Notes:
1. She used differin for acne treatment when she was younger, and it worked for her.
2. She started to use differin again a year ago, which is not really for herself since she doesn’t struggle with acne anymore. It is more for her TH-cam followers, to confirm it is still a good product for acne treatment, especially it’s now an over the counter product at pharmacies in the US.
3. She switched to tred, cause it’s more for anti-aging, which is more appropriate for her current skin needs.
thanks
Lucia Ye thank you❤️
Thank u❤️
Your amazing
omg thank you
Long story short: She quit Differin because she doesn't have acne anymore (and she made the Differin videos for our sake to demonstrate that Differin is very effective for acne and should be used), and she has now switched to Tretinoin for anti-aging and hyperpigmentation purposes. She still recommends Differin, but mostly for those with acne.
Thank you
Thanks for the condensed version. At 8:01 Dr. shares about Differin, and her acne. 💕
Thank you!
Thanks for the summary!!
Thanks 😊
Starts saying why at 11:45
AlmenAE 🙏🏻
Thank you for letting
Thank you
THANK YOU. The reason I don't watch most of Dr Dray's vids is this. She makes 30s arguments in 20mins.
Thanks, that voice is painful.
Dr. Dray! You should make your own skincare line. I would buy it no questions asked
Lucia Ayaso indeed!!
Me too👌 #bestdoctor
We all would.
Lucia Ayaso Same Same 🙋🏻♀️🙋🏻♀️🙋🏻♀️Is definitely buy the whole line!!!! Absolutely a great idea!!
It would be very costly and time consuming to try making products for all skin issues :/ that's part of my reason for watching Dr Dray, she gives many recommendations for each problem and different store options.
I don't hate the idea of a dermatologist having a line, some do... but there are limits to it unless you are already a millionaire.
So happy I’ve discovered this channel! It’s just straight up skincare 101 with someone that actually knows what they are talking about! Nowadays a lot of other TH-camrs can have biased opinions on skincare or film reaction vids and stuff like that just for a comedic approach. I think skincare is so important and it should be addressed in a serious way that she does here🙌🏼❤️
My mother bought tretinoin for $5 with no insurance overseas.... it amazes me how the prices are so jacked up here in the States.
Allen K In what country
Jaz .C in the uk it’s no more than 7 pound
You can buy Retin-A in Mexico at $13.
come to Europe. you will be thankful for living in the states. Anything I get here is at least twice the price of what I used to pay for in the states.
@@namirabenbo7251 really? Because this stuff is like I'm 600 or more in America.
Another great video! A suggestion for a future video would be your opinion on Curology. I know you get questions on that. It’s actually what I am using to get trentinoin because I have skin concerns of acne, oilyness, post inflammatory hyper pigmentation and fine lines and wrinkles. It’s such a cheap option, which is why I use it. A video addressing questions you get on that would be a good one. Thanks! Looking forward to your next video.
Of course you post this the day after I buy Differen. Lol
hope it helps you understand why i stopped
LOL I just received mine from amazon 3 days ago:)
Sasha Norton right I just bought it last week
hows it working so far? i think we began differin around the same time
What about you?
It’s very exciting that it’s now available over the counter! I remember being prescribed it as a teen and I will use now for adult acne thanks to your videos!
Yep! I remember seeing it advertised on tv and said by script only. I’m one of 4 kids and the youngest. My parents NEVER would’ve paid for me to see a dermatologist. I basically had to deal with my skin issues. They couldn’t even afford to buy acne face washes. Bar soap- that’s what we had until I was 15, got a job and bought what I needed over the counter.
Thx, Dr Dray! Was particularly interested in hearing that Adapalene works on different retinoid receptors than Tretinion. Actual factual differences, versus the "use this for acne, that for anti-aging" are so much more satisfying to me bc I now have a greater understanding of why a retinoid works the way it does. 🌱
Dr.Dray, I love your videos and I love how educated you are. We benefit from your knowledge. Thanks!
