No dermatologist spends this much time explaining things to patients. You are a godsend! I have wasted a lot money in the past buying bad products. Then came along "Life According to Dr. Dray." I am forever grateful for your advice, your wry humor, your time and expertise. Blessings upon you, your mom and little Tybee! You truly rock, Dr. Dray!!!
Changes I’ve made since finding Dr. Dray-- Running from all the expensive “clean” beauty products that are filled with essential oils, double cleansing only once a day, drying my hair with a t-shirt, using all the oat products, slathering that sunscreen on daily and incorporating more drug store skincare products. So happy with my routines now, thank you for all you do!! 💜
"I'm a Board Certified Dermatologist" a.k.a. actually qualified to give advice and information on the given subject, unlike 99% of random creators existing in the "ether", that feel compelled to give out public advice on subjects they have little or no knowledge of. Sorry, not sorry. Much respect to Dr. Dray and her expertise. I really enjoy her videos.
I have always thought people who aren't experts usually in my mind doctors or dieticians ect shouldn't have their own channels acting as experts and having for instance thousands of subscribers. A lot of mistakes can occur and they can't know what doctors do. They should do it maybe in a different form.
Being certified by a medical board is nothing to scoff at. The examinations a doctor has to take are EXHAUSTIVE!! And all of this after years of medical school, internships and residency! That commands respect! It isn’t something that just anyone off the street can do!
I'm a cosmetic chemist & wholeheartedly agree with Andrea. I get the same frustration when I see outlandish celebrity skincare claims & prices. Another brand that is highly overpriced is La Mer.
I had a sample of la mer’s moisturizer once, and I’m not gonna lie, it felt amazing and was a dream under makeup. But even though I have the money now, I’d never waste it on moisturizer. If anybody’s curious, Kiel’s moisturizer works just as good if not better for me
"It sounds like a candle, not a cream for acne" -- it's scary how many skincare products are like this! Removing fragrances from my skincare has helped my acne immensely!
I was just using the Josie Maran sunscreen with argan oil, and i now have my first acne breakout in a while. I realized the sunscreen has fragrance in it and I’m wondering if that’s why!
@@vetsai8199 yes!! and the brands that claim that they only use "natural" fragrances make me cringe too. It's amazing how once I switched to a completely fragrance-free routine my skin cleared up faster than it takes for salicylic acid to work!
Same!!! Switching to fragrance-free skincare and make up has been the best decision I ever made. My skin is so much clearer! I refuse to I use anything with fragrance now.
Lol I really only buy these products products because they look pretty in my bathroom and I use them only on my Netflix and chill days so I smell extra nice
I usually relate, especially because fragrance tends to trigger my migraines. However I've loved glow recipe, the fragrance doesn't bother me and I've seen a visible difference in my skin. I haven't been happier
Yeah true I love glow recipe and tbh it’s the only thing that works for my skin but I get why ppl don’t like them and I respect that. I just like the packaging and experience, as long as no one comes at me and tell ME what’s good for MY skin I’m good.
Wow! $88 for a product with the same retinyl palmitate as a $10 cream from the drugstore. Love my "gentler retinol cream", FF Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair for $22 with actual retinol. It has improved my sunspots very noticeably and my skin is soft, smooth and not irritated. Like you I'm so tired of the claims that essential oils are somehow safer than synthetic fragrance in skincare. Happy Monday Dr. Dray! :)
Cannot thank Dr Dray enough for providing tons of useful info presented in a superbly clear and intelligent fashion, and supported by references to pertinent articles/data Bravo!!! Million thanks!
Until I found your channel I spent years not knowing what to use and not knowing what to do. I was buying over priced cosmetic creams from khiels and I didn't even use sunscreen. About two years ago I found your channel and have been using crave pm, cream i the tub and vanicream and using neutrogena with sa and Cetaphil cleanser and off and on I use tretinoin which I got a few tubes from a pharmacy in Istanbul. AND I use la roche sun screen. Thank you-- I mean it I feel empowered
Do you need doctor's precription to get tretinoin in Istanbul? Here in Indonesia, you can simply buy it in Pharmacy as an acne treatment. What a bless 😁😂😁😂
@@NicePerson58 wow really. That's good to know. It's a prescription medicine here in Malaysia. I might ask a friend to pick it up once the border is open.
@@kate.m8499 it still needs doctor's precription if you want to be safe. But, in general, you can get it without any prescription because some people use it as an acne treatment, not an anti aging treatment. In Indonesia, ingredients like Benzoyl peroxide and Azelaic acid can not be sold in regular Supermarkets. You need to go to the Pharmacies who are licensed to sell medicines, just like tretinoin. But, generally speaking, you simply can obtain them.
I need you to do all of the overpriced Sephora skincare products and say if they are worth the price or not. And say when it helps to spend a little bit more money, and when its just throwing your money down the drain.
