You know your stuff. I’ve been following your advice for a little over a year and I must say that at 74 years of age, I receive compliments (I still work where I meet scores of people daily) about how nice my skin is. It was NOT so nice last year. Your advice and product recommendations and application procedures are the reason. Thank you.
Same here!! I’m 77 & have also followed her procedures & advice. My skin has never been better!
May I ask whats your routine ?
Let me join the chorus! I'm in my 60's, first 'met' Dr. Dray 16 months ago. My skin looks better now than it has in 2 decades because I've been following her uncomplicated, purposeful advice. Love this channel!☮️💙💚💜
I’m 72. I’ve mostly been disappointed with everything! I have some
Deep
Wrinkles and
Sunspots.
She's the best!!!
Happy Tuesday, Dr. Dray ❤
Boy, you sure have a head full of knowledge & I appreciate you sharing it with us! 🥰
This is one of my favorite videos that you have posted. Thank you so much for sharing all of this!
Thank you so much for taking the time to educate us all Dr Dray ☺️
Extremely informative Dr. Dray! I learned ALOT! 🇯🇲🇪🇹
Love this. Feel like I’ve been in a good biology class🤓
More of these videos please! This was great! Maybe with pictures, too?
You had me at, “hyperbolic”! ❤️
I appreciate your data- driven information that has improved the health of my entire family! I share your videos with my kids and my nieces and nephews, too! Keep up the strong work!
Very informative and clear! Excellent.
Great video, as always! Super informative and helpful.
Excellent. This was so thorough, thank you!! You are a gifted educator.
Thank you for all the useful, reliable information in all your video which a 5 minute visit Dermatology office visit would never get into. Dr.Dray, you are like a professor who I never had. Wish I found your channel earlier but I guess better late than never. 😊
Thanks for this in-depth and understandable lesson!!
Thank you Dr Dray. This is amazing info
Wow this is a great lesson. 💟💜💗
Smart Doctor, Thank you!
At the age of 25, I just bought my first retinol product yesterday (bought it online, so i still don't have it). This is such a timely video for me. Thank you, Dr. Dray! It's you who convinced me to use it in the first place.
Boy oh boy! You are in your element! You are so good. Your presentation skills are superb!
Excellent, helpful information, thanks!
Your content is by far THE BEST !!! Thank you for all the time, effort and attention to detail you put into this extraordinary content!! ❤❤
I been edukated on Retinol. Thanks doc.
This was such an interesting video ❤ thank you so much dear Doc 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 take care 😘
Appreciate the in depth explanation on how these products actually work within the skin. I've been using Differin for several months and my sensitive skin tolerates it well. Thanks as, always, for keeping us educated. Happy Tuesday, Dr Dray! Hope you have a cozy evening. 💜
Tret has improved my rosacea tremendously. Excellent video. 11:01
Extremely interesting presentation ! Very well made speech and i felt as if i am in Biology advanced class
Felt so good listening and understanding the functions of retinol , benefits and more .
Excellent !! 👌 👏👏
🙏🌻🌸🌹💕
great topic thanks and happy Tuesday guys xo
Happy Tuesday!
Great video ❤
Happy Tuesday Dr Dray…see you tomorrow x💙🤩
Thank you so much. As always.
One of my favorite Dr. Dray videos ! I’d love to see this sort of format for more active ingredients!
Agreed
I’m a teen and recently got prescribed a retinoid from my dermatologist. So obviously I didn’t get it for anti aging. I definitely am happy with how my skin looks. The fact it helped my acne tremendously and post acne marks is awesome. I’m glad I was introduced to retinoids, it’s the only thing that has worked for my acne so for that, I’m grateful. And thank you doctor dray for all your information. You have helped me learn about all this before I actually went to go see a dermatologist for my acne :)
This is by far my favorite video you have done. Thank you for sharing your wealth of information with us! Can topical retinoids be contraindicated in certain types of cancer? If yes, why? Can you recommend some reading on that? Thanks!
