Honestly every dermatologist gives different advice and recommendations, feels like my head is going to explode. The only thing they agree on is to use spf and its the best anti-aging. So I guess I’ll be stocking up and set my phone to remind me to reapply every two hours.

A C thank you! I will. I just almost gave up on sunscreens because they all break me out. The only one that doesn’t is the vaseline moisturizer that has spf 15 which i’ve been using for years. but the spf is not strong enough
@@HarpersBazaar ✅✅ Please feature this specific dermatologist, on the regular. It is truly ideal to listen to a professional derm that is sharing the real-real. Myth busting & ensuring science based knowledge is shared is what I seek from dermatologists {board certified}.
Uthsavi Gowda I agree! I’d like to see her skin care routine as well! So far she is the only person I’ve seen that does not like retinol as an anti-aging step. I have been so in the fence about adding it to my routine, just bought some and now back on the fence.
She doesn't use retinol. She'll opt for prescription strength tretinoin and consistent use of sunscreen, both of which are the most evidence-based strategies to slow/prevent skin aging.
@@savanahlear990 I know! I've been using a retinol with squalane since October and I am happy with it. I started it specifically for the collagen production, as well as reducing pigmentation left over from acne. It's so confusing when you hear two totally different opinions from two professionals on the same product.
One of the many skincare trends is to "shave your face", removing dead skin cells and peach fuzz. How does this effect the skin's natural protection barrier? Can this be more harmful than we think it is?
Shaving is a form of exfoliation. So do apply your skincare routine and sunscreen afterwards. Men have been shaving their faces for decades, you aren't going to harm your skin.
I have sensitive skin - it reacts to rubbing, many different fragrance chemicals, certain sunscreen ingredients, several chemicals that are often present in high amounts in skin care (e.g: propanediol) and more. I shave my face. As long as I cleanse before and after, use a clean facial razor and moisturize after, my skin is totally fine. I've had a damaged skin barrier before - fixed it about 7 years ago, and shaving doesn't really affect it
I have done this years, and I haven't noticed anything negative. I do it in the morning in the shower, I use a gentle, soap-free, fragrance-free cleanser as my "shaving cream", and use only a one blade razor. Once I jump out of the shower, I then apply a fragrance-free cream all over my face while it is still wet. I don't use any active ingredients in the morning on my skin. If I feel like I am a bit "irritated", I'll skip a day or two. I think the key is to work your routine around the shaving, and give your skin a rest if it needs it. I think ideally doing it at night before bed would be good, it gives your skin a chance to recover. But I use tretinoin at night so I cannot.
I feel it can be problematic yeah. You would need sterile supplies, a very gentle touch, the right supplies for supporting your skin afterwards and sunscreen deffinately. The thing is, is that you are working with blades and they cause microteares in your skin. Btw the growing back thicker is a fairytail, but you can get bumps and the hair wont feel as soft anymore. Thats a big reason why I chose not to do this. Also the hair does not all grow at the same time. That happens in stages, so that might mean u have to even shave daily because the hairs will look darker because they havent been lit up by the sun yet. Personally I wont do this and just work on arias where needed with an exfoliant and a pincet. The hairs pulled out means also a longer lasting before it returns. Hope this helps.
i mean.. the national board of dermatology is on the payroll of certain brands, some that are not good for your skin. they also make millions on pumping fillers and botox into young girls face which causes incurable scarring and tissue damage....
i mean most of the information i see from derms and skincare 'experts' are exactly the same. plus the info these derms give differs a lot as well. take information with a grain of salt, no matter who it comes from
@@lauramolteni2431 no I get that not everything will be accurate or her opinions will be different . But I liked how she went into depth with things unlike other derms on the series.
Kim Mendes, personally, I can’t trust a dermatologist who believes you can get vitamin D through your sunscreen. The medical literature says your body needs UVB rays (the same ones sunscreen blocks) to synthesize vitamin D. So if you’re not getting it in your diet, you have to let your body make it naturally.
@@hotjanuary what medical literature did you read? can you give us a citation? And just because she says sunscreen or sunblock blocks UVB, it doesn't necessarily mean 100% blockage. There are still some UVBs that will hit your skin tissue despite wearing sunblock or sunscreen and these can help trigger the synthesis of previtamin D3. Anyways, I would definitely trust her more than someone who claims to have read medical literature without having any formal education about dermatology.
I'm really passionate about my skin and my routine and products. And these videos make me even more passionate. I really enjoy them! I love how every doctor has a different approach and different advice because we are all different and skin is a very individual and personal thing.
*See a video of a dermatologist* "EVERYONE SHOULD USE RETINOL. " *Buys retinol* *Watch another dermatologist video* " YOU DONT NEED a retinol, is BAD for the skin" *CRIES*
I have used Retin A RX for many years....my skin looks 15yrs younger than my age...BUT you must really really your sunscreen it makes you much more prone to sunburn and this damage I presume....so always always protect your face...I,live in the tropics so,wear hats constantly in addition to sunscreen.
She doesn't use retinol. She'll opt for prescription strength tretinoin and consistent use of sunscreen, both of which are the most evidence-based strategies to slow/prevent skin aging. Retinol ≠ Tretinoin/Retin A
My God, she is so well informed. She has an answer for everything and you can see that she is confident in her knowledge and she doesn’t stumbles over her words, she hardly says um, uh like anyone normally would. i am in love with this woman.
I LOOVEE HER, She talk's slow, so I really understood everything, the other derms talk very fast, and I have to process these scientific facts and terms quicker. I loved the sunscreen part, wish it was longer
Amber, sunscreen blocks UV rays. This means UVB rays (the wavelength needed for the vitamin D chemical reaction to happen) aren’t entering the body. Therefore, your body is not producing vitamin D. Hence, sunscreen doesn’t help in vitamin D production. It hinders vit D production. She’s also perpetuating a myth about physical sunscreens. Only about 5%-10% of the rays are reflected. The rest of them are absorbed and converted before they can reach your skin and do damage, just like in chemical sunscreens.