Yes! Thank you!! Love this type of video for educational purposes and to illuminate marketing tactics vs facts. Augustin Bader products would be interesting to see you discuss!
This has to be one of my favorite videos! You debunk so many things that I didn't know about (like the succinic acid - I am treating acne and I looked at the Inkey List one thinking maybe it was something revolutionary - or Elemis, which I see in magazines and thought it was too expensive for me but probably amazing before I started to learn about skincare). Thank you, thank you, thank you for your incredible work ❤
I genuinely admire professionals like you, who have the courage to speak up about the false claims of products whose formulation is not backed by any studies or science, educating the consumers on what to look for instead and providing better, more affordable alternatives.
A lot of doctors have no problem speaking out against those. But they're busy treating patients. Risking their lives in the frontline. But no, social media doctors are the ones with "courage"
I agree with Dr. D on most issues - especially when she says that a more expensive product does not necessarily equal better results. However, I swear by the Elemis pro-collagen cleansing balms and moisturizers. They are expensive, but I can find both for sale at a decent discount if I search the internet. These products make my skin glow and minimizes my wrinkles like nothing else I've used previously. For everything else I use Paula's Choice, which is also pricey but very effective.
I would love more videos like this one! Where you talk about expensive products that are unnecessary. I was pretty close to buying the glow recipe serum and you just saved me some money :)
Reminds me of the last time I went to my dermatologist and tried to explain The Glow Recipe's Banana Souffle moisturizer, lol. I'm sure she thought I was an idiot but I still love that moisturizer!
You look great in pink Dr Dray. Can you do a video of the telling us about the woman in your family and what were there skincare routines when you were a kid.
So glad you did this video! I received a sample of retinol reform, and while I did like the effects of it, I know that the lactic acid helped my skin, not the retinol. I can find an effective lactic acid for much less!
You are amazing for doing this for us regulars who are just trying to not get ripped off and appreciate the teachings you offer. Thank you soooooo much.
I appreciate you so much. Using your recommendations has greatly improved my skin. Cheaply, I must say. I trust your judgment and these products must as well go to cosmetic purgatory.
I just recently discovered your channel and I truly appreciate all the information you put out. It’s so educational and I wish I had found you a long time ago! (It would have saved me a lot of $$$). I would love to know more about you! Please consider talking about your med school/residency journey ❤️
I was considering this LRP SPF but was suspicious of it. I am so proud you confirmed my concerns but I still hope LRP will come up with a good tinted SPF 😊
I have seen another dermatologist say that there isn’t enough UVA protection in that sunscreen and did not believe them until now that Dr. Dray confirmed it!
Thank you for educating us consumers, we're saving so much money and letting these companies know we're not going to be duped to buying into their false claims!
I was looking into Shani Darden "skin care Retinol reform". And it looks like it has a retinol in the list of ingredients.Maybe it's the new product , different from the one you have reviewed. It's been 3 years ago. So possibly that's the case .
I was looking into the Shani Darden products and could not believe that the texture reform and retinol reform were both $88 when the texture reform didnt even have actual retinol in it! I must say that I got the retinol reform and have had great results. I only use a pea size over my entire face so I'm making it last!
Thank you, pls never stop what you do. You are a true source to be reckoned with, with your knowledge, credentials, education and commitment to telling your viewers the truth about overpriced, non effective skincare.
I dread to think what I spent on skincare before finding you when you first launched... You are so authentic you’ve never veered of dispatching consistently objective advise since you started And my skin is now fully repaired and positively healthy as a result Can’t thank you enough for sharing Andrea Plus you always make me laugh 😆 Hope your mums ok xxxx
I love me some Glow Recipe. I’ve only tried a sample of the one you mentioned, though. I totally agree about it not being occlusive. I generally put my CeraVe cream on top of some of my glow recipe stuff. The GR just feels so great on my skin! Plus the niacinamide dew drops are just so pretty although I am not counting on that niacinamide penetrating previously mentioned occlusive layer. I do other niacinamide as well.
I just wished you were on UA-cam 8 years ago when I was wasting my money and skin barrier , trying fixing my oily skin with alcohol based harsh toners, scrubs and face washes. Fast forward to 2017 when I started watching your videos and realised that my skin wasn’t oily, it was dehydrated instead and skin barrier was compromised. I can’t thank you enough for your existence dr. Dray. Because of you I have the best skin of my life. I’m 38 and I never had this clear skin, ever since I hit puberty at 13. Much love, respect and prayers 🥰😍🙏🏽
Very informative! I used to be guilty of getting expensive skincare only because I felt like I was getting a superb product and that my skin would look great. Uh...nope. Per your recommendation in a video from a while back, I started using Vanicream facial wash and I haven't looked back. This stuff cleans my skin and removes my makeup w/o drying it out or irritating it. Thank you for sharing ♥
@@LoveABun Hi :-) I'm not so sure about removing thick mineral sunscreen. that's a good question. At night, I follow with Cerave SA facial wash (another rec from Dr. Dray). I have super oily/acne prone skin, though. Maybe she'll answer this question because it's a good one. Thanks for asking ♥
I finally pulled the trigger on Sharni Darden’s retinol serum, thinking I should use a gentle one to start my retinol journey. Guess I will be returning this product. Thank you Dr. Dray~
I like Ellis papaya enzyme cream ( exfoliation) and pro collagen marine cream- have been using them for years as my skin really enjoys them, especially the pcm. I NEVER pay full price however, go without when I can’t get a deal and don’t bother with any other of their products.