I've used Retinol , Retinal , Adapalene and Tretinoin . I got the most irritation from Retinol . I prefer Tretinoin or Retinal and Adapalene for younger break out / acne in teens and 20' s . 😊❤🙌😊👏
Good morning Dr Dray ❤
morning
I love your explanations! You really are a great teacher, probably because you truly care about your audience. (But your lighter videos are great too😊 Every time I apply my Kroger dupe for Super Goop, I think of that funny video you filmed in the parking lot😂)
Keep up the great work Doc👏🏻❤
Phenomenal video! Thank you!
Excellent timing of this video! I had been using Adapalene 0.3% as a spot treatment, which seemed to work at stopping the development of bumps into acne. I switched to using it as an overall treatment after watching one of your videos about a week ago. But I kept looking for an explanation of the science behind it. And voila, here it is!
Adapalene is not meant to be a spot treatment
I just bought retinol 2 weeks ago. I use vitamin C & retinol in my skincare regime & I must say that I have seen quite a difference in 2 weeks. I don't use them together 1 at night & the other during the day
I have started doing the same as you ,and I see a good result on my skin
What brands are you using? I’ve just started looking to adding both of these to my (non existent 😅) routine.
I totally agree. Retinol works FAST. It is usually noted that it takes 4-6 weeks to get over the adjustment period and 6 months to a year to notice the effects. My purge was much quicker, and the benefits were almost immediate.
I was able to switch from .05 to .1 within three months. Once in a while I need to take a day or two off, but my skin is pretty good at communicating that.
I have found an a.m. routine of Naturim vitamin C and Naturium niacinimide pair well with the p.m. routine of Tretinoin. Have had issues of other vitamine c products causing issues.
Happy Tuesday Dr Dray! I got Olay Retinol 24 cream and been using it quite awhile now which I love it. Do you think it’s any good as a retinol or do you think I need something better? I love watching videos by the way and subscribed your channel for long while now. You are amazing on what you do ❤☺️
Dr. Dray, can you also discuss about laser resurfacing treatments?
Loved this video!!! God bless you!!!
My dermatologist explained how there is no cure for rosacea, they don't know why or how it suddenly occurs and to know and understand your triggers. She prescribed me Tretinoin 0.25 and sunscreen. Since 2017 I've noticed a significant improvement in my overall skin health and have pin pointed two major triggers for my rosacea flare ups. Spicy foods and red wines! I'm not giving either one up, but I definitely make plans the day I decide that I'm gonna indulge in either one 😂
Look in to Nlack seed oil for your skin
@@toastytopics2614 I don't need too, my skin is perfectly fine with what I use.
Thanks so much👍👍👍
Thank you SOOOO much for this video!! I have been back and forth on whether or not to try retinol. I’ve just been so scared bc I’ve heard each extreme. Now can I still continue using my vitamin c serum if I incorporate retinol?? This is what I am not sure of
Happy Tuesday! No problem with retinol....I am so luky! Neutrogena, Rapid Wrinkle Repair, Retinol Regenerating Cream, Fragrance Free ❤
Happy Tuesday and Happy Holidays!! 💝
Same to you!
“Well, geez, what *can’t* it do?” -Dr. Dray, you are a _hoot_
would love a video like this on tranexamic acid! thanks for the great vid ❤️
She has a video on transexamic acid, though can't remember if she speaks to the mechanics of how it works
Always love listening to you Dr. Dray. Love the science ! Why do they suggest to apply it after moisturizer as the last step? Shouldn't we apply it first after cleansing?
Some people can apply it directly to dry, clean skin with no problems but some people do better with moisturizer as a buffer to lessen irritation.
Happy Tuesday Dr Dray so excited to be here I live for this ❤️
Morning!
Greetings David Shabas hope u r well n Happy Tuesday😀👍💜….
I do too:)

@@whitneybrown4067 Happy Tuesday Whitney😀👍
Happy Tuesday! I found your channel over the weekend and have been binging ever since! I'm loving the knowledge you are providing, particularly for my 35 year old self who has always had a fairly lackluster skincare routine. I'm looking forward to my Amazon order full of Cerave, Cetaphil, and DRMTLGY products arriving today! Question: for those of us who have been waxing our face for decades, how do you suggest working in Retinols? Am I doomed to start tweezing if I start?
She has a short, don't make these waxing mistakes, where she goes over retinol (you don't have to start tweezing but stop the retinol a week before your wax).
