Love your question regarding ingredient penetration. I would take it one step further in asking about how the cells 'communicate' with each other. For example, if I put a small dab of Retinol on my cheeks, then spread it around, by the time my fingers get to the lower cheek/jawline area, very little (if any) of the retinol product is being applied to the skin surface. Will the cells which are receiving the 'heavier' product application spread those benefits to the areas receiving very minimal/none of the product (hopefully that makes sense). Would also love Dr. Idriss to go into a little more background info when she says one brand is less desirable than another ... example: why one brand of micellular water is better to use/does a better job (Bioderma) than another (Garnier)(I may not have the brands correct). Why?
Layering products are good depending on age. We know collagen depletes starting in our early 20's or earlier. Layering from our thirtie's or earlier. A Lamellar skincare is best for skincare going to the deeper layer's of the skin and keep's the products working as long too.
I'd love to see videos doing deep dives on different categories of procedures performed by cosmetic dermatologists. Fillers, botox, lasers, obviously, but maybe more. Really getting thorough education about the basics, exactly how they work, dangers, pros, cons, how they work best, etc.
Maybe I'm late to the party, but an honorable mention is the Spanish company Niche Beauty. They have 3 ceramide products. A moisturizer and 2 serums. One even has 3% ceramide, which I haven't seen in other brands yet. I know: more isn't always better, but in this case it is. It instantly calms and heals my skin. Maybe it's worth looking into it.
I would love you to do a reel on " burning face syndrome ". I went from having clear, beautiful skin that strangers would compliment me on to a red, blotchy face that flares and feels like a severe sunburn. I've had this for the last three years and no dermatologist has been able to treat it. It's really impacted my quality of life and mental health ❤🙏
I know someone too who said it's not her skincare.... i think she realized she was having an inflammatory diet (high sugar and gluten) and her liver was a bit weak/ needed help in cleaning out what she was putting in.
❤🎉I am loving the Aveno balm…because it is actually silky and smooths in light, non-greasy manner, and has a wonderful matte finish. This is my new holy grail, because I HATE the greasy (aka “glowy”) trend = yuck. I use this after everything at night, but you could use during day since it is light and matte…LOVE‼️❤️❣️Amazing for neck and under eye, where you don’t want greasy transfer of product- chef’s kiss‼️💋💋💋
I started using the aveeno triple oat balm because of you and I love it SOOOOOOOO MUCH! I put it on after my retinoid to lock everything in and I swear it has made the biggest difference. Not only am I tolerating the retinoid better, but my skin is less red and irritated looking in general. Thank you SO much for that recommendation.
@@Lisa-lisa-lisa-lisa1 I've used the triple oat serum. Serums typically go on under moisturizers (moisturizers are last except sunscreen). Personally, I wasn't a huge fan of the triple oat serum, I didn't think it did much for me. I was talking about the triple oat balm, which is more like the serum mixed with vaseline. I use it at night with my retinoid and I get ZERO retinoid irritation now.
Thank you so much for providing the most incredibly amazing data on skincare!! Ceramides have helped me a lot with my damaged skin barrier. Absolutely absolutely love your videos!!!❤
Thank you so so much for providing free education and greatly appreciate you sacrificing your time to help us. You explain products clearly and succinctly :)
I would like a video on what to avoid. What are red flags in products? I saw some ads for a Ren overnight recovery balm. The ads claim it's great for rosacea. It looks occlusive and has perfumes, so I'm pretty sure it's the opposite of what my rosacea prone skin needs. Thanks for all the new ceramide info! Pretty sure that all my newly acquired ceramide products have been what have made the biggest improvements to my skin!
Hi doc, can you do a video addressing the issue of retinoid usage around the eyes might cause damage on meibomian glands as stated by some eye doctors online? I saw some opthalmologists or eye doctors online telling people to avoid retinoids around eyes because you can damage the meibomian glands, not damaging the skin but the eyes.
Yes, that would be interesting. Avene has an eye product that include retinaldehyde, so a clip on retinoid usage around the eyes would address concerns that some of us have. Merci!
@@nadoh6253 Yes, because most dermatologists avoid having to talk about the effects on the eyes (meibomian glands) , and only talk about the potential sensitivity skin wise. Some eye doctors online even go extra length by saying that even retinoid eye creams are also not safe to be put close to the eyes, not because of the skin sensitivity but because of some people develop meibomian glands dysfunction due to retinoid usage around eyes.
Thank for making this video after work eventough u must be exausted🙌 Could you do a video about antioxidants other than vit C pls? I also would LOVE videos about the hair, or like analizing hair product like shampoos, olaplex 3 o K18 Thank you very much greetings from Barcelona!
I'm just here to say that you've completely saved my skin. 100% all you. Did i try other channels first? Yes. Did i buy a bunch of products based on their recommendations? Heck yes. Did any of them work nearly as well on my skin as the ingredients and product that you have recommended? HECK NO. So THANK YOU for all of your videos and your passion!!
