So Dr. Dray, I stopped your video to make these comments before they slip my mind. I can discern that you are a very good doctor by not only your personal knowledge of these products but by your broad spectrum of care for your youtubers and paitents. The fact that you mention that the ointment may be difficult for those with mobility issues really struck me. You also mention those living in various climates and those with certain conditions where a different product may be better. I am impressed. Also, as a side note, love the red top! Love the bright colors you've been wearing & your hair! 😊

As a guy, I took a leap of faith with the Cosrx Advanced Snail 92 cream. This was before I really knew anything about skincare and was just beginning. Once I really started getting more into skincare and the ingredients in products is when I started to question some things in my routine, including this. It's a huge relief to hear your insight about this product because I relatively felt the same of whether it was just in my head but it really helped with keeping my skin hydrated and leaving a smooth texture to my skin. I use this both morning & night and you really need only a dime-size amount for your entire face! It's amazing. Also, to combat the stringiness she mentions in the video, I began using a tongue depressor as a way to get the cream out to avoid the stringiness by getting the amount I need on one side then flipping over and scraping the excess off on the edge and usually you don't get the stringiness along with it. Then I just put it in my hand and apply to the face from there! I don't know if this is good or bad to do but it has worked for me. I'm just not a fan of dipping my fingers into a jar repeatedly, whether that makes a difference or not, idk.

[@MyCrownstar]

Thank goodness it now comes in a tube!

[@Aeknu]

@@MyCrownstar Over the course since making this comment I have continued using this moisturizer and it is still my go to. I've only used 1 jar since (3.52oz). If that at all can give a representation to those interested of how little you need to keep your skin nice and moisturized! I'm glad to hear there are more options for people! Personally, I'm going to stick with the jar version of this product as over time I've become accustom to using it this way. It's also made me happy with knowing I can get every last bit of product out of the jar! In comparison to my sunscreen that comes in a tube, I've had to cut it open when I thought I ran out only to notice I had about 3-4 more uses left! If you use the tube version, consider doing this to make sure you get the most out of your product and get your money's worth! :)

I live in Japan and discovered Hada Labo through Dr. Dray and now I just buy lots of Hada labo stuff from the local drugstores. I just love the SPF 50 white gel. It’s my favorite spf for the face and I even got my husband to use it as a day cream. At night we use the hyaluronic perfect gel. I also love the foaming cleanser and use the hyaluronic milky lotion under the gels.

[@beyond50skin]

Thoughts on Dr Dray’s repurchases from someone with mature, dry, sensitive skin: 1.Hadalabo cleansing oil is my 💯 holy grail! 2. I’ve found no improvement to skin quality, texture, healing from the CosRx snail mucin products for my mature dry sensitive skin. 3. Cerave healing ointment is fabulous. The whole family uses & loves. It’s tied with our love of Aquaphor. 4. Vanicream is also a family fave, definitely prefer over Cerave body lotion’s more waxy texture. 5. Not a fan of the LP (too shiny) but love the DRMTLGY untinted spf. 6. NG facial hydroboost stings, but love love Aveeno Clam & Restore. 7. I prefer DRMTLGY body exfoliating lotion (with lactic acid) for feet and hands over Kerasal or Dermatonics. Seriously no need for professional mani/pedi after using it. I definitely need to try pro cure. Has anyone else tried it for mature dry irritated skin? Hope other over 50 beauties found this helpful 💜.

[@Lee-qu4ce]

I'm happy I'm mot the only one who doesn't jive with the snail mucin. In theory I like it but it doesn't feel moisturizing at all. I always put a on of moisturizer on top of it. Also, I think slugging is just a better option for max hydration

I grew up on the east coast and my skin was very oily, hardly needed moisturizer. A couple years ago, I moved to Colorado and the lack of humidity in the air definitely took a toll on my skin, especially when I started using Retin-A at 0.05%. My skin needed all of the moisture and hydration! I started using the Vanicream gentle facial cleanser and the Cetaphil moisturizing cream at night and what a difference it has made with the dryness and peeling from Retin-A use. Would have never thought I would use a thick cream on my face due to my skin type, but with the dry climate and using a retinoid, I can totally relate to Dr. Dray with using more moisturizing products at her time in Colorado!

