Ever since I started following this channel I stopped obsessing on trying to find gimmicky products. Thanks Dr. Ray for explaining such complex subjects so simply. Love from Mexico 💜
Ana NL holaa!! Qué lindo ver a más gente de México seguir a la dr Dray, a mí también me ha ayudado a elegir mejor los productos que uso en mi piel, a veces siento que no la conocen tanto por acá. Saludos de Monterrey!
Great video! I was not aware that colloidal oatmeal had all of these benefits. I can't even explain how much money you have saved me since I have started watching your channel. The products you recommend not only work better than the stuff others try to peddle as the next can't live without product, but they save money and they won't harm my skin. With the knowledge you impart, I know good skin care isn't just for the rich! Thanks!
For a bath, I've always put a cup of plain, rolled or quick cooking oatmeal in a panty hose & tied the ends off. Run bath water over it. Squish it & swirl it around in the water and use it as a bath sponge once you feel that viscous texture coming through. I do rinse off. Then you can drain the tub without oats going down it. If you have a severe skin issue this might not help. It's soothing to my skin but I don't have a severe skin issue. Edited to say that you could buy the plastic bubbles that have knee high hose in them in the hosiery section, inexpensively.
JUST tried this today and put it in an old thayers bottle.....***GASP**WIG SNATCHED! and my life will never be the same again. MY face feels so soft and my face doesn't fee dry or irritated like it usually does....
@@mere9721 yes it did start to smell...I am now really just using it for like once a week kinda treatment. But I wonder if I could add it to my face wash or something to at least get some daily benefits from it....
@@cecered5097 I was thinking the same thing, but I don't know if it would react well in the face wash over time since it clearly isn't good with just water over time. But now I'm just use it as a thick mask
I have psoriasis and a colloidal oatmeal soak has always been a go to for me when I have an inflammation. I also used it with honey on my face when I had a rosacea flare up and it took my redness down significantly. I sing the praises of colloidal oatmeal whenever I can!
I feel so validated by this video! After studying about the benefits of colloidal oatmeal I started using Aveeno Baby Colloidal Oatmeal as a face mask alternately with Manuka honey masks and my 65 year old skin is loving it. Thanks so much for all of your very helpful vlogs!
I use the Aveeno colloidal oatmeal on my cat whenever she has an eczema flare up. She hates it but her vet and I love that it works, lol! I use it for my eczema too 😸
Great video. I love using oatmeal. As someone with super sensitive skin, I pop some oats in a coffee grinder to make oat flour and add a bit of water and make a paste and use it as a face mask. Better than anything I’ve bought and cheaper to boot!
Thank you! I will be buying this oatmeal based product and who knew that those DIY sheet masks could be purchased like that? Dr. Dray, please take a deep breath in and relish in all the deep gratitude and love always heading to you from me! You are such an intelligent, beautiful, knowledgeable, godsend! Not even a month of having found you and I understand my skin so much more!
When my daughter was younger, she always had itchy, dry skin and sometimes hives, I would give her an oatmeal bath. Aveeno packets were the best. She still remembers that and thanks me to this day 💝. Happy Monday to all you beautiful people!! Thanks for another informative video Dr. Dray!! 🤗💕
When my 3 small children had chickenpox they suffered terribly with itchy scabbing lesions. I used to put oats in a leg of a stocking, tie a knot in the end and dump it in the bath with them before bedtime. It made the water lovely and slippery which they loved and helped their skin enormously. They had no scaring or disrupted sleep through itching as a result.
