I’ve heard do them it the order that is most important to you. Also the consistency of the product. I’m all about hydration so hyaluronic acid goes on first, then niacinamide, then moisturizer to lock it all in
Please make a video on dark underarms. 1. Why people get dark underarms. 2. Which hair removal method should be followed for preventing dark underarms. 3. Treatments and product recommendations for dark underarms.
In short, retinoid, salicylic and niacinamide is the solution to most problems. No wonder since the time I have started using them, my skin has cleared up and also the texture is disappearing. 7 months of consist usage and my skin has renewed. Better than ever.
You guys should show like examples of the skin condition so we can know if it applies to us… cause I have texture still but they aren’t like pimples it just feels not smooth
@@tai-qp5te nope it’s not that either. It’s nothing like dumps or pimples at all. It feels like my face has a like soft sand paper texture and it gets like that so easily no matter how often I wash my face
As an esthetician, I LOVE your content! Always looking to improve my skin knowledge! I think it would be really great if you guys could do a skincare routine (AM+PM) and maybe explain the products you use and why.
I’m pretty ashamed to admit this as a MD/PhD student studying skin disorders...but I let the sun BLAST my naturally very fair skin in my early 20s. now about to turn 30 and I already have broken capillaries, persistent redness, and dark spots. Can you guys talk about mechanisms of sun damage, prevention (like how much sun is too much, what SPF is actually useful, etc) and maybe ways to deal with damage that’s already visible? Thanks!
I really hope next time you’re able to post pictures next to the types of textures skin so we can determine what skin type we have and also can you list top 5 retinoid for acne prone skin?
For anyone interested in the highest rec'd CO2 laser, I had it done after years of trying everything else they rec'd in this video. There are 2 types- Dot and Wave. My doctor rec'd the less invasive Dot during our consultation. Six weeks later at the checkin- zero results- so she went ahead and did the intrusive Wave around my mouth/chin where the rolling acne scars are. 2 weeks downtime and red skin for 2 months. It's been 1 year and the results are very minimal on the pitted acne scarring. Zero results on a scar from having stitches as a child, chicken pox scar, and a sun spot. What it did well on were very fine lines I didnt even really notice I had. TLDR: not worth the $2500.
Scars need several appointments of microneedling and then chemical peel all in office. The at home microneedling and chemical peel can work but takes much longer but doesn't work if you got deep pits.
@@pikachuiswatchingyou I kind of wish I was oily... Lol. I know that sounds weird, but my dry skin is like the desert. It makes make up application difficult because it always looks so cakey. Ugh. And it's just a pain in the butt! 🤦

Questions I (35F, combination&dry) have and would love to see a video on: 1) Enzyme exfoliation. What's enzyme exfoliation and who is it for? 2) Reapplying sunscreen. Should I cleanse and moisturize every time I apply (mineral) sunscreen? Just moisturize? Neither? 3) Antioxidants. Is there any benefit to using a variety of antioxidants or does the niacinimide in my sunscreen mean I'm already covered in the antioxidant category? 4) Acne-causing hair products. I normally don't get pimples except when I try to incorporate hair products into my routine. There's a hair product I love but I think it gives me acne, particularly when I wear it to bed and it gets on my pillowcase. Am I doomed to choose between acne and frizzy hair forever? 5) Irreversible damage. Is it a thing? Like, suppose you're comparing a 45-year-old who started their skin care journey at 35 to another 45-year-old who started their skin care journey at 15--how huge is the difference? Do those of us who didn't wear sunscreen in our 20s still have a fighting chance?
I started using retinol a while back after watching your videos and after a short period of mild skin purging, I'm loving how my skin is improving:) you got me on board!
