I love kojic acid. I discovered it 6 years ago and bought the soap at a Filipino Store. Used it every 3rd day and let it sit on my skin for a couple of minutes before I washed it off. It took about 4-6 months to see results but the results were great. Still use it to this day.
I use kojid acid kojid san zero pigment light soap full body wash daily with palmer cocao butter body lotion + suncream all year round. Since using this soap I look younger, no pigmentation or discolouration. I get so much compliments about how healthy my skin looks like.
Almost 20-ish years ago, right after high school, I wanted to fade my post-acne dark marks (PIH). And after research online on some problematic websites, I found some Kojic Acid soaps. Used them consistently over idk how long, and my PIH cleared up! I loved them so much. I only semi-recently started incorporating it into my routine again. So good for dark spots.
@@erionafrancescasherifi4492 I think I used them whenever I showered, so both I think. I would leave it on for a few minutes, then wash it off. When I used them again more recently, I only used it at night but also left it on for a few minutes before washing it off, but increasing the length of time I left it on (before washing it off) as time went on (30 seconds the first few times, then 1 minute, and so on. Definitely use sunscreen religiously, though. Your skin will be super sensitive to the sun.
Hi Dr. Shereene I live in Australia and it was a bitter cold winter. I have been so sick this year I got a disease called Colitis and it has been a a nightmare. I have seen so many specialists and they are still doing ongoing tests so I have very dehydrated skin as I have up to forty bowel movements a day I had to give up my job and life has been difficult. But I want to tell you I look forward to your lovely face and you cheer me up you have given me some wonderful advice for a lady in her early sixties and I just want to say thank you for teaching this old lady to make the best skin I have. God bless you and your gorgeous hubby and beautiful kids.🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹👏
I started using the La Roche Posay Glycolic about a month ago thanks to Dr Idriss rec in a previous video. I am happy with it. I use it 3 times a week. I do it 3 times in a row or else I forget. It feels good on my (mostly normal) skin. Happy to know I am getting the kojic acid in it already! Good luck with your launch. This is THE ONLY skin care launch I’ve ever followed in my life. Cheers.
I personally wouldn’t but I don’t use trentinoin. I would let the trentinoin do what it does and let it be undisturbed by any other exfoliants. It is a strong active. I use the milder retynaldehyde. But if you wanna use any glycolic acid while also using trentinoin thats definitely a good question for a dermatologist.
When I was in high school, I wanted to go to medical school, but did a complete 180 and ended up going into labor relations instead (mostly because I psyched myself out). I really fell out of love with the field and withdrew from the Master's program I was in. I'm 28 now and have been really thinking about going for it. I started taking some med school pre-reqs I didn't take in undergrad and shadowing PA's and Doctors in the ER. Hearing your stories and seeing you and other physicians so passionate about educating and helping others is a big reason that has inspired me to really consider chasing that old dream. It would be nice to hear any thoughts or advice you may have on people wanting to pursue medical school later in life or as a career change. I'm a bit concerned because my GPA in undergrad wasn't bad, but also wasn't quite to the level most medical programs would want because I didn't take school as seriously when I started. Also super excited for you in launching your line and hoping for a smooth launch!
Just do it. Pursue that dream, diggedly, unflinchingly, even on a part-time basis if need be. Being older gives you a perspective on hard work, on priorities, that the younger you did not possess. Not to mention the wisdom you now possess to work hard for your goals. Eventually, it'll take you across the finish line, all that hard work. And once you're finished, believe me, no one will care that you started later than others in your graduating class, especially if you are one of the top students. 😉
Hi there! Go for it if it’s what your whole being wants! I was 28 when I started med school. 1 year after still here! It’s a rocky road, there’s crying and self-doubt but at the end of the day I thank myself because I always make it. Hope you’re having a good day😊
@@TosaNewsense Thank you so much for the encouragement I feel like being a bit older is going to be my edge. I just have to nail that personal statement lol.
Maelove has a new serum called Fade Away with kojic acid, alpha arbutin, licorice root extract, and a bevy of antioxidant botanicals--without any AHAs to worry about. Love for you to review it!
@@lindakoberna3465 I actually did end up trying it. Got through almost an entire bottle with no issues--even bought another!--but ended up with sensitized skin. I think there's just too many strong ingredients in there for my skin. Glad it's working for you! I still have the entire unopened bottle. I'd give it to you if you were close! LOL
When I was in college, Kojic acid was the hype and still is in the Philippines. So I tried using a Kojic acid soap but ended up having fresh wounds after I used it. After that, I didn't even bother using Kojic acid soap with it since it resulted in that horrible experience. But after watching this, I feel like I need to incorporate Kojic acid soap but I do need to find the one that has a better formulation.
