This is exactly what I was just looking for information on. Funny how every time I start doing more research about any skincare related issues I am having, CZcams ALWAYS brings me back to you! And I am SO thankful for your videos. You are very well versed and informative about all of the topics you speak about and I find it incredibly helpful! Bless You! 🙏🏻🤗
I've always loved Zinc Pyrithione! It is such a helpful ingredient! I love the fact you are bringing these underrated ingredients into the spotlight :)!
Hi Dr. Dray! I recently discovered you and i cant stop watching. Ive already changed my whole skincare routine, stopped wearing makeup, other then mascara and i've even been putting on sunscreen every morning! (yay Cerave Am! Love that stuff) I just want to say thank you for all that you do, you are an amazing person! Have a great day!
I love how you try to empower us with your knowledge and insight and therefore we ,can make better choices in regards to our skincare. Happy Wednesday Dr. Dray. 💕💕💕
It would be helpful if you provided time stamps as well about which topics discussed at what minute. Coz sometimes the videos are too long.. btw thank you your videos are amazing!!
I had itchy, scaley, red skin in my nose folds that peeled off when scratched for. years. Until i started a consistent skincare routine, then it was gone. i always assumed it was something fungal because it came and went and was localized in the skin folds only. now the skin in my nose folds looks a bit scarred, theres a slight texture difference, but it's not red or itchy anymore
Zinc soap cleared up my back and chest from little red spots I had for years that never went away with acne ingredients. Only thing is now it dries my skin out like crazy if I don't moisturize fast enough. Also my arms started getting weird rashes lately I'm not sure if the soap is getting on them and causing it or what. But for yeast this ingredient saved my life lol.
This is so great! It was so helpful for me to watch your video on seborrhea while I was waiting to see my derm. Even now that I’m on ketoconazole and tacrolimus, I still use the z bar daily. 💗
I have used vanicream Z bar since August 2018! I lather it all over my neck, chest, back and sometimes my face in the shower! It has been life changing for my acne prone skin, especially during sweaty summer months! Thanks so much for your informative videos! You have been SO amazing in helping me navigate a healthy, effective and affordable skincare routine!
Thanks for doing this series on old school, proven ingredients. These videos are very helpful. Would you say the Free and Clear anti-dandruff shampoo could make a good facial cleanser for those without any particular skin issues (just for overall skin health)? Also, with what types of hair loss has zinc pyrithione (as an adjuvant) been associated with positive outcomes?
Hi dr Dray! Thanks a lot. Very useful as usual. Thank you for the explanation about anti dandruff shampoos, I didn't know. As you say, brands should put better instructions on their products. Otherwise customers might use them wrongly and then think that they do not work. Have a great Wednesday!
A video I've been looking forward to! Of course, after hearing this, I think I have every disease you mentioned! All I know is I'm wicked itchy up there and I can't tell if it's because highly fragrant shampoos are incredibly irritating or I have something more serious. I don't think it's dandruff. If it is or it's not, my options are limited. I have yet to find a fragrance-free, color-safe shampoo that doesn't dry out my scalp. Free and Clear, even with the conditioner, turned my scalp into the desert and it's not recommended for color-treated hair. Head Shoulders color-safe and regular contain lots of irritants - cinnamal, limonene, linalool, menthol, lemon, eucalyptus. As it slips down my body, it irritates it. If you know of a moisturizing, fragrance-free shampoo that works for those of us that are itchy, sensitive and need to keep gray away, I'm all ears. If not, there's a gap in the market and you should invent a product. I'll take 10 bottles!
Thank you for this video! I really enjoyed watching and learning from you. I might look locally for products containing this ingredient to see if we have any as I'm quite enjoying using the sulfur for my mild rosacea annnnd the Hado Labo HA in the golden bottle that contains urea sure has made a huge difference. Thanks Dr Dray, love you lots and lots :)
Dr. Gray, Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience with us. I really enjoy learning from you. I have two daughters one 8 and another 10. What is an appropriate age for them to start using moisturizers for their face?
