I would love to see an AM & PM skincare routine that uses these products to lighten/remove hyperpigmentation & melasma. So often we have all of the ingredients but we arent using them to their full potential due to lack of knowledge in layering or using other products that don’t pair well. Thanks and love all of your videos!!!
@megleland6320 your comment was so helpful! I'm a novice to alot of this info; would you be willing to list the names of the products you use, specially the one prescribed by your derm and also the special sunscreen? Or any others you can vouch for?😊
@@megleland6320 Thank you for sharing your detailed process. I wish Dr. Idriss would share these type of details. Product knowledge is great but unless it's used properly, you will not reap the benefits. Would you mind sharing the actual products you use? Also, prior to using these products, how severe were your hyperpigmentations or melanoma? How long did it take before you saw significant results. I have tried so many different products and none have seemed to diminish the hyperpigmentations. I've tried several C (ascorbic acid) serums and most have caused severe dryness and crepey texture so I have to dilute it with other serums like Alpha Arbutus. It doesn't sound like you have dry skin. My cheeks are very dry and even worse when using C serums or retinol which I have omitted to cut down on dryness. I've tried so many moisturizers like Urban SkinFx, Aveeno Calm Restore, and many other heavy barrier creams but they don't seem to help. :( I appreciate any help you can provide.
10:43 I love that you mentioned this. for this reason I rather use niacinimde 5% + alpha arbutin 2%+ trentinoin together than vitamin c. All of them together can do what vitamin c can do by itself. But they do a better job for each task. Niacnimide and vitamin c are both antioxidant but vitamin c can be irritating to your skin and it’s a very unstable ingredient
Very professional... I can tell how much this info matters to you as many of these ingredients are in your skincare line, yet you haven't turned this video into an ad.. Respect
Congratulations on your huge milestone!!!!! I am so grateful your video was recommended to me many moons ago!!! I am 51 yo and the amount of knowledge I get from you blows my mind!! Thank you so much to you, your wonderfully crew that helps you daily, and your family who has supported and loved you throughout you journey!!!
@@captainsayangI was prescribed hydroquinone 2% last Dec and I think I noticed the halo abt 3 mths ago. But I only use it 2/3 times a week as I often forget.
i ADORE you....your frankness and sense of humour, your truth, your experience and education! I am however so overwhelmed as a consumer as to what the heck is best for my situation! Even looking at your beautiful skin care line....do I need it all? Will one thing work? (melasma that started with pregnancy (hormonal)/freckles/skin damage). I'm 56 years old now and the struggle is REAL! HA! My derm has suggested VB6, gycolic acid and retinoids. I've added Hydroquinone, vitamin C (topical and PO). I'm using timeless products morning and night and YOUR cream recommendations. I would so appreciate your thoughts but know you are so busy!
My favorite dermatologist and my fave topic! This is a better way to spend my rainy Saturday morning! Thank you Dr. Shereene and pillowtalkderm for all the great work!
Thank you! I always think that a smooth, unified complexion is the most important thing in optimizing your looks. This list is so helpful. Thank you for being here for us!!!
Hi Dr. Idriss, congratulations and huge thanks for sharing your knowledge with us! Would you consider making a video on treatments for old scars (especially flat, white, linear scars from cuts) - how to remove or make them less visible? It would be very helpful. Thanks in advance!
I found you about a month ago and have been devouring your content. I am on a budget currently, being optimistic that is changing, however, I think you are great! Thank you.
Dr. Sheerene can you please do a video specially on the ingredients that should be avoided in skincare? It'd be really helpful. ( If you have time of course) Either way your greatest gift for the skincare nerds. Love you ❤
Also congratulations on your huge milestone. I've only recently found your channel and I'm surprised your not in the millions. Your knowledge and approachable nature and personality should be acknowledged. 🥰
Good morning!!! Fabulous information as always. I would love to see a deep dive into increased hyperpigmentation I'm seeing during menopause replacement therapy.
