Been really enjoying the gold bond retinol on neck, body and hands. I have been using more Vaseline on face and body after watching your videos and that has been a life saver this winter. So glad I found you Dr Dray and skin and bank account thanks you! 🙏🏾
Love this! This has been my year to start taking care of my skin (I’m 60! 😂), and I could not have done it well without this channel. There are soooooo many choices on store shelves, and I could not have made good decisions without the information and recommendations from the Dray ™️. Thank you. 🧴💧🪞
I used Australian Gold for several years but the tint is a little too pink for my skin tone. Elta MD fair tint is a better color for my warm tone. I wish it were a little more matte. I hate glowy skin because I look and feel oily. And before anyone comnents that they like glowy products because of their dry skin, realize that is not an issue for everyone. You do you.
Same. I hope they expand their shade range and undertones. I haven’t found a similar sunscreen formula. It completely dries down matte but moves with my face and doesn’t settle in smile or eye lines. Unfortunately the pinky peach undertone makes me look ill.
I found the Beauty of Joseon sunscreen this year! I’m so glad this recommendation came through a YT video I watched this year! I have a lot of trouble with sunscreens in general and the only one that I could tolerate was the Tatcha expensive one!!! Just as FYI, I have MCAS so the struggle is real. 😮😢 I also found out about Vaseline STICKS!!! Now I have one by my bed for my feet that I use. I also have a separate one for my face. I labeled both so I won’t mix them up!! 😂😂 The tinted moisturizer category really came string this year!! I’ve always loved them so I’m very happy to see better ones!! I tried K Beauty this year and it’s been a complete win for me! I have tried so many skin care products after I seriously chemically burned my face a few years ago. My MCAS was flaring constantly everywhere in my body and I had to change so much. Trying so many different products was so expensive. I wasn’t willing to try anything other than Tatcha once I realized how well that worked for me. But I’m glad I gave BOJ a try. I’ve completely switched to that and it’s so much more affordable!!! I’m looking forward to your Best of series this year!!❤❤
You probably won’t see this. However, I am so very grateful for your knowledge and expertise in skincare. I know that you won’t push products for self gain. Thank You and Merry Christmas 🎄
I tried the Gold Bond Retinol after you mentioned it a while back. It's so great for smoothing body issues like crepe skin on knees and elbows. It can be a bit too much if your skin is smooth...one of my elbows has been peeling for a couple weeks after using it for a few days straight. Love your recommendations
Tbh, I wasn't sure there was enough retinol to matter, I am glad to know that yes, it's a "real retinol" product! Their pure moisture or crepe smoothing formulas might be perfect for you. I have 4 different Gold Bond creams lol, I am a but obsessed
I tried the Gold Bond Retinol for a few months and developed redness, flaking, bumps and soreness. I wasn't sure about using it on my eyelids and lips but went ahead. Soon, my lips were burning, peeling and my eyelids turned red with skin tags that appeared all of a sudden. Could this be because I forgot to avoid the eyelids and lips .....Hmmm.
I can't stand stickiness after applying body lotion so I was nervous when I dispensed some of the gold bond retinol cream because it's THICK. But shockingly once it's rubbed in it....disappears. No tackiness or filmy feeling. I love it!
Thank you for teaching me to get my head on right re: petrolatum. Using it & the gold bond lineup generously (i live in the northern us great plains - dryyyyyyy & windy & extremely cold) has transformed my skin in 18 months. Niacinamide & squalane too, but comparing impact per dollar spent, petrolatum and urea are the absolute holy grail gold star winners. Please dont let them give urea a better name lol, i swear it keeps prices down 😂
Urea as an ingredient is very economical since it’s easy to mass manufacture and it has been around for decades. I formulate skin care products and I know per kg they’re really cheap. Urea is mostly used for body care products as it’s strongly exfoliant and I wouldn’t use it on face. It’s good for cracked feet, knees and elbows, it exfoliates and moisturizes with the help of water to hydrate. For face there are other better options.
@@KittenBowl1 do you know where you can test a moisturizer to figure out the ingredients? I have a great moisturizer I bought but I suspect it has a steroid in it. No ingredients list
Hi Dr. Dray! Again, you overwhelm me with your knowledge and recommendations, which I appreciate we much. I compare your informative channel with an office visit.... I would leave the Dr's office with 1\1,000 bits of info ... Your presentations are absolutely the greatest. AND you're as cute as can be. You are no frills, you get to the point and I have to listen intently to make sure I don't miss anything, but I constantly replay your videos. I LOVE your enthusiasm and energy.❤ Kathryn from Arizona
Australian Gold SPF 50 for the win! It's a great base layer for a light dust-and-buff layer of mineral powder foundation. I almost forget about my rosacea! Thanks for the video - we're so lucky to have you!
