- In this video I interview a dermatologist who raised a lot of eyebrows and some cheers among colleagues when she published a book called The Skincare Hoax in which she set out to debunk beauty myths and anti-aging fairytales dreamt up by marketeers.
Dr Fayne Frey is a New-York based board-certified dermatologist with over 30 years of experience of working with thousands of patients. She has a keen interest in chemistry and skincare formulation and as a result she founded the www.fryface.com/ website listing products that have been tried and tested and she says deliver against their marketing claims.
And in this interview we talk about the clinical experience and research that led her to the conclusion over what the real fountain of youth is when it comes to skincare.

A few viewers have asked how you can just wash off sunscreen with water as Dr Frey suggested she does. I emailed her to ask about it and have included her response below : )
Dr Frey said: Your viewers asked a great question. Topical skincare products do not build up on the skin. The cells on the skin surface are in a constant state of desquamation. In addition, sunscreen application, assuming the person applied the product liberally, has only been shown to last 6 - 8 hours, based on science. (This doesn't include if the person wearing it is sweating, swimming or wiping it off during sport in which case it lasts for a much shorter period of time, probably less than 2 hours.) With that being said, most people apply their sunscreen in the morning. The majority of folks don't reapply. Those who do reapply, usually do so midday. Since the sunscreen only remains on the skin surface for 8 hours, a nightitme facial wash with water at bedtime is all that I recommend. And I have no scientific proof that washing just with water is even necessary.
I never use a cleanser and I apply sunscreen every morning and most afternoons. If an individual wishes to wash their face with a soap-free cleanser in the evening to remove the dirt, oil, sebum, and every bit of any topical product they had applied that day, that's fine. But there is no scientific proof that it 's necessary. Keep in mind they will also be removing the vital lipids and proteins that are necessary to keep the skin hydrated. Unfortunately, cleansers are drying. They are designed to remove things and they don't discriminate. They remove the unwanted and wanted particles on the skin. Hope this answers your question.
Actually, it’s still does not. I do reapply sunscreen, true it is mid day when I do so, but it definitely is still on my skin at the end of the day. I can see it on my washcloth when I wash my face. And water is definitely not enough to get it off. I feel like if I did not take it off completely that it would be unhealthy to leave it on my skin. It definitely does not absorb into the skin. It lays on the top of the skin. I use natural mineral sunscreen. I use the tinted version on my face. I use the untinted for my neck and décolleté. Neither product comes off without soap.
Thank you very much for the reply, though. I was definitely curious what would be said.
I think the doctor left out the use of a mechanical aid like a facecloth or sponge. I doubt she meant just splashing water on your face?
@Mary Faulkner What about burns leading, potentially, to skin cancer? I agree that sunlight can help some ppl with depression. While being out in the sunshine is naturally uplifting, I understand it is the sunlight entering the eyes where receptors help the brain make chemicals (hormones?) that are necessary to combat depression. I’m not medically trained, but I think Andrew Huberman has a video on the connection.
That said, I believe limited sun exposure W/O sunscreen is reasonable barring sunburns.
I actually use sunscreen OBSESSIVELY, especially after my dermatologist attributed my fairly young-looking skin to my diligent sunscreen use. I really don’t mess around. So, for me, there IS a SERIOUS build-up on my skin after 6-8, .5 teaspoon applications of tinted, mineral-based sunscreen by the end of the day! It’s to the point where it’s a chore getting it off and I even end up just leaving some of it on me as a result. Oh well. Can it really hurt? I don’t know. I am going to try different products to help remove it, as I think leaving it on can block other actives like a tretinoin product from getting fully absorbed into the skin. Aside from that, the skin has to BREATHE.
I got the sunscreen application routine pretty much down. It’s the sunscreen REMOVAL that I don’t yet have down. I mean, it’s a mess - it’s all in my ears, behind my ears and even in my hairline. I can see why people do not use enough sunscreen often enough!
Great answer on “good old sunshine” :)
I been using Tretinoin for 5 years and I can honestly say i look younger at 58 than when i was 48..it's taken years off my face, I've never had any adverse reactions including peeling but, I'm an exception to the rule. That being said, i used retinol prior to Retin A, and also had great results but, know your ingredients and sunscreen diligently. Great interview Claire 😊
Me too. Totally works.
My friends has ONLY used water and sunscreen on her face for over sixty years and she is gorgeous. My grandmothers used Ponds cold cream tissued off at night and a cold water splash in the morning. They all looked beautiful. I have travelled third world countries where the women do not have skin care routines and do not eat processed foods. Again- they look beautiful.