This was awesome. Glad she touched on retinol, because some of us have been desperately wanting to use it, but found it way too harsh. I am concerned about the story of apple cider vinegar on skin cancer... Seriously, people? 😕
I didnt have very harsh reaction to retinol but I get why You say that. Retinol is supposed to work that way You mentioned, it makes face puffy, red, peeling etc because it literally forces skin to regenerate. It is a "worse before better" situation so it needs a commitment. By the way retinol can be used every 2 day at the beginning for example if every day use is too much. Also retinol should be used in winter season because then You really want to avoid too much sun and SPF is a complete must. We don't want aby skin cancer here 😉 I am curious if there is some other option too 🙂
I love everything about this woman but I cannot agree that using a tinted moisturizer w/spf 30 is enough. You don’t use the same amount of tint as required for full spf 30 maximum protection (at least 1 teaspoon on the face) & I think it’s a must to use SPF 50+++ preferably mineral based under makeup EVERY DAY for true protection.
I love this series and I already love her ❤️ she looks amazing, skin cancer is way more command than you think, a family member got skin cancer here in San Diego California (yes it's mostly very sunny like today and we're in winter) and had 8 surgery's before it finally went away...so guys use you're SPF.
Hearing a professional say that you should use a cleanser that's "very chemical free" really pisses me off! What does it even mean?! Every skincare product contains chemicals, AHAs are chemicals, HA is a chemical, water is a freaking chemical, EVERYTHING IS A FREAKING CHEMICAL! Edit: her chemistry is really off omg
When most people talk about chemicals, they are referring to those that are artificially synthesized in labs. Since this is the norm, and she’s talking to such a wide audience, that is probably what she is referring to. I’m sure she knows that water is a molecular compound.
@@gldnkltz101 okay but imagine somebody who doesn't know much about skincare is being told to use a cleanser with no chemicals in it, what is he supposed to do? Especially in cleansers ingredients tend to have chemical sounding names or whatever, so this person would bot be able to find something that she refers to as chemical free. She could have simply said what ingredients to avoid, or which ones to use but she decided that saying chemical free was enough, which in my opinion is highly misinfotmational. If you are not a chemist you don't know which ingredients are made in a lab and which are not. Edit: also saying chemical free, natural etc. encourages people to go all natural or even only make things at home which could be risky, while many chemicals are actually safer because they have been tested by experts and have been formulated properly.
Also her explanation of the two types of sunscreens was WAY off. Physical sunscreen reflecting UV is a myth. Watch LabMuffins video on it. Here’s the study: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/phpp.12214
She probably does the lot, including collagen stimulating laser. That's what all the over 35 actresses do. You can look stunning for a long time if you've got the money.
danky yanky she is just stating the fact of the matter! There’s no shame in the game! We’re all going through the same struggle of slowly dying and fading away, and trying to preserve as much of what is familiar to ourselves!
danky yanky the reality is the amount of time and money and energy our favorite public figures and high fashion models, and celebrities, etc ... do have an unfair advantage because most of them don’t talk about their lifestyle style and many assume they are staying hot with the same routine
His is one of the best dermatologist reacts on this channel. Protecting yourself from the sun is one of the biggest preventative maintenance things we can do for ourselves, at least in my opinion. I used to spend tons of time in the sun or tan and not use sunscreen and i have burned A LOT and have scars on my back an shoulders from it and i regret it. I don’t know if they are actual scars but i have a lot of dark brown spots and everything from it.
I never wash my face in the mornings as I always cleanse well at night (with a gentle, sulfate-free, soap-free foaming cleanser from LRP), and i’m relieved to know this isn’t a bad thing to do!!
Exactly ! I was concerned that a dermatologist like her used that term , it took a lot of scrolling down the comment section to see someone mention it !
Her skincare line is also suspiciously full of essential oils, which are known irritants, on the guise of being "synthetic fragrance free". I would expect better from a dermatologist!
Sacha which proves that not all of them are when used at the right dosage like many studies have confirmed it on reputable public databases like Pubmed. She’s just a board certified dermatologist but also a surgeon specializing in skin cancer, she’s also behind more than 100 studies but what does she know?
She's wrong at 7:28. Mineral sunscreen filters work almost exactly the same as chemical ones, they only 'bounce' off about 5% of the rays. They absorb the rest and covert it to heat just like non-mineral filters.
This is a relatively new finding so it is understandable that she might not have been aware of. Here is the link to the study if anyone is interested onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/phpp.12214
I think derms like to speak from their training. I was also a little surprised when she said that. But I guess there's been a lot of more research done since she was in med school
She is so incredibly beautiful! I do not understand the appeal of all these hyper-filtered Instagram influencers that are so devoid of substance and superficial...to me this is beauty...natural and graceful with a great personality.
Oh my god I love this SO much Many good points. Especially about over-cleansing. I have people telling me off for not cleansing my face in the morning. I do my big skin care routine before bed. When I wake up, my skin is so nice, soft and calm. I don't want to disturb that, so I just leave it. I don't get breakouts or anything. Saves me time, too
ParadiseLost this is so me. A morning routine disturbs my skin. If my skin needs it I will just pat a light moisturizer and lightweight sunscreen. I am still trying to figure out the sunscreens because they do cause me to break out.
Nope. Smearing water around your face with no cleanser doesn't really do anything, it just dries your skin out. Mind you, I live in Scandinavia! It's freezing here. I can imagine if you live in a warmer climate, you maybe sweat when you sleep. In that case I would wash my face in the morning. I also have a very dirty job (I work on a cow farm), so my face gets dirty right from the start. So I wash my face after work, not before. I don't have problems with acne.