@@db-gb5xi I just went through her facial hair videos and might try shaving at least my upper lip. Her shaving her face video was 👌🤣 looks like I'm picking up some barbasol today.
I am so thankful for Dr. Dray. She's been a huge help to me. I am so glad she did this video on topical use of Tretinoin. I stopped using mine because of a report I read about it affecting one's lungs and brain and although it was one report it was enough to stop me. I just want to know is topical Tretinoin safe and for how long? Blessings~
I suppose my first question is where you read this “report”. Because unless it was the American medical journal/dermatology section, then chances are you weren’t reading a valid source. She hasn’t mentioned anything like that in her extensive library of videos about retinols, so im going to assume based on these two things, that it is not true at all
Dear Dr Drey, what u think about teratogene side effect of Retinol? Thanks?
Hi Dr Dray, do you think we can use Kojic acid in the same routine as Copper peptides ?
Happy Tuesday 🧡🧡🧡
Morning!
Retinol for life!
Great info! Recommendation for vegan retinol for over 50 year old with fine lines? Thanks!
Thanks for the video, I like a little bit more in depth videos. What do you think of what David Sinclair says? He says it's unclear wether retinoids long term are good or bad for skin, since they reduce chaperone mediated autophagy, skin thinks it's a time of abudance, what might actually long term be negative. Also some others say it's not completely clear yet what the long term impact is of retinoids because it induces epigenome modifications and inhibits telomerase.
Dr. Dray can you review Peaches skin care?
And that’s why IMO, Microneedling is the GOAT treatment for collagen production 🎉
Please please do do a video on uv sunscreen mirror detectors. I used every sunscreen I have and found most of them don't provide the advertised 50 spf unfortunately. Beauty of Joseon was the winner!
I believe the sunscreen detectors display coverage and are aren't appropriate SPF detectors
Greetings Dr Dray hope u r well n 🖐Hello Every1 n Happy Tuesday😀n what a Wonderful Vid…. thanks n This is Gonna b so Insightful🔥👍n Continued Blessings to All💜….

Happy Tuesday Whitney Brown. Hope you're well and having a great day.

Can you do a video on A02 for clearing teen acne please?
Can you talk about procapil for eyelashes? It’s in Rimmel lash accelerator mascara. Is it safe?
I'll have to give you an update between patients on my use of the Kerasal.....
👍
HAPPY TUESDAY Dr Dray and everyone . Thanks for another great video . Have a fabulous day ! Love to mom and Tybee xoxoxo

Hi mary ann Gonzalez. Hope you're having a wonderful day and doing well.

@@whitneybrown4067 Happy Tuesday my friend enjoy xoxoxo
Hey Dr Dray, since retinol goes into the deeper skin layers, is it safe to use it on tattoos???
It’s ok to use with Azelaic acid, yeah? If tolerated, of course.
Thank you for your video!
yes, they are frequently used together
Curious if retinol use is okay while nursing? I’ve heard to wait? Great video 🙂
She has a video on this
Could you do a video comparing advanced triple action eye cream from Some by mi and the beauty of Joseon retinol cream?
Those with oily acne prone skin should not use retinol in a form of heavy cream. Clear serum texture works better and there could be a allergic reaction to other carrier and added ingredients.
Can you use retinol and coconut oil together on your face? What are the pros or cons of this?
My skin tolerates retinol well and I have seen beneficial effects from it like smoother skin and fewer lines. However, not everybody is so lucky. My husband cannot tolerate any form of it, it leads to dry irritated skin that actually has the appearance of increased lines. I recommended that he use my eye cream when he was looking for one and I was so confused when his eyes actually looked worse after using it.
Btw, I am Asian but he has Irish skin that burns very easily and is probably quite sensitive, I wonder if that is a factor and the ability to tolerate retinol
I have Irish ancestry, too, but sensitive skin, as diagnosed by doctors. I use products approved for sensitive skin, only, as I'm subject to eczema flares, as well.
