My opinion and only my opinion I personally think with your help you have made companies clean up their act on their products and gave customers a better knowledge on what we are buying from them and for that , bless you
shes also just saying what every other company says i.e. that her products are the best. vitamin c is pointless putting on the skin.. orally taking vitamin c is WAY cheaper and it DOES get to your skin. MOST OTC SKINCARE is pointless. when she was recommending hyaluronic acid.. it was POINTLESS back then too.. but it was made just for content it was already in many products. when she spoke about layering back then telling you how to layer 5 6 7 different products she knew damn well all of it after 2 or 3 was going to waste. all you need is PRESCRIPTION tretinoin (not OTC retinol) she wont say that otherwise you wont buy her retinol products. SPF 50 broadspec PA++++ . a cleanser and a moisturiser . occasionally you can use a chemical peel. but the rest is all pointless unless its prescription acne treatment etc
@@dubai_fitness I have a question I hope you don't mind are a skin of color? if so can you tell me the brand of tretinoin you use, and the brand of sunscreen and last how many units of vitamin C do you take, thank you for reading, seems to me you have knowledge of all this. thank you
Hi Dr. V! Since there are so many products you no longer recommend would love new videos on skincare routines for the different skin types using the new products you recommend. Especially if the products were affordable!
Can you please do this Dr. V. Skin routine for products who have all the Tyronise inhibitor that is needed for skin of colour with a bit of hyperpigmentation.
Hi Dr. V I was using the Ordinary products for hyperpigmentation and dry skin based on your recommendation. Since you no longer recommend most of the products anymore can you make an updated video for hyperpigmentation. Looking forward to see the new video. Thank you. So glad I found you on RUclips ❤
I am glad that I found you Dr V! And thank you so much for all the education, your precious time and more importantly the difference you are making in the skin of color community around the world. I can't wait to receive my package from you, it's on the way and am about to place another order from the body range. Please stay with us and longevity to you! The sky is the limit and long lasting success is all about keeping it real
Dr V, the Naturium Niacinamide you recommended and pictured has 12% pure Niacinamide not 2%. The 2% was the Zinc. Please clarify. I have reviewed the product info and your script which said 2% Niacinamide not 12%.
I came here to say the same thing! I was confused about it too. I googled it and saw that Naturium has a 3% Niacinamide “Essence” so maybe I’ll get that!
This is super interesting how opinions change over the years. When it comes to niacinamide, korean skincare is where its at imo. I only use Korean skincare these days and find it so much better than western products.
@@shutzzzzzz Currently, I'm using I'm From Rice Toner, followed by Propolis Energy Boosting Essence, then Beauty of Joseon Ginseng + Snail Mucin Serum, moisturizer then sunscreen. Throughout the day, I will spritz my face with CosRx Centella Water. Nighttime I use the rice toner, Watery Oil Drop then A-mazing Vitamin A and Bakuchiol serum 4-5x/week. The other 2 nights I will use TO 10% Mandelic acids to exfoliate. Hope that helps!

I wanted to share my recent experience with your RUclips channel. As a skincare enthusiast, I was excited when a friend suggested your channel, particularly because you focus on products for skin of color. Your content has left a strong impression on me, and as a result, I have purchased your products and book today. I can't wait to try them out and read your book. Thank you for your honest reviews and for staying away from sponsorships. Keep up the great work! Congratulations on your success, which is well-earned.
Hello Dr. V! Thank you so much for taking time to update your recommendations. You just don't know how many people you've helped and educated with "one scratch, one bite, one burn". You are amazing! I recommend your channel to all my family and friends 💜. Do you plans to make a formula of Inzincable for oily skin? And do you offer sales/specials around the holidays on your skincare kits?
Dr. V I no longer buy products until I check your videos first. What are your favorite products in 2023 for treating stubborn hyperpigmentation including the right saturated fat sunscreens? Can you also do a video on treating stubborn hyperpigmentation including the right sunscreens? I'm so grateful for you educating people of color. Thank you for filling the void.

I think the ordinary was a good introduction to skincare and are affordable, I've bought their salicylic acid and peptide serum. Luckily, they've now launched new cleansers and moisturisers, the gel moisturiser looks promising.
@lauriannajones I haven't used the ordinary that much since moving to Dr Vs pm gel. The salicylic acid was pretty good for some of my acne and the peptide serum was OK, not too impressive. It kind off made me make less forehead expression, but left my skin really shiny/oily for my liking. The gel moisturiser from the ordinary was horrible for me, I have combination skin so it left my cheeks really dry and had a tacky feel. At least I can return it after using it.
@@zakariahassan7291 Thats good I'm glad its working for you. I'm currently trying to fix my skin barrier which has been stripped because of a bar soap.

