You should do a video on Korean skincare next! Your opinions on it, whether it's underrated/overrated, comparisons to Western skincare, perhaps product recommendations, etc. Koreans just seem to care so much more about their appearance, for better or worse.
Yes 100% upvote this! Is it more worth it then western skincare? please do a review on this would love to see it!
My only problem with Korean skincare is that there are so many small brands coming out here and there, and they use so many new ingredients that don't have extensive research to bck them up, but I love the innovation
@@valentinaci7888 Right! I'm certainly not going to say that it's a blemish free system, but the floor for Korean skincare products is significantly higher than it is for American products. I think it would be interesting for Dr. Idriss to explore that difference, as well as the plastic surgery boom/pandemic (depending on who you ask)
is it possible to generalize all korean skincare or all western skincare? these terms are veeery broad so ofc some will be bad and some good
I love this video idea!
This is why I donât follow skincare influencers who arenât dermatologists. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and clinical experience.
Or uneducated ones that basically recommend or bash anything they are told to
Exactly! Thereâs a certain woman who portrays herself as a guru. Absolutely zero training.
Is it niacinamide good for very dry skin?
@@janeseemann2527 susan yara?
Why not. Anyone can read a study and tell you the conclusion especially from a science background
I hate it when influencers will bash a product because the active ingredients are towards the bottom of the ingredient list without taking into consideration that some ingredients can be dangerous at higher concentrations.
They don't understand formulation, uneducated in chemistry yet they are speaking with authority. Don't bother watching them, a complete waste of time.
Hyram we're talking about you lol
Itâs always a red flag when an influencer talks about the formulations instead of talking about their experiences with the products. These influencers donât know how product formulations work, so they only think that if the active ingredients are low, the product is bad.
Mm
Mm
As a French native speaker, I appreciate those quick bursts of French expressions! Merci pour cette super video Dr. Shereene.
Moi aussi đ elle est gĂ©niale
C mon plus grand plaisir đâ€ïž
Moi aussi! :)
pareil, j'adore !
Pareil!! â€ïž
saying niacinamide got a new PR agent is SO true! I don't know what happened, but I'm happy cause it's a great ingredient
Iâm pretty sure that the new agent is Hyram Yarbro đ
@@arya0553 that's a good observation! I don't watch him (because of many reasons)
I think it was The Ordinary
@@LackToast_Intolerant how come?
@@ellemurano6276 thanks!
Fun fact: I came across your videos while watching random English videos to increase my English. Iâve been doing this for about one year now. And now my English has become much better. But as a positive side-effect my skin has become much better, too! Iâm a 63 year old German living in Austria with Rosacea and I really, really appreciate the work you do! Thank you very much for teaching me both, English and proper skincare â€
Your written English is perfect!
1) How didn't I have this woman in my life before?!! She explains things so well and is so fun!!
2) I feel niacinamide had a bigger buzz 3 years ago but still had a lot of buzz...
Personal notes:
1. Vitamin B3 (niacinamide) reduces inflammation (especially if you have acne).
2. Reduces oil production.
3. Use products that contain less than 5%. Too much is damaging.
4. Niacinamide supplements are shown to decrease the risks of developing certain types of skin cancer.
5. Products recommended: Super Pure by Glossier (it also has zinc). Alpha H (weird scents). Skin Ceuticals Metacell Renewing B3 (can be used as a light moisturizer, especially if you leave in a tropical place). Elta MD PM therapy, a moisturizer (but she feels like it sits on her skin only and it has a chalky feeling).
Do a review on the ordinary what products you like and donât like đđ»
Yes!
Yes please as Dr V made me confuse with layering the ordinary đ
yeeees
Please pleasssseeee do this, some of us are not rich enough or have better things to spend their ÂŁs on, but still want their face to look good đ
I feel like the most enthusiastic student when i watch you. I have a notebook FULL of notes from your videos and also I feel confident when shopping for skincare more than ever. And you are just a fun personality I could watch you all day. In fact, i did! âș
hey you, has she ever talked about glycerin? If yes, what did she say about it in general and has she talked about the importance of the amount/proportion in the product? thanks a lot xx
@@jjchris7211 I believe she has in her videos but on her shop my shelf page Dr. Idriss has a whole list of glycerin based products entitled "My Glycerin Love Affair" đ so yes she is a fan!
same here, I adooooreee her :D
Legumes in French are vegetables. Legumes in English are things like beans and lentils and peanuts (pretty much anything that grows in a pod). Just wanted to correct that.
