I agree. Dr Dray is not only incredibly knowledgeable, but she is an engaging and entertaining teacher- rendering all the information she provides SO much easier to absorb.
Me too! Just got it 2 weeks ago and love it so far. I've been alternating between this one and Paula's Choice probiotic moisturizer. Hope you are having a great weekend! ☺️
I used to be SO confused by skincare because I felt like nothing ever worked and nothing made sense when I went into sephora or ulta to ask for help. You've really lifted the veil for me and now I've overhauled my whole skincare routine. My skin is more hydrated than ever and my acne is healing. Loving it!!
@@kristinas5714 im using neutragena fragrance free body oil and Cetaphil daily facial cleanser for my double cleanse. I follow that up with The Ordinary's niacinamide and Cetaphil's rich hydrating cream. Once I use those up though, I'm just gonna switch to a moisturizer that has niacinamide instead of doing it in two steps. Ive been using differen every other night but it'll soon be every night. During the day I use La Roche Posays melt in sunscreen milk (holy crap this sunscreen is awesome). Hope this helps!!
So true about the vanicream cream. It saved my son’s skin. His eczema was so painful and it would ooze horribly. After spending hundreds of dollars, Vanicream and theraplex were the only creams that worked for him.
Dr. Dray Thank you for bringing awareness of fragrance free products! We need more consumer demand for fragrance free skin and hair care. I have severe allergies to scents and what people use on their bodies affects me badly.
I’ve been using the Vanicream Tub for years now! I had eczema and this is the only lotion that did not irritate or inflame my skin further. It’s also the only lotion I use on my face because it’s fragrance free and has no irritants. Hands down- my ride or die lotion for sensitive skin. 👍🏼🙂
@@DrDrayzday is the facial moisturizer good enough for the dry canadian winter? For now this is moisturizing for me, but should I switch to the moisturizer in tub for the winter?
I use Vanicream's facial cleanser and love it. It's the best every day cleanser that actually removes eye makeup, even waterproof eyeliner. My skin feels clean but still soft and not stripped.
The vanicream cleanser also containt coco and mica on it, is it can be a devil for people with acne? Just tried it today but im nervouse it can broke me out 🥺 is the moisturizer from vanicream good for acne?
I'm a huge fan of vanicream-free and clear products. I actually think the lite lotion from vanicream is greasier, but I love the thicker cream and vanicream ointment. I work in healthcare and using the ointment has saved my hands from cracking and bleeding.
My daughter gets big, hard, red welts from little mosquito bites. We discovered that if we can get a bit of hydrocortisone ointment on the bites soon after they happen, we can prevent those welts altogether. Always love your videos, Dr. Dray!
Vanicream just saved me from a terrible rash! I developed an allergy/contact dermatitis to Eucerin Intensive Repair lotion and a rash blossomed on my chest, shoulders, and upper arms - all the skin areas I used that lotion on. Vanicream is just as moisturizing as the Eurcerin so I'm very happy with it!
Oh, yay! I love the Vanicream body cream (the tub with the pump). I actually find it more softening than the CeraVe moisturizing cream. I use the CeraVe on my face. Both contain quite a bit of product that lasts some time. I would have never considered purchasing either item before watching your recommendations. Since working the pandemic as an ICU worker I feel like my skin has suffered tremendously, but these basic and inexpensive products help.
@@Zaldygibbson98 I just got me a tub of vanicream. I've been using cerave cream and lotion and just wanted a switch in my skin care. How is Vanicream better than cerave? I actually bought it based on this video. I must say it is thicker than cerave cream and it took time for it to sink in on my skin though.
@@savithrivenugopal how was your experience in switching from cerave to vanicream? ive been using cerave for years now but it's occurred to me that perhaps they changed something because it's no longer moisturizing me, and i've also been considering the switch
@@eldericnoble9761 I didn't like the vanicream in the tub, too oily and it sits on my skin. I got me vanicream in the bottle with a pump on Amazon and love it, still using it till this date. It's a lighter version but sinks into the skin and moisturizers.
I’m oily, acne-prone (used to be very, very oily. Now only lean a little to the oily side), and I’ve NEVER had issues with Squalane by itself or in anything. I never understood the warnings for us. With that said, I really like the vanicream daily moisturizer 😁
Cerave definitely changed their formulas once L'Oreal took them over. I used their moisturizers forever, until one day I got a new bottle of the AM and the ingredients were in a different order and some others were added/missing. My skin was not happy! I just picked some of this up from Walgreens along with their cleanser and I can't wait to try them! I use tretinoin and I've been trying to find a nice simple routine to compliment it. Right now I'm using an aloe based skincare line, but some of the 'botanicals' in their formulas are causing me irritation and red flare ups.