I have a weird question. Im starting school in September and its the end of june currently. I have heard retinol will make skin look terrible for the first 2 to 4 months so should i start now or should i wait coz i dont wonna go to a new school with ugly face
Healthy skin texture (inside&out) is the ultimate foundation for sooooo many other issue. I'll never forget wise words from London based high profile (in terms of education) dermatologist when asked by a 43 year old lady about botox, fillers etc. "Dear, you can have all the botox and all the high quality fillers we have nowadays. But, without the healthy skin texture, in your 50s, 60s and so on, your skin will look unhealthy and old. Let's first deal with skin texture, then we'll discuss a tat of a botox here, and a bit of filler here&there, but strategically, not overdoing it, since the foundation will have already done most of the 'job' - aging with grace and style". Loved it. ♥️🤗
I'd really appreciate some advice on healing acne scars, dark brown, left behind after spots heal. Would love a recommendation! 😁 Love the videos, very very informative!
I watch Dr Shah religiously on tiktok, I'm so glad to have found that you guys have a youtube channel that goes more in depth on how to care for our skin!!
@Zainab Nadhom Noooooo please don't cry..Please try to lift your mood up asap because this is NOT worth it .. acne and skin texture is a thing 99% of the people I know including me suffer from but we learnt to stop beating ourselves up about it because it's extremely detrimintal to our mental health Believe me it gets better and sometimes all it takes is a visit to a trusted dermatologist
@Zainab Nadhom Yeah I hate it when my mom points it out like I don't check myself a hundred times a day lol. Something that helped me is a leave on salicylic acid gel because I have comedonal acne.. But controlling my stress is the most important factor
I absolutely absolutely love how y'all are speak so that we understand everything. And I absolutely love that you're always saying don't spend too much. That's awesome! You're not making it all about money you're actually making it about the product. And what's in the product.
I have licked a battery, a 9 volt and it feels very weird. I so enjoy your videos and I am taking better care of my skin and it shows. Thank you so much !
Would be awesome if you guys did a tutorial on at home dermaplaning!! Or vids of in office procedures too! Love your vids and LOVE that you guys value evidence based products!
Thank you for all that y'all do, for teaching us on how to take care of our skin. For Y'alls bright personalities, for Everything! Y'all are really changing the whole industry! God bless y'all!
I miss retinoids 😩 I was pregnant and now breastfeeding... so I feel like my skin has been put on the back burner. I’m just trying to protect my skin with lots of sunscreen and moisturizer. But man... my skin was SO good while using adapalene. It truly transformed my skin.
speaking of micro needling: can you do a video about how to care for your skin after you get a treatment done? like the night of into the week or two following? how simple should the routine be ? what should it look like? how long should you keep it simple for? any and all answers you could give in relation to micro needling would be so great!!!
stop all actives and just use sunscreen, and at night after cleansing use a moisturiser and a layer of vaseline for around a week until your skin has healed. (this is what i would do!)
It would be amazing if you guys could cover Psoriasis, I can never find Dermatologist videos about it and ways to treat or help with the inflammation on bad days. I was just diagnosed and it would be great with more info on this topic.
A video on procedures like microneedling and laser resurfacing would awesome. What the treatment entails and results you can expect and average costs would be awesome.
I think the saying is “down the rabbit hole” as it is in reference to Alice in Wonderland. Alice follows the white rabbit down the rabbit hole to Wonderland. 🐰
I always thought it was down the rabbit trail. Think of traveling though the woods like in Robin hood times. If you leaving the main trail to follow a rabbit trail, you soon find that trail goes nowhere. You then have to circle back to the main trail (or the main topic of conversation).
Could you do talk about different sunscreen types? For example, lotions, sticks, creams, powder, and spray? They don't all work that well with facial or body hair.
Can you both please come up with your own skincare line. Been following you since your first video came up and i only follow what you recommend being a dr myself. You guys are honest, talk with evidence and literature, no random influencer crap, lastly both of you please do your full skin care routine video! 😂
Milia are the bane of my existence. I got a retinol cream from my dermatologist for it that has helped greatly. I do need to get better at exfoliating my skin though.