Hi, my recomendations I would like to see: - You use retinoids while not pregnant, but what if you find out you are pregnant? They stay in the system for some time, is it dangerous for the new tiny developing baby? What are bakuchiol (or other) replacements for low retinol (retinal) dosage, for middle and for high dosage? I would love examples. That could be a long video. - For shorts I would like to see: darts spot treatments for acne (do they really work?), fast remedies for damaged skin barrier (and how long to use them before introducing the actives back), men and kids skincare examples (I always wonder why I need SPF in the normal winter day but not my hubby or kids or what is the age for kids to start using it regularly, same with other skincare for kids?), more funny videos about real male (and female) skincare failures,... Thank you! ❤️
Add someone who had a broken skin barrier I suggest the CeraVe night renewing cream or the Walgreens version. I use CeraVe at night and the store brand in the morning. But if you're on a tight budget I suggest mixing the la-roche posay triple lipid ap Baum and the regular CeraVe moisturizer and just sealing it in with Vaseline. These all work the same if you get the exact products or do something very similar. Also if you wanna spend more the Skin fix triple lipid plus cream is so so similar to the skinceuticals one. Money is an important factor and that's why I take care of my skin at home and learn my ingredients. Also I'm thinking of going back to esthetician school this time a good school one they a doesn't get shut down
I'm indian. Bought the purito one when I had severe acne due to lack of vitamin D..I was using adapalene which caused my skin to peel nd become extremely sensitive to touch and red.. Even putting g water or sweat used to burn. Only thing that would soothe my skin is the purito sleeping mask.. That's when I fell in love with it. Since it's my first cream on ceramide, so I can't compare it.. But it's a good one. Just leaving it here for anyone looking for personal experiences.
Hii Dr. Shereene! ✨💕😊🙏 Can you please share some topical ways of treating droopy lips and smile lines for a person in their 30's ? that would be very helpful !!
I am in desperate need of some hair care product recommendations! The what, why and how! Shampoos/conditioners/ leave in/masks etc! I would also love for this to be in a longer video with some ingredient pointers/knowledge. You have amazing videos for skincare but I would love to deep dive into good hair care as well!
Dr. Idriss, the packaging looks very high end, which is what I expect coming from you!!! Now I am curious, if you would be so kind to do a video on Ablative Laser skin resurfacing, including the reduction of sun damage, combined with PRP. I have witnessed it first hand probably a dozen times. But at age 69, it will be for me this time, and things might have evolved over the past four years since I was in an office while it occurred. Whatever you decide, I will be back with my hands folded on my desk patiently waiting for your next class to begin. Seriously though, you do an extraordinary job explaining in depth for all your little skin nerds, every aspect, every detail, and effects of the areas you chose to cover that NO ONE CAN TOUCH YOU. As someone who hates being second, that quality is admirable, and necessary today. You know you're good Dr. Idriss, but you still need to hear it from us, and I have no hesitation in spelling it out. Have a wonderful week!
RNW ceramide plus serum is AMAZING! All the ceramides, 8 peptides, niacinamide, oat extract, beta-glucan, squalane and more. Non greasy and not expensive. I live by the arctic circle and winters are really cold and dry and that serum is my holy grail. Cant live without it during winter
I've been using curel daily body lotion for years, and my skin can never be thankful enough for it. It also contains ceramide that helps keep my skin hydrating for hours during winter.
I had an emergency total hysterectomy a couple of months ago. My skin is already becoming more dry and sensitive. Please discuss changes in the skin during menopause. As well as what we can use and or do to correct these changes. Thank you! Happy Holidays & Many blessings!💖💖💖
Shiny/dewy, I think you look radiant!Have you tried a more blue-red (like a blood red)? I think that would look amazing on you. YSL’s tattouage couture are my lifelong favorites, highly recommend.
Omg FAB is the best!! My son has eczema and could never use aveeno because it would burn his skin but the first aid beauty cream is absolutely magnificent!
Thank you for another wonderful video - i'm learning so much! I would love to hear more about everyday hair care, especially for wanting to grow it long and preventing or repairing broken or very dry ends. 💕
Please please *PLEASE* do a Long-form video on Psoriasis!!! 🙏🌟 I swear Psoriasis is the most overlooked skin condition, by All brands and any Derm that has an online presence. I know it's likely because Psoriasis is an auto-immune issue as well as just manifesting on the skin, and is Incredibly difficult to treat, due to underlying issues and really needing to see a patient in a clinic/office-setting. But people with Psoriasis want good skin too!! And they want to be able to use products that will have As Much of an impact on their skin as is Realistically possible. Many Psoriasis sufferers literally live their lives hiding away. And there's so much judgement and stigma and Shame associated with it. Please do a deep-dive on it!! What it is, the structure of the skin, the other immune issues, treatments that work, things that should 100% be Avoided, Products that will help calm inflammation... etc. That would be an amazing gift to people with Psoriasis, Dr Idriss 🙏🌟🎄
Hello!!! Skin nerd here!!! 🤓First of all, your skin always looks flawless, shiny or not! ✨ have you ever heard of skin care ingredients that shouldn’t go around the eyes, that can cause meibomian gland, dysfunction, or dry eyes? I have been diagnosed with blepharitis, ocular rosacea, and demodex mites in my eyes. I know it sounds gross but so real. Ugh! 🤪 My skin now feels irritated on my face with slight redness. Borderline rosacea. This all happened to my eyes and skin one month after doing a parasite gut cleanse… which I know sounds even weirder than all the eye issues. So now I am left with blurry vision, double vision, and Extreme dry eyes to where I can no longer wear make up or my contact lenses and it’s been a year of this going on. 😢 I’m sharing my story because I think it’s so important for people to know the ingredients and skin care and you are the expert and that there are people out there that have skin issues and dry eye conditions and they all seem to correlate… I am learning that these eye conditions and rosacea and skin issues go hand-in-hand. I am now receiving IPL on my eyes and face to try to help with all of these eye issues and skin issues. I’ve heard that RetinA, Retinal or any kind of retinol’s, parabens or Phenoexythanenol can cause mibomian gland dysfunction, and clog up, tear ducts and cause severe dry eyes. Sorry for the long message just thought maybe you could shed some light and help all out there with these issues. Lastly, I would like to order your vitamin C cream that has ceramides in it. With all that I have told you do you think that would be good for my skin? I feel like my barrier has been compromised because of all of this and I found out the current one I am using has some of these ingredients in it that are bad for dry eyes. I notice yours does not have those bad ingredients. Please let me know. Thank you so much! One of your new nerds!! 😜😊
I've never heard of the Minimalist brand, but the rest of the ingredients in this moisturizer are also great... especially at that price! So happy to have discovered them because of you!