I love love love everything about the Australian Gold ... except for the tint. 😕 I've tried the lightest one and it still makes my skin look orange. This was a couple of years ago though, and I believe they've since added more options, but I'm not sure if they made the lightest one any more lighter. Even though it went on thick, it stayed in place, kept my oil-slick face matte, and blurred all of my rosacea and hyperpigmentation redness to a flawless finish. If anyone from Australian Gold is reading this, pleeeease make it less orange for us pale peeps!
My favorite sunscreen is Olay (I know..) Complete UV365 Oil-Free SPF 30. It's NOT slimy, it's matte and you can powder as soon as it dries and does great under makeup! I can't even find it for sale, so it must be popular! Thank me later 😅❤
Thank you as always Dr Dray for all your well put together, factual information. Maelove has come out with a new serum that I would love your thoughts (possibly a new video idea)…it’s the Peptide Squad one. Everyone seems to be jumping on the copper peptide bandwagon, and would appreciate your thoughts on this one.
I was going to ask for same! I think Maelove does excellent products and even with sensitive skin, I have been able to use their Vitamin C for several yrs., now. I would really like to see reviews on the peptide; I have been using the PCA exlinea pro serum but looking for more economical alternative.
I've been searching for years for the perfect sunscreen that I actually enjoy applying. This year I discovered the SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella SPF and Oh boy I am in love. I will never go back to American sunscreens. Thanks Dr. Dray!
Well, Korean sunscreens are not regulated by FDA. In my home tests all Korean sunscreens wear off much earlier than American or European ones (I use a UV mirror). Sorry but I don't trust Korean sunscreens and nor should you😢
I rotate between: - Panoxyl 30 SPF mineral. Great for oily days. Totally matte look. - Paula’s Choice 30 SPF mineral Daily Moisturizing. Great for dry skin days. - Skin Aqua 50+++ chemical. Layered with mineral spf. - Canmake Mermaid 50 SPF chemical. Layered with mineral spf. - Australian Tinted 50 SPF mineral for hiking and swimming beach days
I have been using the DRMTLGY Universal for over a year now - love it! And the Gold Bond - what a score! I use it on my legs and arms and it is really effective. Thank you for turning me on to both of them!
The Australian Gold tinted is my forever sunscreen. I tried to break up with it and try different things, but something in it just works amazing for my skin.
I’ve been using DRMTLGY Physical Tinted Moisturizer, SPF 44, for a couple of years now. It is water resistant for up to 30m. I have tried a couple of other tinted moisturizers with SPF such as Australian Gold SPF 50 and Neutrogena’s Mineral UV Tint Face Liquid SPF30, Tinted Sunscreen. The Australian Gold tinted sunscreen was a little thick and the tint too dark. Neutrogena sunscreen is more liquid which I don’t mind, but the tint color didn’t look good on me, and it’s water resistance is not that great. It’s also in a squeeze bottle which is messy. I keep repurchasing DRMTLGY because it blends on my face nicely, has SPF 44, is in a nice dispenser, and is a good base for my other make-up. I prefer the DRMTLGY SPF 44 to the SPF 46 version. The SPF 46 made my face look too shiny. Looking forward to your best of 2023 video. 😊
My perfect sunscreen is Olay Complete Sensitive SPF30. It's inexpensive and has great ingredients. You don't need a separate moisturizer underneath either. It is untinted which is what I prefer.
BoJ is still my go to sunscreen. I've tried a ton of Korean brand sunscreens, but I find myself always going back to it. It's fast absorbing, moisturising and also gives you a smooth finish. Before BoJ, I enjoyed using Neutrogena.
Lately Im obsessed with the Gold Bond Crepe smoothing lotion as a face cream, and there's a perfect dupe from CVS. It has urea, dimethicone, and petrolatum but is not sticky or heavy feeling. It's been windy & very cold but my skin is staying protected and hydrated. I use a lot of other very fancy creams (i get boxycharm & my skin can absorb 3-5 lotion layers in the eve), but nothing outperforms Gold Bond.
@@21972012145525 I think I may have seen one, but I'm not sure. I think they might still be coming out with their dupes. They didn't have them all yet. If I see it, I'll post on this channel.
I won't be without my Sleep and Glow. I've been using it for 3 years and don't plan to ever stop. I'll be 56 soon and it's great because as we get older sleeping on a bad pillow not only causes wrinkles, but can also cause creasing in the skin that takes longer to go away after we wake. I love it, so worth the price!
You’re right about petroleum jelly. Both cerave and aquaphor have additional ingredients that ended up irritating my lips. It’s the either the lanolin or HA.
My skin began to peel and sting after three days of using the Drmtlgy Universal Moisturizer. I was surprised because I’ve never had dermatitis like that before. I’m sticking with CeraVe tinted sunscreen-it looks and feels great.