Congratulations on a 100 million views Dr V! You deserve that 👏🏾🥂! I’m glad so many of us have been enlightened regarding our skin and how best to care for it 🤍🌸.
Naturium’s Niacinamide serum is actually 12% not 2%. There are other brands with 2% Niacinamide in their formulations eg Beauty of Joseon glow deep serum and glow serum which both contain just 2% Niacinamide. Just thought to put that out there
exactly! she jus recommends stuff that seem good but then she can recommend hers at the end with a slam dunk lol. she dont mention ones that are better than hers
Yes I noticed that naturium's Niacinamide is 12% too and was wondering if anyone else picked up on it. I like Dr V's videos and find them informative however I feel in this instance she let us down by not checking her facts and recommending a product outside the 2-5% Niacinamide range. She probably just saw the 2% zinc and assumed it was 2% for Niacinamide.
Can we please have some routine for feet too? Since there's a lot of confusion whether to scrub our feet or not, its difficult to decide what should we do to keep them not cracked and damaged our skin? Thank you for all you do. Sending lots of love ❤
During covid I learnt a lot from you Dr. V ❤I can run a lecture myself now😂in skincare after learning from u😊My kids started complement my face skin since I have started your recommended routine. I have stopped shopping clothes 😅and handbags 👜 anymore coz I buy Skin care products and clinic treatments only🥰🥰🥰🥰yayy. Thank you so much,I started loving my skin coz of you❤❤❤❤❤Love from Australia 🇦🇺
Dr. V, I just adore your content❤️ Don't know about others but you are my first-ever skincare guide and will always be on the top list. Thank you for being there. 🙌🏽
Dr. V, can you please clarify about your Naturium Niacinamide recommendation? You said it's more gentle because it's "2% Niacinamide", but the bottle actually says "12% Niacinamide and 2% Zinc". I was actually interested in that gentler formulation because I purchased The Ordinary's 10% Niacinamide serum and it burns my face. Not sure if that supposed to happen because I've never used that particular niacinamide before. The niacinamide serum I used before was Glow Recipe's Niacinamide Dew Drops and I didn't have any problems with it. Thank you 💖
Could you please consider creating more informative videos about Korean skincare ingredients as I'm a big fan and have found your guidance helpful in choosing the right skincare products ❤
Korean skincare brands like Numbuzin, some by mi, isntree, skin1004, beauty of joseon. I prefer using these brands but still want an informative video on these brands. Are the ingredients actually worth it. Is it good for skin of color.
Thank you for this updated video 💗🙏🏽 I've learned so much from you and have changed my skincare products because of what you taught me. I look at skincare products totally different now and with a keen eye. When I see social media influencers who are P.O.C.s promoting/selling skincare that isn't even good for their skin or their audience's skin, I give them a Bombastic Side-Eye because they literally have no idea what the hell they're selling. Also, many POC influencers have natural beautiful skin, in addition to many of them being in their early 20s. So they sell skincare products to their audience claiming that the products are "the best", when in fact that influencer has beautiful skin due to their GENETICS and their age - not because of some skincare products that aren't even good for their skin! It's crazy out there in skincare land. Thanks for everything you do! 💖 God bless ✨🥰
Hi Dr. V, after discovering your channel, it became a habit to check the ingredients list of the products I intentionally want to buy at first then the moment I see 'Fragrance or Parfum' in them I just let them go. And it's true, the products which are really good are pricey. Like Naturium is really good but pricey.
I Usually see Dr.V a lot more than other derma but I have a deep observation. For example for the past 3 years I have been using 10 % Niacinamide . And it has done wonders for me. Also I know many who are getting the most benefit out of it. Why do I feel that Dr. V recommation has reduced to almost 0 of other brands / products and ends up advertising her own brand. I am not saying that anything is wrong with that but there many many products that has done wonders to my skin( ended up having a glass skin) which are not recommended by Dr. V I have highly respect for your knowledge but it's a strong feeling seeing alot of videos now . Same thing happens again and again.
Minimalist, Plum and derma co. have good 5% niacinamide serums Deconstruct has a 2% alpha arbutin plus 5% niacinamide Minimalist 2% salicylic acid serum is non-drying bcz it has added humectants and antioxidants Suganda has a 2% alpha arbutin 3% tranexamic acid with 5% niacinamide and 2% acetyl glucosamine The formula rx has a good 0.1% retinol with bakuchiol and 5% niacinamide
Thank you so much for getting back to us, especially on the niacinamide’s percentage..When I learned from your IG post few months ago that you no longer approve the ordinary niacinamide… I actually side eyed🙄 you😊. Also thanks for putting it out there that these things are ever evolving.
hylauranic acid was always a waste of money its always been in moisturisers.... vitamin c was always pointless as oral vit c is WAY cheaper and gets to the skin to brighten it. retinol is pointless you should get prescription tretnoin which she was never recommend otherwise you wont buy her retinol products. she jus makes vids for content and now to sell her products
Please do a video for PCOS related hyperpigmentation and its relation with Acanthosis Nigricans... I've got dark patches on the sides of my face and neck so I'd love your inputs on the same
Can't wait to try inzincable (very soon) as we can now get it here in SA🇿🇦. The moisturizer I currently swear about, la Roche posay lipikar baume. I have tried so many which were hyped, but never worked for my skin (combination dry, acne prone skin) until I found this moisturizer...
