Why I QUIT Skincare Videos (Dermatologist)

- Skincare videos are some of the most popular types of content on the internet - but the skincare world has a dirty secret... it's basically all nonsense. In this video, I highlight the problem with the skincare industry, teach you the essential ingredients to help with the most common skin problems, and explain why this will be my last ever video about skincare.
SKINCARE PRODUCTS I PERSONALLY USE:
Keep in mind what I said in this video - this isn't to say these are THE BEST products out there, just that I personally find them good, affordable, and evidence-based in theory. I'm not sponsored by any of these below companies.
Cervae Moisturizing Cream (my daily moisturizer): geni.us/A2CT
La Roche Posay Hydrating Cleanser (my daily cleanser): geni.us/TBAnM
La Roche Posay Tinted Mineral Sunscreen (sunscreen for skin of color): geni.us/EJXv
Differin Gel (adapalene - a retinoid) : geni.us/4mAPAO
La Roche Posay Adapalene (as above, but slightly more fancy): geni.us/poEAc2
Neutrogena Retinol (weaker than above two, more hydrating): geni.us/cpAMAxb
Cerave Healing Ointment (for chapped lips): geni.us/T975
TIMESTAMPS:

2:25 How Do I Know Which Product To Buy?
5:00 So Why Do We Recommend Certain Products?

The dream is that, over time, we can together build a REAL database to show which skincare products ACTUALLY make a difference, and which ones are just marketing BS. Join the Stratum movement if you support this mission!
Can you talk abou aloe vera gel?
Interesting!
People need to know what they can use that is NOT harmful! What doesn't clogs pours, is not toxic if absorbed (or otherwise), doesn't strip the skin of things it needs, doesn't cause dryness, and is generally not bad for the skin. Then the effectiveness of those products can be explored. Info about what some people may have allergies to or may have a sensitivity to needs to be a separate conversation.
Well one year later and you do still make a lot of skincare videos. Did you make a follow up video or something?
Inthink its interesting im mote curious about ita potential for .akeing custom formulas
Recently, I saw the morning skincare routine of an skincare influencer. She uses 7 products, same in the evening, every day. Then she proceeds to tell how she does a "skincare diet" once in a while where she only uses 3 products and that her skin stops breaking out when she does this. And at no point does it occur to her that maybe, just maybe, she does not need all 7 products every day....
😂
This actually happened to me too. The whole time I thought I was severely acne prone with sensitive skin. I tried almost everything and it help a little, but not completely. Then I just stopped doing everything except just clean and moisturizer. My skin started to calm down and actually get better.
I realized a lot of men have really good skin because they don’t over do it like we women do.
@@TheSilentsymbol well yeah they dont wear toxins(make up) on their face everyday then wipe it with more abrasive chemicals (make up removers) every night. Its little wonder the well groomed men with basic hygiene and lotions look so good
Haha I think I know who you mean
That's the thing most people who have bad skin use a lot of skincare and it doesn’t occur to them that their skin might actually be fine and the "skincare" is the problem, what makes it break out.
I suffered with painful "cystic acne" for years and spent so much time and money on dermatologists and products. Took a food intolerance test and eggs and almonds have been destroying my face this WHOLE TIME!!! Eliminated these ingredients and haven't had a breakout since. Hope this helps at least one person.
It doesss!
Yk Z, I had breakouts all over my face after puberty for years, took many tests, creams, meds for skin & balance hormones, had my self-esteem droop to h3ll
Turned out to be food allergies (mainly) I got to know about the tests via a newspapee ad, & thank god I decided to throw in some money
All there's left now is some stubborn scars from before
@@vaidehi_n I absolutely ruined my face after I attempted micro needling after watching some yt videos. The last time I watched, they moved on to shaving their face. I did notice milk and caffeine trigger breakouts as well, something the test doesn't test for. Dealing with scars myself. Recently have been applying Tretinoin so I guess we will see. Best of luck to ya.
How do I get this testing ???
@@cailey_gene I took an Everly Well test. They mailed it to me and I mailed it back then they emailed me the results. I paid $25 to a walk in clinic to draw blood and fill out my card because the first attempt I was not able to draw enough from my finger. They supply you with everything.
How to take that test?
i got attacked once because i told a skincare "influencer" that using 10 different skincare products is too much
Same happened to me
I only double cleanse only if I have makeup or sunscreen on. When I don't I cleanse with one cleanser. I don't have 10 step.
Having too much is too much.
Were you surprised? It is their business and livelihood and they have come to probably actually believe most of it works.
ive seen alot of skincare videos too, and i’ve always thought about how weird it is to have to use 10 or MORE products 😭😭
As I have grown older I have learned that when it comes to make up and skin care products: "less is more".
So if I use none, it’s infinity?
Woo ! Gonna get that dewy smooth skin with zero products
Less is better always
I had really clean skin before i started putting serum and specific creams now my skin is not that clean as before
Okay, thanks for sharing this! I have also begun using a serum and a new high-brand face cleanser and have never been unhappy@@janapaunovska
@@RoflJoker1994Sure we don't have the ideal skin naturally after hundred thousands years of evolution, but a random cream will make you look good cause pharmacy companies are angels and want you to have a healthy skin.