Your videos are THE BEST!! Can you please do a long video about the dangers (and any positives) about essential oils in skincare, especially when it comes to the face?
Most of Cosmetic Brands especially in India refer ceramide as 1,2,3,4,5,6 ...and so on . 1 Hydrophilic - Ceramide AP (Ceramide 6 ) - Ceramide NP (Ceramide 3) 2 Hydrophobic - Ceramide EOS (Ceramide 1) - Ceramide EOP ( Ceramide 4) - Ceramide NS (Ceramide 2)
@@jr-pr9lw Your comment helped me realize that I’d misstated about the cleanser. It doesn’t contain ceramides but works well for me. The ceramide containing cleansers are from Pacifica Beauty and Ceramedx.
Show idea: How can people with Rosacea, Eczema, extremely dry skin, etc. safely use retinoids? Typical advice is that we shouldn't, but there HAS to be a way!
I have rosacea, reactive and dry skin and I love Geek and Gorgeous A-game 5. It's a fragrance free retinaldehyde with a short ingredient list. I started with using it every 3 days.
Hi Dr. Shereene! Often people from ethic backgrounds can suffer from discoloration on the body, including darker knees, elbows, ankles. Could you please suggest what the best treatment would be to even out the skin tone in those areas? Thank you!
I know this is a little different, but it would be interesting to see a roundup of your favorite stylevana and korean beauty favorites. This video made me think of all the ceramide sunscreens, ceramide ampoules, and sven the blue purito pump ceramide moisturizer! K beauty has become such a staple for me
Would love to see a video on microneedling procedure (in office, not at home) - benefits, who should do it, etc. possibly short video? I would also love a video on scalp care. Specifically for people with seborrheic dermatitis on their scalp. Possibly long video? Thanks so much ❤
Love your content so much! ❤ I would really appreciate an in-depth video on scalp skincare and what are BS ingredients / products for the scalp, like do you actually need to exfoliate your scalp? Also best treatments for scarring alopecia 🙏🏼 ❤
Loved your video, I am just an ardent follower of your content. Indian brands like Be Minimalist, Deconstruct, Derma Co, Dr Seth's, Concious Chemist, Chemist at Play, Sugandha, Plum, Dot & Key, and others, have some marvellous skincare products that seem to rival the international ones. Following you, made me realise how important the INCI list is for any skincare product. Lots of love.
Long video if possible on trifarotene 🙏 Shorts: • do silver pillowcases actually work? • best types serums for oily skin (with and without niacinamide bc a lot of products already have this ingredient usually) • microneedling for acne scars and rosacea, realistic expectations after one session, frequency, are the results really not permanent for acne scars? Or what does “permanent” mean in this case
Also, PHENOXYETHANOL seems to be in every face product these days, but EWG gives it a 4 and I also have heard it can trigger eczema!!! Can you do a short on this ingredient? THANK YOU!! You are THE SKIN QUEEN!
I'll second the recommendation for Toleriane Double Repair Face Moisturizer UV SPF 30. It's part of my sunscreen rotation for days that I won't be spending much time in the sun, and figured it would work double duty. Thank you Doctor.
Thank you so much for this information! Also, today I received my second purchase of your Fade system and your signed valentine card! It absolutely made my week! I continue to love and use all three products! So, so happy with the results thus far.
I love being a “shiny mess”, personally! And you look beautiful! The red suits you very well. Thank you for the video! As a 21 old with a small budget, I try to spend money very consciously, but skincare is really is my (not guilty) pleasure! So, I am trying to really narrow down the “basics” for myself, and these “ingredients” types of videos really help with it! Thanks.
Dr. Idriss, firstly, thank you. I would love to see a long video talking about Hair/Scalp products (what do we really need in our routine; scalp oiling; etc.).
I would love to hear about skincare for those with Ehlers Danlos Syndrome bc our bodies make poor quality collagen and tends to be very sensitive (bruise easily, poor wound healing, hyper mobile joint). But increasing collagen production doesn’t change that we still make poor quality collagen.
I agree with you on the sensitive skin. My skin is very soft (thanks EDS lol) but my cheeks in particular are incredibly sensitive to products and can burn and sting and flush, which is making adding anti-aging products a bit more complicated.