There are quite a few powder spfs that are made for reapplying .. specifically because of makeup ..I think the most known is colorscience ? They're definitely not cheap lol. I think I'm going to use a tinted SPF and powder to reapply during the day. ^^
I'm a Fitzpatrick 4-5, native American, oily, acneic skin, and I love an oil cleanser as my first cleanse. I think they're life changing. Then a specialized cleanser as my second. I have so many cleansers and always pick what I feel my skin needs. Master esthetician and barber in the state of Washington.
She isn't a self proclaimed skin expert guru with 1M followers but not scientific background but a board-certified dermatologist who understands the chemistry of natural ingredients (the first drugs were created from natural ingredients and today's drugs still mimick natural ingredients molecules). I follow a skincare formulator with a Phd in chemistry and she loves natural ingredients as well because she knows both synthetic and natural ingredients can be effective.
@@Candyp971 wdym by natural ingredients? bc there are plant extracts like honey that have a lot of benefits for your skin, but shes basically talking about putting food on your face
@@aries158 yes and food when it's healthy is what nourishes the body's cells, it has minerals and vitamins, enzymes, proteins, PH balancing factors that protects the organs by chemical reactions in a synergistic way so nothing crazy here.
There are some eye masks that are not as bad for the environment, you can dissolve them and use them as a serum after use, but its the exception, not the rule. Most of them are bad
THANK YOU!!! I hate retinols as well. My dermatologist prescribed them as a teenager. After about 6 months of use, my skin was clear, but getting there was a struggle. I NEVER want to go through that again!!!
Hold up though: I was with her until she said using homemade products INCLUDING COCONUT OIL. Coconut oil is highly comedogenic (clogs pores) and I've never ever heard of a dermatologist or aesthetician who would recommend putting it on your face. It can be helpful for the body and hair but certainly not the face.
I have never heard a derma that didn't mock the false comedogenicity ratings placed on oils. Comedogenicity trials that ranked coconut and other oils was not based on human skin. Almost every derm recommends oil cleansing unless you are fighting fungal acne..
susanne anique Agreed, the science behind the comedogenic scale in general isn’t reliable, but coconut oil in and of itself is known to be pore clogging. At least to the extent that recommending it broadly, to people who could be acne-prone, is problematic. And even though it could be fine for an individual, I don’t see why you’d need to make that rec when there are oils/oil products out there that are just as if not more effective and less likely to cause breakouts. Totally agree about oil cleansing, but that doesn’t specifically require coconut oil
@@glaciergang no there aren't, honey is made of chemicals too f.e., natural is a marketing tactic to get people to believe in the whole natural is better craze and pay more for often more irritating formulations
Daphnia 96 the comedogenic rating system is subjective (human skin isn’t equal to rabbit ears, everyone’s skin is different). whatever works for you is what works! i think it’s important to note going slow and paying attention is important & micelles water is to be washed off.
Get enough sleep,. Eat lots of veges and make sure you are getting enough iron, zinc and vitamin D etc. Drink lots of water. And don't stress about all the Dermatologist advice and your skin will look great 😁
I'm so glad you mentioned the eye cream. I'm 49 years old with dry skin but oily t-zone. My under eyes are dry and at times dehydrated so I do use a separate eye cream to hydrate my under eyes and I use all my fingers to gently massage the cream into my skin.
I hear this myth over and over and over again, the truth is that physical and chemical sunscreens work the same way (in fact they are both chemicals). The only difference is that physical or inorganic sunscreens reflect 5% of UVA/UVB rays, the other 95% is processed the same way as chemical sunscreens. Re micellar water, I can’t leave it on my skin (I use Bioderma) as it begins to itch, sting and go red and I consider my skin to be pretty tough or non-reactive. Michelle from Lab Muffin Beauty says you can leave it on too, she recommends Bioderma, but I just can’t.
Did a Dermatologist just use the term "chemical free" at 14:14? No. And I mean NO! There is no such thing as chemical free. Air is made of chemicals. Water, H2O, is a chemical. She should know better.
I am using Santeva Brightening Sunscreen SPF 50+. Finally, I have a sunscreen that I can use on my face that doesn't give me breakouts or a white cast that actually hydrates my skin a little. Highly recommend.
D C isn’t it amazing how much life stress ages us 💀 I gave birth, about to divorce my narcissistic husband, all in one year, and I’ve aged at least five years 🤣 god awful
Could you be more specific as to the anti-aging ingredients you recommend? You mentioned peptides but which type of products specifically would match the strength of retinol? You mentioned anti-inflammatories and things for the microbiome but I'm not sure what you're referring to. Thanks!
i know peter thomas roth has a moisturizer & eye cream that is aimed at maintaining a health microbiome (pre/pro biotic situation) along with biossance.
I was a little surprised that Dr. Marmur didn't mention the concept of a double cleanse when talking about oil cleansers. She said "one or the other." Shouldn't you basically always follow an oil cleanse with a water-based cleanser?
I have to disagree with the fact that using an tinted moisturizer with spf is enough. You have to use a certain amount of spf unless you get the full protection. You will never use the same amount in foundation, tinted moisturizer, etc.. So I would go always for an spf (you can skip moisturizer if your spf is heavy enough; there are also mattifying spf for oily skin types) wait a little bit and then continue with makeup.
I can't afford that much sunscreen! Plus in NZ it was recently revealed that most of the best selling sunscreens aren't actually living up to the claims they make.
The importance of sunscreen cannot be overstated. Sunscreen can ultimately be more cost-effective than painful procedures for removing photodamage and possibly skin cancer.☀Seeking shade and wearing appropriate clothing can be a helpful tip for protecting you skin. :)
Oh thanks for clarifying how to use eye cream! I have been confused about it for decades apparently. I have never put it all the way because I read somewhere to dab around the rim of the eye area which never felt adequate! Now I will try your way :-)
Elta MD is commonly recomend by dermatologists. But that doesn't mean its going to work for YOU unfortunately. :(( At least you can save some of your money and find a more affordable product:)))
I use prescribed retinol and I only flared up for 2 weeks! Now my skin if really soft and much nicer. I also use micellar water to take off my make-up and it is amazing!!! I always have blotchy, red skin after cleansing but with micellar water, it actually evens out my skin tone. I don't even want to wash my face after using it. Some sites recommend washing your face while others say it is perfectly fine to leave it on. I'm not actually sure what is best in that scenario but would love to know! I feel like my skin is nicer when I don't rinse it off.