Enjoyed hearing your favorites. I absolutely love Gold Bond retinol. I haven't bought any other lotion since I first tried it. I still like Jack Black sunscreen and have tried Sun Bum and I like that too. Happy Thursday, Dr Dray! I hope you have a tranquil evening. 💖
Nivea Sun 50+ babies & kids sunscreen - wow - no cast - lightweight - kids love it - I love it - waterproof -it’s now a household staple next to the toilet paper! Not sure if they changed formula because it doesn’t have that “heavy” Nivea smell but it’s soooo nice
I didn’t like it at first (it’s very moisturizing & I’ve got oily skin) but decided to give it another try and it’s wearable as long as I blot my face afterwards though it does irritate my eye area. 👍🎉
I bought the Tree Hut shaving oil, CeraVe face wash oil, and the Gold Bond retinol body cream. I love all of them, and do not ever want to be without the shave oil! OMG is amazing. Thank you, Dr. Dray!
My fav sunscreens have been from md solar sciences, avene, la roche posay, and purito. I just cant afford them regularly :/ I also really love the smashbox halo tinted moisturizer with SPF which was a one time buy for me during ulta's sale
I LOVE my Sleep and Glow (Aula) pillow! I bought it last year after watching one of your videos. I had always been a stomach sleeper, but the Aula pillow trained me to sleep on my back in no time! I can't thank you enough for the suggestion! I also love the DRMTLGY's tinted sunscreen and the Gold Bond retinol body cream. My second favorite sunscreen is Eucerin's Age Defense 50spf. Thank you for all you do and by helping us keep our skin healthy and glowing! Oh, and I'd love to hear an update on your PAO facial fitness contraption!
The DRMTLY universal tint is also my favorite sunscreen. I’ve tried others but nothing compares. The texture and color is just perfect. The first time I used it I noticed the subtle odor but now I’ve been using for 2 years or so and I haven’t noticed the smell in ages. I have them auto-send 2 bottles to me every couple months so I never run out.
For sunscreen I love the Neutrogena mineral uv tint in medium. The coverage is so good that you can go without foundation. Also I have repurchased at least 5 times the Maelove fade away brightening serum. This stuff cleared up the brown spots and it repaired the redness and inflammation caused by one of the $$$ serums I used for a few months.
Hi Dr Dray, can you do a drugstore routine when using a retinoid/epiduo? Also garnier has a new deep cleanser with salicylic acid and hyaluronic acid if you can check that out as well💕
I absolutely love Tree Hut shave gel. So glad you turned me onto it. I’ve also used their shower gel and it’s fantastic- cleans well, but really moisturizing. And a big thank you for stressing the importance of sunscreen. I’ve started using it indoors since my desk it next to a window with lots of bright, strong, year-round Florida sunshine.
Hey Dr. Dray, would you please make a video on Neutrogena Retinols? Like all of them? Their strengths, and which ones are good, which are bad? It will really help me as I wanna move up in strength.
Colorescience Flex is my favorite sunscreen. Maelove's Fade Away did not work for me, I did not like the substance and feel and most important I did not see any results. Thank you Dr. Dray for your work educating us!
On their website it's $209 regular price (comes with pillowcase). 15% off on Black Friday will make it $177.65. It seems high but still more affordable than other beauty devices! I got a similar brand for less on Amazon.
I love mine! Have had it for two years. It seems expensive as we aren’t use to spending that on a pillow, but when you think through the value of a good nights sleep, and the many benefits this will bring for your anti-aging skin routine long term, it is a steal! Besides sunscreen I think it is the most effective item in my skincare routine. You use your pillow every single night of your life. This is a cheap investment compared to what we spend on much more disposable items, such as Starbucks coffee, clothing, or an expensive meal out.
Undefined Beauty R&R Sun Serum. Switched to it from the DRMTLGY and love the fact that it’s waterproof and the bottle shape and size make it so easy to throw into a pocket for reapplication.
You've mentioned in a prior vlog that Maelove Fade Away serum can be used prior to tretinion at night but would you also recommend it while on accutane? Can you also put together an updated accutane regimen recommending the products (cleansers, lotions, sunscreens, eye drops etc) and routines (what food to take with med, how often to wash face, etc ) Please discuss what an ideal overall cumulative dose is and the benefits (or not) of sticking to a lower daily dose for a longer period of time. Thank you😊
DRMTLY has an excellent Physical Tinted Moisturizer SPF 44 that is 10% zinc oxide and water resistant for 80 minutes. The tint is a tad bit too dark for my skin tone by itself, so I like to mix it with the DRMTLY Daydream cream. It is another zinc oxide sunscreen/moisturizer, but is un-tinted. By combining the two, I can get a perfect match for my skin tone. The daydream is SPF 40 and also water and sweat resistant up to 80 minutes plus, since they are both mineral filters only, I have no issues wearing it around my eyes.
