I was a teenager in the 90’s and was THE guy in my class with the terrible acne. I had it throughout high school, and it was miserable. I’m convinced that experience affects my self-confidence even today - like I trained myself in those formidable years to want to hide/blend into the crowd because of my shame in the appearance of face. Learning so much through your videos has made me realize how I did EVERYTHING wrong in my desperate attempts to clear my skin (terribly drying products, scrubbing my skin in harsh soaps and very hot water, not moisturizing thinking I needed to dry my skin so I wouldn’t get oily, popping my pimples, etc). I cringe at the thought, and it makes me wonder how different my life might have been had I had access to UA-cam and all this education. Hopefully there are kids out there today who have learned from you and been able to gain some self confidence back through clearing their skin. Thanks for what you do.
My
Did your doctors not offer you Accutane or RetinA? By the late 80s, doctors knew about the serious and long-lasting impact of acne scaring on emotional and mental health and were prescribing teens with severe acne Accutane or RetinA. I am so sorry that you had to go through that. I hope all teenagers are learning to advocate for their skincare with their parents and the doctor.
I had a friend in high school in the 90's who was the first person I knew to try retin-a. The other kids made fun of him first for the acne and then for the skin peeling. But a few months in, his skin cleared up entirely. But he never really got over all that teasing and was always a little insecure. :(
@@kittylemeu .
Well said. I had cystic acne. Luckily my grandma paid for accutane, which was its own nightmare for a while, but it cleared my acne by my senior year in high school. I think what makes me the angriest to this day are the people, usually adults, who would insist if you kept your face clean you would not break out. It is not hard enough having clumping acne, you just need to make the kid feel shame for being non hygienic as well. I am also still upset about some of the stuff, including the "buff puff" and diluted clorox, that my mother would insist that I try. I know she sometimes got the question, "does she wash her face." I am getting angry just typing this.
I'm gonna share this video with my AOL buddy list.
Hahaha!! Let me just wait for the dial up to load
🤣
🤣
😄 😆 😁
🤣
Early 2000’s teenager skincare routine:
Clean and Clear foaming facial cleanser
Oxy pads
Clean and Clear astringent (the blue one)
No moisturizer or sunscreen 😂
Still zits for days
Haha harsh reality. I also did the same.
Oh man! Oxy pads burned SO bad! I almost forgot about those.
This….. oooof😅
Same! I just used the Saint Ives and Noxzema, too. 🤦🏽♀️ I had no idea
Ohhh the oxy pads! my face tingled just reading that 😂 I’d forgotten all about those
omg the 90s!! 🥺 kids these days are so lucky to have a lot of skincare and sunscreen options nowadays + great resources like Dr. Dray. 💛
I agree 💯👏🏽
@@keyriberry2633 right? 🥺 i wish we had all these options and online resources back then as prevention instead of curing or reversing all the skin damages we’ve been through growing up.
I know!!
Which products did you use back then ? What is your fave 90s memory?
@@DrDrayzday you’re a gem! 💎 thank you for being you and for being a great resource for generations to come! 🥺💯💛
There was NOTHING more satisfying than opening a new jar of Noxema! It smelled the most intense the first time and it was so fun sticking your hand in the new jar!
My 92 year old aunt has used Noxema all her life. She wears no make-up and has NO wrinkles or fine lines. Her skin is beautiful; looks like porcelain. Good genes, I guess!
@@debib6021my aunt lived to be 105 and she used it too. Skin super smooth
Noxema, Seabreeze, and Clearasil… the gold standard of 80’s teenage skincare. It’s been over 30 years since I’ve used any of them and I can still feel the burn.
I almost feel guilty for all the abuse I put my acne teenager skin through but it’s true, that’s really all that was available for acne. Those heavy alcohol cleansing pads, omg. I can still smell them. It was extremely primitive, looking back. I would feel so terrible about myself wondering why it wasn’t working for me. Those were tough times.
2010 gave me Neutrogena grapefruit acne wash and Neutrogena astringent. No moisturizer though. Wouldn't want to mess up that oil-free, clean skin. 🤣
@@andreavin3674 Those Stridex pads were sheer torture 🤦🏻♀️
@@carriejeanne3038 I used them like three or four times a day to combat dirt and oil. Oh boy.
Omg Bonne Bell 10-0-6
My nana is 88, still uses Noxema every day and she has beautiful skin! The smell always brings me back to my childhood.
