Please, whatever the Prequel product is (hoping for a better formulated 1% copper peptide serum but that's just wishful thinking 😅), let it be an airless pump bottle! I hate dropper bottles so much, so messy and clunky 😭
I've been watching you for years and have loved watching the fiddle leaf fig grow behind you! congrats on your awesome brand btw. Love that you created something accessible and awesome for us :)
I liked this type of video Sam and you’re so refreshingly encouraging. I’m almost 63 (September 29) and I’d love more tips on pro aging products and gadgets. Also thoughts and opinions you have on facelifts?
So many of these products are my favorites too. I especially love hypochlorite acid spray. My facial redness is markedly reduced. Keep doing these empties videos.
Loved the video, Dr. Sam. Would love to see a video where you talk in depth about body skin care, any high end or drugstore products that you love, what can we do to achieve the best skin on our bodies, it doesn't get talked about enough.
I love your Prequel products! Thank you so much for formulating them and making them affordable. I also love the Beauty of Joseon sunscreen. It is one of the only sunscreens that I can use without breakouts. I also love their cleansing balm.
I use micellar water as first cleanse and then follow with your prequel glycerin cleanser (I love love love it), and I put prequel ointment around mouth to prevent skincare and sunscreen penetration. I also ordered your new skin barrier cream (shipped overnight!). I’m looking forward to your restocking moisturizer and creating other products, which I will buy on launch day. Keep them coming! 💋
The Gleanser and the Ointment are now staples in my skincare routine !!! Absolutely amazing, products of the year for me ❤ Thank you for creating them !
Just ordered two tubes of the beauty of joseon sunscreen with your coupon code. Looking forward to trying it out and it's a very reasonable price too. Love an empties video!
Nutrafol does work! It helped with my thinning hair post menopausal. I could see results within 2 months with hair density. But you are right, you have to continue using it to see that new hair continue to grow.
Hi Dr. Sam! I can’t wait to try Prequel! I hope the rumors are true about this brand launching in Sephora because the shipping is really long for me 😩 also waiting for the Gleanser return!! My guess is: vitamin c serum!
Love that mascara too! I just ordered your ointment and cream for my mom who has very sensitive, dry, rosacea skin. After a fire in their area a few years ago and being evacuated for 12 days, my mom’s skin changed. Her barrier is so compromised. She used to love the Laroche Posey Cica Balm, but they changed the formula. I am hoping she can get the same effect using both your products.
@drsamellis late to the mystery product, but REALLY hoping for an azelaic acid + retinal combo! 🤞🏻or other Anti aging for sensitive rosascea prone skin ❤️❤️❤️ love all the releases so far!
Love the prequel ointment as a hand cream thanks to the texture! You have to try the K18 oil if you love Virtue's oil. I actually find that it helps with frizz/overall appearance better than Virtue when I do a split hair comparison (like a psycho)
Thank YOU about just using micellar water! Everyone insists you have to use at least one cleanser, if not two and I canNOT. My skin does not like cleansers or soap or even a washcloth and water. From teenage years til maybe right before the pandemic, I used makeup wipes. Then I transitioned to the Bioderma Sensibio micellar water on cotton rounds. I do it morning and night and put a normal skincare routine on top. I don’t usually get pimples or whiteheads. I guess I’m just different!
I've been using K18 for a while for my bleach damaged hair and found it pretty good to repair the damage, although it is not conditioning or smoothing like Olaplex so I always have to use a lot of leave in conditioners and hair oil after the treatment.
Same!! I’ve been using it for years and have a couple back ups since it’s my holy grail cleansing balm. I smelled my opened one and a back up one…NO SMELL to me 🤷🏻♀
I do like this to let us know what you use on a regular basis. I have multiple contact allergies, mainly preservatives and fragrance…and beeswax. Then there is the allergy to avocados which means latex allergies. 🙃 All things soy cause cysts. And I am gluten free. And have rosacea. Whew!!! So I read all labels but love hearing of items I’m not familiar with. To the labels I go!🤣 Thanks for all the info. 😎✌🏻
I cut my sunscreen and other products in half when they are to the point I can no longer squeeze out any more. There is still a lot of product left and I can usually get another week’s use from it. I put the top half over the bottom and it kinda seals it as I finish the rest of the product.
Would you be able to call out if any of these are not pregnancy safe? Thank you for the super helpful video. As a skincare afficionado, demystifying what is pregnancy safe and isn't has been quite a challenge! :)
@@parinazaz4044 It’s great! I’ve repurchased it 3 times now. I def use more than the instructions state and my type 1 hair does not get weighed down or look greasy. The sophisticated coconut scent is lovely too.