[@Tny.1]

Did you know that having oily skin and therefore not needing moisturizer is a myth? When your skin becomes dehydrated, it can overcompensate by producing more oil, which can then lead to more breakouts (if acne-prone). So you can still be oily, but dehydrated at the same time. It's better to moisturize than to not. Just have to find one that's not very thick and will not suffocate your already oily skin. I have very oily skin myself and using a gel moisturizer plus a niacinamide serum really helps with keeping the oil production at a minimum.

Those are fantastic items! My list would be: Paula's Choice pore normalizing cleanser Vanicream daily facial moisturizer CeraVe hydrating sheer tint SPF cosRX snail mucin essence For my 4 yr old with eczema: LRP lipikar eczema cream CeraVe healing ointment CeraVe itch relief moisturizing lotion

I love, love, love your videos! Honest, non-biased information and real product names we can purchase. Are you considering Part 2, with another 10 favorite products? Thank you for helping us all.

[@lauras4621]

Because of your channel, my frequently purchased items are Colorscience 3 in 1 eye SPF 45, Elta MD UV Physical BS SPF 41 tinted, Cerave Moisturizing Cream, Kerasol Foot Ointment. Other items that are must haves for me are Banana Boat's Lip Balm sunscreen, Eucerin Daily Protection for face, Neutrogena RWR, Cerave PM facial moisutrizer and Mary Kay Eye Makeup Remover. I've always used Aquaphor at night on lips. Never tried Cerave....yet.

[@ThePinkZebra22]

I am team Cerave & Aquaphor on the healing ointment game. I love the Cerave ointment for under my eyes and slugging but nothing helps my lips like Aquaphor. I will never go back to any regular old chapstick. I would never have tried either of these products if it weren’t for your suggestions. Thanks for all the amazing content, Dr. Dray!! ❤️

[@LilBoPeep777]

The Cosrx snail mucin has been good to my acne prone skin. I have not broken out in a few months due to finding a better products ...SOOOO HAPPY ! The Hada Labo foaming face wash is now a Holy Grail. The bottle is almost empty and I will repurchase. My 19yr old son has his own bottle of the foaming wash too. He struggled with acne for 4 years. Now he doesn't break out using Retin A, Hada Labo wash and Hada Labo serum.

[@JRNarian]

The reason why there are concerns about using snails is about putting them in laboratories and seeing them as something to market from. They belong in nature. I appreciate that you are responding to the concerns in a respectful way and know that a lot of the products you talk about on your channel are vegan/cruelty-free. Have a great day, Dr. Dray!

[@Thundercleese1]

I heard they just crush the snails to get the mucin. Idk why or how they could get as much product from them just crawling around so it seems more logical to me they would be crushed esp on a large scale. But apparently some claim to “steam bath” or salt them so it depends on the breeders ig.

[@brirose230]

Also most of the brands she recommends test on animals unfortunately 🙁

I can’t stop repurchasing HL cleansing oil as well! It is simple and straight to the point… Amazing!

[@mariesikk]

I have been loving the new Peach Slices rich snail cream. It works great on my oily combo skin and never stings even when I use actives.

[@eobrien1]

Oooh I wanna try this! I have only used their snail serum toner. Didn’t know they had a cream!

[@mariafernandaanchundia8802]

Dr Gray ! I repurchased the nail corx cream. It is not in your head. It is actually very amazing. I will use it in the morning. The old people in the nursing home will ask me for that cream! 🤣🤣🤣 it leaves a sticky sensation but I personally don't mind

[@1987angelamarie]

That Kerasal is one of my new holy grails thanks to you! Loved every recommendation of yours that I've tried!

