I love that you got to 1.2 million+ subscribers and actually look like a real person in your videos! Minimal makeup, everyday hair, etc. So many TH-camrs look like they are in a magazine photo shoot for their videos. They are beautiful but it's not very relatable.
I just wish that the good sunscreens aren't too expensive or come in small containers! This is the only product in a routine that needs to be reapplied throughout the day! 😩💕
True! That’s what put’s most people off I reckon. Less sunscreen will last longer so saving on money. Prices need to go down abit, not too much just abit. It will surprise manufacturers how much profit they can still make.
@@SkintitaApril it doesn’t make sense does it? They want us to stay safe in the sun not to get skin cancer or premature aging, but they sell sunscreens at a high price! Like always profit over health!
@@softshallow7435 I was happy to know that most Korean sunscreens were reasonable priced. But then there have been issues lately regarding their spf claims.. 😩💕
I just read this morning that layering a chem SPF under a physical SPF (like in make-up) was a big no-no and did degrade sunscreen. I had to come back to you and this video - since you are always armed with actual studies. Seriously, SO much misinformation out there. What would we do without you, Dr. Dray? You are truly a gem.❤
i started applying sunscreen in the morning when i was 18. i started reapplying every two hours at 20. i am now 23 and i am still learning ! this channel is really clearing up a lot of questions that google was not helping me answer. thank you so much for your help ❤️❤️
Most damage to the skin done until age 18. That info I read at the Israeli medicine sites about skin sun damage. Israel was at the 2’nd place in the world of the skin cancer. Today it is at the 5th or 6th place.
I appreciate the constant sunscreen content - since staring using it daily I've noticed massive improvement in my rosacea & it's always good to hear older advice again and learn something new :)
This answered a question I had about layering sunscreens, applying it over a wet face, and applying different sunscreens throughout the day. Thank you so much. I love a ton of your videos, and this one is one of my favorites.
Thank you SO much for the clarification regarding layering sunscreens! I think you and Paula (from Paula's Choice) are the only two that said it is OK, everyone else is against it. However, it seems to work for me. Normally I will put on a light-weight Korean chemical sunscreen as my morning routine when I am at home. And a few hours later if I need to go outside, I will add a tinted mineral or hybrid sunscreen on top for added protection, especially against visible light. I don't usually wear makeup so the tint also gives a light coverage.
Sunscreen is the best kept skincare secret. Like I had NO idea that the suns rays harms collagen production, causes skin cancer, and speeds up aging!? How did I not know this till now!? That seems like very important knowledge!? I only ever used sunscreen when I was going to the beach or the lake!
Absolutely loooooove Dr. Dray! No nonsense, no agenda. Just straight talking, useful advice that we all need to know. Everything you say is so clear and straightforward. You make the complex simple! Love how thorough you are and realistic about things. It’s just a breath of fresh air! Thank you for all you do 🙏
I find that the perfect combo is chemical sunscreen + tinted sunscreen. Chemical sunscreens have elegant formulation most of the time, so it does not pill under makeup. Tinted sunscreen is a color correcting makeup and a sunscreen in one. You will get double leyers of SPF and you will have an even skin tone.
I always get ready in the AM with Dray speaking truths ! I love getting ready and learning 🥰 Thank you Dr. Dray! I hope you have a splendid day today 😘
The Black Girl Sunscreen is the only sunscreen I've ever used that is hydrating/moisturizing enough for me to use without a separate moisturizer. It's incredible!
@@julia-ex7im I use it on my body more now (or face if I need something water resistant) and then Korean sunscreens for my face. But it’s the BGS kids spf 50
Thanks for creating this video. Layering sunscreen, especially layering with moisturizer has been a concern of mine for several months. The video on SPF labels from the day before addressed a concern of mine for a number of years. These have been a pair of really helpful videos for me.
I thought I had some kind of personal problem with my skin because products would roll , ball up & peel off my face. I figured it was just a Hashimoto's thing. I feel like a lady again with some confidence restored. Thank you so much
@@Gaming123-z4g At 2:37 Dr Dray says to wait for the first sunscreen to dry before applying the second as it is more likely to pill when applied on damp sunscreen. Not sure if that applies to your situation though, but worth a go
Oooo I can’t wait for this!! I love the shade of their Sunforgettable SPF (really hard to find tinted sunscreens that match a pale pink complexion), but it’s VERY shiny for my taste. Hoping this matte version could be the perfect fit!