Nope. It’s the same ingredients & same concentration, I’m pretty sure. Walgreens makes a $10 spray for like 3x the amount of product. It’s crazy to me that people pay that Tower28 price lol. I can’t do it
Dr Sam I ordered your gleanser and the skin ointment. I wanted to love the gleanser but I find it so hard d to rinse because of its slip, I will try it as a body cleanser. The ointment is great, not too greasy, using it as a hand cream and for nails. The secret bottle I hope it to be a serum with acids, niacinamide, Azelaic….
I know you’ve said formulation really matters, and I see an esthetician who says the same thing -- but she insists her clients need a $72 Hydrinity hypochlorous spray and implies that the Tower28, etc. aren’t good enough. What are your thoughts? For some products I get how they’d be different… I cannot fathom that these two products could be SO different that it justifies the $~50 price difference.
I’ve read a lot of comments from people who’ve never received their products from Stylevana. It makes me nervous so I order from Yesstyle. Sometimes it takes a longer time if something I ordered is not in stock. The longest I’ve ever waited is almost a month from when I ordered the products. But I’ve always gotten my package!
I can’t use Niacinamide it’s difficult to find options for my skin autoimmune & HS. I’m looking into your new body cream w oatmeal. Thank you for your knowledge!
Dr Ellis love your videos if you use tretinoin can you apply the Tatcha overnight cream over or under it and can you please tell us what makeup you have on today it’s fabulous
I think you as a doctor should mention that the joseon sunscreen isn't water resistant - there's a reason it feels like a lotion and isn't sticky when you apply it. It's in the category of daily sunscreens in Korea, which means it's not a sunscreen you'd use for physical activity or going to the beach. The film will break up pretty easily with any kind of physical activity. But it's great as a part of your normal skincare routine.
I bought the Beauty of Joseon sunscreen on Amazon and received a knockoff. The package actually said it was made in China, when the real one is made in South Korea. I wrote a review to alert other buyers not to get this product, but it was taken down by Amazon, saying that the product was certified to be authentic. BS, I know the original product and that was not it. Very disappointed on Amazon, that not only they allow fake products to be be sold in their platform, but they actually defend them.
I bought my last Beauty of Josean sunscreen from YesStyle but weirdly enough my mail tracking said it was coming from Ebay. Until it arrived I had no idea what this was b/c I don’t shop from Ebay so now I’m a little skeptical buying it from even YesStyle b/c of this.
what did I get these tiny brownish spots on my hands mostly on the left one.. on the day I was not wearing sunscreen on them.. they looked red at first but turned brown after a few days.. and how do you get rid of them plz ?
Please PLEASE restock your products, or at least update us when they may be back in stock. Also, I wish the Virtue products smelled better😢. Sorry to be so negative! I DO ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ your channel.
Is it true that hypochlorous acid can make a vitamin C and/or retinol inactive? @Dr. Sam Ellis I bought your hypochlorous acid product and I like it but I need some tips on how/when to use it.
Hi! Have you watched the launch video for the product? If you apply it right before vitamin C, you can deactivate reduce the efficacy of the antioxidant so it’s important to let the hypochlorous acid dry down before layering it under any antioxidant.
I can’t afford $28 for the Tower28 spray. There are so many hypochorous acid sanitizers on Amazon for $25/per gallon. Does anyone have a recommendation?
everyone talks about sun damage on your hair, but I have not found a product that does anything about it! Do you know of a good leave in conditioner with effective sunscreen?
Prequel do not ship to Canada. It would be so amazing if it could because I would love to have the Gleanser and the oatmeal cream one. I cross my fingers 🤞
@@dididididididididdidi Nordstrom, Sephora, and Credo have drop-off bins, and a lot of brands have partnered with recycling companies where you can either get a free or low-cost shipping label to send in a box of empties!
Aaslam u Aalikum ( Peace be upon you).How are you doc i have uneven skin tone and pigmentation on my body so its fine to use every single day these ingredients 7% lactic acid 7% glycolic acid 2% salicylic acid 10% urea 10% l ascorbic acid, 5%niacinamide,0.1% tretinoin , 2%Kojic acid,2% alpha arbutin 3%Glutathione ,10%azelaic acid 5% tranexamic licorice root offcoures seal with ceramides emollient and Vaseline moisturizer
“A little pricier” = insanely expensive! 😂
😅😊
😬😅
When I saw the price, I was like “they do realize this just goes down the sink, right?” Just bananas to pay this for a cleanser but to each their own.
I feel the same when a clothing item or accessory is an “investment piece.” I can’t/won’t pay $600 for a blazer or handbag 😅
Please, whatever the Prequel product is (hoping for a better formulated 1% copper peptide serum but that's just wishful thinking 😅), let it be an airless pump bottle! I hate dropper bottles so much, so messy and clunky 😭
Messy? Are you very clumsy or how does that work? 😅

