Thanks so much and so glad the tips have helped you!
@@DrAlexisStephens yes I would love to learn about retinol products for the body. Thx!
@@DrAlexisStephens the retinol for the body you recommended is a body wash, correct? If so, I didn't know rinse off would be effective.
@@DrAlexisStephens is it ok to have laser done while using a retinoid?
Yea bady Active 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thank you so much for all of the information on Retinol and yes, would love a video on peptides in skincare!
You got it!
Yes, please - provide product recommendations for body hyperpigmentation.
Same!
YES PLEASE A VIDEO ON BODY HYPERPIGMENTATION WILL BE GREAT THANK YOU 😌🙏🏾
Yes Please! Make a video for products that help with body pigmentation, and body retinols. Fragrance-free and cruelty-free, if possible. Thank you so much!
We would a body video overall - cleansers, moisturizers, retinols, vitamin Cs. BODYODYODY!
This video is absolutely incredible❣️ I always refrain from asking questions because I know you are extremely busy juggling personal and professional obligations. And the fact that you recorded this after having several commitments…❤️ The creative vehicle of addressing the most common questions is pure genius-the concept may have been done by others but the way you impart knowledge is a gift. Thank you 🙏🏽
The most kind comment I read
My favorite black dermatologist, your skin is glowing. I’m waiting for your skincare line. I would like a video on peptide and the best product. Thanks
I'm waiting on the skincare line as well. 😍 Please also sell it in Europe if... when you get there in your journey.

I have never seen anyone's face this smooth. It's unbelievable.
a lot of botox
Your skin is radiant. It’s positively glowing! Thanks for all the fantastic information. It wasn’t too long!
I’ve been waiting a long time for a video that addresses BODY hyperpigmentation/scarring - especially for darker skin tones. PLEASE educate us on that.
Oooo
I would love a video specifically for body hyperpigmentation...for example areas neck, chest, back, butt (from acne) armpits, knees, shins, and bikini area.
YESS!!
That would be a good topic!
Thank you for all the Golden nuggets you offer us.
Would love to see your skin care routine and/or makeup routine please :)
I'ma need Dr Stephens to give us her on camera makeup application because ya girl is FLAWLESS
Yes! A video on the topic retinol and exfoliation! ✨🧖🏻♀️✨
Thanks for watching!
I don’t want to be Beyoncé. I don’t want to be Cardi B. I don’t want to be you, but I aspire to be like you. With that being said, I DO WANT THE SKIN THO SIS! PERIODT. Have a wonderful day Dr. Stephens.
I love the amount of information this doctor provides in every one of her videos that I've seen so far. They are extremely educational. Thank you so much.
I love how I'm thinking about skincare, then pull out my phone to find out you uploaded.
This is by far the best video I have ever seen on this subject. Thank you so much.
You are glowing! Your skin looks amazing Doc!
You are so genuine!! I love your videos - informative not salesy n great, polite n down to earth manner! Thank you 🙏🏼 ❤️
Thank you Dr. Stephens, like many others been coming back to your videos alot to figure out routines that I can implement fairly quickly because you give SO MANY product recommendations catering to different circumstances. This makes starting the process of skincare maintenance way less overwhelming by removing a lot of guesswork upfront.
This video was very helpful, I was waiting patiently for it! Thank you for answering my question directly and always looking out for us melanated folks 💜💜💜
Love the explanations on why use certain products. LOVEEE that I can use anything she mentions because it’s safe and works on brown skin.
An appreciation post, Dr Stephens, finding you in 2020 and applying the knowledge you share saved and completely transformed my skin. I went from dehydrated, acne inflamed, hyperpigmented skin to clear, acne controlled, bright skin in 3-4 months. I now direct everyone to you. Thank you so much!
Which products did you decide to go with?? Happy for you!
her skin is unbelievable xxx
Queen is glowing!!!!!! Looking awesome!! Thanks for the info so so much!!!!
Thank you a lot. Your explanation are so helpful, clear and clever. I'm beginning to lose my fear of using retinol. What you're doing is so much needed and might avoid people from damaging their skin using wrongly some products.
Yes, I would definitely love to see a video about retinol use on body and actives too.❤️❤️❤️❤️your videos. Appreciate all you doing to educate and inform all WOC.
Hello Dr Lex,
Thank you!
YES, I think we all will love and appreciate a video for the body/body hyperpigmentation product recommendations!
Thank you!
Love, love, love your channe! I will refer my subscribers to you for extensive answers to their anti-aging product use questions.