Thank you so much Dr.V not only your videos guides as well of what not to do or not use but also motivates so much to take care of our skin and make ot part of our other routines, just love all the information get from you, thank you so so much !
Would love to see a pregnancy recommendations video x like whichbproducts are safe to use and common skin concerns thatbare triggered by pregnancy especially in Peoplenof Colour x
Hey Dr.V, Can you please make a video of morning and night skin care routines with what and what not to layer together and suitable moisturisers for an Oily, sensitive acne prone skin. I’m hesitant to use retinol as I have damaged skin yet. Was using epiduo 0.3%/2.5% but had chemical Burns although my acne got under control for some Extent. Would like to have an advice on retinol usage aswell. Thank you so much Dr.V for this amazing service you do ❤.
Hi DrV, thank you for all you do for skin of color, we finally have representation, I have a question, what should I do with stubborn pigmentation I have, I am on my second kit from your collection, my skin texture feels fabulous except the pigmentation. Please let me know. Thank you!
Hello Dr.V .... I am a blind follower of you and I religiously did all that u have said for hyper pigmentation and I have no words to thank u .... they have faded big time but not gone... pls pls let me know if I should continue with what ever I hv been doing???
Anti aging for oily skin PLEASE! I started doing your anti aging paulas choice system and it makes my face so oily and I have constant clogged pores and pimples. Ugh!
I am a new subscriber, I have been binging on your videos and Dr Alexis Stephens videos. Thank you for making a difference and enlightening us about do’s and don’t’s for skin of color. I am a Paula’s Choice user but have decided to incorporate some Colorscience, Naturium, Good Molecules and your Cera Pep Moisturizer and Inzincable. I would say many people have gotten great results from The Ordinary and Good Molecules products, especially for hyperpigmentation issues. I really think they should continue if it is not harmful and worked for them. They are so affordable and millions would otherwise not have any options that worked. Thank you for alerting us to The Ordinary, Good Molecules, The Inkey List, Naturium etc. Many of their products are safe, very affordable and actually WORK!!!. People who can’t afford the high price tags can still have great skin. Thanks!!!
Started using First Aid Beauty for several months now based on Dr. Alexis Stephens' suggestions. This line is simply amazing for SOC, I use their Ultra Repair Cream Intense Hydration AND their Vitamin C mentioned in this video. Their product ingredients and combinations by and large are so well suited for POC. (A lot are NAFE safe) Absoloutely love, love their products.
@@dubai_fitness I will continue to use Vitamin C topically as my skin has greatly improved/ benefitted (and continues to do so) in texture, clarity and resilience.
always informative but now feel.kinda discouraged.budget to afford skincare lines like versed,odinary,inkey,ect and its hard making myself prioritize my skincare at their prices.just reordered now what ive been doing is pointless/noneffective?!😓😕😒
Dr V. Could you please review Scarlett Johansson's, The Outset skincare brand. Many people claim that this skincare line is fragrance free and is good for skin but I can only rest assure if you will review it 😊 And thank you so much for spending your precious time in educating us about skin care and we are so glad we can learn all these things from a person like you who is actually certified and is a expert in this field.
Dr V. I bought an eye cream called SEA-el vitamin C Kelp eye gel. I bought it b/c it seamed to have decent ingredients. I bought it at like a TJMaxx. In the top 10 ingredients it does have your fave vit C at #7 and it has veg Glycerin at #6. Oh and Licorice root at #10 or #11 Before all that its water, áloe, raddish root, sea kelp.. many veg ingredients. So can you try to find it to see if it's good? Or based on what I have shared if you think it's good. I will say it feels cooling to my eyes and I haven't had any issues thus far. Been using for about 2 months at night only. It is in a jar not an airless pump.