My mom used Noxema till the day she died & always had excellent skin! I still use it & have never had an issues with irritation or breakouts. At 55 I have no complaints so I will continue using it along with my serum & moisturizers. Perhaps it is good genes but I will still give Noxema credit since I have used it around 45 years.
My wonderful mother, to this day, still uses noxzema. She refuses to use any other cleaner because she loves the cooling effect and has gotten no irritation from it after 30+years. Would be awesome if you could do a video on “nostalgic” beauty item switch-outs, Dr Dray approved!
Such a good idea!
Love noxema I'm 40 and I still use it
I still use Noxema. I’m 66, have no skin issues and it never caused any irritation
My Mom still uses Noxzema too! That and Vicks. They are her Holy Grails! 🙂
My mom has been using it my whole life. Still swears by it
I can already tell this is going to be a good one. I can still feel the Noxzema cooling effect 20 plus years later. 😅😂
😂😂
Happy Thursday!
🤣🤣🤣
🤣
ok.. i'm so old i'm "olde", but i remember "the sunburn of '82" (she was a thing of legend) -- and Noxzema really came through for me...
Noxzema was my entire 80s high school skin care routine. The whole routine. Same product to cleanse and moisturize. I’m still tempted to buy it again just to smell it.
They can pry my noxzema from my cold dead hands! If I ever slip up and pick at my skin, I put noxzema on like a mask and it calms everything down a SHOCKING amount. I’m not a dr, so just a testimonial I guess lol, but it’s a staple for me!
😂😂 The first statement is so so relatable when you find the thing that has finally worked for you.
Same lolol
OMG I know right!!!!! I still use noxzema TO THIS DAY I remember my cousin put me on to it when we were in middle school. I was looking for a good skin cleaner to use instead of using the bar soap I used in the shower. The ones she told me to look in to waaaaaay back then was noxzema, oxyclean pads, the sea breeze astringent and Nivea cream for moisturizer at the end. And to this day I still will use those items. Yes I will say I have tried to switch up and use other brands to get rid of my old zit marks. And I found this product called Dr. Gross in Sephora's store, and it has gotten rid of the old dark marks. But aside from that I can't stop using my 90s go to skincare products. Like the old saying goes, if it's not broke, don't fix it. 💯😊
love noxema
In the 60s, my derm treated my acne with extractions, sponging my face with a mix of dry ice and acetone and then a sun Lamp! Every 2weeks. It’s a wonder I have skin on my face at all. We used that Neutrogena amber bar soap, 10 06 lotion with a buff puff! Yikes!!!
Here’s a topic for an episode - here in New England, everyone forever has used Bag Balm, which is made in the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont, during the frigid winter - on lips, hands, feet especially. Farmers, skiers, lobstermen along with everyone else swears by this stuff. I buy the wee mini cans at CVS - i apply lotion and slather on the stuff under gloves and socks when skiing, and it prevents blisters as well. I keep it bedside as a nighttime hand/foot moisturizer. Here’s the ingredients in case your stores don’t carry it in the southwest- petrolatum, lanolin, paraffin wax, water, and 8-Hydroxyquinoline Sulfate (0.3%)
I’d love to hear what you think of this NE staple with a cult following.
My dad used it on his cracked fingers, way over here out west in WA state. It’s sold everywhere here🙂
French-Canadian here. My grandma swore by this and always had a large tin at home. I still use it sporadically, on anything dry and afflicted.
The Bag Balm® product was originally used in the cold Vermont winters to protect the cow's udders from getting chapped. It seems the farmers that applied this to their cows soon realized their hands became remarkably soft after using this lanolin-based ointment.
Some people have lanolin allergies, so patch test first.
If you can’t get Bag Balm, it’s pretty easy to find the same ingredients in a lot of diaper creams like A&D. Smells weird and feels extremely greasy but it definitely works.
I'm from Texas and we always used it when I was a kid. My mother bred horses, and I assume that's how she knew about it. It's a weird smell but I still like it today.
Revlon Outrageous shampoo and conditioner. Cindy Crawford made me buy it. Kiss My Face moisturizer. St.Ives vanilla or peach body lotion. Would light my Mabeline eyeliner w a lighter to make it soft enough to apply. And Wet and Wild lipstick and lipliner- loved those!
In the 80’s, salicylic acid was a game changer. I remember using the Neutrogena bar soap.