Thank you so much!❤
Thank you, Dr. Alexis. Yes, please do a video on body hyperpigmentation!! I have learned so much from your videos. Thanks again !! 💕🙏🏽
Ive been battling with my skin for years now. Finally got my hands on some Differin, I’ve been researching for a couple of weeks now BUT since finding you I’ve had to look no further!♥️ Your videos have answered all my questions and I’ve learnt so much, (so happy you’re on TikTok too hehe) Thank you for your wonderful videos God bless you!😘
you’re our saviour, we just need you and Dr.V- the best resources for coloured skin
As always, what an excellent video. I always learn a lot from you. Yes, I'd love to learn more about what retinol products I can use on my body. Thank you so much 💕
I love your advice and you are truly trusted. Thank you so much. I am 61 yrs old and my skin is looking so much better. You are a blessing to women of color.
I love a video on peptides. I am still confused on how to effectively work them in my skincare routine, because I know peptides and amino acids are harder to penetrate into the skin.
Thank you for relying on science and empirical data when making your recommendations! I love your videos.
You’re so thorough and beautiful! I trust your recommendations. Thank you! 🙏
Thank you Dr Stephens. You are my online go-to. I appreciate the quality of the products that you recommend. Many of the less expensive retinols recommended elsewhere contained chemicals that I cannot/choose not to use for my concerns e.g.mineral oil, petrolatum, stearic acid. I deeply appreciate your recommendations and tips. Thanks, again. 🙏🏾
The glow on this womans skin is mind blowing!
Thank you so much! This entire video is wonderful. I’d love for you to one day do a video on in office procedures (microdermabrasion, hydrafacials, etc) which are good for regular “upkeep” or to speed up cleaning up hyperpigmentation
Your skin is popping ❤️❤️❤️😍 thank you for all your videos.
I just watched this whole video and I love it 🙌🏽 definitely learnt something new today thank you x
Yes please do a video on body products and also a general body routine (eg is it ok to physically exfoliate, how often exfoliating is recommended, does showering twice a day strip skin from natural oils, is it ok to use anti perspirants or are natural deodorants recommended etc)
YES! please do a video on best routine or retinoids to use on the body for back acne/scarring
YES FOR PRODUCTS FOR THE BODY!!! I am in NEED of that video!!!
Thanks Dr! Your videos are soooo informative and helpful! ❤️ Please make a video recommending body products for body hyperpigmentation, dry skin and stretch marks🙏🏾
Amazing amazing amazing video.! You answered so mane questions I had. Please continue doing videos like this one. Yes, I will absolutely love a video about peptides!
Your skin is giving me Sunkissed Vibes I can't focus love your channel Dr. 💞😁🌸🌻
Thanks so much for watching!
What a great Q&A video!
Such relevant info. Thank you 😊
Thank you Dr Alexis for these videos on skincare. I live in England and alot of these items are very difficult to find, not even via Amazon. I'm grateful for the information and will do the best I can with what is available.
A video about how to achieve retain hair length for women 50+ (especially with fine 4c hair would be greatly appreciated. I am learning so much with you and sharing you videos with as many women as possible.
Thank you so much Dr. Alexis for your very well presented and clear videos. May God continue to bless; protect and favour you and your family.
Dr.Stephen's, thanks so much for educating, inspiringand sharing resources with us. I have learned so much by watching your videos. ❤❤❤❤
Dr.Alexis my skin is the bomb, since I found you! Thank you. Before meeting you it was a struggle.😊
Thanks for all that you do! I’d love to see a video on body pigmentation and managing eczema in children. Thank you so much Doc!
Xx
Yesss to the peptide video Dr.Alexis!
Dr Alexis, you're back!!!!
I have searched the web for this information and could not find it to save my life. Thank you so much for taking the time to do this. I use Taz and do not exfoliate because I don’t want to burn my face. I’ve always wanted to know if there’s a proper way to do this.
ETA: I was just considering the skinbetter serum. Glad to know you give a (tentative) thumbs-up!
Wow! Where have you been all my life?!!! Currently studying to be an esthetician. Your videos are courses on their own!. Thank you doctor.

Omg, what do you use? I’m struggling with my oily skin.
Love your content! Wish you could be my doctor. I feel like I could learn a lot and get really specific with my skin care. Thanks for sharing with the rest of us! Also, YES on peptides (especially copper and how to try to fit it in with Vit C and AHAs, which are usually used opposite each other AM and PM; where/when does it go?).
So incredibly helpful! Thank you! And yes to a vid on body hyperpigmentation!