This is so true, they all seem to be the same shade of orangy beige. As a pretty fair skinned girl, I even have trouble finding foundation, but finding the right shade of bb cream or cc cream or any tinted moisturizer is impossible.
Clara Schneider that’s not true. Have you tried Nars pure radiant tinted moisturizer? They have many shades from very fair to dark skin tones. Bioderma sensibio with spf 50 has also light shade.
Peas and carrots!! This was a super deep dive on sunscreen! I am surprised there wasn't a discussion on the difference between sunscreen and sun block. I do believe eye cream is a waste of money. However, it depends on what you want your eye cream to do. If you want to use an eye cream for dark circles, puffy eyes, wrinkles, vs. hydration, soothing, calming then I say buy the over-the-counter pricey jar for the former. Use at home remedies for soothing and calming. A cold cucumber and chamomile tea bag can do wonders. Dr. Marmur was a really cool dermatologist!
It would be great to see you and Dr Dray discuss the pros and cons of retinol and, more specifically, retin A (i.e., Tretinoin). Year ago there were cases published about skin thinning and damage through using these products, but this information seems to have turned around nowadays; with many dermatologists arguing that the damage to the skin via these products actually improves the skin's condition by increasing collagen turnover. This leaves me, as well as countless others, somewhat confused. Both arguments make sense. In addition, the question arises as to whether the skin develops a tolerance by using retin A or retinols and whether the potency needs to be increased to increase collagen production. How does it help and, likewise, how does it harm the skin? What other anti-aging ingredients cab be used to combat fine lines, enlarged pores, and skin blemishes associated with aging, and what's your skincare routine? As for peptides, I read a recent publication (I think it was on PubMed or Science Direct), which found that certain peptides can lead to enlarged pores. Lots of questions!
I used the micellar water from neutrogena and my face got all red and I felt like it was burning, tried 2 and gave it away. I used the L'oreal and the la Roche ones for 2 years and never had issues, so there may have some micellar water that are too harsh.
i changed from la roche to neutrogena and the first month was ok, but after that my face went mad and got breakouts. i went back to la roche and my skin is recovering. really awful couple of months just cause i wanted to save money. bad idea.
ANSWER THIS QUESTION PLEASE: There are some ingredients in sunscreens, like Oxybenzone which have been reported to be hormone disrupters from EWG. Is it worth it to put these dangerous chemicals on your skin? Are there any alternatives?
I wouldn't use them. Get mineral sunscreens. I get Badger with tint for my face. It is Non nano, meaning the zinc oxide molecule is big so doesn't get absorbed by your skin. Also cosmodegenic? Not sure spelling..but means doesn't clog your pores. There is no chemicals or even Titanium Dioxide...simply zinc oxide...same thing used on diaper rash. Good luck!
@@gunmetalbelair It is 30 SPF. Goes on kindof thick you have to rub it in. It is a very light tint..almost white but sheer..but there are other mineral sunscreens out there that are similar that may be better. That is just what I use. Not great for foundation if you need to cover up anything like sunspots...but you could put foundation over it..and at least it doesn't clog pores. Look on amazon for products and reviews. This one is like 12 dollars a bottle. Good enough for the price for me.
I loved this video. How do you feel about self-tanners? I stay out of the sun, but could not feel good about my white legs in the summer without self-tanning products. Any ones you feel good about? I am 67! My skin is nice, but I have white spots on my legs. Anything I can do to get the melanin back in those pesky spots?

There are still some UVBs that will hit your skin tissue despite wearing sunblock or sunscreen and these can help trigger the synthesis of previtamin D3. Anyways, I would definitely trust her more than someone who claims to have read medical literature without having any formal education about dermatology.
Can we do a series about dermatologist skin care routine?
There is one already
Yes.
i'd prefer that so much over celebreties spreading misinformation like bella thorne lol
Listening to her is like hearing an educational ASMR video. Great voice.
Please come back and talk about other anti-aging options ! That would be amazing.
I'm really passionate about my skin and my routine and products. And these videos make me even more passionate. I really enjoy them! I love how every doctor has a different approach and different advice because we are all different and skin is a very individual and personal thing.
*See a video of a dermatologist* "EVERYONE SHOULD USE RETINOL. "
*Buys retinol*
*Watch another dermatologist video* " YOU DONT NEED a retinol, is BAD for the skin"
*CRIES*
Retinol is not bad for your skin, it could be pretty irritating for your skin at first but that’s it. it’s just not for everyone.
I have used Retin A RX for many years....my skin looks 15yrs younger than my age...BUT you must really really your sunscreen it makes you much more prone to sunburn and this damage I presume....so always always protect your face...I,live in the tropics so,wear hats constantly in addition to sunscreen.
She doesn't use retinol. She'll opt for prescription strength tretinoin and consistent use of sunscreen, both of which are the most evidence-based strategies to slow/prevent skin aging. Retinol ≠ Tretinoin/Retin A
Have you seen the 70 year old RUclipsrs that have been 20 years on retinol??? Sometimes doctors don't k ow they are talking about.
@@dimasgrey Retinol and Retin A: Google images, retinol vs Retin A chemical structure. Same thing.
So elegant and graceful with great tips.
My God, she is so well informed. She has an answer for everything and you can see that she is confident in her knowledge and she doesn’t stumbles over her words, she hardly says um, uh like anyone normally would. i am in love with this woman.
I LOOVEE HER, She talk's slow, so I really understood everything, the other derms talk very fast, and I have to process these scientific facts and terms quicker. I loved the sunscreen part, wish it was longer
She doesn’t know what she’s talking about. She’s studied skin pathology, not chemistry. Her info about sunscreen and vitamin D is wrong.