Very rare to find

@@wrathc53 Is he another derm? Whose trustworthy ?
I am suspicious of all skincare channels who have their own brand, especially after the shit show that was Susan Yaras Naturium launch.

Poverty, especially during my teenage years, has shielded me from so much bs products and routines, I'll never be ungrateful for that.
Wow! That’s just proves how living with less or struggling in this world is more. I think what you just said was brilliant. It’s a brilliant insight. I agree. I’m 54 and living on the least amount of money I have ever lived on. I have been for about 12 years. It’s taught me so much and I’m no longer wasteful at all.

@@Logicalsane Never too late my man. go for it, don't let age be a barrier for your success.
@@Logicalsanego for it man I have plenty of friends who are 30+ and succeed at college
Every time I feel the pressure or urge to buy more skin care products I watch a video like this and it brings me back to reality. Thank you 😊
I have started purchasing serums to try out for $1.25 at the dollar tree sometimes it's just fine to try something new but I'm certainly not justifying spending $30 on it
This is such a brilliant video… Genetics & diet play a huge part in how your skin develops! I’ve been in the beauty & hair business for 40 years, it’s so refreshing to hear to hear the truth & not someone scamming or merching their wares!
"body dysmorphia for skin" - that line right there is a grand summary of the skincare industry and its deep pockets.
Skin dysmorphia
Body dysmorphia actually already includes skin, it is not limited to a shape of a feature.
This is how companies make their money.. body dysmorphia. These companies tell the world you’re not good enough you need this!!! It’s disgusting
Yeah that's so it! Quitting skincare is the best decision i've ever taken!! I made a video about this topic too, if you are interested in hearing my personel journey and some greats advices that helped me to get a clear skin! Thank you ❤
Yeah. Go ahead and stop taking care on your skin. No one's stopping you. Don't blame society if you fail in the dating world and end up losing to the Darwins law lmao.
Many years ago there was a product called Oil of Olay, which was suggested by a great many dermatologists. Due to curiosity I asked my dermatologist why this product was so highly recommended. His response was "Because dermatologists own stock in the company. "
I used it in my late twenties and got acne from it. My dermatologist said rather heatedly, I see 4-6 women a week with the same problem and nine times out of ten they’re using that damn Oil of Olay! It’s full of beeswax and plugs up the pores!
Damn 😂😂
Lmaoooo typical
it's funny that you mention them because I have tried many different lotions and continue trying them but oil of Olay is it really the only one that I enjoy on my face and continually keep coming back to it
@@cicin9313 my husband always called it oil of old lady 😂😂😂😂
Appreciate your honesty. As someone who still gets ID'd everytime I buy alcohol at 35, washing my face with warm water before and after sleep, and some moisturizer is all I have ever used.
I think there is one PAINFULLY relevant thing that not many talk about - diet.
Exactly. Also, everyone keeps equating skin = looking younger. People forget about bones. Like skin, this deteriorates too which makes people look "older."
The actual painfully relevant thing is genetics.
Diet has no scientific effect on skin apparently. Unless the shitty diets make skin clear and perfect lol.
Um. Genetics.
@@DickMullen41why not both, also nutrition is something more of a choice for a lot of people than genetics 😂
Well done. You have affirmed what I have suspected for decades. Few in the industry have the courage to do so! Thanks.
I was in the cosmetic industry for 10 years, and just recently made the switch to a career in tech. When i first started in cosmetics and skincare, I genuinely believed I was providing value and people were benefitting. As soon as I realized it was a revolving door of newness, uninspired products, and a marketing circle jerk I knew I had to jump ship. The consumerism was/is appalling.
and it only caters to females
Thats how i felt about the fashion industry. Thought I wanted to work in it for the artistry and creativity…🫠
this is exactly why i left my
job as a makeup artist inside a popular retail store. so much cognitive dissonance. the companies try to put out these messages along the lines of “everyone is beautiful!” but yet it’s all about pushing products people don’t need by convincing them it’ll make them feel better. management always getting on you for not wanting to flat out lie to customers. it all wears on your conscience heavily. couldn’t stand it anymore
@@standardofexcellence No. There is an entire movement of marketing and catering to *men* it's just way more targeted through Facebook and Instagram and TH-cam. The global *men's* personal care market size was valued at USD 30.8 billion in 2021. By 2024, the global male grooming market is estimated to be worth about 81.2 billion U.S. dollars. Chanel launched the Boy de Chanel range in 2018 with a foundation, lip balm and brow pencil and has added further products such as eyeliner and nail polish over the last 12 months (between June 2020-2021).