The Kojic Acid Soaps work but its too harsh and drying for most people, but your best bet would be the brand names Kojie-San or the Belo brand as they formulate their bar soaps with other ingredients that would help lessen the irritation from the kojic acid - as oppose to the off brand soaps sold for cheap - the off brand ones also work but theres a higher risk of irritation, especially when the bar soaps here in the PH doesnt disclose the concentration/percentage of the kojic acid in the product. And you will have to incorporate using the kojic soap slowly until your skin can better tolerate it. Best to start using the soap once a day every other day, until you can use it once daily, and progress from there. On the other hand youre far better off using the recommendations on this video as opposed to the bar soaps as Kojic Acid works better as a leave-on product rather than as a wash-off product. You could be alot more consistent with a wash off product tho. As for wash off products, you'll also have to the soap/suds stay on your skin about 5-10 minutes before rinsing for best results, but ofcourse leaving it on the skin in serum, toner, or cream form is still a better option provided that you'll be consistent with it. And ofc pair it with a good moisturizer and sunscreen. Kojic acid's great !
This woman is just great!!! I feel like I'm back in school... waiting for my favourite teacher with a new topic!!! 😃😃😃😃... I can sit quietly and listen to every word she's saying!!! 😃😃😃 The only thing it makes me jump out of my chair is when she all of the sudden.. SLAMS the table!! 😂😂.. .. Anyway, love the content!!! Thanks Dr. Shereen 👍👍
I learn so much from you marvellous Dr I. I threw out and shun all products with hyaluronic acid and the cheaper sister product when you taught HOW it draws moisture from our own dermis. I do very little intervention on my skin, but I'm grateful for this education.
I love that you tell us if a product has a noxious scent. I will be returning La Roche-Posay Glycolic B5 since I am sensitive to strong scents. It also has denatured alcohol. I should read the ingredients more thoroughly online before I purchase, but often, I don't even know what all the ingredients mean and so my brain just glosses over all the ingredients. Thanks again for all your videos!
I was literally thinking of incorporating Kojic Acid into my skincare routine and wanted some research prior to that, and here, my favourite derm reads my mind!!! 😊 Thank you, Dr. Shereene Idriss ❤❤❤❤
Thank Again! I am on the crusade against Melasma! Finally, got my hands on Azelaic 15%. Always, looking for things to do on my break from Hydroquone! Thank you, thank you!! 🥰
South Louisiana native and I feel like we have summer till Christmas sometimes. Although there are times it feels like fall…for a day maybe two then it goes back to 90°. 🤣 I think I would like to incorporate Kojic Acid into my routine. I love being a skin nerd and learning all you teach. Thank you for always making it understandable.
@@joann.5041 it does have a beauty all its own i think. this is true imho anyway. but the air is thick, sultry and the sun increasingly unforgiving. estheticians have a tricky line to toe balancing resurfacing and protection. one doesnt want to poke the bear and trigger various sun damage, hyperpigment etc. very tricky indeed. but its how we do!
@@joann.5041 it may be pretty, but it’s hot and beyond muggy. It’s September and depending if you are south or New Orleans or north the mornings may feel nice, come 11am you are sweating in places that are not nice. 😫🤣
Dr. Shereene Can you please do a video about your favorite face masks for each skin type? They're a fun way to pamper yourself when you have time. If they're useless that'd be great to know too! 🙏🏻
Love your channel Dr. Idriss! Here are two azelaic acid products that do not pill. 1) Glytone Enhance Brightening Comlex - 12% az acid 2) Cos De Baha AZ - it is 10% (or claims to be) and feels like a slippery serum. A bit tacky after application, but no pilling and can be layered easily!
I’m gonna keep it real, I always love the product recommendations BUT I’m saving all money for when your line drops and I can get my hands on alllll the things!!! Hehehehe
Bonjour Shereene, merci beaucoup 😊. J’adore ta chaîne et toute l’information partagée. Je suis au Québec et je déteste aussi la chaleur!! Tu es une des seules qui parlent des soins pour l’hiver, très appréciée car ma peau est très affectée par le froid et le temps plus sec. Take good care 😘
I found your videos recently and they've been soooooo helpful to me! I signed up for the newsletter already. I'm so excited! Thank you Dr. Shereene! 😊😊
Another informative video. Thanks for your time and energy. You have inspired me to be more consistent in my skincare routine. That is a key element in feeling better about my appearance.
Pleeeese can you make a video about hypo pigmentation? Everyone always talks about hyperpigmentation, but what about skincare for people with vitiligo for example? It would be wonderful to have a video on this topic!
