Swimming is one of the few types of exercise I enjoy. I only do it in the summer when it's hot, and my acne always improves during that time. My skin has improved a lot since I started watching your videos last year and I'm excited to see how this summer goes!
Love the new transitions! I can definitely attest to sweat underneath clothing causing acne flares. So hard to avoid. And I’m embracing being outdoors more often too, which is fine because you made me a sun protection expert 😎
@@orosco97 I love laroche posay anthelios 60 cooling water lotion. It feels like none other and absorbs so fast. Great for reapplications. I recently bought supergoop play and am liking it. Those are kinda pricey. I also love most of the neutrogena body sunscreens found at the local grocer or Walmart! Never burned once using those on myself and family! Oh and cerave hydrating mineral feels like heaven to reapply on my face at the beach, it’s cooling and soothing to my rosacea prone skin but it leaves a very strong white cast. Hope that helps!
I had one major sunburn as a young girl. This week had an appt with my dermatologist, she took a biopsy of a spot on my face; waiting for results. I’m fair with blonde hair; have been using sunscreen daily for a long time. Hoping for a good outcome. Loved this video. Happy weekend to you.
Update. Basal cell carcinoma. I needs to be cut out….it’s a tiny little spot. Anyone heard of Mohs surgery? That’s what my doc is going to perform. Love my Derm.
You are so smart get it checked. I'm glad it's not a melanoma Mohs surgery has a 99% cure for a spot that has not been treated before, so you'll be fine...thank goodness! Mohs surgery will make sure that no more surrounding tissue will be cut than what is absolutely necessary to keep you safe. This is especially important when it's on you face. Another good thing is that because you have fair skin your scar won't be obvious (or may eventually disappear) if you follow you doctor's intructions properly. Make sure you ask for prescription for some cream to help fade your scar. Sometimes doctors (and pharmacists) have samples to give you if you tell them you are "on a tight budget". Of course you know to wear suncreen every day (even inside), but make a point of contsantly reapplying it to the site of the scar, as then it will fade and heal better. Thanks so much for the update, you will be helping others by sharing your story. 👱♀️❤🧴
That Almay hypoallergenic fragrance free deodorant saved my armpits from irritation and itch due to contact dermatitis from fragrances( and essential oils) present in most of the deodorants on the market. If anyone struggles with armpit irritation and itch due to fragrances in deodorants, give this Almay deodorant a try.
Even after an immediate, long, soapy shower, i can still smell "old chlorine" on my skin. I exercise in a pool and love it, but hate the leftover chlorine smell !
Maybe try something pre-shower to mitigate chlorine smell. I know what you mean though, it seems to get everywhere. I try a light application of talcum powder for just a couple of minutes, then wash with normal body wash and moisturise. Oddly I also find that washing with aqueous cream instead of soap helps
In 2014 I was diagnosed with Aquagenetic Uticaria. Game changer forsure regarding my skin regime. I look forward to the antibacterial spray recommendation, thank you.
Here in the upper Midwest, we went from 40F last week to 89F and humid this week! Whew! Just flipped the thermostat from furnace to air conditioner. Lol!
During hot weather, I keep my moisturizer and sunscreen in the refrigerator since my apartment has no A/C. My roseacea doesn't flare up when applying cool products to my hot face.
Could you do a video on skincare for people with chronic pain. Depending on the condition, it can lead to dry skin, rashes and this feeling of burning skin. I just don’t know what to do and am worried that having constantly dry skin, even when I try to take good care of it, will lead to a consistently compromised skin barrier.