@@violetviolet888 Absolutely, you're spot on. Tie that in with a culture that is obsessed with instant gratification, and has low attention span - the industry churns uninterrupted. To your point about extractive unsustainable practices, there's the whole trend on CLEAN beauty, which has consumers convinced and kept at bay for the time being lol.
Nothing has left me feeling uglier than the skincare industry. Thank you for showing people like me that there's nothing inherently wrong us. It's all just about money.
Filters. Filters. Filters.
Never have wore make-up i sweat too much on face plus very sensitive eyes clique was on brand other than bear minerals that didn't bother my eyes have had attuded dont like me dont look 😐 😑 at least you see what i really look like
This is what I’ve been saying about the makeup industry but every time I say something about it some girls get offended and say something like “well I use make up for me not for others to see” while applying 20+ products on their face. If it were for the make up industry they’ll be more than happy if you used not 20 but 40, 60, 100 products on your face. Is all about the money 🤑🤑
if it wasnt for skincare my skin would be F'ed!
@@Sunny-kt1ni Do you always get this flustered when someone just simply and calmly explains their point of view? lmao
I am just so glad to see a dermatologist talking this way. Thank you ! I had massive problems with my hair and skin for years until I understood thanks to my studies and experiences that almost all my problems came from the the food I was eating. I changed to a way more natural nutrition based on raw local products : vegetables, eggs, fish, meat, unprocessed food and well, all my skin problem is gone. I don't use anything but 100% natural products for my skin such as clay or rhassoul or natural oils and same for my hair. Never had a problem since then !
We truly need more people
Like you In the world. Not just in skincare, but in all areas of life. Honest, to the point and genuine. 💯💯🗣
Things I've learned, as I've gotten older and focused more on skincare than makeup:
1. Sunscreen, sunscreen, SUNSCREEN. Literally an ounce of prevention early on is a pound of cure.
2. Everyone is an individual; what works for one person may not work for you.
3. Look at your parents; depending on how much sun they got when they were younger, that's how you'll age (see point #1).
4. When someone tells you "you have great skin!" just believe them.
Your vitamin d levels must be -50.
A lot of women are ocd about sunscreen and sun exposure. Unless you're going out into the sun every day or work outside you don't need daily sunscreen
You don't have to age like your parents. Especially if they smoked and drinked or were overweight/eating too much.
Sunscreen is bad for you 😬😬 I used to be psycho about my sunscreen and sun exposure but learned how bad sunscreen was, the most holistic healthy way to protect from the sun is covering your skin and big hats that block your face
Sunsceen can cause cancer
Your skin depends on 80% on the inside (what you eat and your health) and only on 20% on the outside (skincare), because skin is also an organ just like your heart, lungs and blood
Yes! Also 25% of the way our body works is genetics. so it’s all 75% lifestyle and that goes for anything
Exactly
there are fat people eating shit all day having perfect smooth skin .
true im still having hard time to quit smoking
@iz444 omg girl quit! You are to pretty. I smoked when I was young and it's horrible for your face and teeth. Thank goodness I quit and recovered. Try a book by: Allen car. He has one on smoking and one on drinking. I'm struggling with giving up alcohol. But his audio book helped alot.
I thoroughly enjoyed this valuable information! As an individual being diagnosed with teenage acne and adult acne, this video has been the best and realest that I've seen thus far! I'm so sick of these "rabbit hole" video content creators putting out information that they are NOT board certified and educated about just to grab that all mighty dollar and views! Many are actually doing more harm than good! So, Dr. Syed, thank you, thank you, thank you!
Thank you a million times for the clarity!
My mother, at the age of 83, never had one line on her face. She really had amazing skin. All she ever used was a flannel and water to clean her face and a moisturiser. That old favourite is called Olay.
She used to say to me over and over . DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY. It's all lies to make money from poor old vulnerable people.
I'm I'm 59 now , mum is no longer here, but she was right !
Me myself wasted a fortune, on almost everything, , making NO difference. But not anymore. I'm going to listen to my mum ❤
My Grandmother also had amazing skin. She too used 'Olay' and soap and water. This guy makes so much sense.

