I really like that your videos have timestamps and that you put everything into certain playlist. It makes it so easy to find every topic Im looking for.
Thanks
I would love a dedicated video on your recommendations for Azelaic acid serums, moisturizers, or other products you feel will help melazma. You seem to have several videos where you mention the ingredient but not one that really highlights a number of different options. I’ve gotten such great products from your recommendations I don’t even want to try to research it myself!
Just an fyi people, the Maui shampoo and conditioner discussed here and the link is to Walmart, however Walgreens offers
The same products for almost half the price.
Differin has cleared up my melasma amazingly as well as my hormonal acne! Sunscreen daily throughout the day has definitely been a a great upkeep. 2 years strong with the differin ❤️
How long did it take the Differin to help with your melasma?
@@jencam2002 I honestly can't totally remember, but I do know that after about a year I was checking my skin in the spring when the sun started to come back out and my melasma on my forehead was completely gone and the melasma on the top of my hands was completely gone. It honestly worked like a miracle ❤️😊
Melasma, is that the brown spots on the face? I call them “age spots".. idk but I need them gone! My foundation will not stay on them spots.
@@lizaguerra6555 yes girl, sun and hormones are the two main causes I believe. I call them ugly freckles 😂
@@Crystallightclarity i have them big ones on my forehead, nose, and both sides of my face by my sideburns. I have white gray hair and they look darker when I haven’t dyed my hair in a while. That’s one reason why I haven’t gone just gray. Ima try differin hopefully it make them lighter.
All these suggestions were super helpful. I'm apprehensive on switching my hair products but I'll give these a go.
I love these recent Q&A vids💙. Have a great day! I thought your super Walmart stores in the states were so much fun to walk around in when I visited😅
Thanks for watching
Love the color of your sweater, its very complimentary to your hair & complexion
First! I enjoy these RUclips Q&As because I don’t always get to see your IG stories! Happy Wednesday!
Thanks for watching
I do love your Q&As! Agree, Walmart has stepped up their game and carries K beauty too. Happy Wednesday Dr.Dray 💕
They really have 👍🏼
Happy belongs to Friday,
Differin and reapplying spf thought the day every two hours has cleared up my cystic acne. My cystic acne was so painful and worst of all made me feel depressed. My face looked like i had huge craters all over.
In so glad I found Dr Dray and started using Differin.
Hi does it help with acne marks as well?
Happy Wednesday! Can you please review Yeouth products? I'm skeptical about their retionl serum.
Dr. Gray, thank you for doing the Q&A again! I’m concerned about how long I should use adaplene to cure acne and whether I’ll get breakouts after stopping adaplene. Thanks!
Your consistency is appreciated. Always look forward to your videos. Happy Wednesday Dr. Dray ☺
Thanks for watching
I think it would be nice to see your comments on shampoo and conditioners on your shop with me series.
So grateful to have found your videos, really saved my skin 🙏🏻💙
Love this format of quick Q&A with timestamps! Would you consider doing a video about stopping hormonal birth control and the possible skin side effects and product/medication recommendations? I recently stopped the pill after 20 years and the acne and oily skin are 😭😭.
Just in the past week or two she did a video on products for oily skin/to stop the shine. The cetaphil moisturizer is only .5% salicylic acid and is very gentle /suitable for sensitive skin. She also recommends some clay masks. Good stuff to soak up the oil slick! (my skin is shiny within 30 mins of washing)
Is differin good for anti-aging care? Thank you for such an insightful video
Hello to our queen of dermatology and evidence based, no BS skincare + lifestyle factors. Have a good Wednesday Dr. Dray 😊💗
Dr. Dray I discovered you a couple years ago and you have been a wealth of knowledge for me and my reluctant husband! Your random 90s song lyrics are the gift I didn't know I needed!
thanks! hope you are having a great week
Happy Wednesday Dr. D! I don't have acne so no differin for me. I do use Curology for aging and brightness. I just bumped up to .1% and I was out of my moisturizer so I've peeled a tiny bit today. I use the K beauty Sukayaka Suhada gel/lotion and my face feels like a baby's bottom! And, no flakes but I just got my refill yesterday. Have a great day!
