I cannot express how much I LOVE that they make product recommendations that are in “normal human” price ranges.
Usually the really high end stuff is the snake oil. The most effective ingredients are usually medicines, which are normally not that expensive. Once you start introducing golden flakes or whatever the celebrities are peddling, it gets expensive.
Most overpriced products are actually shit and is just priced so high because of the brand.
Its the ingredients that matter in a product.
@@intelligenthuman3262 some of the cheaper products that have the same ingredients may not have the same quality of ingredients tho, and the product may not work as well because the formula isnt as advanced. Ingredients are very important tho. Good skincare does not have to be expensive
Thicken the skin? Under eyelids. I mean doesn’t that make you look older?
Good rule of thumb is that no skin product that works should cost more than $30 for a 30 day supply, and even that is kind of high if you ask me.
video notes
Excuse the spelling.
1. are vitamin A derivatives (adapalene, tretnoid, retinol)
2. anti-acne, improves hyperpigmentation, improves appearance pores, anti aging, improves skin texture
3. retinol is less strong and irritating then tretinoid
4. picking the right retinoid-based off of strength
1. retinol - good for sensitive skin
2. tretinoid more effective then OTC products. not necessarily more irritating.
3. retinol, adapalene, retanal, tretinoid, zaratine - level of irritation least to most.
4. use differen gel adapline for acne.
5. use
1. start low then go high.less irritating option. so skin has gotten used to it.
2. start with using it every other day. skin needs time to adapt
3. flaking and irritation is expected, which means it is working. peak of irritation is 2-3 weeks. after the skin will calm down and be less irritating. skin might get worse b4 better.
4. after a month or so start doing it every day. then see how u do. then u can increase to twice a day IF u want/can.
5. if you have sensitive skin then start with every 3rd night for 1 month -> every 2nd night for 1 month -> then every night for 1 month
6. if you have sensitive skin then moisturizer first then apply retinoid and then moisturize again.
7. use small amount, pea-size amount.
8. after cleansing and then moisturize right away.
9. protect sensitive areas. if your eye area is sensitive then apply moisturizer on eye lid before apply retinoid. only if that area is sensitive for you. if it is not then apply retinoid first due to benefits.
10. time: stick with it. time till benefits anti-aging 3-6 months, hyperpigmentation 3 months.
thank you for this
thank you so much!!!
Thank you, is it okay if I stick with it more than 6 months like a year?
You forgot that they are not dating each other
thank you 😭😭😭😭 I was gonna study this video like an exam and write them down
As a Family Physician may I just say you guys are great! Your blog is funny and informative, you relate well with each other and your audience. I find myself critiquing your information from a medical standpoint and every video convinced you practice evidence based medicine and are top-notch dermatologists. As a clinician with 30 + years practicing medicine, all I can say is “keep doing what you’re doing!”
I am a new esthetician at a dermatology office, and this info is so invaluable. Thank you for sharing w the masses! 🙏
the chemistry of retinoids has nothing on the chemistry between u two 😻
Hahaha 🤣
Seriously, u two are a super cute couple!
@@donatelloplayback4555 dr shah has a wife
@@donatelloplayback4555 they’re not dating
@@alli1docious lmfao anyone can have a wife and still be gay
“And we’re not dating.” 😂 thank you fir clarifying cus we were all wondering
OMG I totally thought they were a couple! Dat chemistry!
Mmmm don’t believe it 😍❤️the chemistry is just too much
@@lonagwegwe i agree lmaoo
😂😂😂
whattttt but they really make a cute couple🥲
Your videos are great. So balanced, such great advice and it a user-friendly and fun way. Thank you both for the work you do. I'm so impressed by your delivery.
You two Dermatologists! Love watching your videos, you both seem to have so much fun together and yet are informative so one can make really good decisions. As a RN, and having worked with so many DOUR docs, you're both a breathe of fresh air! So much better in forming relationships with patients and with staff.
For myself, I learned more about retinols and acne solutions for over the counter. Not everyone can afford expensive prescriptions and formulations. You make products accessible for the average person. Thank you so much! I look forward to seeing more of your videos and playful bantering. Keep it going!!

