Drug store skin care...yes ma'am. I'm here for it! Ever since I found your channel years ago, you have saved me so much money and frustration too. Not to mention how much I've learned from you. You're awesome, Dr Dray! Thank you so much. Happy Friday!! Hope you, your sweet and little Tybee have a beautiful weekend. 💞
I love how you're wearing bright colors! So perfect for the summer, and you look lovely in Orange. That lipstick color also really suits you. Have a wonderful day!
Instead of Biotin, try drinking unflavored gelatin. It helps make my nails strong. I add the powder to my coffee and mix with a milk froather. Sprinkle with cinnamon and add your warm milk. Voila!
I am so glad that you address the biotin issue...I noticed it in many multi vitamin daily and I stopped taking it a few weeks before I had blood testing done. Also, you have saved me a lot of money, because I look at the ingredients on everything now and know what not to get. Thank you. 😊 Have a great weekend.
@@kimharrison8816 my TSH was 2.5 for > 30 yrs on levothyroxine then it shot up to >7. I was sleeping 10-12hrs, had dizziness and tired all the time, that’s when my blood work was tested. I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s .Increased levothyroxine and it went too low. I have another TSH after a dose change, coming up to make sure it’s normal. I won’t know how stopping biotin a week before had an affect until this blood test.
I used to use an epilator, but kept getting ingrown hairs. Because you remove it by the root, the hairs can start growing under your skin. So, exfoliating everyday would be what I had to do to prevent the bumps.
Happy Friday! I am also a big fan of Vaseline or its cousin, CeraVe Healing Ointment. I use it on cuts and scrapes, under my eyes, around my fingernails and on the heels of my feet. Great historical video yesterday!
I really appreciated the information on biotin. I don’t take it or use it but many of my friends and co workers do. I will be sending this video to them it’s crazy how many people don’t realize that supplements can interfere with prescriptions they take or medical tests that are ordered! 👏🏼
Dr. Dray, could you do a video on fabrics and how they effect skin? There’s a theory that certain skin fabrics (ie: polyester) can harm your skin or internally, and I’m curious to hear your take on it! You may have possibly posted a similar video before. Love your videos, appreciate hearing your knowledge on all these skin and health related topics 🫶
I bought the Cerave am moisturizer, and it has both mineral and chemical sunscreen in it - I'm sensitive to the chemical sunscreen, my eyes burned and teared for hours!
When I was a little girl my cheeks would get rough and chapped from the cold air and wind in the winter months. She would slather my face with Vaseline and it helped me so much! So interesting to learn years later the science behind petroleum jelly and why it works so well.
I have the European version of CeraVe's oil cleanser (bought on Care To Beauty) and I only purchased it within the past 5 weeks so I guess it was finally released to the US Market as it's now available on Amazon and the packaging has changed (the European version isn't all in English). Good to know!
Recently at Walgreens I've found their SPF 110 organic sunscreen that they call Age Protection For Face. I bought it to use on my body, especially my arms. I like it so much that I bought two more tubes to get me through the Summer. Tried it on my face, just to see how it is, and it's okay for face despite the light fragrance. (I prefer the LRP SPF 100 melt-in milk for face...it's great!! Works well under makeup, too) Y'all might want to try it!!
Dr. Dray: Just wanted to let you know. You turned me on to Skin Aqua sunscreen, but I've heard you say that you wish it came in a larger size. There is. The Skin Aqua Moisture Gel (white bottle) comes in a pump 240ml! ❤️
Thank you Dr Dray for another informative video. My skin care regime is simple - I've been using the Neutrogena Ultra gentle creamy fragrance cleanser and the Hydro Boost cleansing gel for years 🥰 My moisturizer & tinted sunscreen are fragrance free too. So many affordable skin care and cosmetics at the drugstore. Take care everyone 🏖
Possible topic for a future video: I just read how older adults should avoid the long term use of “anticholinergic” medications which have been shown in some studies to affect memory. Two of the common ones I had been using as a nightly sleep aid are Benadryl and Nyquil type meds. From what I can tell melatonin is not an anticholinergic med, at least it wasn’t shown on the list. Sleep is such an important part of the overall equation, and for those of us over 50 sleep can be elusive causing us to reach for sleep aids that may be negatively impacting our memory. Have you heard anything about these studies that you could share with us in an upcoming video?