EPIC HAIR GOALS âšđđŒââïž
Thank you â€ïžâ€ïžâ€ïž
Oh you know this means alot because of what she shared earlier in one of the videos about her hair loss this past year and I completely agree!
@William Kendall its a scam
@@leonamay8776 Both of those users are bots, not people.
@@Ignozi yeah. Same as those that advertise the new streaming services etc. But I still like to believe that some POS actually tried to hack their gf's insta with this.... And got scammed.
Please talk about Rosacea đđ
Especially most of the patients complaining from finding a perfect sunblock or treating the hyperpigmentation when occured since their skin so sensitive and irritated
And we love u â€ïž
Face eczema too, please.
Will do soon!!
@@shereeneidriss thanks a lot â€ïžâ„ïžđ
Really needed this. Suffer from rosacea too and actually just pulled out my Ordinary 10% last night that I put back in my drawer like 6 months ago... Great video at exactly the right time!!!
@@ashleycrain7653 TO niacinamide-serum makes my rosacea go bananas. Mixing it 50/50 with Buffet makes it tolerable on my skin. Can be a thing to try if you need to put it back in the drawer.
Youâre my favourite skincare CZcamsr! Thereâs something so authentic about your videos, I feel much better after watching them.
I've been trying to find youtubers that spread real hard science (esp in health, fitness, nutrition, skincare), and I'm so glad I stumbled upon your channel. Thank you for the education, you gained a subscriber!!!
I literally LOVE your personality, Iâm only 22 and I seriously feel like you could be my best friend đđ
my fav dermatologist on the tube

Haha I know right
I said that too đ
If youve been here since day 1, youll notice that she tries not to curse anymore haha love her to bits đ
Lmao trying trying
@@shereeneidriss just be you!
@@shereeneidriss personally I'm a fan of cursing, it speaks to me as a person, so don't feel too much pressure. But also best of luck with kicking the habit if that's what you really want đ
I love when she cursesđ€

Can not get enough of your videos, and your intuitive understanding of products, skin and product ingredients.
Thank you for explaining skincare in a way I can understand. I love that you are a skin geek, but I understand what you are explaining. Thank you for dumming it down without talking down.
The warmth of her last sentence,pure heart of an angle-dermtologistđ
â€ïžâ€ïž
I appreciate this series from Dr. Shereene Idriss SO MUCH.
Love your content, love your energy, & your personality. And love that you can break things down without sounding condescending. Bonus points for being hilarious!
Also love all the product recommendations from you! đ
As skin care enthusiast (with no derma background) I love this Videos ... Very mind blowing and straight forward ...
I recently discovered I hav an allergy to niacinimide since itâs literally in everything from my gentle cleanser to my sunscreen to my makeup. Iâve had to take it out completely. I wish companies wouldnât go so crazy over these hype ingredients, because like you said too much of a good thing is no longer good. Thanks for the education!
I love binging on your videos. Finally someone being honest and talking science based! â€ïž
Hi Dr Shereene Idriss! I just wanted to say you're an excellent teacher and role-model. I'm in my final year of medical school and in the process of thinking about my future career. You definitely have sparked an interest in myself to look into dermatology! It's so much more interesting when being taught by a person such as yourself. I also watched your video about the difficulties in your career and overcoming them and it was very inspiring.
As I watch more and more of your videos, the more I feel like this is necessary information for when I was growing up with HORRIBLE acne...I got acne advice from my dad...which, nothing against him, has rhino skin that can pretty much take anything. Idk how long I used those astringent pads with horrible stinging that didnât help that he used as a kid...went through the proactive phase with no joy. Iâm almost 30, and I feel with your help and guidance, Iâve made more informed decisions about my skin that I wish I knew sooo much sooner...thank you so much for these! Minimizing my routine, and âmore is not moreâ have helped a ton just on their own. Ugh, couldâve saved myself years of self consciousness lol
i love how you break down the science behind the ingredients from the molecular to cosmetic level. i truly appreciate these videos, I get so excited looking at them every saturday morning! I would love to hear your input on malassezia folliculitis, and what treatments you believe there are for it over the counter vs. the treatments you'd get by visiting a derm?
I discovered that niacinamide breaks me out. My skin is doing much better since I removed any product that contain niacinamide from my routine (cleansers, moisturizers etc.). And Iâm pretty convinced after the intense acne breakouts I experienced for the last 6months, only thing that worked for me was keeping niacinamide away from my bathroom vanity. Everyone says itâs good for acne, I wonder why it hated my skin and attacked me đ€·đ»ââïž
Same!!! What product did you use? I had this problem with the ordinary niacinamide.