I always start off with a thick layer of LRP UVMune untined sunscreen all over my face and neck. After letting that dry I like to press in the Colorscience FaceShield Mineral Sunscreen in Tan on my dark marks with a beauty blender. I don’t like Tinted sunscreens all over my face because of the smile lines and just the overall look of it, so I just put it over my dark marks which need extra protection (especially from Visible Light). I like the fact that the Tinted Mineral Sunscreen acts as a concealer.
You have thought me so much this past year of watching you. You have turned this tanning bed laying, heavy layers of makeup wearing girls life around! I now can’t go anywhere without my sunscreen and I opt for spray tans only now although I am also truly embracing my lighter natural color thanks to you! I invested in my skin care (products of your recommendations) and you have saved me a lot of time and money from potentially getting sucked into marketing. Thank you so much, I can never thank you enough for how you have helped me and saved my skin.
hiiii... do you layer two different brand of sunscreens tho?? i actually, want to do this so much but im still too scared haha. just asking btw 😊 thankyou in advancE hehe
Hi Dr Dray! Since watching you videos I have stopped wearing makeup daily (and I wore it every day for 60 years). Now I focus on sun screen and a retinoids at night. My skin has never looked better. Thank you! Oh and on the rare occasion that I do wear makeup, it goes on flawlessly.
Yes..I use chemical spf..n wait for 5min...after that my Aussie gold tinted mineral spf for the last step as my foundation❤🙏thank you Dr Dray😍from Indonesia
I’m so glad you addressed this. I’ve been using moisturizer underneath my Differin sunscreen, hoping I wasn’t causing the sunscreen to be less effective (although I have always waited for it to absorb before putting the sunscreen on). I’ve never had pilling or any other issues, which I was afraid of experiencing before I actually tried it. Thank you, Dr. Dray. You’ve really helped me and my skin the past few years. 💕
Good afternoon Dr. Dray. I was wondering perhaps if you could please do a video on reputable UPF 50+ clothing brands you’d recommend & why? Thanks for all you do 💙
Hi Dr. Dray! If you haven't already thought of this, I wish you would consider coming out with a skin care line and a range of sunscreens!! People trust you and I guarantee the products would sell like wildfire.
Great and informative as always... Wanted to say that I have been binging on some of your older videos where you explain the pathophysiology of conditions like acne, cancer, etc., and it's absolutely brilliant. It' s like a free academic lecture. Tons of respect to you as a scientist. Also, can't wait till you review the new cerave hyaluronic acid serum!
Super helpful! I’ve been following a proper skincare routine now for about 3 weeks and my skin feels great! I always make sure to apply/reapply sunscreen. I agree with some of the other comments that it can get expensive, but I don’t wear makeup. I am, however, considering investing in a CC cream soon.
I asked this question on your IG. Thank you for your answer! I have been reapplying sunscreen since I started following you (2+years ago) my skin is so much better and small wrinkles around my eyes are gone!!
I enjoy Blue Lizard australian products. Especially the zinc oxide stick for sensitive skin. It was recommended by my sister’s oncologist for good sun protection during chemo. Not terribly pricey.
Thank you Dr Dray . I feel like I’m in a university class lecture with such a reliable science based information. By the way, I like this hair style on you . So cute
Its amazing how caring she is in all aspects of her life and how generous she is to do these daily videos to help educate us. Happy Friday, Uncle Charlie! I hope you have an awesome weekend!! 😊
I just received my delivery of Ultra Violette sunscreens! They have a matte mineral one, and a few chemical ones including a moisturiser, serum and a fragrance-free option. Layers beautifully with skincare and makeup with minimal peeling, no white cast, but you definitely feel you've got sun protection. Also, it's Australian, so you bet the SPF is legit. Would love to see a few non-Australians review Ultra Violette. :)
For me I found that generally it's better to apply a chemical sunscreen before a mineral or combo sunscreen. I've been applying Bubchen's spf50 sunlotion and then Bioderma's spf100 Photoderm max and it's served me pretty well.
I just bought a IT cosmetics concealer with spf 50 and a neutrogena mineral powder with spf 50 both for under $30 this is good for those gals/guys who wanna wear makeup and have spf on!