Thank God for this channel it is so refreshing to get a unbiased and scientific outlook of skincare products. I've been bingeing this channel and in a short time have learned a great deal on what I need to be looking for or avoiding in my products.😍💕
I discovered colloidal oatmeal last year and it’s what saved my skin and cleared it up completely. Aveeno’s moisturizing bar with oatmeal used to be AMAZING but they changed the formula unfortunately and the ingredients don’t seem to be as good. But I’ve also been making my own face mask with colloidal oatmeal for about a year now and it’s truly amazing!! I’m glad to see a video talking about this
i stopped buying store products for skincare and have gone online to research DIY alternatives. oatmeal has become my #1 miracle kitchen ingredient. i grind the quick oats into fine powder to use as cleanser on face, body scrub (mixed w/ brown sugar, sesame, coconut & olive oils and tomato or lemon juice: this i've been using as soap, exfoliator and moisturizer all in one. it takes off the chlorine from my avid swimming. key is to shower with cool water. yes, it's a bit messy but your skin will be smooth w/o need for lotions. since learning dr. dray's double clense, i use oil first then oatmeal. in baking, oatmeal flour replaces white and wheat flours in all my recipes.
Enjoyed! When my daughter contracted chicken pox when she was 5 years old, I bought a box of the Aveeno oatmeal bath treatments. Once she was better I still had a few packages left and I thought I'm going to use this for a facial mask , I very much liked it and my skin look great. That was quite a few years ago and I've kind of forgot all about it but thank you for reminding me , I'm going to pick up a box of oatmeal bath packages and start using it on my face as a mask. Great advice as always Happy Monday 😊🍁
I love colloidal oatmeal! I first heard about it from my Pediatrician who recommended it for my eczema when I was a child. I’ve used and loved it ever since!
For anybody in the UK, Freederm Pore Minimiser contains a B-Glucan complex plus Niacinamide...I enjoy using it underneath my Cerave Lotion. Extremely oily skin will love it on it's own, it contains a little clay to mattify the skin throughout the day. Worth a shot ☺
Colloidal oatmeal works magic! Thanks, Dr. Dray. Had the irrigation and atopic dermatitis after using Tretinoin for the first time for 3 nights. Colloidal oatmeal masks soothe the skin and fade the rashes so quickly.
This is wonderful information! Thank you Dr. Dray! I am a new subscriber and I have been going back and watching many of your previous videos. It’s so nice to get information about skincare that is coming from a dermatologist. I have mild rosacea but I am 71 years old and would really like to combat the signs of aging that I have. I will continue to watch your videos with great interest! You are also fun to watch because you have a cute sense of humor. Also your mom seems very sweet and it’s nice to see that you have such a great relationship with her. I live in southern Oklahoma so I’m not that far away. You have a wonderful week! 😀🌸
One more question, if I may? I have been hearing a lot about centella asiatica in skincare. Years ago I took CentellaVein for vein health. I have started taking it again. If taken internally, will it help the skin and in what way? I have contacted both Solaray and Laura Geller who has a primer that contains c.a. and no one has an answer. Thanks a million. XOXO Suzan
ca Is a very soothing ingredient. basically It has 4 compounds that also repair and show antibacterial aid. So I'd say it has a good chance of helping internally.
This is fabulous information! Thank you for telling us about more uses for this. Of course, have many times used it in a tub soak, and always helped my skin tremendously. I have made mask treatments but did not use the sheet mask application. This would be so much easier, and far less messy! Thank you so much. One of the few things that i could always count on to sooth roseacea flair ups, and also itchiness from just being in the garden, working. Even with gloves and all skin covered up, would still have irritated skin, and an oatmeal soak always worked. I now also understand why my skin felt “cleaned” even after just soaking. You are so kind to share your knowledge and insight. Thank you, Love all your videos!
Would love a video on summer skincare like dealing with mosquito bites, poison ivy, etc. since you touched on that a little in this video! Thanks as always :)
My oily, acne prone sensitive skin LOVES Aveeno products!! I also get urticaria since childhood; this is amazing! ❤❤❤❤❤ Aveeno is the perfect moisturiser after Salicylic Cleanser and Benzoyl Peroxide 5% Acnecide gel. ❤❤❤
I have eczema, and I would get red bumps on my cheeks if I use acne solutions or tretinoin. Ever since I've been watching Dr. Dray, I've been having the best skin ever. She taught me to moisturize first and put CeraVe ointment on my cheeks and around the eyes before I use tretinoin 😸. Plus, I listen to her advice , and I moisturize all day long.
