She is the best. I had Dr. Stephen as my dermatologist. Too bad her office is always packed and have to schedule months before because she is that good. I suffer from melasma and she helped me alot. She made me realized I was using too much product which could lead to irritation and more hyperpigmentation.

[@rosemary5005]

✨Happy new year to you too!! ✨ You’re my no 1 dermatologist and I’ve learned so much from you! Like “start low and go slow”, a really good rule of thumb! My skincare new year resolution will be finding good sunscreens and reapplying them regularly! I have good sleep and that’s another thing that I care for and I also know that it works! It’s really beauty sleep, and I amp it up with a good night time face oil or a sleeping mask ✨🧖🏻‍♀️✨ I’m really looking forward to following you 2022 😺 I’m sure this year will be awesome!! Thank you so much!! 💫

[@HKCCNN]

Hi Dr. Stephens! I’ve been following your routine for treating hyperpigmentation with cheaper products you recommended and finally got my hands on csypera. Can you advise me how to incorporate this into my routine, please? I saw on your video to use cyspera, azelaic acid suspension 10% and tranexamic acid. I have all 3 products now. I also bought the inkey list salicylic acid cleanser for hormonal acne and the oat cleaning balm for regular use. For a moisturizer I bought the naturium one you recommended and bukuchiol. For sunscreen I bought absolute joi Tinted Moisturizer With SPF 40 Mineral Sunscreen I also have the Josie Karan enzyme cleanser, B oil, 15% Vit C + EGF serum, alpha arbutin 2%+ HA from my cheaper days. Should I stop using these and just follow the outline below? Cleanse, treat with cyspera, azelaic acid suspension 10% and tranexamic acid, moisturize, and use sunscreen. And continue exfoliating 1-2 per week? I didn’t understand this part and was using the Josie maran twice per day for months. I know cyspera targets multiple pigment pathways so I don’t want to be doubling up on steps with too many products. I would appreciate your feedback if you have time. Thanks for all the great information. My skin has improved so much in the last 6 months that even my family noticed haha.

[@alisonchristiana]

if you haven't done so already, can you do a video on syncing your skincare with your monthly cycle phases? thank you! so appreciate all the content you create here.

[@DrAlexisStephens]

Glad it was helpful! I absolutely love pique tea as well

[@catherinedesilets8960]

WOW 🤩 you, your mom & your daughter are all GORGEOUS These tips are so useful & practical The only thing I’m struggling with is tretinoin.. I’ll use it & then my face is all irritated for the next 3-4 days So it feels like I’m harming my skin more than anything (it’s 0.01% not even the base 0.025% that’s considered less intense 😭)

[@Future-zx9ts]

Buffer it with moisturizer. Cleanse, moisturize, wait 15-30 minutes, then apply the Tretinoin. Apply a moisturizer afterwards, too, if needed. Also cut back on other actives ( vitamin C, chemical exfoliants, etc) until your skin becomes more acclimated to it. I’ve been using tret off and on for 20 years, and I still don’t use it every night. Good luck, and hope that helps a little!

Hello Dr. Stephens, Thank you for all of your information! I wanted to know if you had a video on what exactly a basic skin care routine should look like. As in cleanser, toner, moisturizer, exfoliator etc and why we include each step. It hit me when you said a 12-20 step routine isn’t needed (which hands down cause I was never gonna keep up with all that😂😂😂) . Thank you for your time and effort, you’ve got all of us out here killing it 💪🏾🥂💁🏾‍♀️

[@diannaachando9160]

Thank you for these tips. Targeting to make a habit of washing my hands before I wash my face, sleeping with the humidifier on and reapplying my sunscreen.

Since subscribing to you I have learned a lot and I pulled out my sunscreen and start using it. Thank goodness I don't have any skin issues. I would like to Get a recommendation from you for a sunscreen in a compact that's not as pricey as the skinbetter science. Thank you so much, you're awesome😊

[@MS-bn3rg]

I could improve at: using lukewarm water, changing pillowcases often, Re-applying sunscreen, & quality of sleep

[@DallasNatureLover]

Love the video where Dr Stephens takes products out of her mom’s shopping basket and puts them back on the shelf 🤣

[@moriahmacbeth7284]

Wonderful video! ❤️👏🏻 It seems like these things are not often thought/talked about as much, since it’s easy to just get caught up in the buzziest new product. But these simple tips are so effective and make such an impact in overall skin health. The expiration date realization I had recently really made me kick myself for all the overbuying and over-testing of new products. I have so many that are no longer effective, thus have been wasted. Hate that. It helped to change the way I viewed buying skincare... focusing on buying what you need (which also means becoming more ingredient-smart), when you need it, can be more helpful for both skin and wallet, and of course much less wasteful.
