Love how straight to the point you are, much easier to listen to and remember when shopping around for products that help my skin type. Thank you so much!
Side note, I use Vichy Normaderm salicylic cleanser absolutely love! And then also use the normaderm salicylic lotion, it helped a lot with my acne from wearing a mask
I could listen to you talk all day your voice is so soothing. I am a budding FM resident learning as much derm as I can to help my patients. Thanks for these videos.
Dr. Idriss, you have been a huge influence in me getting my skin together. I am forever thankful. If I could ever get to NY, you will be on my list of people to see. Blessings to you!!
I'm sitting in my office with my skin products next to me, searching Dr. Idriss videos to get her take - since she clearly knows her stuff and tells it as it is. I am so glad to get her thoughts on my favourite products and to learn which ones may not be worth the step. I love my Paula's Choice 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant. I have combination skin, and I just love the results I get from regular use of this product! Glad that she recommends it as well.
The inkey list PHA “toner” is amaaaaazing for us sensitive congested skin girls!! And it’s super affordable i recommend to everyone! I use it nightly and it’s changed my skins texture and moisture!
I forgot her name, but she's a skincare youtuber and uses "well-aging" which I like better than anti-aging. It's a natural thing to age, so it'd be weird not to.
Hi Dr. Idriss, thank you so much for the video. Very informative! I particularly love how you don't necessarily like the term 'anti-aging'. Before moving to the private sector, I was a Neuroscience Researcher focusing on mathematical modeling of gerontology. And in my lab, we like to use the term 'aging gracefully'. Because aging is a normal process. I take care of my skin with life style and skin care products that allow my skin to age gracefully :)
Lots of love from Madagascar Dr. Idriss! None of those products available here, but still your videos are sooooo informative (especially after being confused by all the other ideas on acids on youtube)! 😊
Omg I went to the doctors once to find out about my arm bumps and he said just to moisturise (even though I do) and I think it may be the keratosis pilaris you mentioned (he is a great doctor though). Defiantly going to give the Salicylic Acid a go. Thank you for all the precious information. Love your videos!!
Ayyyy - I’m first . I watched ur live last night and loved it!! I love u so much!! Merry Christmas to u and ur fam!! Best wishes from London! Pls do a vid on erythema acne scars - it’s not spoken about too much! Thank u !!!!
Thank you so much for this series! I've heard of these acids, but never fully understood what/how they worked. Would you be able to include your thoughts on "probiotics" in skincare such as the brand Tula in another video sometime? Thanks again and happy holidays!
I am so in love you. Holly molly 😂😂 could you also please talk in one of your videos about beauty supplements? I have read research, but I am not trained in medicine and have no idea what they actually do!
Thank you so much for the video, really informative and help me get a better understanding about the products I’m currently using! I didn’t really know anything previously about PHA but I think it would suit my skin better. I’ve watched all your skincare videos and appreciate you taking the time to make them! I’ve learnt so much from you and had no idea that 10% was too much niacinamide especially when the ordinary’s serum was so hyped up.. just goes to show that the people recommending these products don’t really know what they’re talking about.
Glasses look great on you but when you took them off...... HELLOOO 😍 your eyes!!! Your aging is GOALS. 😩 what you do is soooo natural!!!! You’re so pretty! 😍
Hi! I saw this video a couple of weeks ago and For the past week or so, I’ve been using Augustinus Bader’s Essence and Face Cream, and my face has never felt softer! Your advice is so very appreciated!
the biggest thank you to you. i love your very informative vids 😍 i feel like i have more confidence in the skin products i buy now cuz i’m more aware of the ingredients, what they are/do and how to use them for my own skin !! ✨u da best
And Then i Met You Birch Milk Toner - has Glutonolactone! and Squalane and glycolic and lactic ! might sound like a huge cocktail but there's not much in it - so if you use it daily is super effective but gentle! I do want to know if you agree tho!
In your opinion, if you’re using something as gentle as a PHA, is it recommended to use everyday if tolerated? Or is it better to do every other day for optimal results?
Love Paula's choice. Neutrogena the worst i think I dont remember the last time I used, so irritated for my skin over drying and horrible ingredients. I'm loving Farmacy product amazing and their BHa toner super good
What about Kojic acid? Not as popular as other acid sisters seems like, besides being used for hyperpigmentation, and , this is off the topic but, is CoQ10 serum any good as a topical antioxidant? Hardly anyone mentions about it 🤷♀️
Thank you for your Videos ❤️. I heard like more than 25 years ago for acids - aha at that time ... and it‘s amazing... I love neostrata brand, they have all kinds...