Congratulations Dr V! on reaching 100m views👍this is definitely a fantastic channel we love, providing skin of colour persons with the much ignored/lacking global skin care education
Please can you arrange the following skincare in the order I should use it in at night: - Hyaluronic acid - niacinamide - Granactive retinoids 5% - Azelaic acid - vitamin C 30% P.S. all products are by The Ordinary I would greatly appreciate it😊
Thank u Dr V for educating us on how to read the INCI list and about NAFE safe on products. Earlier i never read or looked at that part of the packaging and most probably would not have understood if i hadn't come across yur vlogs You are my guru 😀 have been watching all yur videos. Recently i bought yur hyperpigmentation kit and i can see visible fading of pigmentation just after using it for two months. In the past i did use The ordinary alpha arbutin niacinamide and vit c serum for almost two yrs but didnt see much change. Keep making more videos as u have i feel made significant change in my skin care routine 👍
Physical sunscreen for oily acne prone skin with less white cast please recommend. I have used colorescience matte and neutrogena oil free, those are oily
If you are saying layering serums like from the Ordinary is not effective, what about mixing them before applying to the face? For example mixing argiline or niacinimide with matrixylin which is a peptide serum.
Dr V can you do a updated Paula’s choice review? They released a triple action serum, and a pro collagen booster. I would love for you to review those products because I want to buy them.
Hi Dr V I would like to personally thank you so much to for this Channel you have really helped me so much in regards to understanding my own skin I would have been really lost without to this Channel. What I am most grateful for with this Channel has been really understanding the inci list and knowing what to avoid and what to look for in skincare thank you so much. ❤❤❤❤
Thanks for update as i am a follwer that was doing The Ordinary layer up, then finish off with cerave.i just bought tub of cerave but doesnt have a pump mechanism worried it wont benefit my skin.Paula choice is very good.
hylauranic acid was always a waste of money its always been in moisturisers.... vitamin c was always pointless as oral vit c is WAY cheaper and gets to the skin to brighten it. retinol is pointless you should get prescription tretnoin which she was never recommend otherwise you wont buy her retinol products. she jus makes vids for content and now to sell her products
Ive learned so much from watching your channel. I had no idea that skin of color skin care products should be different from caucasian skin. Thank you so much. ❤️❤️
I just bought airless pumps from Amazon and transferred my products into them. Problem solved. 10% niacinamide works great for me 2%-5% would never contain the oil I produce in the spring summer time. Those studies were definitely not on skin of colour
Hi I dont have skin of color but love watching your videos. They are very eductiona. but wanted to let you know that Naturim serum you showed has 12 percent on niacinamide not 2. I actually have this product.
Bought your sunscreen and exfoliate to glow, very happy. I have combination skin and I tend to go a bit dry with mineral sunscreens, would love if it is possible to put more moisturizers in sunscreen. Ur products are amazing
Dr. V please do a video on these Indian brands: Earth Rhythm, Aqualogica, Pilgrim. Also who has been you for the longest of times, have now fine knowledge about skincare ingredients (Thanks to your all hardwork & honesty), I would really request please make a video for haircare ingredients like minoxidil etc which are so confusing as well as about hair porosity. Love & prayers from India❤😊
I tried your complete skin care range. I have used multiple skin care products. From glycolic peels to Vit C to retinol, kojic acids etc etc over the years, I’ve always seen wonderful results with them . I really wanted to get something that I can stick to forever so I bought your products. I’m so so so dissatisfied. It’s basically a useless over priced range of gimmicky skincare . The Oil Cleanser came in broken and spilled in pack. There was product left in pack so I still could use some of it .. but how I wish it all had spilled lol. The gel wash does not cleanse well. The exfoliating gel is very mild ( at least for my skin) the serum does nothing and is basically very silicone-y. The only good thing is the cera prep. This moisturizer is really nice ! I am around 38 yrs old. Never broken out on my skin even with multiple skin care products . I never ever had any hyperpigmentation. I did not have one pimple mark on my face in these 38 yrs of my life and within one month of using these products I have soooo many marks. I don’t feel like looking at myself in the mirror anymore. I have to hide my marks with makeup. I don’t know what to do now! I thought of trying hyperpigmentation kit but I’m not even sure if I should trust your products now. It’s a nightmare I’m going through..
Thanks for another great! I got micro needling done for pitted acne scarring but you’re right it doesn’t work out as well at home. Got it done at a dermatologist and thought he charged a lot more he used a deeper needle and I think it was more effective and overall safer! I still think brands like ordinary are good because they are quite affordable and accessible to most. Well done for hitting 100m views, will be 1billiom next!
Dr V, my skin always gets greasy when i use any sunscreen. I have been using colorescience matte spf 50 but it is not matte at all. I can literally see it becomes oily. Also i have used neutrogena oil free spf 50. Again it is oily and hurts my eyes everytime. Can you please make video on sunscreen for oily skin❤
I don't think anyone do things like u do for us dr. Thank u so much for all ur hard efforts. Dr minimalist has 2% granactive retinoid in a airless pump? Is that good?
Thank you for this video, but the problem is as I'm from India most of the products you have recommended in this video is way too expensive or isn't available here. I would be soo happy if you can launch your products here in India.
