Dr. Dray, I've been using that Salicylic Body Spray from Differin that you recommended a while back. It has a little Glycolic acid in it as well. I haven't had acne on my body in over 6 months now!
So glad to hear this has helped
Where and how do you use it?
Is this in a bigger bottle for like the body only?? Lol new user here
@@lifeoflw84 it’s a spray
Good to know. Will definitely look for this product🙂
Glycolic acid can be a little harsh on my skin but at the same time I find it to be very effective. I use it about once a week when I feel my skin getting to be a little textured or congested, and the next day, it feels smooth and baby soft again.
Can u summarize what shs said
I use the Ordinary glycolic acid almost everyday with tretinoin every other night. I’m 47 and I started this routine 3 years ago and my skin looks better than it did in my 30’s. I use a few other things, but I attribute how my skin looks to those two products. I’ve never had great skin and now I do, it’s crazy! Great video Dr Dray!! And yes I had to work up to using both products over about 6-9 mos.
I got prescription tretinoin too and i’m looking to get glycolic acid. Do you use it as a toner before?
What percentage tretinoin are you using? I’m currently using 0,5% but I’m still afraid to incorporate glycolic acid in my routine 😅
Do you use the glycolic acid at night before applying the tretinoin?
@@Camerashy03 no in the morning
@@Dkb522 Thanks for the guidance!!
I have used salysilic acid 2% since high school (I'm now 59) and still use it. My skin loves it and responds so well without any irritation. I do have some hyperpigmentation (no sunscreen in my 20's & 30's) and will try incorporating glycolic acid as well. I just started using vitamin C under my sunscreen in the a.m. Thank you for all you do to educate us. I have learned so much and use many of your recommended products! ❤
That is the best video of what salicylic acid and glycolic acid do. You went through the details here and I really find it instructive and useful. I know there's a bunch of videos explaining the differences between those two but this one is absolutely clear and easy to follow from the beginning to the end. Thanks Dr. Dray 😊😊
Thanks for watching
I thought the same thing
Agreed!
Can u summarize what she said?
I love using The Ordinary 5% Lactic Acid under the eyes. I only do this, maximum once per week at night because I know it can cause irritation if used too often. I have sensitive skin and I haven't had any issues using it under the eyes. It really makes a difference in the texture and smoothness of the under eye area. I really notice a difference when I apply makeup and eye creams. I also use Lactic Acid on my face and neck and have had great results! Sometimes I will alternate the 5% and 10% for my face, but I ONLY use the 5% under my eyes. I also like Glycolic Acid, but it really can cause irritation for me, so I tend to stick with the Lactic Acid. P.S. I tried the Biossance Lactic Acid serum, and I couldn't keep it on more than 5 minutes due to the burning (fragrance). I've never had irritation with The Ordinary Lactic Acid leaving it on overnight. It's an excellent product!! Highly recommend!
Thank you Dr Dray for your very detailed and useful info! Im also considering whether to incorporate SA into my skincare routine. However, im not sure whether to buy it as a cleanser or serum or moisturizer? If i buy SA cleanser and cant apply it around my eye areas, that means i have to buy another gentle cleaner as well that may be a bit over the budget. Btw, Dr Dray, the sound quality of your recent videos has been improved a lot ever since u started using this lovely mic.
I just learned that the Paula's choice 10% AHA has buffering ingredients that make it a very weak acid. No wonder I can use it on my sensitive skin! This was an informative video. Thank you!
What a phenomenal video! I loved the no nonsense factual approach! Thank you very much!
I like Glycolic acid more, it helped me with hyperpigmentation and my acne more than salicylic acid.
Any product recommendations?
Could it remove my tan
@@aliminhas5981it can darken it
@@aliminhas5981if ur a Poc it has a substance that makes ur melanin go up so it will darken u.
What's your skin type?
Dr dray looks so beautiful! I love this new look!
Thank you @DrDrayzday Having a problem as I get older with milia close to my eyes or eyelids. I know you have cautioned using a lot of these products around the eyes. Is there anything that is safe for exfoliating this area?
This video is gold! So informative, thanks Dr Dray 😊
Great video. I found it super helpful and I feel more prepared to know what to get for a particular problem. Thanks so much!! 💜
I really appreciate your detailed explanation of the differences between these. I have sensitive, acne prone skin and have not been able to tolerate either of these. However, I recently started using a lower strength salicylic acid toner every other night and so far I'm doing well with that. Happy Thursday, Dr Dray! I hope you have a relaxing evening. 💞
Dr Dray, what do you think about Loreal Revitalift Derm Intensives 5% Glycolic Acid Peeling Toner?