I discovered Pond's Cold Cream wayyyy back in the early 70's (I'm 68). I would smear it all over my eyes to melt my waterproof mascara; I'd wipe it off after an hour, and noticed over the years it was great for eye wrinkles. I'd wake up in the morning and my skin was soft and plumped. Now that I'm nearly 70 and my skin has become drier, I put it all over my face and neck at night, and by morning it's soft. People always tell me I look very young for my age too.
I’ve only used water and made my own creams ( Shea, coconut, rose hips etc) for years. No face make up. I’ve been careful about sun exposure more often than not. I only smoked very little till the age of 32 and I quit. My 67 yo skin looks like crap. I’m sorry I didn’t take a more aggressive approach to skin care earlier.
@Karen Tralies When I was young I did have oily skin, and only used Pond's Cold Cream around my eyes. Now that I'm nearly 70 though, my skin is drier.
They have lots of sunshine and good natural food, colder climates obviously don’t have that
I have simplified too. Just kept the micellar water to take off eye makeup. Then sunscreen in the day, and Cerave cream at night. That's it.
I am 74, and have skin as good as my mother had who only put on Ponds cream every day and looked great. Celtic skin.
She makes a lot of good points about taking a more holistic approach to skincare. One point I disagree with-I do think it’s important to use cleanser if you’re using sunscreen daily.
I agree as many sunscreen filters are oil soluble and sunscreens in general are emulsions. Lukewarm water is not enough for me to get it off fully.
Me too.
My sunscreen is definitely still visible on my face since I apply twice a day. I cannot go to sleep with all of that on there! I do a double cleanse and that doesn’t dry out my skin at all. I do use mostly mineral sunscreens so it is easy to see on my face.
Especially mineral sunscreen. There is residue even after washing.
And also if we live in a really metropolitan area. Lots of city toxins floating around that I don't want to leave on my skin.
I love the conversation!! And your sense of humor, ladies! Thx!
I truly love your channel. Keep doing the best work ❤️
Fantastic informative video Claire. Thank you so much.
Thank you for these interviews and for your investigative work, Clare. This is my favorite skincare channel (and there are a lot to choose from). Please keep the good and varied information coming. I’m a big fan.
Really appreciate that - thank you for your support!
Dr Frey is a breath of fresh air. Centered and realistic, kudos to her.
I love this Dr. She is absolutely spot on. I quit working in high end/prestige beauty because of all the bs playing on consumers insecurities to make $. I now work in a drugstore selling inexpensive skincare. And I can tell you from my own experience that I saw better results with these products than with the pricey ones. I dont know how I feel about not using a cleanser as I have to with the make up I wear. I do tell all my customers that if you're not going to wear sunscreen than you're just wasting your money on other skincare. Love this video/interview.
Thank you Michelle
What is the best sunscreen to use?
Absolutely LOVED this interview, Dr Frey is fabulous as are you Claire for bringing these experts to CZcams ❤❤❤
Thank you!
Thank you Linda
This was excellent!! Definitely going to pick up the book and check out the site. Thank You so much.
Thank you Tina.
Brilliant video. Thank you!
I’ve used tretinoin for 10 yrs. I think probably most people can’t push pass the beginning of using tretinoin because of irritation and flacking of the skin. Takes time and determination to adjust to it, but when the results begin to happen it is well worth it. My skin is thick, pores don’t exist and not one age spot on my face and neck.
It took me 2 years to adjust to trentinoin. My chin,lips and tip of my nose was red and peeling in parts on most days for 2 years. It was so worth it.
tretinoin is amazing it takes the dead skin off fabulously. I used it very sparingly around my eyes and I don't have deep eye wrinkles now and I'm in my 70's. I think if you mix it with moisturizer it's less harsh.I started using it in my teens because I had bad acne.Very pricey in a tube now.
So true 😂. I would be in my office meeting coworkers and just by talking and moving my face muscles my face would peel lol. I stuck through it 8 years later, I alternate between Differin which is a lot cheaper and over the counter.
Yes.. It took my skin 2 years to finally see the results WITHOUT the drying and flaking... So glad I HUNG IN THERE!!!👍🏻
Thanks for another brilliant interview. You look fantastic!!!

Another very interesting interview!
Love this! ❤ So interesting. Thanks, Claire!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks ladies for the info.
Glad I dropped in. Learned a lot... Wow....
Another amazing interview…thank you
Thank you!
Really enjoy your content. I find it helpful to hear a variety of viewpoints when deciding how to best maintain my health.
Great to hear!
😍
This was SO illuminating! I tried Tret for several years off and on, and it only disrupted my skin and caused worse hyperpigmentation and sensitivity. I’m now trying to correct issues I didn’t have before starting. Thank you for this interview🙂.
Great interview. Thank you. I love dr. Fry’s attitude and her skin is amazing!
Thanks Kathy!
Thank you for your kind sentiments Kathy.