Thank you Dr Dray! 💟💟 You are helping us folks out so much 🫂 Everytine I hear something good about a product before I buy, I’ll be at the store listening to your video first.
Very helpful! Thank you
I just have to post another comment, thank you so much Dr Dray, for explaining about hormones and acne, plus Differin and that it doesn't stop working. I understand now. 💖
happy Wednesday Dr Dray and everyone . Another wonderful and informative video . Have a wonderful love to mom and Tybee xoxoxoxo
Thank you! You too!
@@DrDrayzday 🥰🥰🥰🌻🍂🍁
Greetings Mary Ann Gonzalez hope u r well n Happy Wednesday😀👍💜….
Happy Wednesday, Dr Dray! Thanks for the shampoo recommendations. I love trying new shampoos and I'll definitely be giving the Maui Moisture one a try. As always, really appreciate all you do for us. Hope you have a restful evening. 💖
I love these videos! 💕
You always make videos when they are convenient to me 🥰
I remember when I went to a dermatologist and they prescribed me an expensive topical cream for acne…. When I went to pick it up and it was hundreds of dollars I said absolutely not… then the girl showed me to use Differin the same ingredients but not as potent as a prescription….glad she helped me out. The price of acne medications are outrageous.
Thank you for all of your skincare advice. Does Melasma fade after menopause and how do you differentiate between melasma and senile lentigens on the face. Can these be too light for lasers to be effective?
Consistency..100%. Thanks Dr. Dray..❤
I would love to know your thoughts on the garnier honey line, thé leave in conditioner has saved my hair 🍯
Happy Wednesday Dr Dray!
Happy Wednesday
Enjoying you posts very interesting thank you
Been using differin adapalene since May 2021. Using that and applying sunscreen everyday changed my life. My skin hasn't ever been this healthy 🥺❤
how long did it take to make noticeable changes? i'm planning to use adapalene on december bc i still have skincare i need to use up
@@tilllemonade5877 they're not kidding when they say it takes like 3 months. I didn't start seeing real results until August. My acne got worse initially but you have to stay the course and keep your routine to a minimum!
I started using Differin in mid July this year and my face was dry and irritated for a few weeks but it’s completely cleared my face as of today. Maybe one spot before my period but otherwise clear skin. That and sunscreen every day and washing with Benzoyl Peroxide face wash every morning.
@@atom7134 ugh i wish i won't have to go through that 😫😫
@@doxiemomma2014 thanks for the answer!
Kirkland moisture shampoo. 1liter - $8. Smells good, pump dispenser, luxurious lather. What else do you people need?
Hi Dr. Dray,
Would you consider doing a video on Aquagold microinfusion?
Skin By Dr. Azi has a video on this.
Thank you for your video! I wonder if you can do a topic on freckles. What skin care products do you recommend? How effective is BBL?
i have a video on that ruclips.net/video/_pX6Ks6ZmQU/видео.html
Been using Differin for over a year now. It has done wonders to my skin texture and brightness. Also reduced my acne dramatically, however I still break out sometimes.
Hi does it help with your acne marks as well?
Thank you. Great info.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much Dr.Dray! I think my acne re-occur because of the stress and I didn't have enough sleep. But I won't stop applying differin as I saw great result before. Not only that, I'm having severe hair loss, everytime I comb my hair, there's many hair stuck on the comb. Hopefully my stress will go away quickly.😢
Thank you for all these pearls of wisdom and for all that you do to inform us, Dr Dray! 💛🌞
Thanks for watching
Happy Wednesday Dr Dray....see you tomorrow x💙🤩🍂🍁
I don't know if they make a conditioner, but I am in love with Eucerin's calming shampoo with urea, lactic acid, and panthenol. It helps to clarify and lightly exfoliate scalp psoriasis, and it doesn't dry my hair.
I need to look out for that one 👍🏼
That sounds heavenly OMG
@@barbieblue3336 I haven’t tried the Gentle (it has fragrance), but I ordered the Calming off both Walmart and Amazon. I think Walmart had it for $30-35, and Amazon for $17-20. It’s much cheaper (and more convenient) that psoriasis prescription for the scalp, so it’s worth it to me personally. Maybe not worth the money to someone with healthy skin.
Ooh I need to try that. I live in the desert and the only thing that gets my feet soft is urea foot cream.