Tatcha Indigo Overnight Repair is totally amazing!

I also ordered your new skin barrier cream (shipped overnight!). I’m looking forward to your restocking moisturizer and creating other products, which I will buy on launch day. Keep them coming! 💋
have been LOVING your prequel gleanser and the ointment!!❤
I just got the gleanser and holy cow is it amazing! I hope the new product is either copper peptide or a killer hyaluronic acid serum
Love Beauty of Joseon. The formula is so wonderful. It is like putting nice skincare on and not sunscreen. It is truly amazing.
Love this video thank you! And thank you for pointing out what's best for sensitive skin.
Thank you for talking about the varied uses for hypochlorous acid. I had no idea it was so versatile.
The Gleanser and the Ointment are now staples in my skincare routine !!! Absolutely amazing, products of the year for me ❤ Thank you for creating them !

The Skin Smart Eczema Therapy is more affordable per ounce than the Tower Beauty spray. I use it post workout and it's fantastic!
Yes I use that one also! So good! There are quite a few hypochlorous acid sprays available that are much more affordable. 😊
More empties videos please! Love this
Thank you. I really enjoy empties videos!
I am using the same Sun screen you had in your empties. It is oh so amazing!!!
Is that vitamin C serum that is in the process of being launched?
I've been using K18 for a while for my bleach damaged hair and found it pretty good to repair the damage, although it is not conditioning or smoothing like Olaplex so I always have to use a lot of leave in conditioners and hair oil after the treatment.
The Clean It Balm has no fragrance to me. It is the best cheapest balm out there. I love it!

I LOVE your new products!! I just made my third order!
Aw thank you so much for the love and support! ❤️❤️
Love the empties videos!! I think your new upcoming product launch that was in the dropper bottle is a vitamin C serum maybe....🤔
Loved this video and cannot wait until I get my prequel products 😊
I've heard hypochlorous suggested for use after a workout if you are unable to shower or bathe afterwards.
Random question but does anybody know what type of plant this is behind you? It’s gorgeous!
Fiddle Leaf Fig if you’re asking about the big one.
The best shampoo and conditioner is REF, pink one especially.
“Life is to short to use bad skin care and hair care”

Great video! I need to stop watching before I spend all of my money lol.
Hoping that it is a peptide or antioxidant serum!
Dermstore currently has 30% off Neocutis ... get it while you can!
is the tower 28 spray better than any other generic hypochlorous acid spray?
Nope. It’s the same ingredients & same concentration, I’m pretty sure. Walgreens makes a $10 spray for like 3x the amount of product. It’s crazy to me that people pay that Tower28 price lol. I can’t do it
Beauty of Joseon is only on Stilevana original. Love it

Hello Dr Sam, Would your Prequel skin ointment be good after a procedure like micro needling?
She went over that in her video about the brand, but yes.
I know you’ve said formulation really matters, and I see an esthetician who says the same thing -- but she insists her clients need a $72 Hydrinity hypochlorous spray and implies that the Tower28, etc. aren’t good enough. What are your thoughts?

I’ve ordered from Stylevana several times and have always gotten my orders.

my guess is vitamin c serum!
14:57 for Beauty of Joseon
I can’t use Niacinamide it’s difficult to find options for my skin autoimmune & HS.
I’m looking into your new body cream w oatmeal.
Thank you for your knowledge!

I use hypochlorous acid on my psoriasis and eczema.❤
Annoyingly, the Tatcha cleansing balm is not yet in the UK 😢 Have you tried the Bloom effects cleansing jelly?
I would love your professional opinion on a new brand. It's called White Orange. They promote their vitamin c.

what did I get these tiny brownish spots on my hands mostly on the left one.. on the day I was not wearing sunscreen on them.. they looked red at first but turned brown after a few days.. and how do you get rid of them plz ?
Do you think the beauty of Josan is ok for Roseacia sensitive skin. I have had problems in the past from chemical sunscreens.
I have rosacea and I’ve been using it for awhile without issue
Maybeline mascara is good for shorter but fuller lashes , not so much for longer ones..
Wondering if you find the tower28 spray drying to use every day? I’ve heard people say that but not sure that’s my experience!
I have very dry, eczema prone skin and it don’t dry out my skin if I moisturize. I use it twice a day
Vitamin c pleaseeeeeee
Please PLEASE restock your products, or at least update us when they may be back in stock. Also, I wish the Virtue products smelled better😢.