[@WiseFamin]

Hada Labo FTW! I may have started using the cleansing oil after I heard you talk about it, and I've continued to purchase the refill bags for the last few years. Double cleansing is a bit messy (especially if you're doing it at the sink, not in the shower), but this cleansing oil is the best. It really gets all the gunk and oil off my oily skin. And it lasts for months!! My other holy grail Hada Labo product is the UV perfect gel sunscreen. I honestly wish it came it came in a giant Costco-sized tub.That and the Round Lab Mugwort Calming Cream. I can't tell you how great my skin looks after using the Round Lab one at night. Even better than slugging! It's amazing! Thank you for telling us about that one. Coincidentally, I tried the Procare Rosacure on my sensitive/rosacea skin and it didn't agree with me for some reason. That and the Cerave Healing Ointment are the only ones I couldn't tolerate (I use Aquaphor instead). Thanks for this great list! Reminds me I need to get the Cosrx one again. I do love the Overnight Rice cream one though!

[@SharonInDenver]

I was playing along guessing which products would be in the all time top 10. Nope I didn't cheat. But I was getting panicky as each of the products were revealed and still no mention of Kerasal. Then...ta da! Kerasal at the end! Phew. You got me hooked on it and every time I go through another tube I think - I need to add this to Dr. Dray's empties bin! By the way, I also use so many of the other products you mentioned too because of you. I can honestly say BDD (Before Dr. Dray) I never tried anything I really liked enough to use up a whole container of anything. Until I sunscreened and subscribed!

[@sarahpeace1997]

It’s crazy that you’re in the ad for your own video , love you Dr. Dray!

[@Thetinyfit]

I just recently got the DRMTLGY tinted spf and it is holy grail. Love the tinted Elta MD, but this is just…wowza. I like thick and this isn’t so I didn’t think it would be for me, but it wears so nice on the skin and under makeup. I’m in Arizona so I NEED good SPF and they sure nailed it!

[@jenniferw1595]

Did you buy the all mineral tinted DRMTLGY or the one that is the mix between mineral and chemical? I am really wanting to try it but can only use mineral sunscreens.

[@Thetinyfit]

@@jenniferw1595 the one I use is hybrid, sorry!

[@mariacamilamoreno2621]

Hi what is your skin tone ? Trying to figure out if it would work for me, I am definitely darker than dr dray hehe

[@Thetinyfit]

Maria camila Moreno half Hispanic so olive but not very dark. Generally medium beige in foundation items

[@marsha2703]

Can you wear the DRMTLGY tinted by itself? Does it cover like makeup? I am in Arizona too

[@mariedolan1205]

My favourite product for older skin is always Eucerin or cereve body lotion! Trust me I’ve tried them all and no cream reduces wrinkles just softens the look of the skin! I’m 67 and speak from experience

[@janedough6575]

Have you tried the Gold Bond Pure Moisture? It’s so amazing, and I live in the desert.😀

[@jayniestanley4730]

I'm a CereVe girl. The healing ointment is bomb.

[@Blondie727]

Same. I wish they had a cleansing oil being that I double cleanse. 😃

[@jayniestanley4730]

They do have a cleansing balm now.

[@mixelle_0]

I just started using the Hada Labo Goku-jyun Milk Lotion just to add some more moisture into my routine and I am loving it so far. Also loved that I can just get a refill of it 👍🏽

[@kalina2443]

This stuff is great!

[@mariah3654]

I use the "lotion" - it has hyaluronic acid so I don't need to spend the extra $ on Neutrogena Hydroboost, unless I see it at a discount store!

[@jocelynsloan7801]

Same I love that milky lotion!

[@DeborahZajac]

For those of you that have a hard time squeezing out ointments from tubes get yourself a tube ringer. They’re usually in painting supplies for artist. Amazon has them. I use mine for paints, but also for squeezing out the last of my sunscreens, toothpaste, anything in a tube. It makes it so much easier. I have a medium to large one to be able to handle any size tube. My mature dry skin likes the CosRx snail serum, and my heels and callus prone areas of my feet love the Kerasil (sp) ointment.

[@TrappedQue]

I agreed with most products just mentioned, except for the Procure Rosacare. That product almost ruined my skin, glad I stopped using it early enough.