Life changing vídeo. I've had excessive shed hair for years..until I watched this vídeo and bought a zinc shampoo. My hair hardly seeds and no flakes anymore.
I have seborrheic dermatitis and have been using anti-dandruff shampoo & soap containing zinc pyrithione for quite some time now. It has definitely helped. I would love to for you to do another video about this condition. I have read a lot of conflicting information about what to use and what not to use on your skin when you have seb. derm. This confusion can be very frustrating and of course stress only worsens the condition! lol Thanks again Dr. Dray for all the fascinating and helpful information you continue to gift us! 😊
Thanks for letting us know how to use a dandruff shampoo. I literally used to leave mine on my head for under a minute. Update on some products I got. I tried a Tuscany candle. I got a tropical fruity one and it didn’t burn cleanly, smelled almost smoky and irritated my airway passages. Fruity ones I have from Yankee burn so cleanly and you can only smell the fruits themselves. Too bad because the price was amazing at Kroger. Also, I got the Colorscience Sun forgettable Body Shield hoping I could use it also on the face. Conclusion: it is NOT for the face. It has a strong flowery/powder smell that could be nice on the body but not near the nose. It is pretty white for the face, and too matte for my taste (although some might enjoy the matter-ish finish). The good: it spreads very thinly, not heavy at all. It is “almost” a whipped powdery creamy consistency. I know, my fault, since for the body it is very good with all these features. If I keep it, it will last me forever using on the tops of my hands.
This was SOOOOO HELPFUL!!! Thank you so much for making this video. I usually feel like I’m the only one going through this with no remedy. It’s great to know I was on the right track using H&S.
I’d love to see a video on alcohol in skin care, fatty alcohols and drying alcohols and of the drying alcohols are actually bad in leave on products etc.
Hi! As always, this type of video is very informative. From now on, if I see this ingredient in a product I will no longer have the fear of making a bad choice. This ingredient will not cure the problem but will help control it. I had no idea before of the effectiveness of sulphide, urea or many other products. I think it is important to know why one product should be used more than another. It is easier to make an informed choice. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Thanks for the info. I would like you to make a video talking about the differences between hyaluronic acid and glycerin, which one is better, how to use..
You mentioned this ingredient in a video about a year ago. Thank you so much. I’ve been using Vanicream Z-bar for months now, and it’s made a dramatic difference in my SD on my face. It was a god send. So much better than an prescription cream I’ve ever used!!!!! Thank you for all you do to help us. ❤️❤️❤️
I've started using the Jasön zinc pyrithione shampoo in addition to the one they have with salicylic acid. Smells like chewing gum and seems to work! (I don't have dandruff, but very easily irritated scalp! Frequent washing ftw! Contrary to popular belief, that helps a lot. Edit: This shampoo is crueltyfree, vegan and sulphate free. (It's called Dandruff relief treatment 2-1 shampoo + conditioner. ) It is also probably available most countries, since I found it in Norway :).
Love your videos Dr dray ♥️ please talk about feminine hygiene. I have seborrheic dermatitis on face and scalp can i have it on labia minora too .can i use zinc pyrithione down there too?
I love your videos. Thank you for helping so many of us. I just have to comment since this is my first time lol, but your skin is... wow. Absolutely gorgeous. I mean, I would kind of expect it with your profession but still lol💖
Great information, I had seen probably 20 doctors and only 1 mentioned folliculitis on my leg. I had to find out myself I had malassezia folliculitis/fungal acne, all over me at one point, but can't use most products since I'm sensitive to fragrances. Vinegar for 15-30 sec at the start of my shower helped the surface but didn't help the hair follicles/pores. Sulfur soaps helped but had a side affect of causing 1-2 different kind of pimple, not sure how. But I stumbled upon Free & Clear that has a fragrance free anti-dandruff shampoo containing zinc pyrithione. Super happy with zinc, it's definitely the most effective yet gentle active ingredient for fungal acne (malassezia).