I love my sleep & glow pillow, i got it sent over to Scotland from the us after you recommended it a few years back along with lots of skin care products that have been fab! Thank you for everything you do you are truly appreciated ❤️❤️❤️
I bought two of them one for my husband and I but we both hate them. Personally I find that they have a weird order (I’m super sensitive to smell) and I’ve washed them a few times already. Also, the high of the pillows are a bit too much for us. We use it 1x per quarter for 10 or 15 minutes and then we go back to putting it away. I hardly ever use pillows but my husbands uses 2 pillows/night. Our guests have also said that they don’t enjoy the pillows so idk 🤷🏽♀️. I wouldn’t recommend them given the price but that’s just my opinion
Could you do a dedicated cruelty free skincare video, please? And my go to repurchased countless times is the Drunk Elephant Umbra Sheer SPF 30. I can’t live without it!
My fav this year is the Cocoon Winter Melon SPF 50 PA ++++. They use the latest sun filter (ppd 37), soo hydrating for my dry skin and vegan, cruelty free too. Best part is it does not have fragrant (my nose cannot stand perfurm lol).
Every time Dr Dray talks about the Omnia pillow, I'll be here to back it up. Pricey but worth it for such a long-lasting item. As a lifelong side-sleeper, I didn't think I'd ever be able to fall asleep on my back, but this pillow makes it possible for me.
Agree Dr Dray! My friends all buy DRMTGLY Tinted after I watched you apply it and instantly began to glow. I've tried and liked other tinted SPF, BB, CC ect and this weekend we are doing our Summer Must Haves...Hado Labo blue pot is my go to sunscreen.
I've tried the Drmtlgy universal; it's okay. My hands down favorite (I prefer a mineral sunscreen) are the ISDIN sunscreens. Yes, they're expensive (I always buy on sale) but the formulation is incredibly light. At 60, I really don't like sunscreens that feel like foundation. Other sunscreens feel heavy, sticky and seems to make wrinkles look worse. ISDIN: perfection!!! After putting on the ISDIN, it feels like I'm wearing nothing.
@barbarar5869 that must be frustrating. I've never had it pill. I use niod copper peptide serum, then argireline, then matrixyl serum, then bifida serum. Wait about 30 minutes to 1 hour and put on Isdin. On alternate days do vitamin c routine and layer multiple serums on top. Wait 30 minutes to 1 hour and Isdin sunscreen. It's never pilled. Hope find one you love.
I love Isdin Sunscreens as well 😍 this brand is not as popular as it is in LATAM, I also get them when the have discounts plus the bottle is double that regular 100 ml 👏🏼
@@tracyverba2691 I don't wait that long to apply it and maybe that's the issue. I will try your methid. I love my Korean sunscreens but I wanted to try something tinted.
I found this channel in march, I had been over manually exfoliating my face for years, not moisturizing, and using shampoo or bar soap on my face. I had moderate acne, super dry flakey and oiliy skin from my skins barrier being super damaged for years. I also had/have, large sun damaged areas that look red and blotchy, like permanently burnt from not using sunscreen on skin with no barrier. Every product I used hurt, the gentle ones dr dray suggested. So I just didn’t wash my face for about a week(I did rinse with cool water and blot of water with a t shirt every other day) it healed my barrier just enough that I could tolerate some of the gentle products, but a lot of others still hurt, and I had a few ups and downs. I ended up using an oil cleanser, and avenos calm and restore wash and moisturizer. It took a few months but my skin barrier healed and my acne subsided dramatically. And the last couple months I have used Differin once or twice a week, and today my husband said “I really think your skincare routine is starting to work well” I could cry, my face dosnt itch or hurt, and I don’t have painful pimples most of the time, and ny sundamage has even started to fade.
Thank you for sharing! I have a similar story ~ in my youth there was no internet and therefore no Dr. Dray, so I simply didn’t know any better. It wasn’t until my midlife years I found Dr. Dray’s channel & now my skin is doing much better, the rosacea is under better control ( although the sun damage hasn’t budged, but I can live with it!). 👍
I didn't expect myself to buy something pricey again soon after watching this video but that pillow is just one thing I couldn't miss! And I'm glad you're the one recommending it which means I can trust that brand. I've been using an orthopedic pillow for years now and while it has completely removed any neck or shoulder pain when I sleep, I still struggle with positioning when sleeping on the side. Since I don't want to get creases and wrinkles on my face and have any skincare products rub on the pillowcase, I always sleep on the very edge of the pillow. The only time I make full use of the center part of the pillow is when I lay on my back. Finally I can get a pillow that has the shape I badly need for side sleeping. ❤❤
Thanks Dr Dray for the pillows recommended and the discount codes. I bought two of them and it’s delivered very quickly and we had a best sleep with its last night. My husband love it too.