@@jo_-jo3cd That’s difficult because it’s such a sensitive area. I would definitely not want to put chemical exfoliates there. Maybe your dermatologist could extract them or give you something safe to use. I hope you get a solution, I know it’s so annoying. 🤗
So happy I found this channel! You two really make skincare approachable (break it down so easy to understand---hallelujah) and you make dermatologists so relatable--love you guys! Thank you. It's ok if you don't want to...BUUUUUUUT....would you ever consider doing a close up of your skin on camera? Kind of a weird question...but I'm wondering if you have ANY small imperfections? I think of you two as skin gods with no imperfections at all haha....but that's probably not realistic. Maybe a closeup could be a reminder to us all to not stress over if our skin is absolutely 100 percent perfect or not??...I just might need a dose of reality and to be patient with myself as I work toward improving my skin.
I watch your videos and they are always interesting, informational and to the point. I watched other videos by other dermatologists and many times I find them too "wordy." I end up speeding the video. But yours are always to the point. You keep us interested from beginning to end.
I really love your videos and how you always break down the ingredients. Could you make a video talking about which ingredients you shouldn´t mix together in a skincare routine?
I'm probably alone, but I'm not a fan of 'dewy.' To me it means moist, greasy, oily, shiny. Not something I want to chase after 'glowing' nearly constantly from years of hot flashes, I much prefer the 'matte' look. I will apply translucent powder over anything that makes me look like I'm breaking out in a slight sweat.
Thank you so much for sharing your expertise. This has helped me a lot in putting together a skincare routine for my son who has acne. Both my husband and I didn’t have acne as bad as his so we were clueless in how to help him. His acne has improved greatly and now we are working to improve some of the scarring he has attained on his cheeks. Thank you!!!
Thank you so much for teaching skincare routines and pairing that with helpful products. I'm undergoing breast cancer treatment and needed help with new skin issues. Your information helped me know what to talk to my dermatologist about and gave me new products to try.
@@palestar828 Actually I figured out that I have textured skin as well after this video 😂 But I've started to use retinol since the last month and also AHA for the 2 month because of the PIH and fine lines. And it really improved the look of my skin a lot, so I guess it helped to skin texture during that as well. Especially AHA made huge difference immediately for the bumpy look. I started with 5% mandelic for once a week. Definitely recommend!
@@msplumfairy thank you so much! I think I'm going to look into it. It's awesome that something worked for you and you are seeing results! Thank you for the recommendation because I'm so confused on what I should be doing to care for my skin. There's so much info out there and the products on the market are so wide that it can kind of be overwhelming!
@@palestar828 your welcome! Yes it is soo confusing. That’s why I started with the less irritating one. I’m using by wishtrend’s mandelic acid. It is really really good, non irritating and even using it once a week is more than enough. But you should make sure putting sunscreen every day while using. I also changed my moisturizer to fragrance free and alcohol free because I think fragrance and alcohol was worsing the bumpy look. I hope you could get the results quickly as well, good luck!
@@msplumfairy I'm 34 and I just started using sunscreen... That's probably bad and why my skin is suffering 😬 I truly appreciate the advice and I'm going to look into the products that you mentioned and I hope my skin will start looking better. I also have extra dry skin which is such a pain also 😭
Will this help my dry flaky skin ? Which exfoliating product would be best ? Lactic acid maybe ? The dr says he uses lactic acid and it’s his fav how do I use it ?
Love your channel. Watching you and James welsh made me change my entire skincare routine and I'm quite happy with it. I need yo work out on the strong dehydration.
Thank you for your great videos! Could you make a video talking about how to treat the eye lids and eye area? What ingredients are good for different problems?
i’ve beeen looking for this answer for so long! thank you guys so much! But basically mt whole face is covered in tiny cysts. a video on those would be wry much appreciated!
Your channel is really growing! Love your videos. I recently picked up the Paula’s Choice Skin Perfecting 25% AHA + 2% BHA Exfoliating peel and it’s pretty good at smoothing things out and reducing dullness. The only issue is I have three large deep pimples on my jawline now. I never get acne. I believe this can happen when using a peel- correct?