The Olay Beauty Fluid has a Sensitive version which is fragrance free. I'm pretty sure it has niacinamide in it and it's AMAZING
My family and I use Noxzema on sunburns (which are rare, but do sometimes happen accidentally). It was something my mom taught me as a kid. It feels SOOOOOO good, cools the burn really well and keeps it from peeling. It sounds weird, but it works. I also use it on my face regularly, though. My dry skin loves it. Guess I'm stuck in the 90s. 😄
i've used Maybelline mascara since the 80s. I still use it today. I also still use Olay Original. My grandma used Olay for decades, and when she passed aged 94, she barely had any wrinkles. Her skin was so smooth.
Yep, I was a Noxema girl, except I started using in in the 60’s. Another cleanser I started using at that time was the amber colored Neutrogena cleansing bar. I don’t think they make it anymore, but it was marketed to those with acne. I use Ponds to remove my makeup currently. My mother used it back in the day as a moisturizer.
they still make it!
I used neutrogena cleansing bar in college in the 70s...and yes..target still carries it..I loved the smell ❤❤😏
@@patsalas5452 thank you for the info
I think John Cougar Mellencamp wrote a song about all our teen acne products: Hurts So Good.
My sisters used noxema “for their acne” I really loved the way it smelled but being much younger I was never allowed to use it. So when I got old enough to buy my own I did and I hated it. Left this weird film and dried my skin out so bad. When I was a teen I was blessed by the skin gods so I just used the soap that was in our shower. I think ivory and then wait for it…….straight isopropyl alcohol 🤦🏽♀️. No sun screen….in fact I frequented the tanning beds. My children suffer from acne so they are learning at a very young age the right way to care for their skin. They will thank me when they are older. Ha!
Lol….I used isopropyl alcohol too. Geez.
Ooh, what a trip down memory lane! I was in high school during late 80s/early 90s, and in all honesty, I didn’t have a skincare routine until my late 20s. I washed my face with Dove bar soap (yikes!), thankfully had very little acne growing up, and I don’t even remember using moisturizer until many years later, same with sunscreen! I think my first ‘routine’ consisted of buying the St Ives cleanser, an astringent toner and a night cream by Garnier when I was maybe 27 or 28, and thinking how ‘fancy’ I was being! 😂 I also went through a ‘kitchen skincare’ phase involving coconut oil, coffee grounds and lemon juice (double yikes!!) and thinking I was being good to my skin! Thank goodness for UA-cam and skincare and beauty guru channels where I learned so much, and later certified derms like you Dr. Dray, who have taught me how to take the best care of my skin now ☺️
Ponds cold cream in the green jar( unscented?) Was a staple for my mom and grandma. My grandma rubbed it in all through Johnny Carson's monolog.😅 Then tissued it off. My mom used a wet, soft baby wash cloth to wipe hers off. We were not aloud to use bar soap on our faces. Mom said it makes you look old??? She used that same moisturizer, Olay 15 spf day and night.
I never liked to "scrub" my face. I really enjoy the double cleans method. Thank God my mom made me moisturize my acne prone skin back in the 80's. Even though I thought I should not use any moisturizer. I have no scaring.I went into Cosemtology. Became a Hairstylist and estitician. I worked for a plastic surgeon for 5 of my 20 years. I learned a lot from him about skin. We talked alot about cost of products and good ingredients. Realized Este Lauder was full of 💩! I have used Nutragena for over 40 years??? Cerave for the last 15. I spend less than $200 a year on skin care now including my Differin.🥰
I use my Noxzema still, with no plan to stop, and regularly get compliments about my skin.
I’m much older than Dr. Dray so my junior high/high school days were the early to mid 80’s but I also at one time or another used Noxema, Buf Puf (the original ones that were round before the pear shaped - original & then the softer version!), St. Ives apricot scrub. I was never a Sea Breeze fan (my best friend was so I used hers here & there) but I loved Bonne Bell 10-0-6 toner!! It smelled so good! I also liked the less popular 10-0-6 foaming cleanser that was pink! I would often use straight rubbing alcohol as a toner! And I used Oxy 10% BP if I had a pimple! I also remember using the Aveeno bar soap for acne but that may have been in the late 80’s in college! Good memories! Enjoy videos like this that make you remember those old routines!!
I have used the Olay Sensitive 15spf moisturizer for over 20 years! I always applied to my face, neck, and hands! Love it! Now I apply more sunscreen over it!
My stylist used SeaBreeze on my scalp after a perm to get rid of the smell of the perm solution. I used it on my face, too. My grandmother had beautiful skin; she used Noxema, witch hazel, and Olay lotion twice a day for decades!
I can only imagine how damaging SeaBreeze would be to the hair cuticle, on top of perm damage! Yiiiiikes!