Two smokin hot doctors giving skincare tips? I struck GOLD.
Objectifying men isn't cool.
Haha I agree, they are hot 🔥😉
@@sammaree7933 They only have eyes for each other!
Gold, Silver and Bronze. Damn.
@@bellj753 yep, I see those googly eyes to each other. I don't even care. They're not that hot.
Love your videos and how earnest you guys are. Honesty, humour and knowledge are what I see from here. Pls stay this way and don’t get too commercialised by endorsing products.
You mentioned Differin in a video I watched just before going to the US. (Canadian) I had no idea I could get it prescription free. Having used it under a dermatologist’s supervision as a teen and then moving and no longer having a dermatologist as an adult - I was so excited I came home with three bottles. Just a week later (layering it under moisturizer and barely putting any on as I remember how hard it is to start) skin pigmentation from old acne is going away and my hormonal acne is finally calmer. You guys just made a huge difference in my quality of life. I hope this comment makes your day!
Can we use Salicylic acid Cleanser with it?
ye it is really good with salicylic acid, but take care if you got sensitive skin@@user-xu3hp3bg8h
No, it tends to be very irritating when combined at the same time. You could use SA in the morning and your Retinol in the evening@@user-xu3hp3bg8h
As a medical student I am really impressed by your goal of spreading true information about skincare and as someone who is into skincare I really appreciate the knowledge. I would love to see a video about repairing the skin's moisture barrier and one about the differences between dehydrated and dry skin. Thank youu
Thank you for the suggestion! And for your support :)
Me too! I went whole hog with a too strong retinoid and it basically ate my face. Barrier repair desperately needed.
Me too!😀
@@pinkfiction1406 😂
Hi doc can we apply your favourite skin fix barrier moisturizer after applying tretinoin
I’m pregnant so thank you for NOT forgetting about us !!!
Right, I watched the whole thing and at the end was like, okay guess not! Currently nursing my newborn so retinoids will have to wait.
as dubayy said and I will tell you as an actual M.D. GS there are absolutely zero backed studies saying pregnant women can't and shouldn't use. In fact, studies have shown it has no effect on pregnancy. As dubayy a well-known Doctor has stated above, many things they have said in this video are opinion, not fact, and incorrect
You two are my first stop when I want to know anything about skin care I'm 61 and think you never stop learning thank you for your honest approach 😁
Your videos are on point, step by step and I would say 15min is a reasonable time frame. Really appreciate the details and in-depth explanation.
Skincare advice without mid-roll ads. I’m in love.
Thank you very helpful!
One learns by enjoying their chemistry, down to earth, funny, not pretentious, not loud, It’s a pleasure to watch them
I appreciate their knowledge and back and forth humor.
I much prefer this more down to earth format than to the advertisements and clickbait
As an aesthetician myself, I’ve learned so much by watching your channel. I really really appreciate all the informations, great advice, tips…etc…
Thank you thank you thank you ❤.
This was awesome!! Just about to start my Retinoid skin care routine and this was so very helpful. Love your enthusiasm and personalities! The set up is spot on btw!
I'm just getting ready to start and am binge watching everything that I can find on the subject, do you mind sharing how your journey has been, are you still using it?
Thank you for this video. Also thank you to Dr. Shah for being honest about his skin care goals & skin care journey, from dewy skin dreams to pimple patches. You two really humanize dermatology
LOVE your new set up, You BOTH are doing Great!! You guys make perfect sense, i love how honest you are, it's what we all need from skincare; Honesty! the audio is great and you guys dont talk to fast because you go back over everything to simplify what you just said. Would love to see more pop up visuals explaining some things that you's are talking about like the retinoid umbrella diagram that you did. really helps paint the picture for us at home with what we should be doing :) :)
this is absolutely one of the best channels i have ever found in my entire life. Thanks a lot to both of you, i could say that i now have a better knowledge to really know what could benefit me and what i should avoid using. My dermatologist is just giving me some creams for acne scars without explaining or at least telling me if i might or not get results. BUT NOW i actually know A LOT thanks to you! the set up and everything is alright you guys talk with normal speed lol and like the content is getting better where you provide info that could solve common issues related to skin and all. Once again, thanks a lot and now im omy to get some RETINOL can't wait to try it out, ps: i will be careful:)
You guys are great! And funny. You both have great energy together. Thank you for being here. I am 41 and Im just now starting to educate myself on skin care.