I have been using your new line and I absolutely love it. I’m out of the moisturizer and almost out of the serum. I have put an order in for January. I ended up getting 1 Major Fade Solution Set, 2 Moisturizers, and 2 serums, I don’t want to run out again. I’ve told a couple of my friends who have melasma, if I’m feeling generous, I may share some of mine, but we’ll see 😜
I love thick balms. I love slathering on laroche posay and layering cerave healing balm on top. Wake up with very glowing skin. I’ll check out this others you mentioned here.
Two additional options. Drunk Elephant Ceramide Cream - air tight container. Pacifica Ceramide Cream; much more budget friendly but it’s an open container 🫙
I wish your moisturiser for fungal acne safe and reasonably priced , suitable for highly sensitive dehydrated acne prone skin that can't tolerate harsh ingredients
I would love to see a long format video with review of The ordinary products: which ones deserve our attention and which better to skip? It’s still one of my favourite brands but I am not sure how it compares to other ones objectively.
Your videos have saved my skin, face and body. I'm waiting for my major fade active seal to show up. Shipping time was a little long but I'm sure it'll be worth the wait.
I am so confused by peptides. Which ones are for what, some of them can't be mixed with other things? I think the copper peptides can't be mixed with some things?
Love it! I'd also love to see a long form on dealing with facial psoriasis specifically (and plaque body psoriasis), and cross into ingredients that would be beneficial to use or avoid... skin care, even pertaining to makeup products?
Please make a long format video for Skin care routine/products that you can use while taking accutane and if we can take other supplements while taking it such as omega 3 fish oil, magnesium glycinate etc. Thank you so much!
Hi Dr Shereene! I would love to learn about sensitive skin and hormonal acne. Particularly why dry-to-sensitive skin still get hormonal acne, and how to treat it without getting bad reactions. In my case, with an hormonal imbalance due to a chronic illness, my dermatologist has tried to treat my hormonal acne for years with products that were over stripping my skin. After a while I forgot what my natural skin type was, thinking I had oily skin due to my skin's reaction to those products. After a couple months focusing on rebuilding my skin barrier with hydrating and nourishing products geared towards sensitive skin, my skin is doing so much better with a more even appearance, way less oil and sebum, and... and less acne! However I still get the occasional hormonal break out, and I would love to know how to prevent and treat those without over-stripping my skin. Help a sensitive soul out! thanks ❤
I was recently diagnosed with rosacea on my cheeks and chin. I’m so paranoid that something is going to irritate my skin that I’ve stopped putting anything on it! No more retinol or acids. I do get a monthly chemical peel at my derm but that’s it. I’m worried that I’m actually neglecting my skin from an anti-aging standpoint. Would love a video on your recommendations for taking care of rosacea and what products won’t make it angry 😊
I would love to see a video on the "hydra facial" procedure. I had a negative experience resulting in a comprised barrier. Would love to hear your take on such facial treatment. Love your content! Thank you :)
I do love the byoma gel moisurizer and recently discovered Bubble Day serum. Only $14 at walmart but contains 5 diff types of ceramides and vita c derivative and tranexamic acid. Too good to be true!
@@safs66 i do since that one serum replaced like 3 separate ones. I only used it for like a couple of weeks so far and it’s soothing, non irritating but it’s too soon to tell if it’s making a big difference but there seems to be slight brightening.
@@tinasung3814 Also I noticed that all of the ceramides were more towards the top of the ingredient list (vs in Cocokind they were towards the bottom) Thank you Tina!
Hi! Idk if this helps, but in her video about rosacea at 2:25 (Rosacea: How to Treat Flare-Ups with Treatments That Work!) she calls residual blood vessels Telangiectasia and she has a short on it called: (Can You Prevent Telangiectasia? #shorts)
I make lotions, including a 30% glycerin cream that I keep at work to help with the effects of frequent handwashing and dry hospital air. I use panthenol and ceramides in it. Thanks for the information - it'll help me choose the best ceramide complex next time I order. My current ceramide complex came in a dark green jar and I keep it in the fridge. I package the cream in cobalt glass. I love me some light-protective packaging!
Could we do a video on everything about psoriasis!!! I help people with skincare at work and a customer came to me about their psoriasis so I would love to know more to help someone with skin like theirs🥺🥺
Long topic - sebaceous hyperplasia. Very common but no one seems to talk about it. Best treatments to remove and avoid scarring/ hypopigmentation. How to prevent getting more/keep them under control - products to use/don’t use? Thank you.
Please, Please, Please, can you share about puffy eyes. I know there’re many different contributing factors, but maybe just skip to the chase and discuss different treatments/products/eye patches etc., I’d so appreciate it!! Much as gracias!

Hi doc, can you do a video addressing the issue of retinoid usage around the eyes might cause damage on meibomian glands as stated by some eye doctors online? I saw some opthalmologists or eye doctors online telling people to avoid retinoids around eyes because you can damage the meibomian glands, not damaging the skin but the eyes.
Yes, that would be interesting. Avene has an eye product that include retinaldehyde, so a clip on retinoid usage around the eyes would address concerns that some of us have. Merci!