@@Liteweaver301 I experienced irritation and broke out in little whiteheads all over my face from TO's niacinamide serum! I've heard similar experiences from others... I suspect it's the concentration, though maybe something else in the formulation. I've used products with lower percentages of niacinamide (like some Cerave cleansers and moisturizers, as well as some CosRX products) with zero adverse side effects.
@@feldthausen same i used SVR sun screen , has 4% niacinamide , i breakout like hell and the mask made it worse i think
It irritates my skin badly. I am tretinoin user and niacinamide, even in small amounts, burning my face badly. I tried different products with the same result.
@@Liteweaver301 Honestly anything with niacinamide. Cerave Foaming cleanser broke me out, TO Niacinamide 10%, Good molecules discoloration serum, Facetheory Exaglow serum, Drmtlgy tinted sunscreen... Anything with niacinamide. Now my routine is Vanicream cleanser, Vanicream Hyaluronic acid moisturizer (night), FAB ultra repair (morning), retinoid and Neutrogena Liquid sensitive skin face sunscreen and finally I'm acne free.
"less is more" the lesson that those ones with sensitive skin know pretty well. I like the niacinamide idea, but i personally don't buy a specific niacinamide one, i buy within moisturizer, la roche posey has many moisturizer with that. Excellent video doctor đ€đ€đ€
â€ïž thank you and smart to just incorporate it
Second La Roche Posay!! Only niacinamide product I've tried that's been amazing for my skin.
Honestly so interesting to learn all this. Slowly becoming a skincare enthusiast and your page really contributed to that. Thank you.
I love your how educational and transparent your videos are, your humour, the metaphors and astrological similesđ„°
The Inkey List Niacinamide was very very bad for me! I got more acne, and it didn't stop until I quit the Niacinamide. I was baffled because everyone was raving about it. Now I understand, you explained it so well. Thank you!
I'm so happy niacinamide is having it's moment, bc otherwise I might have never heard of it and it's AMAZING on my very sensitive skin. Also apparently we're both libras, that's a plus
Youâre so witty, which makes all the information you impart on us way way more interesting. Thank you!
I love your use of the spilled product! When I get free samples of things I know my face will hate (rosacea), I use them on my body. My hands get to experience a lot of great rejects.
This is very helpful and I had certainly fallen into the trap of reading niaciname is good for calming the skin, sensitive skin and rebuilding skin barrier, then buying the 10% serum and definitely being irritating and drying. Wish there were more options at low % and the high % ones banned!
Thank you! Paulaâs choice made my skin flare up! And Iâm tan!
Love your vids Dr. Shereene. You always have a unique take on everything đ.
I honestly expected this particular video to not have so many views since its seems like every one knows all about Niacinamide at this point but you still got SO MANY views!
So happy you're getting the recognition you deserve đđ
Just bought the Glossier one from this, thank you! I had to stop using my La Roche Posay Vit C serum because it was just too much for my sensitive skin. Hoping this one does better! Also, would love a sensitive, but powerful video if possible!đđŒđđŒ
I used LaRosh Posay Niacinamide 10% - it didnât suit meâŠso I guess less is better in this case. Glad youâre doing these videos otherwise bloggers would ruin our skin if we only followed their advice !
Because of your videos, I became aware and more knowledgable on what products should I use to my skin. Thank you so much. I truly appreciate it. đđ
I adore you! adoooooore and Ive just discovered your channel! I mean, the broadmind, openness and genuine curiosity powered by HIGH intellect to actually classify chemicals into Zodiac signs is something so priceless and you're so on point - these all are typical Venusian Libra qualities! Oh! your hubby's a lucky man! que les cieux vous benissent!
Best dermatologist on CZcams â€ïž ( I have been watching many dermatologists for years, you are defiantly my favourite) Thankyou for all your knowledge and personalityđ
Thanks for this! Can't wait to hear about your all-in-one recommendations. Totally agree on HA being in everything and it being too much, needs to stop.
Over it!
Niacinamide has been in my skincare for 2 decades now and it really did just BLOW up.
so you didnot get any benefits?
Thank you for this Dr. Idriss! I bought a 10% formula because of the hype around it and it irritated my skin so so bad! I'm happy I finally found answers :)
Dr. Shereene is so beautiful and her personality is just đ„! Much love from the Philippines, doc! đ
The next "buzz" ingredient seems to be Azelaic acid, which has also been around for a while I think?