Wow I never really thought about how much fragrance affects the price, but it makes sense that without a scent the focus is more the product's actual performance than the good smell.
OMG I love Elemis. Love it and the Ultra Marine Cream makes me so hydrated and look like I have had rest and although I do not like fragrance, I do like the cinnamon smell.
Perfect timing!! I just finished a second bottle of shani Darden and didn’t see anything special so I’m glad I won’t be wasting my money on this anymore. Thank you!!!
Can’t believe at one point I was really contemplating on getting that pineapple glow recipe serum lol 😭 thank god for this channel. I changed my skincare completely and I don’t have dermatitis anymore and no longer look like a walking bowl of cornflakes lmao 💖
DR DRAY COULD YOU TALK ABOUT ESTEE LAUDER'S ADVANCED NIGHT SERUM INGREDIENTS & POSSIBLE DRUG STORE DUPE THAT COULD BE FOUND IN WALMART OR CVS ? THANK YOU ♡
I started watching your videos two days ago and can’t stop! Very informative and I can tell you like your research so for someone like me who studies health science I can appreciate it. Thank you 🙏
And of course Hypocrite *SENSITIZER* Hyram highly recommended that Glow Recipe serum even though he always discourages his cult members to buy anything that has fragrance.
“If you want fragrance, buy perfume” - such a simple statement
Yep, I do wear perfume but I want it on my body, not my face lol 😂
Or moisturize face oil that heavy scent
@@themagicalfox6 get a body oil. or apply lotion and spray your perfume on it to apply it all over your body

I’d love to see a video about OSEA
DR DRAY!! Your editing on this video is CRACKING ME UP!!! LOVING IT!! Julia Childs.....
I'm always here for a Dr. Dray roast.
OMG I love Elemis. Love it and the Ultra Marine Cream makes me so hydrated and look like I have had rest and although I do not like fragrance, I do like the cinnamon smell.
I have been trying other's you have mentioned though.
you look so pretty! Love pink on you! also love vidoes like this! I love knowing what NOT to spend my money on!!!! Thanks Dr. Dray
thanks for clarifying about the succinic acid 💕
I could never justify spending soo much money on Skincare! I am soo here for this video! 🙌🏻
Perfect timing!! I just finished a second bottle of shani Darden and didn’t see anything special so I’m glad I won’t be wasting my money on this anymore. Thank you!!!
happy Monday everyone!
Dr. Dray you are such a badass disruptor, Keep on keeping on...... You have profoundly changed my skin at very little cost.
Oh I’m early! Hello Dr Dray and everyone watching! Hope your are all staying safe and healthy!
RESPECT to Dr. Dray.
Always saving us money! Thanks Dr Dray!! Happy Monday! Hope you have a tranquil evening. ❤
Great video. I'd also like one of cheap skincare that doesn't work snd then expensive and cheap products that are actually harmful short or long term.
Can’t believe at one point I was really contemplating on getting that pineapple glow recipe serum lol 😭 thank god for this channel. I changed my skincare completely and I don’t have dermatitis anymore and no longer look like a walking bowl of cornflakes lmao
💖
Dr. Drey has changed my skin entirely! So amazing!!!
You are a wealth of information. I discovered you one year ago or two. Thank you, Dr. Dray:)
DR DRAY COULD YOU TALK ABOUT ESTEE LAUDER'S ADVANCED NIGHT SERUM INGREDIENTS & POSSIBLE DRUG STORE DUPE THAT COULD BE FOUND IN WALMART OR CVS ? THANK YOU ♡
There is a dupe, Missha Time Revolution Night Repair. It’s $24
@@jenniferiversen1912 in my country that Missha night repair serum is double the price of Estée Lauder 🙈🤷♂️
I started watching your videos two days ago and can’t stop! Very informative and I can tell you like your research so for someone like me who studies health science I can appreciate it. Thank you 🙏
And of course Hypocrite *SENSITIZER* Hyram highly recommended that Glow Recipe serum even though he always discourages his cult members to buy anything that has fragrance.
Money, he likes to pushing out unnecessary expensive products,
That’s because he was getting paid to talk about it, funny how he swings his views for a pay check... 😅
And James Welsh
@@rheasummer5806 James Welsh has never had a problem with fragrance in skincare.
I use it. It works nicely