There is a study or two showing that melatonin users had increased bone fractures, and there's a theoretical mechanism for how melatonin could cause reduced bone density. I use CBD (Swanson brand was the only one that worked for me) to sleep and it works amazingly well. The long term effects of CBD are probably unknown since research on cannabis was so limited but we do know not sleeping is terrible for a person's health so I figure it's worth the unknown risk.
Thank you this is very informative, I wish I watched this sooner. I tried to hop on that biotin bandwagon because i’ve been seeing it a lot lately and it just didn’t do any good for me. I had breakouts and stopped it!
Foam factor would not be great in a washing machine. I used my shampoo fails as body wash and hand soap. Conditioner becomes shave cream. I hate to just throw something away
A girl on Beauty Insider tested out the new Nair facial hair removal product, and she was left with a chemical burn on her face. It was mild, but still.
Good morning, Dr. Dray! How about a video on growth factors? Calecim is new on the scene, and Skinmedica has been around awhile. Are they worth the money? Aside from cost, what are the drawbacks?
My dad loved Gold Bond . He was a no nonsense kind of guy and didn’t like greasy lotions. I took the IT Works hair and nails supplement. My hair improved visibly in health and the hihh Th biotin didn’t cause acne breakouts like other biotins have.
I had bleeding gums everytime I brushed my teeth, no pain just some red when I spit. A doctor informed me that bleeding gums can be a sign of low vit c so I started to take a vit c supplement and my bleeding gums stopped immediately. Sometimes I get lazy and forget to take the supplement a few days and than it returns.
Please consider making a video about the role of biofilms in treatment-resistant skin conditions such as seborrheic dermatitis and other fungal infections.
It sure does not disappoint (I'm talking about the drugstore section) many wonderful deals to be pursued and claimed 😊❤. As a matter of fact baby diaper rash cream/barrier cream are a life saver not protecting the skin from incoming attacks that can worsen the already impaired skin but also they start creating a friendly healing environment for the recovery of the skin. After a sunburn if i remember correctly you suggested plain emmolient creams fragrance free of course right ? (It goes without saying that we have to avoid the sun and introducing new ingredients to that damaged area and we have to moisturize the area with a fragrance free moisturizer). Take care Doctor Andrea thanks for that wonderful video 😊❤.
I bought the cerave oil cleanser from a European website a year ago. It is ok as a regular cleanser, but I don’t think it works as a first step oil cleanse to remove makeup and sunscreen.
I haven’t seen the CeraVe cleansing oil in store either. I ordered it from Ulta. Went on RUclips to see what people thought of the product, and I guess it’s only new to the states. There were 1 year old reviews.
was just on vacation in italy and i stopped at a pharmacy and i took a picture of the new cerave cleansing oil cause i had never seen it before in the US,
The Walgreens Hydrating SPF 50 and 30 both are very fast absorbing and only slightly greasy even when applied liberally. The fragrance is way too strong unfortunately.
I take Nutrafol since my hair largely fell out when I got Covid. I cannot say how good the product is. My hair is growing at a rate of over 1 inch/month! I will stay on it until my hair grows back to its original thickness and length.
But if you don't wash off the Vaseline the next morning, it is blocking the best absorption of the actives you apply for the day. It's like putting on a thin layer of Vaseline as your first layer BEFORE you put on your skincare in the morning. No one would start their skincare layering in the morning with a first layer of Vaseline.
@@DrDrayzday That's good to know. Maybe my slugging is heavy handed bc my Vaseline is still prominent in the morning, but glad to know that overnight absorption is thorough so night layers don't constitute layer one in the morning. Thanks.
thanks for this one doctor, oh wow I always check out the skincare at Marshalls & TJ Maxx and just never trust buying the off brands. Idk, it's still kind of fun to see what's there and once in a while I'll find a known brand at a great price. I picked up on a few of your comments that will really help me make better choices next time!