I remember when I was a preteen, I hated the idea of growing up. So when I got my first zit, I begged my mom for Seabreeze products. I was constantly putting the astringent on my face and the cleanser left my skin so terribly dry. I started getting more zits around that time which might have just been my age but all I did was continue to dry out my skin. Then when I was about 16, I had a really busy summer with friends and I essentially stopped all the harsh skin care because I simply didn’t have time. I mostly went home and rinse to my face with water. All the zits I had cleared up. That’s when I realized in my case, less is more.
As a goth teen in the 90s the only thing that worked to remove my extreme eye makeup at night was my mom’s Ponds cold cream 🖤😆
That is a powerful testimonial because we know how much black eye makeup the goth teens use.
I definitely used about 90% of these products back in highschool and I still use Pond's Cold Cream to date. I also used to use Queen Helene's Mint Julep facial mask, their oatmeal facial scrub and anything from Clean & Clear.
Dr. Dray I saw that an mRNA vaccine is currently in skin cancer trials. I’d love to hear your thoughts on this. Not sure what data is available yet. This video certainly took me back! Wishing you and your mom all the best!
I saw an article about this too. I’d love to hear Dr Drays thoughts on it as well. Looks like the company is saying so far it’s showing “favorable” signs
Wow. That’s amazing.
This would be serendipitous indeed!
Toooootally guilty of the apricot face wash. I used to think it was a wonder product since it felt effective and was so inexpensive. I wish I’d known better. Live and learn. Currently using that play spf moisturizer and it’s great. No white cast and it sinks in quickly!
This is like Laura's old Hollywood videos meets Dr Dray's intellectualism and I'm LOVING IT
I was a teenager in the '80s, and I used Noxzema followed by Sea Breeze followed by Oxy 10 Benzoyl Peroxide spot treatment. Thanks for the trip down memory lane!
Wow! I'm surprised we didn't burn our skin off as teens. I do have sensitive skin now😕
The Olay spf 15 sensitive is so good. I've used it for decades and the cream version is great too.
I have always had the most sensitive, dry skin and all my parents would buy me for skin cleansing was Noxema as a teen. My dad would tell me that the burning was good, because it meant that it was killing the acne, so if it burned it meant I needed it 😂 He also kept telling me that the Listerine burn when I'd try to use mouthwash was good and meant I needed the Listerine, because again, "if it's burning it's killing germs, so keep using it until it doesn't burn anymore."
Kept me away from face washes and mouthwash for so long because of those experiences 😂
I remember all those products growing up, especially Ponds. My mother used it every night as a moistuizer. She still has great skin. Now I use it, but not as a moistuizer. We also had a neighbor who used Noxzema. Her skin looked lovely, too.
omg......taking me back. I used all but Noxzema. My skin was soooooo bad. No wonder it never got cleared up. Once I hit 40 I changed my ways and things improved but not great. I found your channel , followed recommendations from you, and I have really good skin now. I deal with rosacea but it is minimally problematic . I love my skin now and can actually feel comfortable going out without makeup. Thank you is not sufficient. You are truly a gift.
Watched my mum double cleanse with her Elizabeth Arden products and so I also started doing the same using Estee lauder and have never stopped double cleansing. For past couple of years I've been happy with clinique take the day off balm. It feels very soothing, then mix with water and it emulsifies. Rinse and wash with vanicream face wash. Done and ready for retin a.
Please do a skin care video on noxema. I remember when I was younger and I took my noxema to a dermatologist because I wanted to know more about the ingredients and if it was good for my skin. She told me she didn't know anything about the ingredients and you shouldn't use anything you can barely pronounce. Basically she didn't know her stuff and she wanted to save face. It was such a waste of my time and money. Please do an in depth video explaining the ingredients. Thank you
I look back at the things I did to my skin in the 90's and it's a wonder that I even still have skin. I used to use Noxzema pads like they were going out of style IN ADDITION to the Neutrogena thick, white benzoyl peroxide stuff in the big white tube that I would leave on my face for like a half an hour if I had one zit. I also used some sort of astringent, the brand of which I can't recall. And *of course* the tub of Apricot Scrub, that stuff was pure gold. And for good measure I ironed my hair with an actual iron.
