Do you use vitamin C? I have heard a lot about it but I think I avoided it because I also heard it shouldn't be used with many other good products/ingredients
This is a great video! I've rewatched 100times. I would love something similar to this video but also for someone battling melasma/hyperpigmentation and acne.
Really needed this. Would also love to see sunscreen recommendations for mature, acne prone skin. I've settled on the Elta Md Uv Elements tinted spf because it's water resistant (the others just sweat right off), doesn't irritate my skin, and looks OK under makeup. It's not perfect, though. I'm just tired of trying sunscreens that either break me out, irritate my skin, or don't work under makeup.
I like neutrogena’s cleanser/mask. It has 3.5% benzoyl peroxide and can be used as a cleanser or a mask. That along with adapalene has helped my skin so much.
Thank you so much for putting time and energy into this video. I found it so helpful. Just wanted to clarify with you, on the nights I am using my rx Tretinoin I use this alone? So using maybe a gentle cleanser and then the tret and moisturizer? Or is it alright to put tret on top of skin that has been prepped with the benz wash, and pep serum? I understand that on the nights I use a dark spot gel tx I am not putting tret on top! Just not sure about how to use it properly in the PM! Thank you so so much!
I LOVE your videos and content! I just wish more of your recommendations were Cruelty Free- or if you could provide an additional cruelty free option for those of us who won’t use skincare that isn’t , that would be AMAZING💗💗💗
Yes, please talk more about spironolactone. I think I’m experiencing hormonal acne now in my 40’s. I’ve never had acne issues besides a pimple or 2 popping up around that time of the month. But now, I’m getting them on my chin and around my mouth more frequently than just when my cycle comes. It’s not terrible, but can Spironolactone be prescribed for me or help?
Finding a nourishing night moisturizer that doesn't exacerbate acne is a challenge. The closest Ive got is with the Differin Restorative Night Moisturizer. My only gripes with it are the small bottle, high-ish price and that it doesnt have a lot of slip.
One question I’ve always had about spironolactone is if I don’t have kidney problems, can it still cause a high potassium in someone who eats a lot of high potassium foods? I’m a dietitian and I used to work in renal so I am very aware of all foods that are high in potassium and I eat a lot of them. Thanks! 😊
34 so over acne. In my teens never experienced it. Since I got the stupid COVID vaccine I got PMDD and extreme hormonal issues. I have been consistently healthy from 20s-early 30s. It’s crazy how most women are experiencing PCOS or PMDD.
I don't have problems with acne, thank God afcourse just my cheeks gets red when dry, cold or when I move fast but I don't think is nothing more like rosacea but no more dryness because now I take care of my self😊
Such great content! Thank you. Can you do a video on how to treat aging hands? I'm 57 and I'm typically told I look like I'm in my 40's but my hands give my age away! Thank you😊
Hello Dr.Jenny, I’m always thrilled to watch your videos every day-they’re incredibly informative and have really helped guide my skincare journey. Could you please let me know if it's safe to layer the La Roche-Posay Mela B3 Dark Spot Serum with a vitamin C serum?
Thanks for all the great recs and info! Is this the order of the products? So in the PM we can do Benzoyl peroxide cleanser Anti-aging serum Hyperpigmentation treatment Alternate between Chemical exfoliant and Adapalene ? Moisturizer
Hi Dr! Is this routine applicable for me as an oily skin individual with occasional acne? I struggle with clogged pores and oil with some flaky dry skin on my cheeks. I have no idea how to help myself incorporate a routine that caters to my specific needs. Appreciate your help on this. Thanks a lot!
Hello, Dr. Liu, I love your videos. They are very informative. Could you please do a skincare routine for teenagers…what types of active ingredients can they start using, and maybe some product recommendations? Thank you!!
Have used epiduo (adapalene and benzoyl peroxide); it has completely cleared up my acne! Should I continue, switch to retinol? Or level up to tretinoin? Love your videos and thank you for making skincare accessible! 😊
What would you recommend for post acne red/purple marks PIE? Im using retinol in the evening and vit C in the morning, but dont see much of improvement
Hi Dr. Liu ☺️👋 I use Neutrogena Skin Perfecting daily liquid exfoliant and Advanced Clinicals Retinol Niacinamide anti-aging face and body cream at night on my face but want to bump things up a notch. What peptides would work best with my already established routine and in what order should I apply them ?