I know this is out of subject, however, i have to say Dr Dray has one of the prettiest eyes i habe ever seen EVER, she is literally so pretty and feminine, i look up to you a lot ❤❤.
HARUHARU WONDER (yellow tube) is my all time favorite sunscreen !!! It’s just like putting on my Aveeno lotion it just vanishes and leaves pure moisture … it smooths plumps fills like a primer and has the perfect satin finish… just looks like your best skin day ever!!!! Super moisturized well rested perfectly plump gorgeous skin…. in the summer when I need sweat protection I use the P.Calm Water Barrier sunscreen I wish they both came in gallon jugs 🤣🤣🤣🤍🖤🤎🤍🖤🤎🤍🖤🤎 they are incredible … I really love them if u could not tell LOL
Thank you as always Dr Dray for all your efforts to give us the best possible outcome and take care of our health and skincare with affordable prices. Love and respect Dr

BoJ is still my go to sunscreen. I've tried a ton of Korean brand sunscreens, but I find myself always going back to it. It's fast absorbing, moisturising and also gives you a smooth finish. Before BoJ, I enjoyed using Neutrogena.

Lately Im obsessed with the Gold Bond Crepe smoothing lotion as a face cream, and there's a perfect dupe from CVS. It has urea, dimethicone, and petrolatum but is not sticky or heavy feeling. It's been windy & very cold but my skin is staying protected and hydrated. I use a lot of other very fancy creams (i get boxycharm & my skin can absorb 3-5 lotion layers in the eve), but nothing outperforms Gold Bond.
Walmart has a dupe.
Good to know! My face will get so chapped and red in a cold wind. Will look for the cvs brand.💕
@americafirst9144 what's the Walmart dupe?
@@americafirst9144 does Walmart have a dupe of the retinol version?
@@21972012145525 I think I may have seen one, but I'm not sure. I think they might still be coming out with their dupes. They didn't have them all yet. If I see it, I'll post on this channel.
I won't be without my Sleep and Glow. I've been using it for 3 years and don't plan to ever stop. I'll be 56 soon and it's great because as we get older sleeping on a bad pillow not only causes wrinkles, but can also cause creasing in the skin that takes longer to go away after we wake. I love it, so worth the price!
It has made a huge difference for me too
Drmtlgy is my go to & I live in Florida, sun every day! I like the whole skincare line.
I need a pillow!
My favourite face sunscreen this year has actually been the Bondi Sands Hydra UV protect body lotion - love it! Great for combo/dry sensitive skin 🩵
You’re right about petroleum jelly. Both cerave and aquaphor have additional ingredients that ended up irritating my lips. It’s the either the lanolin or HA.
Dr. Dray!!! can you do a video about topical probiotics? my esthetician brought it up today and i’d love to hear your input
Lrp uses probiotics I believe
My skin began to peel and sting after three days of using the Drmtlgy Universal Moisturizer. I was surprised because I’ve never had dermatitis like that before. I’m sticking with CeraVe tinted sunscreen-it looks and feels great.
Me too! I’m so confused
Enjoyed hearing your favorites. I absolutely love Gold Bond retinol. I haven't bought any other lotion since I first tried it. I still like Jack Black sunscreen and have tried Sun Bum and I like that too. Happy Thursday, Dr Dray! I hope you have a tranquil evening. 💖
I’ve tried so many amazing new sunscreens, but my go to for years has been Colorscience in the Classic tint. I will always have a bottle of it.
Nivea Sun 50+ babies & kids sunscreen - wow - no cast - lightweight - kids love it - I love it - waterproof -it’s now a household staple next to the toilet paper! Not sure if they changed formula because it doesn’t have that “heavy” Nivea smell but it’s soooo nice
Fragrance?
Drmtlgy universal tinted is one I use consistently, thanks to you!
? Your growth is inspiring! It's amazing to see how far you've come. Excited to see where your journey takes you next! ??
Love the sleep in glow pillow - couldn’t sleep without it and even took it with me on a cruise
it makes a difference!
Dr Dray, I credit you for the sunscreen I use everyday, the Kroger Shimmer hydrating sunscreen SPF 40. I love it! Thank you for introducing it to me!!
I love the Kroger Shimmer as well. 😊
I didn’t like it at first (it’s very moisturizing & I’ve got oily skin) but decided to give it another try and it’s wearable as long as I blot my face afterwards though it does irritate my eye area. 👍🎉
Your hair and makeup look amazing!
Beauty of Joseon... excellent!