I'm very grateful for these discussions thank you!

Your channel is incredible. I love it!
Thank you! So glad you enjoy it ❤️
What a lovely, lady Dr Frey is. Thanks a million Claire.
Thanks for watching!
This is so sensible. I just started watching skincare videos and they all seem like salespeople to me. No one mentions all the ingredients. I mix olive oil and sugar and only use that on face and body to cleans, never soaps. I experimented with oils and found some I love: apricot oil, jojoba, coconut, cocobutter, etc. No fancy concoctions with chemicals for me. Common sence.
Dear Clare - I couldn't love this interview and/or subject any more! 100% on point!
I think it is so imperative to truly understand that ultimately skin health is part of whole body health. And much like you and Dr. Frey touched on, the saying "you are what you eat" most definitely applies to skin as well!! I know personally, my skin is infinitely better when I skip sugar for a couple of days.
I will never understand how people take a drug (steroids) for a side effect from another drug (tretinoin). But I think that speaks volumes to the marketing power of pharma. And understanding that inflamation is the number one cause of skin aging, why would anyone do this to their skin? Sun damage also is simply inflammation caused by the sun. That is why sun protection is so important.
I am now 54, and went on this journey about two years ago. I think I mentioned to you on another one of your posts about Dr. Julia Hunter, and her "whole"istic approach. Her philosophy and attitude towards skincare and marketing is exactly this! All about tested, clean, healthy and healthful ingredients. About treating the body as a whole, including nutrition and excercise, as well as mental health and stress relief!
I was such a skincare junkie, always on the hunt for the next great 'IT' product. About a year ago, over a few days I binge watched her YT channel, all her videos that speak of the relation of our diet to our skin, the harmful ingredients in many high priced, and also many so called 'clean' brands. Just submerged myself in exactly this subject. ... For the past year, I have used her products exclusively, and my skin has never looked or felt better. I do also use Truth Treatments 5% Retinol serum twice a week.
I would love for you to take the "sunscreen" subject a little further. There has been quite a bit of recent (or recently published) research of especially chemical sunscreens being more damaging than beneficial. I personally have only used physical suncreens for the past two years, and would never put a chemical on my skin ever again.
One step further would be the research that it is because of our diet that we even need sunscreen in the first place. The additives in our food that make us susceptible, and that centuries ago people did not need sunscreen, because the food was so rich in antioxidants, minerals and vitamins. ... Truly mind blowing when you start down the rabbit hole :)
Dr. Hunter actually also mentions some of the brands that are listed on Dr. Frey's site as having some toxic ingredients. So that would be a whole other video.
Thank you for providing actually valuable content! I think we all need to realize what a privilege aging HEALTHFULLY is. Our skin is our largest organ, and it is imperative that we feed it with care.
I'll definitely look into sunscreen more closely and do a video on it because a lot of people are asking about chemicals in sunscreens etc.
Which physical sunscreen do you use ? I just can’t deal with the white cast that seems impossible to fully work into the skin .
@@SleeplessinOC I don’t use sunscreen every day - and that’s a whole other discussion about researching the sunscreen debate.
When I do, I use Plumscreen fro Le Prunier. Some of the zinc and titanium in some physical sunscreens can also be harmful. Plumscreen is the only thing other than home made that I will use. Truth Treatments also has an excellent ZnO Block. It doesn’t say that it’s a ‘sunblock’, but that’s what it is.
Hope this helps. Best of luck
Amazing interview, I'm definitely getting her book!!
Also, I love your hair in the intro!❤
Thanks Sarah!
Thank you Sarah. I hope you enjoy the book!
Great interview! Looking forward to exploring the website! Thank you both!
Thank you Jill
My girlfriend is 58 and only uses sunscreen! She looks 20 years younger! Amazing
Thank you Clare, another take on aging, I find it informative and I'm glad I found you. I'm almost 58 and I've been using spf every day for about 10 years now, before that only on holidays. But eventually I got the "message" and raised my 24 year old daughter with spf every day. My pick is LaRochePosey anthelios 50+ uv mune 400.
Thanks Marleen. I've known for years that it's important but I think I'm only just beginning to realise just how important it is - and what a massive difference it can make when it comes to anti-aging for our skin. You've done the right thing by raising your daughter to wear it daily. Wish I had used it when I was younger.
Hope your Vit D levels are ok

FANTASTIC video claire !

Thank you so much this talk was absolutely liberating.
So glad!
Awesome! Both you and the fact that you feel liberated!!! Thank you for your feedback!