Thanks!
YES! you can’t imagine how helpful all of your videos are! I am on my third week of using differin and I have no irritation, no dryness, and no flairs of acne thanks to your insights and instructions 🤍 i am interested in tritnoin for my hyperpigmentation after finishing differin.
I would love if you could talk about sulfur in a video and how it works with acne or rosacea
wig evaporated she did one just recently
Thanks to you, I found success with Differin for mature skin anti-aging, and adult acne control, for someone who cannot tolerate Tretinoin.
Congrats on 1 million Dr!
Dr. Dray could you review the brand Sunday Riley? I am really curious what you think about it. Thank you
Thank you very much. I thought Differin and Retin-A are the same thing.
Great video Dr Dray!. I was wondering since you have done a number of fantastic videos on hair loss if you might talk about the hair thickening fibers that are being sold everywhere now. Are they safe to use?
Awesome video as always, Dr Dray! I always learn a lot from you. Thank you for all that you do! Hope you're having a great day today 💕
Thanks!
Just wanted to say, thank you so much for all your information, you have really helped me, my skin is so much better, i am so happy , thank you xx
Dr. Dray I just want to thank you for all your informative videos!! I didn’t have healthcare so I couldn’t go to the dermatologist and you literally have saved my skin. I’ve been using differin exactly as you explained and it has done wonders for my skin, no more acne! I no longer buy high end expensive products. Only sunscreen, fragrance fee gentle face was and moisturizer.
Loved the video!!! I always look forward to the skin care sessions sooo! very much!! I feel I have learned alot! Please keep them coming!! Thank you as always for a wonderful video!! Enjoy the rest of your week! Happy Tuesday!!xox
Thanks!
I've been using differin for close to a year now and am so glad I discovered it! Finally an acne product that works for me! Thanks for the info on it, I found your page through your differin videos 👍
:)
Thank you! I have a dermatologist who prescribed differin but she didn't explain how to use it and man my eyes were burning! My face was drying out and shedding and I found you. Love your videos.
I think it is so fabulous that you have found a creative way (via these you tube videos) to help so many people - some 97K :) , and provide MUCH needed education. Physicians are so limited with the time they have for patients in today's health care system; very little time can be spent educating; to the frustration and detriment of both sides. This is a brilliant way to get around that barrier and it is so refreshing to see a young physician who is truly dedicated to helping people.
AND with that sense of humor - "get it at the gas station", :D :D :D. Makes me laugh and cry at the same time (b/c they are lucky!!). While the tretinoin is a bit of a burden financially, I am going to be saving so much money not wasting money on useless crap, and going almost make up free that I think when I add things up over a year, I will be not spending any more on 'skin', and it will be going to something that is doing something, so I thank you so much. OH , and TY for the Good Rx site recommendation! If it is accurate, I may be able to save $40 on my next RX!!
One of my favorite videos of her.
Dear Dr. Dray, discovering your videos today is most likely going to change my life's outlook on self-esteem! Your explanation is easy to follow and very informative. Thank you so much for taking the time to spread your knowledge.
Thanks!
When I first started watching your vlogs I wondered why you were using adapalene as opposed to tretinoin. You were promoting it as an alternative for those who couldn’t get their hands on tretinoin. Your way is very lead-by-example which I greatly admire and respect :)
:)
I have been loving your videos during this crazy time. I have been wondering why you were using differin since it didn’t seem like you had acne issues. I was prescribed driffen years ago and frequent a dermatologist. I want to thank you because my dr at the time NEVER explained things like you. I have to say you must have a great bedside manner with your patients. I wish my derm was like you.
But long post short thanks for all these great recommendations I will be trying some of these items in the videos you recommend. I’ve been using the neutrogena hydro boost moisturizer for awhile but just started this week layering it under another cream and I feel a difference already how better my skin feels in the morning. Thank you for this content.