This product has changed my skin for the better! I have been suffering from severe cystic acne lately (hormones, yay) and I am planning on getting the vanicream gentle face wash next. Thanks for all your reviews! They really help more than you know.
Hi Dr. Dray! Thanks to you I have over-hauled my face skin care routine and threw out all the expensive 12 step procedures I was using. Very simplified now and cheaper and most importantly less irritating on my 69 year old skin. Thank you!!!
My favorite product by them is the moisturizing cream, it’s literally my holy grail! So soothing for both oily and severely dry skin. I used to have oily skin before I got on accutane, loved it then and love it now. I now use it on my accutane treatment for really dry skin 😁♥️
My forehead used to get SO itchy all the time when I used my cetaphil moisturizer. Switching to vanicream was a God sent and the itch magically went away. No irritation at all. It’s a little heavy, but who cares!🙂🤗
I bought both the CeraVe Moisturizing Cream and the Vanicream Moisturizing Cream after watching your videos. I like them both but sometimes the CeraVe does make my skin red at which point I switch to the other one. I also use the the Vanicream under my eyes. It is the best for me I think but they are both great and very affordable. Thanks so much for your information. I am so glad to find face creams that are affordable and don't make my skin irritated/red. Hope your Mom is doing well.
@@carmenrose8986 Thank you for responding, I have the same skin type😀. One last question, does the moisturiser work for you? Without congestion and breakouts?
Recently I’m suffering contact dermatitis from mask wearing 😷. I changed my face wash to Vanicream Gentle face wash (you recommended it in one of the sensitive skin/ skin rash videos). It works well! I’m always looking for a face wash without sulfate. I combine this with the big tub Vanicream cream. I can feel the dermatitis was gradually calming down. Thank you DR. Dray for recommending this!
Amazon is selling their brand, Solimo, as a dupe for the Vanicream. I’d be very interested in your opinion. While Vanicream is not terribly expensive, the Solimo is significantly less.
I got Solimo and its a standard moisturizer. I dont trust it on my face tho so I use it on my neck, hands and body. It works as a moisturizer should. I never put it on my face tho like I said cause I dont have 100% trust on Amazon brands. I doubt Amazon does it's intensive research on ingredients and doesn't think too much about the individual buyer's specific skin conditions. Its just a cheap product to sell. It does work tho.
you have already got me hooked on Vanicream! I love it. FYI, I was getting really bad razor pimples under the pits (I live in AZ and the heat has been terrible so lots of sweating!) so I started using Vanicream deodorant and Panoxyl. Worked perfect and still using!
The BEST moisturizer ever! That’s all there is to it. I think my skin does better with this BECAUSE it doesn’t have Niacinamide. Thank you Dr. Dray for turning us all onto this brand!
I'm from Minnesota, too, but living unhappily in the South. I miss Minnesota Nice. Most folks there are reserved, but gentle and polite. Favorite state!
I loooove Vanicream products!!! I currently use Vanicream moisturizing cream, gentle body wash, lip SPF. I'm about to try the anti-perspirant & use it at night per Dr. Dray's recommendation. Thanks again for great products. ❤
Thank you for reviewing. I've tried the Cerave Cream and the daily moisturizer. Both broke me out in the same type of rash 😞. Will give Vanicream a try.
this new daily facial moisturizer is something i can no longer live without. it is life and face-changing! haha. perfect texture, so nourishing, such improvement in my skin.
Vanicream moisturizing cream is the BEST; it is my daily moisturizer and I always put it on while my skin is damp. Vanicream was also my saving grace during a bad eczema breakout a few years back and I just continued to use it. Thank you Dr. Dray!
Allie Brad once I learned to stop using soap allover the body and only to specific areas and apply moisturizer immediately after showering while skin is still wet didn’t take long to see a big difference. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
📌📌I use both vanicream wash and the lite lotion for face I have very sensitive skin post menopausal fungal acne it's worked wonderful thanks to Dr Dray !!!! Will purchase this new one hope they don't change things on me !!! 💜💜💜💜
Thank you dr dray for making me aware of this company. I’ve recently bought almost all of their products and only use vanicream accept for the cerave sa smoothing cleanser and my skin especially my face hasn’t felt and looked so good in my life.