Thank you so much for this video! I have tried using the free and clear zinc pyrithione 2% after watching this video for several weeks now. However, each time I used it around my face, I experience redness and irritation, particularly around the nasolabial folds where I experience my seborrheic dermatitis. Not sure what to do about this.
Hello Dr. Looking really pretty as always. What are your thoughts on Zinc Theraphy Soap (basically is "castile soap" with zinc pyrithione)? It contains Olive oil so I'm afraid to use it on my face, been using ketoconazole instead.
I have dreadlocks (locs) and have always struggled with itchy flaking since a long time before I locked my hair. Recently I realized it is seborrheic dermatitis and began using the Vanicream zinc pyrythione anti-dandruff shampoo (“scalp mask”). It is the best shampoo I’ve ever used on my locs! And it seems to even be reducing the buildup in the lengths of my locs! My locs are softer and fluffier than ever before! I haven’t noticed any dryness to my hair shafts either. I’ve been using for 6 weeks. I may try this shampoo to my body to see if it reduces the itchiness I sometimes experience. SO glad I found this “scalp mask.” It is a game-changer!
I've been getting some very stubborn acne on my face, chest and back for about a year now, nothing really seems to help. I'll give zinc pyrithione a try, thank you Dr. Dray :)
@@goldsunsilvermoon No unfortunately it didn't, I used zinc soap and it dried out my skin a lot but maybe it's because I was using it too frequently, bar soaps have a tendency to do that. The one I got from Amazon was rather cheap so maybe there are better options available to try. Good luck!
Hi, Dr Dray! Please review sunscreens from Frezyderm 💕 Frezyderm Sun Screen Velvet Face SPF 50+ Frezyderm Sun Screen Color Velvet Face SPF 50+ Frezyderm Sun Screen Velvet Body Lotion SPF 50+
Roxanne E the sunscreen applies so beautifully. It actually feels like velvet. It’s a clear gel but does not cause a greasy feeling. I too would be interested in a Dr. Dray review.
Hope you have a GREAT Valentine's Day!!!!!!! Great topic today. We use to suggest zinc pyr. for tinea versicolor alot. Makes perfect sense for them changing the wording to a scalp mask. If used as a shampoo it is so drying. I found online that Head and Shoulders makes a scalp lotion but I can't find it in any store around me. I may order some. The lotion as a vehicle seems good for those of us with dry hair.
Would love a video on sebhorreic dermatitis on an oily scalp (and ears). What ingredients are out there for it and the differences between them. Which one is more efficient and how to use them too.
Thank you dr Dray for the great video! One question: is olamine piroctone as effective as zinc pirithione? Because I noticed that Head and Shoulder's for example (and other antidandruf shampoo brands) is replacing the zinc pirithione with olamine piroctone (in Europe at least).
I'm from the UK and find that vanicream is a little pricey for me so I looked into a UK made brand called clever soap, there products have the 2% zinc pyrithione in so I'm excited to try it out!
Dr. Drey please please please do a video on blotting papers for oily shiny skin! I am a 26 year old woman who has had horrible cystic acne and Rosacea beginning from age 11. I have been to countless dermatologists, taken antibiotics, been on Accutane twice, and have been religiously using Differin and Benzoyl Peroxide since I was 12 years old. I have been binge watching your videos for the past month and made huge changes! I have switched to simple drug store products and it has really helped my skin. Recently I realized one of the biggest triggers for my rosacea was Avobenzone and so I switched from the Neutrogena dry touch to the Cereve AM SPF. However since I have done this my skin is now incredibly shiny! Like so super shiny I look like my face is perpetually wet or I was caught in an olive oil rain storm. I have stopped using makeup since watching you (a big step for me) so I have no way to cover the shinyness. However this morning after allowing the SPF to sink in for about 15 minutes I used some blotting papers on my face to reduce the shine and it worked wonders! My skin looked great and I could actually go to work with a normal looking face. However, now I am worried that the blotting papers may have removed my SPF or might make me break out…Please help!!