Dr. Dray, You’re hair is looking fantastic! Beautiful!
As someone who suffers with an oily scalp and dry hair, it's been really helpful to repurpose my salicylic acid body spray for use on my scalp as a leave-on. It really helps to cut down on the oil and helps me go longer between washes.
I have this problem too. I'll have to try this. ❤️
I might have to try your trick! I have the same thing -- very oily scalp but normal to dry ends.
Why not try a sa shampoo once you’re done with the spray?
How else do you combat oily scalp and dry hair what shampoo do you use
Do you apply it in-between washes,or straight after washing your hair? :)
I haven't used glycolic acid but i did used CeraVe blemish control cleanser with 2% salicylic acid and i realized is man that thing really smoothes out the skin pretty well to a wow extent 😊❤. Now i totally agree with you Doctor Andrea we all should read the product's instructions in order to get the results we want from these products and of course addressing these acids to the particular skin issues that these are for ok 😅 and not other issues irrelevant to what these products can do and have nothing to do with their properties. Does anyone's eyes twitch when you see or hear about someone using glycolic acid as a deodorant ?😅. Thanks Doctor it was an excellent,beautiful and informative video 😊❤ Have beautiful morning ✌🙏😀.
This is the first straight forward explanation I've heard regarding these acids & I appreciate it so much! Now, I know which one I'd rather use. It is good to know that glycolic acid can actually help with collagen production, yay! Thank you! 💖
Can u summarize what she said?
I really love that first product you show by cerave. It’s amazing and I get no irritation from it
Your makeup looked great! Ty for the tips. Would love to learn more about glycolic acid home peels
Happy Thursday! Love your in-depth explanation of each of these molecules and their action in the different layers of the skin. Thsnk you.
Thank you! You too!
Thank you Dr Dray! Does that mean I can use The Ordinary Glycolic Acid every evening before using The Ordinary Granactive Emulsion 2%? Thank you 🇦🇺💖
I have sensitive skin and use The Ordinary glycolic acid everyday on face and body . Never had an issue except that it works great !!
Thank you for the information. I never knew which to use for what purpose, so I've been alternating their use. Now I know which is best to target what problem.
Very informative and clear explanation about both salicylic and glycolic acid! ❤
Dr dray thank you for this video. Can I use the Ordinary glycolic acid and the gold bond retinol overnight body lotion at the same time?
Nothing better on a tough day than finding my way here. I use both...looking forward to hearing what you think! 💜💜💜
I replaced my deodorant with glycolic acid. It's amazing. I don't use it everyday. I heard your warning and will definitely keep a close eye out for irritation!
Thank you, Dr. Dray, for clarifying the differences and benefits of these products. Super-helpful and much appreciated.
Great video, cleared up so much. I tried a glycolic acid face wash 3 years ago and got a burn that left hyperpigmentation and have since moved on to salicylic and lactic acid. I use glycolic on my chest, back, knees and elbows only.
Did the hyperpigmentation lighten up with the salicylic acid?
I've been trying the L'Oreal Paris Revitalift 3.5% Pure Glycolic Acid Cleansing Gel wth Salicylic Acid. I leave it on for 5 min and then rinse off. I only started with once a week. This week I did it twice. That'll be my limit. We'll see how it helps with my hyperpigmentation though it's not the only thing I'm using
Thank you Dr. Dray for sharing your knowledge, it has truly transformed my skin ❤
Thank you!!! Excellent content. I learned so much! Both acids for me and now I understand why. 65 yo - started w salicylic acid wash 40+ years ago for acne (Biore original) and never stopped.
Good video as always. I just thought I'd drop a comment that your eye makeup has been fantastic lately.
Had to take a small break from social media but I am back now and love my Dr. Dray videos 😊
Avon products sold a glycolic lotion years ago, that was beneficial to my makeup routine. I had compliments at the time, but seems no longer available. I will search the sources you mention.
I love dermalogica's acne clearing skin wash with salicylic acid. I find i can use this before i put tretinoin on. I also like Beauty Counter's Countercontrol All Over Acne Treatment with 2% salicylic acid.
