs and private areas and haven't experienced any irritation. It's a cream vehicle so it's also moisturizing to a degree and spreads very nicely, considering.
That's a Penn Smith Skincare favorite.
This comment needs to be pinned or something!! If you’ve ever used it on your face, do you mine sharing where in your face routine you fit it in?
@@sams517 For the face, I use it only on my forehead because that's where I have some dark spots. I use it in the emulsion stage, which would be right before your final moisturizer. If you're not prone to dryness, you could also try using it as a final moisturizer because it is a decently thick cream vehicle.
I’ve been thinking of getting this! Do you have acne?
Can you please perhaps make one on Cyroskin facials? Love your videos!
Thanks, Dr. Dray, for the informative review. I was interested to try the Faded serum, but now, I am not too sure that I need it.
Totally agree about the sprays, particularly the pink one. Very sticky even once it dried, very uncomfortable. I regret buying it...
I really liked faded and like butter. It’s only product that didn’t irritate my skin and actually worked
For people in the EU, you should try transparant lab's PIH sun spot fading treatment. It's a good dupe for faded and it is only 15 euros (also cruelty/animal products/fragrance free)! I've been using it for a few weeks now and I noticed a lot of improvement. The reduction in hyperpigmentation in 4/6 weeks was similar to what I would see in 2/3 months of prescription retinol and azelaic acid!
Yes, surprised no one talks about them. I've been using their products the PIH treatment and cleanser for a year now and I'm really enjoying them.
Any other Spain or Uk brands you recommend? I’m moving there and am looking for products like the one you mentioned. Thank you
@@Trainfeastfast I mostely buy k beauty, because EU brand products tend to be expensive for what you get. The only brands I can think of apart from the famous EU brands that are not extremely overpriced are face theory, geek and gorgeous, niche beauty lab (they own transparant lab but also other brands), revox and korres.
@@wallflower6942 Thank you🤗
Thank you so much! I didn't know about Niche Beauty, it looks like a really good brand!
I've always thought this brand seems very aesthetically pleasing but too expensive for me!
I feel like these are really good for preventative care,I plan on trying it once I get rid of some of my deeper marks
pleeeeaaase make a video deep diving connective tissue disorders & topicals that have to do with collagen production !!! i have ehlers danlos and my collagen levels are naturally just weird so anything skin care & “collagen boosting” spooks me, nobody talks about this !!
Her skin!👀 walk the talk✨
I haven't heard of that brand but thanks for sharing
Happy Monday Dr Dray and peeps ❤️ ❤️ 🎉💐
Happy Monday
“Fun in a flare-up” said no one who has a skin condition like eczema. Ages ago, my right hand was so itchy, I torn the skin open rubbing on my jeans while nursing my oldest. I have battled eczema off and on since I was in high school. Flare-ups were usually on my hands but also the inner elbows, small of my back, and lower thighs. And yes, often I couldn’t sleep because of the intense itch/scratch cycle. Since following Dr. Dray, I have been fanatical about keeping my entire body moisturized. That’s my cure. Follow this gal on YT and it’s like saying “eczema be gone.”
Now the have the travel size Faded! It’s $18
I just bought the Faded serum and when I checked the ingredients there’s the Ethylene Brassylate on the list. Also when I checked on their website, it was included on their list there as of typing this.
I went to Sephora to buy the brightening serum but they were sold out..I’m glad I didn’t waste my money on these!
Recently started using Faded Topicals Brightening and so far it's going well but might be too early to say. The only thing I didn't like is how tacky it is, so if I'm layering products I put it on last (but before sunblock of course). They must've heard your comment about the size! They now have it in 0.33 fl oz. Mine has no scent, it does list coconut oil as an ingredient.
I prefer the Level Serum from Regimen Labs. It has similar ingredients to the Faded one. I rotate between Level Serum and Milano CC (vit c serum) every morning. Foĺlowed by SPF 🌞. Ive definitely seen a difference in terms of sun damage, ance scars, dullness and hyperpigmentation.
How long did you start seeing results from the level serum? And does it help your acne?
@@maddiehox77 i dont have active acne anymore but I do (did) have acne scarring. I can barely see them many more. I saw results from Milano CC Serum in under a month, no joke. I used that for about 2 years before i bought The Level Serum. So its hard to say because my skin had already pretty much evened out prior to using it. But The Level has helped even more. Its great stuff, a great list of ingredients.
im 68 and have quiet a lot of sun spots and tried a lots of stuff and to my surprise " Faded " help a lots eaven after a few weeks applying every 2 days...Thank you Doc 👍👍
As someone who has had eczema flare ups I totally agree with you. Def not fun
I've never heard of this brand but anything that warns me that it will cause pilling or my skin will stick to itself is a definite no-go. Happy Monday Dr. Dray! 😊
Thanks for watching
Yeah it pilled on me the whole time I used it up but won't purchase again.
