That’s because people confuse or simply don’t know the difference between dehydrated skin and dry skin. Dehydrated is lacking moisture, dry is lacking natural oils. So if you have naturally dry skin your skin doesn’t produce enough oils on its own. You can have oily, combo or dry skin and your skin be dehydrated at the same time because it’s lacking moisture aka water. Hyaluronic acid help skin to retain moisture not oils, therefore if your issue is truly dry skin then what you’re needing is oils to replace what you’re missing.

Thank you for this! 💜
I have oily skin, but occasionally it gets dehydrated. HA helped getting the balance back. I can't even think where would I be if I simply jumped on the castor (or any) oil bandwagon, simply because I see and hear everyone is using it. Do research and know your skin before you follow anyone's "expert" advice.
@@mimimimz6719 Thank you! Now I'm confused... HA or oil?? Why do you thank her for her comment if you don't share her opinion🤔?
@@angelauska
You need to read both comments more carefully again.
My skin is NOT dry, but oily, so putting oils on it won't help. However, since my oily skin gets dehydrated sometimes I need moisturizer with HA, which I use. But let's say someone has dry skin ( meaning lacking oils, not moisture), oils will help. But if your skin is dry and dehydrated you need both, oils and HA.
Edit: Btw, I do share her opinion, that's why I was thanking her for making a distinction between dry and dehydrated skin and sharing with us what helps which skin problem.
Esthetician told me that I have very dry skin, but I’m oily in T zone, so is that combination skin (T zone oily and cheeks normal/dry or completely dry) or am I just dehydrated?
@@Commentator488that’s combination skin
I use castor oil everyday. Thought it would break me out but the opposite. My skin looks so much healthier.
thank you for tip!
Same here. :)
👍😊
Ok under make up?
I use castor oil for hair growth. Im very much afraid if I put it on my face, whether it may trigger facial hair growth. Did you face any issues?!
I use castor oil at night. Wake up with baby smooth skin. Now I know why!
In France we have so many of these moiturisers , we don't know what to choose from but my grand-mother, who was from the south of france, only ever used olive oil on a face, and a hat for sun protection, she had lovely skin up into her 80's.
Its the " think about it, lets use common sense for a second " for me! Thank you for your knowledge. Finally someone that speaks my language.
Oil is a sealant. Not a moisturizer. You can have oily skin that is dry and flaky. Use a moisturizer then massage an oil over top to seal moisture in.
You tell everyone the things I've noticed but have never seen anyone talking about~
They all always share the same info!

Thank you, you just saved me a bunch of money. I was listening to several yt channels about the best skincare and HA was recommended by all. I actually use oils like carrot oil etc for a while. You got yourself a new subscriber.
This is the best video I have ever seen on moisturizing the skin and why it does or doesn't work. His videos are very visually effective for me as well. Glad I found his channel! 🎉❤
Watched this a couple of weeks ago, I dumped the hyaluronic acid was using every day, I went full on with squalane oil and omg the difference is crazy. My skin is so much healthier it feels amazing to. Thank you so much you’ve saved my skin and wallet.
You're very welcome! I'm glad this video has been helping people ever since I made it. There's plenty more stuff on the channel and plenty more in the works too 😁
A agree, bought a 250ml bottle of pure olive oil squalane and love how it absorbs right in and gives me nice glow. Also I found no greasy heavy feeling with squalane.
@@kerrystone3201 do u apply it before or after moisturiser?
& What's Your Natural Skin Texture Before Appling Those Products?
Oily/Natural/Dry/Rough?? Plz Reply 🙏🏻
@@moubhattacharyay6891 hi, my skin in normal to a bit on the dry side. 😊
Dr. Shereene Idriss also spoke out against using skincare products that contain hyaluronic acid. She said hyaluronic acid draws moisture from your skin, leaving your skin dry.
💯
Would glycerin do the same as hyaluronic acid?
@coffeelover4642 it's also a humectant if that's what you mean
@@Dr_Abs would it be as detrimental as hyaluronic?
Good question, I've never seen a study with a good control to test that unfortunately
Thank you for all the videos 🙏. I am binge watching now. Was wondering what products can we use on the body please?
Aquaphor moisturiser has been a game changer for my face. Probably the urea in it. I have tried almost all recommended brands :)
My skin stays hydrated most part of the day. And dehydrated skin is the main cause of fine lines. At night I later it with rose hip oil.