Iâve been hearing it come up more too
Yes! Totally agree.
I use for a month and barely do anything with my hyperpigmentation. Was my old dermatologist who told me to use it.
@@shereeneidriss Azelaic acid is the best ingredient I have ever discovered for acne (which I've struggled with for 20 years)! I actually starting using it for rosacea and was blown away by how much it cleared my hormonal acne - without drying my skin in the least! I started with Paula's Choice 10% azelaic acid and then got a prescription for 15% Finacea. Now I'm using PC in the morning and Finacea in the evening. I would LOVE to watch a Let's Get Intimate on this ingredient (whether more is better etc.) Thanks for your wonderful videos!
Worked for my skin with acne but only for about a month. Later - same effect with or without
This taught me so much!! I actually use The Ordinary niacinamide and I have seen positive results on my skin. My skin texture is very smooth and I have definitely noticed I wake up with little to no oil anymore! Thank you for this amazing knowledge Dr. Idriss! Always a pleasure!
Me too! Iâll keep using them as they work for me.
I currently use the Glossier one and throughout the whole video I was so nervous you were gonna say itâs bad đ€Ł Glad it gets your stamp of approval!
Loving your vids. Nice to get tidbits of new information. We skincare obsessed laypeople can only watch so many derms and cosmetic chemists before the info is repetitive & we crave deeper knowledge
Gahhhh I seriously love and trust your perspective regarding ingredients. You explain everything well. So logical and balanced. If you come out with your own skincare line, I'm so excited to buy your non-hyaluronic acid containing products!
Looooool YOU KNOW IT!!!!!
â@@shereeneidrissPlease make a product line without HA, niacinamide, and caprylyl glycol!!!
I would love these types of videos about galactomyces and copper peptides! You're great. Love your channel âĄ

I grew up with really bad breakouts that persisted through my 20s. Iâm now 33, have never graduated from my daily neutrogena acne scrub, have recently done a deep dive into skincare, and am realizing that Iâm wrecking my skin! I still have areas that get very oily, but also have flaking and tightness in places. I rarely have breakouts anymore, but have some redness, uneven tone and discoloration (brownish yellow areas), and dullness. The pores in and around my nose also still get pretty clogged. Iâve recently ordered some Korean products - toner and moisturizer from YesStyle - and I want to use a niacinamide product. Iâm still shopping for a cleanser. Thank you for this video and you channel. Loving the content!
As someone who was just prescribed to use this without any knowledge... Thanks you from the bottom of my heartâ„ïžđits really hard to find Such basic info online.... Not everyones a skin nerd.. Again thank you
MORE IS NOT MORE... thank you. My past self needed to hear this. Sitting here with major dermititis and then I realized that 4 out if the 5 products I use on a daily basis have niacinamide as the second or third ingredient. I read all my ingredients and did not think niacinamide would cause such a reaction!
Yes! Same! I was thinking I must have a gluten allergy, eczema or even psoriasis on my face. Turns out it was niacinamide.
I love it here â€ïž
You're awesome. I am officially a huge fan. I won't lie, the first video I ever watched was the one about Gwen Paltrow and although I agreed and understood why you were frustrated, I thought the face expressions/comments were harsh. Every single other video I LOVE so much. Thank you for being honest, direct, funny and informative!!!! :)
THANKYOU!!! I thought I was the only person who felt this way. I was almost expecting a Glyserin revival. PRs used to hero Nicin breakfast cereal in the 80s and 90s.
Please talk about pores and blackheads on the nose. Your videos are so informative! Thanks
I really love how expressive you are đ
You hit over 100k !! Congrats Dr, you deserve that and more !
I love the idea of talking about ingredients mixed together! would love to learn about that
I've tried niacinamide (I have oily skin so of course I've heard of it) it makes my face tingle like I've put a glycolic acid on it and eventually break out. Very validating to know this is something that can happen at higher percentages.
This is the reason why you should visit a derm or listen to one instead of taking beauty advise from celebrities and other beauty youtubers. I thought I was using niacinamide for the first time after getting a niacinamide serum. I realised today that I have been using nicotinamide waaaaaaaay before this whole niacinamide game took to light. P.S nicotinamide is alot cheaper than niacinamide serums.. like literally 10 times less! It's prescription strength though
Could you please give nicotinamide recommendations?
