I wanted to say this so companies will see it. If Dr V says …don’t buy it, I won’t. PERIOD I do understand that her support (or lack thereof) isn’t based on the quality of the product. It’s based on the quality of product for black/brown skin. So, if you didn’t design the product for me, don’t be mad when I don’t buy it. 🤷🏾♀️. Thanks Dr V for informing the buyer with information. 🥰
I have used Medik8, The Ordinary, Geek and Gorgeous and Naturium and Geek and Gorgeous at the higher percentage was my favourite. I do also like Korean ones, especially the one by Scinic and KSecret which are my top faves.
Congratulations on all your success. The new videos look great. I remember when you would film in your bedroom. That’s when I bought my first hyperpigmentation kit😊 And of course, I’m waiting for the concealer❤
@@sharonscott1776 Tretinoin is a prescription drug and is very potent. It’s usually used for fairer skin. Of course you would need to speak to your physician before using any other products.
Where does Adapalene (Differin) fall on the spectrum or Retinols/Retinaldehyde's? I use it to help with my acne, but I also would like the other benefits that retinol/retinal provide.
Retinal is more for anti-aging. That's what the studies on it were testing. While adapalene was tested and made for acne treatment however since tretenoin has anti-aging/pigment evening benefits it would make sense for adapalene to have those same benefits. However no direct study has been done on adapalene for the sole purpose of hyperpigmentation. If you have acne I would say stick to your Adapalene or try and get a tretenoin prescription if you can as Retinal has not been studied for its anti acne benefit and likely would be less succesful then Adapalene at treating acne (I'm a licensed Aesthetician btw)
You know Dr V, you kinda make me wanna study chemistry in another life and become or support you in skin care formulating. you make a difference with your content and give me a solution to deal with some of my skin insecurities. A small request, we would love a short video on Retional body creams or serums for the body specifically. Ive seen wishcare ( i think) come out with a retinol body cream but would love your opinion on whether its effective. also will be buying you reinol cream in collab with derma co soon, very excited.
Hi dr v. Please make a video on microneedling and prp (face neck hands) for skin of colour. Is it safe for under eye dark circles/ blue veins and fine lines? Thank you.
Happy Sunday 😊 Thanks for this review. I've been a consistent of Naturium Retinaldehyde serum for months now... Love it!!! Question: Would you recommend using your Dr. V Antioxidant Power Serum with the Facial Pigmentation Kit?
I love your products. I have your moisturizer, toner, exfoliator, sunscreen and im currently using your melasma facial kit. But im buying from musebeauty in south africa, and its all super expensive. The melasma purchase price is 2400 on your site, but retails for 3600 over here. Its just insane 😮 Im happy to pay for a good product. Ive used the sunscreen and moisturizer for atleast 8 months and while some call your products expensive. I think its an investment in myself for my skin. I do think prices should be reasonable though especially given the long term nature of it. If i havent said so already, thank you for developing product's for skin of colour.
I appreciate the knowledge and the sharing of the knowledge that Dr V provides. However, it appears that what is highlighted are the most expensive products & ensures it emphasized but being quite systematic about not mentioning The Dr V products in the expensive category & indeed they are.
Hello dr v. First of all your channel is my favorite skincare channel. And you have helped a alot in my skin care journey ❤❤ I always Wanted to ask you to review All aloe vera gel in Indian market, they have Vitamin E and some salicylic mixed with aloe gel. My no.1 question "IF ALOE GEL HAS VITAMIN E IN IT, CAN I USE THAT ALONE AS MY MOISTURISER DURING SUMMER IN HOT HUMID WEATHER? love, India❤❤❤
@vanitarattan thankyou dr but during Humid hot weather my natural skin is also moisturised well. Aloe gel feels like lightweight moisturiser, will it be okay??
I just would love one serum with certain ingredients. So far my morning routine is: Timeless C serum, Timeless Q10, Paula’s choice ultra light antioxidants, Timeless Synthe 6, Paula’s peptide booster, eye cream, CeraPep, tinted sunscreen. Night time, cleanser, Tretinoin, Naturium Arbutin, Naturium Tranexamic Acid, eye cream, Cerapep. It’s just so much, no one does one or two serums with the ingredients I want.
You can look for numbuzin no 5+, serum, it has niacinamide, tranexamic acid, vitamin c derivatives, alpha arbutin, glutathione and some other soothing ingredients . But keep in mind it also contains few comedogenic ingredients such as shea butter etc.
Doctor v I’ve been using your range for about a year now and it’s changed my skin I would to send you my results but I’m not sure what’s the best way too
Hi Dr V! I’m confused because I saw the % of retinal written on allies of skin package displayed on the video (0.05%) This looks like a very promising brand available in India too, please can you review them