Coincidentally last night during my nighttime routine I was recalling my beautiful young skin and wondering what it would look like today, if I knew then what I know now. I was JUST thinking how I used to scrub it so hard with harsh cleansers, bake in the sun with baby oil and not even moisturize 🙈 Ugh the regrets 😣
I don’t ever recall ever seeing sunscreen, even as a kid. My mother may have applied it on us once in the morning on the rare yearly beach vacation but we would always end up fried and lying in bed in pain at the end of the day 🤕
I unfortunately used Stridex pads in the 90s. Those things were brutal
no
I remember those! I used those too! That was a blast from the past!
@@hannahm.9881 human body is very resistant
they’re actually the tamer option of all the pads out there. they’re the only ones that aren’t chock full of alcohol
I love that fragrance free Olay moisturizer. It’s only 15 spf as noted but I use it under sunscreen on my face in the AM. And use it regularly after every hand wash when I’m teleworking indoors as a little sun protection and cut down on dryness. I get it at Sam’s club, 2 per set and each bottle is HUGE. So cheap.
Yikes! I was in my thirties in the 90's and I used pretty much every product you mentioned.Noxema On the Buf-Puf, St.Ives scrub,Sea Breeze.I thought because I avoided the sun I was doing good things for my skin.Thanks to your channel,I have really treated my skin better.Fragrance free,Differin,ceramides.I'm 60 now and I'm told I don't look it at all.What a trip down memory lane!😱😱😱
Your power is back! Yay! Happy Thursday!🤗❤️
Yes! Thank you!
1970s teenager - phisohex/derm, sea breeze or ten-o-six, no moisturizer, and Bain de Soleil SPF4 for sunscreen 😝.
SPF4 ...LOL!
@@777dmv SPF4 meant you were serious about sunscreen. SPF2 oil meant you wanted to tan.
@@KentuckyLiz haaa haa haaa!
The orange Bain de Soleil was the best. We were so tan back in the 70’s when it was a thing. The scent was wonderful.
Also a teen in the 90s. I wish they hadn't pushed the 'oil free' thing so hard. A creamy Cetaphil or Ponds would have helped me so much. My fav's were the apricot scrub, Yardly of London and the Nuetrogena facial moisturizer. Plus all the acne pads that would burn so bad, but I thought that's what it should do. Also wore no sunscreen at all, just no one I knew or family did unless we were going to the beach.
Cetaphil gentle skin cleanser is still the GOAT, using that every night makes me feel so nostalgic and happy inside, I love it
The #1 product in my 1980's teen skin care routine: Bonne Bell 10-0-6. First ingredient: denatured alcohol. Fifth ingredient: perfume 😂 bought it by the gallon so I'm surprised I still have skin 40 yrs later 🤪
have an awesome Thursday guys xo
You too!!
Enjoy your day 🤗
This is so cool!! Having been born into the digital world, I was always curious what life was back then with less technology.
we thought we were high tech, lol
My first computer class included going to the "tech lab" and typing out my computer cards to enter my program. Bill Gates was working in a garage creating the first PC's. Only 45 years ago.
Lol...I grew up in the 50's and 60's...I read books a lot 😁😏😂
In the 1950's, my Mom would slather Sea and Ski sunscreen on me when we would go to the beach. It had a heavy "oceany" fragrance back then. Have not seen it in years and would not want to go around smelling of it today. :)
Revlon Lipstick Color #535 Rum Raisin. They still make it. Now I keep it next to my computer for Zoom meetings. Oh, and whatever Paula Begoun recommended in her books. Back then, she was a revelation.
I forgot about Rum Raisin. Ha!, you just brought me back
@Elleanoire Own this one, as well. A true classic that doesn’t go out of style!
Good morning, Dr. Dray and all!
Morning!
George Hamilton had a line of SPF products and "tan lotions." The actor had a shop in Beverly Hills. I wore his products in the late 1990s. I wore lots of hats and layered clothing, sunglasses, as well as Lancomé cosmetics in the 1990s. Other less expensive drugstore SPF. Not sure which ones though.
OMG! This brings back memories! I was an avid Noxzema and Apricot Scrub user, just damaging my skin every doggone day! LOL Thankfully, my aunt intervened in my high school years and gave me the complete Mary Kay kit. She kept me supplied as long as I promised to use the products. So I was introduced to a skincare routine early on and saw results. I never struggled with acne and other problems my friends had and I just thought I was lucky. My friends would say I had nice skin and wished they had it. I appreciated the compliments, but always thought it was strange. It wasn't until decades later that I realized it was the products that kept my skin in great condition. Then in my late 20s/early 30s I started using Serious Skincare and again they sold products in kits. So I was used to following a routine and now at 48 I have no wrinkles and very few fine lines.