Sensitive, oily, acne prone skin here! - 30s : My skin is so sensitive, it doesn't tolerate glycolic (I get rashes, pimples, itchiness) or salicylic acid (breaks me out ?!), no fruit extracts either. I can luckily use sparingly the ordinary 5% lactic acid. How can I battle the blackheads? Shall I try I'll try the mandelic acid?
I watched the video entirely but I still have a doubt... I am using salicylic acid facewash (Minimalist) ...can I use Minimalist PHA toner? Help please 😢 I have oily, acne prone sensitive skin 😢
Hi dr sheerene. May i know if i can use pha every single day? I have neostrata cleanser and the pha bionic cream. Hope you'll answer this. We love you. From Philippines❤️🇵🇭
Hello Dr. Idriss🙂I am watching your channel from Turkey and most of the products you list are unavailable here.Can you do a review on the AHA/BHA containing products of Youth To The People and The Inkey List?It would be amazing for the sake of my budget.Thank you in advance🙃I absolutely adore your videos😄
I’ve watched a video that says salicylic acid use makes your skin dependent on the exfoliation that it provides and when you stop using it, your skin misses it, and kind of has a difficult time exfoliating itself when use is stopped cold turkey. Is this true? Thoughts?
@@shereeneidriss hi Shereene! I heard it from Kenna, she has a UA-cam channel and she said it in one of her vids (title - why I don’t use salicylic acid, or something like that)
Hey Dr. Shereen, Two off topic inquiries please : 1-can i patch test a facial product on the skin of my knee fold? "I can not unwash my face for 48 hours!" 2-what's the minimum effective contact time for leave on treatments please?! "I'm Muslim, hence you probably know that my lifestyle requires multiple washes throughout the day (Wudu')" (P. S. Don't worry I moisturizer in between like a good boy! 😃)
For testing - I usually recommend ur mid back and leave it on under occlusion, like a Bandaid for 48 hours then wash off. After that u see if u have any residual reaction up to 24-36 hours
@@shereeneidriss oh thanks a lot.. That doesn't disturb my lifestyle at all and makes things way easier.. So thanks 🥰!! As for my 2nd inquiry please "if OK a product works for me now (e.g. a serum), what's the minimum contact time should I leave if I have to have wash afterwards?! TIA 🌹
Just started watching your videos recently, and enjoy them very much. I used to do skincare as my profession and stopped after moving, etc.. Just wanted to note I have extremely sensitive skin, that I can get pink face from just being in a hot area inside my home, stove when cooking or warm shower/washing my face-and wanted to add I found a product with PHA. Burt’s Bees- liquid exfoliant has AHA, BHA and PHA I’ve used for a week and see and feel my skin more tolerant Hope you can check this out!
I like Paula's Choice and used them for yes, but they have gotten to be too rich for my budget (their SA lotion is now almost $40) I liked your Recommend I on for the Neutrogena wash, left on 5 min. I use a combo SA and Glycolic pads that I buy on Amazon.
I use pha on my cheeks and a bha on my t-zone once a week. Maybe that's not enough, but I'm also sensitive and my prescription retinoid makes me think I don't need much exfoliation.
I was using deferin for the past months and started using the Estée Lauder serum because of which I broke out horribly. In order to get rid of my acne I started using neutrogen salicylic acid face wash and my skin turned out horribly inflamed, red, dry, swollen and bumpy. I don’t know what to do anymore. I’m tired of trying skin cares !!
Thank you for these videos!! Glad i didn't use any products that contain these acids in the morning. Going out in the sun in India is no joke. I purchased the Cosrx AHA/BHA clarifying treatment Toner last month. Would love your thoughts on it. It's the first time I've used a chemical exfoliant. It's supposed to be gentle but my skin did purge a little because I used it on 3 alternate days in a week. Didn't use until a week later, no break out since.
the ordinary salicilic acid 2% serum is greag in my opinion. I never had acne but I still used it snd my skin still looked better! It made me look like I just got a facial treatment. theprice is around 5/6 euro's so its worth it to try. I used it like a mask, I put it on at night and I'll sleep with ir or wash it off after an hour, it doesn't matter is always works. and I definately use jt before an event. you'll look radiant!
Hello, Dr Idriss! I am using the Biologique Recherche Lotion P50 and just read the ingredients list after watching your asids videos - seems like it is more of BHA PHA acid! Am I right?