So thankful that you are more about education then “sales and promotions” Thank you for keeping it real ❤️ and love your friendship with each other!!
"And we are not dating...each other..." Just what everyone wanted to know 😂
LOL! I stumbled across these two and I was like...Ohhh that Dr. Maxwell, he's so cute but I bet he's gay! LOL!! jk I'm married too. Cant be looking but he is def too cute.
Glad this got cleared up. Lol
Yes, it was the gazing into each others eyes and giggling that left that impression.....doesnt matter, wouldnt matter if you were a couple...youd just be the most adorable gay couple I had ever seen...so,instead you are just two adorable guys doing great work singing the praises of the miracle that is Retin A....I am a true beliver at 73, having first used it at 33!
Dr. Shah is married to a woman, just in case anyone is curious.
@@dannyn5930 🧐
U guys kill me, ❤️ how funny y'all are!!!
And I get great advice to improve my skin care routine. Thank y'all for all the helpful tips to Prevent me from goofing up my routine. Keep up the great tips/ content because anytime I have questions concerning skin care and products to use and to avoid, I always look up my questions in DOCTORLY!!!
Thank you for the education, this is invaluable advice and I'm truly appreciative that you take the time to do it, so a big thank you to you both.
The dynamic between the two of you is electric and organic. Keep making content, please!!!
You two have helped me more in 55 years than any of my dermatologists in the past!!! I truly appreciate your information and advise. You 2 rock!!! ❤️😘
The sandwich method saved my life (with life I mean my face)!! my doc said not to use it like that but after watching this video I tried it and it worked! I finally started seeing results without any severe irritation! Don't stop making these videos!
Great video! Great info and the chemistry between you is fun. You balance wisdom and expertise with humor. ❤
Thanks for educating so many of us in the big ocean of Beauty Skin Care. I'm glad you guys make it simple, professional but fun so people can remember through pictures too. Sound, set and lighting looks 👌
Thank You
U two are Great together!
😁🤗👍😘😊
I’m an avid skincare junkie.. And I follow a lot of doctors and skincare Gurus.. but the way you create and present the content.👌it is comprehensive still precise,delivered in a light fashion.. you guys just blew my mind!! 🙏😘
I recently found you guys and I love all the videos I've seen so far! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. I just recently started a skincare routine for myself and your videos are a HUGE help.
You guys are so funny! You give excellent skin care advice. I love the break down of the different products and what ingredients are most beneficial. I’m learning a lot😊. Thank you!
I really appreciate the information, I’m in my mid 20s and addressing hyperpigmentation as I start retinoids. I have watched a few videos now and just bless the both of you for sharing so much information and enjoying what you do!
You forgot tip #6: Wear sunscreen. Skin will be super sensitive.
Only during the adjustment period.
@@Minerva-fp1zx BS all the time. You will damage all you collagen so what would be the use ?
@JD Yes, retinoids should only be used at night. Sun exposure actually reduces their efficacy, so you want them working while the sun isn't out and you're sleeping. They also make your skin somewhat more sensitive to the sun (consistently, not just right after using), so sunscreen use is even more important than it is normally.
Great videos! I like your energy and how you deliver the information. Very easy to follow. Keep up the great work!
Love your videos! I appreciate that you share what you and your clients experience. I've been reluctant to try anything other than a simple cleanser, but now see that I need to be doing much more. Thank you!
I really appreciated the umbrella visual and learning all the names in the "family"!
I love how you always educate on how and when to use a product. Thank you for your amazing informative videos
I love the way you guys educate us about all this topics, thanks 🙏🏼
You guys are so amazing and helpful! Thank you so much for the work that you do, and I know I can trust what you say in your videos, because they are reliable. So much info packed into your videos, it would be helpful to shorten them. 🙃
I actually started once a week for a first month, then 2x a week for second month, 3 times a week on a third month until my saw my skin actually doing well without irritation :) clue is to be patient and not to rush it :)
And how often in a week are you exfoliating?