@@hotjanuary you're dumb, watch Lab Muffin Beauty Science, she has a phd in chemistry, fking plebs can't even use google properly to fact check
@@hotjanuary Please explain why this is wrong info?
Amber, sunscreen blocks UV rays. This means UVB rays (the wavelength needed for the vitamin D chemical reaction to happen) aren’t entering the body. Therefore, your body is not producing vitamin D. Hence, sunscreen doesn’t help in vitamin D production. It hinders vit D production.
She’s also perpetuating a myth about physical sunscreens. Only about 5%-10% of the rays are reflected. The rest of them are absorbed and converted before they can reach your skin and do damage, just like in chemical sunscreens.
I love this woman! She's so kind and informative. Wonderful demeanor. I envy her patients :)
She looks and talks like she could easily fit into the royal family .
Gloria ikr. She has that aura lmao
Gloria Hell yes, unlike Me gain Markle.

is it a requirement for all female dermatologists to be really beautiful and elegant and classy?
This was an incredibly helpful version of Derm Reacts. She did a wonderful job explaining concepts while being respectful of the people & commentary.
This was awesome. Glad she touched on retinol, because some of us have been desperately wanting to use it, but found it way too harsh. I am concerned about the story of apple cider vinegar on skin cancer... Seriously, people? 😕
I didnt have very harsh reaction to retinol but I get why You say that. Retinol is supposed to work that way You mentioned, it makes face puffy, red, peeling etc because it literally forces skin to regenerate. It is a "worse before better" situation so it needs a commitment. By the way retinol can be used every 2 day at the beginning for example if every day use is too much. Also retinol should be used in winter season because then You really want to avoid too much sun and SPF is a complete must. We don't want aby skin cancer here 😉 I am curious if there is some other option too 🙂
D. M. K. Is retinol bad for eczema?
wow... this is seriously the most informative video i have watched on youtube. this has answered SO MANY questions ive had lol
Wow...she is so classy ✨❤
I love everything about this woman but I cannot agree that using a tinted moisturizer w/spf 30 is enough. You don’t use the same amount of tint as required for full spf 30 maximum protection (at least 1 teaspoon on the face) & I think it’s a must to use SPF 50+++ preferably mineral based under makeup EVERY DAY for true protection.
The FDA standar is 15 spf
Dr. Ellen Marmur's skincare routine plz.
she has her own skincare line
I love this series and I already love her ❤️ she looks amazing, skin cancer is way more command than you think, a family member got skin cancer here in San Diego California (yes it's mostly very sunny like today and we're in winter) and had 8 surgery's before it finally went away...so guys use you're SPF.
I need her to do an ASMR video, she´s so smooth-talking I almost fell asleep but kept myself awake cause I wanna get all that skincare knowledge!
She kinda reminds me of Gal Gadot when she smiles.
Erik Yes! Good eye
If she had brown hair, she would definitely look like her sister
She reminds me of Ellen Pompeo
Yes. I also think so
Hearing a professional say that you should use a cleanser that's "very chemical free" really pisses me off! What does it even mean?! Every skincare product contains chemicals, AHAs are chemicals, HA is a chemical, water is a freaking chemical, EVERYTHING IS A FREAKING CHEMICAL!
Edit: her chemistry is really off omg
Laura Molteni ikr so disappointing
When most people talk about chemicals, they are referring to those that are artificially synthesized in labs. Since this is the norm, and she’s talking to such a wide audience, that is probably what she is referring to. I’m sure she knows that water is a molecular compound.
@@gldnkltz101 okay but imagine somebody who doesn't know much about skincare is being told to use a cleanser with no chemicals in it, what is he supposed to do? Especially in cleansers ingredients tend to have chemical sounding names or whatever, so this person would bot be able to find something that she refers to as chemical free. She could have simply said what ingredients to avoid, or which ones to use but she decided that saying chemical free was enough, which in my opinion is highly misinfotmational. If you are not a chemist you don't know which ingredients are made in a lab and which are not.
Edit: also saying chemical free, natural etc. encourages people to go all natural or even only make things at home which could be risky, while many chemicals are actually safer because they have been tested by experts and have been formulated properly.
Also her explanation of the two types of sunscreens was WAY off. Physical sunscreen reflecting UV is a myth. Watch LabMuffins video on it.
Here’s the study: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/phpp.12214
EXACTLY!! It pissed me off so much. Even water is a chemical
Can I just say that you're the prettiest dermatologist I have ever seen so far? 💙
I wish the youtubers would take notes of this lady's way of speaking, her softness and elegance etc... she is amazing!
The skin on her face is FLAWLESS. Wow, now this is how I want to age! Beautiful woman.
She probably does the lot, including collagen stimulating laser. That's what all the over 35 actresses do. You can look stunning for a long time if you've got the money.
@@SincerityJ so what lmao
danky yanky she is just stating the fact of the matter! There’s no shame in the game! We’re all going through the same struggle of slowly dying and fading away, and trying to preserve as much of what is familiar to ourselves!
danky yanky the reality is the amount of time and money and energy our favorite public figures and high fashion models, and celebrities, etc ... do have an unfair advantage because most of them don’t talk about their lifestyle style and many assume they are staying hot with the same routine
His is one of the best dermatologist reacts on this channel. Protecting yourself from the sun is one of the biggest preventative maintenance things we can do for ourselves, at least in my opinion. I used to spend tons of time in the sun or tan and not use sunscreen and i have burned A LOT and have scars on my back an shoulders from it and i regret it. I don’t know if they are actual scars but i have a lot of dark brown spots and everything from it.
I never wash my face in the mornings as I always cleanse well at night (with a gentle, sulfate-free, soap-free foaming cleanser from LRP), and i’m relieved to know this isn’t a bad thing to do!!
It would be nice if she'd clarify what she meant by "very chemical free" (14:14). Like, nothing is chemical free.