I have used tretinoin, with increasing strengths, for seven years with very little irritation, but very little benefit, either. I’ve also had laser treatments, with loads of crusting, but when the crusts finally healed, there was no improvement. I’ve been through two red light masks, with only a little improvement, and I’ve also tried Juvederm and Radiesse-which I mostly absorbed. I’d like a face lift, but where I live, that’s $100,000! That’s WITHOUT lifting the neck to the eyes😱
Has he tried: putting a layer of moisturizer on first with maybe a petroleum, letting it dry before putting on his retinol? Also he could do short term contact therapy (: do those initial steps I mentioned, but leaving it on for 5 minutes before washing it off? I only ever had issue with retinol using it every single day, letting it get into skin folds, and using it after clay masks. Now when I use it, I just get extended breakouts which are frustrating
@@vetsai8199where do you live? In my area there’s a wonderful doctor who can do a facelift for around 16,000. He’s my doctor so I can recommend him 👍
Hello..I have read so many contradictions about retinol...I read it builds you collegan or it thins your skin? I have tried the Olay rentiol . I never really used retinol most of my life..I am in my 50's..since i have really good skin..i thought retinol was for mostly acne....i have always been on the fence about retinol....thank you for your explains about retinol....
I have been using topical retinol and sunscreen since I was a teenager and I think it's helped a lot. People typically guess I am 10 years younger than I actually am. Love the stuff! Just wish I could find a better sunscreen + retinol cream for day time. The Neutrogena one makes my face pill up like a midwestern pharmacy.
Lol at the last sentence
Is retinol OK in sunscreens?
Dr Dray, can you do a video about the patented Bakuchiol Sytenol A and why it's important to purchase legitimate scientific backed versions as theres sellers that are selling products labelled "Bakuchiol" which either don't contain any or worse contain potential contaminents and photosensitisers.
Dr Dray does have a video on bakuchiol and so do some other derms. There are also channels that covered the whole Herbivore fake bakuchiol issue.
Ooo what's the tea?!
Is over the counter retinol as effective as prescription retinol?
I have been using a adapalene gel for about 3 to 4 years now because I had acne and that helped me. I am now 22 and my question is should I still continue it or try a new retinol from a different brand like Cerave, SOME BY MI, The Ordinary, etc??
If I have Rx for Retin A and hydroquinone for my face, can I just also use these all over my body?
How does the Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair Cream compare to the Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair Retinol Pro+ Power Serum? Which is better??
Dr. Jenny Liu has a video comparing the two.
How often can you apply retinol?
Thank you Dr Dray for the "deep-dive" into further maintenance of our skin. I'm still of the mind that exiting aircraft for an exhilarating 45 seconds of freefall is also quite beneficial for the continuity of smiling . . which is also good for the skin? Your fav AFFI, Allan
What to think Retinol, niacinamide, H.A so versatile ingredients and help in numerous cases 😊❤ and have a good track record according to the the whole medical field especially the area of dermatology and of course cosmetic formulators who also know about the benefit attributes of those ingredients 😊❤. Doctor Andrea i hope god and santa will bless you will lots of patience and courage this year because you see a lot of odd stuff😂😅 on social media.
Can I use Tretinoin with antibiotics like Erythromycin? 🥺
Dr Dray, have you heard of “It Just Works?” It’s a body deodorizing supplement. Curious of your opinion.
The last time she talked about anything chlorophyll related, it was about chlorophyll water. Doctorly also has a short on chlorophyll.
The only retinol face cream that doesn't break out my face is olay retinol 24 . All the other ones break out my sensitive skin
I found Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair to be even gentler on my sensitive skin. I bought both of them for a comparison test. I think it’s because the Olay has niacinamide and Neutrogena doesn’t. Some skins love niacinamide and others don’t.
@DrDrayzday Since retinol can help other ingredients penetrate, should we apply retinol first before applying other ingredients (dependent of course if we can tolerate the ingredients together)?
I might check out Dr Dray's layering video.
My acné got worse with cerave retinol.. but with the Loreal revitalif retinol my skinn Is beautiful .. maybe Is because has alcohol denant ? Is weird 😮😮
I noticed that you recommended Neutrogena retinol products, but I've been wondering about ROC retinols. I have dry skin and the ROC Retinol Correxion Line Smoothing Max Hydration cream has hyaluronic acid. Also, their eye cream says it is good for dark circles. I've searched for which brand is better and haven't found any definitive information. What do you think? Is Neutrogena better than ROC? If so, why? Thank you!