Yes! Agreed!
I bought a book many years ago called "The healthy skin diet" and it's all about internal health, with good nutrition, water, sleep and good breathing. Good internal health is reflected in the skin for sure.
Who's the writter?
Can you explain the good breathing part please?
Good breathing like belly breathing?
@@nunomartins467 take a deep breath in through the nose for 10 seconds, trying to get the breath down into the lungs then blow out slowly through the mouth for ten seconds. Hope that helps.
Skin care doesn’t give you great skin it enhances it . For example lack of sleep will cause sunken eyes or dark spots although there are products to help it will do very little . If you use all the daily moisturizing creams but what good is it if you don’t drink water . I won’t say products don’t help because I for one def notice when I stop my skin looks worst. But to say they do nothing is a stretch
You are a wonderful,transparent,mindful,aware and insightful human 😅

Thank you for your transparency and integrity. And I shall continue to follow you 🎉🎉❤
Thankyou for looking out for us! The world needs more honest people like you.
Honestly, I've noticed regardless of what skincare products I use, the only time my skin is clear is when I eat clean, cut out all processed foods and limit sugars and keep hydrated. Saved me a lot of money haha the only products in my skincare routine are a simple facewash and nivea lotion amd my skins doing great 🤣
Yup
100%
💯.. it’s all about diet & exercise
i can perfectly relate, although my skin still struggles from time to time probably due to the fact that i do not always eat 100% clean 😂
I think what cleared my skin was finding an effective, mikd cleanser. I use a bunch of other products for hyperpigmentation but i don't know how much they actually do. All i know is my skin looks way nicer than before and the red spots are almost gone. Idk, it doesn't seem to harm my skin and it's not too expensive, so what's the hurt?
It's so funny. I already knew this and told my friends and no one believed me. So so happy you did this. All of a sudden everyone has a skincare line
I’m so over all the skincare lines. Cleanser, retinA, moisturizer, vitamin c, spf is all you need.

p.s. what you see online through the camera lens w flash, lighting and most certainly concealer and foundation should not make you feel worse about your real unfiltered skin // and shoutout to celebs and influencers when they show their actual skin with blemishes and imperfections. we should have skin positivity after body positivity now

Agree- I am an FP also.🩺
@@ChristopherCraven At 3:23 he starts to explain how you would do research that actually provides evidence for a general population. If that kind of research existed, you could say that a product actually works for skin in general. But since that research does not exist, the scientific conclusion is: 'we do not know if this works, since there is no evidence.' Anyone who tells you it *might* work is speculating, which is to say they are neither right or wrong since it was not proven. Just like you are speculating when you are making up random numbers like those percentages.
TH-cam reccomentation got me here and I'm happy to finally see a professional talk CLEARLY about this! Enough overhyped overpriced products where majority of the cost goes to packaging and the brand name.
Your honesty is refreshing. Thank you.
What you said about social media is actually one of the most unethical aspects of the overgrown skincare market. Skincare companies exploit our desire for perfect skin and lead people to believe you can achieve that with just their products. In reality, many influences are using makeup, filters, lighting, and procedures to look "flawless," and it's easy to forget this. A simple skincare routine which prioritizes sun protection is a great thing, but it can only do so much.
Ya people are stupid thinking all these magical stuff would help them instantly and they would wake up with beautiful skin they should have just follow the old rule drink enough water, eat enough fruits enough nutrients, EXERCISE, literally SLEEP enough
Because health =/= ever-changing beauty standards. Being "beautiful" doesn't mean you're healthy, being "ugly" doesn't mean you're unhealthy. It's just that this obsession with beauty didn't get to everyone, so marketing companies had to up their game and make it all about health. Well I discuss my health with my doctor based on how I feel within my own body, not with vain morons on the internet.

@@xoli.8780 because it’s a deceiving comment, in so many ways lol. If your skin looks good and you use soap to wash your face, use “moisturiser where & when needed”; it’s definitely genetics.