I bought the Tree Hut shaving oil, CeraVe face wash oil, and the Gold Bond retinol body cream. I love all of them, and do not ever want to be without the shave oil! OMG is amazing. Thank you, Dr. Dray!
My fav sunscreens have been from md solar sciences, avene, la roche posay, and purito. I just cant afford them regularly :/ I also really love the smashbox halo tinted moisturizer with SPF which was a one time buy for me during ulta's sale
I LOVE my Sleep and Glow (Aula) pillow! I bought it last year after watching one of your videos. I had always been a stomach sleeper, but the Aula pillow trained me to sleep on my back in no time! I can't thank you enough for the suggestion! I also love the DRMTLGY's tinted sunscreen and the Gold Bond retinol body cream. My second favorite sunscreen is Eucerin's Age Defense 50spf.
Thank you for all you do and by helping us keep our skin healthy and glowing! Oh, and I'd love to hear an update on your PAO facial fitness contraption!
Glad to hear 👍🏼
Dr Dray, how is the PAO FACIAL FITNESS going? It's been two months.
Sleep n glow, is it good for migraine too? I have neck n back problems also.
If you had to choose between Maelove Fade Away Brightening Serum and Timeless Co Q 10, which would you choose and why?
one is for discoloration/skin tone and the other is an antioxidant serum, so they are for different purposes
Dr. Dray can you make a video on tone-up sunscreens? They're very common in Asian skincare. Btw, love love love the Gold Bond retinol lotion!
The DRMTLY universal tint is also my favorite sunscreen. I’ve tried others but nothing compares. The texture and color is just perfect. The first time I used it I noticed the subtle odor but now I’ve been using for 2 years or so and I haven’t noticed the smell in ages. I have them auto-send 2 bottles to me every couple months so I never run out.
For sunscreen I love the Neutrogena mineral uv tint in medium. The coverage is so good that you can go without foundation. Also I have repurchased at least 5 times the Maelove fade away brightening serum. This stuff cleared up the brown spots and it repaired the redness and inflammation caused by one of the $$$ serums I used for a few months.
Neutrogena so $ for the size 😢
Hi Dr Dray, can you do a drugstore routine when using a retinoid/epiduo? Also garnier has a new deep cleanser with salicylic acid and hyaluronic acid if you can check that out as well💕
I absolutely love Tree Hut shave gel. So glad you turned me onto it. I’ve also used their shower gel and it’s fantastic- cleans well, but really moisturizing. And a big thank you for stressing the importance of sunscreen. I’ve started using it indoors since my desk it next to a window with lots of bright, strong, year-round Florida sunshine.
I want to try the body wash. I need something that feels clean, prevents sweat, and moisturises
Hey Dr. Dray, would you please make a video on Neutrogena Retinols? Like all of them? Their strengths, and which ones are good, which are bad? It will really help me as I wanna move up in strength.
She says it's not necessary to go up in strength, depending on the reason you're using it in the first place
Lady you look GREAT. A ringing endorsement of your knowledge.
Colorescience Flex is my favorite sunscreen. Maelove's Fade Away did not work for me, I did not like the substance and feel and most important I did not see any results. Thank you Dr. Dray for your work educating us!
The sunscreen I use over and over is Neutrogena tint med/deep, LOVE! Your skin in this video looks so radiant and so healthy! Thank you
Love the suggestions. OK. What is that sparkly little fun light with the red base and top in the background?
Been using the TH shave oils forever and it's the only formula that leaves my skin happy come shave time
I bought Dermatology sunscreen per your recommendation and it's now the only one i use. Love it!!!!
I love Vaseline for my feet hands eyelids and eye area and neck . Love love love it. Ppl put it down but I love it
Yes ! The DrmTlgy tinted sunscreen is my favorite for the fall/winter ! I always repurchase too😊
I saw the pillow on Amazon for $236! Is it really that expensive? That's insane.
On their website it's $209 regular price (comes with pillowcase). 15% off on Black Friday will make it $177.65. It seems high but still more affordable than other beauty devices! I got a similar brand for less on Amazon.
@@keshakellogg5995can you please share what that brand is I'm on a budget and need to know 😅
@@keshakellogg5995 what brand?
200.00 for a pillow? My husband would freak out 😮
I love mine! Have had it for two years. It seems expensive as we aren’t use to spending that on a pillow, but when you think through the value of a good nights sleep, and the many benefits this will bring for your anti-aging skin routine long term, it is a steal! Besides sunscreen I think it is the most effective item in my skincare routine. You use your pillow every single night of your life. This is a cheap investment compared to what we spend on much more disposable items, such as Starbucks coffee, clothing, or an expensive meal out.
Your skin and hair look amazing today!!
Love Gold Bond products!
The eczema one was only ok for me. I'm excited and waiting to try retinol one and the sensitive one.