DR V WHY IS IT THAT YOUR PRODUCTS DO NOT HAVE INCREDIENTS LABLED ON THEM SO THAT WE CAN ALL READ EXACTLY WHAT IS IN THE PRODUCT As recommended.I Personally have used your products for 9months unfortunately I found no difference in my skin at all. The first 2 to 3 weeks I saw a change but nothing after that. I had to stop because the products are very small and expensive for me at the moment.
Would it be possible to get an updated skin care routine for hyperpigmentation with the now recommended products? I’m currently 4 weeks in with the old routine that’s using the ordinary 🥺

Dr. V, can you please clarify about your Naturium Niacinamide recommendation? You said it's more gentle because it's "2% Niacinamide", but the bottle actually says "12% Niacinamide and 2% Zinc".
I was actually interested in that gentler formulation because I purchased The Ordinary's 10% Niacinamide serum and it burns my face. Not sure if that supposed to happen because I've never used that particular niacinamide before. The niacinamide serum I used before was Glow Recipe's Niacinamide Dew Drops and I didn't have any problems with it.
Thank you 💖
Hi Dr V! Your videos have been so helpful for me, thanks!
I am 23 and have very mild dark circles, what should I use for them?
Thanks for reading🧡
I think the Naturium is12% niacinamide. I can’t find the product at 2%
Could you please consider creating more informative videos about Korean skincare ingredients as I'm a big fan and have found your guidance helpful in choosing the right skincare products ❤
Korean skincare brands like Numbuzin, some by mi, isntree, skin1004, beauty of joseon. I prefer using these brands but still want an informative video on these brands. Are the ingredients actually worth it. Is it good for skin of color.
Hi Dr. V, Doesn't the Naturium Niacinamide zinc serum have 12% Niacinamide, not 2%?
Just thought I'd confirm.
Thank you &
Love your videos!
I was confused by that also
Nutrium has 2 niacinamide products. They have a gel that is 5percent in a jar and a 12 percent in a pump
Dr.V thanks so much because of you i have my 16 year old face again at 42. Simple changes and recommendations from you have helped me so so much.
Wow what did uoh use
Thank you for this updated video 💗🙏🏽 I've learned so much from you and have changed my skincare products because of what you taught me.
I look at skincare products totally different now and with a keen eye.
When I see social media influencers who are P.O.C.s promoting/selling skincare that isn't even good for their skin or their audience's skin, I give them a Bombastic Side-Eye because they literally have no idea what the hell they're selling.
Also, many POC influencers have natural beautiful skin, in addition to many of them being in their early 20s. So they sell skincare products to their audience claiming that the products are "the best", when in fact that influencer has beautiful skin due to their GENETICS and their age - not because of some skincare products that aren't even good for their skin! It's crazy out there in skincare land.
Thanks for everything you do! 💖 God bless ✨🥰
It makes sense. Sometimes I wonder if all these layers are necessary. I am glad you keep researching
Hi Dr. V, after discovering your channel, it became a habit to check the ingredients list of the products I intentionally want to buy at first then the moment I see 'Fragrance or Parfum' in them I just let them go. And it's true, the products which are really good are pricey. Like Naturium is really good but pricey.
I can't thank you enough my skin has changed in the last few years. God bless you ❤😊
I Usually see Dr.V a lot more than other derma but I have a deep observation. For example for the past 3 years I have been using 10 % Niacinamide . And it has done wonders for me. Also I know many who are getting the most benefit out of it.
Why do I feel that Dr. V recommation has reduced to almost 0 of other brands / products and ends up advertising her own brand.
I am not saying that anything is wrong with that but there many many products that has done wonders to my skin( ended up having a glass skin) which are not recommended by Dr. V
I have highly respect for your knowledge but it's a strong feeling seeing alot of videos now . Same thing happens again and again.
Hi, Can you please do an updated one for naturium skincare products?
Minimalist, Plum and derma co. have good 5% niacinamide serums
Deconstruct has a 2% alpha arbutin plus 5% niacinamide
Minimalist 2% salicylic acid serum is non-drying bcz it has added humectants and antioxidants
Suganda has a 2% alpha arbutin 3% tranexamic acid with 5% niacinamide and 2% acetyl glucosamine
The formula rx has a good 0.1% retinol with bakuchiol and 5% niacinamide
Cerave tub is something I keep going back to! Suits me the most.