Menopause replacement therapy can trigger Milazzo hyperpigmentation due to the hormones within it - is the same for contraception especially for people of colour - doctors don’t make people aware of this so they get a shock - using the tips that doctor has said will help
@@theabispin8032that's the reason I am hesitant to start HRT, being melama sufferer for a decade and now in menopausal stage, so frustrating to make the right decision, being South East Asian, so much prone to this 😢
Thank you for being so knowledgeable and doing the scientific research on these things. And I love that I never feel like you are trying to sell me a product! ❤
Dear Shereene, do you ever tan? As in go swimming in the ocean, enjoy the day by the pool? My issue with going deep into anti-aging is that because I started to focus so much on the negatives (sun spots that run in the family, skin cancer obsession), I lost the ability to enjoy being outside. And I live for being in the water, it's my ultimate self help tool to unwind. I like to be a little golden looking. I cannot spend my life being scared for the sun touching my body, which is the case now. I see new sun spots come out on my body daily and I'm lost.
Love your channel! I would love for you to talk more on evidence based skin care backed by science. I feel there is a lack in the skin care community and would love to hear your opinion on it. 😊
Thanks for this! Is there a video where you show products that have these ingredients? I’m so lost on where to start looking 🤯😵💫 I’ve had hyper pigmentation for 15 years on my back and now getting it on other parts of my body and face 😞
Thank you so much for these informative videos!! It would really help if you can also give us an example of a skincare routine using these ingredients and whether it's okay to use them on top of another etc!
Can we layer them in the order you mentioned… except for hydroquinone and alpha arbutin where you mentioned to use when not in hydroquinone. All other products can we layer them ar night?
Moi aussi! Je les ai fait transférer ici via une plate-forme et ça m’a coûté quasi le double du système ! Je ne le referai pas 😅 c’est dommage , en tout cas ça fonctionne très bien
Very informative. I now always use sun screen, but many yrs. in a hot climate find it very hard to reduce it. I will now try Alpha Arbutin. So much sensitivity with retinoids.
Hi Dr Idriss! Can you tell us how you would incorporate these products during AM and PM skin care routines? Like what step should each one go ofc incorporating your products
A video about LED, comparing informing your superpowers please I need! I can’t throw money wildly it’s expensive 🙏 Need your honest amazing juice, I need youuuu I can’t without all your videos, when it comes to skin I only listen to you, nobody beats your honesty knowledge personality just everything. ❤
Would be great to make a video about home devices! They are so many and it's hard to tell what is really effective and what is just a waste of money... For example, the light therapy is everywhere right now, I'd love to hear your thoughts on that. Thank you so much 💜
Hello Dr Idriss and loads of love from lebanon!❤ 🇱🇧 I am a licensed cosmetologist and your generously informative videos have saved the day countless times in my professional journey! Thank you endlessly!!! I wonder if you could make a video about natural skincare, specifically aloe vera plant, ( for those here who are financially incapable of buying products) and how/when to use it. Respect and regards.❤❤❤❤❤
Congrats on 500k milestone. You deserve to go to one million. As was mentioned, great info..please help us translate this info into an action plan. Most of us have a budget that is modest. Going to a derm doc every couple of months for scripts plus buying the ingredients is too expensive. It’s thousands of dollars a year. How do we achieve near results with over the counter products?
Appreciate your content and your fun personality!! Thank you for the education!! Can consider creating an auxiliary video top ten hyperpigmentation products in addition to this video?
Trying to concentrate, but I can’t because I am in love with your necklaces. I had to restart the video to get my mind on my melasma that is so bad this summer.
I know I want it every time she wears it but I think it might be two together. If you read this Doc...please tell us who made the necklace...it's amazing...as well as your info!
Hello from Australia 🇦🇺 😊 I was wondering if you have any suggestions or if you can make a video about white spots on your arms. I thought they were scars from when I used to breed dogs and I played with all the puppies and there perfect little sharp teeth. But someone mentioned to me recently it is sun damage and I've lost my pigment making cells or something. I'm 37 and only recently started getting into skincare- yes not so good but always preferred not looking in the mirror haha. Would love to hear your thoughts on if my friend is correct and any solution to make them go away. Loving your channel. I've become addicted and your voice is so soothing and makes me calm ❤
I second this. I have white “freckles” all over my arms along with my brown freckles. All from sun damage. Have always wondered is there is a treatment.
Ok. Love the necklace!! Where did that come from? I’m a daily outdoor swimmer and hoping you will do a video on how to best protect during and care for after daily outdoor exercise. I do slather everything in sunscreen, but I may not be making the right choice for sport. My skin is also dry because of the chlorine. I live in south Texas humid soup so heavier moisturizers for daytime just melt right off. Thanks!