Very interesting note about high doses of biotin. Thank you for pointing that out! What really surprises me is the prevalence of high dose biotin now being rather commonplace in energy drinks (especially ones like Celsius and I think Bang, etc.). Why would biotin be in a can of something with over 200mg of caffeine when its presence in blood could prevent detection of a heart attack? Sounds like a shady corporate malpractice waiting to happen (especially when each can of such brands are explicit that two per day maximum is the limit for safe use-think of any people in your lives who run on energy drinks and whether or not they’re already dangerously over-consuming these (or caffeinating in addition to one or two per day).
@DrDrayzday I like the goldbond lotion you show here. I keep a tube in my purse. It really helped back of my arms btw. And the retinol one is awesome. Mom and I are on our second tube! I use it on my hands, arms, chest and neck at night and prescribed tretinoin and the upup Vaseline intensive care dupe that’s $2.59 on my face and feet during these hot summer days. In winter I often used the vanicream in a tub with the pump and wondering if you know of a store brand dupe for that too? My budget thanks you! And my skin is doing just fine. Also I have the target and Walmart spf 50 sunscreen fragrance free and those are around $6-7. Thx for all your tips. Your videos are awesome. Informative and thank you for showing us how to read labels properly and understand ingredients. I have no fear in purchasing the products that I just listed above because of you and my budget and my skin thank very much.
Hi! I thoroughly enjoy watching you. I have a request for a video about skincare for the over 60 crowd. Like a good day and night routine for the face. And the best ways to exfoliate the body. I have been using the Dove exfoliatent and then Dove soap followed by Dove rich nourishment cream (not sure that is the exact name). I love Dove products. Been using the soap for around 45 years! I also use nivea cream after my shower. Getting back to my original question. Would you do a skincare video for us more mature ladies? Thank you and God bless!
Some guy next to us at the beach used spray sunscreen on himself and his daughter, and it just wafted right towards us in the ocean breeze. I had to turn away so as not the breathe it in. Yuk!
Can you please review the Walgreens sunscreens? I'm hoping for a replacement for the discontinued Walgreens sensitive skin sunscreen. I remember loving the texture
The reason that the store brand isn’t locked but the national brand is is because of Organized Retail Crime or ORC. These groups steal the items & then sell them back to the retailer. So essentially the retailer is buying back their own product. But they wouldn’t be tricked into buying back their store brand which is why it’s left unlocked.
I've been using the Walgreen's sunscreen SPF 50 for my body for 2 years and I love it! It absorbs quickly and is not greasy. I tried the SPF 70 but didn't care for it, it didn't seem to absorb as well and left a slightly sticky shine on my skin
Hello Dr. Dray! Another great video! I was wondering if you have tried the banana boat light as air body sunscreen 50 spf? It's one of my favorites, feels like a lotion, and dries down almost immediately. I compare other body sunscreens to this one.
Hi Dr. Dray! Love your videos thanks for sharing your expertise with us. Is there a chance that my tinted facial sunscreen is causing dark spots ? It seems despite using the Eucerin sunscreen I’m getting spots. Thank you 🙏🏼
If it's chemical and not broad spectrum (doesn't block uva and uvb) th, n you aren't protected from the anti aging rays (wrinkles and spots.). I use a tinted mineral sunscreen.
I’ve tried the store sells in blue and the real Selsun blue and the formula is different it even affects my hair differently like the store sells and blue dries the crap out of my hair regular Selsun blue like the name brand does not dry out my hair
Biotin causes my nails to grow like crazy and hair feels thicker, I guess my own body chemistry loves biotin. It works for me. But I tell dr I take if blood tests!
Hey Doc, Video Idea for your great reviews: The Palmer's product array; body and facial. I'm wondering whether Cocoa-butter really does what it claims (smooths scars and stretch marks) or is it an old wives' tale?
Your recommendation for salicylic acid body wash/mists for tv has CHANGED EVERYTHING FOR ME! I didn’t have success w the dandruff shampoos, but the salicylic acid has cleared my skin after 4 years
Hi my name is Michael and I’ve been watching your channel and I’ve recently been diagnosed with dermatitis on my face and I seen nizoral shampoo can help but I’m just wondering can you use a lotion on your face after you wash it off or is it better to wait for awhile I have cerave lotion
Thank you Dr Dray for another informative video. I didn’t see any differences on hair growth while taking Biotin. Interestingly I was found to have hypothyroidism which contributes on the hair loss 😅