Thank you Dr. Dray for mentioning that some of us get a burning, stinging reaction to Cerave. I am one of those who just cannot use it.I tried it once a few years ago and that was enough. My skin seems to react to a lot of things, I have to be very careful with my skin care. I just finally discovered the Vanicream facial moisturizer! It is wonderful. My skin loves it because there is nothing in it to irritate my skin. So far I am using it day and night. I love it!
I’m obsessed with Vanicream thanks to you. Def need that new moisturizer. Also I just started on Differin and using all your tips! No irritation so far! 🙌🏻
I am a dermatologist nightmare cause everything doesn't go with my skin. I have seen some who say "I have never had anyone have an issue" and lord and behold I react. I use vanicream lotion on my body and love it. I recently bought the Vanicream daily facial moisturizer and no issues. I haven't reacted or anything. So I will continue to use it. I recommend. I have eczema so I can't have any crazy ingredients.
My nickname is Lizard! Funny, just a few minutes ago my friend asked what sunscreen I was using today. Vanicream. Then she asked my favorite lip cream. Vanicream. Then, how’d you hear about it. You know the answer!! Dr Dray!
Liz Gro So I just purchased the sunscreen and put it on for the first time today! I got it from Amazon. Definitely doesn’t smell nice at all LOL reminds me of pool float and a little bit of port-o-potty? Haha! But it’s definitely much more emollient and shiny then say Drmtlgy. However, this might actually be a great thing for me because I have such a hard time with mineral sunscreens causing drying of the skin through the day! I did apply moisturizer underneath, La Roche Posay Toleriane Double repair.
I will say, That vanicream moisturizer I only use when I visit Colorado cause it’s the only state where it absorbs. I do live in south east Florida which is a very different climate
@@itsmimi3154 i used this moisturizer back in early November when the weather was nice in Chicago, and it broke me out, im going to try this moisturizer again since it’s a lot colder now, has it caused you to break out?
@@wydmatt7294 so far so good!! No irritation or breakouts. I think it’s actually doing wonders at repairing barrier damage. My skin still feels smooth and amazing even after washing it off the next day.
Dr. Dray!!! You made me buy cerave moisturizering cream and I fell in love..but I have been using vanicream facial cleanser and loving it...so I am gonna give this chance too!!!
Making my purchase today! I was using a facial skin moisturizer from SkinCeuticals, not anymore. I am going to finish up what I have left and order my first Vanicream moisturizer. Idk why these past two years I have been spending so much more money on moisturizer. Not anymore. Thank you Dr. Dray!
Ordered this and received last week but I’ve been waiting on your review lol. I am 35 and have acne prone skin and on Tretinoin. I keep worrying that this may clog my pores bc it happens soooo easily on my skin plus I’ve never used anything heavy on squalane. Working up the courage to use it and hoping it helps my skin rather than causing breakouts. Fingers crossed!
Sounds like we have similar routines lol I have been able to get rid 80% of my clogged pores using tret but I’m scared too order this because I don’t want any more cc’s lol
I’m also 35, have been through the ringer with my skin since I was super young. I bought The Ordinary Squalane and wanted to love it after reading how great it was everywhere but it just made me even more oily. Even the CeraVe Renewing SA cleanser makes me oily and I breakout more. It’s so frustrating.
I used Cerave PM for the first few months of this year. I began getting those white bumps (milia?) on my cheeks. Then, my face started burning etc. I bought an Olay SPF. product for Normal skin. It also burned. Then I noticed that the difference between the normal and sensitive versions was...niacinamide. So, I just dropped money for a super jar of Neutragena at Costco. However, I will definitely try this Vanicream facial moisturizer. I guess the only anti aging product my face will tolerate is SPF 50.
Cerave is also loaded with fatty alcohols, and they love to put coconut derived caprylic triglyceride high up on their ingredients, which can cause problems for people sensitive to coconut derivatives. Any creams Cerave makes break me out horribly and irritate my rosacea. I’m a way bigger fan of Vanicream, Cetaphil, and Eucerin. ❤️
I use the Vanicream Moisturizing Cream in the tub on my 1 year for his dry skin (I am in Arizona, so very dry here) and it is the only thing that helped his eczema/dry patches!
Can you please make a video on how to take care of curly hair? Is gel bad for your hair, cause curly hair people need gel to make there hair not look frizzy and poofy
There are a lot of gels without drying alcohols and whatnot that should be fine for the hair :) The issue is that a lot of them touch my face and break me out. I know Vanicream(Free&Clear) and a brand called Fragfree make fragrance free gels available on amazon. I'm going to try those out soon and hopefully they dont bother my skin as much. I would like to see a video about this as well.