I would LOVE TO SEE A TUTORIAL ON TRETINOIN. - like how to apply. I have been using it for years but I don't think I use it properly. My face gets red dry and flaky. Your skin never looks irritated. Mine does:/
i showed how i apply it in my skin care routine
Melissa Caulfield which product do u use?
Malek's life tretinoin cream- I have all 3 strengths.
AGibsonJ thanks. Any suggestions. All of my moisturizers are water based and oil free. My pores clog sooo easily
Melissa, sometimes redness and flakiness is caused by applying tretinoin while your skin may still be slightly damp...this the recommended waiting period. Also you didn’t mention if you are applying tretinoin over your moisturizer like Andrea recommends.
You are so caring and compassionate!💕
thanks!
Thank you for all your information. I'm currently on differin for an acne flare up. It is helping me but I do flare up with it. This clarified why :)
Dr. Dray I want to thank u for your time and expertise given free of charge! I have to say I appreciate the extensive detail and clarity you offer here and although I see a dermatologist regularly I find my questions are answered by far better by you than they are in my specialists office. Keep up the great work! 👍🏻
Dr. Dray I just want to thank you for all your informative videos!! I didn’t have healthcare so I couldn’t go to the dermatologist and you literally have saved my skin. I’ve been using differin exactly as you explained and it has done wonders for my skin, no more acne! I no longer buy high end expensive products. Only sunscreen, fragrance free gentle face wash and a hydrating moisturizer.
Ivette Trana do you apply it before or after moisturizer?
You have helped me tremendously!
I’m glad she cleared up that u could use it with benozyl peroxide
Could you say what you think about Curology and if it's something you'd recommend?
Thank you so much for helping me get better skin... I'm smiling more!
:)
J Xing what is your routine
Unfortunately for me, the life stage of acne has continued from 11 all the way to age 50. I have used tretinoin for years. But without an oral med like Spironolactone, I would still have painful cystic acne. Perhaps you can do a video about acne that is decades long even into menopause.
Lisa Auman yes. Same here. I'd love to know what options we have
Same 😭🤨
30 and still fighting it. Glad I'm not alone.
same. about to be 40 and still battle clogged oily skin and been on every pill and cream.
I may have misunderstood. Spirinolactone helped with your acne?
Hi Dr Dray, I was deciding if I need to switch to Tretinoin and I found your video. Thanks for the explanation. Yes, there are few data to show that Adapalene also has the same benefit as Tretinoin. However, I found a paper that compares the efficacy of Adapalene and Tretinoin on photo-aging , and the conclusion was there was no difference in the 24 months studies. The title of the paper is "Comparable efficacy of adapalene 0.3% gel and tretinoin 0.05% cream as treatment for cutaneous photoaging". So I'm wondering, which one is cheaper? I'd go for the cheaper one.
Is Retirides the same as Retin A and Tretenoid or is it more like Differin? I am from Norway and have bought Retirides in Spain and it worked very well for me. Thank you for all your information!
Differin was the only thing that helped clear my acne when I was a teenager. And it was prescribed back then.
Great informative video! Really enjoy your clear and straight forward explanations.
Thanks!
Hi Dr. Dray. Your videos are such a wonderful resource for people searching for honest and professional skin care advice.
Thanks!
I love Differen it works for my skin and has improved my acne. I am not going to stop using it. I love your videos and your information. It does not make my skin dry or irritated. I use a sunscreen, and I moisturize my skin. I use the night cream for anti aging from Neutrogena. You recommended it a while back. I have a great routine that is fragrance free and it just works for me.
All I want to say I LOVE YOU Dr Dray. I really can't thank you enough for all your informative videos. You're the best. 💕💕💕💕😘
Thanks!
Thank you Andrea. I have been following your channel for almost a year and enjoyed all your videos. I even recommended my teen daughter to watch your channel. Can you please cover a topic on vitiligo and it’s treatment? Have a great week ahead ❤️
I've used it for a while and definitely see the improvement. Really helps to reduce redness and makes my skin much smoother.