@@Betrie once a week or every two weeks as retinol is already exfoliating on its own, so I don't want to overdo it.
Thank you so much for making these videos!!! I feel like for the first time I can get two doctor's guidance on what to do with my skin. It's fabulous to be so informed.
Only recently discovered this channel and am now binge-watching. These guys are great! The only thing I would have added to this is reinforcing that people MUST use sunscreen when using retinoids. Of course people should be using sunscreen religiously anyway, but it's hugely important when using retinoids (or any actives that are exfoliants). Living in Australia makes you really conscious of this. Will carry on bingeing this channel! ❤
yes that aussie sun is 🤨🤨
thats why you should only use it in your pm skincare routine
This is exactly why is use them and night! Don’t wanna mess with the aussie sun, especially in Perth 😂
Saaaame
Which brand of retinoids do u use in Australia
This has helped me so much!! I started using retinol and my once huge pores are slowly shrinking! The occasional zit I get is gone in about 2 days now. Overall healthier looking skin.
Loved the fruit analogy! It really cleared up my confusion about retinoids and how they relate to retinols. I live for info graphics, so thank you!
So grateful for the content you put out!!! This has been so helpful for me as I’m coming off birth control and my acne has been horrible! Thank you!!
Thank you! I’m not so nervous now! I am beginning to get a bit blotchy and red spots but I’m gonna push through! Thank you!
Thank you for this video!!! I have been using retinoic acid for 8 months now, my skin changed drastically!!
I love Dr. Maxfield’s honesty. So refreshing
You two are doing a great job. I’m learning so much and am very thankful for your effort.
Love you, doctors! You are such a pleasure to watch. Perfect mixture of humor and very valuable information
Love how you interact together and you provide great info!!!
Thank you so much for this ! this is crazy bc I was literally thinking about how much I wanted to start a retinoid routine last night and this morning its on my recommended. Such a helpful vid :)
I’m going to start my retinoid today and I’m so grateful that I stumbled upon this VERYYYYY helpful video. Coming from the trusted dermatologist themselves. Thank you both and please keep on making such helpful and insightful videos. We all look forward to it. 😘
Where did u get it ? (:
@@mp0122 prescription
heyy are u through with purging??
Howd it go
Absolutely love your tips and tricks !! I am now on a three times a week tretnoin and three times over the counter olay retinol… I am dewy and I am loving it 🙏 thanks Docs sending love from India ❤️
Can Tretenoin help melasma? I’ve been using it for a few months now hoping it would help but not noticing any improvement. Thank for your videos.
3 months....*calculates* ok so if I start now..by Summer I should have clear glowing skin. Got it. ✅
I was thinking the same thing! I recently started using the Sunday Riley retinoid and watched this for more information of what I was getting into (whoops) but retinoid is my new holy grail and their information has been enlightening 🤣
@@guitrluvingchic8 have you had any side affects? Most vids I watch say your skin will start purging... starting my retinoid journey this weekend.
@@blessngifted slight purging and slight dermatitis. Nothing crazy and my hormonal acne didn’t pop up this month so I’ll take it!!!😁😁😁
@@guitrluvingchic8 ooooo so glad you mentioned hormonal acne. Thats my biggest issue right now. Ok I've got to start 😆
omg mee
Used Retain A when I was a teen for acne. Worked great, now that I'm much older, works great for crows feet, dark circles and under eye bags. Insurance doesn't cover it but it's worth every penny!
My favorite dermatologists - you guys are so helpful!!! Thank you.
I adore you two! I’d love to see a full video of outtakes every once in awhile. 🥰
Seriously the best duo ever!! I’d love to hear both of your experiences in medical school and what it was like pursuing dermatology - or a video showing “a day in the life of a dermatologist.” Absolutely adore your channel!
Thank you so much Ashlyn!! That's a great suggestion and we are actively in the process of making that video!!
So happy this video popped up on my recommended! I’m currently looking at getting a retinoid and defiantly needed this info. Also, you guys do a great job at explaining everything in a fun way. Thanks!☺️🤍
Demonstrating application and/or the amounts of products would be helpful!! Y'all are great!