@@nadoh6253 Yes, because most dermatologists avoid having to talk about the effects on the eyes (meibomian glands) , and only talk about the potential sensitivity skin wise. Some eye doctors online even go extra length by saying that even retinoid eye creams are also not safe to be put close to the eyes, not because of the skin sensitivity but because of some people develop meibomian glands dysfunction due to retinoid usage around eyes.
Thank for making this video after work eventough u must be exausted🙌 Could you do a video about antioxidants other than vit C pls? I also would LOVE videos about the hair, or like analizing hair product like shampoos, olaplex 3 o K18 Thank you very much greetings from Barcelona!
I'm just here to say that you've completely saved my skin. 100% all you. Did i try other channels first? Yes. Did i buy a bunch of products based on their recommendations? Heck yes. Did any of them work nearly as well on my skin as the ingredients and product that you have recommended? HECK NO. So THANK YOU for all of your videos and your passion!!
@pillowtalkderm- any time!!
I love when you do the shorts! I like both, sometimes I just don’t have the time. ❤️
Hi, my recomendations I would like to see:
- You use retinoids while not pregnant, but what if you find out you are pregnant? They stay in the system for some time, is it dangerous for the new tiny developing baby? What are bakuchiol (or other) replacements for low retinol (retinal) dosage, for middle and for high dosage? I would love examples. That could be a long video.
- For shorts I would like to see: darts spot treatments for acne (do they really work?), fast remedies for damaged skin barrier (and how long to use them before introducing the actives back), men and kids skincare examples (I always wonder why I need SPF in the normal winter day but not my hubby or kids or what is the age for kids to start using it regularly, same with other skincare for kids?), more funny videos about real male (and female) skincare failures,...
Thank you! ❤️
Add someone who had a broken skin barrier I suggest the CeraVe night renewing cream or the Walgreens version. I use CeraVe at night and the store brand in the morning. But if you're on a tight budget I suggest mixing the la-roche posay triple lipid ap Baum and the regular CeraVe moisturizer and just sealing it in with Vaseline. These all work the same if you get the exact products or do something very similar. Also if you wanna spend more the Skin fix triple lipid plus cream is so so similar to the skinceuticals one. Money is an important factor and that's why I take care of my skin at home and learn my ingredients. Also I'm thinking of going back to esthetician school this time a good school one they a doesn't get shut down
I'm indian. Bought the purito one when I had severe acne due to lack of vitamin D..I was using adapalene which caused my skin to peel nd become extremely sensitive to touch and red.. Even putting g water or sweat used to burn. Only thing that would soothe my skin is the purito sleeping mask.. That's when I fell in love with it. Since it's my first cream on ceramide, so I can't compare it.. But it's a good one.
Just leaving it here for anyone looking for personal experiences.
Hii Dr. Shereene! ✨💕😊🙏
Can you please share some topical ways of treating droopy lips and smile lines for a person in their 30's ? that would be very helpful !!
Your flawless skin is always so satisfying to watch lol
I am in desperate need of some hair care product recommendations! The what, why and how! Shampoos/conditioners/ leave in/masks etc! I would also love for this to be in a longer video with some ingredient pointers/knowledge. You have amazing videos for skincare but I would love to deep dive into good hair care as well!
Dr. Idriss, the packaging looks very high end, which is what I expect coming from you!!! Now I am curious, if you would be so kind to do a video on Ablative Laser skin resurfacing, including the reduction of sun damage, combined with PRP. I have witnessed it first hand probably a dozen times. But at age 69, it will be for me this time, and things might have evolved over the past four years since I was in an office while it occurred. Whatever you decide, I will be back with my hands folded on my desk patiently waiting for your next class to begin. Seriously though, you do an extraordinary job explaining in depth for all your little skin nerds, every aspect, every detail, and effects of the areas you chose to cover that NO ONE CAN TOUCH YOU. As someone who hates being second, that quality is admirable, and necessary today. You know you're good Dr. Idriss, but you still need to hear it from us, and I have no hesitation in spelling it out. Have a wonderful week!
RNW ceramide plus serum is AMAZING! All the ceramides, 8 peptides, niacinamide, oat extract, beta-glucan, squalane and more. Non greasy and not expensive. I live by the arctic circle and winters are really cold and dry and that serum is my holy grail. Cant live without it during winter
what is the non-abbreviated name of the serum?
I've been using curel daily body lotion for years, and my skin can never be thankful enough for it. It also contains ceramide that helps keep my skin hydrating for hours during winter.
I had an emergency total hysterectomy a couple of months ago. My skin is already becoming more dry and sensitive. Please discuss changes in the skin during menopause. As well as what we can use and or do to correct these changes. Thank you! Happy Holidays & Many blessings!💖💖💖
Shiny/dewy, I think you look radiant!Have you tried a more blue-red (like a blood red)? I think that would look amazing on you. YSL’s tattouage couture are my lifelong favorites, highly recommend.
As a sensitive soul, I’d love a short review on Vanicream’s new products: Vitamin C Serum and Facial Moisturizer Broad Spectrum SPF 30
excellent video, dr idriss❗️
a bit of chem class, some 'why'
and a concise product layout
oh, and, a nice dose of shereene 😊
Omg FAB is the best!! My son has eczema and could never use aveeno because it would burn his skin but the first aid beauty cream is absolutely magnificent!