I love your channel and your such an amazing person so sweet love how honest you are 🤗
Thanks!
Your talks on retinoids have been so helpful. I am 37 and just beginning to dip my toes in the retinoid pool lol I am considering trying Differen because I am very oily and get black heads, but I also want to start gearing my skincare towards "anti-aging". Thanks so much for all the useful information 😊
:)

This answers so many questions I had!!! Thank you 😊 loved the detailed explanation
:)
Do you use differin ? I’m thinking of starting but I’m scared lol . 😩
Seriously, thank you so much for disseminating the gospel of otc adapalene!
:)
So interesting and helpful. Thank you
Thank you!! Always great info! I follow your Differin skincare routine to the T and it’s changed my skin for the better! I know you’re not crazy about cosmetics, but what can you tell us about non-toxic cosmetics and the role they play in cancer. My 26 yr old sister has been diagnosed with breast cancer and it’s caused everyone in my family to reconsider everything from diet to the daily products we use. Are non toxic cosmetics all a marketing scheme or are there actually things out there that are better than others as far as that goes? What do you suggest! Always grateful for your channel 🌸🌟😊
Love the info! Great job dr dray! Thanks so much
:)
I am very blessed to have found differin through your channel. I've used many over the counter products before but none of them seemed to be effective. However, after following your differin skin care routine and regular sunscreen my skin greatly improved. Thank you Dr. Dray for all the effort you put on towards educating the public on skin care.
:)
tretinoin 0.05% cream in egypt cost only 0.70$ and anyone can get it over the counter
Same in India
whatttttt lol Girl send me some hehehe
Skincare Humanitarian. I love it. Thank you.
:)
You are the kindest most loving beautiful favorite doctor on here .you are posting very accurate information very helpful
Just started Differen today. Hopefully it works. I’ve been watching all your acne videos to make sure I’m using it correctly. Let’s hope this works.
Thank you so much for the explanation and for the reason so many of us resort to Differin given our prescription drug industry in the US. For that reason, I'll be sticking with Differin, at least for now. I am seeing some anti aging and sun damage imporovements with Differin on my skin. If you could continue letting us know how retin A is working for you on the anti aging, sun damage and melasma front, I sure would appreciate it.
:)
I am from Israel, the prescription tritionid (0,025%) cost me about 4$ for 20g. Sorry to hear that in America such important drugs are not accessible to everyone.
Catherine Catherine they are low cost if you have acne not for anti age
@@luciemedici Not true. Many insurances don't cover it even for acne if you're over a certain age, or will require a prior authorization.
I love you Dr. Dray! You help me a lot
I love your videos and have learned so much. Thank you Dr. Dray!!!
thanks!
Hmm... I'm starting to rethink my view of Paula's Choice...
For anti-aging purposes, would you recommend tretinoin or tazarotene? What's the difference between the two?
You've done a great service by showing people how to use Differin, by giving them tips about using other products with it and answering so many questions we all have when using a medication. I don't believe I'm alone when I give you a huge thank you, doc! Rita
Thanks Ms Rita :)
Haha it makes sense now! I was also wondering why you were using Differin as u have pretty clear skin:) excited to hear about your tret improvements!
:)
In Brazil we can buy tretinoin at the counter, whatever de percentage, no prescription needed. I've been using for years, it is amazing!
I know I bought mine in Barcelona, I am sure you can buy it in Argentina as well. What is the brand name in Brazil.
Well you guys suck! 🤣🤣🤣😉
Congrats
@@mariaroldan4200 Vitacid or Vitanol A
@@mariaroldan4200 how is it called? I'm gonna be in Spain soon. thanks!
2 years later, this product is now effective for all 3 skin conditions
Is this comment in regard to Differin aka adapalene?
Wait really? It's proven to help with anti aging as well?
@@LoveABun dr dray did a video about a year ago.
Excellent content! Thank you Dr. Dray.
