As time went on, my face lost its glow, acquired dark spots and blemishes that appeared to multiply despite my efforts with various skincare routines. After researching a lot, I finally got litttleextra rice berry face serum and began applying it beneath my sunscreen. Weeks passed, and the serum started to work its magic. The spots slowly faded away, showing a smooth and more even-toned complexion. Apart from this, I began cleaning my face thrice a day. Next, I started drinking about six glasses of water daily. I made an effort to eat less junk food, and I started engaging in physical activities to I could have a wonderful sweat on my face. All this worked, and I got a nice glow on my face.
It’s excellent for sensitive skin, it has great quality, and its smell is so good. After using it, it doesn’t leave my skin oily and maintains skin hydration consistently. I really enjoy using this ricebery face serum.
I just realized 50% of the reason I watch you is because of your content but the other half ...is because of your personality!!! 🤩🥰. Love ya Dr. Idriss!!

My 65 year old mom has been tanning her whole life. Not using sunscreen lots. It’s amazing she doesn’t have worse skin but she did ask me what to do about her pigmentation on her cheeks. So I can now give her even more tips. Thank your Dr! As always. Obsessed with your channel. You’ve helped me so much! ♥️
My own doctor that has 3 Ivy league degrees and 40 years of medical experience told me that sun doesn't cause skin cancer. Sun is cover up for the real cause which are photosensitive toxins in the blood near the skin aka medicine, alcohol, cigarettes etc 🙉🙊🙈
My mom is 55, we live in Brazil, she literally HATES wearing sunscreen, so she doesn’t use it, and has never used, and loves to bathe in the sun. Her face is clearer than mine, and I hate the sun, and always use sunscreen, I have my father’s genetics. But my mother’s genes are insane, she looks amazing
I love my Korean sunscreens. They are cosmetically elegant, don’t burn my eyes and have superior new ingredients that can’t get approval here. These are used in Europe, Korea and Australia. Come on FDA get some new laws on your books and welcome in the 21st century!!
I use European sunscreens, they are the most advanced. All those mineral filters are comedogenic and US used chemical filters are ridiculously outdated and absolutely ineffective. FDA is just corrupted and bribed, protect the market.
I really need this! ❤️I feel like I’ve been going around in circles. I get a blemish/dark spot, treat it, then get another blemish/dark spot and treat it. The cycle continues!! 😭
I've had both melasma on my cheeks and kp on my arms all my life. The mean remarks about my chicken skin and Summer mustache are something I've had to prepare myself for with dread every year. I don't have the money to visit a dermatologist, so I really appreciate your videos! Et j'aime que vous parlez français!
The Ordinary glycolic acid toner and AmLactin lotion are great for KP, as for melasma, the Cerave retinoid is great, and the La Roche tinted sunscreen (for pigmentation) helps with extra protection and hiding visible patches, hope this helps!
Thank you so much for the video! Hyperpigmention is a bane of mine. VIDEO REQUEST: Corners of mouth. how to deal with pigmentation (after angular chelitis) and how to deal with corners starting to fold/droop?
nipple cream!!!! The dryness and cracking cycle makes me hyperpigment. I cleared it in 2 days with lanolin nipple cream. Cracked nipple skin = cracked mouth skin. It cleared so quickly. I was actually using hydroquinone, retinoid, vitamin c, and niacinimide in 2 different products for 2 months with no luck. Nipple cream knocked it out!
Please do a video with a sample weekly and daily routine. Knowing about all these products is great, but how to actually use them in a routine would be be extremely useful.
YESSSSS!!!! I need this! Thank you! EDIT: I have been prescribed 8% hydroquinone by my dermatologist. With the other products you recommended to help hyperpigmentation, could you next touch on, or write a blog for Pillowtalk Derm, that says which ingredients you can and can't use with hydroquinone during the same application?
@tabbyjoyce9379 I think it might have if I'd kept using it. It didn't help that it began to smell strongly like maple syrup, which made my husband not want to be anywhere near me on the nights I used it. Sorry, I prefer cuddles with my man. Lol. I wish I had a better answer for you.