There are a lot of curly hair channels out there, maybe look into those. There is the curly girl method, and the LOC/LCO method for styling after the wash that you may want to look into!
If you want a natural gel, you could also look into making a homemade flaxseed gel. It works really well! There are many videos on TH-cam about it. Naptural85 has one as well as many others. Just look up flaxseed gel for hair. All you need are flaxseeds and water. ☺️
Started using the Vanicream Facial Moisturizer in the morning and it really absorbs very easily. Am going to get the Vanicream Moisturizing Cream for winter because of its occlusive quality.
I bought the Vanicream lip SPF a month or so ago on your recommendation and I love it. I put it on right after I brush my teeth in the morning and then again after lunch and I spread it way around my lips onto the skin as well for an extra layer of protection. It's such a great product. Thank you for that recommendation!
I had the same issues when I first started using ordinary niacinamide, so I stopped using for a while. I restarted using it again with no problem, my skin looks very good now. I have been using ordinary hyaluronic acid , niacinamide, cerave moisturizing and retin A.
Hey Dr Dray how’s your Mom doing? Hope she’s good I couldn’t find an update video. BTW I purchased Vanicream last winter per your recommendation and it was Great I have Dry skin and that was the 1st time my skin didn’t look dry and flaky throughout winter TY

Thanks for reviewing this, Dr. Dray! Vanicream is my favorite skincare brand because I do not tolerate niacinamide very well. I can't wait to try out this new moisturizer. I usually use the Vanicream lotion or the CeraVe body lotion for my face, which works well, but this looks like something I could try! Thank you!
Dr. Dray, thank you so much for recommending the daily facial moisturizer I bought it due to your recommendation and I have been loving it and recommend it to everyone!
I'm going to try vanicream. I have tried many products over the years and my skin is so sentiment to anything. I quit wearing makeup and using any product on my skin except mild soap and water for two years and it is in better shape than it has been in a long time. I want to start wearing makeup again, but want light and airy. I'm loving these videos.
Oh my gosh I love the Vanicream ointment. Its one of the few things I can put on my neck and face and it doesnt feel icky. I also use the lip SPF ... I like the way it makes my lips look white.
Happy Thursday Dr. Dray! So glad to hear you discuss Vanicream as an option because my daughter just experienced some stinging from her Aveeno moisturizer and needed a new option. Perfect timing.
Before covid, been using Hada Labo Premium Hydrating lotion and always has dry skin. Starting this year, tried Cerave PM Facial Lotion, then I ended up with acne😂 it's time to give Vanicream a try
Idk why cerave sting around my nose. May be it is the niacinamide. THAT vanicream moisturizer and body wash is everything. I'm soooooo happy I found this. And at walgreens.
I wish Vanicream was available in India. And the sites that import them to sell, have very expensive customs. Currently using sunscreens from YesStyle.
I tried the Vanicream cleanser based on your recommendation and really did not enjoy the experience of using it, nor the way my skin faired afterward. It's simply not for me. Thanks for the video, anyway, Dr. Dray - I hope you and your Mom are doing as well as you can!
Is the cleanser a foaming cleanser? I've been looking for an alternative to the CeraVe foaming cleanser bc I can't find it anywhere! So I was thinking of checking this one out
Love, LOVE the Vanicream cleanser. I recommend it to everyone. As you mentioned, you can use it to double cleanse. Apply it to dry face first to break up makeup and sunscreen, rinse, then apply it wet and it lathers very slightly. I have dry skin and it doesn’t make me feel dry. It makes me want to try their other products.
I’m 42, and I have this moisturizer use it in the warmer months . It’s quite nice . I use a heavier one in winter Maybe I should try the thicker VaniCream one in wintery months ...🧐 Right now I use Shea butter at night, and it works lovely for me, but ONLY at night, as it’s very oily , but my skin loves it. I oil my face up at night goood
The vanicream cleanser also containt coco and mica on it, is it can be a devil for people with acne? Just tried it today but im nervouse it can broke me out 🥺 is the moisturizer from vanicream good for acne?
I love all the other Vanicream products so much, I ordered this the minute I saw it was available. Unfortunately, this burns like Cearve does on my face. I can use the original Vanicream cream with no problem, but LOVE the Illiyoon face cream with Ceramides that you recommended in the past for people who had burning with Cerave. It is a bit of a hassle to get it, but works amazingly on my super sensitive, highly acne prone skin.