Dr. Dray you are the best! just want to say I love you and thank you for everything you do! The fact that I just moved to Austin,TX coming from the east coast I’m honored❤️. I hope to meet you one day Dr. Dray! 🤞🏼
Hi Dr. Dray! A few vids back, you solicited beat the heat advice. :) I ordered something from Amazon called a “Neck Cooling Tube.” It’s like a gel ice pack that contours around your neck. Sharing is Caring! ❤️
ANESSA just came out with a cushion foundation sunscreen that makes it so easy to reapply. It`s called ANESSA All-in-one compact. The formula is moisturizing, but not greasy and reapplying is easy. Plus it provides good skin coverage.
That sounds like a good idea. Lately I've been coveting thicker eyebrows, but instead I've just been penciling them in. But when I reapply sunscreen I rub my eyebrow makeup right off and have to draw them back on. It's a hassle. 😩
Would love that too. Kerastase do a few but the Genesis anti-fall scalp serum especially. Gets great reviews and I'm tempted but it's €45 where I live XD
I apply an spf 50 chemical sunscreen and then an spf 15 bb cream with mineral filters on top of it. Also often foregoing moisturizer and relying on sunscreen for moisturization. Happy to hear I'm doing it right!
I've tried a lot of mineral-only sunscreens and I can't imagine being able to apply a chemical sunscreen on top of one without turning the mineral sunscreen into a goopy, streaky mess. Applying a liquid chemical sunscreen first and then applying a mineral one over that is a great idea, though.
Love Dr Dray's advice. I struggle with tinted spfs because they stain my clothes when I use on my neck. And finding a mineral spf with zero white cast that is not drying is a challenge as well. The struggle continues to find the right one. I've tried sooooo many...such a waste of $!
Very informative! Thanks for this! I am finally using a decent sunscreen thanks to your videos! A clear chemical sunscreen for whatever reason seems to work better than a zinc sunscreen with my super sensitive skin. I am grateful for the product recommendations.
You are the best dermatologist in the world. You taught me so much about my eczema skin. I can now use tretinoin without irritation. Plus, I don't wear makeup either and my skin is so much better without it.
You have been in my life for a mere month, Dr Dray, but I have binged your videos and love your research/science backed content. Oh - and the common sense tips… you are fantastic! Just to share: I am a mineral sunscreen girl for my face, and I have not found the perfect one product. So what do I do? I mix my white cast fav with a darker tint than I need. I mix them both at the same time. I mix them like a painter mixes their paints… results in the perfect tint and perfect coverage. Also - I do this with mineral and chemical for my décolleté…. Thanks for the great video!
@@DrDrayzday hello Dr Dray. I’m a newer subscriber and you have sold me on using facial sunscreen, among other things. I have a problem with a lot of facial sweating. Can you recommend a facial sunscreen that wouldn’t make me sweat more? Perhaps a tinted sunscreen that I can use instead of make up foundation? Thank you in advance. 🤞🏻you can help me.
This is definitely of my favorite videos, so much great information… I’m sharing it with everyone I can. Need to mention how gorgeous the color of your shirt is and looks fabulous on your skin tone.
I feel like most face products these days have hyaluronic acid in them. So what I do is apply my hyaluronic acid toner right after washing my face while damp. 3 mins. then my serums with 3 mis in-between both, which have the hyaluronic acid. Then I don't use moisturizer in the morning because like you said, it's going to do the moisturizing. At night I use my straits that has all the germicides and fatty stuff in it. I kind of overkill it on the sunblock. I use only mineral. I do the LaRoche pose 50spf titanium dioxide tinted, and the zinc screen spf 40 from Sooper Goop, 3 mins, then my spf 40 soopergoop matte screen primer, 3 mins, then I use my IT cosmetics spf 50 foundation, then my colorscience blush spf 50 and then my Soopergoop spf 40 powder on top of all of that! But now that I know you can mix chemical and mineral I might have to give that a try. I spend most my day in a windowless room with all that sunblock on. But I'm neurotic about sunblock. I don't go places without it. People tease me about it all the time. Wear my big huge Australian hat when I'm out in the sun with spf sunglasses whenever I'm driving and stuff. LOL. I'd like to say that it's because I don't want to get skin cancer but it's because I'm vain and don't want wrinkles. Also, she's right, go eat breakfast or something. In between all my 3 min gaps I go and do other things like get dressed. Pack my lunch. Curl my hair. Whatever. I'm also an efficiency expert. Like I have a routine down and there's no time wasted in the morning so I can get this all done in time. And yes, the pilling can be prevented if you read the ingredients. Everything I use has a silicone base. People have this issues with foundations and primers. You have to make sure you use water based with water based and silicone with silicone and oil with oil.