I stop taking it a week before my thyroid blood test.

I truly adore these "Shop With Me" videos, Doc....Happy Friday!! 😃
Just wanted to say Dr Dray you look RADIANT and beautiful in this video!!
Orange is amazing on you! I look like the Great Pumpkin in orange lol.
I use a epilator for my hair removal. I don’t have to worry about chemicals or constantly buying stuff, works great but it does hurt on some areas
I used to use an epilator, but kept getting ingrown hairs. Because you remove it by the root, the hairs can start growing under your skin. So, exfoliating everyday would be what I had to do to prevent the bumps.

She has a whole dedicated video on biotin
The Gold Bond works wonders on the strawberry skin on my legs.
The only store that stocked the Cerave oil to foam cleanser was Ulta near me and they kept it in the back! I got it two days ago and really enjoy it!
Loving that color on you dr dray. I imagine peach would look nice on you too!
I love that you mentioned Dr. Eddie's Happy Cappy medicated shampoo! It's one of my favorites.
I found it drying when used in my body
I really love the soft make up look 😍 super pretty.
Love your eyebrows!.A little pencil goes a long way on you! 😊

Seen Cerave oil cleanser at Ulta
the Bondi Sands sunscreen is great! I much prefer that over the La Roche posey
Same! So much cheaper but if I didn’t know that I would still prefer Bondi Sands.
You are looking fantastic Dr Dray.
I had bleeding gums everytime I brushed my teeth, no pain just some red when I spit.

Sometimes I get lazy and forget to take the supplement a few days and than it returns.
Another awesome video Dr. Dray! IPL vs lasers, who knew?! Thanks again! 🤙

Toppik is pretty popular for thinning hair. But I found the fibers you sprinkle on to be itchy.
I bought the cerave oil cleanser from a European website a year ago. It is ok as a regular cleanser, but I don’t think it works as a first step oil cleanse to remove makeup and sunscreen.
The spray sunscreen is great for keeping in your golf bag for touch ups, or for someone in your group, that you see getting a little red.

I love this video, please do more. Stay cool from the heat and humidity
I’ve tried the store sells in blue and the real Selsun blue and the formula is different it even affects my hair differently like the store sells and blue dries the crap out of my hair regular Selsun blue like the name brand does not dry out my hair
Like the idea of the baby wash and shampoo for hand wash will try
I love bag balm
I’ve just used up their lotion. It was ok! Not bad
My son and I wear sunscreen daily because of your informative content. Any thoughts on Allie sunscreen blush?
Biotin causes my nails to grow like crazy and hair feels thicker, I guess my own body chemistry loves biotin. It works for me. But I tell dr I take if blood tests!
Hey Doc, Video Idea for your great reviews: The Palmer's product array; body and facial. I'm wondering whether Cocoa-butter really does what it claims (smooths scars and stretch marks) or is it an old wives' tale?
Yes. Please review some palmers products. My issue with them is nearly all contain fragrance. And their sulfur soap deserves a review
I appreciate all the great information you give us! TFS!🥰
Hi Dr Dray. Love your drugstore videos!! If you want and can do, would you review the Blulene Skincare? Thank you if you do.
Have a wonderful day!
Your recommendation for salicylic acid body wash/mists for tv has CHANGED EVERYTHING FOR ME! I didn’t have success w the dandruff shampoos, but the salicylic acid has cleared my skin after 4 years
Tv?

I found the Walgreens yellow moisturizing SPF to be more greasy compared to the blue bottle
Hi my name is Michael and I’ve been watching your channel and I’ve recently been diagnosed with dermatitis on my face and I seen nizoral shampoo can help but I’m just wondering can you use a lotion on your face after you wash it off or is it better to wait for awhile I have cerave lotion
Thank you! Love this! Many GREAT tips and products! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Happy Friday!!
You too!!
Thank you Dr Dray for another informative video. I didn’t see any differences on hair growth while taking Biotin. Interestingly I was found to have hypothyroidism which contributes on the hair loss 😅