This is so true! Before I got into skincare 2019, I just used coconut oil and my skin was never dry and always looked good. I also started (and will never stop my tretinoin in 2019). I always get the best results with just tretinoin cream in the evening, sunscreen in the morning and cleansing in the evening. Some oil over tretinoin occasionally feels good too.All the serums and „magic creams and potions“ are just fancy and aren’t doing anything!
Stay bold as you are! And don’t let the brands and sponsors make you change the direction of your content for cash 😉🫶🏻✨
You don't need tretinoin, you need different food. Find the root cause, not a drug.
I'm glad I found this video, I've almost never used moisturizing creams, and for 10 years or more I've been using only oils and various types of serums and I'm satisfied. I used to think that maybe it was bad that I didn't use moisturizing creams, but now I won't worry about it anymore. I never liked them, their smells or consistency usually irritated me. I look really good for my age.
I live in the humid tropical climate. I used to use only coconut oil, yet over time my skin turned really oily yet also rough on the surface. Then i started incorporating a HA toner (japan's Hada labo) and my skin felt moisturized and plump and the texture got better. Since i'm oily skinned i quit the coconut oil and only used the HA. If you live in humid climates HA actually works to hydrate.
Omggg same. My skin is still oily thanks to the hot and humid climate of SEA, but much better since I no longer have dry patches in some area thanks to HA. Judging from your username, are you from Indonesia?
Coconut oil is known to be drying and comodegenic. You could try Castor oil, raw shea butter, almond oil or jojoba oil.
Castor oil has been a game changer. I had solar urtacaria bumpsfor a while which disappeared after 3 days of using Castor oil.
So what you're saying that the abs is wrong? This goes against everything what you said on this video.
I live in a humid not tropical place and it’s the opposite for me. HA was the worst on my skin, making it even drier. I guess it really dependes where you live and how your body reacts to it
@@thehyatt straight castor oil is too thick for me and it's also quite drying. I've tried using it to thicken my eyebrows but it caused CCs. My fave oil so far is squalane
I’m obsessed with neem oil!! It doesn’t smell good but it works like magic to decrease any irritation or dryness!
New sub here from Vancouver Island. Wow! Great info, thank you for your honesty & timely info. I’ve found the vast array of products & care regimes confusing. I’m 62 with fairly good skin, with some rosacea, a few dark spots & now starting to get the odd annoying milia. I’m a sagger, not a wrinkler 😅. I’ve tried lots of different things but am hooked on microneedling & some laser treatments. No Botox or fillers for me. The simpler the routine, the more likely I will be consistent. I’m going to binge watch your videos & send this out to all my peeps! Thank you again for your content! ❤
Do you mind if I ask what kind of laser treatment you had done?
EXCELENT video!!! ❤ Please make one for oily or combo skin 🙏🏽
i use grass fed tallow and caster oil whip together add some essential oils and bam skin food
Very grateful for this video! I will be picking up the Squalane oil. I currently have castor oil- is that acceptable to use in the same way as well. At least for now. Thanks in advance for your response.
So nice to hear you say this!! Squalane oil is my holy grail!!
Is there a specific brand you recommend?
Thank you for your honesty.
Sick of everything with HA
@@a91170 my skin hates HA too and it is in everything
I only use it when I need a little extra oompf
I have oily skin and it just sits on the top. Moisturizer actually helps my skin.
Same. Not everyone's skin has the same properties and requirements. And one more thing, climate and season play a role in your skin needs.
I think that supports what he is saying. Moisturizer drys your skin out. At least, that is what I perceived.
@@detraslaughter4770
Not quite. You can have dry or oily skin and still have your skin lacking moisture, hydration. Oils help replenish natural oils in your skin, that's why people with dry skin like using oils. But if your skin is dehydrated, regardless if it's oily or not you need to replenishes moisture, water not oils. In a few words, your skin is lacking natural oils, use oils, but if you lacking moisture use moisturizer with HA. If your skin is lacking both, oils ( dry skin) and moisture ( dehydrated), use both oils and HA moisturizer.
Hey doc, please make a detail video about oily skin solutions.The whole skincare market is booming with advertisements and being a newbie in skincare world,it is getting too messy.Please do surely remember to make a video on oily skincare.
This isn’t a video about moisturizer. It’s about hyaluronic acid. Moisturizers used to be good because they contained oils. Then they got on this “oil-free” kick, which makes no sense. Now I’m frustrated by it being extremely hard to find a product that does not have HA.
When it first came out, it was always made clear that in dry air the ha will draw moisture from your skin. Somehow that quickly got ignored.