I have found simple TP to work for blotting off the shine. Even cheaper than the cheapest blotting papers. But yes cerave am leaves the same shine/wet look on me too.
Jamie Cowan I am not a dermatologist, so I would wait for Andrea's confirmation, but I have been a makeup artist for many years. The blotting papers such as Clean & Clear made with the polypropylene film should only absorb the excess oil on your skin, and leave your skincare products and/or makeup undisturbed.
Use niacinamide for three months at least, ordinary deciem is great. You will see another life changing difference . Watch her videos, it balances the skin. It did for me. :)
Dr. Dray, would it be acceptable to use Zinc Pyrithione in the shower (in the folds of my skin - where I am susceptible to yeast rashes) prior to applying prescription Ketoconazole Cream 2% onto those same areas after completely dry? I have chronic yeast due to PCOS.
Hello Dr.Dray, Can I use head and shoulders shampoo on my face?, I have facial seborrheic dermatitis and I tried using it before and it gave me a lot of blackheads, after watching your video i'm tempted again to try it.
Thanks to Dr. Dray’s sage advice, I am a much more discerning customer, perusing the drugstore aisle for effective skincare. Happy Valentines Day everyone!😍❤️
I have used the VaniCream Z Bar before for acne on my face, & it worked wonders but recently I have started using the DermaHarmony Pyrithione Zinc Bar to save some money & it's had the same affect. I recently (tmi coming) have been suffering with underarm acne & had to get an infected abscess cut & drained (which was so painful). To aid in the healing I have been washing under my arms in the shower with the Pyrithione Zinc Bar (as well as doing hot compresses) & the issue seems to be getting better. Not sure of the science behind it but I hope it continues working.
Dr. Dray - thank you for this video. I have Seborrheic dermatitis. My scalp has become oily, red and scaly. I started using Selsun Blue with Znc Pyrithione for my scalp to replace selenium sulfide based shampoo. My forehead has become very dry and scaly as well. My doctor prescribed Protopic 0.1 to control the eczema on my face and it worked - it definitely calmed it down. Question for you: could I use the Selsun Blue to wash my forehead (1 %) ?
When I get a "bout" of seborrheic dermatitis and I'm quick enough to act (when I just get a tiny bit of scaling/itch), washing with Nizoral 2% (letting it sit, using it properly) and then immediately after with a simple Head & Shoulders shampoo usually helps me get rid of it all after just one wash. But I have to keep my eye on it closely. If I'm too late to act on it, it's just using the Nizoral 2% consistently instead until it clears. In between bouts, washing on and off with H&S and using a harsh sulfate in between helps me not have to use the Nizoral 2% for quite a few years (of course I am not averse to my medicated shampoo, but it is costly at 14.25 euro per 100ml)! Thank you for this very informational video. I like getting to know my products inside out!
Thank you for your video. Could you please tell me your thoughts about Elta MD PM Therapy? I really really appreciate it. Thank you, thank you for all your informative videos.
What products list the percentages on the ingredients used? Apart from some sunscreens and their main ingredients, what other skin-care products are there that do this? Thanks!
Also, I wasn’t leaving it on my skin long enough! Thank you for clarifying. I’m so thankful for you, dr. Dray! 💗💗💗
This was such a better explanation than my dermatologist provided. Thank you.

glad to hear!
I’ve noticed flaking in my brows over the last couple month, so I’ll have to try my dandruff shampoo there as a mask. Thanks for another great video!!
your skin always looks great obviously but in this video, it looks even more amazing somehow. I can't stop looking at it!

Yes!! I really enjoy videos where you talk in detail about great ingredients! 👍👍
Thanks for watching!