Your channel has helped me learn so much about products and adding specific ingredients that help keep my skin healthy and vibrant. So, thank you for sharing all of the amazing information with those of us who don't see a dermatologist and/or need help understanding how products work to figure out what we really need vs what is marketed to us.
but it wasn't normally or widely available at any drug store or any store so quality affordable skincare wasn't a thing in the past. nothing usually is when conservatives run everything as they are not innovative or creative and less health conscious.
My 90's skincare routine included Neutrogena acne wash and alternated with a glycerin bar soap called Pears. For moisturizer, I used the pink olay or noxzema. I also used shuttle lotion that contained sulfur and was great for getting rid of acne. part of me wishes that "shuttle lotion" still existed.
Does anyone else remember Listerex Golden Scrub? It was made by the Listerine Mouthwash people. It was a salicylic acid based cleanser with tiny scrubbing grains. It foamed really well and back in the day I loved it.
Not just Sea Breeze! Ten 0 six. Or however it was written. I have no clue what was in that but it was definitely a toner you could buy.
I love the nostalgic packaging as well and I remember many of the jingles and commercials for some of these skincare items “ beautiful skin can be a breeze, with sea breeze”.I have worked in the beauty and skin health industry for over 15 years and the smell of sea breeze definitely pulled me in from time to time and I know better lol. Thanks for this video Dr Dray, one of my favorites for sure!
Try old staple Ivory Soap body wash which has fragrance-free version and available at Walmart. Good stuff.
Happy Thursday Dr Dray!
Morning!
I used Cetaphil until my 30s 🤣
My 90s skincare routine included several products from Clinique; the yellow soap, the Dramatically Different Moisturizer (also yellow), and toner.
During my teenage angst, St. Ives scrub in the tub was always around. There was another Almay skincare product aimed at teens that I believe had salicylic acid? The tube was white with purple writing/design. It worked for my acne!
Oh, yeah, my sister and I both used Sea Breeze and Noxema in the 70s and 80s! [Then her toddler got hold of and drank some Sea Breeze, so we ditched that forever. Thank goodness he was fine.] The scents are pretty evocative of younger days.
I was a big Clinique fan as I was allergic to the odd thing whereas now I have
My inexpensive DrDray curated skincare and my skin was nice but now it is excellent. Thank you.
I'm a Clinique fan. Wasn't until recently. I tried my sister's yellow Clinique lotion when I was a teen/young adult (can't remember precisely when) and it made me break out so I wrote off the whole brand. I don't know what made me try it again recently, an appropriate routine for my skin, and it works beautifully. I use Type 3. I skip the exfoliating lotion (toner) when my skin is feeling sensitive. Their light textured moisturizers for acne prone/oily skin are marvelous! Dramatically Different Moisturizing Gel (yellow, lotion texture), Hydrating Jelly (clear), and Moisture Surge 72 hour (gel cream) are wonderful.
I have used Neutrogena Oil free acne wash for years and the scent always gives me nostalgia....used to love SeaBreeze but the blue formula....stopped when I learned how bad it was for my skin
OMG! Skin care for acne in the '60's and 70's --Noxema--YES! and Buf Puffs--YES! I think I scrubbed my skin down to the muscle layer with those Buf-Puffs trying to get rid of the acne. It's a wonder I didn't need skin grafts! I can still remember the Noxema smell and my face is curling up at the thought of it right now.
Omg I was just thinking about how your skincare would've changed after med school!
Thanks for sharing! 💗
How about the Irish Spring ☘️ commercial where the Irish guy carves through the soap with a pocket knife (I forget why) and declares how manly it is? His woman replies “Manly, yes! But I like it too!” Her remark popped in my head just yesterday but I could not remember what product it was 😂
As a kid in the 90s my mom let me try her skin care routine, she would use a dove white bar then cleanse again with noxzema facial cleanser, I wasn’t allowed to use the noxzema. Then she moisturize her face with Vaseline lotion and regular petroleum jelly Vaseline on the lips , or sometimes she’d use oil of Olay moisturizer. I miss her . But she was always sick due to a heart condition.
Memories! I was using Noxzema, Seabreeze and the apricot scrub in the 70's. Also Mudd mask which I believe is not made anymore and I loved my Buf-Puf. Oil of Olay was and is a favorite. I recently started using Noxzema again and I still love it first thing in the morning. I never used sunscreen and won't except for what might be in my foundation. I still have good skin at 60 and so does my younger sister at 58 (and she uses absolutely nothing but soap and water), but I believe it's genetics more than anything else because my mom, grandma and great-grandma always had good skin and looked younger than they were even though they used nothing but bar soap and a little Oil of Olay. Thanks for all the great info!