Our diet affect our skin more than skincare
MORAL OF THE STORY : The best skincare product is the one that works best for you; not the most expensive one, not that 'imported' one, not the one that a certain youtuber recommended, not the one that has best ratings, reviews; specially not the one which has the fanciest name & ingreds. Skincare is subjective.
My problem is I’m new to skincare, well a teen, but I’m really confused on how to start trying and also scared to get worse by trying 🥲
@@Kiokatz_you should probably start of knowing which skin type you have, it will help you look for products that will help your skin
@@Kiokatz_ You need to first understand your skin type and what it needs(ex: dry skin needs hydration, combination skin needs lightweight hydratation etc....), then you need to understand if your skin is reactive\sensible(usually, sensible skin tends to get red easily and reacts real bad to aggressive care, by getting irritated, flaking etc..), then you unfortunately just have to find your skincare products through trial and error. A good rule is to learn how to read ingredients lists(ingredients in high quantity are on top of the list, the ones on the bottom are in smaller quantity), avoid products with "alcohol" and "denat.alcohol"(other types of alcohol are fine), avoid products that contain too much silicone(usually, every chemical in skincare that ends with -one is a silicone) and research ingredients that have a number attached, to see if you're willing to compromise with them being in an otherwise good product.
There is a lot of compromise and trial\error to find your ideal skincare, and you sometimes need also to switch good products because the skin can get "used" to them, sometimes your skin will react weirdly to things that have worked on most people.....for example my oily and acne prone skin reacts BAD to any skin product purposefully made for it and completely ignores any anti-acne product, but takes very well stuff made for combination skin and serums with 1-2 active ingredients🤷🏻♀
@@Kiokatz_
Maybe pink bottle oil of olay would be an awesome start for you. I wish I thought to start skin care in my teens or twenties. I am 47 now. My skin is not bad, but could be better. I barely got a couple fine wrinkles on forehead but do got some age spots ( one person mistaken it for freckles ). My parents did not show age until their late 50s. But my father passed just barely turned 78. One day he decided to shave off hair and beard and mustache, wanting a change. He looked as if he could be brothers with my bio beother and extra brother. He looked as if he was mid 50s to around 60.
People find it hard to believe I got a grown son. On average, people guess me to be almost mid 30s. Once I lose my 100 pounds, hopefully that will drop me down to looking like my son's sister. 😂😂😂😂😂
But the weight loss for me is about wanting to prevent future health problems and not vanity and being example for my son and nieces and nephews.
Edit: For three years, I been using sensitive skin baby wipes to clean my face.
I think the moral of the story was don't use skincare just clean up your diet instead
That was an awesome video!!! I miss authentic and sincere videos like this one.
All you need for youthful skin.
1. An egg a day. The whole egg. Vitamin A is retinol
2. 2 liters of water day day
3. 25-36 grams of fiber a day.
4. Moisturizer, a simple one (Bioderma is my fav brand).
Is it okay to use retinoin for years??
Fiber is overrated
@@yummysushipyjamasdefinitely not
Trust me, I never had any skin related issues until I started following the so-called "perfect skin care routine". The day I went to basics, my skin started healing on its own. Please don't fall into this social media trap and if you have some serious skin related issues then better consult a good dermatologist.
@@e.f241I would imagine basic can be pretty personal. I say this because my “basic” is actually: skip foaming cleansers often, don’t wear makeup most days, use a humidifier, and moisturize moisturize moisturize. It’s taken me a decade to figure out this routine for me, but it wouldn’t work for everyone.
Clearly a bot.
Same here
I agree, 10 products on your face 2 times a day is absurd.
I use a mild gel cleanser and moisturizer in the morning and before bed. Then sunscreen (and more moisturizer) throughout the day as needed. I use a mild exfoliator once a week. I have no wrinkles, and my skin has a healthy glow.
Me too I use soap, moisturizer sunscreen and at night retinol.
I use one product at day: sunscreen and three products at night: cleanser, tretinoin and moisturizer. I've been doing this same routine for 11 years now.
Great routine!
And how's your skin?
would love to know how good it's worked
Could you share the specific brands for each or do you go go around changing between them because anyone works?
I'm actually going to my gp tomorrow to get a script for tret. I've been reading all about it for a few weeks now. A friend suggested it to me. I can't wait to try it.
Wow love this skincare cheat sheet! So helpful. I get so overwhelmed sifting through the 10000s of products available. Keep science simple!
WOW MIC DROP! Thank you for this!!! I find myself recently getting more into skincare but also deep down knowing that it’s mostly marketing. I feel a bit better that it’s okay to have some blemish and hyperpigmentation!
I went back to basics about 8 months ago. Trying to keep my skincare very simple: cleanse, moisture, spf. Deep facial self massage maybe once a week. Healthy diet, exercise whenever I can. My skin haven’t looked this good in years. Haven’t started on retinol yet. Maybe in a couple of years .
Thank you for your honesty, Doctor. It’s a rarity these days.
My pleasure! Glad you’re finding the sweet spot for you skin!
Well you should try retinol, it's the true-one holy grail, but not a must. Most high end or myth product just not worth the price, i do go back to the basic after a while.
Same. And worse, I realized that all the experimenting made my skin sensitive and acne prone. Now I use just a simple cleanser, moisturized, acid and spf, and cerave, low-cost cerave!, is the mkst effective and least irritating for me. My adult acne is finally gone and I haven't had sensitivity in ages.
😅😅what about sun cream 防曬油

Thank you for this sobering video, we need more of this. My skin was a wreck in my teen / early 20s, which I learned as an adult was due to hormones, stress from dealing with toxic family and friends, and using the wrong products due to lack of knowledge. I'm in the second half of my 30s now and my skin is not as fussy due to a combination of better stress management, suitable products, and aging (as I age, my skin gets less oily naturally and my hormones are stabilizing).
Things I've learned:
1. Time and consistency are often the missing ingredients not listed / talked about. You need to stick with a routine that works and give it time for the result to show up. Even Accutane that I took as a teen took 3 months to clear up my skin.
2. If you're battling acne, find out which type. Different types of acne calls for different solutions.
3. Body-mind connection is important (I would break out from stress)
4. Good skin is just a small piece of puzzle in life's bigger picture. I know a woman whose skin and hair are so sun-damaged from doing a lot of outdoor sports and she also bikes everywhere. I know she uses sun protection but it can only do so much. But she is one of the happiest, warmest, most positive, and most elegant women I know. Her life is so rich and it seems she seldom thinks about how she looks and more about what she wants to do next.
Suggest a dermatologist for skin checks😉
Great advice.❤
This is precisely the kind of social media that needs to go viral. It is a new thing, and it is being abused. Realistic, honest, informative information is the way forward. THANK YOU!!! and congrats for focusing on actual, vital and useful information. Keep fighting the good fight.
Go on for ever, u r well informed/educated/academic, credible, to the point, and great sense of humour...
As an Ambassador for a UK skincare company, I'm thankful for you saying this.
Skincare is actually quite straightforward and only requires a few steps, done routinely.
Diet, lifestyle, genetics all play a big part.
It took me years to settle on a routine that I'm pleased with and now I'm not messing about with it.
What do you use ?