Ambi has made a world of difference for my spots when I use it as a spot treatment. I dab it on the spots that are darker and create a sort of dot mask on my face and leave it on for like 5 minutes then I rub them in, let it absorb and then slather on that sunscreen. I use it on and off and it has been a game changer for me for sure
@efatjokar7393 I just looked and it looks like they don’t make it with that ingredient anymore which really sucks lol but if you want to pay more money, I think some of the prescription companies online will prescribe the ingredient still
So off topic but the view of the city in the background and the ambience in general were super calming for some reason. Thank you for posting these videos 💓💓
Yess! I love you Dr Shereene Idriss and how real you are! I love that it sounds like my friend is talking to me!! Your personality is stellar and i always look forward to your next video!!
Yesss! The beauty of Joseon Sunscreen, you finally used it. So much love for that sunscreen! I even purchased 3 tubes bec I tried one bottle and I emptied it for 2 mos only. It's a sunscreen and a moisturizer for me which helps me on the process of trimming or simplifying my skincare. It really surpass the expensive sunscreens out in the market with the same result or even better. It's truly worth the hype!
as someone with super sensitive eyes (and please correct me if im wrong) i’ve noticed that using a physical sunscreen as an eye cream and on my sensitive parts and then using a chemical sunscreen on the parts that aren’t sensitive has been SUPER helpful because i hate the textures and casts of physical sunscreens, but i don’t notice a lot of that issue just using a physical sunscreen as a spot treatment for my sensitive areas
Hi from Ireland, oh dear god my eyes were like 2 Trevi fountains after certain sunscreens. I found A'pieu factor 45pa+++ an absolute saviour. Not only did it stop my weeping but its a very elegant formula, with the consistency of a medium moisturiser. quite velvet to touch. Also, it's very nominal in comparison to other brands. Excuse my late reply, but I've been up watching our Eurovision.. yay for Ukraine!!
@@nancytrobaugh1424 im trying out the pipette baby one soon but right now im just using an old make prem one that i don’t like a whole lot for my eyes but there’s also the colorscience ones that are really good for blue light protection (from the sun not from the negligible amount that comes from our screens) and im looking for ones that have iron oxides for blue light protection as well
I'm glad it seems young people have got the message about sun exposure. We didn't know about the damage it does until I had already ruined my skin with tanning. I have spent many thousands of dollars on trying to repair it, incuding facelift, red light treatments, skin cancer treatments, topical meds, and laser procedures. Finally I have my skin looking much better, but prevention is a better idea! From now on I am wearing sunscreen every day of the year, as well using retiniod, and regular derm appointments to monitor for future cancers.
I've made great progress and the only issue left is some hereditary under eye darkness, that is slowly getting lighter. Your advice has helped immensely on this journey. Slow and consistent use is definitely KEY. Next my scalp. Appt with dermatologist Monday afternoon.
Love your commentary on this issue! Also, I had no idea our skin becomes immune to Hydroquinone - I will use it 2 months on then 2 months. You are wonderful and I appreciate your honesty! Cheers
This is the first time I’ve seen someone mention Addison’s Disease related to melasma, so thank you. I have both. Also, lots of sun damage from my youth (in AZ no sunscreen whatsoever, frequent blistering sunburn as a child). The three things together make it hard to treat my large melasma patches on the face, neck, and chest. I do wear sunscreen religiously though.
I am 72 years old and was in the sun constantly growing up in Los Angeles at the beaches. It was like a contest to get as dark as you possibly could by using baby oil. No one knew about sunscreen or that the sun was problematic at the time. So, now even though I stay completely out of the sun, but I did as a teenager has caught up with me
I'm almost 38 weeks pregnant and wanted to see you to treat my stretch marks after I gave birth as I remember you saying in a youtube short that with stretch marks it's a marathon. I called your office but they said that I wouldn't be able to do any of the lasers if I'm planning to breastfeed and that you're also booked till Feb 2023 😐
The naturium Azaleic acid emulsion and their tranexamic acid emulsions gave me amazing results- figured id share (they arent to pricey too!) also the allies of skin pigmentation corrector was really effective (pricey and like realllllyyyy powerful so chew easy!)
