My journey of 5 years long disgusting acne was finished with Tretinoin 0.5 topical ointment. Yes , Tretinoin is the best treatment out there. Moreover,it was Dr. Iddrisss who introduced me with Tretinoin. Love you doctor 💝
Great information. A follow up video or part 2 of how you can use these together would be helpful! Assuming you need to cycle with some of them or apply particular ones in the morning and at night etc.
I use the PanOxyl every morning for a couple minutes and then wash off. I use tretinoin every night (but you have to work up to that.) I use the BHA once a week and also exfoliate a couple other times during the week with an AHA. I use the Azelaic Acid every night. Paula's choice is better than The Ordinary, but I haven't tried Peach Slices yet. It's cheaper than PC, so I'll try it next.
@@IngerNordahl Hello 😊 would you be able to share a few things regarding your routine? What strength panoxyl do you use? What order do you apply your azelaic acid and tret? Also what night moisturiser do you use? Sorry for all the questions!
@onewhitewolf13 I was using the equate (Walmart brand) version of panoxyl but they changed the formula to add an abrasive grit, so now I'm using the brand name stuff. Both are 10%. I just leave it on while I'm brushing my teeth in the am and then wash it off. It's been a game change for my breakouts though. I like Paula's Choice azaleic acid which I add to my nighttime moisturizer, which is Aveeno calm and restore oat gel moisturizer. I start my night with Cerave Pm moisturizer and then I apply my prescription tret (0.5%). I'm up to 3 nights a week applying my tret without the cerave pm moisturizer first. For my neck, I use an Olay retinol (purple 2 pack from costco). I don't apply the azaleic acid/moisturizer until after I've brushed my teeth and flossed, giving my tret a bit of time to soak in. Hope this helps.
I used AHA, BHA but my acne wasn't fully clear. But 3 months ago I tried tretinoin (retinoid acid). in the first 2 months it gave me purging. Now, I have never seen acne appears in my face for the last 3 weeks and my skin has never been better 🤩
I love sulfur! More specifically, I love sulfur hot springs. I went to Japan 2 months ago, went to an onsen that had an outdoor pool that I didn’t realize was a sulfur springs. My body had never felt smoother or softer. I will definitely try out the sulfur products!!
Dr idriss vous êtes un diamond rare dans la communauté, j'ai appliqué tous vos conseils depuis 2 ans mnt et ma peau n'a jamais été aussi belle merci du fond du cœur vous êtes la meilleure ❤❤❤
Thank you so much for this! I’ve struggled with acne since 6th grade - 28 now and still battle with hormonal / inflammatory breakouts but I’m figuring it out. We appreciate you
@@nadiaelkaid7131 Yes. At night after shower. moisturizer let it dry down then Salicylic acid or Azelic acid let it dry down the sme moisturizer as before let it dry down then Retinol.
Thank you. Benzol peroxide spot treatments don't do anything for my pimples. Including the La Roche-Posay. They all look the same the next morning. Truly effective spot treatments is what I'd like to hear about.
Would love to see a video with top ingredients for dehydrated sensitive skin (combo or dry). I have combo dehydrated skin, it’s a struggle to find the right products!
A great sulfur product if you're willing to spend the money is the Sulfur Clay mask from Peter Thomas Roth. A lot of people might not like it because it's fragranced however it's a very medical fragrance smell and it does NOT smell like sulfur which is a huge bonus. In my experience you only get a whiff of the sulfur smell once you start washing it off with water. Until then though I've left it on my skin for hours with absolutely no terrible rotten egg smell.
Thank you so much for this video, I’ve definitely struggled a lot with acne transitioning into my late 20s (teens weren’t fun either but I’ve definitely noticed an uptake later on) but this was super helpful. I’m starting Esthetician school in December and I’ve been binge watching your videos to help me prepare for school and get my product knowledge up. Love your videos doc 🩵
Tret was great but BENZOYL PEROXIDE 5% Acnecide which I avoided for 14 years was incredible for huge areas of back acne which persisted despite tret ointment. Salicylic 2% cleansers like LRP Effaclar Micro Peeling or Inkey Salicylic are amazing maintenance treatments for nose deep blackheads, used daily and left on nose for 5 minutes before rinsing off. Use gentle cleanser everywhere else.
Just want to say I enjoy your videos. I’m a late bloomer in taking care of my face. I like how you explain the steps on how and when to incorporate the products into ones regime. Thanks.
Were they hormonal and cystic? I’ve read it’s only suitable for mild acne but since you mentioned you were on accutane twice. So I might have some hope
Dermalmd acne serum is a must-have for anyone with acne. It’s a game-changer for me. It makes my skin clear, smooth and glowing. It also lasts a long time and has a great value.