Hi Dr Dray!!! I am from Bangladesh. I would like to thank you for your informative videos. You hv helped me a lot. I have the most strange skin with large pores, Dark patches, and dull complexion. Your videos just saved me from ruining my skin any further. Thank u 🙏

The cream just isn’t doing it 😭😭 which do you use ?
@@arielleedwards7163 I use vanicream lite on my face and vanicream in the tub on my body. Their Robathol oil for the tub is great in the winter.
I'm from Minnesota, too, but living unhappily in the South. I miss Minnesota Nice. Most folks there are reserved, but gentle and polite. Favorite state!
I love Vanicream, particularly this product. Also, from Minnesota.
The vanicream moisturizer is the only one I've ever used that doesn't break me out or cause a flair up of the redness around my mouth and nose.
Which moisturizer do you use ?
I loooove Vanicream products!!! I currently use Vanicream moisturizing cream, gentle body wash, lip SPF. I'm about to try the anti-perspirant & use it at night per Dr. Dray's recommendation. Thanks again for great products. ❤
i actually called CeraVe and they did change the formula by several ingredients in December 2018
Thank you for reviewing. I've tried the Cerave Cream and the daily moisturizer. Both broke me out in the same type of rash 😞. Will give Vanicream a try.
CeraVe didn't work for me but loving Vanicream!
CeraVe broke me out too but Vanicream has been great for me!
Cerave gives me hard knots on my chin. So does the Cerave sunscreen. I love the Vanicream-even the tub one doesn’t break me out.
how did daily moisturizer work for you? Im trying to buy this one but im afraid the squalene will break me out.
this new daily facial moisturizer is something i can no longer live without. it is life and face-changing! haha. perfect texture, so nourishing, such improvement in my skin.
I LOVE vanicream lol. Such a good brand
Vanicream moisturizing cream is the BEST; it is my daily moisturizer and I always put it on while my skin is damp. Vanicream was also my saving grace during a bad eczema breakout a few years back and I just continued to use it. Thank you Dr. Dray!
I watch Dr. Dray's videos in between the Dynamite music video. I like my day happy and informed like that.
Vaniply/cream ointment worked better than anything else for my extremely dry lips while I was on accutane. Highly recommend, I agree!
Im receiving vanicream bar soaps and vanicream hand cream tomorrow from amazon ❤️ Cannot wait to try them out!
That cleansing bar is good i have been using it a year.
Uncle Charlie i was hoping i made a good choice in purchasing it! Thank u!
Allie Brad once I learned to stop using soap allover the body and only to specific areas and apply moisturizer immediately after showering while skin is still wet didn’t take long to see a big difference. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Uncle Charlie thank u for that tip!
Allie Brad 👌🏻
📌📌I use both vanicream wash and the lite lotion for face I have very sensitive skin post menopausal fungal acne it's worked wonderful thanks to Dr Dray !!!! Will purchase this new one hope they don't change things on me !!! 💜💜💜💜
I used to use Cerave PM morning and night. I recently switched to this and my skin has never felt more hydrated.
I’m allergic to niacinamide so I’m excited about this moisturizer!
Me too! I wasted so much money on products before figuring out what the culprit was that inflamed my face.
I’m allergic to niacinamide too!
Ya same. Found out the hard way
That's why I don't like Cerave because of the niacinamides, but I absolutely love the new vanicream for sensitive skin.. my favorite moisturizer ever!
When I used cerave that had it in it then I realized my skin does not like niacinamide and I’ve fully switched to vanicream.
Thank you dr dray for making me aware of this company. I’ve recently bought almost all of their products and only use vanicream accept for the cerave sa smoothing cleanser and my skin especially my face hasn’t felt and looked so good in my life.
Vanicream is the only thing that took away my eczema and I have tried many creams.
Thank you Dr. Dray for mentioning that some of us get a burning, stinging reaction to Cerave. I am one of those who just cannot use it.I tried it once a few years ago and that was enough. My skin seems to react to a lot of things, I have to be very careful with my skin care. I just finally discovered the Vanicream facial moisturizer! It is wonderful. My skin loves it because there is nothing in it to irritate my skin. So far I am using it day and night. I love it!
I’m obsessed with Vanicream thanks to you. Def need that new moisturizer. Also I just started on Differin and using all your tips! No irritation so far! 🙌🏻
how did the differin go? i just ordered some but im scared to start it because of the purging
This is so exciting- I’m allergic to niacinamide and can’t use most of Cerave products. Thanks for another amazing video 👏👍
I am a dermatologist nightmare cause everything doesn't go with my skin. I have seen some who say "I have never had anyone have an issue" and lord and behold I react. I use vanicream lotion on my body and love it. I recently bought the Vanicream daily facial moisturizer and no issues. I haven't reacted or anything. So I will continue to use it. I recommend. I have eczema so I can't have any crazy ingredients.