Common sense, skincare equals better skin vs dryness or none equals horrible skin. Don't believe one inexperienced wanna be dermatologist.
Finally a sane dermatologist out there who isn’t giving out reviews and recommendations, and just repeating themselves.
Very easy on the eyes 👀 🔥
Look forward to your new content. The best part of this video beside the honesty? The part where you said not to spend more than $30/product. I have gotten sucked into the "granola crunchy all organic skincare" "movement" and it is so much marketing bs! Like they seem to push the false narrative that your skincare routine defines you. I appreciate your clarity and I will be saving my $$
Found this on my feed.. and I’m so thankful.. I was so confused by all these so called trendy skin care influencers. They make you so insecure about your own skin and body 😢. I don’t like using expensive skin care products and I don’t have time and energy to follow the hundred steps skin care regime… I believe in simplicity in everything including skin care and hair care. I’m so glad I found this video. 😊❤
Wow... Just, wow. That was the most honest TH-cam video I have ever seen. My hat, sir, is tipped. Thank you.
Ahh, very kind of you, thanks!
This video coupled with your interview with Ali is going to save me and so many others so much unnecessary stress, time, and money on skincare. So grateful to have watched this content, seriously thank you. God bless you.
Thank you Zahra!! Glad it helped
look into geek and gorgeous
Your name sounds Muslim. You guys have best skin care recommendations in your hadiths. Olive oil, honey dates, wash five x a day with water. That's it! 🤦♀️🤦♂️
Thank you for being upfront and honest! I totally agree 100%!!!!
I was attracted by skincare videos a lot from this past month thanks for saving my time and money earlier!!
Btw I really appreciate your honesty man!!
You are so right about the body dysmorphia. I started getting into skin care, like many, during the pandemic when I had more time to scrutinize every part of myself. I began by working on some dark spots and now, two years later, even though my skin is in great shape for a 45-year-old guy, the slightest new texture, flaw, bump, or redness sends me into the toilet. Recognizing that is when I realized my skin care "journey" (how I loathe that term) had spawned some darker effects.
Sometimes, I wish we could all "Stop the clock!" I am 67 years old.
I'm still very thankful to some of the skincare influencers. They helped me understand my skin needs and broke down all the ingredients on your table, so now I can at least navigate the market. If I had seen that list in your video before watching skincare YT, I just would end up further damaging my skin. In my early teens I used to wash my face with solid hand soap and then apply 30% salicylic acid in alcohol because of my neighbours' recommendations or apply really stinging toners. At one point I just stopped and started a routine consisting of a gel wash and a moisturiser, but still dealt with dryness, peeling and burning in some areas. I tuned in to skincare YT in a very right time and was able to restore my skin barrier, start treating my acne and finally feel my skin is healthy
Yes just looking at that Infograph without any prior knowledge can definitely lead someone to damage their skin further, and become very frustrated. Some of these ingredients might be too strong for some, esp if you’re using them at once. I feel like skincare influencers can be really helpful. Some products even with a few of the same core ingredients can have different effects on people’s skin which is why skincare influencers/people who review skincare can help. It’s really all recc from personal experiences, just like anything else.
Same lol. I used to use an awfull soap and had like a mixture of super dry and greasy skin in some parts. Now I simply cleanse with a cleanser, mosturize and use sunscreen. My skin changed a lot for the better
I'm really not sure you could blame this video for any damage you would've done to yourself when he shows a list of ingredients that actually are effective
@@R_S747 it doesn't matter if they are effective for the most people. This man hadn't explained how to incorporate them into a routine or even included which percentages are safe to use. For the longest time my main concern was acne, of course I would look straight at that section. The problem is usually the ingredients proven to help with it are quite harsh, even people with healthy skin barrier might experience some irritation or peeling after using them for the first time. If they continue to use them with the right frequency and amount of active ingredients, they will be fine, however using such products way too often, using too many products with the same purpose at once (like exfoliating wash + exfoliating toner + exfoliating cream) or applying them to already damaged skin will definitely do its harm. For example, I didn't know I had damaged skin barrier, so I would definitely harm it more. Solely this video is not informative enough and might lead to misconception
@@yevhenia2518 he has other videos on his channel that explain those things, thats not really the point of this video. It's just saying there's no solid evidence for most over the counter skin products and no one can guarantee how well they will work. I'm just saying you can't blame this video or this guy for any of your own decisions.
Best skin care video I’ve ever watched!!! Seriously love the honesty and realness!
Thank you so much!! Need more people who are transparent and Honest in the internet!
I simplified my routine after realizing this awhile ago. Stopped watching all skincare/makeup videos too. We have complicated our lives unnecessarily with all of these products; not to mention the amount of time people waste doing "routines" when that's time that could be better spent doing literally anything else to better ourselves. Now.. it's cleanser, a small % retinoid product every other day, Cerave thick daddy moisturizer and SPF when needed. I have a few serums leftover from experimenting, but I honestly never touch them. So tired of this consumerism based society.
How's using 4 different products simplified?
@@TonyTynebridge It's a cleanser, moisturizer, exfoliant, and sunscreen. That's pretty simple.
@@ovoc6712 4 products is not simple 😂