Maybe I have to try oils now. It’s hard to find one that’s not irritating.
I just want to kindly point out - you answered your own question at the end of your comment. Many companies went “oil free” when consumers stopped using their products containing oils because the oils were blamed for acne breakouts, skin irritation, and other issues like seborrheic dermatitis(my mom was advised by her dermatologist to only use oil free products to control this condition and treats his directive like it’s gospel.) I’m curious if these products just contained poor quality oils or if there were other chemicals used in production that degraded the oils or caused problems on the skin and were overlooked as being the cause.
Cetaphil is extremely easy to find and it has oil. You just need to read more labels lol
@@missmayflower jojoba oil is my all time favorite
It's been very dry lately, and i cut out hyuralonic acid, and it's doing wonders
I avoid HA like fire, my skin feels so dry after using it.
I do actually live in a very humid climate! No not rainforest but air you can wear. Hyaluronic acid works great under my make up applie first to a damp face.
I live in an area classified as a temperate rainforest in the Appalachian mountains. I also put a serum with HA on damp skin every morning, then a moisturizer. Works great for my dry skin.
this man wants to take a dump of HA. IT IS NOT A BAD PRODUCT. IT IS JUST USED WRONG. im not going to put oil on my hormonal, acne prone skin. lol.
Thank you for the video. Subscribed.
Thank you for this doctor God!! I have said over and over again moisturizer makes my skin dry especially hydraulic acid serums even with moisturizer and friends think i'm crazy!! Will definitely try an oil. Thanks so much!!
Excellent video thanks ! We have hard borehole water and no matter what I do or what I use, my skin is remains terrible and I can feel that none of the products are penetrating into my skin. I think the hard water blocks my pores. I use castor oil but it doesn’t do much at all.
Lovely informative video. So does this mean oil blotting sheets are bad for the skin/aging since they strip the oils off your face? Even if squalene oil is applied just before?
At night, I use jojoba oil in the shower to cleanse my face, then RetinA then castor oil. In the morning, I use castor oil with facial massage
I think so much is based on the persons chemistry as well. When I’ve used things with HA they dry out my skin and I never understood why so many people love them! But if so many people swear by it I have to believe it must work for them.
I can't lie brother, you deserve all the attention, because indeed all these UA-camrs don't say anything. They will get sponsored by these companies to shill the products... your motto will become famous when you get more viewers haha '' NO BULLSH*T '' and how it should be.
Thank you very much 🙏 I think/thought the same and that's why I started the channel. Hopefully it will start a trend 🙌
A lot of women's hair are falling out due to haircare products as well. Every product has protien in it or some unnecessary ingredients. Can you speak about this or do you just address the skin ?
I'm not a huge expert in hair but that will be heavily related to diet to be honest
And hormones!
@@Dr_AbsThank you! This information is very helpful. Would love to see a video on sebaceous filament treatment and management. This is such a common issue and I have trouble keeping buildup at bay. Thanks for all you share on YT 😊
Great info, ordered the squalane oil and dropped the HA moisturizer.
🙌 glad to be of service
Using oil is an occlusive barrier strategy.
THIS ☝️☝️☝️ - you are exactly right oil is not moisture. Use moisturizer on damp skin then oil last.
@@Dianawalesthat’s what I thought as well, that it wasn’t a moisturizers, but actually traps things
@@Dianawalesthis is what I’ve done for years and so far it’s kept my skin good 🙏
You have confirmed what I had suspected. Hyloronic acid and Vitamin b3 both dries the skin of sebum, thus it is more dry… Oils have been a great and cheap solution, because skincare products are typically loaded with the stuff, that dries the skin out…
I like rosehip oil. I still use moisturiser but if if feels like it needs more I'll revert to an oil. I think hyauaronic acid works better if you spritz some hydrating toner on first before you use it, I do that with my moisturiser that has that ingredient too. I still have oil in my skin so I don't use an oil all the time.
I noticed this, I stopped using moisturiser and just stick to essence and serum and my skin is so much better!
My skin is very sensitive and I spent a long time just using pure shea butter melted into my hands. My skin had preferred this over squalane and most other popular oils. Thanks for reminding me to pull it out again.
Hello Dr.Abs
I like your videos.
ThankYou SoMuch.
I am late 50s growing younger gracefully without invasive unnatural procedures + proud of it.
Could you please do more videos on this topic + for this audience, as We are many.
eg - I loved your video on at home derma rolling.👍😜
Recently I thought, ‘Maybe I could look at getting some laser or something like this to target fine lines etc as I’m going to be 60 next year’
but the information out there is all so confusing.