Impressive...so you're not just pretty boys then. 😆 you're both gorgeous ... and intelligent ... and articulate. And I'm even more impressed that the subject of this study was for African- American patients. Well done 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾
The dynamic duo! You guys are the Bert and Erni or Woody and Buzz Lightyear of Dermatologist👍😄 Love your videos and I have definitely learned a lot from watching your videos. Cheers!
Yay! I've been waiting a new video from you two. I've been using the Paula's Choice BHA to help get rid of the comedones and it's so slow going. I know it takes time but it's hard to be patient. Keep making such great informative videos.
Dr. Maxfield, there is no other word in the mind of Dr. Shah for, "Dewy." Let it go, like frozen, let it go! Thank you both for the video. Unfortunately, non of these textures or skin problems are mine. I've left a couple of comments, before I would love to submit a photograph. Dull.. not dewy, blotchy probably from age being in my 60's, no wrinkles and combo skin. I want my skin tone even, brighter.. never thought I say this.. DEWY! Anyway my routine: •CeraVe Hydrating Facial Cleanser for Normal to Dry Skin. •Ordinary Niacinamide 10% Zinc 1% •CeraVe(Purple One) Skin Renewing Retinol Serum, the other was for acne.. Maybe I should've taken the other since it contained Licorice. 3 months now, not seeing any change. So maybe my next step is vitamin C or Azealia to help with pigmentation, blotchy 60 year old skin. Paula's choice CE is a bit pricey, is there another great alternative without breaking the bank. Another question, which is better, Vitamin C or Azealia? A comparison of both would be a great video, the pros and cons. Paul's Choice has a 10% Azelaic Acid Booster also. This is a game changer, with today video, you had actual photographs of different skin textures. Photographs when speaking about pigmentations would be great. Showing different levels and recommendations would also help us fans tremendously, because we can see a similar face to our own. Please continue to do so with future videos, it will also help you with repeated questions. Thank you both.. So Dr. Shah can be bought with food..🤔🍰Cheesecake!
Can an acid like lactic acid or niacinamide routine be followed by a retinol? Also would like to see a breakdown of a skin routine am/pm for oily skin. By the way love you guys, love your channel content and the truths about each product and how breaking the bank for a good product is not needed. Keep up the awesomeness!
@@dora876 she said essentially that there is not enough research to back up the product claims that cosmetic companies are making. What I got from her is that at this point she wouldn’t endorse it as a retinol replacement or even something she would invest too much money on.
Ok, let's be honest here, who has licked a battery? Anyone? Anyone?
I thought it was something everyone did as a kid
As a child, it's your duty to check whether it tingles on your tongue. 🤪
I fell out with the required CYA of “ok, but don’t lick batteries!”... 😂

I like radiant. Dewy is what my skin becomes after I sweat.
Those are great suggestions! I am not a fan of "dewy" either.
I never liked dewy. And honestly, a lot of Instagramers that think they look dewy actually look greasy.
Luminous is my favorite.
Would be awesome if you guys did a tutorial on at home dermaplaning!! Or vids of in office procedures too! Love your vids and LOVE that you guys value evidence based products!
How is it thatI haven't seen this 2 ever on my suggestion list? They are dope. They know so much, easy to listen to and especially easy on the eye.
Thank you for all that y'all do, for teaching us on how to take care of our skin. For Y'alls bright personalities, for Everything! Y'all are really changing the whole industry! God bless y'all!
I miss retinoids 😩 I was pregnant and now breastfeeding... so I feel like my skin has been put on the back burner. I’m just trying to protect my skin with lots of sunscreen and moisturizer. But man... my skin was SO good while using adapalene. It truly transformed my skin.
speaking of micro needling: can you do a video about how to care for your skin after you get a treatment done? like the night of into the week or two following? how simple should the routine be ? what should it look like? how long should you keep it simple for? any and all answers you could give in relation to micro needling would be so great!!!
stop all actives and just use sunscreen, and at night after cleansing use a moisturiser and a layer of vaseline for around a week until your skin has healed. (this is what i would do!)