My nickname is Lizard! Funny, just a few minutes ago my friend asked what sunscreen I was using today. Vanicream. Then she asked my favorite lip cream. Vanicream. Then, how’d you hear about it. You know the answer!! Dr Dray!
You use the sport sunscreen? How do you like it? I am contemplating getting this one!
@@ashlynnkaplan680 One of my top three for face SPF. Nice consistency.
Liz Gro So I just purchased the sunscreen and put it on for the first time today! I got it from Amazon. Definitely doesn’t smell nice at all LOL reminds me of pool float and a little bit of port-o-potty? Haha! But it’s definitely much more emollient and shiny then say Drmtlgy. However, this might actually be a great thing for me because I have such a hard time with mineral sunscreens causing drying of the skin through the day! I did apply moisturizer underneath, La Roche Posay Toleriane Double repair.
I will say, That vanicream moisturizer I only use when I visit Colorado cause it’s the only state where it absorbs. I do live in south east Florida which is a very different climate
Ahhh I just bought the Vanicream Facial Moisturizer and live in SoFlo. What’s wrong with it? Did it cause any breakouts?
@@itsmimi3154 i used this moisturizer back in early November when the weather was nice in Chicago, and it broke me out, im going to try this moisturizer again since it’s a lot colder now, has it caused you to break out?
@@wydmatt7294 so far so good!! No irritation or breakouts. I think it’s actually doing wonders at repairing barrier damage. My skin still feels smooth and amazing even after washing it off the next day.
That lip spf is where it’s at. I use that and the elta md daily and their the best
Dr. Dray!!! You made me buy cerave moisturizering cream and I fell in love..but I have been using vanicream facial cleanser and loving it...so I am gonna give this chance too!!!
I absolutely love the new Vanicream moisturizer!
Making my purchase today! I was using a facial skin moisturizer from SkinCeuticals, not anymore. I am going to finish up what I have left and order my first Vanicream moisturizer. Idk why these past two years I have been spending so much more money on moisturizer. Not anymore. Thank you Dr. Dray!
You guys! Happy Thursday!! Love Vanicream, the cleanser is sooo gentle when I get a rosacea flare💕
Ordered this and received last week but I’ve been waiting on your review lol. I am 35 and have acne prone skin and on Tretinoin. I keep worrying that this may clog my pores bc it happens soooo easily on my skin plus I’ve never used anything heavy on squalane. Working up the courage to use it and hoping it helps my skin rather than causing breakouts. Fingers crossed!
Sounds like we have similar routines lol I have been able to get rid 80% of my clogged pores using tret but I’m scared too order this because I don’t want any more cc’s lol
Phineas Smith exactly!
I’m also 35, have been through the ringer with my skin since I was super young. I bought The Ordinary Squalane and wanted to love it after reading how great it was everywhere but it just made me even more oily. Even the CeraVe Renewing SA cleanser makes me oily and I breakout more. It’s so frustrating.
Amy W do you plan on trying the vanicream daily facial moisturizer?
By the way the Cerave acne foaming cleanser is sooo helpful to use at night for breakouts
I used Cerave PM for the first few months of this year. I began getting those white bumps (milia?) on my cheeks. Then, my face started burning etc. I bought an Olay SPF. product for Normal skin. It also burned. Then I noticed that the difference between the normal and sensitive versions was...niacinamide.
So, I just dropped money for a super jar of Neutragena at Costco. However, I will definitely try this Vanicream facial moisturizer.
I guess the only anti aging product my face will tolerate is SPF 50.
CeraVe pm broke me out so I’m guessing it was the niacinamide. I’ve been using Vanicream and it has been amazing!
I feel good...I am not the only one that niacinamide hate...straight up whiteheads and bumps all over!!! Dont know what I did to him...lol
Cerave is also loaded with fatty alcohols, and they love to put coconut derived caprylic triglyceride high up on their ingredients, which can cause problems for people sensitive to coconut derivatives. Any creams Cerave makes break me out horribly and irritate my rosacea. I’m a way bigger fan of Vanicream, Cetaphil, and Eucerin. ❤️
@@wolfsyn7741 which cetaphil moisturizer do u recommend?I am suffering from rosacea as well.
@@wolfsyn7741 any sunscreen recommendation?