Hmmm might have to check that out
I needed this ❤️
Thanks for watching
Happy Wednesday Dr.Dray ♥️♥️
I wish we could get Differin OTC in Australia! It’s weird that we can get azelaic acid in skincare easily but not tretinoin. I l believe the reverse is true in the US? I am getting IPL for reduction of hyperpigmentation and skin rejuvenate currently. It has made a significant difference but have heard from friends that this won’t last, as you mentioned.
My favorite RUclipsr frfr
I need your opinion and recommendation on this Dr Dray. I am in my 20’s and have normal skin with no issue or anything I am concerned about. If I have to choose between neutrogena hydro boost gel moisturiser or cerave moisturising cream for everyday use which one should I go with?
Thank you 🙏
Dr. Dray, what is your opinion of Face Yoga to reduce fine lines and wrinkles. Especially the forehead wrinkles and the "11"?
Differin works amazingly for me! It helps keep away normal acne, however I still experience cystic acne around my period or under high stress.
the pyunkang yul low ph scalp shampoo is the greatest shampoo i have ever used, a tiny pit goes a long long way and the bottle is pretty big and the tea tree scent is to die for.
Hello Andrea.... I love these mish mash Q&A they are very informative.
I love the Maui Moisture shampoo! It leaves my hair soft and shiny. I can't stand the bottle though.
Can you make a video about people claiming they experience dark circles and collagen loss when using topical rogaine? I know you talked about it in length, but I’ve seen a lot of anecdotal stories of it causing people problems.
I have enjoyed Differin’s benefits for almost a year with great results . Recently , I broke out in the worse way, where I was covered all over my lower part of my face with these huge marble size, painful breakouts . I did a product detox and after weeks of healing and normal skin, I re-introduced Differin and again the breakout resurfaced. Is there a time when Differin can betray you and produce adverse effect to those originally intended? Needless to say, I plan on avoiding Doff, but when it works , it does beautifully so, I am preparing for the mental withdraws :(
Same here with differin. Huge painful breakouts after a year. Getting better when I stopped and getting worst when added back.
The same thing happend to me also, my skin was clearing soo well and all of a sudden i started getting breakouts on my forehead, but then i took a week break and then it was calm.
You should try differin’s benzoyl peroxide gentle cleanser! I use that once daily along with the gel. I would suggest using the cleanser as an over night spot treatment for those stubborn breakouts.
OMG THIS HAPPENED TO ME
Maybe try Retinaldehyde instead. Avene makes some that are in a moisturizer base.
Dr. Dray, can you review the Farmacy Deep Sweep 2% BHA or compare it to the PC 2% BHA ?
Happy Wednesday, Dr Dray 🌸🤍🎀
Happy Wednesday
Greetings Maricel Gundayao hope u r well n Happy Wednesday😀👍💜….
Dr. Dray what is your opinion of Augustinus Bader Products
I started using The Cream in the AM and before bed
It’s a wonderful moisturizer and it clears the occasional acne I get …at my age!
Can you safely use epiduo alongside a moisturizer that has AHAs?
Hi, would like to know is there any time frame to use arbutin, and if I stopped using arbutin, ll melasma gets worsen like hydroquinone.
Has Dr. Dray addressed high end shampoo like Redken or Moroccan oil versus drugstore?
Hi Dr Dray, would you say it is safe to wash your face of all your suncream in the eve a few hours before bed as long as the sun has gone down (I have long, thick hair and need to allow time for it to dry post my shower before bed!) Or would you say removing suncream right before bed is ideal, as UV rays may still be around even after the sun has gone down? Or would you say its safe if its pitch black outside?! Tho I guess I'll still have unprotected skin against the lights indoors? Thanku, PS I think u are fab!!!xxx
Happy Wednesday!
Happy Wednesday
On my cheecks it always looks (in some back-lightning) that I have closed comedones, but they are just bumpy hair follicles because of my beard. So is this some form of textured skin and I should use an (bha) exfoliant? I‘m using differin since 1 year and it helps so far
Can i use alpha arbutin with epiduo gel that contains adapalene and benzoyl per oxide both
help please Dr Dray, does applying Hyaluronic acid before another product like a vitamin c serum and sunscreen affect tge efficacy of the product. thank you and i am addicted to watching your videos.. love all the way from Egypt
HA applied before wouldn't necessarily have much affect. HA can help with penetration of ingredients if applied on top (this can cause irritation depending on the ingredient). Sunscreen should always be the last thing applied.