[@lauraguida8482]

You got me hooked on the Kerasal foot ointment for my scary calloused feet. Nothing else I tried has worked as well as this product. It has made a huge difference and I am no longer self conscious about my feet. Thank you!

[@janetmyers3729]

The scraping instruments used in salons are actually bad for your callouses - your feed believe they are being “attacked or injured, so they respond with more build up. When I do get a pedicure, I refuse the foot file. Love Kerasal.

[@juliahelland6488]

I'm definitely going to try Procure Rosacare and the Neutrogena too. Thanks for sharing 💯❣️

[@ninaarmstrong7744]

Love love love the Hada Labo Gokujun Premium Hyaluronic Acid, I purchased it multiple times 💕

[@Saoirse3797]

Hada labo- love love love this stuff. Have tried others but always go back to this one. Equally love the refills without buying another plastic bottle.

[@madams.5976]

Just purchased the oil and “snail moisturizer”. I need a good nighttime moisturizer to go over my serum and this wasn’t terribly expensive. I’m going to give it a try.

[@lauracyr3945]

Colorado native here! VaniCream is my GO TO. I use it on my face and it doesn't bother my rosacea. I love how it feels and it seems to have a calming effect on my skin.

[@juliabinford6500]

Team cerave healing ointment here! I’m going to try it instead of Vaseline for body slugging to see which I like better. I already use it on my face.

[@juliamorris833]

Team Aquaphor over here. Although I did enjoy the CeraVe ointment for healing tattoos for the first few days per my artist

[@wavyjenny602]

Totally agree on the Hada Labo cleansing oil, it’s also the one I compare all other cleansing oils to! I also love their hyaluronic acid emulsion (it’s a clear watery gel) which I use on damp skin under any serums or moisturizers. And their eye and lip area cream which is light and moisturizing. They really are a great brand for hydration 👍

[@mariah3654]

Their lotion is the bomb, and way cheaper than Neutrogena Hydroboost. Both have hyaluronic acid. I put it on first, then Timeless Vitamin C serum

[@Xzouv]

Dr. Dray, I must say you look amazing these days. Skin is popping!!

[@pasta_girl]

The Aveeno calm & restore is my FAVORITE moisturizer and I will be heartbroken if it gets discontinued. Thank you so much for recommending that product to me Dr Dray!! ❤❤

but girls hated dat lotion n wanted it formula changed tho

@@jake9854 the body lotion ain’t it. I was so excited and then disappointed. I don’t know why it’s so hard to create a body lotion that feels as fresh and light as a gel moisturizer

I am really enjoying Eucerin products that you have recommended. I love the COQ10 moisturizer and the essential oil ointment.

[@leasanders3902]

How and where do you use the Eucerin essential oil ointment? I am tempted to try the co q 10 moisturizer. My face is pretty dry. I was thinking of using the essential oil ointment under tretinoin, would it sink in? Don't know if you use tretinoin or not. I am just curious. Thanks

[@drearides1692]

@@leasanders3902 Right now I'm only using the ointment as a lip balm. I have tried it once on my legs before bed and my legs were quite soft the next day. I am not currently using Tretinoin, although I am using Differin gel. The COQ10 moisturizer is awesome.

[@rosamoreno4794]

The Hada Labo cleansing oil is the champ of champs. No one beats it, and they better not.

[@tigre9271]

I've tried a LOT of Hada Labo and the only 2 I keep repurchasing is the Cleansing oil and the HA essence (premium gold) for the driest skin type. Also love the Cosrx Gel cream and the sheet mask. Also love Aveeno Calm and Restore Gel Cream but only use it to calm my skin if I go too heavy on my retinA or acids. For my melasma, I have seen improvement with SkinFix Correct Dark Spot Corrector. Just don't over apply and stay consistent.

[@dlraines5133]

I started using the PanOxyl cleanser underarm mask tip for odor. I don’t have bad body odor but I have sensitive underarms. I like using the unscented secret which works well. Some evenings I don’t need a full shower. I can use the PanOxyl and reapply my secret at night. I use the cream. It’s super gentle. No perfumes. The tip about using antiperspirant at night was a game changer too!