Wow Dr. Dray is a psychic...last night I Google “can I layer physical & chemical sunscreen” and Google said not to do it which I find doesn’t make sense. Thank you for this info, now I can confidently layers 👏👍❤️
it's only funny if u don't know the sweet feeling of taking shade after the sun is literally cooking you alive, i have no shame, only self preservation!!! 🏃♂️🏃♂️💨
I do umbrellas every day and I'm the only person I know that does it. A coworker tried it the other day with me with a really pretty umbrella and I couldn't get over how great it looked. She enjoyed the shade. Smart ideas spread and yes, I love the idea of beautiful modern parasols! We can bring it back!
This! I've been using 2 moisturizers and a sunscreen...I start with the CeraVe AM Moisturizer spf 30, followed by the Heliocare 360 AK fluid spf 100 (purchased from a European website. Most filtered sunscreen I could find) followed by the Drmtlgy tinted Moisturizer spf 46 (thanks Dr Dray for this recommendation!) I follow up with the Make up forever HD pressed powder (tapping lightly over skin). It may sound like a lot but I have extremely fair skin so like to take every precaution. I layer the Heliocare and baby bum mineral spf 50 on the rest of my body. Unless it's boiling hot, I wear a zip up hoodie. Always wear sunglasses and sometimes a hat.
I love how your videos are so detailed and jam-packed with great information. I always learn so much from you, I can watch any video knowing that I won't be disappointed. My skin has totally changed since I started following your channel years ago. Your vlogs make me so happy as well. Also, is it just me or are you looking prettier and prettier every day? Gorgeous glow! ⭐⭐⭐
Three questions plz dr dray for future videos: 1) what are some “actives” for eczema. I see sa, bpo for acne; tret for anti aging, and licorice root, kojic acid, etc for hyper pigmentation. What is the most useful “active” ingredients for eczema and itch? What about dishydrotic eczema on hands? 2) please make a video on what the scientific literature says about the efficacy of allergy shots/immunotherapy for those with chronic, moderate to severe eczema 3) what is Porokeratosis and how to treat if in the bottom of the foot ❤️ I sincerely appreciate it
@@db-gb5xi ive seen them all. My question was specifically regarding active ingredients that one should look for when purchasing products if we have eczema. The only ones I’m aware of is colloidal oatmeal, bleach, and probably niacinimide and panthenol. The numbing ingredient too in cerave itch relief is probably one too. Maybe ceramides, but not necessary? Anything additional that I’m missing dr dray? Also, actinic keratosis is not the same as Porokeratosis, as far as I know. Already saw the video on dishydrotic eczema-my question is more specific than her video.
@@21972012145525 I see. I don't know if it would help, but check out a video from Dr Simi Adedeji in the UK. She has a good video on eczema. I'd check out Dr. Bailey Skin Care as well especially her blog. Though, she has a line of products so watch out for any hard sell on those.
Happy Friday, Dr Dray! Thank you soooo much for explaining how to layer sunscreen. I was a little confused about this and this video was very helpful. I hope you, your sweet momma and little Tybee have a fabulous weekend!! 💖
I like using sunscreen spray under UPF clothing since it's less oily most of the time and the UPF clothing does most of the protection. The spray is just a little extra insurance on super sunny hot long days outdoors under the clothes.
I have been layering different brand sunscreens and SPFs on my face and body WITHOUT knowing if this method worked on not. I figured layering different sunscreens is better than not reapplying sunscreens. Thank you Dr. Dray for shedding light on this topic and putting my mind at ease. Since discovering you two months ago, I have gone from NO sunscreen to using sunscreens on my face and body, AND reapplying at least three times a day. Because of all the benefits of using sunscreens ,I have even gotten used to the "shine" and "stickiness", something I really detested, but now know is a MUST. Your shopping vlogs have shown me that I don't have to break the bank to keep purchasing sunscreens and to keep up the sunscreen habit for the rest of my life. I cannot get enough of all you skin care TH-cam episodes. You are literally saving lives and life-altering disfigurement, one sunscreen and skin care episode at a time. THANK YOU !! 😎💖
I love that you got to 1.2 million+ subscribers and actually look like a real person in your videos! Minimal makeup, everyday hair, etc. So many TH-camrs look like they are in a magazine photo shoot for their videos. They are beautiful but it's not very relatable.