Hi, I have been following you for a while now. Love the videos but mostly they are focused around facial skin and beauty treatments. Can you plz do a video about seborrheic dermatitis. A lot of people suffer from dandruff etc and keep trying shampoos etc but often the skin under all that hair needs some attention. Look forward to it. Thanks. Ps: love your PJs. Do share where you get them from. 🙂
I wish u posted this earlier! I have the Neutrogena salicylic acid wash and I didn't know how to use it.. so it didn't work for my pores. (I just used it as a cleanser) So I now ordered the Paula's Choice one, and it's probably going to be a waste of money since I could've just used it ur way with the Neutrogena and didn't need to buy the Paula's Choice one. I have used the Neutrogena one overnight on dry skin tho and it didn't really do anything... My skin is used to 2% salicylic acid (I've used it for some months now) so the Paula's Choice 2% salicylic acid one will probably not do anything too, knowing all the 2% salicylic acid products I've used didn't work at all for my pores. Do u think the Paula's Choice one will work (regarding this)? Or is there something else I can use for my skin? I don't want to buy too many products so I can buy maybe 1-2 affordable ones.
Please do myth vs fact series about these acids . I have heard that glycolic acid can destroy your stratum corneum that protects you from environmental damage . I can just watch you watch you and watch you ....you are so damn beautiful derm.....so yeah make longer videos so that i can watch you more ...
I'm so surprised how popular that Neutrogena wash is. I tried it about a year ago, used it 3 times over I think 2 days. I ended up with such a bad chemical burn - beet red skin that was unbearably itchy and burned when I touched it, plus my eyes swelled as if I was stung by bees! I researched the product after the fact and found HUNDREDS of the same review. I always thought I had oily skin but have recently learned I lean more towards combination. Are there any ingredients to definitely avoid for sensitive skin? I'm so nervous to try new chemical exfoliants now when I don't know how I'll react.
Hi doctor love your channel... please review the innisfree line (now on Sephora I think) - I’ve actively used Sakura line, and it’s more effective than the green tea line for my allergies... 2 months in, it worked for my weird melasma...
I have a question.. does PHA makes your skin purge? I just started to use Pha toner, and it kinda gives me a red pimples ( not whitehead, it doesnt have much pus). I cant find an answer 😩
I’ve been using (at night) the salicylic acid cleanser from cerave, followed by glycolic acid from L’Oréal then vit c and moisturizer. Is it ok to use 2 acids? It hasn’t irritated my skin and has very much improved the skin texture and smoothness of my face..? Just wondering if this combination will eventually bite me in the butt and start to irritate etc. been doing this routine for about 3 weeks without issues
I've always wondered. Can I combine a bha/aha toner once or twice a week along with my lotion that contains 2% salycilic acid. Or is that too many exfoliants on my face at once ?
It can start to border on overdoing it in my opinion- understanding what’s in which product will give you a better understanding of how to navigate skincare
Thanks for the great content! Neostrata makes a great PHA cream (12% PHA) and a PHA Lotion (15% PHA) and is currently having a 25% off site-wide sale. I love their PHA products! Neutrogena makes a PHA cleanser called Stubborn Texture Acne Cleanser for Textured Skin that I love. It's inexpensive, effective, and gentle for exfoliating.
Hello dr shereene. I am glad to find you on UA-cam. Thanks for your skin educative talks.. clear and informative. I would like to know skin regime during breastfeeding as lactating mother I find very less time to skincare routines. Are AHA’s can be directly followed by a moisturizer ? If I remember properly , you mentioned in earlier video retinoids not recommended during pregnancy/breastfeeding?

what should you do if you have sensitive (drier skin)... but you are noticing clogged pores around nose and on cheeks?

Have you tried Neutrogena's 'Acne Proofing Gel Cleanser'? Still 2% salicylic acid, but it uses a gentler blend of surfactants.
Thank you for the Ideas on leaving it on skin🤩
Novexpert has two peelings with PHA :)
Are exfoliating acids effective in cream forms ? or is it better to buy a serum. I was afraid that in cream it has less effect no ?
thank you
How often should we use acids? (oily, sensitive, acne filled skin but dehydrated too)
Can the salycilic acid used topically have the same effect on the liver as the aspirin?

Look forward to it. Thanks.
Ps: love your PJs. Do share where you get them from. 🙂
I wish u posted this earlier! I have the Neutrogena salicylic acid wash and I didn't know how to use it.. so it didn't work for my pores. (I just used it as a cleanser) So I now ordered the Paula's Choice one, and it's probably going to be a waste of money since I could've just used it ur way with the Neutrogena and didn't need to buy the Paula's Choice one.