It seems to me that Zinc Py has been around for years but only now has it began to make impact, and the reason is that it works. Great vid
I get Tinea Versicolor on my back every winter and it drives me crazy!! Thanks for the tips!
I find this all so interesting and love learning about it, you would make a great teacher of your subject, you explain it all so well!

When *every* product doesn't seem to work, check your method! Great advice, thank you 🙏
These types of videos are so informative and you seem to really enjoy sharing your knowledge!
thanks for watching!
Love it! Can you do a video on positive dermatographia and how to alleviate it?
Wow! This was a really in-depth video on a subject that affects many.
We are so blessed to have you Dray. ❤️
Loved it! Super informative, the way you are able to explain the science behind these ingredients is phenomenal. :)

Do you use it twice a day?
Brooke Collister try costco
I get it off amazon!
And I don’t use it twice a day, so far just whenever I shower so usually once a day or every other day.
Brooke Collister I ordered mine from Walmart website and it took about 2 weeks to deliver.
Brooke Collister dr cynthia Bailey has the best zinc soap!
Dr. Cynthia Bailey makes the best Zinc Pyrythione soap in my opinion... and no I’m not being sponsored just love her products

Happy Valentines Day Ms Jennifer!
Hi Andrea what do you think of facial exercises to prevent wrinkles? Just wondering x
You look so pretty, Dr D! (Skin regimen goals...)
thanks
thank you so much doc, you really saved me.
Can you review curology... the ad came on before your video and I’m curious
Would love a video on sebhorreic dermatitis on an oily scalp (and ears). What ingredients are out there for it and the differences between them. Which one is more efficient and how to use them too.
I second this!!
Yes please!
Yes
Totally, my ears get so greasy, though head and shoulders seems to be helping.
Loved this video!! Very intetesting!! Thank you for a Wonderful video!! Please enjoy the rest of your Day!!
Thanks for watching!
Dr Dray You are very Welcome!! Always! xox
Thank you dr Dray for the great video! One question: is olamine piroctone as effective as zinc pirithione? Because I noticed that Head and Shoulder's for example (and other antidandruf shampoo brands) is replacing the zinc pirithione with olamine piroctone (in Europe at least).
Why are they doing that is it safer?
I'm from the UK and find that vanicream is a little pricey for me so I looked into a UK made brand called clever soap, there products have the 2% zinc pyrithione in so I'm excited to try it out!
It’s a shame they banned zinc now in the eu
Very informative video . Thanks Dr 💕
Thanks for watching!
Dr. Drey please please please do a video on blotting papers for oily shiny skin! I am a 26 year old woman who has had horrible cystic acne and Rosacea beginning from age 11. I have been to countless dermatologists, taken antibiotics, been on Accutane twice, and have been religiously using Differin and Benzoyl Peroxide since I was 12 years old. I have been binge watching your videos for the past month and made huge changes! I have switched to simple drug store products and it has really helped my skin. Recently I realized one of the biggest triggers for my rosacea was Avobenzone and so I switched from the Neutrogena dry touch to the Cereve AM SPF. However since I have done this my skin is now incredibly shiny! Like so super shiny I look like my face is perpetually wet or I was caught in an olive oil rain storm. I have stopped using makeup since watching you (a big step for me) so I have no way to cover the shinyness. However this morning after allowing the SPF to sink in for about 15 minutes I used some blotting papers on my face to reduce the shine and it worked wonders! My skin looked great and I could actually go to work with a normal looking face. However, now I am worried that the blotting papers may have removed my SPF or might make me break out…Please help!!
I have found simple TP to work for blotting off the shine. Even cheaper than the cheapest blotting papers. But yes cerave am leaves the same shine/wet look on me too.
Jamie Cowan I am not a dermatologist, so I would wait for Andrea's confirmation, but I have been a makeup artist for many years. The blotting papers such as Clean & Clear made with the polypropylene film should only absorb the excess oil on your skin, and leave your skincare products and/or makeup undisturbed.