For me I found that generally it's better to apply a chemical sunscreen before a mineral or combo sunscreen. I've been applying Bubchen's spf50 sunlotion and then Bioderma's spf100 Photoderm max and it's served me pretty well.
I just bought a IT cosmetics concealer with spf 50 and a neutrogena mineral powder with spf 50 both for under $30 this is good for those gals/guys who wanna wear makeup and have spf on!
Dr. Dray you are the best! just want to say I love you and thank you for everything you do! The fact that I just moved to Austin,TX coming from the east coast I’m honored❤️. I hope to meet you one day Dr. Dray! 🤞🏼
Loving the back to back uploads ❤️
Hi Dr. Dray! A few vids back, you solicited beat the heat advice. :) I ordered something from Amazon called a “Neck Cooling Tube.” It’s like a gel ice pack that contours around your neck. Sharing is Caring! ❤️
💙💙👍🏼
You just saved me my money for my moisturizer and sunscreen 😍 Arigatou 🇯🇵 Love from Japan.
ANESSA just came out with a cushion foundation sunscreen that makes it so easy to reapply. It`s called ANESSA All-in-one compact. The formula is moisturizing, but not greasy and reapplying is easy. Plus it provides good skin coverage.
Dr Dray can you do a video about "hair growth serums"? Are they worth the money at all? I see ads for this stuff everywhere!
👍🏼
That sounds like a good idea. Lately I've been coveting thicker eyebrows, but instead I've just been penciling them in. But when I reapply sunscreen I rub my eyebrow makeup right off and have to draw them back on. It's a hassle. 😩
@@usernameisunavailable8270 same. I've been messing around back and forth with waterproof brow pencils and brow gels
Yes please! I've been meaning to try the one from the Ordinary but it would be great to hear a dermatologist's opinion first.
Would love that too. Kerastase do a few but the Genesis anti-fall scalp serum especially. Gets great reviews and I'm tempted but it's €45 where I live XD
I apply an spf 50 chemical sunscreen and then an spf 15 bb cream with mineral filters on top of it. Also often foregoing moisturizer and relying on sunscreen for moisturization. Happy to hear I'm doing it right!
I've tried a lot of mineral-only sunscreens and I can't imagine being able to apply a chemical sunscreen on top of one without turning the mineral sunscreen into a goopy, streaky mess. Applying a liquid chemical sunscreen first and then applying a mineral one over that is a great idea, though.
I heard it was a bad idea to mix diff sunscreen brands 😞 not sure what’s truth anymore
You are the reason why I wear and reapply spf. Now I have 3 spfs50+ and tomorrow my mineral sunblock will arrive🙂. Thank you.
Love Dr Dray's advice. I struggle with tinted spfs because they stain my clothes when I use on my neck. And finding a mineral spf with zero white cast that is not drying is a challenge as well. The struggle continues to find the right one. I've tried sooooo many...such a waste of $!
Use chemical
@@filterhead22 chemical isn’t great for those with sensitive skin
Very informative! Thanks for this! I am finally using a decent sunscreen thanks to your videos! A clear chemical sunscreen for whatever reason seems to work better than a zinc sunscreen with my super sensitive skin. I am grateful for the product recommendations.
What clear chemical sunscreen do you like?
You are just glowing in this video!!
Omg... I was about to start searching for layering different sunscreens and you just released this one ❤️❤️🥰 thank you so much
You are the best dermatologist in the world. You taught me so much about my eczema skin. I can now use tretinoin without irritation. Plus, I don't wear makeup either and my skin is so much better without it.
You have been in my life for a mere month, Dr Dray, but I have binged your videos and love your research/science backed content. Oh - and the common sense tips… you are fantastic!
Just to share: I am a mineral sunscreen girl for my face, and I have not found the perfect one product. So what do I do? I mix my white cast fav with a darker tint than I need. I mix them both at the same time. I mix them like a painter mixes their paints… results in the perfect tint and perfect coverage.