I have been struggling with eczema all over my body and face for months. I am off on the hunt for this stuff and gonna have a go at DIY sheet masks too. Thanks Dr Dray!
Aveeno eczema therapy daily cream. I use it on my face at the end of my skincare routine. It makes my skin feel and look good. It's so economical because I can also use it on my neck and hand. Bought the 206 g package and it last forever.
I tried this exact same mask with 2 tsp Aveeno Colloidal Oitmeal Bath, the disposable sheet mask and the silicone overlay mask on top and let it sit for 20min on my skin. As I didnt know how my skin would react I rinsed it off with the Toleriane Cleanser by La Roche Posay and put Vanicream on, which is the only moisturizer my skin tolerates at the moment. Let me tell you my skin: I have dry skin, due to thyroid illness, probably rosacea, as I have red irritated, flushed cheeks, sometimes with little pimples, and my cheeks reacts to basically everything since I got an allergic reaction there to Ducray Delulal DS with zinc pyrithione, which I used in hope it would help for my red cheeks. And this diy mask was wonderful! Very soothing! My cheeks feel so much calmer, my overall skin is moisturized and soft. The redness on the cheeks is minimized. Its not completely away, but I hope to get it completely away with continued use. Dr Dray, how often would you suggest to use this mask? Thank you Dr Dray for this video! You are so generous to give your incredible knowledge to all of us and even respond to our questions! I am very grateful!
Hi Dr. Dray. After watching your video I put some organic oatmeal in my Vitamix and made a fine powder out of it. I then made a paste with it with water and put it on my face under a hyaluronic acid sheet mask and left it on for a half hour. Wow, my skin is glowing and very soft.
I love these packets for the bath. I also use the Aveeno itch relief balm with oatmeal in the tub. I think it is marketed eczema relief. It feels so good on itchies and doesn’t irritate my sensitive skin. I’m gonna try it as a mask.
Thank you for teaching about the oatmeal for the bath. I have experienced an allergic reaction to poison ivy before, mosquitos seem to love me so I will get this for a bath to help soothe the skin. Many thanks. Very helpful.
Thanks for this video - I’ve use the Aveeno eczema therapy baby body balm and I find it more effective than Cerve moisturizer in the jar, for my dry skin.
Thanks so much for making this video. I've used the Aveeno baby colloidal oatmeal product on my face (as a slurry/paste) from time to time. I love it. It leaves my skin feeling incredibly soft. At any rate, I wasn't sure I was on the right track with this product, but now I know. Thanks for validating what I sort of knew all along.
Colossal information about Colloidal Oatmeal. Your in-depth research blesses us with yet another winner that is gentle and healing. Looking forward to trying these packets and they’ll be perfect for business travel too. Hugs ....Sherry
Your many videos require so much work and effort. Thank you for this education. I like this new set up, maybe could be tweaked but all and all it's good. Maybe some time, when needed, have a prop board with you, just an idea of some bullet points. Wow, you are truly on board with oatmeal, "made the right way". Now, that's something you could possibly market and find the niche for? I love this vlog, and I lean toward things for self care with the least amount of words I can't pronounce. Awesome info here, thanks again for sharing that PhD/MD. :)
I love the Aveeno Eczema Therapy Moisturizing Cream. I don't have eczema but am a post menopausal woman struggling to get HRT just right. This means my skin often gets dry and irritated more easily. I will simply moisten my face with plain water and then put this on top. It is so soothing and never, ever irritates me where sometime others face creams can. I remember when my kids were little (we have 6 of them) they all got chicken pox at the same time. I would put oatmeal into a sock and run a bath with it (use it like a tea bag) and would bathe the girls all together and then run another one for all the boys. It really helped with the itching and irritation of the chicken pox.
Unfortunately we don't have aveeno in my country, nor do we have any similar product. I use plain oats in the palm of my hand, dampen them in water until I get a runny white past and water then cleans my face with it. (I learnd this method from a lovely lady on RUclips).