Your "combine and deliver" đ€đȘđ»was so good it's gonna be my new mantra đ
Switched all my luxury skincare products to Skinceuticals line including the B3 renewal cream, thanks for reassuring! You are the best!
I would love hearing something more about alpha arbutan and azelaic acid, your videos are just the so simple to understand and you explain everything so well xx
I second this on alpha arbutin
Thank you for all of this!! As an aspiring PA who is interested in dermatology, this info has been extremely helpful. Would you also be doing a talk with Vitamin-C serums in lieu of summer coming?~
I love the purito Niacinamide and galactomyces serum. The % of Niacinamide is 5% which my skin LOVES and the galactomyces is 92% and does pretty much all the same things niacinamide does. So you get a double whammy but without just increasing the niacinamide to the point where it's irritating or even inefficient.
I love love love this video! Thank you for taking the time to educate us!
The Ordinary Niacinimide has done wonders to my skin though. It has improved so much that many people noticed, complimented and started asking what do I use. All u need to do after applying the right amount is to leave it for few min do it to properly absorb before carrying out wth other steps.. but I do look forward to try other brands that you shared as your preference..
I started using it like a week ago. Can you tell me what skin condition you have and how much time did it take before you started seeing results?
@@xiioh6788 combination skin. Oily Tzone and tend to have spots on nose and chin. Was managing large pores too. for me, the improvement could be seen very quick. Oily skin more stabilised, pores appear smaller in the same week. I started using wth twice a day. Now after so long, only once a day as I do have other skin regimes besides niacinamide
@@GrooveYT I've yet to see any improvements on my skin :( I'm using niacinamide in the morning and azelaic acid at night, both of which have supposedly done miracles for some people. I re-apply sunscreen religiously too.
I use the Ordinary Niacinamide 10% . I have a lot of brown spots on my skin as well as a bit of melasma. I have used Niacinamide for the past month yet havenât seen much change on my face. I also use the Ordinary Hyaluronic acid along with Niacinamide and sometimes Hemi squalene oil on top of it. My rosacea has more or less disappeared but the brown spots are still there..
@@paromita10 Not sure how long should niacinamide take to work but recommending you to look into retinols!
The ordinary niacinamide destroyed my skin. I found out that in way lower concentrations niacinamide is best for me, I use COSRX Galactomyces 95 tone balancing essence, which has niacinamide 2% and is probably my favourite skincare product. I donât know if thatâs a too low concentration to actually make improvements but I do feel my skin better when I use it.
Side note, as a Libra I loved that reference đ
Is it piling on your skin when you used the ordinary?
@@Earthseed441 even though I used really thin layers sometimes it form like balls and peel with the ordinary niacinamide, yes
Im the opposite! My skin loves The Ordinary niacinamide and i break out using products that contain fermented stuff like galactomyces :(
â@@itsisabeltrades what type of skin you have
Probably why i have an acne right now as i use galactomyces filterate and have recently started using purito fermented 94 essence with 2 % niacinamide in it ! Its probably excessive niacinamide
I followed you advice on baby bum cream to soothe and my skin has transformed from a sensitive sore organ, to strong and less demanding of moisture. I followed your advice on retinol and at 39 I have less wrinkles than 30. And learning how to accept with grace my incoming jowels. Also sunscreen, thank you for motivating me to be consistent, my skin is so much clearer all the way. Now working on the hyperpigmentation around my eyes, I am a rubber⊠so working on stopping that as you advised, now watching this to see if this would help with that too. †thank you â€
I love the visuals you use to educate us. Like using pizza to show the basic skin layers and this cement holding the bricks together. It helps me remember the facts so much better.
When the term legumes is used in English, I believe it means pulses. LĂ©gumineuses...
Thank you for sharing your knowledge in such an accessible way.
When you come back to sunscreens could you talk about melanin and what darker skinned people do and don't need?
I looove Dr. Idriss, I value her opinion and for educating us about skin care. But if you want to know more about taking care of skin of color, you need to see two of my favorite as well, they expert when it comes to skin of color. Dr. Alexis Stephens. She's dermatologist/ cosmetic chemist and Dr. Vanita Rattan, she's a doctor and cosmetic formulator specifically for skin of color.
I make cosmetics and this is the best information on this ingredient. Thank you for making the statement more is not more and not everyone is a chemist. This is so important. Love the example of the Nutella.