Thank you so much, my skin is looking much better in the 6 months that I've been following your advice. I have melasma. Using prescription retinol at night, hydroquinone and timeless vit C in the morning, but not sure in which order to apply. Please please do a video on how to layer all of the products you mentioned.
@@lisamanetta9567 I mean in which order to apply each product. This is not addressed. If I have missed this, maybe you can tell me whihch to apply first, hydrquinone or vit c?
I’ve always heard hydroquinone and retinols should be used at night. You can get a Rx from the dermatologist that has both tretinoin and hydroquinone in it. Use Vit C in the morning, it can help your sunscreen work more effectively.
Can you cycle on and off hydroquinone indefinitely to maintain an even skin tone? Does it prevent new pigmentation or just help with pigmentation that already exists? Thanks!
Yes Dr Idriss uses it on and off. It lightens old hyperpigmentation and also prevents new hyperpigmentation. I alternate it with azelaic acid and vitamin C. I use it for three months and then take one to two months off.
Thanks, Megan. I use #touchbeauty light therapy for over 8 months. It helped even out the skin tone and brighten the skin. The appearance of the dark spots is reducing!!
@@SarahHLeslie The brand name is #touchbeauty. I always use light therapy after removing makeup and cleansing the skin. Several minutes is finished. Then follow my daily skincare routine. Hope this gives you some ideas. :)
That helped me as well and the only one I learned about it from is the guy on Mad about Skin. Check him out if you like a lively, friendly video. He is not a dermatologist and doesn't pretend to be but give a look anyway 😅
I will admit, I have never heard any Dr. lay it all out like you just did! My Dermatologist hasn't made it this clear for me. I will make a few changes in my morning routine when layering the products you spoke of. Thank goodness I have only a few scattered brown spots on my hands, arms and face.
I'm loving Altruist Face Fluid spf50+ Organic Filters and Niacinimide . Differin has really helped me . I don't use high percentage Actives too and Sun Safety .
Good morning Dr Idriss and everyone ❤ It seems like Dr Idriss has read my mind 😄 (I have already added Alpha Arbutin to my Routine, can't wait to learn more)
Yess! It’s nice to find more Brazilians in her videos 🇧🇷 When she said: “vamos, vamos, vamos”, I got like 😍😍😍 She said just like a Brazilian would say. Perfect accent!
First of all, I am a big fan. Thank you for the flood of good reliable information 🥰 My skin is way better, following your advice. Thank you! Been meaning to ask you your opinion about facial yoga. Specially firming the eye area and getting rid of double chin. Does it work? Is it beneficial or is it damaging and counterproductive?
Another great video!! I always look forward to your advice. Has certainly helped me in my skincare journey so I thank you. P.S.. You have a great sense of style. Your shirts are always very pretty💜💜
Everything burns my eyes BUT recently I found a sunscreen which also has azelaic acid in it and doesn’t burn at all (it’s part of a hyper-pigmentation range) - Ducray Melascreen.
Thank you for this video and the other last one you did! Im Hispanic light skinned 33 turning 34 this year. I’ve had it since my 25’s I have 2 boys 10 & 11. This has me very depressed!! I have sooo many skin care products high end and cheaper and nothing works.. its to the point where I don’t want to go anywhere just to work and back home. I’ve also bought vitamins and 👎 btw you are sooo beautiful 💕
👋 thank you so much for another video on hyperpigmentation. I wanted to know what is the best way to combine all the ingredients that you have suggested pls? Is there an order or application or should we avoid mixing some of these pls?