I used 10-O-6 lotion. It was a deep amber colored liquid that was supposed to clean pores. I don't think it did anything to help my skin and left it very sticky. It had a wonder scent though, and that kept me using it for years.
I loved 10-0-6! I also for a while used & loved the lesser known 10-0-6 cleanser. It was in the same type bottle as the astringent but it was a frosted plastic & the cleanser was pink!
@@rebekahjames198 I used that, too-after washing my face every morning and evening, and by itself in between!
Yesssss! My poor teenage skin! 😒
I remember ten o six, and I saw they rebranded recently. My mom said she used it too in the 70s!
I used Bonne Bell 10-0-6 lotion as well. I loved the scent. I thought it was more upscale than SeaBreeze, ha ha. Back then, at Christmastime, you could buy a gallon jug of 10-0-6 for $36.95. I used to get one every year.
Dr Dray, would you mind making a video telling us your thoughts on Curology and Agency? They’re really popular but we’ve certainly seen popular products wind up not being the best. Thanks 😊
idk about agency, but I can tell you about curology. it’s a great way to access prescription topical skincare via the internet. however, it’s pretty expensive, so i’d only suggest it if you don’t have access to a dermatologist or don’t have insurance coverage. their cleanser and moisturizer are basic, fragrance free products; nothing special.
@@rencher013 thank you for the answer. It’s an investment so I’m factoring in as many opinions as I can get!
I used to looooooove Noxema! Every morning, I'd smear it on my face and leave it on for 10 minutes before I washed it off. LOVED the smell and the cooling effect. Every now and then I'd still do that, but it's not a product I use daily anymore.
Queen Helene Mint Julep clay mask was my 90s constant companion.
Haven’t watched dr dray in so long tbh. Glad to be back! 😃
I swear that I have “opposite skin.” My face looks best when I use physical exfoliants (LOVE BUFF PUFF), astringents, and drying cleansers.
St Ives actually had a great fragrance free calendula cleanser. Think Neutrogena Liquid Facial Cleanser but gentler & with soothing herbs. They should bring THAT back !
This is such a fun video! I used a lot of harsh alcohols and I used clean and clear products. Tone soap my mom loves but it gave me hives in the 90s.
Omg! I used several of these. But wouldn’t touch them today. But it was fun to go down memory lane with you Dr. Dray!❤
The Olay 15+ is an excellent sunscreen - I have worn that for years in the
harsh Australian sun - and have never been burn while using it. I like that it is so light that you don't feel like you have anything on your skin. I don't know if the regulations are different here - but the majority of sunscreens are only 15+
I think Oz is stricter in their SPF ratings...as far as I can gather from watching labmuffin videos. She's really good, a PhD chemist, puts science into plain English, debunks fearmongering claims, makes evidence based recommendations.
Sea breeze and St. Ives - guilty as charged as I grew up in the 90’s! Oddly enough I didn’t get acne until my 30’s which is when I discovered Dr. Dray! This channel has helped me tremendously! I’m so thankful!
Man, this makes me so glad that (even through my acne years) my mother only let me use dove soap to wash my face and then ponds (blue lid) to moisturize. She never bought anything else.
I never thought I’d ever say this ( I’m 28)… BUT KIDS THEAE DAYS DONT EVEN KNOW HOW LUCKY THEY ARE!! I started skincare young… I was using Murad 3 step system by 10 and it was so harsh and I had no clue. Proactive was next on my acne journey and of course every single drug store option which wasn’t much and there was no one to turn to to two you what to get, how to use it or when. I feel so lucky to have this information and easy access in my twenties but can’t help to think of where I’d be if I started the real deal young enough. My fiancé now has his own skincare routine and I can’t wait to help my kids out one day!
Oh my goodness, yes, I remember all of these products and used all of them I think. And then some. I really got into the clinic three-step system back then as well. I still love the Clinique exfoliating scrub but I only use it once a month now instead of once a day. I know it’s a no-no but it’s been a favorite for decades.