I rarely see any vids with dermatologists talking about these brands but they've been great for my skin. I wonder if they have paid promotions?
I am using the Korean A'pieu (blue: Gly/Salic). It removed red marks on my cheeks. Affordable.
I use a salicylic cleanser followed by a glycolic acid toner and then I use a gentle cleanser with a retinol serum at night and my skin has been looking great. I’m at the tail end of the purge, but the mix I use makes the acne, and only the acne, dry out so when I wash my face the white heads just fall out. But the rest of my skin is hydrated from all the other stuff I use. I like using them together, and I just make sure I use spf, even if I’m just sitting inside at home all day.
Thanks so much. This video just validated my preferences for my oily skin
Wow your hair looks amazing, I'm ordering function of beauty when my shampoo runs out! Thank you for your informative videos. I love how you stay on topic and get to the point!
You are just an encyclopedia of dermatology love your video s ❤😊
Pretty useful information. Thanks so much! ❤
Dr Dray your hair 🔥 Have a great weekend!
So much helpful information, thank you!!
Excellent information as always. Thank you✨
Great video!! Good info!
Great Video, thanks........Have you made a video about Arbutin for the face? Pro's and/or Cons? Thanks in advance.
So helpful 🤗 Thanks for the video. Happy Thursday 😎🌞🌸🌼
Hi, Dr, I've been using the snail mucin essence from COSRX, I didn't know that snail mucin had glycolid acid, and I've been pairing it with the Cerave facial lotion and I'm getting some redness and irritation on my face, apparently glycolid acid and niacinamide shouldn't be mixed, is that true? I have combo leaning dry sensitive skin, I don't know how to use the snail mucin anymore :(
Dr. Dray, is it okay to combine your recommended serums with Vitamin C or Retinol?
Great video! Off topic, your hair looks amazing!!! Updated hair routine video, please!!!
As you mentioned waxing I must ask if there is anything that may diminish waxing scars. The only time I had my brows waxed the technician pulled off small pieces of skin that healed with a raised scar. I use cerave's salicylic wash that does not show improvement and recently bought Nuetrogena's glycolic serum but have feared putting so close to my eyes.
Thanks very much
Ooo that’s a good question. Maybe she has a video on that? Vaseline might help but not sure as it’s raised
My favorite is using the blend of the two.
Hello! :) What pecentages of glycolic are good for every other day use? Isn't 7% of glycolic not too high for every other day use? thank you!:)
Dr Dray, the lighting & your whole look today is on point!! 👏🏼👍🏼 And love the black flower clip on your mic! 😊
Thank you 😊
Me too ❤️
Oops! She did it again!🎶🎵 Purrrfect matching and let' s talk about *your right brow* 😍 seamless and natural harmony. It makes your non mobile lid look even bigger than it is. 🧛🏻♀️🖤
Her face is over-lit, to diminish appearance of aging. It is deceptive.
Looking beautiful doc
Love your new hair color/style
Amazing was wondering about this thanks.❤
Another great video covering a topic I've been wondering about for a while--thank you! Two things you didn't cover though in your very comprehensive video: 1) which is better for melasma--salicylic acid or glycolic acid? 2) how can you--or should you--introduce glycolic acid into your routine if you're already using a prescription retinoid like tretinoin or tazarotene?
Thank you for these amazing videos, quick question. I have bought the mandelic acid from the ordinary, after applying do I let it sit on my skin all night ( with a moisturizer atop) or is it that I am supposed to rinse it off after a few minutes
Happy Thursday dr dray great video 😊❤xx
Happy Thursday! Oh well, here in The Philippines its already Friday. Been using salicylic acid products since high school. It's actually my go to product when I have acne. My acnes respond/heal well just by using salicylic acid. Now I am adding glycolic to my routine too. This video is detailed and educational. :)
In the UK the 2% salicylic acid wash is marketed as Cerave Blemish Control rather than Cerave Acne Control (US name). I'm not sure if both versions have exactly the same non active (non salicylic) ingredients.
Thanks for the information. I used the Cerave SA Soothing Cleanser.
I get myself a Glycolic acid peel once every month
with Salicylic acid face/body wash used everyday
I have very oily skin and it made my skin brighter and less shiny/oily
What percentage is the glycolic acid is in the peel?? Any downtime?
@@SusieQZee 50% Glycolic acid peel, no downtime
Does it burn?