Just yesterday I was perusing Walmart's skin aisle and I saw the gold bond rich moisture, I thought this looks DR. Dray approved. I grabbed it and after my evening shower, I use the Hada Labo Perfect Gel while my skin was still wet, then after I used the gold bond mixed with urea cream for my body. When I tell you my skin felt like "butta", smooth, churned "butta" I added my retinol a few hours after right before bed. I love, love, love the results. 😊
Excellent information… humidity in southern Ontario Canada is brutal. The A/C dries my skin too. Love your sense of humour & music tastes too …I now sing “baby don’t hurt me” with my first sip 😂
If you’re super sweaty like I am, ask your doctor about prescribing oxybutynin. It’s intended for overactive bladder but it really helps cut down on sweat, just drink a lot of water
Does it dry you out? Like your skin/eyes and other moist parts? I sweat sooo much it seriously impacts my life in such a negative way. I also have bladder issues so maybe I should ask about Oxybutynin
@@chelseazaydaraensehon1198 For me personally I mainly had dry mouth, but it can dry your eyes and skin. As long as you take the right dose of 10-20mg a day you can combat it easily with some lotion and eyedrops though. It’s nothing too crazy
Thanks Dr Dray!! Just another suggestion for affordable sun protection clothes; 32 degrees. I know you’ve mentioned them being sold at Costco but you can go on their website and they have some nice breathable long sleeve shirts. Some with hoods. I purchased about a half dozen of them for work. I work outside sometimes. Thanks once again!!
As always, I appreciate your content ☺️ Off topic but Target now has a dupe for Neutrogena Hydro Boost Water Gel. I would love to see you do a comparison review! Also, not sure if you reviewed No 7 Restore and Renew Face & Neck Cream, but would love to hear your feedback on that as well!
Just coming back from the gym… heat + sunscreen + sweat , I was dying hahah I’m using that antibacterial spray (game changer indeed, I even use it as a setting spray after makeup) I use the brand FORTIFY (I would love your opinion on this brand if you have tried it). Thanks for the video and have a lovely day… see you tomorrow.
@@liss441 the antibacterial spray? Not at all, I close my eyes and spray it not to close to my face. The sunscreen while working out and sweating, oh yeah… it happens quite often, I’m used to it hahah
The hypochlorous acid (HClO/HOCl/CHIO) anti-bacterial spray that I use is safe for the eyes. It is an ingredient in some eyedrops and dentists use it too. It can also be used on animals. Most other antibacterial sprays are not safe to use this way! The one I use is called Hydro-E and is made in Australia. It is alcohol free and doesn't sting. If unsure ask your pharmacist. 👱♀️❤
I regularly swim at the indoor pool near my work. I slather my body in Vaseline Advanced Repair before I put my swimsuit on. It definitely helps to keep my skin soft and lessens the chlorine itch. After swimming, I rinse off (fragrance free Dove bar), then slather myself in Vaseline Advanced Repair again. My moisturiser, sunscreen and waterproof foundation protects my face. Before swimming I put a vitamin C hair mask on my hair and clip it in a high bun. I don't know whether the vitamin C ingredient does enough to neutralise the chlorine (if it's stablity is questionable), but at least the hair mask puts a physical barrier between my hair and the chlorine. For those who aren't good at swimming, just do some stretching, or "amateur water ballet", using some foam dumbells under your arms, or a pool noodle. When you don't have to worry about buoyancy, you can move your body anyway you want, upright, on your side, front or back. It's even better if your aquatic centre has a shallow, warm water gentle exercise pool. 👱♀️❤
@@amyfleck1427 Hi Amy, I use Ella Baché "Great Sunguard SPF40 (full/opaque buildable coverage). It doesn't say waterproof, but it is. It has a thick consistancy and covers everything. One tube lasts for ages, you don't need much to cover. It can just be used to cover spots and/or dark inner eye. They have changed the name & packaging many times since I started using it the 1980's as everyday make-up; I looked like a store mannequin! Ella Baché also have "Suncover Great Foundation" SPF50 4 hours waterproof. I haven't tried this yet, but it's next on my list. It has more of a natural look with light diffusing mineral particles. It does say avoid the eyes though. Ella Baché don't have many colours. Mid-price range. However, I also use a similar foundation that is cheap cheap 🐤🐥! It is the "Sace Lady Full Cover Concealer Makeup Waterproof". Use it all over