Dr Dray you got me onto DRMTLGY tinted sunscreen! It is ELITE. I’m on my 8th bottle 😁
? Your channel is a treasure! It's a world of inspiration! ?? I learned SO MUCH from theStypore video
Undefined Beauty R&R Sun Serum. Switched to it from the DRMTLGY and love the fact that it’s waterproof and the bottle shape and size make it so easy to throw into a pocket for reapplication.
You've mentioned in a prior vlog that Maelove Fade Away serum can be used prior to tretinion at night but would you also recommend it while on accutane? Can you also put together an updated accutane regimen recommending the products (cleansers, lotions, sunscreens, eye drops etc) and routines (what food to take with med, how often to wash face, etc ) Please discuss what an ideal overall cumulative dose is and the benefits (or not) of sticking to a lower daily dose for a longer period of time. Thank you😊
DRMTLY has an excellent Physical Tinted Moisturizer SPF 44 that is 10% zinc oxide and water resistant for 80 minutes. The tint is a tad bit too dark for my skin tone by itself, so I like to mix it with the DRMTLY Daydream cream. It is another zinc oxide sunscreen/moisturizer, but is un-tinted. By combining the two, I can get a perfect match for my skin tone. The daydream is SPF 40 and also water and sweat resistant up to 80 minutes plus, since they are both mineral filters only, I have no issues wearing it around my eyes.
She says to layer sunscreens, not mix
I love my sleep & glow pillow, i got it sent over to Scotland from the us after you recommended it a few years back along with lots of skin care products that have been fab! Thank you for everything you do you are truly appreciated ❤️❤️❤️
I bought two of them one for my husband and I but we both hate them. Personally I find that they have a weird order (I’m super sensitive to smell) and I’ve washed them a few times already. Also, the high of the pillows are a bit too much for us. We use it 1x per quarter for 10 or 15 minutes and then we go back to putting it away. I hardly ever use pillows but my husbands uses 2 pillows/night. Our guests have also said that they don’t enjoy the pillows so idk 🤷🏽♀️. I wouldn’t recommend them given the price but that’s just my opinion
@@beabchillcan I have yours?
Could you do a dedicated cruelty free skincare video, please?
And my go to repurchased countless times is the Drunk Elephant Umbra Sheer SPF 30. I can’t live without it!
I think she has a while back
My fav this year is the Cocoon Winter Melon SPF 50 PA ++++. They use the latest sun filter (ppd 37), soo hydrating for my dry skin and vegan, cruelty free too. Best part is it does not have fragrant (my nose cannot stand perfurm lol).
What a gorgeous woman😮. Perfect job providing viewers and patients skin care tips!
Every time Dr Dray talks about the Omnia pillow, I'll be here to back it up. Pricey but worth it for such a long-lasting item. As a lifelong side-sleeper, I didn't think I'd ever be able to fall asleep on my back, but this pillow makes it possible for me.
Elastoplast AKA Hansaplast AKA Curitas ointment is available in Canada, Mexico, UK, and some parts of the EU as well as Australia!
My go to sunscreens are CeraVe facial moisturizing lotion with spf 30 or Neutrogena Invisible Daily Defense face serum 60+.
That's the best pillow I've ever had. Love it!
Agree Dr Dray! My friends all buy DRMTGLY Tinted after I watched you apply it and instantly began to glow. I've tried and liked other tinted SPF, BB, CC ect and this weekend we are doing our Summer Must Haves...Hado Labo blue pot is my go to sunscreen.
Patiently waiting for the Maelove Fade Away Brightening Serum to be available outside of the US and Canada...
Paula’s Choice Daily Defense mineral tinted sunscreen. I prefer castor oil to petroleum jelly.
I've tried the Drmtlgy universal; it's okay. My hands down favorite (I prefer a mineral sunscreen) are the ISDIN sunscreens. Yes, they're expensive (I always buy on sale) but the formulation is incredibly light. At 60, I really don't like sunscreens that feel like foundation. Other sunscreens feel heavy, sticky and seems to make wrinkles look worse. ISDIN: perfection!!! After putting on the ISDIN, it feels like I'm wearing nothing.
I am using an Isdin tinted sunscreen and it pills a lot. I have never had an issue with another sunscreen
@barbarar5869 that must be frustrating. I've never had it pill. I use niod copper peptide serum, then argireline, then matrixyl serum, then bifida serum. Wait about 30 minutes to 1 hour and put on Isdin. On alternate days do vitamin c routine and layer multiple serums on top. Wait 30 minutes to 1 hour and Isdin sunscreen. It's never pilled. Hope find one you love.