SEBORREIC DERMATITIS: Do a video on seborrreic dermatitis (SD) with sensitive skin, where you adresse: 1) how to manage/treat SD related chronic redness/erythema on the face, and 2) skin care recommendation for SD (as products that restore skin barrier function via lipids/oils/ceramides tend to aggravate SD)
Great list, I’m a dermatology PA and find a lot of these ingredients work well for my patients as well. Only suggestion if you could just hold the product instead of moving it so much while you talk so we can better see it while you’re talking about it or insert a photo of it 😊
Thank you for this great informative video. I have a question here, all these 5 retinoids, benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid, azelaic acid, sulfur are best acne treatment products. But which one to start with? or can i use them all simultaneously?
I've been using the Tower 28 hypochlorous acid spray for maskne and it has helped significantly. And The Ordinary's salicylic acid masque on my nose to help with my huge pores. 🍓😅
omg yes! Dr. Idriss got me on the Walgreen's hypochlorous acid a year ago (a lot cheaper) and it's done wonders. Use it on my face when I feel bumps under my skin and my back as well (when I workout and can't shower immediately. I break out so badly on there)
@lindamenina109 yes! Just spray it whenever. Its gentle for the skin and doesn't interrupt the pH. Dr. Idriss recommended it for mask acne but I use it for acne in general on my face and back.
Great content Dr Idriss, I recently found Avène Retrinal and it doesn't irritate my skin, the way Olay retinol 24 does. I still not brave enough to use it on my neck as yet. Thanks for sharing your time with us. Have a great weekend😀
Hi Shereene, could you talk about an azelaic acid derivative - potassium azeloyl diglycinate, or PAD. This ingredient is becoming popular because it's more application-friendly compare to azelaic acid.🙏
Can you make a video of how to incorporate these products. I feel like you cannot use them all at the same time. Like AM and PM routine examples. Pretty please! Also, can retinols be used with peptides?
How do I choose products if I’m almost 40, seeing signs of aging skin, and still have acne? I’ve been using adapalene .1% for acne for awhile (several years), but I’m not thrilled with the acne results and it’s done nothing for aging. I recently started adding 2% salicylic acid on my non-adapalene days and the acne has gotten a bit better, but it’s not quite enough. And still nothing happening with the aging. My gut says switch to The Ordinary retinol & alternate that with 2% salicylic acid. I can’t tolerate niacinamide except around my eyes. Everywhere else gives me the worst breakouts. If anyones bern through this, please let me know your experience. (I watched the skincare in your 30s video, but it didn’t address this.)
Which retinol product would be good for acne and wrinkles? I just bought Differin for the hormonal acne i still get around my jawline but would also like a product I can benefit from for all over the face.
What do u recommend for someone who only gets tiny white heads around their mouth? I have hydradentitis supprativa along with acne inversa and am wondering if this is the cause. What should I do?
Thanks so much Dr Idriss. You have just save my skin!. I'm 50 years old and have never suffer with acne as a teenager, or as an adult, but 2 weeks ago i tried different, face wash and creams, different laundry soap and new supplements, all at the same time!, so something obviously didn't agree with my skin and i had my face absolutely on fire, covered in very sore red spots, and a couple of white heads, even to wash my face was painful... So i bought your recommended Avenno Calm and restore face wash and the moisturizing gel which helped so much to do exactly that!. Also swapped my garnier micellar water for the Bioderma micellar water (what a difference!) 😱 So now that my face is more calm, i'm treating some stubborn red marks with 4% b.peroxide, and i'm also using the Cicatricure which my skin is loving so much too. I also bought the Preparation H cream just in case the spots come back!🤭. After the summer holiday i'll start with the A313 cream on my new retinol journey. I still don't know what cause the rash/spots/acne whatever it was and just hoping it won't come back. But thanks to you, if it does, at least i'm prepared to tackle it with the wright products. Thanks again. Your knowledge is so impressive. So is your beauty.🌹
About to get the De La Cruz sulfur acne treatment 🚗🚗🚗 broke girls who want good skin love you queen. I'll reincarnate as a derm in the next life to honor you
Dear Dr. Idriss, could you kindly suggest a good cleanser and moisturizer , I am 48 years old and my skin is very oily. within half an hour of washing my face and using moisturizer and spf the oil starts to build on my face and I cannot put any makeup on as it will just melt :( thank you
I used a salicylic cleanser, then vitamin c, moisturizer and then spot treatment with benzoyl peroxide. My acne cleared up pretty well. But I still have some texture so I'm thinking of switching my vitamin c to retinol
Benzoyl peroxide and retinols shouldn’t be used at the same time. One is an oxidant and the other is an anti-oxidant. They will cancel each other out and be useless.
This was an awesome video. I have incorporated sulfur into my routine and it has made such a difference!! Can I combine salyclic, azaelic acid with suflfur?