@@craiyg______xtinaswigmaria6471 thank you so much for this!!
It would be amazing if you guys could cover Psoriasis, I can never find Dermatologist videos about it and ways to treat or help with the inflammation on bad days. I was just diagnosed and it would be great with more info on this topic.
yesss psoriasis ! My brother has it and we still do not know how to treat/control it.
A video on procedures like microneedling and laser resurfacing would awesome. What the treatment entails and results you can expect and average costs would be awesome.
I love how you talk about individual ingredients! Thank you!
I think the saying is “down the rabbit hole” as it is in reference to Alice in Wonderland. Alice follows the white rabbit down the rabbit hole to Wonderland. 🐰
I always thought it was down the rabbit trail. Think of traveling though the woods like in Robin hood times. If you leaving the main trail to follow a rabbit trail, you soon find that trail goes nowhere. You then have to circle back to the main trail (or the main topic of conversation).
Could you do talk about different sunscreen types? For example, lotions, sticks, creams, powder, and spray? They don't all work that well with facial or body hair.
Can you both please come up with your own skincare line. Been following you since your first video came up and i only follow what you recommend being a dr myself. You guys are honest, talk with evidence and literature, no random influencer crap, lastly both of you please do your full skin care routine video! 😂
You guys! 💕Thank u 🙏🏼
I love getting two perspectives in one video!
Milia are the bane of my existence. I got a retinol cream from my dermatologist for it that has helped greatly. I do need to get better at exfoliating my skin though.
tret alrdy exfoliates! Dont over do it or ull get skin barrier issues!
I have some of those sitting right under my eyes and I don't know if (chemical) exfoliating is to harmful. So does anyone has a recommendation?
@@jo_-jo3cd That’s difficult because it’s such a sensitive area. I would definitely not want to put chemical exfoliates there. Maybe your dermatologist could extract them or give you something safe to use. I hope you get a solution, I know it’s so annoying. 🤗
@@NikkiCox81 Thanks for your kind reply and I also hope to find a solution ☺️
I’m so glad I discovered this channel 😍 keep up the good work !!
I partly watch to see Dr Maxfield say "here we go" 😄 You guys will soon hit million subscribers I am sure. Great advice btw as always 👍🏼
YOUR SKIN IS JUST TOO PERFECT!
So happy I found this channel! You two really make skincare approachable (break it down so easy to understand---hallelujah) and you make dermatologists so relatable--love you guys! Thank you. It's ok if you don't want to...BUUUUUUUT....would you ever consider doing a close up of your skin on camera? Kind of a weird question...but I'm wondering if you have ANY small imperfections? I think of you two as skin gods with no imperfections at all haha....but that's probably not realistic. Maybe a closeup could be a reminder to us all to not stress over if our skin is absolutely 100 percent perfect or not??...I just might need a dose of reality and to be patient with myself as I work toward improving my skin.
I watch your videos and they are always interesting, informational and to the point. I watched other videos by other dermatologists and many times I find them too "wordy." I end up speeding the video. But yours are always to the point. You keep us interested from beginning to end.
I really love your videos and how you always break down the ingredients. Could you make a video talking about which ingredients you shouldn´t mix together in a skincare routine?
Hitted the likebutton before watching the video cause you guys are my favourite dermatologists 😍
I'm probably alone, but I'm not a fan of 'dewy.' To me it means moist, greasy, oily, shiny. Not something I want to chase after 'glowing' nearly constantly from years of hot flashes, I much prefer the 'matte' look. I will apply translucent powder over anything that makes me look like I'm breaking out in a slight sweat.
Thank you so much for sharing your expertise. This has helped me a lot in putting together a skincare routine for my son who has acne. Both my husband and I didn’t have acne as bad as his so we were clueless in how to help him. His acne has improved greatly and now we are working to improve some of the scarring he has attained on his cheeks. Thank you!!!
