The butt pastes doesn't help used alone/ by itself. It has to be used in combination with first applying a good moisterizer of choise ; - then applying the zinc oxyde cream as a final top layer. As the zinc oxyde product I recommend Weleda's "White Mallow Baby Nappy Change Cream". It's softer and melts better into the skin.
@@いするぎみお , exactly! I recommend Weleda "White Mallow Face Cream" or Weleda "Almond Face Cream" or "Almond Face Lotion" as first layer of moisterizer. Let it sink into the skin. Then apply the "White Mallow Nappy Change Cream". Apply all this 1-2 hours before bedtime so it can be absorbed and benefit your skin overnight. All these moisterizers are for very sensitive or sentizised skin, and of course dry skin. (The White Mallow is Weleda's baby skincare btw) Any moisterizer with hyeralonic acid should be avoided. That's why these Weleda skin products are perfect.
@@saram3156, if you have oily skin you might possibly don't need it, I'm a little uncertain about it. I do belive a light moisterizer first is better even for a normal or balanced skin. A zinc oxyde cream is very good for a damaged or disturbed skin barrier, a condition which always causes dry skin. But by all means, it's probably no problem to use the Weleda White Mallow zinc oxyde cream alone. The result will instantly be visible the next morning. If your skin is not silky soft and looks dry, then you should add a moisterizer of choise first next time. (I recommend everyone to avoid hyeralonic acid though as it soaks moisture out of your deepest skin layers)
I actually mixed some rash cream into my moisturizer to just use every day - not enough to make me look white but just enough to boost the occlusive properties and soothe my skin. It’s never looked better!
Yeahh I use rash cream containing zinc oxide and its works like magic✨️ rather than buying something "barrier cream" its basically the same stuff but overprice
@@citlalliyepez5379 I also have sensitive combination! I use Laroche-Posay Dermallergo line! But if you’re really sensitive sometimes it makes my skin sting, whatever plant actives are in there. On a truly bad day, I’m skipping moisturizer entirely and just using a simple oil like jojoba or argan.
I saw your face basting video and bought the bum cream. I use it in addition to cerave and adapalene on wet skin as a third layer and its cleared my acne in a week. Ive been struggling with active breakouts for over a year and this is the only thing that helped. Thank you ♡.
@carleymorris4595 tbh I use it every night since I have breakouts (from picking at my skin due to stress) I use it as a spot treatment after my nightly skincare because I don't love the texture all over my face at night. I feel like it's also helping w my fresh scars and larger pores. The brand I use is Boudreaux's Butt Paste but I'm sure any brand would work. Also I just started this very recently this is just my fresh experience not real advice or recommendations lol I just see it working every day
I've used this for years! But it works best if you properly moisture the skin first. So layer serums and hydrators first, maybe niaciamide, maybe even something like Cicaplast and only in the end, a little bit of bum paste. The result is a calm, clear, beautiful skin. 👌🏻
@Lincorn1 yeah, the thick and sticky one. It's only the last layer (mine are snail essence, Ordinary niaciamide, Ordinary peptide serum, Byoma hydrating serum, Cicaplast cream and on top of that a thin layer of the bum paste). The bum paste just protects the whole set and adds some zinc to the mix.
I came and searched for this video. I used an active after a beach trip (used a ton of sunscreen but it's florida and I had not been in the sun since October). My face has been so sensitive ever since and dry. I was organizing under my sink and found some zinc oxide. Put it on and kept it on for hours. When doing my makeup this morning my skin felt good for the first time in over a week. Thank you!!
Did this today. Started a skin regime other than just Ponds recently based on your info. Went to the farmers market today and - despite practically *painting* myself in sunscreen - my vampire pale skin still got too much sun and I’ve been uncomfortable all day. So I skipped my actives tonight, moisturized like crazy, and caked on the zinc. This was the first time my face has felt ok since I got home. 10/10 would recommend.
I have been doing this because of your videos and my skin has never looked better! I actually use the sheer zinc by Triple Paste & I love it. I can apply it anytime I need it because it’s clear when rubbed in. 🥰💚🎉
Hey- been all over hunting for sheer zinc, couldn't find it. So glad to have seen your comment, I'll get on Amazon again, but question- does it help u with acne?& do i need to put on moisturizer first?
I had a terrible allergic reaction to a waxing product. My face was red and inflamed like the worst cystic acne you’ve ever seen. The only thing that worked to calm my skin was Desitin.
Yess I started using triple paste on my non retinoid nights and it immediately got rid of a lot of my irritation, not completely since I just started but it at least soothed the itching.. Vaseline used to do the same but it made my face break out too much, this has been way better so far 🎉
I like supersoft bleach or peroxide-proof Walmart microfiber pillowcases. I use 10% peroxide cream and sunless tanning cream and it doesn't bleach or stain pillowcases. I
People, clue in… I just use the MINERAL SUNSCREEN! I’ve been using my sunscreen as my moisturizer for at least a year now & what a difference! $10 mineral sunscreen spf 40 from Trader Joe’s is probably the best one I’ve used so far, even better than the $80 sunscreen I used to buy!!