Exactly ! I was concerned that a dermatologist like her used that term , it took a lot of scrolling down the comment section to see someone mention it !
Iris Madeleine Right! Like YOU are a chemical, Karen! 😂🤣
Her skincare line is also suspiciously full of essential oils, which are known irritants, on the guise of being "synthetic fragrance free". I would expect better from a dermatologist!
Sacha which proves that not all of them are when used at the right dosage like many studies have confirmed it on reputable public databases like Pubmed. She’s just a board certified dermatologist but also a surgeon specializing in skin cancer, she’s also behind more than 100 studies but what does she know?
Just free of too many active ingredients. I would say it didn't need explaining because cleansers is where you find most harsh chemicals
Can I just say, she's my favourite derm of them all. ❤️
SHE IS SO NICE! I COULD LISTEN TO HER FOREVER!
I NEED to see your skin regimen doc!! Please show us what u use and what you do.
she has her own skincare lin,e all I did was google it
This serie is just so good, please just keep it up! I love how they educate us!
She's wrong at 7:28. Mineral sunscreen filters work almost exactly the same as chemical ones, they only 'bounce' off about 5% of the rays. They absorb the rest and covert it to heat just like non-mineral filters.
Thanks for the info!
Adam Woods thanks for pointing that out!
This is a relatively new finding so it is understandable that she might not have been aware of. Here is the link to the study if anyone is interested onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/phpp.12214
Exactly!!!....a lot of bull they will tell you.
I think derms like to speak from their training. I was also a little surprised when she said that. But I guess there's been a lot of more research done since she was in med school
More videos with Dr Marmur!!! She's informative and elegant!!! We need more of her in this channel!!!
Wow she is gorgeous

Love her so so so much!! Yes to simple and gentle skincare!
When you forget theres other dermatologists on RUclips bc you're so used to watching Dr. Dray
Cruella De Vil She’s the only one I need. ☺️
Sam R totally agree, a doctor that isn’t in practice isn’t a doctor in my books.
Coolbabymama Dr dray doesn’t practice anymore? Mmm 🤔
She gives much better, more relevant and scientifically proven advice so I'd stick with dr.dray..This derm has some wacky ideas..
@Sam R This doctor recommends DIYs, coconut oil, and "no chemical" cleansers. Yeah, pretty wacky.
Oh my god I love this SO much
Many good points. Especially about over-cleansing. I have people telling me off for not cleansing my face in the morning. I do my big skin care routine before bed. When I wake up, my skin is so nice, soft and calm. I don't want to disturb that, so I just leave it. I don't get breakouts or anything. Saves me time, too
ParadiseLost this is so me. A morning routine disturbs my skin. If my skin needs it I will just pat a light moisturizer and lightweight sunscreen. I am still trying to figure out the sunscreens because they do cause me to break out.
In the morning you don't even wash your face with water?
Nope. Smearing water around your face with no cleanser doesn't really do anything, it just dries your skin out.
Mind you, I live in Scandinavia! It's freezing here. I can imagine if you live in a warmer climate, you maybe sweat when you sleep. In that case I would wash my face in the morning. I also have a very dirty job (I work on a cow farm), so my face gets dirty right from the start. So I wash my face after work, not before. I don't have problems with acne.
Yes more dermatologists videos like this, no RUclips self proclaimed skincare expert gurus without any scientific background, please.
Such a pleasant voice and demeanor!
I follow her on instagram. Dr Marmur is a great source of information and has a wonderful personality!! More videos with her please.
Such a lovely, classy, smart, beautiful woman. She has great skin. She keeps it simple.
Would have love to hear a little bit about those anti aging ingredients ....
Love love love this Derm! She touched almost all less focused topics, want more answers from her!
How can I reapply sunscreen when I am wearing full face of makeup? Is it going to work anyway when I just applied it in the morning?
Tarte makes a sunscreen powder that you can put over your makeup
You can use sun sticks if you have light makeup and many brands have different sun powders
@Vũ Uy but you would need to do that in doors because some people do it on the go and it sprays out behind them also you need to pat that in
There are quite a few powder spfs that are made for reapplying .. specifically because of makeup ..I think the most known is colorscience ? They're definitely not cheap lol. I think I'm going to use a tinted SPF and powder to reapply during the day. ^^
Theres really good setting sprays that have sunscreen protection in them. Look it up.
I'm a Fitzpatrick 4-5, native American, oily, acneic skin, and I love an oil cleanser as my first cleanse. I think they're life changing. Then a specialized cleanser as my second. I have so many cleansers and always pick what I feel my skin needs. Master esthetician and barber in the state of Washington.
i cant believe she agrees with the idea of diy skin care
Ikr
She isn't a self proclaimed skin expert guru with 1M followers but not scientific background but a board-certified dermatologist who understands the chemistry of natural ingredients (the first drugs were created from natural ingredients and today's drugs still mimick natural ingredients molecules). I follow a skincare formulator with a Phd in chemistry and she loves natural ingredients as well because she knows both synthetic and natural ingredients can be effective.
@@Candyp971 wdym by natural ingredients? bc there are plant extracts like honey that have a lot of benefits for your skin, but shes basically talking about putting food on your face
@@aries158 yes and food when it's healthy is what nourishes the body's cells, it has minerals and vitamins, enzymes, proteins, PH balancing factors that protects the organs by chemical reactions in a synergistic way so nothing crazy here.
@@Candyp971thats what happens when you eat it, dont expect your skin to swallow the avocado mask you put on your face
Love these videos. What a pleasant Dr to watch.
Aren’t constant throw away masks and eye mask bad for the environment?
Anna Bufton very!!!
Maybe theyre the kind of masks that come in containers?
it is so bad i cringe when i see some ytbers say they use like those small wipes individualy packed 😠😳😵
There are some eye masks that are not as bad for the environment, you can dissolve them and use them as a serum after use, but its the exception, not the rule. Most of them are bad
EMI V any idea what brand of eye masks offers such a product? that sounds really interesting!