Love your commitment to African American clientele. Yes, please do a video on peptides and retinol.
Thank you for this wonderful video! So many of my questions were answered!
Dr. Alexis can’t wait to come back to your office! And yes regarding the video for body.
You are so kind to answer so many important questions, Doctor!
Yes, Dr. Stephens, I would love to see a video on product recommendations for body hyperpigmentation.
Thanks again! Yes I would love the video on peptides
Yes, please a video on peptides in skincare! Product recommendations and where to place in a routine would be very beneficial. Thank you for your videos. :)
My gosh you are absolutely RADIANT! 🤩
Excellent video! Your skin looks flawless! Use most of products you recommend but would like a video for wrinkles and sagging on mature skin for us senior citizens please!
Thank you so much Dr. Stephens!
I'm blessed to be able to afford Skinbetter products, looove them and they work.
Just for reference, I'm a medium-deep skinned woman in my late 40s, oily-combination skin with mild acne and some ridiculous hyperpigmentatiom/dull skin issues.
Started using Cyspera in May 2021-on my 2nd tube now. Still using it daily and my skin is improving.
My routine (very simple) includes products Dr. Alexis mentioned-and they work beautiful-esp. For my reactive skin.
AM routine:
1. Cyspera for 15-20 mins.
2. IS clinical cleansing complex
3. Skinbetter Science ALTO Defense Serum (for vitamin c)
4. ISDIN Eryfotona Actinica Emulsion SPF 50 (does leavr a bit of a cast-which later dissapears)
PM routine: includes double cleansing:
1a. Elemis cleansing balm
1b. IS Clinical cleansing complex
2. Eye cream-Eyemax by Skinbettet
3. A Retinoid-Skinbetter Science Alpharet Overnight Creme (For the next 2 weeks, I will be trying Skinbetter Clearing Serum-got samples-will update.)
4. Treatment: Once a week one on Tuesdays and the mask on Fridays-Skinbetter Science peeling pads(so strong and I use with the TRIO Moisturizer)/a clay mask.
Love Skinbetter Science products.🙏🏽
Love all your videos and YOU!!! Please do a video for retinol for the body and when to use and what products to use on the skin post menopausal skin.
A very informative and helpful video Dr. Thank you so much 🙏🙏🙏
This video was awesome! Thank you for such detail answers.
Since using a retinal regularly, I find less of a need to exfoliate with acids. My skin feels so smooth with the retinal alone that once I’ve used up my AHA and BHA I probably won’t repurchase. Retinal is a wonderful exfoliate on its own 😊
Good to know!
What retinal are you using?
@@danaburks3091 Paula’s Choice 1%
I agree. I have been using a Retinol serum, and I really don't see a need to use an exfoliant at this point. It's overkill to the skin.
Thank you for this and yes to some recommendations for body hyperpigmentation!!
Thank you Dr. Stephens, very informative. I would appreciate a video about recommeded products for the body.
thank you for the timestamps in the description!
One of the best videos I’ve seen on skincare. Thank you. Would love to know if tranexamic acid can be paired with retinoids.
This was really helpful! Thank you for the information and your time! Also - ✅To a video on peptides and retinols and ✅To a video on retinols for the body!
Thanks so much for this video, Dr. Alexis!! Really appreciate you taking the time to go through our questions and make vids based on what your viewers want to know. I'm also curious whether you recommend using skincare tools (like dermaplane, jade roller, gua sha, etc.) to increase absorption, or if any of these should NOT be used with retinols and other actives. I think you said in your dermaplane video to treat it like you would an exfoliant? And yes to a body care video please! 🙏🙏🙏
This video was extremely helpful!
Please would you do a video on body acne. Specifically chest and back acne. I've been suffering with these for years 😩
Just went through most of your hyperpigmentation videos but then coming up to my nightly skin care routine got confused as I use a retinol based cream every night and wasn't sure what was safe/not safe to pair with it 😭thank you sooo so much for making this video and addressing things so clearly! Subscribed after watching 1 video and have been going through for the past few hours 😅
Hi Dr. Alexis, I appreciate this video and your effort! I'd be curious as to your opinion on whether you prefer a low-percentage exfoliant (like a toner) more often, a mid-strength exfoliating mask once per week, or a peel once per month? In terms of efficacy and results alongside retinoids.
What does the dr use ? I love the glow and shine ! That’s what I’m look in for the most ??
another awesome video! Yes please make a video about body hyperpigmentation!
Thank you for this video. Yes to videos on body hyperpigmentation!