I think I could trust your opinion on this.
Will you help this massive group of humanity that don’t want a face lift or injectables?
I’m a Spiritual Being - working on the InnerGlow + looking at transitioning over the bridge gracefully + am not scared of ageing or death of the body.
I’d just like to look my best + your expert advice on how to best accomplish that.
ThankYou
Appreciate.🌈🙏🏿🦋
Ooh makes sense. Never thought about moisturizers in that way. Not a lot of moisturizers work for me anyways, but the ones with urea did good things for my kp. I do like oil (coconut oil being my favorite) but the only issue i have with them is that it gets all sticky and if i go to sleep with them, my pillowcase will stain lol. Any tips to avoid that?
Sure, just use it in a smaller amount and not just before you sleep 😁
What a cool zoom on 4':38" "I never, ever, ever..." 😊 Dc, the recommended products have an SPF factor of 15 (sune koss post peeling). In case of sensitive skin with redness, would 50 be more appropriate? I don't use retinoids or peels.
Yes. Vaseline and/or castor oil
I just dropped a moisturizer, that had to much water in it, using more oily one instead. But in the morning I use a self-mix of ultra-molecular HA and hydrolate mixed with more hydrolate in hands. In my creams there is no HA. In creams mostly the big size of HA is used, that truly can not penetrate skin and stays on the surface. It is much cheaper to produce.
I can use oils and butters for the body, but have a problem on face with it since some years. It stays on surface and skin is still dry. This only worked when I was younger.
But my serum for night is a mix of retinol, squalane and oils. This works well.
I love your examples of creams and most moisturizers in the video ; )
Hi Dr. Abs great stuff! So glad I came across your channel!
Can squalene oil be used for my whole body to replace body lotion? I have dry skin on my body and combination skin on my face. Your response will be very helpful & appreciated. Thank you
Absolutely, go for it!
Thank you!
Hello, thank you for the advice. Going to try it. But what about glycerin mixed with a watertype like rosewater?
Understand your skin is the key. Use whatever that helps your skin. I use HA and Vit C serum on damp skin followed by aloe gel moisturizer. Then sunscreen on it. In evenings, HA serum and then moisturizer and tretinoin at night or just basting my skin with diaper rash cream. Works wonders to my skin because mine is oily and dry. It doesn't need anymore oil but moisture. I follow Dr. Idriss advice but improvise because now I understand my skin better.
I have been suffering from dry skin on my face ever since I gave birth. I used so many moisturisers and nothing worked. Saw this video and bought squalane from minimalist, sorted all my problems! Thank you for making this video!!!
I really hope you will answer my question and it is genuine. What is your opinion on snail mucin and topical Niacinamid. It became popular with all that south korean trend. Looking forward to your answer. Great work really. Sharing your Clips here in germany. Not using all those hyaluronic acid moisturisers anymore.
Snail mucin is a complete gimmick I think. Niacinamide can be a great ingredient. I think TheOrdinary do a great niacinamide powder that can be mixed with things. Danke schon :)
New subscriber. Thoughts on tallow for the skin?
Ty Dr.Abs, I will buy the Ordinary 100% Squalane to use am & pm .
That one is my holy grail! You will love it.
You are awesome❤. Subscribed.
Very informative,Thank you Dr ❤❤❤South Africa
Harvard Health also recommends treating dry skin by soaking it in water and then covering it in an occlusive (they mention Vaseline). Do you think there are any potential disadvantages to the skin by using occlusives like oil or petrolatum? I read a few studies online that concluded both prolonged occlusion and prolonged water exposure disrupted the stratum corneum and induced barrier damage. I wonder if something like squalane oil would be occlusive enough to have negative effects.
I wouldn't say squalane is a complete occlusive - only when you apply so much that it forms a thick layer. I personally recommend to my patients to apply a thin layer so that gaseous exchange can still take place and you're not blocking the skin like an occlusive. That way, were trying to mimic what nature intended for the skin as closely as possible.
So.. how interesting that W/O any research I have been using Coconut oil at bedtime (out of laziness you may say😅) for 15+ years!!!!! I haven’t bought ANY MOISTURIZER ever!!
My friends always ask me why my skin shines and what is my skin regimen? When I tell them it’s coconut oil outta laziness, they do not take me seriously. Also I have been using SPF for 30+ years every single day!!
What you’re saying is absolutely 💯 true!!