THANK YOU!!! I hate retinols as well. My dermatologist prescribed them as a teenager. After about 6 months of use, my skin was clear, but getting there was a struggle. I NEVER want to go through that again!!!
Hold up though: I was with her until she said using homemade products INCLUDING COCONUT OIL. Coconut oil is highly comedogenic (clogs pores) and I've never ever heard of a dermatologist or aesthetician who would recommend putting it on your face. It can be helpful for the body and hair but certainly not the face.
I have never heard a derma that didn't mock the false comedogenicity ratings placed on oils. Comedogenicity trials that ranked coconut and other oils was not based on human skin.
Almost every derm recommends oil cleansing unless you are fighting fungal acne..
susanne anique Agreed, the science behind the comedogenic scale in general isn’t reliable, but coconut oil in and of itself is known to be pore clogging. At least to the extent that recommending it broadly, to people who could be acne-prone, is problematic. And even though it could be fine for an individual, I don’t see why you’d need to make that rec when there are oils/oil products out there that are just as if not more effective and less likely to cause breakouts. Totally agree about oil cleansing, but that doesn’t specifically require coconut oil
Its not pore clogging. Its just too fatty hence works great for dry skin but for other skin types not so much.
It can be helpful for removing waterproof makeup but it is extremely necessary to follow up imentitly with a good water-based clenser.
I have watched so many skincare videos and you have answered so many questions that I have never heard answered before. Thank you. Great job! Ok 👍
Okay but wym with less chemicals in a cleanser..? Like...everything is a chemical? Am I supposed to put my head in a vacuum?
Im crying 😂
I'm confused too
True!
Seraphina Senkmüller there are natural ingredients dude smh
@@glaciergang no there aren't, honey is made of chemicals too f.e., natural is a marketing tactic to get people to believe in the whole natural is better craze and pay more for often more irritating formulations
Wow! I am so happy I found this Dr. This info was great👍
why didnt she mention any of the other amazing anti-aging ingredients
I actually learned so much. I'm surprised how many of those myths I'd accepted as fact. Like sunscreen blocking all vitamin d.
so some dermatologist like micelar water, coconut oil and retinol and others hate it, what is the truth???
Daphnia 96 the comedogenic rating system is subjective (human skin isn’t equal to rabbit ears, everyone’s skin is different). whatever works for you is what works! i think it’s important to note going slow and paying attention is important & micelles water is to be washed off.
The truth is to do what works for you.
Get enough sleep,. Eat lots of veges and make sure you are getting enough iron, zinc and vitamin D etc. Drink lots of water. And don't stress about all the Dermatologist advice and your skin will look great 😁
@@vgraham2988 agree eating healthy foods and drinking enough water is all your skin wants
I'm so glad you mentioned the eye cream. I'm 49 years old with dry skin but oily t-zone. My under eyes are dry and at times dehydrated so I do use a separate eye cream to hydrate my under eyes and I use all my fingers to gently massage the cream into my skin.
you don't need to buy a separate eyecream. Any facial moisturiser does the job.
I hear this myth over and over and over again, the truth is that physical and chemical sunscreens work the same way (in fact they are both chemicals). The only difference is that physical or inorganic sunscreens reflect 5% of UVA/UVB rays, the other 95% is processed the same way as chemical sunscreens.
Re micellar water, I can’t leave it on my skin (I use Bioderma) as it begins to itch, sting and go red and I consider my skin to be pretty tough or non-reactive. Michelle from Lab Muffin Beauty says you can leave it on too, she recommends Bioderma, but I just can’t.
Lisa Hayes yesss i agree for both things. this myth is getting tiring and micellar water is kinda soapy water so i wouldn't leave it all over my skin
👏👏👏👏❤❤❤
I love this series and I love her voice and how she breaks things down
Huh, she has been my favourite so far. Very charismatic and handled internet assholery really well.
I never cared about sunscreen until I saw her amazing, glowing face.
Did a Dermatologist just use the term "chemical free" at 14:14? No. And I mean NO! There is no such thing as chemical free. Air is made of chemicals. Water, H2O, is a chemical. She should know better.
but she obviously meant synthetic as the words are interchangeable today and I know everything is a chemical.
I am using Santeva Brightening Sunscreen SPF 50+. Finally, I have a sunscreen that I can use on my face that doesn't give me breakouts or a white cast that actually hydrates my skin a little. Highly recommend.
What treatment does she use on herself for her skin around her eyes being so taut???
botox
Many Derms have access to treatments such as peels, lasers and injectable. I’m sure she has indulged in at least one or more.
Cosmetic surgery and such a highly paid job she doesn’t have to worry about paying the rent!
D C isn’t it amazing how much life stress ages us 💀 I gave birth, about to divorce my narcissistic husband, all in one year, and I’ve aged at least five years 🤣 god awful
These are almost all the questions I had about sunscreen! Thanks for making this video it helped me a lot :)
Could you be more specific as to the anti-aging ingredients you recommend? You mentioned peptides but which type of products specifically would match the strength of retinol? You mentioned anti-inflammatories and things for the microbiome but I'm not sure what you're referring to. Thanks!
I wondered the same thing.... I was waiting for some recommendations lol 🤷🏼♀️
She probably just wants people to buy whatever anti aging products she's selling in her own skin care line.
i know peter thomas roth has a moisturizer & eye cream that is aimed at maintaining a health microbiome (pre/pro biotic situation) along with biossance.
Mother Dirt skincare is the best on the market for microbiome.
@@Tina-9-is-3x3 she has her own skincare line with peptides, her website is posted under the video
I was a little surprised that Dr. Marmur didn't mention the concept of a double cleanse when talking about oil cleansers. She said "one or the other." Shouldn't you basically always follow an oil cleanse with a water-based cleanser?
I love you woman. So much knowledge in one video
Her voice is soooo soothing!