CeraVe products are so drying to my skin, which confuses the heck out of me. 🤔
I use the Vanicream Moisturizing Cream in the tub on my 1 year for his dry skin (I am in Arizona, so very dry here) and it is the only thing that helped his eczema/dry patches!
Well, looks like I'm going to the store to buy some right now...
@@Discordia5 I hope it helps! I still use it on him and he is now 2 :)
Can you please make a video on how to take care of curly hair? Is gel bad for your hair, cause curly hair people need gel to make there hair not look frizzy and poofy
There are a lot of gels without drying alcohols and whatnot that should be fine for the hair :) The issue is that a lot of them touch my face and break me out. I know Vanicream(Free&Clear) and a brand called Fragfree make fragrance free gels available on amazon. I'm going to try those out soon and hopefully they dont bother my skin as much. I would like to see a video about this as well.
Check out Manes by Mel
There are a lot of curly hair channels out there, maybe look into those. There is the curly girl method, and the LOC/LCO method for styling after the wash that you may want to look into!
If you want a natural gel, you could also look into making a homemade flaxseed gel. It works really well! There are many videos on TH-cam about it. Naptural85 has one as well as many others. Just look up flaxseed gel for hair. All you need are flaxseeds and water. ☺️
@@blackeneddove Or just plain aloe vera gel, that works sometimes too, although it has less hold!
Started using the Vanicream Facial Moisturizer in the morning and it really absorbs very easily. Am going to get the Vanicream Moisturizing Cream for winter because of its occlusive quality.
I bought the Vanicream lip SPF a month or so ago on your recommendation and I love it. I put it on right after I brush my teeth in the morning and then again after lunch and I spread it way around my lips onto the skin as well for an extra layer of protection. It's such a great product. Thank you for that recommendation!
The ordinary Niacinamide and zinc gave me little bumps all over my face, I was so disappointed since I heard lost of good things about it ☹
Most likely purging, maybe caused too much irritation
Samee with ordinary Niacinamide & zinc!! It gave me a bunch of whiteheads and I never get those
@@Kay-bd1ht yeah ...and also felt irritated and itchy.
@@armidap.6346 sammeee
I had the same issues when I first started using ordinary niacinamide, so I stopped using for a while. I restarted using it again with no problem, my skin looks very good now.
I have been using ordinary hyaluronic acid , niacinamide, cerave moisturizing and retin A.
Hey Dr Dray how’s your Mom doing? Hope she’s good I couldn’t find an update video. BTW I purchased Vanicream last winter per your recommendation and it was Great I have Dry skin and that was the 1st time my skin didn’t look dry and flaky throughout winter TY
Katie H We are all wondering. No harm in expressing concern! Wish we knew too.
@@charlygonzalez8433 Give me e a break,, asking how someone is when they have told you they have cancer is a caring , natural thing to do. Quit being so self righteous !
Charly Gonzalez you’re doing way too much. It was a mere inquiry. I’m sure Dr. Dray would answer under her own discretion.
@@charlygonzalez8433 This is the first time I've seen a question about her mom. I'm sure I'm not the only one who doesn't see these "constant" questions as you call them. Please be more polite when replying to people.
Love vanicream! Would you consider making a video on marijuana effects to the skin?
Good question!
Yes!!
Yes
Vanicream is my hands down go-to. I love it and the fact that its vegan and cruelty-free. 💕🌿
Is it????? This makes me so happy because I didn't want to switch from it when looking for cruelty-free stuff
Hiiiii! Happy Thursday Dr. Dray! I hope everything is fine due to hurricane Laura! 🙏❤🤗
Happy Thursday! Thank you so much! So far so good
@@DrDrayzday 🤗🙏🙏🙏
Your eyelashes are awesome! What mascara do you use?
@@DrDrayzday can i use vitamin c serum with this cream ?
Holly Rich She uses Maybelline Colossal, non waterproof!
Thanks for reviewing this, Dr. Dray! Vanicream is my favorite skincare brand because I do not tolerate niacinamide very well. I can't wait to try out this new moisturizer. I usually use the Vanicream lotion or the CeraVe body lotion for my face, which works well, but this looks like something I could try! Thank you!
Dr. Dray, thank you so much for recommending the daily facial moisturizer I bought it due to your recommendation and I have been loving it and recommend it to everyone!
Love watching your daily videos in between my zoom school calls
thanks for watching! hope your studies are going well
I'm going to try vanicream. I have tried many products over the years and my skin is so sentiment to anything. I quit wearing makeup and using any product on my skin except mild soap and water for two years and it is in better shape than it has been in a long time.