She is so serious in her researches and such a funny one in the presentation ! Lovely
I gave The Ordinary serum few tries, but I have similar feelings to Shereene. Feels a bit too heavy for my combination, acne prone skin... Now I prefer to look for Niacinamide in my moisturizers (where this ingredient is usually just a "supporting" ingredient, not always even highlighted). My favorite ones are CosRX "AC Collection Lightweight Soothing Moisturizer" or iUNIK "Centella Calming Gel Cream".
Could you do a new skincare order for those who want to add niacinamide, azeliac acid, aha/bha peels, & retinols. Love all of your videos on youtube and instagram!
Thinking about the same. I think I will do serums under cream and retinol at the end.
Doc Shereene, thanks for your tips on skin care. By the way, youâre pretty, intelligent and i really love your flawless skin.
Where have you been all my life?!đ Top content and I like your hilarious personality. You bring NEW/NOT MUCH TALKED ABOUT and VALID info for sure. Skincare education at its best! Merciđđ»
I'm SO happy that you discussed the Ordinary's product. I had an awful reaction to it that even my doctor was amazed by. Thank you for shedding light on the "more is more" problem! I learned a lot.
Thatâs bit strange, I have been using this product over 2 years with some amazing results, perhaps everyone is different!
I had the worst reaction from the Ordinary-Niacinamide that I spend months to heal my acne made from it
Did you guys do a patch test?
Hi dr. Shereene, as a Libra, I just want to say I absolutely love your videos!! It has really transformed my skin for the better, so thank you so much, and your sense of humour definitely makes it so much more enjoyable to watch. Please keep them coming, I still feel like there is so much more for me to learn from you
This makes me so so happy!!
Thank you for this, Iâve been using the inky list 10% but Iâm going to change for the glossier after watching. Great informative vid đ
Dr Shereen! I loveeee your videos so much, you make skin care so entertaining :') I suffer from seborrheic dermatitis flare ups, a video on it would be amazing since it is so common!
The "more is not more," makes total sense. I recently purchased a CeraVe lotion for the first time. I didn't realize it was lotion because I bought it online. I have super dry skin so I need creams and ointments. The lotion wasn't enough so I just kept reapplying it every time I went into the bathroom. After 24 hour my skin felt like fine sand paper. I stopped using it, but a week later I tried it again, just 2x a day. Now my skin is so soft and smooth. I cover it with Alboline to hold in the moisture, but it has improved my skin so much!
Yet they, label the lotion for normal to dry skin in the US, and worse dry to very dry skin in the UK. I have combination oily skin and even I can layer it up and stay matte đ
MORE IS NOT MOREE - i chant to myself while watching this
Omg thank you so much doc. I am also a physician and was able to realize it has something to do with higher concentration that my face used to get red and itchy but now I am đŻ sure after seeing your video :):)
Love the emphasis on use what is right.i have been guilty of more is more and I have learned what my skin likes and not. I now concentrate my skincare in 3/ 4 brands that I trust and skincity skin test. They have been giving me very good recommendations. As for niacinamide my best product is la Roche Posay toleriane night.
Cerave's PM moisturizing lotion has niacinamide (4%) !
i LOVE that moisturizer! so lightweight but very moisturizing and so soothing because of that niacinamide đ
i was going to say the same and I was hoping she would mention it, I'm in my second one (the first lasted me like 3 months using it everyday!) and I noticed less pimples and acne in general and is not that expensive.
I wish she would've mentioned it too because it's more affordable
It has Sodium Hyraulonate and combining it with other Cerave products also with Sodium Hyraulonate, freaking broke me out and dried me out
@@gertj363 saaaaaaame! The cleanser and the pm moisturizer together destroyed my skin đ©
The blotting paper scene is still my fave
I love the way you anthropromophize the ingredients!
I just love your channel. You inspire me to take much better care of myself.
I don't think I can put one more thing on my face lol. I'm glad you spoke to this! Luckily there are a lot of products out there that double up and have niacinamide included, ie: Cerave products and the sunscreen I'm currently using.
careful with the cerave products, seriously. i have never had cystic acne in my entire life, but i definitely got 4 large cystic spots after using the PM moisturizer.
Since I started using skincare, I never think that higher is better. But The Ordinary's Niacinamide 10% & Zinc 1% works just fine đđœ
I use almost everything I need from TO (except my OTC 0.1% tretinoin), and some from 1 Korean brand. So far, couldn't be happier.
I totally agree!
Iâve been using it for a month and my skin is not oily as it used. to be.
Since I discovered this channel my passion for skin care has increased a lot, and it not only helps me to learn about it but also to improve my English, I can already watch this without subtitles and understand, and I couldn't be more grateful