Hello Clare from Illinois, U.S.A. I'm a new subscriber who has been using various sunscreens for 49 years. When I was twenty, I read an article in one of my mother's magazines that described the discovery about daily sunscreen use as an aging preventative. I'm now 69 and people are shocked when they find out how old I am. In the 70's, all I had was Coppertone SPF 4, so I used that on my face every morning under my makeup. I have used Eucerin Daily sunscreen lotion, SPF 30, for years. It is the only thing I put on my face in the morning under my makeup, mostly due to its non-irritating, lightweight and silky texture. The real key to choosing products is how they make your skin feel. We need things that we will happily and consitently use.
This is amazing 😍
I know I’m a little late with my comment. This was a fantastic video. Very informative. I would love to get Dr. Frey’s opinion about skin supplements like OneSkin and DNA recovery like Photozyme MD. And all of the other products that the beauty industry is shoving down our throats. I hope she comes back. I love your channel, and I am a subscriber.
Thanks Clare, that was just what I needed to hear. I have had persistent perioral dermatitis and I decided to try leaving my skin alone. I haven’t cleansed or put anything on my face for two days and my skin is looking so much better! The amount of products out there is overwhelming and I have shifted my focus to sleep, exercise, diet and stress management. I agree with Dr Frey about laughter ❤😂
@lindsayfarquharson, you say you haven't cleansed or put anything on your face for two days but did you wash it with soap and water , explain please.
I take borage gummies! Got hair & skin Nordic naturals
I cannot thank you enough for this!
Thank you for making this video. It’s the truth we don’t want to hear…yet we need to
I’m going to a dermatologist after watching your channel. Love your channel
So glad you find it helpful ❤️
Loved this!!!!!Leave a New Yorker to "land the plane"!!
I loved this program and could not admire and respect Dr. Frey more; she is a true scientist with integrity. I appreciate Dr. Frey's discipline, no nonsense approach and honesty.
Thanks for watching!
This doctor is 100% correct! I worked for The Journal of Drugs in Dermatology and know some of the best derms in the world. MANY use very little on their skin aside from sunscreen. They understand that the skin's microbiome and Ph is self regulating and, aside from inflammatory conditions, should not be disturbed. I have been told many times by derms that they would never advise their skincare routine to their patients. Most simply use an oil to cleanse and sunscreen. I always found this comment strange.
Very interesting!
Thank you for sharing. I do wear makeup most days. Do you know what oil to use to remove makeup. Recommendations plz & thank you 🌻
@@blueeyedbb7777I use Babyoil and then Micellar water ... I get awesome results
Thank you for this liberating and scientific talk.
Thank you so much for always bringing great content. I would really like a conversation around the connection between chemical sunscreen and hormonal health. I am a sunscreen user - I am finding it hard to find a good mineral one but dabble in both types - and I am wondering when it comes to our hormones, if the benefits far outweigh the disadvantages in this regard.
I will look more closely into chemicals in sunscreen and do a video.
@@thehonestchannel It gets pretty confusing with conflicting information available but it’s a really important topic (even unsexier than just talking about the benefits of sunscreen) that doesn’t receive enough attention. So thank you and I look forward to it.
Malin & Goetz has a lovely non tinted physical sunscreen
Great info!! Why spend hundreds of dollars on purchasing products that are just over marketing their ability to prevent aging. Dr. Frye, thank you!!
You are very welcome. Thank you for you kind words.
Love the quote: “Discussing Sunscreen is not sexy.” But you know what is - EXPERIENCING its irrefutable benefits. Terrific Discussion!
Thank you for this very informative video. What was omitted, however, and what generally is omitted in the many conversations about the pros and cons of tretenoin use, is that one can use non prescription versions of retinoids (retinol, for example, found in many relatively inexpensive products) which, although they take considerably longer for notable effects, can really help (in my experience, at least) with the fine lines and lack of skin elasticity inherent in aging, with significantly fewer side effects.
I am 73 years old and have used sunscreen on my face and neck 365 days a year for more than 30 years. I briefly tried retin A in my late 40s but stopped because of impatience with redness and dryness. My skin remained very youthful in appearance with just daily SPF and moisturizers as needed, but I did notice some fine lines 5 -6 years ago and decided to add retinol at first daily and now 4-5 times a week. The lines vanished over a one year period and, in all honesty, my skin continues to look remarkably young. It does not appear that my facial skin has aged at all in 5 years.I suspect retinoid products may do a better job moderating change for people without severe signs of aging than in correcting deep wrinkles and significant aging, but I don't know if studies have looked at that specifically.
Just my thoughts, but I am also an MD and have done some study review.
Good point and it is one that is made by Dr Qian Xu who has appeared on my channel a few times. Her protocol is to start off with tretinoin and then step down to a higher strength retinol.
