Alezandra Davila - It has nothing to do with a product being drugstore or high end. Certain ingredients will be problematic for individual people, regardless of what a product costs or what pricing category it falls into. CeraVe doesn’t work for everybody, but there are dozens of other “drugstore” products to choose from, so there’s an affordable product for everyone. If the major brands don’t work for you, keep looking.

Anonymous Mouse yes I am an esthetician School just find that some products can be drugstore some no but if you are having acne and are using a drugstore routine for 12-26 weeks. Then maybe try to see if it’s your cleanser or moisturizer plus in Europe they sell a lot of drugstore stuff but over here you can’t get those things it has to be through a doctor but certain things you can do drugstore as long as you have no rashes I don’t see why not but usually when I see ppl it’s reactions it’s due to. Harsh acne cleanser so when I say hey buy a gentle one they like it and ask for more products in that line

A few years ago I read some beauty article where a doctor claimed that moisturizer makes your skin lazy. I decided to stop putting moisturizer on my naturally dry skin that hardly produces any oils for a whole summer. I walked around with BONE DRY skin for an entire summer waiting for my skin to stop being ~lazy~ and moisturize itself 😂😂 I will never forget how dry my face was that summer and how I begrudgingly accepted that my skin will just have to be lazy and “dependent” on moisturizers! Lol thank you Dr. Dray for debunking this crazy myth! Don’t stop wearing moisturizer if it helps you, people!

@tessfjhj4584 4 жыл бұрын
Stephanie M from personal experience I find oil cleansing for 10 minutes does remove oil plugs and even dead skin cells in a gentle way. I don’t find it dries my skin out. I get maybe bc if u leave the oil fully on your skin than maybe you can’t let hydration and moisture in. But in my opinion and experience I do prefer it to like physical exfoliation that’s a big no no.
@tanyas6643 4 жыл бұрын
Who has the time and patience to oil cleanse for 20 minutes, every night? Not me. I do this for maybe 2-3 minutes, rinse and then do another minute or so with a gel cleanser. That gets all my makeup, sunscreen, sebum and “environmental pollutants” off my skin and I can then apply nighttime skincare products. In the morning, I work the same gel cleanser into my damp skin, for 2 minutes.... and all is fine.

Last week I had my period and got like four pus filled pimples and didn’t want to pop them, and I oil cleansed for 15-20 mins and I was able to remove the plug/pus from 3 of them. But for everyday it is a lot of effort 😂

Great video! With respect to the 4th and 5th myths, Dr. Zein Obagi actively discusses and markets his ZO skincare line on those points. Tbh the before and after pictures from patients using his products are really fantastic and convinced me that his theory behind the use of moisturizer and also that his “medical grade” line of products are really great. However I’ve been looking at your videos for sometime and respect your opinion when it comes to skin and skincare. Apart from sunscreen I know you are an advocate for using a good moisturizer; and therefore I’m now torn by the conflicting views on same. Would be interested to hear your thoughts on ZO skin health.

Dr. Dray, thank you for addressing the moisturizer concern. I have had dermatologists caution me to stop using moisturizers. This idea has been widespread through the recommendation of Dr. Zein Obagi, M.D., a Beverly Hills-based dermatologist who has his own skincare line. Dr. Obagi believes skin gets addicted to replacement moisture and stops supplying its own hydration from within the body, and your natural hydration, he says, is what really keeps skin healthy and young. I have been trying to find the scientific explanation supporting this. Being someone who uses tretonoin, it was difficult to give up moisturizing my skin. Thank you for clearing this up!

I have a facial steamer but I don’t actually use it for skincare. I use it for when I get really bad colds and can’t breathe through my nose. It’s the best. I used to just jump in a hot shower but then the water would get cold soon and you already felt like crap from being so sick. You don’t have to worry about that with a facial steamer and it saves water compared to the long hot shower method (my facial steamer maybe takes a cup of water for 5 minutes of steam. Then, you just refill for longer steam time)

I wish I understood better how Myth #3 doesn't apply to retinoids. If your skin doesn't get used to ingredients, then how can skin build up a tolerance to retinoids over time? When I start using retinoids, my skin peels for the first couple of weeks and then calms down and seemed to "get used to it". I've had dermatologists tell me that that's normal. I'm curious how that works physiologically...

Hey Dr Dray, another question 😊 why do we have to ease into products like retinoic acid, if our skin doesn't get used to it? How does it understand it shouldn't react in an inflammatory way anymore?

The marketing spin is unbelievable. It's how makeup brands like Kjaer Weis get away with charging $50 for a shadow, because they sourced their "organic", "clean", "high quality" ingredients from Italy. So what are they implying? That every other ingredient out there is "dirty", "polluted", and "inferior"?

the thing about the steam and salicylic acid is that although I don’t purposely steam my face, the 1-2 times that i’ve used a cleanser with salicylic acid in it while in the shower, my face has felt like it was burning. Normally, my face never reacts to that cleanser, so I never use that product in the shower anymore.

That part about medical grade was quite interesting. Here where I live medical grade skincare is used to describe products like Skinoren or Dexeryl cream. Or sunscreens made specifically for people with sun intolerance. They're are registered as drugs, used to treat specific medical condition, they don't require prescription, have an actual research behind them, only necessary ingredients (no fragrance, millions of extracts and oils and vitamins), only scientifically proven claims on packaging (so no "anti-aging", no "skin feels softer"). And they are usually pretty cheap. Stuff like Skinceuticals is considered here as luxury brand, like La Mer or Biologique Recherche, no dermatologist would ever suggest to a patient to buy such an expensive product.