I really really like your videos. They are so knowledgeable and interesting. I'd love if you talk about skin that is sensitive+acne prone. Also, please review the simple skincare. Lots of respect
can you do a future video on the topic of topical Clindamycin, what it is exactly and how to incorporate it into a routine without f-ing up your face in the process? 😂 I’m so confused on how to use it, how long to use it, since it is an antibiotic and can make the bacteria on your skin immune over time 🦠 my derm never went into detail about what Clindamycin is and what can possibly happen if I use it for a long time. Any thoughts? 💭 Thanks for another really informative video! I love that you go in depth, down to the root of how the ingredient came about!
What do you think about the Kojic acid/turmeric pads? I was oooking specifically for your thoughts on these pads before purchasing. I’ve followed some of your recommendations and my skin really has improved quite a bit. So, I feel more trusting when it comes to your channel.
Love your videos. A video I would absolutely love to see is recommendations and tips for every age groups. What I should be doing in my twenties, thirties, etc. Thank you!!!
They reformulated Faded and now it has fragrance :(, I think I would rather take the stink. They also removed the coconut ingredient which is potentially good for many users . Thanks for your awesome vids!
Maria camila Moreno: Persistent use of coconut oil over time on the face has been linked to an increase in contact dermatitis, that's why it is not preferred in skin care. There are many other ingredients that get less press that are better.
Noooo Summer is not over for me! I live in bloody Canada.. I'm a Brit and seen enough bad weather in my life!!!! Off to our Mexican second home in November.. btw love your channel amiga x
Thank you so much for the time you take to introduce us to scientific facts about skincare!! It is super informative and helpful for us, who are not derms!! Merci!
Dr. Idriss, have you tried Peter Thomas Roth Niacinamide Discoloration treatment? It has all of the ingredients you like a lot, which is why I got it, it’s expensive but it works really well for me! I use it at night a few times a week and it works as good as my Revision C-correcting complex that I use during the day. So man when I use them both in the same day my skin is on cloud 9 and I can’t stop staring at it!
I’m going to try that PTR. I’ve thought about it but when you said the part about not being able to stop looking at your skin, I totally cracked up! 😂💕 I’ve been using Topicals Faded for 8 months and I have your same reaction. 😳 It’s excellent making my skin really clear. I also get great results from Touch Bright and Clear. Both work terrifically! Be prepared for a mild sulfur smell from Faded (it dissipates after a few minutes but now I actually like it)…and be aware the Touch is a kinda gross green color but it disappears on the skin. 😄☮️🌸💜

I love your videos! ❤ I just found you a few weeks ago and have binged all your videos 😀 Would you consider doing a video on your favourite cruelty free / vegan skincare products? Thank you for sharing your knowledge in such a refreshing and entertaining way 🥰
Wonderful information as always! I went to a new derm here in Paris and she was really impressed with my skincare routine. I owe that to you Shereene. I enjoy your videos so much and I learn a lot. My skin looks much better since I follow your advice. Now, the question is: can you elaborate on treatments with kojic acid in your practice. I am supposed to get a treatment with my derm that will applie kojic acid deeper into my skin to treat the dark spots from sun and I wanted to know a bit more about that?
Hello! I share your love of fall - bring it on! I hope your skincare line is accessible in Canada. :) What light coloured eyeshadow do you use on your eyelids please?
Loved the video Dr Idriss, I can’t agree more with you regarding the dropper packaging, maybe in your skin-line you can create two versions of packaging for skin brightening: one as a pump and the other as a roll-on (similar to deodorants). The second for the purpose of easy application in other areas of the body, for example underarms or groin. Just a thought 💭 I’ve been looking for something like that, and everything out there is just a bar soap, cream, or serum in pump/dropper ☹️
💜💜💜💜 I'd love to try kojic acid! I would also really appreciate a deep dive in all YOUR personal care when it comes to eye contour.... Your eyes are just FLAWLESS!!! How does she do it!!!??? We all wanna know!!

@@RabbitTeethWB-SG20 Kojie San is one of the known better ones.
With that long of a time span it’s hard to know if a skin product was actually the reason for skin improvements
Wow. I m thinking of starting kojic acid journey. And benzoyl journey. And everything. For 1 year.
Kojic Acid:
Antioxidant
Skin brightner
Antimicrobial - Reduces acne
Anti agent benefits - Helps w hyperpigmentation
I use kojid acid kojid san zero pigment light soap full body wash daily with palmer cocao butter body lotion + suncream all year round. Since using this soap I look younger, no pigmentation or discolouration.
I get so much compliments about how healthy my skin looks like.
And do u use the same soup for bikini area or it's not possible ?
It's been two weeks using it, I don't see any results....

They reformulated Faded and now it has fragrance :(, I think I would rather take the stink. They also removed the coconut ingredient which is potentially good for many users . Thanks for your awesome vids!
I thought the new ingredient is more so a stabilizer that helps mask the natural scent without adding any kind of perfumey irritating smell.