Way to keep it real. This is the most helpful skincare advice on the whole internet. You just saved me a lifetime of trouble. Thank you so much!
I am in my 40s, and as i child i remember the same obsession with skin, so it isn't just social media. There was no social media, but there was media and peer pressure. All the girls wanted clear clean skin, and all the guys wanted deep tans, and all sorts of crap. I think that the beauty industry has had their claws in us longer than we all want to admit, and these younger people on social media are not any more vulnerable or gullible to this twaddle than anyone else when there has been dodgy skin care stuff floating around since the time of the Romans.
Of course there was pressure before, I am 41 too, but imagine growing up today, surrounded by filtered selfies daily, the pressure to look good at all times, even when alone in your house, imagine growing up with advertisements at the tip of your finger 24/7, as opposed to when we grew up that was just at the commercials while watching tv o reading a magazine. Clear skin was a much more reasonable goal, today it is “glass skin” which is unattainable, specially if you’re not korean. I bet people you know weren’t injecting Botox (or anything at that price point) in their 20’s when growing up, as they are now, for the sake of “prevention”. People today, and specially teens have this old as time pressure but times a million.
gotta remember, people used magazines covers and beautiful commercials to showcase beautiful skin...which influenced millions to buy these products...its been going on since the invention of media which consist of all the filterd pictures in newspapers, magazine and magazine covers, TV, and the unseen on the radio...and don't forget the tons of makeup they wear...just live for your best mental and physical health, surround yourself with friends who love you for you and not what you look like (which is really immature when you think about it) and you will be great..
There has never not been a time in human society, when the skin’s appearance (particularly for wimmins) hasn’t been “a thing.” We have been wrecking ourselves for arbitrary “beauty” goals since humans lived in groups.
Meanwhile I need to control sugars and simple carbs intake, not only I get acne form them but my mental health worsens if I eat a lot sugars.
My body is simply really sensitive to sugars. In both sides of my family there are diabetics.
The narcissistic society we've all been born into has always been like this, it's just never been easier for humans to act like a hivemind and so directly share/absorb insecurities, anxieties, aspirations as well as most of us seeing less real people closely every day over the people online who roleplay being naturally insanely beautiful yet also try to make us think that same insane natural beauty is achievable lmao. And all of this is even more applicable to kids and teenagers
My grandmother had great skin her whole life despite being very fair and never using sunscreen or any serums, she washed her face with bar soap and moisturized with whatever lotion she had on her counter. While she did get wrinkles her skin remained even toned and radiant. She did however, eat lots of fruit and veggies and little sugar.
So much to do with genes.
@@destinychild4659and good diet clearly
@@enyojochristianahabu6621 no diet can fix damage caused by the sun. Not wearing sunscreen is dangerous. She got lucky.
Absolutely agree! I have never worn sunscreen or used endless skin products. I do eat very healthy, athletic and live a stress free lifestyle. I get asked if I'm my 27yr old son's sister...I'm 47.
@@madisonstone3258 that's cool, but most people don't have the genetics to have those results
You’re Gold! This is what we all need. The TRUTH of everything in this society.
So true! 👏And the fact that some dermatologists on TH-cam always talk about skin care because they have their own products on sale and in the end the only purpose is to advertise and praise them.
This is so true. Influencers are a scam these days. They take money and review every product. People are spending a lot on skincare blindly. I never buy anything based on what I see on social media.
They really are! Cassandra Bankson (NOT her real name, whatever it is) is one of the scam-miest, cringiest ones out there. She's sponsored up the yin yang.
This was like a fresh breath of air! Thank you 🙏 My faith that people out there still have integrity has been restored ☺️
haha thank you!!

Fantastic! Wow, what a relief to hear honesty!
This makes me sad
When all this skincare stuff started going viral, I was obsessed trying to find what was best for me, eventually it worked: a cleanser, any moisturizer for normal to greasy skin and sunscreen. But I saw all the videos of ppl with perfect glass skin buying all these products I didn't stop there and kept on buying what they used, specializing The Ordinary and La Roche Posay products. My skin never improved, and on the contrary, it even got worse, I had acne scars and dry skin, until it was just hurting. It took me a while to realise I didn't need any of this, and now my skin maybe not glass skin but it's healthy. Plot twist, this happened when I quit processed foods and came back tl my three step routine, I still buy face masks every once in a while just for the experience, but now I know I don't need any of these
Atlast someone said it!! They even advise you to use sunscreen even if you are inside the house just so you empty your sunscreen and buy again. Before, they only recommend it when your are exposing yourself in direct sunlight.
*My expensive skincare running out*- me coming on here looking for more expensive skincare to spend my hard earned money on- finding this video- breathing a sigh of relief at all the money I’m now going to spend on more important things. Maybe I’ll get a plane ticket somewhere. Me and my wallet thank you 🙏

One thing that helped me the most with my acne was improving my hygene. Changing my pillow case and towel daily, washing my face twice a day, washing my glasses etc. Moisturizing is also important from my experience (everyone's skin is different but moisturizing helped me more than any anti-acne product I've used).
Also not using ur bare hands or fingers. Clean skin club has biodegradable facial towelettes
I remember when Jessica Simpson did ads for Proactiv because she had acne all along the sides of her face. Years later she said in a magazine interview that she would never wash her hair until it stunk. I'm guessing that was the real problem right there.
Soooo true, dude you just said what is in my mind 😭
@@handlenot030🤦♂️
@@handlenot030No it’s not! Washing your hair is good for you! You can wash your hair everyday if you want to too. It’s a myth to get your scalp in control of oil by not washing it as much.