I am currently on prescription pills and retonaid and I have literally only been on this for 1 week and I already see results. The pills are fighting the under acne and the retanoid is helping the surface It’s great!
what pills please?
I'd love to learn more about taking care of the skin on the neck and chest, like whether we should use the same products as on our face or if we should dilute them. Would also be nice to know what can be done to prevent and minimize chest wrinkles for us ladies 😭 Thanks for all your hard work, guys!
To prevent chest wrinkles you need to stop letting the sun hit your chest... and wear sunscreen whenever you go outdoors... even on your chest!
Hi I just discovered you and I've been binge watching. Thank you so much for your recommendations and your time! I'd love a video about vitamin C, and what products can and cannot mix! Thanks again! You both are lovely!!
Great video! I’m licensed in cosmo and I work in Sephora and I love being able to educate clients even better!! Thank you 🖤
just started using the CeraVe Resurfacing Retinol serum and looked to this video as a refresher of things to look out for. I appreciate the realness, the thoroughness, and the well-worded explanations surrounding this amazing skincare ingredient!
if u don’t mind me asking what’s ur routine ur doing with the cerave retinol im interested on getting it as well and would like to know how ur incorporating it
@@wydmatt7294 no problem at all! sorry for my late response - I literally just got a notification of your reply today when I'm an avid user of RUclips, and I see that I'm already a month late... please don't take offense!
I chose the CeraVe resurfacing retinol because it was one of the recommended starter retinoid products from the Doctorly channel. it has a really low concentration of retinol, which is suitable for people with more sensitive skin like myself, so they can start more gently.
I just followed the rule of threes from Dr. Shah: I started by applying it once every three nights for the first month, then once every other night for the second month, and then every night as tolerated for the third! I sandwich my retinol application between two applications of lightweight moisturizer for the first few weeks and also slowed my use of other actives like glycolic acid until after the first few weeks. there have been some tingling involved, but I'm doing well on it so far! I'm going into my third month while on it with no obvious, perceivable improvements yet (I should take comparison photos) but I'm keeping at it! good luck!
@@yuzufrio love this. What moisturizer do you use?
I've stayed away from retinoids because of concern over sensitive skin. Thanks for helping me feel more confident in moving forward in adding it to my skin care routine.
Iove the calm introspective comments by Dr. M & N
I have ADHD and I always watch u guys until the end and I never get distracted so u guys are doing an amazing job with explaining everything
Y’all are genuinely such a credit to my RUclips algorithm 🙏🏻
Love watching these two. They make sense of the crazy amount of skincare information out there! They make the info easy to digest to which is just as important.
Thank you for the easy to understand information. Much appreciated. Your own skin is your best advert. Your format is clear & fun. The set is perfect a perfect non-distracting backdrop to the two main protagonists - easy to watch & easy to understand speech & language for any English-speaker & no ego indulgent & time-wasting tangents. Great atmosphere created by the two of you. Very enjoyable
Amazing! Thank you, I just got my first tretanoin script today. I'm 35yo just waiting to wean my nearly 3yo then my retinoid is my reward! ❤️
Hahahahahah I just love you guys! I'm so glad I stumbled upon you, you explain everything thoroughly and the way a non-dermatologist person can actually understand.
Please keep up the good work, and thank you so much for everything, I definitely feel like y'all are not gatekeeping information for your own benefits as dermatologists and it shows!
Would you guys be able to do a video on layering/scheduling actives?
This video was so watchable and easily explained the topic! Loved this ☺️
I'm 60 and just started using Retiniod nine months ago. I've recently noticed improvement in the texture of my skin. I still have wrinkles, but they look better, if that's possible. Lol. I'm happy with the results.
I can't think of any tips to make your videos better. Its entertaining watching you two cute doctors, and your videos are very informative. I bet your moms are very proud of you. 🙂
Hello how's your skin now?
This has been so helpful as I'm trying to get back on retinoids in my routine 😄
I really loved how you guys incorporated everything in a very brief vedio , definitely a thumbs up 😊
I would like to see a video on eye creams, and caring for sensitive crepey skin around the eyes.
Me as well! Please! I was always under the impression they were unecesary.