Me too
Thank you so much for getting back to us, especially on the niacinamide’s percentage..When I learned from your IG post few months ago that you no longer approve the ordinary niacinamide… I actually side eyed🙄 you😊. Also thanks for putting it out there that these things are ever evolving.
hylauranic acid was always a waste of money its always been in moisturisers.... vitamin c was always pointless as oral vit c is WAY cheaper and gets to the skin to brighten it. retinol is pointless you should get prescription tretnoin which she was never recommend otherwise you wont buy her retinol products. she jus makes vids for content and now to sell her products
Please do a video for PCOS related hyperpigmentation and its relation with Acanthosis Nigricans... I've got dark patches on the sides of my face and neck so I'd love your inputs on the same
Can't wait to try inzincable (very soon) as we can now get it here in SA🇿🇦. The moisturizer I currently swear about, la Roche posay lipikar baume. I have tried so many which were hyped, but never worked for my skin (combination dry, acne prone skin) until I found this moisturizer...
I ordered from musebeauty in South Africa 🇿🇦 , delivered within a day . Started using today
Dr V, please can you do videos on the use of Tallow Butter and also how effective Red Light Therapy masks are. Thanks.
Thank you so much Dr.V not only your videos guides as well of what not to do or not use but also motivates so much to take care of our skin and make ot part of our other routines, just love all the information get from you, thank you so so much !
Can do a review on Revolution Skincare Ceramides Moisture Cream please, it has most of the ingredients you have motioned the most on your video.
I have never seen Naturium’s 2% Niacinamide. I only see the 12%.
Would love to see a pregnancy recommendations video x like whichbproducts are safe to use and common skin concerns thatbare triggered by pregnancy especially in Peoplenof Colour x
Hey Dr.V,
Can you please make a video of morning and night skin care routines with what and what not to layer together and suitable moisturisers for an
Oily, sensitive acne prone skin. I’m hesitant to use retinol as I have damaged skin yet. Was using epiduo 0.3%/2.5% but had chemical
Burns although my acne got under control for some
Extent. Would like to have an advice on retinol usage aswell.
Thank you so much Dr.V for this amazing service you do ❤.
Hi DrV, thank you for all you do for skin of color, we finally have representation, I have a question, what should I do with stubborn pigmentation I have, I am on my second kit from your collection, my skin texture feels fabulous except the pigmentation. Please let me know.
Thank you!
We thank you so much! I know I’m not alone when I say I’ve gained my confidence back with improving my skin! Thank you thank you thank you!
Hello Dr.V .... I am a blind follower of you and I religiously did all that u have said for hyper pigmentation and I have no words to thank u .... they have faded big time but not gone... pls pls let me know if I should continue with what ever I hv been doing???
Sad you took the Cereve rub off the list. I bought it a month ago.
Dr. V can you do an updated video for a skin care routine for POC teens with dry skin, oily skin with occasional breakouts/acne prone skin? Thank you!
The layering of Ordinary products that I got from this channel helped my skin very much. But this video was still helpful.
Anti aging for oily skin PLEASE! I started doing your anti aging paulas choice system and it makes my face so oily and I have constant clogged pores and pimples. Ugh!
Dr. V., the stares I get since I’ve followed your pithy skincare advice is incomprehensible!!!! Thank you for sharing so much with your SOC family.
Is the Naturium niacinamide OK to use as it says it's 12% and not 2%? Or am I missing something?! Thanks.
she obvioiusly didnt take her time researching for us... she just wanted to mention her own product at the end as superior
Please do a video on foxtale, conscious chemist & formularx
I thought the niacinamide was 12 and the zinc was 2,,,
I've been with you since I was in esti school during covid. Such a wealth of knowledge and your ethics are what's brought me back every video.
I am a new subscriber, I have been binging on your videos and Dr Alexis Stephens videos. Thank you for making a difference and enlightening us about do’s and don’t’s for skin of color.
I am a Paula’s Choice user but have decided to incorporate some Colorscience, Naturium, Good Molecules and your Cera Pep Moisturizer and Inzincable.
I would say many people have gotten great results from The Ordinary and Good Molecules products, especially for hyperpigmentation issues. I really think they should continue if it is not harmful and worked for them. They are so affordable and millions would otherwise not have any options that worked.
Thank you for alerting us to The Ordinary, Good Molecules, The Inkey List, Naturium etc. Many of their products are safe, very affordable and actually WORK!!!. People who can’t afford the high price tags can still have great skin. Thanks!!!
Simple with me works i would just use one active. Either Niacinamide, Retinol, vitamin c
Dr V, love your content. Please do an AM and PM routine using brands available in India.
Started using First Aid Beauty for several months now based on Dr. Alexis Stephens' suggestions. This line is simply amazing for SOC, I use their Ultra Repair Cream Intense Hydration AND their Vitamin C mentioned in this video. Their product ingredients and combinations by and large are so well suited for POC. (A lot are NAFE safe) Absoloutely love, love their products.