@@arethaburke7986 😕
Thank you for pointing out some of the potential fragrance issues. I haven’t had problems and I’ve been using for a month. I believe one of the founders of the brand has eczema. I did find the spray a bit sticky, but used less and rubbed in more and not experiencing that anymore. It’s already working for the hyperpigmentation on my legs.
Happy Monday! Have a nice week everyone 😊
Happy Monday
i ordered this today and im super excited to try it, i hope my skin can tolerate it.
Happy Monday!
Happy Monday
I have eczema and they posted a pic on their Twitter acct showing a before/after of a user eczema scar clearing up. I literally purchased faded for this reason and it did nothing!! I now use it on my body to not waste product, but I was very underwhelmed. I knew I didn't want the body sprays. That's a lot of money already spent. The faded stunk really bad so apparently they reformulated it. Maybe that's where the confusion about the fragrance is coming from. I have a tube from when they first launched & threw my box out so I can't confirm the ingredients either. I won't be purchasing again.
FYI, the Skinsmart antimicrobial spray has faded and overall helped my eczema more that Topicals. Anyone reading this that has eczema should run and get that spray! I just put Vaseline on top after I spray and voila!
I’m so ready for this
I’ve been hoping you would one day review the “Topicals” products! Fortunately, I don’t have discoloration on my face or neck, but I DO have it on my chest and arms-so that’s where I use the “Faded” cream. However, I find that it has a dreadful odor, which it off-putting! If I could get past it, I would certainly I use it much more frequently!
Greetings VE Tsai hope u r well n Happy Monday😀👍💜….
Thanks for the review. Would really appreciate a true before/after photos to see if it actually fades hyperpigmentation . Im a skeptic when it comes to efficacy of products because the percentages are not listed. Some say there are pore clogging ingredients. Is that true? Would u choose PCA gel (non HQ) over faded?
Wow thank you so much for reviewing these products. I have been thinking about buying them. Now I will not!! Thank you for saving me money and unnecessary irritation.😊
Love topicals, definitely worth it for the price 💗
I think it was added bc of the complaint of the smell. On there website under full ingredients list it’s says:
”Please be aware that ingredient lists may change or vary from time to time. Please refer to the ingredient list on the product package you receive for the most up-to-date list of ingredients.”
The faded serum has coconut oil and Shea butter, so I didn’t bother since I’m acne prone. I do love Regimen Lab’s Level Serum as well as Vitamin X serum in tackling hyperpigmentation. I also use tretinoin and Riemann’s Sun cream for kids.
they actually came out w a new formula and it doesn’t have coconut oil anymore !! i have very oily acne prone skin and it’s done wonders to my skin!!:))
@@juliehernandez3445 is it the spray? That contains fragrance.
I have super oily, sensitive skin. I use it twice a week at night and didn’t notice any new acne or irritation which I was afraid of also. I definitely noticed a difference in how much lighter my acne scars got. Everyone’s skin reacts differently to certain ingredients so the only way to know is to give it a try!
Just curious why you cited she's butter as if it's commonly reactive for acne-prone skin...
Happy Monday. You mentioned something real quick about Lupus. I have Morphea. Will this work to fade the discoloration?
Looked up this video as soon as I was done putting the Faded Topicals as a mask. My experience with it is that it spreads nicely, leaves a glow, but much of it does not absorb into my skin (have tried on washed damp face or after serum or lotion) and begins to pill as soon as it dries, even with a very light coat. Another observation that I do not see discussed here is the VERY strong sulfur smell. I know sulfur can be good for acne, so I kind of enjoy it, but this and the pilling is why I use it as a mask now. I don’t know if it has been effective, since I also use Tretinoin (0.05, primary care) and hydroquinone 6% (Musely). If I had to simplify (i like to experiment, hey), I think consistently practicing a double cleanse, moisturize (love Eucerin, CeraVe, Aveeno, etc), sunscreen (UVB and UVA!!), hats, hats, hats, and tretinoin (love) has done (and will continue to do) the bulk (97%) of the work. Lol
I got Faded due to the impressive ingredient deck. Seems like it contained all the active ingredients to treat hyperpigmentation. However, I have abandoned using it with about half tube left because 1) the sulfur smell, 2) greasy and slides around, never seems to soak in, 3) didn’t notice much improvement. It is possible they added fragrance now since the earlier version that I got had really strong unpleasant smell that lingers.
I noticed that Sephora sells Faded with the butter if you want the duo. I decided to just go for Faded. I think I will stick with a cheaper moisturizer.
Hey Dr. Dray, I was recently in an accident and I had to get my face stitched. Do you have any recommendations for this type of scar or should I just treat it like I would acne scars? Thank you, stay safe!
Happy Monday! 💕💕
Happy Monday
To the point, and no BS, Thank you Dr. D.........BTW...your skin is so bright and "happy" today ! I mean you always have a very cheerful face, but today it's a shade brighter with a nice healthy glow 😀
Much appreciation for your dedication ! and coming your way from Asheville !