Please do a video on skin purging with new skincare products :)
Thank you so much for teaching skincare routines and pairing that with helpful products. I'm undergoing breast cancer treatment and needed help with new skin issues. Your information helped me know what to talk to my dermatologist about and gave me new products to try.
Someone get these two some friendship bracelets.
Dr Shah and Dr Maxfield is love! They are our answer to any skin care issues
Omg I've always been like "wth is skin texture 🤔" and couldn't figure it out. Thanks a lot for this video!
You must not have textured skin. Consider yourself lucky! I have it on my face and make up looks bad and cakey because of it ☹️
@@palestar828 Actually I figured out that I have textured skin as well after this video 😂 But I've started to use retinol since the last month and also AHA for the 2 month because of the PIH and fine lines. And it really improved the look of my skin a lot, so I guess it helped to skin texture during that as well. Especially AHA made huge difference immediately for the bumpy look. I started with 5% mandelic for once a week. Definitely recommend!
@@msplumfairy thank you so much! I think I'm going to look into it. It's awesome that something worked for you and you are seeing results! Thank you for the recommendation because I'm so confused on what I should be doing to care for my skin. There's so much info out there and the products on the market are so wide that it can kind of be overwhelming!
@@palestar828 your welcome! Yes it is soo confusing. That’s why I started with the less irritating one. I’m using by wishtrend’s mandelic acid. It is really really good, non irritating and even using it once a week is more than enough. But you should make sure putting sunscreen every day while using. I also changed my moisturizer to fragrance free and alcohol free because I think fragrance and alcohol was worsing the bumpy look. I hope you could get the results quickly as well, good luck!
@@msplumfairy I'm 34 and I just started using sunscreen... That's probably bad and why my skin is suffering 😬 I truly appreciate the advice and I'm going to look into the products that you mentioned and I hope my skin will start looking better. I also have extra dry skin which is such a pain also 😭
Once again thank you guys for your kindness 🌹
I'm team "Dewy" there's no better word to explain it!
It's about time you both posted 😊😊
Haha yea sorry !! Somehow time got away from us recently
@@Doctorly No probs I know doctor's are busy bees 😊😊♥️
I’m going to need some more consistency with these uploads! Once in a blue moon isn’t going to work for me 😂😭
Thanks for waiting though! Time got away from us it seems over the last month
Thank you for mentioning sebaceous hyperplasia - very helpful.
Enjoy your commentary- keep it up!
Glycolic acid and salicylic is great for texture! Retinoids are tricky to use and made my skin ultra sensitive in hot Florida, it’s unpredictable
Will this help my dry flaky skin ? Which exfoliating product would be best ? Lactic acid maybe ? The dr says he uses lactic acid and it’s his fav how do I use it ?
Love your channel. Watching you and James welsh made me change my entire skincare routine and I'm quite happy with it.
I need yo work out on the strong dehydration.
The message I got from this was that licking batteries cures acne.😆
Yes, please do a full video on milia! I have a tonne under my eyes and can’t seem to get rid of mine!. Thank you!
Milia - the bane of my existence! I wish y'all could be my dermatologists!!
besides your informative videos, I like the way Dr. Maxfield looks at Dr. Shah
And even Dr. Shah to Dr. Maxfield..
@@realreal4638 tbh it's the main reason I'm here
Huh ?
I saw the title and was like: « yay! Path to dewy skin by Dr. Shaw!!!! ». Thank you for another exciting video! Took notes!
Thank you for your great videos! Could you make a video talking about how to treat the eye lids and eye area? What ingredients are good for different problems?
i’ve beeen looking for this answer for so long! thank you guys so much! But basically mt whole face is covered in tiny cysts. a video on those would be wry much appreciated!
Your channel is really growing! Love your videos. I recently picked up the Paula’s Choice Skin Perfecting 25% AHA + 2% BHA Exfoliating peel and it’s pretty good at smoothing things out and reducing dullness. The only issue is I have three large deep pimples on my jawline now. I never get acne. I believe this can happen when using a peel- correct?