Some other derm channels like the RoC retinol (especially the capsules). Some derms just have brands that they favor; doesn't mean that those brands aren't effective especially since it's a big brand.
I used a single RoC product for about a year in my 30s and it made a huge difference in my skin. (Years later I am on Tretinoin) It was the RoC Retinol Antiaging Night moisturizer in the tube. That’s all. My skin cleared up, looked smoother and brighter. I was using no other products and was completely uneducated about skin care at the time. I think Dr Dray prefers Neutrogena because they have some products that have no added fragrance. Roc scent didn’t bother me even though i have sensitive skin. Also Neutrogena has more R&D behind them but I thought my Roc cream did a great job and even the esthetician noticed the difference when I went for a facial.
She’s said before it’s a good brand.
I'm 26 and I'm getting a very bad amount of under eye wrinkles😢 i don't know where to even start since as the weeks pass it gets worse.
My eye doctor told me that LED lights are damaging to the retina. Could you address the effect of LED lights on the skin?
Depends on the range of the light spectrum. Deep RED light (aprox 650 to 900nm) particularly 670nm is helpful for the eyes.
Check with your eye doctor for your particular case.
Natural and free of charge is deep red healing light is before 9am.
Thank you for all the knowledge!
Does skin go back to being its bumpy lazy self with fine lines after stopping Tretinoin?
Yes. I know by experience.
@@missmayflower Argh. So I'm stuck with it forever :) Last few years of using literally everything Dr Drey said we should use, made my skin 10 years younger looking. But I miss just using just one moisturizer and one face wash...
I wonder this too
I have been on tretinoin for years and I am now on a mixture of retinaldehyde with azeliac acid and my skin can Not handle it. I am to the point where I am just going with retinaldehyde at this point. I read a study that retinaldehyde is equally as effective as tretinoin just with less side effects as you get with tretinoin. Can you please talk about this? Thank you
She has videos on retinaldihyde
Dr. Dray, how do you know if you can’t tolerate retinol? Like, is it ok to push through the burning as long as you can “handle it”? Or is the burning a sign to take a step back? How do you know when to step back vs. push through?
I’ve used approximately 4-5 different retinoid products and none of them ever burned. I’ve talked to a lot of people as well that use retinoids and none of them mentioned burning either.
@@dominiquem.1959well, I guess I must have really sensitive skin😅
Dr Dray does have videos on irritation vs purging and other similar videos (check her retinol playlist as there are a lot of videos with information like this).
She has a video on Retinol for beginners. I used that to start. I have very sensitive skin and started with Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair, unscented. I started with once a week and gradually increased frequency of use. Use only a pea-sized portion on clean, dry skin. Once it has absorbed, I apply my usual moisturizer. So important to wait til your skin is very dry and to wait until fully absorbed before adding moisturizer.
@@db-gb5ximy question is more like… I know my skin is irritated but is that okay? Like should I push through it? She (and everyone) says some people don’t tolerate it, and im wondering what that specifically looks like. Like if im willing to put up with the burning, will the benefits come eventually? Or does the burning mean stop?
Hello, I'm new to this. Can i keep using my nivea body lotion while I'm using the cerave acne cleanser, SA lotion for rough and bumpy skin and the cerave am&pm moisturizer?
Is it okay for me to use all these and my Nivea lotion?
Why so many ?
Is the roc brand a good retinol?
Several derm channels have recommended it especially the capsules.
Could you please elaborate on the bit at 4:48 ? I know you say here that retinol won’t age us more rapidly, but as a biochemistry student everything I know (which is limited when it comes to specifics about skin cells) points me toward the fact that increased cell turnover will age you faster. While I trust that you are telling the truth here, I can’t seem to wrap my head around that idea. The one thing that worries me about getting started on retinols is the “aging” of my DNA being sped up. My worry is that the telomeres on the ends of my DNA will become shorter even faster than they normally would when applying a retinol, thus aging me faster than normal over an extended period of time. I have tried doing my due diligence to learn more about the matter, but can’t seem to find anything pertaining to that idea.
She has answered this on a previous video but I can't remember the answer. Something About stem cells or telomeres 😊