@Dolores Leonard. You have done exactly what I have done for 40 years. I discovered sunscreen in 1980 and can quite categorically say I have never gone a day without using it on my face. I am 70 and my skin is line free. I have an 11 between my eyebrow but everything else is good. I have used Retin A on and off since 1989, sometimes going for years without but the last 5 (like yourself) 4 or 5 times a week. The best I have found by a mile is the L'Oreal Pure Retinol Serum. It's amazing. The last few months I have also been using Adipeau as I noticed small indentations in the centre of my cheeks. The Adipeau is filling these out. It does seem quite remarkable. But the only thing I would keep of choice is the SPF 50. That is the Holy Grail. Every day all the way!
@@acechadwick Try a silicone patch at night on the 11. I think they help train your facial muscles also, not to over emote, during the day. Another little trick I found is the inexpensive plastic "retainer" on cheap whitening products. It gives definition back to the area surrounding the mouth! Tho whitening effects are dubious lol.
@SoundofSilence Ooh good one! Thank you. How long do you keep the retainer in? I love tips like this!
Thank you for your informative comment.
BOTH OF YOU HAVE LOVELY SKIN!!!!
I’d like to hear her thoughts on eczema. Both adult and baby
I’m a Tretinoin (rx) fan girl. It reversed all the lines & discoloration from using tanning beds & sunbathing since my early 50s. Am 60 now and I credit careful use of tret for my youthful-again complexion- plus ceasing tanning & faithful application of LRP sunscreens- 40 SPF or higher. I do need gentle cleansers twice a day since I STILL have oily skin…otherwise my skin breaks out. At 60 ugh.
Glad somebody finds tretinoin cream beneficial
really good!
I have used retin A for decades . It works for me . Good diet is also essential. All things work together, topicals and healthy food intake.
Great video! I am one of the ones going back and forth about what I "need" It was fun at first, but I feel it has become excessive now.
I hear you!
You don't "need" anything more than suscreen, moisturizer, and a gentle cleanser. You can find what works for you via Dr Dray's channel.
Another great video!
So glad to hear that I am not crazy😊Totally agree with you and at 72 I just dont need all the hype! Only sunscreen! Thank you💖
I just LOVE this!
So pleased to hear it!
Thank you!
I am 55 and I’m mistaken constantly for 40 . I have hardly ever washed my face with cleansers. I’ve sometimes used oils to clean or a mud mask when I know I’ve used non water soluble product. I eat really well , intermittent fast and work out. My favorite skin product that has actually visibly done something is Adipeau and my favorite product I trust is helping is SPF . I never used it when I was younger but I believe it’s never too late to start and it will all make a difference. Side note : I look younger now than I did in my 40s . Your channel is amazing and I love that you find amazing experts that bring out their truths even though it may go against the grain. How else are we to continue progressing?
Glad you enjoy the channel and thank you for your support!! Thanks too for sharing what works for you 🥰
It's great that you have good genes. However it doesn't prove that anti aging products don't work.
I wasn't blessed with good aging genes, and I can say the Adipeau is the only (non SPF) product that's made any improvement. It's a really great product that I would never have known about, if not for Clare/Honest Channel. 😊
Interesting interview with very pertinent comments regarding lifestyle, however, I cant imagine getting rid of my generously applied sunscreen with just water.
Clare, great interview. I have been looking at all my products and thinking this is too much. Lol I have stopped buying expensive ones cause honesty I haven't noticed any difference. Lol
I hear you!
Annie, so glad you enjoyed the interview. Clare is quite the professional and makes it very easy. Let me assure you, after testing products for many years, there is no correlation between the cost of a cosmetic moisturizer and well it works. Stay well!
I’m 62 and my skin looks pretty good for my age. It was not always the case. I had acne as a teenager, back in those days the dermatologists used to break the pimples, therefore many scars. I used Clinique for over thirty five years and then one year I had major eczema on my eyelids and under eye. I heard about CeraVe and tried it’s products. The only product that healed my severe eczema. I use Elta sunscreen too. No creams for wrinkles etc. my facial skin has calmed down and looks pretty good. It looks like when I simplified my routine my skin thanked me. I also take vitamins that I need. ❤️
Wow - thank you for doing this interview. She was so informative and you are always a delight.
I would like to hear what she has to say about skincare with active ingredients - things like peptides and growth factors and vitamins, though I suspect she would say something like “if you like them, use them, but only drugs approved by the fda can actually treat a skin condition” but we know that salicylic acid treats acne.
I realize I’m sounding argumentative - and that’s not my intention at all - I just need to hear a meaningful discussion about how we might use these over the counter products to enhance skin health going beyond beauty.
I do appreciate you and the experts you interview very much.
Good suggestions there!

@@violetviolet888
I’m familiar with that doctor’s channel, and of course Doctorly and dr Sam something, Dr Young, Dr Rajani, and dr Shereen - there are lots of dermatologists and plastic surgeons who don’t have other people on their channels to have discussions and debates.