I want to start wearing makeup again, but want light and airy. I'm loving these videos.
Oh my gosh I love the Vanicream ointment. Its one of the few things I can put on my neck and face and it doesnt feel icky. I also use the lip SPF ... I like the way it makes my lips look white.
I really hope Vanicream follows Cerave to the UK someday
Some products are now available in Canada if that helps!
I love the cerave products. The moisturizer cream , bar soap, am lotion . It works well with not hurting my hand dermatitis.
Happy Thursday Dr. Dray! So glad to hear you discuss Vanicream as an option because my daughter just experienced some stinging from her Aveeno moisturizer and needed a new option. Perfect timing.
Before covid, been using Hada Labo Premium Hydrating lotion and always has dry skin. Starting this year, tried Cerave PM Facial Lotion, then I ended up with acne😂 it's time to give Vanicream a try
Idk why cerave sting around my nose. May be it is the niacinamide. THAT vanicream moisturizer and body wash is everything. I'm soooooo happy I found this. And at walgreens.
CeraVe PM works super well for me, but I always turn to Vanicream when my skin is struggling.
The gentle facial cleanser is my holy grail. I don't find it drying AT ALL and it gets all of my sunscreen off.
👍
I wish Vanicream was available in India. And the sites that import them to sell, have very expensive customs. Currently using sunscreens from YesStyle.
I tried the Vanicream cleanser based on your recommendation and really did not enjoy the experience of using it, nor the way my skin faired afterward. It's simply not for me. Thanks for the video, anyway, Dr. Dray - I hope you and your Mom are doing as well as you can!
I’ve been using Vanicream Gentle Cleanser for years and love it!!
Is the cleanser a foaming cleanser? I've been looking for an alternative to the CeraVe foaming cleanser bc I can't find it anywhere! So I was thinking of checking this one out
ellise yeah it is
I live in Colorado, and we are now in Winter. My skin suffers so much! I can’t wait to try this!
Love, LOVE the Vanicream cleanser. I recommend it to everyone. As you mentioned, you can use it to double cleanse. Apply it to dry face first to break up makeup and sunscreen, rinse, then apply it wet and it lathers very slightly. I have dry skin and it doesn’t make me feel dry. It makes me want to try their other products.
Hi Dr Dray,I ordered my Vanicream spf from Walgreens,the top area around the cap completely cracked off.I am going to send a pix to Vanicream.🙏🌈👒🌻
I’m 42, and I have this moisturizer use it in the warmer months . It’s quite nice .
I use a heavier one in winter
Maybe I should try the thicker VaniCream one in wintery months ...🧐
Right now I use Shea butter at night, and it works lovely for me, but ONLY at night, as it’s very oily , but my skin loves it.
I oil my face up at night goood
Love Vanicream! Cerave has a new cream to foam cleanser I would love for you to review. Happy Thursday!
The vanicream cleanser also containt coco and mica on it, is it can be a devil for people with acne? Just tried it today but im nervouse it can broke me out 🥺 is the moisturizer from vanicream good for acne?
I love all the other Vanicream products so much, I ordered this the minute I saw it was available. Unfortunately, this burns like Cearve does on my face. I can use the original Vanicream cream with no problem, but LOVE the Illiyoon face cream with Ceramides that you recommended in the past for people who had burning with Cerave. It is a bit of a hassle to get it, but works amazingly on my super sensitive, highly acne prone skin.
The same thing happened to me. Was very excited to use it but it burns when I apply it to my face. Had to wash it off 😢
Hi Dr Dray!!! I am from Bangladesh. I would like to thank you for your informative videos. You hv helped me a lot. I have the most strange skin with large pores, Dark patches, and dull complexion. Your videos just saved me from ruining my skin any further. Thank u 🙏
I use the vanicream z-bar and started to use the regular facial bar. I also use the moisturizer for face. Great product.
I love vanicream! Happy Thursday doc great video! :)
Thanks! You too!
I've had this in my Amazon cart for a few weeks thinking about trying it for eczema. Ty for the input!!
The things that happen from the view of your window a baby Gekko and bubbles you should of filmed that for sure! Vanicream is wonderful and we don’t have it in our shops but Amazon does. If you are reading and listening Vanicream the U.K. market needs you here!!! 🇬🇧👍🐶
So excited to try this out. Vanicream is amazing! Cerave unfortunately makes my face ruddy and then my skin tone overall looks darker.
Love all the Vanicream products I have tried from Dr Dray videos especially the shampoo!