Pleeaaase!♡ I suffered from eyelid eczema and it ruined some parts of my skin :(((
yes please!
Get your hands on Naos atoderm intensive eye cream. It’s a game changer
Me too
Can you each show your own personal skincare routines? Us guys would like to know and it would help us out a lot!!
That's a great idea and we will come out with a video soon!
Yes as!
Yes please
@@Doctorly Yes please
Yes please!
Dr. You two are fun to watch and very informative. Straight to the point. New subscriber here.
Loved the fruit analogy, really cleared up the confusion about retinol for me. Great video. :)
I wish this video had been around when I started using retinol. It has the exact advice I was looking for - there is so much misinformation out there, it makes a huge difference hearing it directly from dermatologists!
Can u please tell me what to apply after retinoid?
@@anonymouslyme8696 I use Hyaluronic acid (The Ordinary) first and then my moisturiser, but you can just go straight in with a moisturiser.
I was just listening, relaxing and trying to learn about retinoids then you two dropped a huge bomb 💣 of “we are not dating” and I was like hallelujah!! Madre de dios!! God had shown mercy on us women😊😊😊
Sorry to break your heart, they’re both married 😉
Thank you for the helpful tips! I’m starting Tretinoin and all your tips are super beneficial 👊😊
Thanks for the tips! I’ve started with differin gel and it’s been awesome, the sesitivity wasn’t that bad, my skin texture feels amazing (I’ve been on it for a month) i do the sandwich. Anyway thank you guys for your videos I truly enjoy them and I appreciate the education in them too :p
Btw. I totally need a video addressing your story as friends and co-creators, your chemistry is awesome ❤
How many times a week u are using!?
You both have such perfect skin. I'm realizing how much more attractive a person looks when they have dewy skin 😂
This videos are so great. The fact that all this info is coming from dermatologists makes me so much more confortable to follow your advice. I wish I could get the altreno one here in the UK.
Thank you so much! You can find alternatives in the U.K. hopefully
You could try Differin gel. It’s otc adapalene, which was also mentioned in this video. I looked it up and it’s available in the UK. I’ve used it and it made my skin sting when I touched it after using it more than 3 days in a row, so probably use it every other day or let your moisturizer sink in before applying it if you decide to try it
@@mirny1509 Thank you. :)
@@mirny1509 can I ask where you ordered the Differin from? I’ve been looking for it and I’m not sure on the best place to purchase it. (From the uk too)
I got it in Surrey ,Uk.
Love your videos. They are helpful for anyone that's just starting out.
Love, love you guys! Since I happened upon one of your videos, I have been binge watching.. then I told my niece about you and she proceeded to binge as well LOL Great information. I have always been what I considered 'good' to my skin (and it does not hurt I am blessed with good genes), I am just now taking advantage of the better products (I am 62). I have put a lot of things into practice, that you have helped me understand. THANK YOU! I can't wait to compare 3 months down the road...
Great video guys. I learned a lot and I’ll be changing my skincare routine. You both did well I just found you both and loving all your video. Thank you 😊
I want someone to look at me the way Dr. Maxfield looks at Dr. Shah
Lmao SAME
lmao! omg I noticed that too, especially towards the end of the video.
except they r both married to their wive smh lamo
@@auntiegay9225 A girl can dream. 😍
Came here for this comment
I just started using retinol for the first time just now! I'm using a 2.5% serum, so I used a very small amount and I implemented the moisturizer sandwich technique you recommended in this video. 🙂👍 I'll start with twice a week for the rest of December, and then see if I can amp it up to 3x for January and almost every day by February. Thanks for the tips! Wish me luck!
Did you get any irritation? Cause I want to start but I do not really want to go through any breakout or things like that
@@martinamino8784 no irritation so far for me after 4 applications. I think the moisturizer sandwich helps a lot, because 2.5% is pretty strong for a starter dose
Can we use this over beard?
@@eoniprotocol6786 yes as long as its short enough to rub it into the skin there. I use it all over my face, front and back of my neck and also my arms and tops of my hands
what brand is it? I started with olay retinol serum, i wanna change to higher retinol percentage for my next retinol
Great description, thanks for sharing