One of the things I really love about the Honest Channel is the host is a journalist. As a journalist, she approaches the subject and her guests with curiosity instead of foregone conclusions.
The person you’re recommending is really not my cup of tea. I find her personal attacks against people really distasteful and unprofessional.
I have a science background - it’s important to stay curious and respectful when discussing topics even when the topic is in your particular area of expertise.
Fabulous interview. We need to start loving how healthy ageing naturally looks. I think a healthy, confident, ageing lady is more beautiful than someone lacking confidence and obviously had loads of work and looks stretched and lifted. Natural is perfectly beautiful!
And the interviewer is beautiful at 50! Thank you….your channel is amazing!
🥰
Color Science Sun Screen is my faborite!
The doctor has good points. I see improvement using tret because maybe I have problems more than just for anti aging benefit to begin with. And don't forget the genetic part. For those blessed people, they can go minimalist. It does not really apply to me. I was minimalist for more than 20 years enough to see the damage and seek help from skincare products.
❤️Wow…her take on Tret is so much better than that abrasive guy‼️…she has such a great message…and doesn’t sell anything, so I’ll listen to her. Love her take on marketing, chemicals etc. Went to her website…wonderful ‼️
Thank you so much!
This reinforces my idea that staying at a low-potency retinoid is better, for me, than trying to ramp up the chain.
I enjoyed this interview..some good points made-especially sunscreen! No need to fix if you don’t do damage!!
Different topic.. a few videos back you mentioned what collagen supplement you used and I don’t remember which video! I’m really enjoying the one I am using, especially because it has zero taste and is easy to add into coffee. Would you mind sharing which one you are using and if it has a flavor. I’m so happy with the changes I’m seeing with it…and look forward to any help getting something possibly better! Thanks ..really enjoy your channel!!🎉
how long have you been using your collagen before you saw changes?
Glad you enjoyed the interview. I'm using Codeage Multi Collagen Peptides powder. It does have a slight taste because it isn't flavored but I can't taste it if I stir it into coffee or into Greek or natural coconut yoghurt with my breakfast. I'm planning to do a video about collagen powders in the next couple of weeks.
@@keinohrtini 2 weeks I noticed my knee no longer hurt when doing my daily walk and I have now stopped using a sleeve on that knee for stability. My skin was less dry and refreshed looking after a month…same for my nails and hair which grows like a weed after 2 months. I’m now 4 months in and my energy and mood have greatly improved. Being older, the increased protein reminds me to be more aware of my intake and that helps my muscle strength. I will not be without it. I would say a few weeks to start seeing changes… I feel it is worth every penny I spend.
(PS..I also gave up ALL added sugar and refined foods and no alcohol. I think that helps with getting rid of puffiness and dehydration. I am almost a year with those changes which I think helps too)
@@Barb6106 thank you for sharing! I only recently found a way to consume collagen without the taste. I am not a coffee drinker and only now I realized I can dissolve it in tea too! 😂
@@keinohrtini hooray! Anything to get it in…adding to protein drink works well too.
I hope you are doing well with it!
Just found your channel! Love it!!!You have to ease into vitamin A derivatives.
There are gentler ones and stronger ones. Tretinoin is the strongest. You don’t start with that. Start with retinaldehydes or something even gentler. You can also buffer it with moisturizers. Just my take based on experience. Also I think we need to start looking at other spf formulations.. I have heard other countries do better than the USA. Like Korean ones but I am just learning about that. Maybe do a video on that!!
Great advice about building up. I used a retinal before moving up to a low strength tretinoin and then moved up in strength. I did see an improvement in fine lines but my skin couldn’t keep up with it and looked dry and a bit stressed so I went back to retinal.
This was eye opening sadly I've been anti sun screen but no more
Glad you found it helpful.
Very very interesting! Thank you for lifting the heavy load from our shoulders . Honestly my grandmother never used anything on her face apart from an olive oil home made soap ( very Lebanese )and she was glowing till the last minute of her life .
🔆 I just love it
Same wih my Greek aunty, Her skin was divine even in her 80s. I haven't been too fussy either, until recently when everything has become a fad. Although always tried to use moisturisers without chemicals which brings me to the subject of sunscreens, don't most of them have yukky chemicals inside? I've just started with sunscreen and just turned 60. But told I look late 40s. In Asia we cant get tretinoin so I use a French brand A313. No irritation whatsoever. I think it's another kind of retinol which is much more gentle and doesn't make my skin sag like the harsh one from boots, No. 7.
What is the brand name of the French product you use?