as foundation, or just where needed. I buy it on eBay or Ali Express. Around AU $4! It only comes in a small plastic pump bottle, but it also lasts for ages, because it is so thick. I buy a few at a time, so I have bottles at work, home, car, make'up bag, swimming bag and back-up etc. I have also given some to friends who want to know what I use. I use this everyday (order: sunscreen, primer, Sacelady). Sace Lady have a larger range of colours. It's a fantastic cosmetic brand if you are on a tight budget, or are saving for something special. Very thick foundations are good on spots and dark inner eyes, but they look very aging right under the eyes, they make lines/crows feet look worse! So I don't apply it where my goggles sit. I have "Batgirl" style goggles (rather than the seperate oval ones). I use "Lily Lolo" or "Nude by Nature" loose mineral powder to set & mattify. I hope this helps. Any questions, just ask. 👱♀️❤
Here in Australia I find we are nearly always in summer weather! gotta have fans and air con here especially when sleeping during day for night shift 😴 I used to wear bike pants but not in Lycra to help reduce rubbing of thighs when I was larger and found zinc cream to help repair the barrier when it was broken
I would really appreciate a roll on "stick" sunscreen video. creams and lotions don't work well for my skin, I am curious on your knowledge on sticks, how much to apply, different brands, etc. I recently got a stick from a suggestion I saw on reddit and it works well for me, but I am curious about additional options and if I really am applying enough!
What body sunscreen do you like? I always see lots of face sunscreen suggestions but would like some for the body since it requires a large amount and you go through it faster! Thanks.
I have a little collection lol. One for winter bcuz it moisturizing, one for summer(even tho i dont like matte sunscreen but it works well in the heat lol) one for work ( not gonna use my pricey sunscreen for work) and one that works well under makeup😊
Dr Dray there is a really effective product by Gold Bond which is their chafing stick! I take beach walks and it is essential for the inner thighs on longer walks .
With Summer just around the corner, it can be challenging to figure out skin care. Really appreciate the tips to help keep my skin healthy during the hot and humid weather. You're the best!! Happy Friday, Dr Dray! Hope you, your sweet momma and little Tybee have a lovely weekend. 💞
I seem to struggle during the hot summer days between wearing long sleeve for skin protection (but more uncomfortable & sweaty) or short sleeve with sunscreen (less sweaty but less protection on the skin). Which do you think is a better option ?!
If you aren't going to be in the sun for too long, wear a decent amount of broad spectrum sunscreen and also use a natural fibre summer scarf/pashmina loosely over your shoulders & arms for extra protection. You don't have to schlep around a jacket that way, and can just put the scarf into, or tie it onto your bag afterwards. I also keep a suitable scarf in the car for that reason. They comes in very handy if you are stuck in traffic on a sunny day, or can only get an outdoor table at a café 👱♀️❤
Speaking of Neutrogena, I wonder what happened to their overnight hydration cream? Walmart sold it, but now it's nowhere to be found. It's a shame if it's been discontinued, hopefully it's actually being reformulated, because it does have a rather metallic smell
True, my skin barrier is comprised because of skin on cheeks and lips are dry and peeling. My solution is using essence and hydrating toner to cut down on the sweat loss and bring about the irritation...
Can you do a video on biologics and side effects to the skin? I'd like to know if all of them cause a risk for skin infection or are certain ones more likely to cause skin infections than others? I keep getting skin infections and it is so very frustrating. Finally found a biologic that works well for psoriasis and arthritis but keep getting infections. So once you get them, does it keep happening whether you stop the biologics or not? Or whether you switch or not?
My skin is so dry lately. I'm in the mountains and humidity is 38%. I wear sunscreen everywhere everyday. I have noticed oil cleansing is breaking me out even after a second cleanser. Vanicream gentle face cleanser seems like it's drying me out more lately. Rosacea and sensitive skin is so difficult to deal with. There's hardly any options available for us that have rosacea. 😭
@@mignonalverson655 me too, I love Vanicream products but the cleanser has just been drying me out! I’m not sure what to try next! I have tried Several other brands.