Thank you for another wonderful video - i'm learning so much! I would love to hear more about everyday hair care, especially for wanting to grow it long and preventing or repairing broken or very dry ends. 💕
Please please *PLEASE* do a Long-form video on Psoriasis!!! 🙏🌟
I swear Psoriasis is the most overlooked skin condition, by All brands and any Derm that has an online presence.
I know it's likely because Psoriasis is an auto-immune issue as well as just manifesting on the skin, and is Incredibly difficult to treat, due to underlying issues and really needing to see a patient in a clinic/office-setting. But people with Psoriasis want good skin too!!
And they want to be able to use products that will have As Much of an impact on their skin as is Realistically possible. Many Psoriasis sufferers literally live their lives hiding away. And there's so much judgement and stigma and Shame associated with it. Please do a deep-dive on it!! What it is, the structure of the skin, the other immune issues, treatments that work, things that should 100% be Avoided, Products that will help calm inflammation... etc. That would be an amazing gift to people with Psoriasis, Dr Idriss 🙏🌟🎄
Hello!!! Skin nerd here!!! 🤓First of all, your skin always looks flawless, shiny or not! ✨ have you ever heard of skin care ingredients that shouldn’t go around the eyes, that can cause meibomian gland, dysfunction, or dry eyes? I have been diagnosed with blepharitis, ocular rosacea, and demodex mites in my eyes. I know it sounds gross but so real. Ugh! 🤪 My skin now feels irritated on my face with slight redness. Borderline rosacea. This all happened to my eyes and skin one month after doing a parasite gut cleanse… which I know sounds even weirder than all the eye issues. So now I am left with blurry vision, double vision, and Extreme dry eyes to where I can no longer wear make up or my contact lenses and it’s been a year of this going on. 😢 I’m sharing my story because I think it’s so important for people to know the ingredients and skin care and you are the expert and that there are people out there that have skin issues and dry eye conditions and they all seem to correlate… I am learning that these eye conditions and rosacea and skin issues go hand-in-hand. I am now receiving IPL on my eyes and face to try to help with all of these eye issues and skin issues. I’ve heard that RetinA, Retinal or any kind of retinol’s, parabens or Phenoexythanenol can cause mibomian gland dysfunction, and clog up, tear ducts and cause severe dry eyes. Sorry for the long message just thought maybe you could shed some light and help all out there with these issues. Lastly, I would like to order your vitamin C cream that has ceramides in it. With all that I have told you do you think that would be good for my skin? I feel like my barrier has been compromised because of all of this and I found out the current one I am using has some of these ingredients in it that are bad for dry eyes. I notice yours does not have those bad ingredients. Please let me know. Thank you so much! One of your new nerds!! 😜😊
I've never heard of the Minimalist brand, but the rest of the ingredients in this moisturizer are also great... especially at that price! So happy to have discovered them because of you!
Your videos are THE BEST!! Can you please do a long video about the dangers (and any positives) about essential oils in skincare, especially when it comes to the face?
Talk about profhilo ! If it’s beneficial for the face and worth giving the treatment a go!!
Most of Cosmetic Brands especially in India refer ceramide as 1,2,3,4,5,6 ...and so on .
1 Hydrophilic
- Ceramide AP (Ceramide 6 )
- Ceramide NP (Ceramide 3)
2 Hydrophobic
- Ceramide EOS (Ceramide 1)
- Ceramide EOP ( Ceramide 4)
- Ceramide NS (Ceramide 2)
I didn't hear a word you said for 6 minutes I had to start it over. Why? I was in a trance at how GORGEOUS your skin is. I mean WOW! 😍🙌❤️💎
Vanicream makes a good ceramide-rich cleanser, moisturizer, and moisturizing sunscreen.
Agree. Their moisturizer + mineral sunscreen is wonderful and has 5 different ceramides!
@@jr-pr9lw Your comment helped me realize that I’d misstated about the cleanser. It doesn’t contain ceramides but works well for me. The ceramide containing cleansers are from Pacifica Beauty and Ceramedx.
Show idea: How can people with Rosacea, Eczema, extremely dry skin, etc. safely use retinoids? Typical advice is that we shouldn't, but there HAS to be a way!
I have rosacea, reactive and dry skin and I love Geek and Gorgeous A-game 5. It's a fragrance free retinaldehyde with a short ingredient list. I started with using it every 3 days.
I would love to see a long format video about a skin care regime for Sensitive, Acne-Prone Skin. Thank youuuu 😊🤍
Hello! Favorite kid/baby products in a long or short format would be so helpful! And favorite bachuchiol serums in a short format!
I’d love for you to a video on chemical peels or a video dedicated to how to treat darker skin tones 🥰
Vanicreams facial moisturizer is an excellent choice. It comes with all 5 ceramides and squalane. Its a staple in our house.
Hi Dr. Shereene! Often people from ethic backgrounds can suffer from discoloration on the body, including darker knees, elbows, ankles. Could you please suggest what the best treatment would be to even out the skin tone in those areas? Thank you!
Dr vanita rattan does videos especially on this topic. I'd definitely recommend seeing her channel - love her research and the care she puts into skin
I know this is a little different, but it would be interesting to see a roundup of your favorite stylevana and korean beauty favorites. This video made me think of all the ceramide sunscreens, ceramide ampoules, and sven the blue purito pump ceramide moisturizer! K beauty has become such a staple for me
Would love to see a video on microneedling procedure (in office, not at home) - benefits, who should do it, etc. possibly short video?