And Hyaluranic acid dries out your skin. I dunno why it sells..? 😐
What do you think about slathering on Castor Oil or Olive Oil on your face and other skin and joints. for Post-Menopausal women who are experiencing dry skin , thin skin, and fine lines and wrinkles.
What cleanser would you recommend?
Ur information is honestly worth anything. What about "glycerine" for moisturisation
I absolutely LOVE Cerave. I use it with my tretinoin and it really works wonder for my skin.
Thank you!! I've been saying this for a couple of years, but as I didn't have any scientific data to "back me up," nobody would listen to me. To me, it just made sense. I'd been slithering moisturiser on my face for decades (serums were introduced later) and my skin remained dry. I was told that HA was the answer to my concern - no, it wasn't. My skin became even drier!
Out went the moisturiser and the HA, in came squalene, followed by castor oil.
Result : NORMAL SKIN 😊❤❤
I have been using olive oil on my face for many years, works wonders
I always think the same way. I had very dry skin before but when i used cerave cream my skin became drier. Now i use goldbond's diabetic cream on my face. Its much oily but my skin loves it. People say my skin is glowing
wtf is diabetic cream...
@@scorpionic-nighthey I am a diabetic, trust me when we say dry skin it means it’s normally ten times drier than a person without diabetes. Diabetes is an open invitation to treat for several health issues unfortunately some more serious than dry skin.
This makes ALL THE SENSE! Lately the Malezia 5%Urea moisturizer has been good (not outstanding) but it is so expensive and I still get some dry patches and a little acne. I’m trying TO Squalene- I have it just sitting there-I haven’t used it like you mentioned. What do you recommend for cleanser? I heard just water and a muslin cloth could do the trick! New subscriber! Thanks for your informative channel!
For cleanser use the most gentle thing you can - water if possible. If you have makeup and need a cleanser then obviously use something stronger. 🙏
@@Dr_Abs thank you so much!
I use Vanicream cleanser. Its super gentle. I actually love the whole line.
@@michelletidler6773 thank you!
What oils did you recommend in the video? I didn't recognize the bottles. Also, some of the oils are comedogenic and if we leave them on at night, they'll will they not clog the pores? Also, the pillow covers and sheets will be ruined. Could you please advise?
I have understood this because I have travelled and live in dry SoCal. I remember when HA was the trend of all trends and did not get why it was not a miracle product along with all the gel creams. I have combo skin, this should be for me. Also… why are things like La Mer or even Nivea better? It is because they are are occlusives. That and HA can work, under occlusives. Also opposite where it is very humid. HA gel cream might be enough on its own.
Really appreciate you brother , but can you please tell me i have dry skin with blackheads and large pores, now what should i apply to get rid of dryness and blackheads, large pores
Im struggling to find hyperpigmentation /melasma routine. i mean budget range. By the way im from Malaysia! Other part of the world. I can try get tretinion cream here, but i need help how to layer it. My pigmentation start around aeye area and V shape down to my cheek. We can get hydroquinone too. but without expert guidance im worry to start. i hope you can help
Ive been using Aloe vera gel as a moisturizer, now im wondering whether i should switch to a oil based moisturizer. Do you think i should ditch the aloe vera gel?
I have terrible eczema and I finally stopped using ointment with HA and my skin got better.
Hot showers especially in winter will dry it. Thanks this advice saves me a ton
So is it better to have a warm or cold shower if you have dry skin?
Hello Dr. Abs
It makes sense to use oil instead of a moisturiser, however I have a question after watching this video.
Oil cleansing is suggested to take off product from face. So if I use oil and sunscreen together, or any other serum, will the oil not make my sunscreen or serum unstable?
Likewise if I use oil and retinal in the night, will it not make my retinal come off my face when I apply the oil?
I am very curious about this because oil is suggested to take a product off you face, how can they go together and let the other product stay on the face?
Can you please answer my question?
I am wondering how this applies to tretinoin combined in moisturizing carriers,
Like Altreno? I hear how
these tretinoin products are easier to adjust to in terms of irritation and dryness, but is it really adding any benefit vs. regular generic tretinoin cream? Any insight on this would be much appreciated! Thanks!
Would you suggest using squalene on top of Azelaic acid gel? Or should the gel be just enough?
I subscribed 😊 off of the information in this video. Do you have more products of reference that i can scroll through that you recommend so i can take care of my skin at home?
Thank you 🙏 Sure, keep it simple...