Also - I do this with mineral and chemical for my décolleté….
Thanks for the great video!
Your skin looks amazing! You get prettier with every video
I am literally layering sunscreen as I open this video to watch! Happy Friday dr dray and peeps ❤️ 🥳☕🥤
Yay! Happy Friday 💙💙
Happy Friday Reed 😊
@@DrDrayzday hello Dr Dray. I’m a newer subscriber and you have sold me on using facial sunscreen, among other things. I have a problem with a lot of facial sweating. Can you recommend a facial sunscreen that wouldn’t make me sweat more? Perhaps a tinted sunscreen that I can use instead of make up foundation? Thank you in advance. 🤞🏻you can help me.
You are my go-to when it comes to learning about sunscreen!
I was literally asking myself this question today after I went out and bought some sunscreen because you scolded me to do so🤣🤣
Omg this was super informative Dr. DRAY you answered all of my questions about layering. Boy was I misinformed, thank u somuch.😮
This is definitely of my favorite videos, so much great information… I’m sharing it with everyone I can. Need to mention how gorgeous the color of your shirt is and looks fabulous on your skin tone.
I feel like most face products these days have hyaluronic acid in them. So what I do is apply my hyaluronic acid toner right after washing my face while damp. 3 mins. then my serums with 3 mis in-between both, which have the hyaluronic acid. Then I don't use moisturizer in the morning because like you said, it's going to do the moisturizing. At night I use my straits that has all the germicides and fatty stuff in it. I kind of overkill it on the sunblock. I use only mineral. I do the LaRoche pose 50spf titanium dioxide tinted, and the zinc screen spf 40 from Sooper Goop, 3 mins, then my spf 40 soopergoop matte screen primer, 3 mins, then I use my IT cosmetics spf 50 foundation, then my colorscience blush spf 50 and then my Soopergoop spf 40 powder on top of all of that! But now that I know you can mix chemical and mineral I might have to give that a try. I spend most my day in a windowless room with all that sunblock on. But I'm neurotic about sunblock. I don't go places without it. People tease me about it all the time. Wear my big huge Australian hat when I'm out in the sun with spf sunglasses whenever I'm driving and stuff. LOL. I'd like to say that it's because I don't want to get skin cancer but it's because I'm vain and don't want wrinkles. Also, she's right, go eat breakfast or something. In between all my 3 min gaps I go and do other things like get dressed. Pack my lunch. Curl my hair. Whatever. I'm also an efficiency expert. Like I have a routine down and there's no time wasted in the morning so I can get this all done in time. And yes, the pilling can be prevented if you read the ingredients. Everything I use has a silicone base. People have this issues with foundations and primers. You have to make sure you use water based with water based and silicone with silicone and oil with oil.
DR DRAY IS THE BEST DERMATOLOGIST IN THE WORLD!!!!!
Thanks for all of this sunscreen information to ring in Melanoma awareness month!
Thanks for letting us know about how to layer Sunscreens!
I needed this video!! Thank you so much for educating us about what we can pair sunscreen with! I had so many sunscreen questions!
AYEEEE DR. DRAAAAY. BEEN A WHILE, GODDESS OF GLOW.
Happy Friday
Wow Dr. Dray is a psychic...last night I Google “can I layer physical & chemical sunscreen” and Google said not to do it which I find doesn’t make sense. Thank you for this info, now I can confidently layers 👏👍❤️
literally my favorite youtuber. ever. 💘💘💘
Thanks again for great info! Can you consider doing a video on specific spf clothing, hats, etc.
All the other fads come and go but great skincare advice is always in style xx
Could you please explain how mineral sunscreen that isn’t reapplied, can protect against sunburn but not against uv damage?🧐
I do wish they’d bring back “parasols”...umbrellas look so funny on a sunny, clear day!
I have a fancy sunscreen umbrella. I’m a dork.
I don't care if I look silly, my umbrella goes with me wherever I go
it's only funny if u don't know the sweet feeling of taking shade after the sun is literally cooking you alive, i have no shame, only self preservation!!! 🏃♂️🏃♂️💨
I do umbrellas every day and I'm the only person I know that does it. A coworker tried it the other day with me with a really pretty umbrella and I couldn't get over how great it looked. She enjoyed the shade. Smart ideas spread and yes, I love the idea of beautiful modern parasols! We can bring it back!