Probably purging
Impressive...so you're not just pretty boys then. 😆 you're both gorgeous ... and intelligent ... and articulate. And I'm even more impressed that the subject of this study was for African- American patients. Well done 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾
The dynamic duo! You guys are the Bert and Erni or Woody and Buzz Lightyear of Dermatologist👍😄 Love your videos and I have definitely learned a lot from watching your videos. Cheers!
You are just the cutest duo on the net!!! Sooooooo nice to watch you guys ❤️❤️🌷 Thanks for the info 😁
Yay! I've been waiting a new video from you two. I've been using the Paula's Choice BHA to help get rid of the comedones and it's so slow going. I know it takes time but it's hard to be patient. Keep making such great informative videos.
I use the BHA and AHA together. They work really well.
Dr. Maxfield, there is no other word in the mind of Dr. Shah for, "Dewy."
Let it go, like frozen, let it go!
Thank you both for the video. Unfortunately, non of these textures or skin problems are mine.
I've left a couple of comments, before I would love to submit a photograph. Dull.. not dewy, blotchy probably from age being in my 60's, no wrinkles and combo skin. I want my skin tone even, brighter.. never thought I say this.. DEWY! Anyway my routine:
•CeraVe Hydrating Facial Cleanser for Normal to Dry Skin.
•Ordinary Niacinamide 10% Zinc 1%
•CeraVe(Purple One) Skin Renewing Retinol Serum, the other was for acne.. Maybe I should've taken the other since it contained Licorice.
3 months now, not seeing any change. So maybe my next step is vitamin C or Azealia to help with pigmentation, blotchy 60 year old skin. Paula's choice CE is a bit pricey, is there another great alternative without breaking the bank. Another question, which is better, Vitamin C or Azealia? A comparison of both would be a great video, the pros and cons. Paul's Choice has a 10% Azelaic Acid Booster also.
This is a game changer, with today video, you had actual photographs of different skin textures. Photographs when speaking about pigmentations would be great. Showing different levels and recommendations would also help us fans tremendously, because we can see a similar face to our own.
Please continue to do so with future videos, it will also help you with repeated questions.
Thank you both.. So Dr. Shah can be bought with food..🤔🍰Cheesecake!
will you guys be doing an eye cream video soon? my sensitive and eczema prone eyes need to know 😫
Love the idea. We have a few active projects but hopefully eye cream in the near future!
You guys are so nerdy- i love it!!
Dr. Shah: send me food in the mail
Me: I don't think this butter chicken will make it that far 😅
Lol for real tho
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤤🤤🤤🤤
Stop eating butter, not good for the skin 😂🚫
@@v.vv.t.t9156 that's why I was trying to send it to Dr. Shah 🤣
If butter chicken ever showed up at my house randomly, it would be the best day of my life 😂 - Shah
You guys are the reason i have stopped using useless products
Can an acid like lactic acid or niacinamide routine be followed by a retinol? Also would like to see a breakdown of a skin routine am/pm for oily skin. By the way love you guys, love your channel content and the truths about each product and how breaking the bank for a good product is not needed. Keep up the awesomeness!
Niacinamide is fine but not lactic acid. It's an acid so it has a low PH. It's best to not to use exfoliants when using retinols.
dewy skin - supple, radiant, glowing, smooth
Can you guys talk about Bakuchiol as a retinol alternative and the cosrx Snail mucin.
Beauty within's channel has it included in Thier retinol and retenoids video. Hope that helps
Talking about bakuchiol
I would love to hear more about snail mucin!
Dr dray said in her video today that bakuchiol is stupid and useless basically. Just not enough research behind it
@@dora876 she said essentially that there is not enough research to back up the product claims that cosmetic companies are making. What I got from her is that at this point she wouldn’t endorse it as a retinol replacement or even something she would invest too much money on.
Radiant is the word I use for that smooth, plump, and shiny skin!!