Suncream with zinc/titanium that you like
Vitamin A like differin or tretinoin
Something for the daytime like a simple oil (eg squalane)
Thank you, Dr. How do I incorporate an oil with the use of tretinoin? Put the Tret on first and wait several minutes and then use the oil? Do Squalane clog pores?
Yup, or you can mix together to slow down the tret going into the skin. It won't clog the pores unless you absolutely overdo it
Ive put olive oil directly on my skin. Dr Abs, any thoughts about that please?
So what exactly are you suggesting to use? I’m confused and want to sort my skin out
Thank you for this video! But I have a question, what about if you live in a dry climate like Arizona and the ones that area genetically under producing sebum? I find that darker skin tones are less dry but lighter complexions have drier skin. Are they exceptions? Or you still just recommend oil? How can you tell if someone is under producing the essential ceramides, hyaluronic acid, etc? What if they need to supplement it?
If sebum is missing then I'd replace with something as close as possible to sebum, so I'd still recommend an oil, personally. If they're underproducing in terms of cell function then I don't need to know what specifically they're making less of - I just target cell function still as a whole. Also, not making enough HA can be because there isn't enough of a protective barrier such as sebum, remember.
I have an autoimmune disease that attacks a lot of the glands in the body that produce moisture and oils. My skin is unbelievably dry. I use a blend of 100% lanolin oil and raw shea butter to moisturize and protect my sensitive skin. Even on my face!
Not everyone needs this much moisturizing but it can be used sparingly on just the driest places, especially in the winters if your climate is on the colder side.
What are your thoughts on beef tallow as an oil moisturizer? I regularly use grape seed oil too. Love your channel!!
I’m curious about tallow as well.
Dr. And, how would you use the squalane oil in conjunction with your retinol? Would you apply it before or after the retinol?
How about mixing a few drops of oil to the moisture and applying it? I recently bought a huge tub and dont want it to go to waste 😢
God I love this guy! Speaks the truth! I’ve literally saved $$$$ every year going forward. My new routine, low strength tretinoin 0.25 am and pm, Korean sunscreen and in the evening a face oil by the ordinary.
what do you use to cleanse off the Korean sunscreen?
I actually knew that about oil. I have a lotion that I use that has a lot of great ingredients for the skin like ascorbic acid and niacinimide but I add enough avocado oil to it to make it about 1/2 and 1/2.
What about if one is dry all over their body? Also, is it better applied on wet or dry skin?
Do ceramides lock moisture in? I’ve used some ceramide sprays and that makes my face shiny, but is it as good as a face oil?
My face was fine now I'm using rose water mixed with glycerin on my face as a toner. I have normal skin type, should i use this one, my skin is sometimes sensitive to new products.
Can we use oil in summer as well ..and what about almond oil
My skin loooves oil much better😬 NO moisturizer has ever helped…so thank you for explaining!!
🙌🙌
What do u think about slugging. Slugging with Vaseline has given me baby smooth skin. My skin has never been smoother or felt better. 😊
Wow
Will buy this now
I subscribed immediately 😘😘😘😘
I use glycerin as my moisturiser. What would u say about that? Can it replace oil?
Great videos. Can you turn down the background music. It’s a bit distracting
So i just have to use a cleanser and then tretinion and no moisturizer at night??and in the day cleanser and sunscreen thats all?
Totally agree. However my skin became dehydrated through menopause & I have tried many things, I love oils especially squalane but all oils except for tallow (large molecular weight)give me milia! Can you please explain why, it’s so hard to use anything on my face for this reason 😮
Dr Abs, how would you use the squalane in conjunction with retinol?
Thank you Dr. Abs 🎉 I’ve always used my intuition didn’t fall into marketing tricks and trends. Castor oil is one of my best friends. My skin care routine starts from the inside and it’s holistic, even our thoughts and emotions impact our skin not just what we put into our bodies.
hell yeah intuition FTW!
Thanks for finally somebody actually do not recommend hyaluronic acid. I tried it many times but my skin always became worse then better. I relaized the same that it actually suck the moisture from my skin and will be red and irritated. Etc. Thanks
You're welcome :)
Hi dr thank u for this video. I have a question i have some pimples they're that big , do u recommend me cerave acne foaming cream cleanser??? Please reply.thanks
Impossible to give medical advice without a consultation and just a UA-cam comment unfortunately
Try Paula’s choice exfoliate! It cleared my nephews face almost completely in less than 2 weeks! Then we added the whole acne kit and it made it spotless, the acne kit along with exfoliate