The zinc oxide I use as a nurse isn't just zinc oxide, it's also calamine and other ingredients (calmoseptine). It's super thick and sticky and hard to fully remove
Do you recommend this for more tropical weather locations? Is it too much for someone living in the Caribbean or in Florida during the summer? I ask because these are heavy creams and I live in a hot and humid environment. Would enjoy skincare recommendations for my weather
I've been using sudocrem, which is basically a Triple Paste alternative available in the US... And I just love it. I love that it works and that's is so cheap. A tub of 250 grams is 8 bucks and it lasts me a long time. Love it when I find products like this.
I have been using baby butt cream in my face the last I think week. My skin is soo healed. I have arthritis, so inflammation, and with the zinc oxide cream I dont get flushes so often. (my skin is toooo sensitive)
I've been doing this for a year now after regular slugging wasn't doing it. Stumbled upon zinc oxide and I use Aquation now. I love it! I should start sharing what I discover lol
So, ummm...I know this sounds weird...my dad is an experimental physicist...and his research actually requires a lot of ZnO...so his lab has a lot of it...could I just take the commercial powder of ZnO and put it in vaseline and then put it on my face? Wow...I sound stupid...but yeah, this is a genuine question.
So it’s not normal zink cream, right? Because I can’t find a petrolatum based cream with zinc. I am from Germany, so we might simply not have a formula like that. Or am I misunderstanding something? Update: didn't work the way I hoped it would. I think the petrolatum/vaseline may be necessary to lock in the moisture. Too bad
Ich habe einfach eine Zinkhaltige Baby Wundcreme benutzt und meine Haut fühlte sich am nächsten Morgen richtig weich an. Sie benutzt auch Triple Paste was einfach Wundcreme ist

Ugh I need to go buy some. This winter has been brutal for my skin. I've had to stop all actives multiple times. My usual recovery routine works but not as fast as I'd like since i need those actives to maintain clear skin 😭
Holy omg I thought this whole time that I was taking it as easy as possible on my skin by slugging in my tretinoin with a petrolatum based product, but now you tell me that's actually for mega veterans?!? That makes SO much more sense. THANK YOU!!! I couldn't figure out why I had such a rough time adjusting to retinol, but I get it now!
Hello. Thank you for sharing. I have a question .... Is it really important that it is Vaseline based? Here in Europe I can't find Triple Paste, but I found one from Aveeno for baby's bottoms with oatmeal and zinc oxide, but the base is liquid paraffin. Could it be of use? Or should I not use it? I wish you could mention more international products. Thank you 🙏🙏🙏
I just started using the "Mustela 1 2 3" and I was wondering the same (water based but very oily). I really like the ingredient list and I wonder if you really need an occlusive when a cream is already so oily lol. I think it could even make a rosacea worse.
Hi, used low dose benzoyl peroxide once and think it wrecked my skin barrier. Very dry, flaky, reptile texture. Retaining little moisture. Purchased triple paste. Is that good to use to heal that?
I burned my neck on skin care (probably on misuse of retinol). I tried all sorts of soothing creams to heal and the only thing that worked was the triple paste
Yes you can use Sudocrem! She mentions it in another of her videos. The only thing is, it has fragrance so if you're sensitive to that I would avoid it but if not it works very well.
Hey Dr idris, i don’t know where to put my question under, so I take this short as an opportunity.. I want to know if I can use a vitamin c serum twice a day? I work in a daycare for children under the age of three, and after work I almost always feel the need to wash/ clean my face (due to the tiny hands in my face all day long, snot, saliva etc) .. So when I cleaned my face in the afternoon (with a cleanser ) can I just follow my ‚morning routine‘? -cleans, toner, vitamin c, sunscreen? Thank you so much for an answer in advance and I hope you understand all I wrote. Kind regards from Germany 😊
I can't use zinc oxide even in a sunscreen, it dries my skin out and can even cause rough spots and increase inflammation (red itchy dry spots). I keep trying to find a sunscreen that feels good to wear, is 30+, without zinc oxide. Everything feels like I'm wearing a mask and I just want to claw it off. Are there any non-mineral 30+ SPF moisturizer for aging skin that feel good on the skin, not heavy that don't break the bank?
I can’t use petrolatum, so I have a barrier cream that contains shea butter and sunflower oil instead of it. It probably isn’t as effective, but it helps my sensitive, dry, and aged skin.
Can I just use it liberally somedays? Like I didn’t go outside and slept half the day so put on a light moisturizer and this. Can I casually reapply in middle of night? Love this stuff. Best hack ever; but am I doing somethings incorrect? Can it kinda just be used on its own?
Would this work for acne prone skin? That’s what I use my tretinoin for and it’s always a struggle because my most acne prone areas also get the most peely. I do use it every night at this point though.