I love Isdin Sunscreens as well 😍 this brand is not as popular as it is in LATAM, I also get them when the have discounts plus the bottle is double that regular 100 ml 👏🏼
@@tracyverba2691 I don't wait that long to apply it and maybe that's the issue. I will try your methid. I love my Korean sunscreens but I wanted to try something tinted.
@@skinloverbyvanewhat is latam?
I'm gonna try the maelove serum. I wonder if hyperpigmentaion comes back if you stop using the product? 🤔
? Your video took me on a journey! Thank you for the escape and the joy you've brought into my day. ?✈️
? This video made me smile from start to finish! Your enthusiasm is infectious. Keep being awesome! ?? I learned a ton from Stypore on here.
I found this channel in march, I had been over manually exfoliating my face for years, not moisturizing, and using shampoo or bar soap on my face. I had moderate acne, super dry flakey and oiliy skin from my skins barrier being super damaged for years. I also had/have, large sun damaged areas that look red and blotchy, like permanently burnt from not using sunscreen on skin with no barrier. Every product I used hurt, the gentle ones dr dray suggested.
So I just didn’t wash my face for about a week(I did rinse with cool water and blot of water with a t shirt every other day) it healed my barrier just enough that I could tolerate some of the gentle products, but a lot of others still hurt, and I had a few ups and downs.
I ended up using an oil cleanser, and avenos calm and restore wash and moisturizer. It took a few months but my skin barrier healed and my acne subsided dramatically. And the last couple months I have used Differin once or twice a week, and today my husband said “I really think your skincare routine is starting to work well”
I could cry, my face dosnt itch or hurt, and I don’t have painful pimples most of the time, and ny sundamage has even started to fade.
can i ask why you were so harsh on your face before?
Glad to hear you're giving your skin the love it deserves 💝
Thank you for sharing! I have a similar story ~ in my youth there was no internet and therefore no Dr. Dray, so I simply didn’t know any better. It wasn’t until my midlife years I found Dr. Dray’s channel & now my skin is doing much better, the rosacea is under better control ( although the sun damage hasn’t budged, but I can live with it!). 👍
What are your favorite moisturizers?
? Kudos on your amazing work! I was NOT disappointed! ??
Dr. Dray - When do we apply a vitamin c serum? Before or after Maelove?
Drmtlgy holy grail physical tinted sunscreen. The ”old makeup” smell of the universal sunscreen was too much for me. 😃
I use the drmtlgy physical tinted spf. It doesn't irritate my skin like th universal does.
I didn't expect myself to buy something pricey again soon after watching this video but that pillow is just one thing I couldn't miss! And I'm glad you're the one recommending it which means I can trust that brand. I've been using an orthopedic pillow for years now and while it has completely removed any neck or shoulder pain when I sleep, I still struggle with positioning when sleeping on the side. Since I don't want to get creases and wrinkles on my face and have any skincare products rub on the pillowcase, I always sleep on the very edge of the pillow. The only time I make full use of the center part of the pillow is when I lay on my back. Finally I can get a pillow that has the shape I badly need for side sleeping. ❤❤
How are you liking it?
? Your skills are top-notch! It's a goldmine of wisdom! ??
Love the dermatology sunscreen - it is the one I always repurchase due to you!
Thanks Dr Dray for the pillows recommended and the discount codes. I bought two of them and it’s delivered very quickly and we had a best sleep with its last night. My husband love it too.
I know this is out of subject, however, i have to say Dr Dray has one of the prettiest eyes i habe ever seen EVER, she is literally so pretty and feminine, i look up to you a lot ❤❤.
HARUHARU WONDER (yellow tube) is my all time favorite sunscreen !!! It’s just like putting on my Aveeno lotion it just vanishes and leaves pure moisture … it smooths plumps fills like a primer and has the perfect satin finish… just looks like your best skin day ever!!!! Super moisturized well rested perfectly plump gorgeous skin…. in the summer when I need sweat protection I use the P.Calm Water Barrier sunscreen I wish they both came in gallon jugs 🤣🤣🤣🤍🖤🤎🤍🖤🤎🤍🖤🤎 they are incredible … I really love them if u could not tell LOL
My mom has always been a huge believer in the power of Vaseline. Glad to see it’s Dr Dray approved.
Please do a dupe for skinfix serum and cream!!! It’s awesome but way too expensive!
You introduced me to the drmtlgy SPF 46 tinted sunscreen years ago, and I’ve never stopped using it every day! Leaves the skin so beautiful thank you!
Ditto!!! I always end up going back to it. It's my OG ❤
Thank you as always Dr Dray for all your efforts to give us the best possible outcome and take care of our health and skincare with affordable prices. Love and respect Dr
Love SkinCeuticals physical fusion tinted but also like that DRMTGY one you recommended
I LOVE the Tula Mineral tinted. Thin, weightless, lovely! On my 3rd bottle.