@@esthermccormack A313
I appreciate your bringing her to us, but I'm going to take my own advice on this one. I'm 56 and always mistaken for younger than that and can definitely see the difference even 0.025 tretinoin makes in my skin. It is definitely smoother with less blotchiness, and I get hardly any flaking so long as I use a moisturizer over it that is made for dry skin. I may only do it for a year, since I understand you get maximum effect in about that time, but may decide to just keep going since the only downside is not being able to use an even stronger active like glycolic acid those nights I use tret. I have a feeling this doc wouldn't want us using the acids either, so no way to get ahead there.
But yes, most of the youthfulness I display now comes from many years of avoiding most sun damage. You can definitely see the spots on my skin where I wasn't doing a good job due to how straw hats were rubbing off the sunscreen without providing complete coverage to that area. It's just that going forward, I'm at an age where more is needed for repair, not just prevention.
And I definitely notice that I get clogged pores, bumps, and blackheads if I don't wash with a facial cleanser at least once a day to get off the grime and products from the day.
I can at least appreciate her minimalist stance though, being sure to ask ourselves what's actually making a difference for us and focusing just on that. I'm finding more and more things that make a difference these days, based on having enough damage to see improvements being made. I tried a new product combo this weekend that blew me away. It was one sent to me for free with a Medicube device I bought. I now don't want to ever be without that combo, which completely eliminated my forehead wrinkles overnight. Not permanently, but I'd never seen where you do something one day then wake up the next day with absolutely smooth skin where it used to be a bit crepey. I give this as an example to say, let the games continue.
So intriguing! Would you mind sharing the name of these products? Are they for sale to the general public? Thank you! ☺️
I hear you, and I don't think I could cut back that much on skincare either - I enjoy it too much!
@@stephanieilluzzi7355buy the medicube device or check their website. 😅
But I’ll check on the doctor’s website whether l la Roche Posay SPF are listed at all and how high/low. I’ve used them only, “age correct “for over half a year. I’ve bought cerave’s but it’s too light for my dry skin . Thank you again!
Babyganics is the only sunscreen I use. Have used it for 10 years. It works very well as a primer under my foundation.
I love that one too.
So interesting
What about nebulyft I think its making me sick my head feels weird and microcurrent gives me headaches
What kind of cloth is best for facial skin for cleaning?
Fully agreed with dr Frey~~~ I try to avoid as much sun exposure and has been including tomatoes in my diet (contains lycopene that gives us UV protection) Took ‘em in the evenings as it takes couple hours to breakdown in the body. I do notice my overall skin legit gets fairer. Recommend beauty of Joseon sunscreen to apply during daytime :))) *** must try beauty of Joseon ginseng water***
I wash my hands with soap/cleanser. Why wouldn't I do the same with my face? I use a mild cleanser to remove dirt, pollution, etc. I guess she never rode the subway in New York.
I love Tretinoin and I love sunscreen. My favourite sunscreen is Mad about Skin spf 50. Can be purchased in the UK online. Thanks for a very interesting video.
Great to hear - thank you!
Great video Clare, very interesting. I use Dr. Denese tinted day cream spf 40. It's very nice and blends in with your skin tone and is very emollient too. Dr. Denese has very nice products for both anti aging and just regular simple maintenance. Another product I liked was the Vichy brand. Easy to get in CVS and has nice results. Thank you for clearing up some of the mystery surrounding skin care. 🙏💕
Thanks for sharing your experience!
Sunscreen no matter whether its mineral or chemical, when used on my face, it makes my eyes nearly jump out of their sockets. Also, what do you use when the damage is already done?
Gill what works for me is: Take the sunscreen up to the bone under the eye socket and then I use Burt Bees 40% zinc diaper cream (which doesn't sting around the eyes). It's a phenomenal sunblock but it does leave a white cast. However I then put make up on top and you can''t see it.
Sunscreen to me is super easy but we all need to have a very clean one. The wrong ones can actually cause skin cancer
I agree l have barely gotten sun on my chest and it still does look like 20 years young person chest.
Claire, your skin does look amazing! I finally gave up on Tretinoin a few months ago, after trying off and on for 30+ years...my skin looks better than ever now.
Thanks Dana! Great to hear your skin is happy : )
This was so interesting, Clare! While I agree that sunscreen protects against photoaging, what about those of us who did not have effective sunscreens in our childhood? I played outside year 'round, got burned in the summer frequently, and have wrinkly spotty skin to show for it. I started using weak SPF when they became available, so since my 30s I've been religious about SPF. I'm so confused now if there is anything I can do to make it look better at 75. Regarding cleansing, if we use a lot of mineral SPF and water-resistant SPF, don't we have to use a cleanser to get it off? Or, are we supposed to just build up layers and layers of SPF over the years? What about using oil to break up water-resistant SPF and tinted SPF-- is that out the window, too? Oh so many questions! I bought her book. Thank you for searching for interesting people to interview!!!