Dr. Idriss, I’m assuming we can use all these ingredients together in a routine? How can we layer them properly for the best effect? And can all of these be used in a routine with tretinoin? Thanks 🤍
I swear you have made it so much easier to learn about skin when I don't get enough time for research and learn myself due to my studies now I just have to watch one video every Saturday. It's amazing how much I can learn from just one video
You’re fabulous!! Could you, would you please put those products in order of how to use for max benefit? Your suggestions are key for me. You’re why I got Hydroquinone and you’re more informed than my Dermatologist! She didn’t tell me Hydroquinone could not be used indefinitely.😳 I’m currently using Retin-A and just got the Hydroquinone. Would you please tell me how to use the Retin-A and the Hydroquinone together? Should I use azalaic acid as well? Or maybe during the 2-mo off period. I was overwhelmed by the many choices and not sure how to proceed. Thank you!!🙏♥️
I’m 66. Live in Fl. Grew up in the sun! I hate that my chest has so much sun damage. I think it’s too late for me so I try to encourage young girls to use sun protection!!
I'd love to hear you talk about skincare masks. I feel like they're so popular for "self-care" and for fun, but are they actually helpful? hurtful? are there any good ones? I'd love to know! I love your videos!
Just subscribed to your channel, and i think you're great! You're so straight up and love it! Your gestures are great! Thanks for the info ...... all the way from Canada
Hi!! Great video. I already incorporate most of these ingredients in my routine and I still have a lot of stubborn pigmentation. I've been reading a lot about the benefits of Silymarin and would like to integrate the ingredient into my routine, most articles cite the Skincuticials product, unfortunately that's wildly out of my budget, can you please recommend a few other products at a more accessible price point? Thank you!!!!
I have Psoriasis and I find it so difficult to weigh my options. What is your opinion on Cortisol vs light-therapy. I definitely prefer light-therapy as the Psoriasis fades faster, but I’m scared of both of my options when it comes to longterm effects. Also I absolutely love your videos, they are so incredibly informative! xx
Haha i think the same with the mask. I even use it in my car people look at me like im dumb but I have melasma mustache and on my cheeks. I dont care regardless.
Can you use azelaic acid for sunspot ( I think you mentioned previously there was a different mechanism for it for melasma ? Can you spot treat dark spot with hydroquinone instead of the whole face?
Thank you again for sharing your knowledge. I'm completely bummed I found you after I moved out of NY. I made a dermatology appointment. I had to wait 6 months, so I used Agency to get a tretinoin formula and a hydroquinone formula. Many blessings to you and yours. 💖💖💖

I really like the Inkey List's Alpha Arbutin. Such a help with my PIH! I liked their azelaic acid too before they discontinued it. 😑
Please make a great sunscreen that doesn’t burn my eyes off
Everything burns my eyes BUT recently I found a sunscreen which also has azelaic acid in it and doesn’t burn at all (it’s part of a hyper-pigmentation range) - Ducray Melascreen.
Thank you for this video and the other last one you did! Im Hispanic light skinned 33 turning 34 this year. I’ve had it since my 25’s I have 2 boys 10 & 11. This has me very depressed!! I have sooo many skin care products high end and cheaper and nothing works.. its to the point where I don’t want to go anywhere just to work and back home. I’ve also bought vitamins and 👎 btw you are sooo beautiful 💕
👋 thank you so much for another video on hyperpigmentation. I wanted to know what is the best way to combine all the ingredients that you have suggested pls? Is there an order or application or should we avoid mixing some of these pls?
Pls do some videos regarding hair loss and what's best.... Not just skin
My next issue are dark spots! Thank you!!!
You are so very helpful! Love your channel and content! Thank you ❤
Dr. Idriss, I’m assuming we can use all these ingredients together in a routine? How can we layer them properly for the best effect? And can all of these be used in a routine with tretinoin? Thanks 🤍
I swear you have made it so much easier to learn about skin when I don't get enough time for research and learn myself due to my studies now I just have to watch one video every Saturday. It's amazing how much I can learn from just one video
Japanese sunscreen Canmake in clear is amazing PA++++ SPF 50 and doesn’t burn the eyes 😊
name of brand
You’re fabulous!! Could you, would you please put those products in order of how to use for max benefit?
Your suggestions are key for me. You’re why I got Hydroquinone and you’re more informed than my Dermatologist! She didn’t tell me Hydroquinone could not be used indefinitely.😳
I’m currently using Retin-A and just got the Hydroquinone. Would you please tell me how to use the Retin-A and the Hydroquinone together?