You are such a blessing, Doc! I had a bottle of Aveeno lotion in my cupboard & began using it again. It sinks in beautifully. That is one elegant formula; it's just *soothing*. Can't believe I'd had it sitting here! I ordered the soak & the disposable masks as that is *brilliant*. I have the silicone mask holder. I'd given up on most facial masks as finding one without fragrance is a battle. I ordered their moisturizing fragrance-free/soap-free bodywash to try as well. Blessings! Jackie in upstate NY
It’s available in Singapore - yay! Have used it a few times as a sheet mask per your recommendation, and love how comfortable and soft my face feels after .
I literally just bought those baby bath oat packets last week thinking I could mix it with water and use it as a face mask to relieve my dry skin... glad you reinforced this idea!
I'm ordering this now I'm always using Expensive products to moisturize my skin and lately since the weather change I've been so itchy I can't wait to get this TY
Thank you for showing us how to make an oatmeal sheet mask. I appreciate that you gave us a source for the disposable sheet masks. I am enjoying Aveeno Eczema Therapy daily moisturizing cream; it is the most soothing moisturizer I have ever used.
Another great video! I grew up taking baths using colloidal oatmeal as well for hives, but bites, and (heaven forbid) sunburn. Thanks for the reminder to stock up and the idea to use it as a mask.
Tried a lot of Aveeno products that you always talk about and they are awesome. Very gentle never burn or sting my face or body. I would never have tried these products on my own but heating you talk about them I picked a few while at Walgreens. They are as good as you said. Thanx Dr DRay I love them and would never have tried these on my own. I will only use what you recommend now and will not take anybodys elses recommmendations
I LOVE my aveeno baby colloidal oatmeal. So cost effective and helps literally overnight the peeling and redness on my face. My seborrheic dermatitis lesions around my nasolabial folds also calms down significantly. Dr Dray, I saw in one of your videos that you were trying out the La Roche Posay lipikar cream. I was wondering what you thought of it and how it would compare to aveeno?
That's where the Derma-illogica colloids oatmeal mask tubs come useful. Gigantic tubs available on Amazon in UK. Thanks for the tips on those sheetmasks. I've been struggling to find a way to keep the oats longer wet (I've read that's the best way for it to be active...). Now I've taken to using the oatmeal in the mornings in a bit of water as cleanser and just rub a tad gently...not sure this is what you meant in the first bit of the video. Would appreciate more tips on the various uses (e.g. I've read that it's not so active or beneficial when dry?). My skin loves oats! Skin "type" - sensitive, atopical dermatitis.
really love this video about Oat benefits. I've got one tube of Aveeno lotion lying around the house for some time now, will finish it now. Another thing, your skin is really beautiful.
Love your videos, you cover on so many skin care questions that I have. I make lots of diy skin care products for my family at home and you have helped me to perfect it even more! Thank you!
I bought an aveeno moisturizer the other day and my skin went from dry and flaky to healthy and glowing in like three days of regularly moisturizing. I’m never going back haha
When I had horrible eczema has a child and Hylegia was discontinued or no longer covered by insurance ($300 in a liter bottle), Avenno was the next best thing.
Nice to be confirmed by Dr. Dray when I have already been using Aveeno Dermexa Daily Emollient Body Wash and repurchased another one because it is a wonderful gentle body wash.
How long can I keep it for? Is it better to put it in the fridge? Don’t wanna get rid off such goodness so quick!! Thank you for this video, love love love this tips!! ♥️
I developed eczema on my face a couple of years ago at age 54 after a very stressful time in my life. It is particularly persistent and itchy, painful, and crusty on my upper and lower eyelids, and under eye area. It gets so inflamed that is actually really affecting my life. I am not going to use hydrocortisone cream anymore, it just doesn't work for long, and I don't think it should be used around the eyes at all. After watching this video I decided to try the Aveeno colloidal oatmeal. I will try it for the first time today and let you know how it works out. Dr. Dray, if you have any other advice for me it would be greatly appreciated.