Thank you. Will try it for sure. Thanks
vitamin c is a waste of money, taking vitamic c orally which is WAY cheaper has been shown to get to the skin to brighten it
@@dubai_fitness I will continue to use Vitamin C topically as my skin has greatly improved/ benefitted (and continues to do so) in texture, clarity and resilience.
@@lisasprovidence4572 lol if anything it brightens your skin abit. Oral tabs do the same thing and it’s cheaper and less time consuming
@@dubai_fitness Only me would know my personal experience with Vit C so I stand by what I said/ experience.
always informative but now feel.kinda discouraged.budget to afford skincare lines like versed,odinary,inkey,ect and its hard making myself prioritize my skincare at their prices.just reordered now what ive been doing is pointless/noneffective?!😓😕😒
Dr V. Could you please review Scarlett Johansson's, The Outset skincare brand.
Many people claim that this skincare line is fragrance free and is good for skin but I can only rest assure if you will review it 😊
And thank you so much for spending your precious time in educating us about skin care and we are so glad we can learn all these things from a person like you who is actually certified and is a expert in this field.
Dr V may you please review Yearn Skin, it is a South African skincare range that I would like to try. Thanks
Dr V. I bought an eye cream called SEA-el vitamin C Kelp eye gel. I bought it b/c it seamed to have decent ingredients. I bought it at like a TJMaxx. In the top 10 ingredients it does have your fave vit C at #7 and it has veg Glycerin at #6. Oh and Licorice root at #10 or #11 Before all that its water, áloe, raddish root, sea kelp.. many veg ingredients. So can you try to find it to see if it's good? Or based on what I have shared if you think it's good. I will say it feels cooling to my eyes and I haven't had any issues thus far. Been using for about 2 months at night only. It is in a jar not an airless pump.
I’m so glad that you made this video Dr. V ❤
Please do an upgradedAM/PM, Pregnancy Safe skincare routine vid please!
Much Love 🤗
Congratulations Dr V! on reaching 100m views👍this is definitely a fantastic channel we love, providing skin of colour persons with the much ignored/lacking global skin care education
Please can you arrange the following skincare in the order I should use it in at night:
- Hyaluronic acid
- niacinamide
- Granactive retinoids 5%
- Azelaic acid
- vitamin C 30%
P.S. all products are by The Ordinary
I would greatly appreciate it😊
I don’t think that Retiniod and vitamin c should mix. She had many videos on the ordinary
Hopefully, I can afford to buy your products Dr. V, when the shipping fee in our country is not so crazy. Love your videos. ❤❤❤
Do you have any videos for African skin care for men?
Thank u Dr V for educating us on how to read the INCI list and about NAFE safe on products. Earlier i never read or looked at that part of the packaging and most probably would not have understood if i hadn't come across yur vlogs
You are my guru 😀 have been watching all yur videos. Recently i bought yur hyperpigmentation kit and i can see visible fading of pigmentation just after using it for two months. In the past i did use The ordinary alpha arbutin niacinamide and vit c serum for almost two yrs but didnt see much change. Keep making more videos as u have i feel made significant change in my skin care routine 👍
Physical sunscreen for oily acne prone skin with less white cast please recommend. I have used colorescience matte and neutrogena oil free, those are oily
If you are saying layering serums like from the Ordinary is not effective, what about mixing them before applying to the face? For example mixing argiline or niacinimide with matrixylin which is a peptide serum.
Please do a new post inflammatory hyperpigmentation routine with this new information. Its so confusing on what to we should and shouldnt do 😢
Can you recommend a top 5 moisturizer for oily combination skin
Dr V can you do a updated Paula’s choice review? They released a triple action serum, and a pro collagen booster. I would love for you to review those products because I want to buy them.
Hi Dr V I would like to personally thank you so much to for this Channel you have really helped me so much in regards to understanding my own skin I would have been really lost without to this Channel. What I am most grateful for with this Channel has been really understanding the inci list and knowing what to avoid and what to look for in skincare thank you so much. ❤❤❤❤
Thanks for update as i am a follwer that was doing The Ordinary layer up, then finish off with cerave.i just bought tub of cerave but doesnt have a pump mechanism worried it wont benefit my skin.Paula choice is very good.
Dr. V made a huge difference in the skincare industry!
hylauranic acid was always a waste of money its always been in moisturisers.... vitamin c was always pointless as oral vit c is WAY cheaper and gets to the skin to brighten it. retinol is pointless you should get prescription tretnoin which she was never recommend otherwise you wont buy her retinol products. she jus makes vids for content and now to sell her products
Ive learned so much from watching your channel. I had no idea that skin of color skin care products should be different from caucasian skin. Thank you so much. ❤️❤️
Thank you for your integrity, honesty and ethics. 💗💗
Please do more hyperpigmentation products reviews available in India until we wait for Dr V skincare range to be available in India
Thank you could we have a video about how to use your products effectively please ❤😊
Dr Vanita Paula's choice just introduced eye cream with with 0.01% retinol concentration could you look into this much appreciated!