Can you please make a video of how to combine/use together these ingredients because mostly they are sold as individual serum etc. For example, can I top vit c with azelaic acid and alpha arbutin in the morning? Or can you suggest products which has combination of these products with a good formula?
Thank you for the video. Can you do a video that addresses seborrheic keratosis on the face. My hyperpigmentation is caused by this. I’d be interested in whether laser treatments are helpful. Retinol has kept them flat and small but topical treatments don’t seem to help with the pigment issue.
First congratulations on your beautiful milestone 🥂👏❤ and as some of the subscribers here said, would love to know how to incorporate the products you mentioned in this video in our AM/PM routines. Thanks 🙏
Hyperpigmentation is frustrating to deal with. For few years i have diligently used Timeless Vit C , niacinamide (in moisturizer) , tinted spf 50, 0.1 % Tret, and a whole tube of Topicals Faded (which has many of the ingredients mentioned in video). No change in the sunspots on my cheeks or melasma mustache. I will not use HQ because i dont want to deal with chance of rebound hyper pig. Now i might ask my derm for prescription azaleic acid to see if that helps
I have a similar situation. I’m considering lasers at this point. I don’t think topicals are working for me, and I’ve spend quite a bit of $ already with no results.
I do a laser 2x year (Lumecca works great for me) and religiously apply SPF 50 or higher. Tretinoin at night. That's it. Cheaper than buying all the products with all the ingredients. Lasers are amazing.
@@sarahowick5456 thank u for your reply! I have naturally tan skin and lasers tend to create more hyperpigmentation at the hands of inexperienced technician. I guess i need to search for provider who is experienced with POC
This is a good point. I wonder if there is a connection to any health conditions or vitamin deficiency that might be causing the stubborn hyperpigmentation
I wish she included product rwccomendations for some of the rarer over the counter products. I understand that some of these require a prescription but for the ones that don't, some options would be handy! Other than Niacinamide and Vit C as I feel confident that ahe has given us great reccomend ations. Also, I'm in Australia and as much as I would love to purchase her line of products, they don't ship to Australia so other options for similar products would be so helpful.
Hi Dr. Idriss! Question: I find Alezaic Acid not so much cosmetically elegant or pleasant under other skin care products or makeup. What would you recommend regarding application? Am or pm and as which step of the routine? Also, is there any brand that you prefer? Many thanks for another great and very informative video! 🙂
I'm a typical pale skinned, freckled redhead. I have had IPL and Fraxel many times and still find that even with sunscreen and avoiding the sun like crazy the freckles return in exactly the same spot they were zapped off.
Hi! I hope you can recommend or have a review on famous asian or korean skincares! Love your videos! Everytime i buy something for my skin, I always check the ingredients now hahaha
I would love to see an AM & PM skincare routine that uses these products to lighten/remove hyperpigmentation & melasma. So often we have all of the ingredients but we arent using them to their full potential due to lack of knowledge in layering or using other products that don’t pair well.

While using Retinoid at night can we use vitamin C cream in the morning with sun screen.? Kindly guide me
TOP 10 INGREDIENTS FOR HYPERPIGMENTATION/DISCOLOURATION/MELASMA :-
1)Sunscreen(SPF 30 OR MORE)
2)Hydroquinone.
3)Alpha arbutin.
4)Retinoids(avoid if pregnant)
5)Tranexamic acid.
6)Vitamin C.
7)Kojic acid.
8)Licorice root.
9)Azelaic acid.
10)Niacinamide(B3)

An AM and PM skincare routine would be awesome! Layering properly is so haaaard
You can use a natural Kojic Acid soap and it is good also as a mask/serum for your night and day routine. It is made by a company called Skinlyte.

I'm a typical pale skinned, freckled redhead. I have had IPL and Fraxel many times and still find that even with sunscreen and avoiding the sun like crazy the freckles return in exactly the same spot they were zapped off.
Thank you. I have sun spots and went on Tretinoin ( 1 year and a half so far) but they don't come off... I have better skin texture though.
Same for me.
Hi! I hope you can recommend or have a review on famous asian or korean skincares! Love your videos! Everytime i buy something for my skin, I always check the ingredients now hahaha
how about cysteamine? this seems to be a powerful ingredient as well for skin lightening.