Do you have any recommendations for a lot of texture or lines on the lips? Not the area around the mouth. Thanks for the content
Paula choice lip booster
Dr Dray ...what about Nd:YAG laser for melasma? What are ur opinion on this type of laser therapy? As always a pleasure to watch ur videos🙏💜
I had Differin work in the past but it doesn't work well now. However, I use moisturisers now and didn't when I was younger. Could that be the difference? Probably.... however, I am not going to stop moisturising as I'm in my 50s!
please help, does differin help with keratosis pilaris on checks as well?
Head & Shoulders - clean & balanced has helped me with my oily scalp and hair fall. Could you comment on this shampoo
Would switching to tretinoin help?
Does benzoyl peroxide & salicylic acid also do nothing for hormonal acne?
Can you use Differin after application of polyglutamic acid?
Have you ever reviewed Loreal Midnight Serum?
It has fragrance which she wouldn't recommend.
can u do a video about inflamed acne on the cheeks?
I have videos on that
Bar shampoos and conditioners? I’m looking for less plastic in my bathroom.
I use an oat shampoo at the moment from Garnier in the UK rhat smells lovely! They are definitely cruelty free now according to CrueltyfreeKitty
I’m from the UK can you tell me the name of the shampoo please? Sounds great
@@monicaduncan7109 hi of course- it's the Garnier ultimate blends soothing shampoo for delicate scalp and hair. Says it has rice cream and organic oat milk in, about £2 in Boots plus in Tesco . They do a conditioner too. It's a white bottle with pale pink cap. Has fragrance obviously but not that methyzio something ingredient that dr dray says is bad. Hope this helps!
@@devonbear4979 I can’t believe I’ve never seen this before ..gonna buy both shampoo and conditioner 😊I have just bought the new calm and restore oat facial products from boots, so with that and now oat for my hair, I’m gonna be in complete oat overload ..lol 😂 thank you 😊
@@monicaduncan7109your welcome! lol not sure if it's the same one you got but I bought a boots own brand oat body wash and lotion that's really good too!
@@devonbear4979 yes I’ve tried the boots own band especially the cream in the tube is really nice … check out the Aveeno calm and restore range next ,they have a cleanser, toner, serum and gel cream moisturiser so lovely on the face and so soothing if you ever get irritation, I got them all for nearly half price off
Hi Dr Dray, huge fan of your work here. What would you suggest to target the hormonal aspect of acne safely? I've been using Differin for more than a year. My skin went through intensive purging for the first few months and did become better. However, I noticed before my period comes, I would have new acne breakout, which I feel is impeding my acne recovery process, adding new scars.
I am a single female and have no plans to get pregnant for the next 5 years at least. Should I consider being on birth control since my period is the reason why I always have new acne breakout? However I am concerned of the side effects on my health and thinking if it's worth it just to have clearer skin.
I also do admit that I can be be stressed out from time to time, but I can't help it and feel that it's part and parcel of life. Does it mean that I'll forever have acne if there's always gonna be stress in my life?
How I wish you're able to open for consultations internationally..😅
Have you heard of Spiro? It could be worth visiting your doctor or derm about. It’s commonly given to women with hormonal acne like me. Birth control fucked my emotions and health up really bad and so far Spiro hasn’t given me almost any side effects which has been lovely.
@@tohaovershell do you have any link on Spiro to share with me? is it a medicine or?
I would love to hear your thoughts on both Viori and Super Zero shampoo bars pleeeeaaassseeeeeeeeeee : )
You might be better checking out other channels for those reviews. I believe she once said about shampoo bars is that they don't contain the same agents found in regular shampoo to help prevent scum buildup that could lead to dull hair, itchy scalp/dandruff, etc.
@@db-gb5xi thank you so much! I''l try and check those ; )
Are there lasers that remove dark beauty spots on the skin?