Thanks for talking about prickly heat! I used to get such bad cases when I lived in the tropics, particularly on my nose and upper lip. Man, it burns! Contact with any liquid--water, sweat, moisturizer--was absolute torture. I really feel for little kids who get it. Need to find out if the Skinsmart spray can be used on the face and near the eyes.
I spray my on my closed eye lids everyday because I get eye irritation. They have one for the face and eye area but I think Dr Dray said all their formulas are the same, just relabeled. Not 100% on that.
The more dewy the sunscreen is, the more it reflects light off of any and all texture the skin. Choosing a matte finish, using a primer or applying setting powder would be best. Personally I use a more matte sunscreen to help reduce appearance of my pores.
Bliss block star spf has helped me with this. I don’t even feel the need to wear any makeup when I wear it, which is saying a lot! I have light-medium skin tone.

Please, please, please do a video on how to manage maskne. Wearing a mask has caused my rosacea to flare out of control. Would the anti-bacterial spray you mention here work? Love your content. Please keep it up! Thank you. :)
Great video. Thanks. 😀. I am gonna try the Neutrogena gel. Looks good. Can you do a video for menopause sweats and hot flashes? Like, lotions and tips to be cool from a dermatologist 's point of view. Thanks again. 💜
I came across your channel a few days ago and have binge watch your videos since 😅 Thank you for such great content ❤ Your product recommendations are what we truly need, plus it's FREE! I am a fan of your enthusiasm to share what you know. ❤ I recently ordered the sunscreen you recommended from your other video and the reviews there said that they bought that product because of you. 😁 You truly have huge fans from the Philippines! 🙂
Greetings Dr. Dray hope u r well n 🖐Hello Every1 n Happy Friday😀n what a Wonderful Vid…. thanks n This is Gonna B so Needed🔥👍n Continued Blessings to All💜….
Any tips for already severely damaged skin, red with underneath swelling, layers of dead skin peeling, 3 Dermatologists = no diagnosis, injections of steroids exacerbated, biopsy = undeterminable.
Informative content, love how dewy your face looks! Thanks for educating us, gives motivation to take care of our skin when we know how it benefits us 💛
Hey Dr. Dray! I know this isn’t related to the video but I need help figuring out my exact skin type. For instance, I tried the cleansing method on how to find your exact skin type (where you cleanse ur face and wait about an hour to see how ur face feels, without any product). My results consisted of a regular forehead (not too dry or oily), flaky nose (not oily bit pretty dry), dry around the mouth area - (upper lip, bottom of lip, around nose (like near the cheeks). My under eyes looked wrinkly when smiling and felt dry too. However, during the day, my T ZONE area feels and looks oily, shiny. But my cheeks are pretty regular to minimal tightness and oily ness. But my cheeks are where all my acne is (around the side to side burn area). I never had a problem with acne until now, and my acne won’t go away!! It’s so stubborn!! This has never happened before 🤨 anyways, to add another thing that might affect my skin, I don’t drink a lot of water (maybe like 1-2 cups daily), I wash my face and take care of my skin once a day which at the end of the day feels oily when I glide my fingers through my face. I only eat two times a day really (oatmeal for breakfast and some greasy meal for dinner). I feel I might have combination skin (oily t zone and normal cheeks with minimal tightness). But I have no idea.. if you can help, that would be amazing, THANK YOU 🦋🦋🦋
Salt water pools ARE better for your skin and hair; however, most salt water pools forbid the use of sunscreen. We have a salt water pool in our back yard, and I have to swim either in the early morning or late afternoon when the pool is covered by shade.
@@vetsai8199 Thanks for your reply! I actually read my comment again and I don't know why I asked if salt water pools are better. I know they are! You are lucky to have one :) But having to go in without sunscreen really sucks. Have you thought about getting a rash guard? I saw some cute UPF 50's on Amazon. Also is a salt water pool more expensive to maintain? I am moving to a house with an indoor pool that I dream of converting into one
@@LauraAmanda8888 Oh, yes, I have quite a few rash guards, and so do my grandchildren! But I still wait until the pool is covered with shade before swimming! A salt water pool is a little cheaper to maintain, actually!