Thanks!
I absolutely love you , your reviews , and educational videos! Thank you 😊
Way to go Doc... Keep inspiring! 😊
I just want you to know that because of you I have started using less foundation, and I go without it for days. Instead, I just apply cerave am with spf 30 about 3 times a day.
I work in an office, so I don’t see the light of day a lot, but I enjoy the moisture that the lotion provides, and it has helped me be less oily!! It’s made me realize that my skin needs more moisture than I thought. Clinique only gave me a gel moisturizer, which wasn’t enough, especially in the winter as I got dry patches! Now I use the gel on a wet face, and then I seal it in with a cerave lotion (am or pm). My skin is thanking me! It looks more...alive? My lips are happy too :) as I am using less lipstick and more moisturizers and spf.
Moral of the story: make up covers imperfections, but the right skin care prevents them and corrects them! I have kept my foundation for special occasions and night time if I am going out.
This is what I was waiting to hear!! I just revamped my skin care... And I too underestimated the moisturizer... Because I'm oily/combination... So I'm changing that and hope it helps everything!!!
Also... Sounds like I've chosen some of the same products!! They still working for you? What's your routine?
:) I used to wear foundation daily even if I was just going to a store for five minutes. then I started mixing it with moisturizer, then started using bb then cc cream, the other day I just wore a sunscreen with hylauronic acid and I swear my skin glowed and looked 100% better than my caked on makeup lol. Now I wear it mostly just for events or going downtown. It makes a difference to at least reduce because my face seems softer and more alive now.
I have a question, do you have to wash your face before reapplying CeraVe AM? (or any sunscreen for that matter)
Or is washing it with water just enough?
Saw your upload,time to take a break and watch Dr.Dray💖
Happy Tuesday :)
Hi Dr. Dray,Just sending a little note to say I love you TH-cam channel I am learning a lot about my skin
Thanks!
i have used differin for ages!! & it’s made my skin 100% better!
yolo florence how do you apply it before or after moisturizer ? How many days?
Rita Sharqawi after moisturizer. Never apply it on dry skin it will cause irritation. I personally use it 5x a week at night.
yolo florence Hi! Since you’ve used Differin for so long, did you have an initial purge? If so, did you ever have another purge during your use of Differin?
@@ritasharqawi7367 I apply differin 0.3% first then moisturizer 30 mins later
I have been using it for two weeks my acne looks worse and red is that normal??
Love you and your channel Dr.Dray! I just bought a face wash with glycolic acid in it I was jw if that’s okay to use before a retinoid like adapalene? I will be greasing my mucosal membranes! Lol, but on a serious note, thanks for all you do! 💕
You have a wonderful way of explaining to you're viewers , that's easily understood,so we make better choicest for ourselves. So we don't spend hard earned dollars on products that try to sell hope and promises in a bottle, but do little good.
Keep up the great work 😊 😊
:)
Hello Dr. Gray, got mine today. I'm suffering from hormonal acne and I'm following your skincare tips using Differin Adapelene. Thanks!😘😘😘
Are there any new studies or data about Differin and anti-aging now in 2020?
I'm curious about this too!
Unfortunately, I am a 35 year old still grappling with acne, differin changed my skin completely, and I am one of those subscribers that found you while doing my research on differin. I started on Jan 1st of this year and it is three months later (the 12 weeks) to really see how its been working. You really help me understand it and also what to use it with!!! I will continue with differin and I’ll continue watching your content!! Thank you Dr Dray 💕
:)
Hi! May I ask your skin type? Are you oily and sensitive?
did you ever experience dryness in your eyes or watering or any vision issue due to retinoid use ?
I’ve been trying differin for two weeks now. I’m noticing it help a little bit with breakouts. But it’s really really drying out my skin. Flaky and burning occasionally after I put the differin moisturizer on after. What am I doing wrong? I’m desperate to use something. My skin must be super super sensitive to products 😩 someone help please!!