Such fantastic tips on ways to use colloidal oatmeal in skincare! Definitely trying it as a mask! I personally really like using the aveeno baby balm on my face at night (has colloidal oatmeal) and it’s not greasy at all!
If someone has an allergy to edible oatmeal, how likely is it that they also have an allergy to topical oatmeal? If someone was told that they have an allergy to "oatmeal," should they avoid oatmeal-containing skincare products as well, or is there a discretion between the two?
@@rdeg94 It's possible that she bought the colloidal oats and put them in her own jar. Amazon has packages of bulk colloidal oats, but nothing in a jar.
My skin just adores oats!💚
Such a valuable ingredient! Hope you are having a good week :)
Liah!!💜🌸
Wow liah
Hi Liah...though you be here..all good stuff is here✌🏻🤫😉
6 months later.... oat so simple!
Dr dray has made me so aware of skincare on another level😍 if it has fragrance I don’t want it!
:)
Stupid

Much love from El Paso! 🥰🏜️
Sounds like an underrated ingredient that’s not used in marketing much. Thank you for the info!
My grandma used to wrap some uncut porridge oats into a muslin bag and put it into my bath when I was a kid, as I had excema. Very soothing.

Thank you, I will defiantly give the pantyhose thing a try!
Ooooooo! that sounds nice.
Great. Will try that. I haven't purchased a panty hose, since 1990s. I wonder were I can find them this days?
I like dr dray. Other dermatologists don’t explain shit and just want to sell super expensive products.
JUST tried this today and put it in an old thayers bottle.....***GASP**WIG SNATCHED! and my life will never be the same again. MY face feels so soft and my face doesn't fee dry or irritated like it usually does....
I was waiting for my Thayer's bottle to finish so I could do this too 😆👍🏾
I don't know if it's just me, but over time the toner started to stink. Did that happen to you?
@@mere9721 yes it did start to smell...I am now really just using it for like once a week kinda treatment. But I wonder if I could add it to my face wash or something to at least get some daily benefits from it....

It has 0.5%

they are handy
I use that mixed with water to make a mask for my super sensitive face. Works wonder
Holy guacamole, I’m trying this! Thank you Doc! Such a brilliant idea and a cost saver for certain! Have a wonderful week😘

ForgiveAndLove09 I really like that Aveeno balm too.
it is really handy
Thank you for teaching about the oatmeal for the bath. I have experienced an allergic reaction to poison ivy before, mosquitos seem to love me so I will get this for a bath to help soothe the skin. Many thanks. Very helpful.
posion ivy & mosquitos are unbearable
aveeno is my go to for most face and body products♥️♥️♥️
Wild that I just put this on my face and came here looking for info and found this video. I had no idea😊
I love how you have thoroughly discussed the benefits of colloidal oats. I love aveeno more now. 😘
Do you have a video where you touch on what eye products/routines you recommend to prevent wrinkles/aging? Thanks!!
Thanks for this video - I’ve use the Aveeno eczema therapy baby body balm and I find it more effective than Cerve moisturizer in the jar, for my dry skin.
Thanks so much for making this video. I've used the Aveeno baby colloidal oatmeal product on my face (as a slurry/paste) from time to time. I love it. It leaves my skin feeling incredibly soft. At any rate, I wasn't sure I was on the right track with this product, but now I know. Thanks for validating what I sort of knew all along.