I would also love a video on scalp care. Specifically for people with seborrheic dermatitis on their scalp. Possibly long video?
Thanks so much ❤
Skinfix has an amazing moisturizer with ceramides, it's thick and with a pump. Love it.
My favourite ceramide cream remains Illiyoon ATO ceramide cream 🥰
Huuuge packaging and so affordable. Best value for money. Great on the body too.
Love your content so much! ❤ I would really appreciate an in-depth video on scalp skincare and what are BS ingredients / products for the scalp, like do you actually need to exfoliate your scalp? Also best treatments for scarring alopecia 🙏🏼 ❤
Thank you for your channel!!! Someone mentioned hair in the comments. Would love to see a video about hair care and hair myths!
Loved your video, I am just an ardent follower of your content. Indian brands like Be Minimalist, Deconstruct, Derma Co, Dr Seth's, Concious Chemist, Chemist at Play, Sugandha, Plum, Dot & Key, and others, have some marvellous skincare products that seem to rival the international ones. Following you, made me realise how important the INCI list is for any skincare product. Lots of love.
Hey! How about Re'equil? how's the brand?
Re'equil should have been on my list. It is also a very good brand, especially, their sunscreens and moisturisers are very effective.
@@barsha9518 Their brand's packaging looks amazing to me. I'm thinking of getting some of their products
@@fahomedchowdhury5738 Go for it!
Any Indian dermatologist you recommend I can watch on TH-cam?
Can you talk about PRP&PRF for skin and hair??? Does it help hair loss due to genetics in women?? Thank you for educating us! You are amazing❤️
I usually use castor oil or rosehip oil or grapeseed oil or squalane oil. According to your explanation, seems they function as ceramide as well
Long video if possible on trifarotene 🙏
Shorts:
• do silver pillowcases actually work?
• best types serums for oily skin (with and without niacinamide bc a lot of products already have this ingredient usually)
• microneedling for acne scars and rosacea, realistic expectations after one session, frequency, are the results really not permanent for acne scars? Or what does “permanent” mean in this case
Also, PHENOXYETHANOL seems to be in every face product these days, but EWG gives it a 4 and I also have heard it can trigger eczema!!! Can you do a short on this ingredient? THANK YOU!! You are THE SKIN QUEEN!
Most dermatologist see EWG as bogus.
I'll second the recommendation for Toleriane Double Repair Face Moisturizer UV SPF 30. It's part of my sunscreen rotation for days that I won't be spending much time in the sun, and figured it would work double duty.
Thank you Doctor.
Thank you for all you do for us Doctor ❤
Thank you so much for this information! Also, today I received my second purchase of your Fade system and your signed valentine card! It absolutely made my week! I continue to love and use all three products! So, so happy with the results thus far.
I love being a “shiny mess”, personally! And you look beautiful! The red suits you very well. Thank you for the video!
As a 21 old with a small budget, I try to spend money very consciously, but skincare is really is my (not guilty) pleasure! So, I am trying to really narrow down the “basics” for myself, and these “ingredients” types of videos really help with it! Thanks.
Dr. Idriss, firstly, thank you. I would love to see a long video talking about Hair/Scalp products (what do we really need in our routine; scalp oiling; etc.).
Hi Sherrene, I would like to see a video on spider veins and available solutions. Thank you ☺️
I would love to hear about skincare for those with Ehlers Danlos Syndrome bc our bodies make poor quality collagen and tends to be very sensitive (bruise easily, poor wound healing, hyper mobile joint). But increasing collagen production doesn’t change that we still make poor quality collagen.
I agree with you on the sensitive skin. My skin is very soft (thanks EDS lol) but my cheeks in particular are incredibly sensitive to products and can burn and sting and flush, which is making adding anti-aging products a bit more complicated.
I have been using your new line and I absolutely love it. I’m out of the moisturizer and almost out of the serum. I have put an order in for January. I ended up getting 1 Major Fade Solution Set, 2 Moisturizers, and 2 serums, I don’t want to run out again. I’ve told a couple of my friends who have melasma, if I’m feeling generous, I may share some of mine, but we’ll see 😜
Has it helped with your Melasma spots? Looking into trying it out! xx
Need a video about sweat and hyperhidrosis! Maybe even skincare that is perfect for individuals who sweat excessively
I love thick balms. I love slathering on laroche posay and layering cerave healing balm on top. Wake up with very glowing skin. I’ll check out this others you mentioned here.
Two additional options. Drunk Elephant Ceramide Cream - air tight container. Pacifica Ceramide Cream; much more budget friendly but it’s an open container 🫙
First Aid Beauty also comes in a tube.It's just bigger than the jar.
I wish your moisturiser for fungal acne safe and reasonably priced , suitable for highly sensitive dehydrated acne prone skin that can't tolerate harsh ingredients
I watch all your videos with one of the reason, I love how your skin is maintained, just spotless. How?❤
Hey, Thank you so much. I would love to talk to you but unfortunately I can’t find you in telegram channel.
I would love to see a long format video with review of The ordinary products: which ones deserve our attention and which better to skip? It’s still one of my favourite brands but I am not sure how it compares to other ones objectively.