Should I use azalaic acid as well? Or maybe during the 2-mo off period.
I was overwhelmed by the many choices and not sure how to proceed. Thank you!!🙏♥️
Dr. Idriss, it would make my life if you pulled a Huda Beauty and did a video in Arabic! Awesome video, thank youuuuu for this 💖
I’m 66. Live in Fl. Grew up in the sun! I hate that my chest has so much sun damage. I think it’s too late for me so I try to encourage young girls to use sun protection!!
I'd love to hear you talk about skincare masks. I feel like they're so popular for "self-care" and for fun, but are they actually helpful? hurtful? are there any good ones? I'd love to know! I love your videos!
Needed this ❤✨
Please make video about “Facial hair removal methods” ❤
Just subscribed to your channel, and i think you're great! You're so straight up and love it! Your gestures are great! Thanks for the info ...... all the way from Canada
Thank you so much for all the skin care education.
Can you also do a video on how to layer the products mentioned?
Thanks!
@drshereene thank you .May you please advise on layering of this products .Regards
Thank you! An especially helpful video.
How do you feel about taking Cod Liver Oil? I found it to be AMAZING for my skin! Vitamin A from the inside out!
So many products but which to use? Layers them, still confused
Oh if you’re recently obsessed with the Korean sunscreens, you should try the Japanese ones… even better. I’ve been using them for 15 years.
brand sunscreen
Do you recommend using vitamin c & hydroquinone in the morning?
We so appreciate you, giving us your time and ❤️ wisdom. I added Vit C. and have noticed a difference 💝💝💝
Hi!! Great video. I already incorporate most of these ingredients in my routine and I still have a lot of stubborn pigmentation. I've been reading a lot about the benefits of Silymarin and would like to integrate the ingredient into my routine, most articles cite the Skincuticials product, unfortunately that's wildly out of my budget, can you please recommend a few other products at a more accessible price point? Thank you!!!!
appreciate this a lot and more about tranexamic acid plse', especially its interactions with other ingredients, sooo much love
Dr do you recommend the heliocare capsule? Not has a sunscreen… just to help to prevent the damage from the sun
Thank you very much. I love your videos! I love your approach.
Eu estou amando os seus vídeos! Thank you so much 🇧🇷
I have Psoriasis and I find it so difficult to weigh my options. What is your opinion on Cortisol vs light-therapy. I definitely prefer light-therapy as the Psoriasis fades faster, but I’m scared of both of my options when it comes to longterm effects.
Also I absolutely love your videos, they are so incredibly informative! xx
Beautiful, thank you! Timeless vitamin C is wonderful indeed. I’ll try to get the Korean sun screen
Excellent advice. Thank you so much!
Thank you for the great tips and products 💕
I love this video, thanks Dr Sheree
Can you name some products that are safe in pregnancy for melasma and hyperpigmentation please?? ❤️
Another + reason for wearing a mask, helps with sun protection. 😌
Sunblock
Then add a wide brim straw hat.
Haha i think the same with the mask. I even use it in my car people look at me like im dumb but I have melasma mustache and on my cheeks. I dont care regardless.
I love your videos. My favourite Dermatologist! 😍 ❤️
Can you use azelaic acid for sunspot ( I think you mentioned previously there was a different mechanism for it for melasma ?
Can you spot treat dark spot with hydroquinone instead of the whole face?
Would like to hear your thoughts on the eye area though. Seems like nobody talks about that. Are all the ingredients you mentioned safe for that area?
Loving your videos and content! Would love to learn tips for face freckles essentials :)
I can binge watch your channel everyday
@Text me on Telegram @Giveawayshortlist I'm happy that you replied. Thank you
Thank you again for sharing your knowledge. I'm completely bummed I found you after I moved out of NY. I made a dermatology appointment. I had to wait 6 months, so I used Agency to get a tretinoin formula and a hydroquinone formula.
Many blessings to you and yours. 💖💖💖
Getting my Notebook and pens ready!!^^