thanks for watching :)
Prefer the bedroom setup, more cosier and less echo
Colossal information about Colloidal Oatmeal. Your in-depth research blesses us with yet another winner that is gentle and healing. Looking forward to trying these packets and they’ll be perfect for business travel too. Hugs ....Sherry
Thanks! Hope you have a great week Ms Sherry
Love this video! You are so intelligent and humble ☺️
Your many videos require so much work and effort. Thank you for this education. I like this new set up, maybe could be tweaked but all and all it's good. Maybe some time, when needed, have a prop board with you, just an idea of some bullet points. Wow, you are truly on board with oatmeal, "made the right way". Now, that's something you could possibly market and find the niche for? I love this vlog, and I lean toward things for self care with the least amount of words I can't pronounce. Awesome info here, thanks again for sharing that PhD/MD. :)
I love the Aveeno Eczema Therapy Moisturizing Cream. I don't have eczema but am a post menopausal woman struggling to get HRT just right. This means my skin often gets dry and irritated more easily. I will simply moisten my face with plain water and then put this on top. It is so soothing and never, ever irritates me where sometime others face creams can. I remember when my kids were little (we have 6 of them) they all got chicken pox at the same time. I would put oatmeal into a sock and run a bath with it (use it like a tea bag) and would bathe the girls all together and then run another one for all the boys. It really helped with the itching and irritation of the chicken pox.
chicken pox are not fun
Wow thank you for this, have been having facial itching. Just ordered from amazon. Love your videos.
let me know how it goes :)
I’m totally going to try this on my face👀
Fascinating! Your passion for oatmeal definitely was apparent.
Unfortunately we don't have aveeno in my country, nor do we have any similar product. I use plain oats in the palm of my hand, dampen them in water until I get a runny white past and water then cleans my face with it. (I learnd this method from a lovely lady on RUclips).
Aderma is a French brand based on oats! For the Europeans out there. Aderma is owned by Fabre by the way (Avène, Glytone..)
You are such a blessing, Doc! I had a bottle of Aveeno lotion in my cupboard & began using it again. It sinks in beautifully. That is one elegant formula; it's just *soothing*. Can't believe I'd had it sitting here! I ordered the soak & the disposable masks as that is *brilliant*. I have the silicone mask holder. I'd given up on most facial masks as finding one without fragrance is a battle. I ordered their moisturizing fragrance-free/soap-free bodywash to try as well. Blessings! Jackie in upstate NY
Thanks Ms Jackie! Let me know how the mask goes :)
It’s available in Singapore - yay! Have used it a few times as a sheet mask per your recommendation, and love how comfortable and soft my face feels after .
I literally just bought those baby bath oat packets last week thinking I could mix it with water and use it as a face mask to relieve my dry skin... glad you reinforced this idea!
:)
Did it work for you?
I'm ordering this now I'm always using Expensive products to moisturize my skin and lately since the weather change I've been so itchy I can't wait to get this TY
Oh my gawd, the aveno oatmeal lotion has helped me and my kids persistent eczema so, so, soooo much.
Thank you for showing us how to make an oatmeal sheet mask. I appreciate that you gave us a source for the disposable sheet masks. I am enjoying Aveeno Eczema Therapy daily moisturizing cream; it is the most soothing moisturizer I have ever used.
Another great video! I grew up taking baths using colloidal oatmeal as well for hives, but bites, and (heaven forbid) sunburn. Thanks for the reminder to stock up and the idea to use it as a mask.
Will it work on hives
Tried a lot of Aveeno products that you always talk about and they are awesome. Very gentle never burn or sting my face or body. I would never have tried these products on my own but heating you talk about them I picked a few while at Walgreens. They are as good as you said. Thanx Dr DRay I love them and would never have tried these on my own. I will only use what you recommend now and will not take anybodys elses recommmendations
I LOVE my aveeno baby colloidal oatmeal. So cost effective and helps literally overnight the peeling and redness on my face. My seborrheic dermatitis lesions around my nasolabial folds also calms down significantly. Dr Dray, I saw in one of your videos that you were trying out the La Roche Posay lipikar cream. I was wondering what you thought of it and how it would compare to aveeno?
That's where the Derma-illogica colloids oatmeal mask tubs come useful. Gigantic tubs available on Amazon in UK. Thanks for the tips on those sheetmasks. I've been struggling to find a way to keep the oats longer wet (I've read that's the best way for it to be active...).
Now I've taken to using the oatmeal in the mornings in a bit of water as cleanser and just rub a tad gently...not sure this is what you meant in the first bit of the video. Would appreciate more tips on the various uses (e.g. I've read that it's not so active or beneficial when dry?). My skin loves oats!