Glad you found the interview interesting. I should have asked her which sunscreen she uses and if she just washes it off with water. I will email her with the question though!
@@thehonestchannel
Hey Claire, I Love your channel!
Would you possibly review mineral sunscreens from companies that are ONLY Cruelty Free please? And maybe some from lesser known, small businesses. And also one's that don't have ANY crap ingredients like methyl/propyl/ parabens, or silicone? And maybe recommendations of one's best for day-to-day, limited sun exposure, & other's more suited to for a long day of sun exposure?
I find it Really disheartening that MANY, if not MOST beauty vloggers review makeup & skincare products that aren't cruelty free, yet have pets, that apparently they love; there is this disconnect to the pain & suffering of animals that are so CRUELY used in the testing of these products. The ONLY beauty vlogger that I am aware of that has Banned reviewing ANY Non-Cruelty free product is Elle Leary.
If EVERY beauty influencer banned together & Flat out Refused to review Any Non-Cruelty Free product, the industry would be FORCED to change, & change Quickly! This day & age they absolutely rely on beauty influencers to sell their products.
If EVERY influencer was made to watch a video on the HEINOUS ABUSE these animals suffer, I don't think that ANYONE would be able to live with their conscience knowing that they were helping to aid & abett this Torturous Cruelty!
It's pretty interesting that your guest points to more evidence about how there is really no True scientific evidence that confirms that Tretinoin is actually the "Gold Standard". "Someone" made that up apparently, & everyone has bought it, hook, line, & sinker! I would however, like to know more about the efficacy a Phyto Retinol, like backuchiol.
I just don't understand how plain water is supposed to fully take off makeup & sunscreen!? That, I don't buy...but if it works for her, then great.
@@thehonestchannel Yes, please! That was my nr 1 question too. I understand a lot of people do use micellar water to remove their sunscreen but is regular water after that enough? I also use jojoba oil at night over my moisturizer which really helped my dehydrated skin, I am not sure if simply water will get rid of the leftover oil on the skin in the morning. It would be very helpful what her answer is on this topic!
@@CherylBerryl I hear you Cheryl. I mentioned at the end of the video the vegan mineral sunscreen I'm currently using by Versed. I think it's excellent.
@@keinohrtini I've pinned Dr Frey's reply at the top of the comments section : )
Does Dr Frey have a CZcams account ? or somewhere to follow her ? Thank you !!
Great interview! Who here thinks the MD is talking about Elta MD (when she references a popular sunscreen company who didn’t make the cut)?
Glad you enjoyed the interview!
Wendy: Elta MD is actually a favorite among board certified dermatologists because it works extremely well.
@@violetviolet888 I'm a huge fan of EltaMD - I rotate between Elements, Restore, and Physical.
I have heard that Bakuchiol and also rose hip seed oil have similar benefits as retinoids without any irritation. Does anyone know if this is true?
If sunscreen is applied to the hands, does it need to be reapplied every time you wash your hands? What are some good sunscreens? Can anyone recommend?
Elta MD mineral clear is my favorite
I didn't see curel on her website that she mentioned in this video. Do you know why or which curel product she was talking about?
Always intrigued by controversial ideas…but I’m not sure I can get behind not washing off sunscreen. Curious about her thoughts on oil/balm cleansers. Also extremely disappointed in her website, only a few drug store brands represented…it looks like a Neutrogena sponsorship 😕. BUT, I am such a fan of this channel, you are doing amazing work, even if I don’t agree with what I hear I am grateful for hearing it!!! I appreciate you so much!!!!!!
I appreciate that, thank you. Life would be boring if we all said and did the same thing. ❤️
I agree about the Drs website. Not much info and not many products. I think it all comes down to using what works for you and your skin. Its definitely not a one size fit all thing.
Some people only hear what they want to hear. A product does NOT need to be expensive to provide the necessary benefits. But if spending lots of money on a product that doesn’t provide any more benefit makes you feel better then go for it.
I wash with a facial cleanser only at night to wash the day off. Mornings I use a toner before any products.
I am willing to use tretinoin. I wanna see it. I let u know if it works
I read her book as I find her very interesting. Its funny though Im almost scared to follow such a simple routine. Like if I dont use all the products I wont look good. It is interesting that marketing uses fear. Im following for it though!
I'm the same. I don't think I would cut back to just rinsing my face (though I may just rinse in the morning now) and using sunscreen. But there's a good message here for just keeping things simple.
Courtney, although I don't know you, I'm bet you are kind, accomplished and giving.....wear sunscreen and stay fabulous...and I have no doubt you will look just fine with a simple skincare regimen if that's what you choose.
Just using water to clean your face will give you horrendous blackheads on your nose in particular, if your skin is oily.