@@ParadigmBeauty thank you!
@@timvandermey4792 thank you!
Use niacinamide for three months at least, ordinary deciem is great. You will see another life changing difference . Watch her videos, it balances the skin. It did for me. :)
Another video watched ✔ Another product in my Amazon cart ✔ Gotta love Dr. Dray 😎
@annie Lee update?
Hi Dr. Dray! A very helpful and informative. Thanks 😘😀🇨🇦
thanks for watching!
Dr. Dray, would it be acceptable to use Zinc Pyrithione in the shower (in the folds of my skin - where I am susceptible to yeast rashes) prior to applying prescription Ketoconazole Cream 2% onto those same areas after completely dry? I have chronic yeast due to PCOS.
Hello Dr.Dray, Can I use head and shoulders shampoo on my face?, I have facial seborrheic dermatitis and I tried using it before and it gave me a lot of blackheads, after watching your video i'm tempted again to try it.
Thanks to Dr. Dray’s sage advice, I am a much more discerning customer, perusing the drugstore aisle for effective skincare.
Happy Valentines Day everyone!😍❤️
Happy Wednesday!
I have used the VaniCream Z Bar before for acne on my face, & it worked wonders but recently I have started using the DermaHarmony Pyrithione Zinc Bar to save some money & it's had the same affect. I recently (tmi coming) have been suffering with underarm acne & had to get an infected abscess cut & drained (which was so painful). To aid in the healing I have been washing under my arms in the shower with the Pyrithione Zinc Bar (as well as doing hot compresses) & the issue seems to be getting better. Not sure of the science behind it but I hope it continues working.
Thank you for this information! ♥
thanks for watching!
U sold me!! Going out to buy me some zinc pyrithione today!!😂Thanks for the useful and simple tips!!💜💜
Thanks for watching!
Did it work?
Did it work?
Thank you for the detailed info. I'll be added a few minutes to my shower time now.
Dr. Dray - thank you for this video. I have Seborrheic dermatitis. My scalp has become oily, red and scaly. I started using Selsun Blue with Znc Pyrithione for my scalp to replace selenium sulfide based shampoo. My forehead has become very dry and scaly as well. My doctor prescribed Protopic 0.1 to control the eczema on my face and it worked - it definitely calmed it down. Question for you: could I use the Selsun Blue to wash my forehead (1 %) ?
I swear that you read my mind. Every time I think about a new ingredient, you make a video about it.
Thanks for watching!
Same!
Hi what about zinc supplements would you recommend the best one to take
When I get a "bout" of seborrheic dermatitis and I'm quick enough to act (when I just get a tiny bit of scaling/itch), washing with Nizoral 2% (letting it sit, using it properly) and then immediately after with a simple Head & Shoulders shampoo usually helps me get rid of it all after just one wash. But I have to keep my eye on it closely. If I'm too late to act on it, it's just using the Nizoral 2% consistently instead until it clears. In between bouts, washing on and off with H&S and using a harsh sulfate in between helps me not have to use the Nizoral 2% for quite a few years (of course I am not averse to my medicated shampoo, but it is costly at 14.25 euro per 100ml)! Thank you for this very informational video. I like getting to know my products inside out!
nizoral is great!
Thank you for your video. Could you please tell me your thoughts about Elta MD PM Therapy? I really really appreciate it. Thank you, thank you for all your informative videos.
What's your opinion on Ketoconazole vs. ZP for dandruff? I read a study claiming 2% Ketoconazole is far superior to 1% ZP
What products list the percentages on the ingredients used? Apart from some sunscreens and their main ingredients, what other skin-care products are there that do this? Thanks!
Dr dray can you review the masks and skincare products from milk makeup!?
I’m skeptical of them but they seem convenient for travel purposes.
Thx!
Thank you!! only question what % of zinc pyrithione is best for facial use also does it help normal acne by any chance?
I would love if you reviewed this new line called mother dirt.