It sounds like you might need to start a new business? Bring parasols back…
This! I've been using 2 moisturizers and a sunscreen...I start with the CeraVe AM Moisturizer spf 30, followed by the Heliocare 360 AK fluid spf 100 (purchased from a European website. Most filtered sunscreen I could find) followed by the Drmtlgy tinted Moisturizer spf 46 (thanks Dr Dray for this recommendation!) I follow up with the Make up forever HD pressed powder (tapping lightly over skin). It may sound like a lot but I have extremely fair skin so like to take every precaution. I layer the Heliocare and baby bum mineral spf 50 on the rest of my body. Unless it's boiling hot, I wear a zip up hoodie. Always wear sunglasses and sometimes a hat.
I love how your videos are so detailed and jam-packed with great information. I always learn so much from you, I can watch any video knowing that I won't be disappointed. My skin has totally changed since I started following your channel years ago. Your vlogs make me so happy as well. Also, is it just me or are you looking prettier and prettier every day? Gorgeous glow! ⭐⭐⭐
Three questions plz dr dray for future videos:
1) what are some “actives” for eczema. I see sa, bpo for acne; tret for anti aging, and licorice root, kojic acid, etc for hyper pigmentation. What is the most useful “active” ingredients for eczema and itch? What about dishydrotic eczema on hands?
2) please make a video on what the scientific literature says about the efficacy of allergy shots/immunotherapy for those with chronic, moderate to severe eczema
3) what is Porokeratosis and how to treat if in the bottom of the foot
❤️ I sincerely appreciate it
She's got a lot of videos on eczema. There's one on Actinic keratosis as well as one on dyshidrotic eczema.
@@db-gb5xi ive seen them all. My question was specifically regarding active ingredients that one should look for when purchasing products if we have eczema. The only ones I’m aware of is colloidal oatmeal, bleach, and probably niacinimide and panthenol. The numbing ingredient too in cerave itch relief is probably one too. Maybe ceramides, but not necessary? Anything additional that I’m missing dr dray?
Also, actinic keratosis is not the same as Porokeratosis, as far as I know.
Already saw the video on dishydrotic eczema-my question is more specific than her video.
@@21972012145525 I see. I don't know if it would help, but check out a video from Dr Simi Adedeji in the UK. She has a good video on eczema. I'd check out Dr. Bailey Skin Care as well especially her blog. Though, she has a line of products so watch out for any hard sell on those.
I like to use a little bit of setting spray over my sunscreen before I start applying makeup
Dr Dray’s skin is perfection
Happy Friday, Dr Dray! Thank you soooo much for explaining how to layer sunscreen. I was a little confused about this and this video was very helpful. I hope you, your sweet momma and little Tybee have a fabulous weekend!! 💖
There is literally no way I could reapply the same recommended amount of sunscreen. My face would be a mess lol
Same 🤣
I like using sunscreen spray under UPF clothing since it's less oily most of the time and the UPF clothing does most of the protection. The spray is just a little extra insurance on super sunny hot long days outdoors under the clothes.
Yey! Sunscreen content. ❤️
I love watching Dr. Dray's new contents everyday. 😊❤️
I have been layering different brand sunscreens and SPFs on my face and body WITHOUT knowing if this method worked on not. I figured layering different sunscreens is better than not reapplying sunscreens.
Thank you Dr. Dray for shedding light on this topic and putting my mind at ease. Since discovering you two months ago, I have gone from NO sunscreen to using sunscreens on my face and body, AND reapplying at least three times a day. Because of all the benefits of using sunscreens ,I have even gotten used to the "shine" and "stickiness", something I really detested, but now know is a MUST.
Your shopping vlogs have shown me that I don't have to break the bank to keep purchasing sunscreens and to keep up the sunscreen habit for the rest of my life. I cannot get enough of all you skin care TH-cam episodes. You are literally saving lives and life-altering disfigurement, one sunscreen and skin care episode at a time. THANK YOU !! 😎💖
Yeah i used to do the same before knowing about it
Thanks Dr. Dray for answering my question about layering moisturizers and sunscreen. 😊
I never thought of the friction from blending makeup! It makes total sense how it could remove sunscreen.
I try to get spf in everything I use. I always feel like more is always better.
Once again- such good comprehensive advice.