I just bought airless pumps from Amazon and transferred my products into them. Problem solved. 10% niacinamide works great for me 2%-5% would never contain the oil I produce in the spring summer time. Those studies were definitely not on skin of colour
Hi I dont have skin of color but love watching your videos. They are very eductiona. but wanted to let you know that Naturim serum you showed has 12 percent on niacinamide not 2. I actually have this product.
Also, best approach to collagen stimulation & tackling dark marks! Skin needling or red light therapy?
My daughter (24 years old) is half-Asian and half caucasian. Could you talk about skincare, which products for them please., many thanks in advance.
hi dr V could you pls do a video on eye creams n eye
serums - what's the difference n how to choose thank you
Bought your sunscreen and exfoliate to glow, very happy. I have combination skin and I tend to go a bit dry with mineral sunscreens, would love if it is possible to put more moisturizers in sunscreen. Ur products are amazing
I use moisterizers under but still feel dry
Dr. V please do a video on these Indian brands:
Earth Rhythm, Aqualogica, Pilgrim.
Also who has been you for the longest of times, have now fine knowledge about skincare ingredients (Thanks to your all hardwork & honesty), I would really request please make a video for haircare ingredients like minoxidil etc which are so confusing as well as about hair porosity.
Love & prayers from India❤😊
I tried your complete skin care range. I have used multiple skin care products. From glycolic peels to Vit C to retinol, kojic acids etc etc over the years, I’ve always seen wonderful results with them . I really wanted to get something that I can stick to forever so I bought your products. I’m so so so dissatisfied. It’s basically a useless over priced range of gimmicky skincare . The Oil Cleanser came in broken and spilled in pack. There was product left in pack so I still could use some of it .. but how I wish it all had spilled lol. The gel wash does not cleanse well. The exfoliating gel is very mild ( at least for my skin) the serum does nothing and is basically very silicone-y. The only good thing is the cera prep. This moisturizer is really nice ! I am around 38 yrs old. Never broken out on my skin even with multiple skin care products . I never ever had any hyperpigmentation. I did not have one pimple mark on my face in these 38 yrs of my life and within one month of using these products I have soooo many marks. I don’t feel like looking at myself in the mirror anymore. I have to hide my marks with makeup. I don’t know what to do now! I thought of trying hyperpigmentation kit but I’m not even sure if I should trust your products now. It’s a nightmare I’m going through..
Hi you mentioned not higher than 2-5 percent and your recommendations are to use Naturium which is 12% plus Zinc at 2%
Thanks for another great! I got micro needling done for pitted acne scarring but you’re right it doesn’t work out as well at home. Got it done at a dermatologist and thought he charged a lot more he used a deeper needle and I think it was more effective and overall safer! I still think brands like ordinary are good because they are quite affordable and accessible to most. Well done for hitting 100m views, will be 1billiom next!
Dr V, my skin always gets greasy when i use any sunscreen. I have been using colorescience matte spf 50 but it is not matte at all. I can literally see it becomes oily. Also i have used neutrogena oil free spf 50. Again it is oily and hurts my eyes everytime. Can you please make video on sunscreen for oily skin❤
❤ waiting for Dr.V’s foundation for oily acne skin 💕 😊
Ooh...1st samples are being tested on candidates right now and i love it!
@@vanitarattan WOWW… waiting impatiently… simply 💕 U.
Your working on an eye cream, for us!!! 🥰 we love you Dr. V!
I don't think anyone do things like u do for us dr. Thank u so much for all ur hard efforts. Dr minimalist has 2% granactive retinoid in a airless pump? Is that good?
Thank you for this video, but the problem is as I'm from India most of the products you have recommended in this video is way too expensive or isn't available here. I would be soo happy if you can launch your products here in India.
DR V
WHY IS IT THAT YOUR PRODUCTS DO NOT HAVE INCREDIENTS LABLED ON THEM SO THAT WE CAN ALL READ EXACTLY WHAT IS IN THE PRODUCT As recommended.I Personally have used your products for 9months unfortunately I found no difference in my skin at all. The first 2 to 3 weeks I saw a change but nothing after that. I had to stop because the products are very small and expensive for me at the moment.
We have a lot of actives so they don't fit on packaging. All available on our website x
Would it be possible to get an updated skin care routine for hyperpigmentation with the now recommended products? I’m currently 4 weeks in with the old routine that’s using the ordinary 🥺
She is redoing all the videos that us so great an update video on the skincare ingredients is so important
Please review all the beauty of Joseon products pls they are a really good Korean brand 🙏🏽