I use La Roche-Posay’s TOLERIANE HYDRATING GENTLE FACIAL CLEANSER. It contains prebiotic thermal spring water, niacinamide, and ceramide-3. I love it!
Long, short bring it on. Love them both
Your videos have saved my skin, face and body. I'm waiting for my major fade active seal to show up. Shipping time was a little long but I'm sure it'll be worth the wait.
Would love a deep dive into facials and chemical peels!
Thank you Dr. Shereene.
Requesting you consider: Exosomes as a topic.
💜💜💜
Best skincare channel- love Dr. Shereene Idress!
Hello doctor Idriss,
Please could you talk about copper peptides?
I am so confused by peptides. Which ones are for what, some of them can't be mixed with other things? I think the copper peptides can't be mixed with some things?
Love it! I'd also love to see a long form on dealing with facial psoriasis specifically (and plaque body psoriasis), and cross into ingredients that would be beneficial to use or avoid... skin care, even pertaining to makeup products?
Same. I have on my face I and would love the topic to be more talk about it.
Please make a long format video for Skin care routine/products that you can use while taking accutane and if we can take other supplements while taking it such as omega 3 fish oil, magnesium glycinate etc. Thank you so much!
Noooooo, don't decrease your Sat videos...if anything, go more often pleeeease
Hi Dr Shereene! I would love to learn about sensitive skin and hormonal acne. Particularly why dry-to-sensitive skin still get hormonal acne, and how to treat it without getting bad reactions. In my case, with an hormonal imbalance due to a chronic illness, my dermatologist has tried to treat my hormonal acne for years with products that were over stripping my skin. After a while I forgot what my natural skin type was, thinking I had oily skin due to my skin's reaction to those products. After a couple months focusing on rebuilding my skin barrier with hydrating and nourishing products geared towards sensitive skin, my skin is doing so much better with a more even appearance, way less oil and sebum, and... and less acne!
However I still get the occasional hormonal break out, and I would love to know how to prevent and treat those without over-stripping my skin. Help a sensitive soul out! thanks ❤
I was recently diagnosed with rosacea on my cheeks and chin. I’m so paranoid that something is going to irritate my skin that I’ve stopped putting anything on it! No more retinol or acids. I do get a monthly chemical peel at my derm but that’s it. I’m worried that I’m actually neglecting my skin from an anti-aging standpoint. Would love a video on your recommendations for taking care of rosacea and what products won’t make it angry 😊
Hello, ny Dermatologist in June put me on Rhofade for my Rosacea. It's a topical and has helped me. Ask your Derm about it.
I’m using your products and I love the simplicity of the routine!! Thank you.
I would love to see a video on the "hydra facial" procedure. I had a negative experience resulting in a comprised barrier. Would love to hear your take on such facial treatment. Love your content! Thank you :)
They always make me break out 😢
Please start including whether these products are vegan. I have tried to look it up on my own without answers. Thank you!
I do love the byoma gel moisurizer and recently discovered Bubble Day serum. Only $14 at walmart but contains 5 diff types of ceramides and vita c derivative and tranexamic acid. Too good to be true!
Do you like the Bubble one so far?
@@safs66 i do since that one serum replaced like 3 separate ones. I only used it for like a couple of weeks so far and it’s soothing, non irritating but it’s too soon to tell if it’s making a big difference but there seems to be slight brightening.
@@tinasung3814 Thank you. I'm thinking of buying this instead of the Cocokind one...
@@safs66 i was debating between the 2 also but given Bubble Day serum has tranexamic for hyperpigmentation, that won me over.
@@tinasung3814 Also I noticed that all of the ceramides were more towards the top of the ingredient list (vs in Cocokind they were towards the bottom) Thank you Tina!
Hi, Shereene ❤ would love to hear about red capilar treatment around nose. Thank you! Appreciate your content 🙏🏻
Hi! Idk if this helps, but in her video about rosacea at 2:25 (Rosacea: How to Treat Flare-Ups with Treatments That Work!) she calls residual blood vessels Telangiectasia and she has a short on it called: (Can You Prevent Telangiectasia? #shorts)
I make lotions, including a 30% glycerin cream that I keep at work to help with the effects of frequent handwashing and dry hospital air. I use panthenol and ceramides in it. Thanks for the information - it'll help me choose the best ceramide complex next time I order. My current ceramide complex came in a dark green jar and I keep it in the fridge. I package the cream in cobalt glass. I love me some light-protective packaging!
Could we do a video on everything about psoriasis!!! I help people with skincare at work and a customer came to me about their psoriasis so I would love to know more to help someone with skin like theirs🥺🥺
Long topic - sebaceous hyperplasia. Very common but no one seems to talk about it. Best treatments to remove and avoid scarring/ hypopigmentation. How to prevent getting more/keep them under control - products to use/don’t use? Thank you.
Dr Idriss, please start reviewing some Indian brands. I am your huge fan
Would love your take on more European and Asian products!
Please, Please, Please, can you share about puffy eyes. I know there’re many different contributing factors, but maybe just skip to the chase and discuss different treatments/products/eye patches etc., I’d so appreciate it!! Much as gracias!
Thank you for calling out the open jars. Especially Skinceuticals! Your skin always looks beautiful!