@@vetsai8199 Awwh that's so good you are taking care of your family😍 My mom was a hippie and never talked about sunscreen unless you were sunbathing! Thanks for the reply I will make the switch to salt water 🤗
I have contact dermatitis due to my sweat. I cannot wear things that rub on my skin. From clothes to jewelry. I have to wear loose fitting clothes that are breathable. Jewelry must be loose and preferably plastic or beaded, no metals. Otherwise... a walking hive rash and at times blisters. It is pretty bad.
Hi Dr Dray, I wear sunscreen all of the time, I’m fair skinned. I recently was in the sun quite a bit but had sunscreen on and reapplied, a day later I noticed I have a rash on my arms and legs, it’s itchy, blotchy red raised bumps- what is this? I looked on line, could I be allergic to the sun? Can you please recommend something to help heal this? TY. Well wishes for your mom💕
That shade of blue is very flattering to your complexion, eyes and hair.
From the UK we are always waiting for warm and sunny weather.... sometimes it doesn't arrive 🤣 but I still have my SPF on!!

Dr Dray there is a really effective product by Gold Bond which is their chafing stick! I take beach walks and it is essential for the inner thighs on longer walks .
You look so damn good your skin is glowing wow. Youthful appearance
With Summer just around the corner, it can be challenging to figure out skin care. Really appreciate the tips to help keep my skin healthy during the hot and humid weather. You're the best!! Happy Friday, Dr Dray! Hope you, your sweet momma and little Tybee have a lovely weekend. 💞
Glad I found you!!!! 🙏🙏🙏
Happy start for the weekend! 🌸🍀
Happy Friday
Happy Friday, Dr. Dray 🌸🤍🎀😊👒
Greetings Maricel Gundayao hope u r well n Happy Friday😀👍💜….
Have you heard about the study on coffee and cholesterol? It mentions variables based on brewing methods and differences in men and woman.
Greetings d b hope u r well n Happy Friday😀👍💜….
Yes. Interesting, but limited in that it is cross sectional and self reported. Not generalizable , and conflicts with other studies
I seem to struggle during the hot summer days between wearing long sleeve for skin protection (but more uncomfortable & sweaty) or short sleeve with sunscreen (less sweaty but less protection on the skin). Which do you think is a better option ?!
Stay indoors
Maybe try a loose shirt over the top. Not necessarily thin, bit loose, so you get a bit more circulation of air.
@@ethancarter9647 some of us prefer more realistic solutions
If you aren't going to be in the sun for too long, wear a decent amount of broad spectrum sunscreen and also use a natural fibre summer scarf/pashmina loosely over your shoulders & arms for extra protection. You don't have to schlep around a jacket that way, and can just put the scarf into, or tie it onto your bag afterwards. I also keep a suitable scarf in the car for that reason. They comes in very handy if you are stuck in traffic on a sunny day, or can only get an outdoor table at a café
👱♀️❤
I personally just tolerate the extra sweating for the sake of protection lol
Speaking of Neutrogena, I wonder what happened to their overnight hydration cream? Walmart sold it, but now it's nowhere to be found. It's a shame if it's been discontinued, hopefully it's actually being reformulated, because it does have a rather metallic smell
True, my skin barrier is comprised because of skin on cheeks and lips are dry and peeling. My solution is using essence and hydrating toner to cut down on the sweat loss and bring about the irritation...
Can you review more Asian beauty sunscreen please
Can you do a video on biologics and side effects to the skin? I'd like to know if all of them cause a risk for skin infection or are certain ones more likely to cause skin infections than others? I keep getting skin infections and it is so very frustrating. Finally found a biologic that works well for psoriasis and arthritis but keep getting infections. So once you get them, does it keep happening whether you stop the biologics or not? Or whether you switch or not?