Hello Dr. V. First of all thank you because of your videos I really can avoid product which are good for others but bad for my skin. It did not only save my skin but also money. I have a request can you please make a video on collagen present in market specially in India.
Dr V, I love your Skin Renew Peptide Retinol Serum Cream. However, I am getting huge pimples on my face after using it, even after applying it using the Sandwich method. Could you tell me why this would be happening and how to prevent it??
@@sharonscott1776 i just saw the ingredient. Wow amazing. I think it will be supersafe as eyecream too. No fragrance or other that might be irritating.
Hi DR V Please could you advise me when is your amazing hair growth range is launching and the viramin C MOusturiser! Thank you for making me Look and Feel My Best!
Dr.V, can you please help with a detailed routine for people using Tret? How to incorporate your products into the routine to enhance the effectiveness and efficiency? xxx
I'd love to see a By Wishtrend Vitamin Amazing + Bakuchiol! Also, do you think you could ever do a video "debunking", or minimising in some way extremely expensive products like la Prairie? Need to convince a friend that there are cheaper alternatives and that Caviar isn't a must for the face!
Dr. V what are your thoughts on UV light hair extensions also called V light extensions. Is the amount of uv in the device safe to use so close to the scalp?
Please review the haruharu brand(especially their oil cleanser and both their sunscreens) the I'm From brand(especially their rice toner) and the iunik brand(especially their sunscreen, which I'm currently using). Also, please recommend shampoos and conditioners that are NAFE safe that are under $20-$30 and accessible in the US. They don't have to be drugstore per se, just something I can buy off amazon(ive been loving kbeauty and jbeauty content). Can you also recommend water based face washes for the summer? I'm using the Aveeno oat one and I have tried the cerave hydrating one in the past, but both feel too heavy in the summer and leaves a heavy feeling on my face. They are great for winter tho. I have dry to normal skin with an oily nose. Finally, will you ever launch your brand in the US in the coming future? There are some products I've been really eyeing, especially your retinol serums, eye cream and collagen supplements, to name a few off the top of my head. Thank you!
I also wanna ask 1 question. You recommend airless pumps for vit C / retinoids. But there is Miss Mashal ( cosmetic chemist , I love & listen her too) who recommends droppers for vit C. Now I'm confused, to whom should I listen 👂 Please clear...
When to use salicylic acid 2% by pc, since u had mentioned we can use it everyday ? But I exfoliate once a week with mandelic/ lactic acid so how should I fit that in ? Thank youuu ❤
Me listening and finger crossing hoping Dr Bowe’s anti aging product features & that of Dr Shah! I have read both INCI lists and on paper they seem fab but then again I am not a cosmetic formulator or derm
Dr.v I live in the caribbean and have been dealing with stubbon black spots under my throat . I don't shave, but pluck my hair there . I do have oily skin. What can I do to lighting my spots . Am very insecure about it
HAI Dr...Am from India..Iam 56..am already using clinique..skin repair serum..and also used kiehls..I gave textured skin,hyperpigmentation...which one do you suggest for me..Pl help
I love your products Doc. V but no direct shipping to Spain . So I ordered and ship to Philippines then my sister send it to me. I hope i can order directly soon
Hi Doc. Can I use tretinoin alternating with retinaldehyde. I have been using it for a month along alpha arbutin and it's making my skin dark. Should I stop it?
Dr. V, I really appreciate your videos as a person with skin that has more melanin and I am in the US in a warm climate and I have brown spots that have gotten more visible over time and age. Your Dr V products that you suggest in this video, would it be okay to use those products to try to decrease these brown spots that are not raised? I do not have acne problems. Thanks for your advice!

Definitely need the good ones that will really work. Love this

Congratulations on all your success. The new videos look great. I remember when you would film in your bedroom. That’s when I bought my first hyperpigmentation kit😊 And of course, I’m waiting for the concealer❤
Did the pigment kit get rid of ur dark spots?
@ Yes…after two years, I just use it as a maintenance but the sunscreen is key.
@ I use Tretinoin so don’t think I can use her pigment kit as it has retinal in it. I wish she had that serum just without the retinal.
@@sharonscott1776 Tretinoin is a prescription drug and is very potent. It’s usually used for fairer skin. Of course you would need to speak to your physician before using any other products.

Hi Dr V,
I wanted to know your thought on biomicroneedling and biorepeel for skin of colour to tackle acne scars. Are these effective treatments?
Thank you for reviewing these products, I really appreciate your videos!❤

I prefer less oxygen touching vit c as its an anti oxidant. It becomes ineffective in oxygen.
Please review makeup products which of the setting & fixing spray is less harmfull. How to clean makeup brush/beauty blender etc.