I have to disagree with the fact that using an tinted moisturizer with spf is enough. You have to use a certain amount of spf unless you get the full protection. You will never use the same amount in foundation, tinted moisturizer, etc.. So I would go always for an spf (you can skip moisturizer if your spf is heavy enough; there are also mattifying spf for oily skin types) wait a little bit and then continue with makeup.
I love her approach to skin care. It is much less fussy!
I can't afford that much sunscreen! Plus in NZ it was recently revealed that most of the best selling sunscreens aren't actually living up to the claims they make.
The importance of sunscreen cannot be overstated. Sunscreen can ultimately be more cost-effective than painful procedures for removing photodamage and possibly skin cancer.☀Seeking shade and wearing appropriate clothing can be a helpful tip for protecting you skin. :)
Oh thanks for clarifying how to use eye cream! I have been confused about it for decades apparently. I have never put it all the way because I read somewhere to dab around the rim of the eye area which never felt adequate! Now I will try your way :-)
She endorsed coconut oil and disregarded retinols. Also Elta Md sunscreen broke me out like crazy. I’m questioning her advice. But she has great skin.
Elta MD is commonly recomend by dermatologists. But that doesn't mean its going to work for YOU unfortunately. :(( At least you can save some of your money and find a more affordable product:)))
I use prescribed retinol and I only flared up for 2 weeks! Now my skin if really soft and much nicer. I also use micellar water to take off my make-up and it is amazing!!! I always have blotchy, red skin after cleansing but with micellar water, it actually evens out my skin tone. I don't even want to wash my face after using it. Some sites recommend washing your face while others say it is perfectly fine to leave it on. I'm not actually sure what is best in that scenario but would love to know! I feel like my skin is nicer when I don't rinse it off.
Tinted SPF moisturisers are never the right shade, can we talk about that and she didn't actually answer the question?
This is so true, they all seem to be the same shade of orangy beige. As a pretty fair skinned girl, I even have trouble finding foundation, but finding the right shade of bb cream or cc cream or any tinted moisturizer is impossible.
Clara Schneider that’s not true. Have you tried Nars pure radiant tinted moisturizer? They have many shades from very fair to dark skin tones. Bioderma sensibio with spf 50 has also light shade.
Peas and carrots!! This was a super deep dive on sunscreen! I am surprised there wasn't a discussion on the difference between sunscreen and sun block. I do believe eye cream is a waste of money. However, it depends on what you want your eye cream to do. If you want to use an eye cream for dark circles, puffy eyes, wrinkles, vs. hydration, soothing, calming then I say buy the over-the-counter pricey jar for the former. Use at home remedies for soothing and calming. A cold cucumber and chamomile tea bag can do wonders. Dr. Marmur was a really cool dermatologist!
She's the best dermatologist i've seen on this channel 😇
✅✅ Absolutely !!
It would be great to see you and Dr Dray discuss the pros and cons of retinol and, more specifically, retin A (i.e., Tretinoin). Year ago there were cases published about skin thinning and damage through using these products, but this information seems to have turned around nowadays; with many dermatologists arguing that the damage to the skin via these products actually improves the skin's condition by increasing collagen turnover. This leaves me, as well as countless others, somewhat confused. Both arguments make sense. In addition, the question arises as to whether the skin develops a tolerance by using retin A or retinols and whether the potency needs to be increased to increase collagen production. How does it help and, likewise, how does it harm the skin? What other anti-aging ingredients cab be used to combat fine lines, enlarged pores, and skin blemishes associated with aging, and what's your skincare routine? As for peptides, I read a recent publication (I think it was on PubMed or Science Direct), which found that certain peptides can lead to enlarged pores. Lots of questions!
I used the micellar water from neutrogena and my face got all red and I felt like it was burning, tried 2 and gave it away. I used the L'oreal and the la Roche ones for 2 years and never had issues, so there may have some micellar water that are too harsh.
i changed from la roche to neutrogena and the first month was ok, but after that my face went mad and got breakouts. i went back to la roche and my skin is recovering. really awful couple of months just cause i wanted to save money. bad idea.
Garnier micellar water was a no no to me. Tried it several times, it makes skin burn and then breakout
Flávia F Are you a board certified dermatologist? 🙃
You're supposed to remove cleansing water apparently. It still has surfactants present so it's better to remove it with warm water.
@@de341f6 I always did, not with warm water because is very hot in here already.
I feel like this wonderful woman has EVRYTHING FIGURED OUT so perfectly in her life
ANSWER THIS QUESTION PLEASE: There are some ingredients in sunscreens, like Oxybenzone which have been reported to be hormone disrupters from EWG. Is it worth it to put these dangerous chemicals on your skin? Are there any alternatives?
I wouldn't use them. Get mineral sunscreens. I get Badger with tint for my face. It is Non nano, meaning the zinc oxide molecule is big so doesn't get absorbed by your skin. Also cosmodegenic? Not sure spelling..but means doesn't clog your pores. There is no chemicals or even Titanium Dioxide...simply zinc oxide...same thing used on diaper rash. Good luck!
Suzanne awesome thank you! How’s the coverage on the tint?
@@gunmetalbelair It is 30 SPF. Goes on kindof thick you have to rub it in. It is a very light tint..almost white but sheer..but there are other mineral sunscreens out there that are similar that may be better. That is just what I use. Not great for foundation if you need to cover up anything like sunspots...but you could put foundation over it..and at least it doesn't clog pores. Look on amazon for products and reviews. This one is like 12 dollars a bottle. Good enough for the price for me.
@@suzanne202 Thank you!!
I loved this video. How do you feel about self-tanners? I stay out of the sun, but could not feel good about my white legs in the summer without self-tanning products. Any ones you feel good about? I am 67! My skin is nice, but I have white spots on my legs. Anything I can do to get the melanin back in those pesky spots?
I love self tanner! It is such a great solution compared to sun tanning, and much healthier too considering melanoma in women is extremely common on the legs!! 😀