Your skin looks so beautiful....thanks for the video!
Thank you so much dear Doctor Dray as always.🙏💐❤️🌷.
Mosquitoes don't just love me, they adore me. Every time I get bit I use Cerave Anti Itch Moisturizing Lotion. It works.
Thank you, love. 💙
Your uploading is next level! Always a new video, always new info, amazing Dr Dray! Thank you ❤
My skin is so dry lately. I'm in the mountains and humidity is 38%. I wear sunscreen everywhere everyday. I have noticed oil cleansing is breaking me out even after a second cleanser. Vanicream gentle face cleanser seems like it's drying me out more lately. Rosacea and sensitive skin is so difficult to deal with. There's hardly any options available for us that have rosacea. 😭
I’m with you about the Vanicream cleanser drying my face!
@@rachelschultz6472 Yea it is and I've been using it for quite some time. 😢
@@mignonalverson655 me too, I love Vanicream products but the cleanser has just been drying me out! I’m not sure what to try next! I have tried Several other brands.
Do you have access to Avène? They have a pretty good rosacea line I'd say ... it worked well for my mom and calmed her skin.
so glad this came out at a perfect time 🤍
Once again Dr. Dray, great video. very informative Thanks
Super Dr. Dray!
Would be nice also to adress the people sweating a lot from the face in hot summer! Very complicated to handle and find the good products! :)
Thanks for talking about prickly heat! I used to get such bad cases when I lived in the tropics, particularly on my nose and upper lip. Man, it burns! Contact with any liquid--water, sweat, moisturizer--was absolute torture. I really feel for little kids who get it. Need to find out if the Skinsmart spray can be used on the face and near the eyes.
I spray my on my closed eye lids everyday because I get eye irritation. They have one for the face and eye area but I think Dr Dray said all their formulas are the same, just relabeled. Not 100% on that.
We need a skin care routine look at your skin!!!!
Why does sunscreen enhance the look of acne scarred skin and what can be done to decrease that look? Love your vids! 💯
The more dewy the sunscreen is, the more it reflects light off of any and all texture the skin. Choosing a matte finish, using a primer or applying setting powder would be best. Personally I use a more matte sunscreen to help reduce appearance of my pores.
Bliss block star spf has helped me with this. I don’t even feel the need to wear any makeup when I wear it, which is saying a lot! I have light-medium skin tone.
I got my CeraVe sunscreen am lotion!! Great tips Dr. Dray!
I love the feeling of lotion on skin 😌
Yeh! Happy summer skincare tips! 😀
Andrea, your lips and brows look great!
Happy weekend Dr Dray....see you tomorrow x💙🤩
You too!
Any moisturizer alternatives ? How about oils (like cocunut or argan oil) or how about butter creams for body?
great tips thanks and happy Friday guys xo

Please, please, please do a video on how to manage maskne. Wearing a mask has caused my rosacea to flare out of control. Would the anti-bacterial spray you mention here work? Love your content. Please keep it up! Thank you. :)
i have two videos on that
Great info☀️
What are you wearing on your lips, Dr. Dray? They look fantastic!!
Great video. Thanks. 😀. I am gonna try the Neutrogena gel. Looks good. Can you do a video for menopause sweats and hot flashes? Like, lotions and tips to be cool from a dermatologist 's point of view. Thanks again. 💜
I like using moisturizer on my skin before I get in the pool, so I have a skin barrier to the chlorine exposure.
I came across your channel a few days ago and have binge watch your videos since 😅 Thank you for such great content ❤ Your product recommendations are what we truly need, plus it's FREE! I am a fan of your enthusiasm to share what you know. ❤ I recently ordered the sunscreen you recommended from your other video and the reviews there said that they bought that product because of you. 😁 You truly have huge fans from the Philippines! 🙂
Your videos are always so informative. Thank you!! Do you have any recommendations for reef safe sunscreen that is good for sensitive skin?