I went back to a dermatologist for the first time in years in the winter. She has me on tretinoin, moisturizer and gentle cleanser at night, and a benzoyl peroxide wash and clyndamicine (sp) in the day. I feel like the benzoyl is making my blackheads worse somehow? Like the gunk in my pores is oxidizing more. I've had acne and oily skin for 23 or more years and I swear nothing has helped but oral doxycycline, which I was told you can't take all the time. I've accepted acne at this point, but nearing 40 the huge pores and blackheads definitely make me feel worse about myself. I just want smoother texture and clarity
If we shouldn’t use retinol around our mouths, how do we treat the breakouts there? Most of my acne is hormonal, around my mouth and on my chin and jawline.
I've had acne/pimples focused on my chin since I'm a teenager. I'm 32 now and recently cut all dairy/lactose from my diet. Everything almost vanished in 2 months. We should talk about this solution as well... dairy products are massive hormones disruptors.
When I started taking high doses of vitamin B, especially Biotin, to deal with my PCOS hair loss, my skin started breaking out. As soon as I stopped taking those supplements after a month, my skin calmed down within a week. Can higher doses of vitamin B / Biotin actually cause breakouts? And if they do, what do you suggest?
Yes yes and yes. I have ADHD and don’t get medication where I live, the only thing that improves my symptoms is B12 however it gives me nightmarish, painful, cystic acne. Ditto for Biotin which is great for my hair. So I guess it’s either a clear mind or a clear face/fuller hair
I am curious about what a routine should look like. so that one doesn't irritate their skin in the process. @Shareen Can you please present a sample routine.
Bonjour from Paris ❤ We’re hoping your skincare line will be available over here soon! Meanwhile, I would love you to talk about what you think of the at-home LYMA Laser, and other home devices, but especially that expensive truc! Merci en avance 😊
Hii Shereen 🥰 I was wondering if you might ship your products to Scandinavia in the future? I live in Sweden & I would love to be able to buy your vitamin C serum and other. I really appreciate you and everything you do. Thank you for helping to educate!
I already use EpiDuo, which has benzoyl peroxide and adapalene. Should I also include salicylic acid and azelaic acid into my routine? And if yes, how? Thank you so so much for your videos
Hello! Brazilian la roche posay has a 'High Tolerance' effaclar cleansing gel with an ingredient called caprylyl glycol. I've never seen anyone talking about it. It doesnt seem to have sal acid or other ingredients I usually associate with effaclar. Can you talk a bit about how it works?
Thank you, Dr. Idriss! I'm curious about Bakuchiol, is it actually a retinol substitute? Additionally, I just found out I'm allergic to benzoyl peroxide, which I've been using to control my acne since I was a teenager 😥 But now it gives me a rash around my eyes and on my neck. So I'm trying sulfur. Thanks for all the helpful info!
Love your videos! 💕💕Thank you so much for the info…Id like to know how to use adapeline and benzoil at the same time. Like which one goes first and how many minutes wait until u apply the other

Bonjour from Paris ❤ We’re hoping your skincare line will be available over here soon! Meanwhile, I would love you to talk about what you think of the at-home LYMA Laser, and other home devices, but especially that expensive truc! Merci en avance 😊
Hii Shereen 🥰
I was wondering if you might ship your products to Scandinavia in the future? I live in Sweden & I would love to be able to buy your vitamin C serum and other. I really appreciate you and everything you do. Thank you for helping to educate!
What cleanser can be used when not using benzoyl peroxide?
I already use EpiDuo, which has benzoyl peroxide and adapalene. Should I also include salicylic acid and azelaic acid into my routine? And if yes, how? Thank you so so much for your videos
Can you do a skin care routine with products for cystic acne combo skin?
Hello! Brazilian la roche posay has a 'High Tolerance' effaclar cleansing gel with an ingredient called caprylyl glycol. I've never seen anyone talking about it.
It doesnt seem to have sal acid or other ingredients I usually associate with effaclar. Can you talk a bit about how it works?
Can I use both benzoyl peroxide. And my differen gel ?
I think so because there’s a mix of the two called epiduo. You can also alternate them every other night if the mixture doesn’t sit well for you.
Thank you, Dr. Idriss! I'm curious about Bakuchiol, is it actually a retinol substitute? Additionally, I just found out I'm allergic to benzoyl peroxide, which I've been using to control my acne since I was a teenager 😥 But now it gives me a rash around my eyes and on my neck. So I'm trying sulfur. Thanks for all the helpful info!
Love your videos! 💕💕Thank you so much for the info…Id like to know how to use adapeline and benzoil at the same time. Like which one goes first and how many minutes wait until u apply the other
Dr Idriss. You talk about ingredients but can you talk about how and when to use each ingredient like a regimen.
The passion!!! Thank youu! ❤
Can you do a video on cystic acne.