I started out with the OTC Differin for about 6 months before transitioning to Tretinoin. I found this helped with the irritation most people experience.... thanks again for the transparency!
:)
You’re a great doctor! 👩🏻⚕️💕
Thanks!
i'm more interested with the collagen boosting property of tretinoin. Too bad it cannot be combined with benzoyl peroxide unlike adapalene?
Dr dray, you have the most beautiful skin
I have ever come across 😊
thanks you
With my sensitive skin and eczema, I would have never braved trying Differin without your videos. Thank you 😊
:)
I listened intently to your presentation and you are, obviously not just very personable, but a truly reliable source of information and for that a million thanks. My sister and I have radically different skin profiles; her skin is dry and as a sun worshiper in her early '60s we share good genetics but she is looking for something that belatedly will address some hyperpigmentation and still keep up a healthy moisturizing routine that protects her skin -- and yes sunscreen is vr much part of our routine. I inherited oily skin from my dad, and have not courted the sun unless it involved swimming. Both of us have currently elected to work with Retin-A (easier to spell). There are other less educated and informed 'professionals' pointed out to me by my sis who go Damn the Torpedos and create a kind of skin hell that I cannot countenance. As I understand it, and don't want to be a bore, this is a life-time commitment that may, depending on one's level of vanity or need for sun protection, go on and on and what is wrong with 1x week, building up gradually. For people, both women and men, in the public eye, of course there are botox and fillers and a great deal of precaution should be taken in selecting a practictioner (SP) who truly knows what they're doing. I have developed hooded upper eyelids; someone posted that a tiny smudge of Retin-A returned her eyelids to a pre-existing state; the alternative is actual surgery, everyone's elective given their pocketbook. What I like best about your videos is that you are candid and present information in a way people get; you never talk down to anyone. So the usual tx!!
Dr. Dray, can you please make a video about erythromycin, clindamycin and zinc acetate in treatment of acne.
Reem Ali was
providence51 what? I didn’t get you.
I am a fan of her doing a video on this!
Agree... Dr. Dray, can I use clindamycin together with tretinoin?
yes, clindamycin is used in the morning and tretinoin will be used at night time. NEVER USE TRETINOIN IN THE MORING!
also make sure you have a good mineral sunscreen as your skin will be photosensitive as the tretinoin is regenerating newer cells :)
Acne, wrinkles and dark spots. I got it all covered! Thanks to you Dr. Dray, I'm going straight for the Tretinoin.
how have you liked it?
Can you update on the results please
Perfect timing! I'm finishing up my tube of Differen and just signed up for Curology :)
How do you get curology? Bc it's not available in my area :(
Nicole Robinson Hi, I just signed up on Curology.com. As far as where they ship, I am not certain. Check out their website. I hope you can get it from their website. Good luck!
Hi Guys! I'm watching this in the summer of 2021, After this video I'm now thinking of trying Trentinoin vs differin. So glad I'm watching I found you this year, I'm now a subscriber for life 😁. You are so helpful, can't stress or thank you enough for being so detailed. Blessings. Thank you 😊💗
Dr Dray please answer - would you recommend Differin or Tretinoin for use after a successful course of accutane/isotretinoin on mild acne in a 28 year old? I am left with redness (I don’t know if it is hyperpigmentation or PIE) and some minor pitting. Thank you for your insightful videos!
WE LOVE YOU DR DRAY!!!!!!!!💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗
Thanks!
My dermatologist use to prescribe this for me. It’s the only thing that really works for me. So happy it’s OTC.
Love the advice here!
Thanks for watching!
I can speak for myself when ai say THANK YOU for your help.
Mary Hanger 💙
Hi Dr Dray I want to use differine for my acne but my skin area is dry and clogged and i thought that i have damaged skin barrier, should i use differine on the area regardless the dry patch? So should i restore my skin barrier first or if do both would the differine work?
Thank you for your differin videos they have helped clarify any confusion I have had with differin.
:)