Doc, I was wondering what are your thoughts on the Good molecules retinol cream?
Happy Friday 🧡🧡🧡

Any tips for already severely damaged skin, red with underneath swelling, layers of dead skin peeling, 3 Dermatologists = no diagnosis, injections of steroids exacerbated, biopsy = undeterminable.
Informative content, love how dewy your face looks! Thanks for educating us, gives motivation to take care of our skin when we know how it benefits us 💛
Hey Dr. Dray! I know this isn’t related to the video but I need help figuring out my exact skin type. For instance, I tried the cleansing method on how to find your exact skin type (where you cleanse ur face and wait about an hour to see how ur face feels, without any product). My results consisted of a regular forehead (not too dry or oily), flaky nose (not oily bit pretty dry), dry around the mouth area - (upper lip, bottom of lip, around nose (like near the cheeks). My under eyes looked wrinkly when smiling and felt dry too. However, during the day, my T ZONE area feels and looks oily, shiny. But my cheeks are pretty regular to minimal tightness and oily ness. But my cheeks are where all my acne is (around the side to side burn area). I never had a problem with acne until now, and my acne won’t go away!! It’s so stubborn!! This has never happened before 🤨 anyways, to add another thing that might affect my skin, I don’t drink a lot of water (maybe like 1-2 cups daily), I wash my face and take care of my skin once a day which at the end of the day feels oily when I glide my fingers through my face. I only eat two times a day really (oatmeal for breakfast and some greasy meal for dinner). I feel I might have combination skin (oily t zone and normal cheeks with minimal tightness). But I have no idea.. if you can help, that would be amazing, THANK YOU 🦋🦋🦋
Also I have clogged, enlarged pores on my nose, like these little black dots all over my nose 😭😭
Sadly the Neutrogena Hydroboost gel cream has fragrance in Europe! :( This seems to be the case for every Neutrogena product I come across here
Thank you ! Do you recommend L'Oreal Retinol serum for night time skin routine? It says it's pure Retinol.
Thanks🌸🧿
Thank you for the video
Salt water pools ARE better for your skin and hair; however, most salt water pools forbid the use of sunscreen. We have a salt water pool in our back yard, and I have to swim either in the early morning or late afternoon when the pool is covered by shade.
@@vetsai8199 Thanks for your reply!
I actually read my comment again and I don't know why I asked if salt water pools are better. I know they are!
You are lucky to have one :) But having to go in without sunscreen really sucks. Have you thought about getting a rash guard? I saw some cute UPF 50's on Amazon.
Also is a salt water pool more expensive to maintain? I am moving to a house with an indoor pool that I dream of converting into one
@@LauraAmanda8888 Oh, yes, I have quite a few rash guards, and so do my grandchildren! But I still wait until the pool is covered with shade before swimming! A salt water pool is a little cheaper to maintain, actually!
@@vetsai8199 Awwh that's so good you are taking care of your family😍 My mom was a hippie and never talked about sunscreen unless you were sunbathing!
Thanks for the reply I will make the switch to salt water 🤗
I have contact dermatitis due to my sweat. I cannot wear things that rub on my skin. From clothes to jewelry. I have to wear loose fitting clothes that are breathable. Jewelry must be loose and preferably plastic or beaded, no metals. Otherwise... a walking hive rash and at times blisters. It is pretty bad.
What about shower after pool use and clean your skin w baking soda and moisture Alcoa Vera and apply sun lotion
Hi Dr. Dray! I’m big fan of yours! Thank you so much for educating us🙏❤️
Hi Dr Dray, I wear sunscreen all of the time, I’m fair skinned. I recently was in the sun quite a bit but had sunscreen on and reapplied, a day later I noticed I have a rash on my arms and legs, it’s itchy, blotchy red raised bumps- what is this? I looked on line, could I be allergic to the sun? Can you please recommend something to help heal this? TY.
Well wishes for your mom💕
wearing my tinted heliocare spf every day to work.. even in a hospital on wards with no windows , just in case 😂