Zinc oxide is in my sunscreen and it helped prevent breakouts and keeps my skin from becoming too oily. Only thing is that it had a white cast but I usually wear foundation
I actually got the Desitin ointment in a tube,can't seem to find the big tub of cream, can I use the ointment for face basting instead of the cream?! Got no clue...can someone help me out here please!!..Thanks😊
Hi Doc,, I think I'm getting headaches the next day, whenever I apply tretinoin cream 0.025% on my face. I really want to continue using it for anti-aging benefits. Please guide me on how to prevent the headaches.
So freakin adorable when medicine-adjacent folks are scandalized that tons of meds/tools are perfect double duty workhorses. Knowing a little bit of medicine can be dangerous, always ask someone who actually knows i.e. an MD, just like that smart RN anointing their patient's bum.
Well at some point you will cleanse your skin. If you put it on before bed ( when most people use Retin A) then clears it in the morning routine. Then apply again at night.
I got myself a bum paste, but it doesn't include petrolatum, after water it just goes with zinc (also includes olive oil and rice starch). I don't know why but it seems as if petrolatum is nowhere in italian products 👀
I bought a zinc oxide cream that has olive oil, Shea butter and chamomile extract. It is 70% organic and has 20% zinc oxide. I don't think it's petrolatum based. Is this acceptable?
Ok please reply to this...can we apply this zinc paste under a mineral tinted sunscreen for extra protection?... please do answer....I have a trip coming up..😅
She recommended in a prior video Triple Paste and I immediately went to Walmart and grabbed a tub. It is wonderful! Look like Casper but I use it frequently on my neck and décolletage and it is working wonders.
I have a question, I have the DESITIN butt cream I bought for my daughter, can I use that on my face (my skin became very dry after I gave birth to my 1st baby) or there's a specific brand of butt cream that's safer? Thanks a lot ❤
42, combo skin with easily clogged pores. I tried this step 2-3 nights in a row during the coldest months and it made my skin drier and not so great Why?
If you have acne prone skin... Can you just mix zinc oxide powder with a gel moisturizer? I've read that zinc oxide powder is a respiratory irritant...

Oooooh, that’s explaining why zinc cream makes my skin looks like dry cookie
Is this true if your skin isn't dehydrated? Skin moisturizes itself from the inside out. Unless zinc paste is itself dehydrating?

Well at some point you will cleanse your skin. If you put it on before bed ( when most people use Retin A) then clears it in the morning routine. Then apply again at night.
Explained it like a boss 🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤
Thank you, Dr. Idriss! ❤
I got myself a bum paste, but it doesn't include petrolatum, after water it just goes with zinc (also includes olive oil and rice starch). I don't know why but it seems as if petrolatum is nowhere in italian products 👀
Okay, so how do you know that your skin barrier needs the paste?
Is cicaplast baume B5 of La Roche posay good for that??
I bought a zinc oxide cream that has olive oil, Shea butter and chamomile extract. It is 70% organic and has 20% zinc oxide. I don't think it's petrolatum based. Is this acceptable?
Ok please reply to this...can we apply this zinc paste under a mineral tinted sunscreen for extra protection?... please do answer....I have a trip coming up..😅
After you use barrier cream with zinc oxide do you use moisturizer over top, or just do the barrier cream?
What percentage is enough to see a difference?
She recommended in a prior video Triple Paste and I immediately went to Walmart and grabbed a tub. It is wonderful! Look like Casper but I use it frequently on my neck and décolletage and it is working wonders.
@@sue3032 and what % of zinc does it have?
@@parineetapehwal1183 12.8
@@parineetapehwal1183 I googled it. Triple Paste contains 12.8% zinc oxide.
@@parineetapehwal118312-13%
Would Sudocrem be suitable?
What's your night cream recommendation for retinol nights?
I’m wondering the same thing. I think maybe we cleanse, followed by moisturizer, then tretinoin, and last triple butt paste. 🤷🏻♀️
So when I wake up in the morning after basing, my face is still very white. Does this mean that the product isn’t absorbing into my skin?
How often should use and can use with moisturizer and serum as well.
I have a question, I have the DESITIN butt cream I bought for my daughter, can I use that on my face (my skin became very dry after I gave birth to my 1st baby) or there's a specific brand of butt cream that's safer? Thanks a lot ❤
Why notnjust use physical sunscreen? it contains zinc oxide too. And sunscreen does wonder on people's face. It's occlusive too.
42, combo skin with easily clogged pores. I tried this step 2-3 nights in a row during the coldest months and it made my skin drier and not so great
Why?
Do you wash your face in the morning after using Triple Paste at night?
How do you guys wash that off your face the next morning ? I usually wash my face with only water in the morning. Do I have to use facewash now ?
If you have acne prone skin... Can you just mix zinc oxide powder with a gel moisturizer? I've read that zinc oxide powder is a respiratory irritant...
OMG. THANK YOU. My ceramide cream is twisting my wallet every month. 😅
Can I use baby's diaper rash cream for this?
I also want to know this. Not sure because diaper rash cream may have added stuff in it that we can't use instead of straight zinc oxide ?
But if I do it in the morning, do I do it before or after sunscreen...?
Brb buying diaper rash cream
And comment about ghost casper got me 😂😂😂