Maria camila Moreno: Persistent use of coconut oil over time on the face has been linked to an increase in contact dermatitis, that's why it is not preferred in skin care. There are many other ingredients that get less press that are better.
FADED, all in one, works wonders! 🙌
Did you get results?
@@MP-hw6sx Yes. I’ve used Kojic Acid and FADED.
I find you extremely adorable. Also your videos are informative
Good morning Dr Idriss! Happy weekend!☀️💛
Noooo Summer is not over for me! I live in bloody Canada.. I'm a Brit and seen enough bad weather in my life!!!! Off to our Mexican second home in November.. btw love your channel amiga x
Thank you so much for the time you take to introduce us to scientific facts about skincare!! It is super informative and helpful for us, who are not derms!! Merci!
Dr. Idriss, have you tried Peter Thomas Roth Niacinamide Discoloration treatment? It has all of the ingredients you like a lot, which is why I got it, it’s expensive but it works really well for me! I use it at night a few times a week and it works as good as my Revision C-correcting complex that I use during the day. So man when I use them both in the same day my skin is on cloud 9 and I can’t stop staring at it!
I’m going to try that PTR. I’ve thought about it but when you said the part about not being able to stop looking at your skin, I totally cracked up! 😂💕 I’ve been using Topicals Faded for 8 months and I have your same reaction. 😳 It’s excellent making my skin really clear. I also get great results from Touch Bright and Clear. Both work terrifically! Be prepared for a mild sulfur smell from Faded (it dissipates after a few minutes but now I actually like it)…and be aware the Touch is a kinda gross green color but it disappears on the skin. 😄☮️🌸💜
Love your videos. Can you please do a video on Nasolabial folds and treating the dry fine lines in those areas in general and as the climate gets drier.

Yay can’t wait for the newsletter!!!
Great video and information Dr. Idriss! Thank you for sharing your knowledge about the wonders of kojic acid with the world!
Topicals Faded is amazing. I'm on my third tube.
Hii Sheerene! Please do a video on fermented ingredients in Korean skincare such as bilfida, etc. Are they worth it?
Good Luck on your product launch!
A. I love your videos. Obsessed B. Have you done a video on Korean skin care I’ve been trying a lot of things out but id love to know your favorites or thoughts.
Thanks doc!
Enlighten us Doctor Shereene !!!!
Oh my goodness! I am so stoked for your skincare line!! 😁
Yes, this was very informative Dr. Idris! 😘👌🏽 Chef's kiss!
❤️ Maddy
I just feel lucky and safe I’m from New York and I know she is here !
I love your videos! ❤ I just found you a few weeks ago and have binged all your videos 😀 Would you consider doing a video on your favourite cruelty free / vegan skincare products? Thank you for sharing your knowledge in such a refreshing and entertaining way 🥰
Your skin looks amazing!!!
Wonderful information as always! I went to a new derm here in Paris and she was really impressed with my skincare routine. I owe that to you Shereene. I enjoy your videos so much and I learn a lot. My skin looks much better since I follow your advice. Now, the question is: can you elaborate on treatments with kojic acid in your practice. I am supposed to get a treatment with my derm that will applie kojic acid deeper into my skin to treat the dark spots from sun and I wanted to know a bit more about that?
a class on psoriasis please!
I enjoy listening to your videos you really explain well Dr.
Shereen! I loved this video and your channel! Just signed up and can’t wait for your launch ❤️
Hello! I share your love of fall - bring it on! I hope your skincare line is accessible in Canada. :) What light coloured eyeshadow do you use on your eyelids please?
Loved the video Dr Idriss, I can’t agree more with you regarding the dropper packaging, maybe in your skin-line you can create two versions of packaging for skin brightening: one as a pump and the other as a roll-on (similar to deodorants). The second for the purpose of easy application in other areas of the body, for example underarms or groin. Just a thought 💭
I’ve been looking for something like that, and everything out there is just a bar soap, cream, or serum in pump/dropper ☹️
please do a video only for hydroquinone
Congratulations for what is coming. I'm sure it will be great 😃
Thank you! Im currently dealing with a lot of post inflamatory hyperpigmentation
The only reason I ever want to visit New York is to make an appointment with this woman. So much love and inspiration 🫶🏽
Lets get intimate are my fav videos on this channel❤
Facetheory Azelaic acid 10% (US) and 15% (UK) doesn’t pill in my experience. You can buy UK version and have it shipped to US.
This is a GREAT one! I order from the UK site to get 15% concentration and then have it shipped to the US. It's amazing!
So excited for you 🎉 & I can’t wait to try out your skincare products 😊 ❤
Thank you for this awesome video! Always so helpful! What do you think about the ME LINE products?
as someone from the Philippines where kojic soaps are everywhere, i can attest to how effective kojic acid is for brightening/whitening