I have used the Neutrogena one overnight on dry skin tho and it didn't really do anything... My skin is used to 2% salicylic acid (I've used it for some months now) so the Paula's Choice 2% salicylic acid one will probably not do anything too, knowing all the 2% salicylic acid products I've used didn't work at all for my pores.
Do u think the Paula's Choice one will work (regarding this)? Or is there something else I can use for my skin? I don't want to buy too many products so I can buy maybe 1-2 affordable ones.
Hi Dr Shireen. For my salicylic acid facial cleanser, should I leave it on for 5 minutes when I wash my face everyday? 🤭
If ur especially oily and acne prone, I would do try that at night after taking ur makeup off
@@shereeneidriss thank you!
I’m curious what you think of Korean skin care!
More videos on layering acids and do not mix acids plz!!
Please do myth vs fact series about these acids .
I have heard that glycolic acid can destroy your stratum corneum that protects you from environmental damage .
I can just watch you watch you and watch you ....you are so damn beautiful derm.....so yeah make longer videos so that i can watch you more ...
Love this video! Why don’t you like toner?
I'm so surprised how popular that Neutrogena wash is. I tried it about a year ago, used it 3 times over I think 2 days. I ended up with such a bad chemical burn - beet red skin that was unbearably itchy and burned when I touched it, plus my eyes swelled as if I was stung by bees! I researched the product after the fact and found HUNDREDS of the same review. I always thought I had oily skin but have recently learned I lean more towards combination. Are there any ingredients to definitely avoid for sensitive skin? I'm so nervous to try new chemical exfoliants now when I don't know how I'll react.
Hi Dr, pls do a video on tranexamic acid. Thank you 😊
Hi Dr shereene, do you know if Glucanolactone is safe to use in baby skincare?
Farmhouse fresh has a toner spray with aha pha and bha
Hi doctor love your channel... please review the innisfree line (now on Sephora I think) - I’ve actively used Sakura line, and it’s more effective than the green tea line for my allergies... 2 months in, it worked for my weird melasma...
Thank you for the great information!!!
Will you make a video about skin care not recommended for pregnant women?
I have a question.. does PHA makes your skin purge?
I just started to use Pha toner, and it kinda gives me a red pimples ( not whitehead, it doesnt have much pus). I cant find an answer 😩
What about lactobionic acid ....do's and dont's of it .what result to expect .how to use it .....you are so sweet 🌻🌻
Love from India 🇮🇳
Taking notes 🤓🤓🤓🤓
I’ve been using (at night) the salicylic acid cleanser from cerave, followed by glycolic acid from L’Oréal then vit c and moisturizer. Is it ok to use 2 acids? It hasn’t irritated my skin and has very much improved the skin texture and smoothness of my face..? Just wondering if this combination will eventually bite me in the butt and start to irritate etc. been doing this routine for about 3 weeks without issues
Sounds great! A question- for pm is it ok to use retinols In combination to glycolic in the am ??????
Your thoughts on the cerave sa cleanser. It has corn oil ? Would that be a concern?
Amazing vid. Would you recommend using BHA’s once or twice a week on top of my prescription adapalene? (Prescribed to be used every night)
If ur oily and still breaking out then yes
@@shereeneidriss thanks so much! :)
What if you have a liquid exfoliant with lactic acid and salicylic acid in it? Alumier Bright and Clear Solution.
Can I use salicylic acid facewash everyday to wash my face because I am acne prone skin
@Shereene Idriss Can we use AHA and BHA at the same rutine? And if we can which one we should use first? 🌼
I've always wondered. Can I combine a bha/aha toner once or twice a week along with my lotion that contains 2% salycilic acid. Or is that too many exfoliants on my face at once ?
It can start to border on overdoing it in my opinion- understanding what’s in which product will give you a better understanding of how to navigate skincare
@@shereeneidriss better safe than sorry right. Thank you !
Thanks for the great content! Neostrata makes a great PHA cream (12% PHA) and a PHA Lotion (15% PHA) and is currently having a 25% off site-wide sale. I love their PHA products! Neutrogena makes a PHA cleanser called Stubborn Texture Acne Cleanser for Textured Skin that I love. It's inexpensive, effective, and gentle for exfoliating.
Hello dr shereene. I am glad to find you on UA-cam. Thanks for your skin educative talks.. clear and informative. I would like to know skin regime during breastfeeding as lactating mother I find very less time to skincare routines. Are AHA’s can be directly followed by a moisturizer ? If I remember properly , you mentioned in earlier video retinoids not recommended during pregnancy/breastfeeding?