@@shack6000 wow!! 🤩
Happy Thursday Dr Dray and everyone ! Great video . I have sensitve acne prone skin . A few times a week I use the Beauty of Joseon Green Plum Refreshing toner AHA+ BHA in the am . I find no problem with it . I have started using adapalene evenings ! Have a great day love to mom and Tybee xoxoxoxo

Hi Mary Ann! Happy Thursday!! I hope you had a beautiful day my friend. 💟
Before threading, is it also best to discontinue a salicylic acid face wash for one week prior or is that only needed for other types of salicylic acid products?
Happy Thursday Dr Dray so excited to be here I live for this ❤️
Morning!

Wow! I learned a lot!
I just picked up the glycolic acid from the Ordinary today, with the new barrier serum… my skin feels so amazing tonight - I’m looking forward to seeking by how my skin continues to improve (I’ve started with some other basics) thank you for making such helpful content!!
Can it remove a tan from the face
Another great video. Thank you
your hair looks amazing dr. dray 😍
Totally random but I’ve been doing a deep dive on your channel trying to find reviews on NIOD…specifically their MODULATING GLUCOSIDES, SUPEROXIDE DISMUTASE SACCHARIDE MIST and COPPER AMINO ISOLATE SERUM but haven’t been able to find anything. I have mild rosacea and would love to see you review these products. I appreciate your no nonsense approach ❤.
hi Dr Dray! Can salicylic acid boost collagen production too? I know that glycolic is better but is salicylic potential for collagen production?
You look fantastic in dark colors!
Dr Dray, this is such a great video!! 15:16 Thank you so much❤
Good Morning ❤❤
Thank you, Dr Dray
Great video! Thoughts on the Nizoral 3% salicylic acid shampoo?
She has videos on sa shampoos and I think specifically for nizoral as well
I've always wondered why my skin does not like salicylic acid. I'm not allergic to aspirin, but salicylic acid makes me have continuous, painful cystic breakouts well past the purge period. So I stay away! In terms of acids, I like lactic, glycolic, and mandelic. And for my acne, I like tretinoin, niacinamide, and benzoyl peroxide.
Could you make a video of glycolic vs lactic acid ? Thanks a lot !
Th Ordinary Peeling solution is so good it leaves my skin soft, bright and more even. I am not sure it will boost collagen but it seems pretty strong.
I wish I could use Glycolic Acid but it stings my skin! Thanks for all the great information!🥰
Happy Thursday! 🌸 I use both!
Morning!
Do you recommend the weekly peel pads for exfoliation like from skinbetter or dennisgross?
Good Morning Dr. Dray🌷and to everyone watching😊 Happy Thursday
Happy Thursday !
Morning!
Good morning

15:35 - That is interesting. I haven't really thought about that, with BHA and AHA maybe clashing or just not being as effective as a product formulated with both ingredients in one. Then I'd still have the individual ingredients if I want to use salicylic twice a day, or get a more serious dose of glycolic. Could also just have BHA in the morning and AHA at night, but I'm currently trying to keep the morning routine super simple.
Hi Dr Dray. I use salicylic acid shampoo for my scalp eczema, but I have very curly hair and nothing seems to work. I think my hair texture is making it worse.
I use the ordinary glycolic acid on my face and it works great.
I've been looking for a salicylic acid shampoo. What do you use? 🙂
@@SyntheticGoth Dermarest shampoo and conditioner. I am not a fan. The conditioner isn't affective it really knots my hair. I have to use another different conditioner.
@@patrice1269 Good to know, thanks!
I love the Dermarest shampoo, haven’t tried the conditioner. I don’t put conditioner near my scalp so I just use another brand for a good conditioner.
Shea Moisture has a salicylic and ACV pre-shampoo treatment that is amazing! On post-wash days, I either use a salicylic acid spray on the bad areas or dab it on with a little cotton round.
Which would you recommend for acne rosacea?
They way I’ve come to rely on Dr. Dray is concerning yet rewarding. NOTHING touches my face before I get Dr. Dray’s opinion on it. I trust her with my skin’s life.
Great video Dr. Can I use glycolic acid and salicylic acid together day and night every single day? When I use them in the morning I put sunscreen afterwards.
Great video, love from Tokyo!!
Dr dray for pigmentation which is the best serum to use
Hair looks Fabulous!
OMG U got the HAIR goin on todayyy Dr Dray!!💯😁❤