@@usamasyed 😃
@@usamasyed Could you kindly educate me on whether retinoids can remove acne scars or cause them to fade a bit? I am using retinoids prescribed by a GP and i want to manage my expectations
Thank you so much for this! I've recently gotten into skincare after never really caring before, and it's amazing how quickly I find myself caught up in what almost seems to be a "cult" of skincare. And I absolutely agree with the "why" behind this, which you addressed on multiple fronts. Overall, I am going to aim to keep it simple, do my best, but focus most of my time on accepting the aging process.
After watching so many skin care routine videos just to cut time when I’m bored and almost tempted to buy some of those products,this is what i wanted to hear. This is just so true and on point.
haha no problem keeping them up as entertainment, just best not to get too absorbed by spending money on all those products!
I was so tired, at one point I wanted to buy a 3in1 like the men!😭
Yes! I’ve been telling people for years that skin doesn’t absorb nutrients, it can’t get through the upper layers. It’s good to moisturize but that’s about all that’ll work topically 😆
My grandmother had the best skin.she used a bar soap and vaseline.everytime i want to buy an expensive product,i remember this.i think genes play the biggest part.
If I did not tan so easily, I would have loved to try Vaseline!
Genes play 100%. Not 99%. 100%. No matter what you do. I know an alcoholic who smokes a pack of cigarettes every day. He looks better, younger, and has less wrinkles than my healthy friends who work out every day and abstain from alcohol and smoking and keep perfect skin care routines.
@@handlenot030there's nothing to wait because I know people in their 70 who smoked a whole life, drink alcohol and they have amazing skin and look 10 years younger. It's all genetic.
Then explain identical twins that have different looking skin. Obviously genetics plays a big roll but it's well established that sun, smoking, alcohol all affect your skin.
@@dylannorman1471 Identical twins don't have the exact same genes. They're the same when the zygote gets fertilized but after it splits, both of them can undergo different mutations. It's also possible for one embryo to get more cells from one parent, so if the mother had clear skin and the father had severe acne, it's possible for one twin to inherit clear skin and the other to have acne.
Thank you for being one of the truthful creators.

Ditto! Refreshing as cold water in the summer. 😊
Ruth Anne, you just need to have reliable sources and know who to trust.
For instance: someone commented that snail creams are a "gimmick". Here was my response:
"Snail creams are not a "gimmick" if the ingredients are accurate. Snail secretion filtrates are rich in something called glycosaminoglycans which function as growth factors and serve as a resource for helping things like skin cells regenerate. Which in our skin is very helpful when we're dealing with a damaged or impaired skin barrier.
Medical scientists and researchers have done studies on this looking at it in the setting of something called *radiation dermatitis*. Patients who get radiation for different types of cancer can end up with damaged skin, and develop horrible people rashes almost like a burn that is very very uncomfortable. This wounded skin needs help regenerating. Snail secretion filtrate has been shown to help expedite the restoration of that damaged skin barrier from radiation dermatitis. It has also been studied in wound healing and has been shown to enhance wound healing.
It has also been studied with burned skin. The glycosaminoglycans from filtrate are actually offering growth factor potential and humectant/ When we have a wound, the new skin cells have to have to kind of dance into place and that can be very challenging particularly if the wound bed is dry, parched and inflamed. Snail secretion filtrates can can help expedite skin healing because it's rich in these growth factors and humectants. Studies have shown this is a mechanism for a more robust outcome.
Hopefully you won't get cancer, need treatment, and need the benefits of glycosaminoglycans.
If you ever have any questions about issues, or ingredients, look them up in Dr Dray's channel by key words. She can educate you about skin health which is where the above came from. People will still have specific skin conditions like melasma, rosacea, acne, milia hyperpigmentation, etc that are legitimate skin concerns that can be treated and eliminated with the right knowledge and focus on certain inexpensive products. Dr Dray is an excellent resource for skin health. She's a board certified dermatologist. There is a very high chance she has made a video about any topic of concern you can think of by provides solutions, often referring to clinical studies. Just search her channel using key words of concern. She consistently explains the difference between sensitive skin needs vs other.

Also, I think it would be a smart idea to give you brand deals still, because of how honest and real youv been to your veiwers. Trust is the biggest foundation in any relationship. If brands belive they cant be trusted, they would be put off by you. But if they knew how honest you were, and it matched their honesty...your veiwers would sense that through a brand deal.