Skin "type" - sensitive, atopical dermatitis.
It's only 1%, but for those who like a traditional body wash, Rainbow Research Colloidal Oatmeal Bath and Body Wash, Fragrance Free is nice.
I love your lighting here but love to have you closer to the camera!
Excellent video. Thank you so much for the education you provide
Love the new background/setup!
really love this video about Oat benefits. I've got one tube of Aveeno lotion lying around the house for some time now, will finish it now. Another thing, your skin is really beautiful.
Thanks!
Love your videos, you cover on so many skin care questions that I have. I make lots of diy skin care products for my family at home and you have helped me to perfect it even more! Thank you!
I bought an aveeno moisturizer the other day and my skin went from dry and flaky to healthy and glowing in like three days of regularly moisturizing. I’m never going back haha
I have been using this for soothing and moisturizing skin for s while now. Really love it.
I love oatmeal. I incorporate this magical stuff into my skincare, especially when my eczema flares up. It’s amazing!
When I had horrible eczema has a child and Hylegia was discontinued or no longer covered by insurance ($300 in a liter bottle), Avenno was the next best thing.
I prefer this setting for your videos more than your normal set up. I think the lighting is more even.
Thanks! I think i need a microphone to avoid the echo
My tip/opinion would be a little bit more zoomed in, I could hardly see the bottle you were holding.
@@DrDrayzday Yes, you would need a separate mic to get rid of the echo!
Nice to be confirmed by Dr. Dray when I have already been using Aveeno Dermexa Daily Emollient Body Wash and repurchased another one because it is a wonderful gentle body wash.
How long can I keep it for? Is it better to put it in the fridge? Don’t wanna get rid off such goodness so quick!! Thank you for this video, love love love this tips!! ♥️
I developed eczema on my face a couple of years ago at age 54 after a very stressful time in my life. It is particularly persistent and itchy, painful, and crusty on my upper and lower eyelids, and under eye area. It gets so inflamed that is actually really affecting my life. I am not going to use hydrocortisone cream anymore, it just doesn't work for long, and I don't think it should be used around the eyes at all. After watching this video I decided to try the Aveeno colloidal oatmeal. I will try it for the first time today and let you know how it works out. Dr. Dray, if you have any other advice for me it would be greatly appreciated.
Awesome!! Thank you, Dr. Dray, for another informative content. I can never miss your channel.
Such fantastic tips on ways to use colloidal oatmeal in skincare! Definitely trying it as a mask! I personally really like using the aveeno baby balm on my face at night (has colloidal oatmeal) and it’s not greasy at all!
i love the balm :)
I've been so curious about colloidal oatmeal but afraid to try it. Thank you for sharing this information Dr. Dray. I hope you have a wonderful day!
Happy Monday!
If someone has an allergy to edible oatmeal, how likely is it that they also have an allergy to topical oatmeal? If someone was told that they have an allergy to "oatmeal," should they avoid oatmeal-containing skincare products as well, or is there a discretion between the two?
have you found your answer? Then, please let me know too
ok, heading to target right now! By the way would love to hear your thoughts on amazon's new skin care line Belei. :)
Me looking @ my jar of colloidal oats: There is no way this will work.
My colloidal oat bath on the first try: *works*
Where did you get the jar?? I'm looking for a bigger volume than the Aveeno but that's all I can find
@@rdeg94
It's possible that she bought the colloidal oats and put them in her own jar.
Amazon has packages of bulk colloidal oats, but nothing in a jar.
My three year old is obsessed with the aveeno oat bath for bath time.
Excellent 👍😀
I'll be buying reconstituted face mask from Amazon and colloidal oatmeal ❤️
A mask of oat powder with honey is the best to calm my skin
What’s the difference from collidle oats ? And regular oats and how do I buy them if they are different?
I’m so glad I found you just today, you sound like my kind of doctor, thank you 🙏 😊