My routine in the 2000s (my teen years):
AM
-cleanse with water
-Nivea moisturizing fluid spf 15
-The Body Shop coconut body butter
PM
-Lush “angels on bare skin”
-Nivea creme
Once a week “home facial”: toner (can’t remember the brand but it was in a blue bottle and I used to apply it with a cotton ball), St Ives scrub, “steaming” (putting my face over a bowl of hot water for some reason), pore strips, charcoal mask
Could have been worse I guess :/
What a great video...blasts from the past! My mom swore by Ponds cold cream. She always used this to remove her make-up. Growing up in the 70's, we would use Noxema for sunburns. If we knew then what we know now.
Never clicked so fast on a video!! So interesting to see an old routine of a pro. 👍
Noxema made my skin very clear. I haven't used it since the 90s but I'm glad I rediscovered it.
I’ve stopped all mechanical exfoliation this year and my skin is much calmer. Am now strictly chemical and noticing less irritation as long as I use mild products that are fragrance-free. Also, I’ve double-cleansed since 1994, using a liquid creme cleanser (Lancome’s Galactee) that is wiped off (gently!) followed by Cetaphil face wash, and rarely, a moistuizing toner (also Lancome Galactee). I stopped tanning at age 22 & have used daily sunscreen moisturizer since age 28. At age 64 I have fewer wrinkles than a lot of my peers and am grateful to dermatologists who’ve encouraged me for all these years!
Anti-acne skincare in the 90’s were all about drying out the skin.. In Sweden we have an acne cream that had 5% or 10% benzoyl peroxide.. It still exists but now, at least there are some (better) alternatives. I sometimes use it to prevent odours and bacteria in my armpits but I actually prefer some of The Ordinary’s glycolic acid instead since I don’t have to rinse it away (to not have the benzoyl peroxide bleaching my clothes). Yeah, scrubs...
Thank Goodness Proactiv introduced me to salicylic acid and the idea of a 2 times a day skincare routine. I don’t use Proactiv anymore but it cleared out my skin. Yeah, salicylic acid 👍 👍
Mascara.. I’ve been addicted to Lancome since from a very early age.
Fun video! 🌸
Happy Thursday, Dr. Dray 🎀🌸🤍
Greetings Maricel Gundayao hope u r well n Happy Thursday😀👍💜….
Morning!
@@DrDrayzday I used the St. Ives before. I stopped using it after finding your channel . Thanks Dr. Dray.
@@whitneybrown4067 Happy Day Whitney 😘😊
I grew up in Baltimore in the 1960s and early 70s and Noxema was the thing (it was made there). My grandmother introduced me to it when I first started to care about my skin and I loved the scent. We also used it to sooth the skin after a burn. They also made Noxema shaving cream (also in a blue jar) and my dad used it on occasion. I used Noxema off and on until my late 30s when I developed an allergic reaction to the eucalyptus in it.
I used SeaBreeze, Noxzema, the Buff Puff, St. Ives Apricot Scrub, pink Oil of Olay ... I also used a clear TAN ACCELERATOR. Ugh ... we wanted as much sun as we could possibly get ... wanted to be beach girls and spent A LOT of time there. Shudder. I also used the Pond's Cold Cream way back then and still use it for the first step of my double cleanse. Very happy to hear that you approve of the white Olay moisturizer with the 15 SPF as I have that and really like it!
Oh boy! Noxzema and St. Ives Apricot Scrub take me right back to my teenage years. And I actually thought I was helping my skin 🥴. At 37 my skin is so sensitive I can only imagine the misery I would cause myself using one of these now!
😱 I know what was I thinking. I was not! Didn't have a Dr.Dray back then. Thank God for her🙏🏾
I remember using bath and body works country apple lotion ON MY FACE, right after a st Ives scrub 😬😟 all these years later I still have acne scarring and can tell my teenage kids what not to do
I can still feel the stinging from Seabreeze and Stridex. The one product that did work for me was the Neutrogena Body Clear body wash. It really helped my body acne when I was in my 20’s.
Noxzema was recommended to me by my grandmother. If she were still alive she'd be about 120 years old. She used it every single day and night.
I used it too. YUCK! No wonder my mild acne didn't go away!😂 The green and pink mascara is something I used every day! I loved it and still love it, even though I rarely use mascara anymore. For the price, my eyelashes looked a mile long. Every girl in high school had a tube in their purse. Buff puffs...omg I used them every night!! I thought for sure they were the answer to problem skin. They still sell them. NO THANK YOU! I remember copper tone suntan oil! The one that had the dog pulling off the bathing suite bottom. I used that so that I could bake bake bake!! To bake is a mistake!!! So many memories!
Ohh the 90’s. Sometimes I wish I could go back in time but then who knows if I would be the same as I am now.