If I use tretinoin most nights, is it okay to use the Vichy Normaderm S.O.S Acne Rescue Spot Corrector every morning? Can I also use a peptide serum on the same night as using a chemical exfoliant? Is it also okay to use a peptide serum and a peptide moisteriser, or is that too many peptides? Sorry for the multiple questions. I really appreciate your help. Thank you! :)
Hi, Dr. Liu I'm just catching up on some of your videos. Can I use my peptide & collagen cream as my daily moisturizer or do I need to use a separate regular moisturizer. Thank you
We are always told not to “pop” our hormonal cystic acne…. I literally get the ONE on my chin, don’t pop it cos it’s so deep within… I was told to put hydrocortisone to calm inflammation, the inflammation goes down but then I can still feel a small hardened bump underneath + hyperpigmentation (which I know takes a while to fad but … What is this bump? Surely it can’t be a scar because I didn’t touch it 😢
Should you use a morning moisturizer with vit c if you're already using a vit c serum? And for PM, can you use the Alastin Peptide serum with Tretinoin or the Drmtlgy cream?
I am 49 and suddenly experiencing closed comedones along my jaw line and lower cheeks. How use a glycolic acid 2 x week general cleansers and prescription tretinon. Any suggestions on how to manage this late stage acne. It’s been really annoying because I’ve been having great skin for the last 7 years and now back to being a teenager again 😢
Would you say the 50% Glycerin cleanser from Prequel is a good gentle option for mornings for adult hormonal acne? Also Paula has a new vitamin c with 25% THD. Is this acne safe? Sometimes vit c can irritate me
Hi Dr Liu, I like to know if it’s good to combine the centella cleanser or serum together with Benzoyl Peroxide? Thank you and I love the way you discuss the ingredients more power to your channel. 🤍
Thank you the succint sharing. Can you share which tinted spf you are using? I am as fair as you and can't find one that doesn't look like oompa loompa😂
Really confused when you said retinol doesn’t help with acne .. I have never heard that before. I’ve heard quite the opposite actually. Can someone explain why she said this??
I believe she said that because the clinical data shows that prescription strength retinoids are really are the most effective for acne, and over the counter products are not effective (this is especially true for hormonal and severe acne). Whereas there have been clinical studies that show over the counter retinoids can be just as effective as tretinoin over a long period of time for aging purposes. However, I know that some people share anecdotal experiences where retinol has been helpful for their mild acne.
It may help with acne marks but bc it’s not as strong as retinoic acid, it’s not as effective and also there’s very few of any studies looking at retinol for treating acne
You’re located in Minneapolis correct? Can I set up an appointment send me your email or contact, I’m moving up there today and need a Derm, thank you.
Wow... 10 minutes into the video, and it looks like a promo for CerVe products. There should be other effective drugstore products that worth the mention, right, Dr Liu?
Hi Dr Liu, I like to know if it’s good to combine the centella cleanser or serum together with Benzoyl Peroxide? Thank you and I love the way you discuss the ingredients more power to your channel. 🤍
I would love a video about spirolactone
Will do
Hi! You did not mention Azelaic acid but it has been the most and only effective ingredient to fight my acne on my very sensitive skin.
Do you use vitamin C? I have heard a lot about it but I think I avoided it because I also heard it shouldn't be used with many other good products/ingredients
This is such an awesome video targeting acne anti aging

Reequil dry touch sunscreen works great for me
I like neutrogena’s cleanser/mask. It has 3.5% benzoyl peroxide and can be used as a cleanser or a mask. That along with adapalene has helped my skin so much.
I use to use that one tio

Tons of great information! Thank you

Alternate between Chemical exfoliant and Adapalene ?
Moisturizer
Would love a video on spironolactone and would love a review on CeraVe’s best moisturizers for acne prone dry skin with winter coming fast!

Have used epiduo (adapalene and benzoyl peroxide); it has completely cleared up my acne! Should I continue, switch to retinol? Or level up to tretinoin? Love your videos and thank you for making skincare accessible! 😊
If you found your holy grail, I wouldn't switch. Use what works for you, only change if you need to.
Thank you for this. :) ❤

What about facial hair growth post prescription retinol?
laser hair removal
It’s not been shown to cause that
Great video. Thank you
Please recommend another option instead of the Adapalene. I cannot buy it in my country.
Tretinoin is the other option she mentioned.
Should you use a morning moisturizer with vit c if you're already using a vit c serum?

Omg, your skin is perfect 😅❤