I’ve been using over the counter Adapalene for over a year that I mix 50/50 with 2.5% benzyl peroxide and is the only thing that keep pimples from coming back. For moisturizer, I’ve had problems with heavy oil production and I hate being shiny. Putting some on makes me feel even more greasy so I don’t know what to do about that.
Hi does it help with your acne marks as well?
What do you think of vanicream cleanser and moisturizer? Why is cetearyl alcohol in everything and isn’t it bad for skin or hair?
She likes them. Check out her top 10 vanicream video. She and Lab Muffin have videos on alcohols in skin care as well.
@@db-gb5xi thanks!!
have a great Wednesday guys
happy wednesday
Was using differin for a year and had the smoothest cleanest skin of my life . Recently in august my face broke out and it’s been messed up ever since , even in October . It’s getting better since I’ve switched to retin a .
( I was also working out when I was on differin as well and I recently stopped since school started in august . So that could be another reason why I broke out )
Could you do a video on dyshidrotic eczema sometime in the future? I’ve tried everything and nothing has worked so far
She has a video on dyshidrosis, it that would help.
@@db-gb5xi thank you. I didn’t know. I will look for it
Dr.Dray❤
Happy Wednesday
Differin worked for almost a year and since a few months my skins been crazy, oily and I got my acne back...back to the dermatologist I go
I have the same problem with Adapalene! I had worst break out.
Now, I changed Cerave resurfacing serum. It’s less irritating and works wonders!! It really brighten up the skin tone and helps post acne mark.
How interesting! For me the resurfacing serum from Cerave is more irritating than adapalene
@@miriza2 oh! Really! Maybe depends on person then…do you use the same products routine when you use Adapalene and Cerave resurfacing serum?
Greetings Dr. Dray hope u r well n 🖐Hello Every1 n Happy Wednesday😀n what a Wonderful Vid…. thanks n This is Gonna B Good🔥👍n Continued Blessings to All💜….

Greetings Mary Ann Gonzalez hope u r well n Happy Wednesday😀👍💜….
Out of curiosity, have you checked out any of the Inkey List Hair products? I would live to hear your opinion on them.
I reviewed them
@@DrDrayzday you did my apologies. Thanks for sharing your knowledge I have learned so much.
IPL made my melasma much worse and gave me melasma where I hadn't had any previously. I also tried the pico laser and that one didn't make my melasma worse, but it also didn't help much at all. Not enough to justify the cost. Melasma is so tricky and seems to react differently in different people.
Could you talk about some Non nickel products. So many beauty products are loaded with nickel.
Will differin give results when applied in this order...1× a week(0.3 adapelene) 6× a week(20%Azelaic acid). Currently Im using 20% AzA only at night for comedonal acne(bumpy texture) and I see some difference but not big. Previously I used adapalene 0.1% daily for 5 months but it only gave me cystic acne(which Ive never had). So I stopped after five months. Nw I wish to start adapalene 0.3%. Is it a good idea?
Did you ever start differin 0.3%
I am using adapelene for one month but I have new breakouts not purging but breakouts what could be the possible reason that its not working for me?
Im going for my 2nd Fraxtel laser on my face to help reduce my melasma and aging - I’m lucky I’m pretty pale
Make sure you use wrap around sunglasses. Stay out in the shade as much as possible. Also use hats. Reapply spf every two hours. Apply spf at least 15 minutes before going out. Your melasma could get worse if you don't take these precautionary measures. I'm sure you already knew. Good luck!
@@victoriabrooke7970 yes I do I’m practically a vampire !
Happy Wednesday 😚😚😚
Happy Wednesday
Is it okay to use adapalene from differin in the morning and the neutrogena retinol fragrance free cream on at night?
From everything I’ve read & heard on these videos 1. Use retinol at night. It looses its potency if exposed to the sun, even with sunscreen, and works better at night anyway. Also, you can’t use 2 different retinol products.
What the previous comment said is true.
In the video she explicitly discourages using adapalene while alternating with retinol.
Hi my derma prescribed me adapalene. Also before applying it she gave me a solution with 4% salicylic acid yo double cleanse my face. She didn't prescribed me any moisturizer and she told me if skin feels irritated to put on a cream with chamomille to help calming down. Is she crazy? This goes against everything I searched online and I'm concerned, pls help
