A Dermatologist's Nighttime Skincare Routine (Drugstore & High End) | Dr. Jenny Liu

Here's my current nighttime skincare routine as a board-certified dermatologist! My routine changes with the weather. Now that it's colder and almost winter, I add in a hydrating step and switch my moisturizer. How do you change your routine as it gets colder? Comment below!

I'm so glad I found you, you are a dermatologist and have the same skin type as me, wonderfull!!

[@buttface3875]

I read this as ‘Nightmare Routine’ at first 😂

[@danielaquinteros2880]

👌😂😂😂

[@luciaortiz840]

🤣 me too

[@czbalmaceda]

Thank you. Now I know when to put essence.

[@whitneybrown4067]

This is 4 Sure Gonna b so Helpful JL🔥🔥🔥👍….

[@jenniferroserocks8017]

Thank you for sharing your night time routine Dr. Liu! You did another video about the two Alastin products you like, the nectar and the Restorative Skin Complex. I purchased the latter and I will be some what following your p.m. routine, although I guess I will use the Restorative Skin Complex as a moisturizer at the end? I am excited to see what the extra peptides in my routine can do! Your skin is fabulous!

[@dr.jennyliu]

Thank you. I hope you like it . I actually use it like a serum bc I like a richer moisturizer afterwards

[@jenniferroserocks8017]

Thank you Dr. Liu! I LOVE it! I have challenging skin and the Alastin Restorative has really clarified and brightened my skin so much! Thank you for sharing your routine!!! I used to use the Tatcha Essence but stopped, I bought a small one so that I can follow your routine and I forgot how nice it is! Would you be willing to do a video recommending other essences that you approve? I have researched the Missha (there is regular, mugwart, red algae) and Neogen. Also, is Tatcha safe to use around the eyes? I don’t expect you to answer this comment but thank you for sharing your recommendations and for sharing your knowledge!

[@katrinadeleon6557]

Hi Dr. Jenny! Thank you so much for sharing your routine. I plan on trying the Cerave benzoyl peroxide to curb my hormonal acne as well. I’d like to ask, when you do your weekly exfoliant treatment, do you follow with your retinoid or skip it altogether? Thanks in advance!

[@gloriaforzaglia982]

Dear Dr. Jenny. I love your routine and I'm gonna use some of your products. My question is, How long should you leave your cleanser on before rinsing off?

[@nicolemarr9173]

Loved this! I have dry acne prone skin, which I rarely hear anyone talk about! I have only tried salicylic acid cleansers before so definitely going to reach for ceraves benzoyl peroxide wash and see how I like it! Is it better to use this wash in the PM?

[@user-ts6ws8fk2h]

Hi Dr Jenny. I just found your videos and love them! They are so helpful and insightful! I was wondering if you have any experience with the Derma E skincare line. Ulta has it on their website as one of the dermatologist recommended brands and I would love to hear your thoughts on it! Thank you!

[@ingrid48]

I thought it said your nightmare skincare routine lol I adore essences! Tatcha is wonderful, but my favorite is Diorsnow essence, or Dior Capture Totale👍👍

[@roweena7102]

Thank you for your very informative videos…what do you recommend for melasma night time skin care routine? Please reply…thanks.

[@robind.5370]

Hi Dr. Liu. Can the tatcha essence be used twice a day and if yes, is it okay to use before using the SkinCeuticals vitamin c serum or should the essence product not be used in conjunction with vitamin c. Thank you.

[@janinadalziel7707]

On the nights you use the AHA, is it the same step as the retinoid or should it be layered differently? Thank you in advance!

[@trenab]

Where in your routine do you use the exfoliant? Do you wear it all night or wash it off before applying the other products 🤔?

[@pausang7900]

Should I use clindamycin after using that cleanser?

[@kabagisngailokana]

Hi dr jenny can i use hydro boost water gel moisturizer with hyaluronic acid while on tretinoin?

[@deannavazquez4718]

I had a question 😭 I wanted to know if I can and should use cervae salicylic acid for closed comedones? Or differin with benzoyl peroxide ? Or can I use both salicylic acid in the morning? And benzoyl peroxide at night?

[@bwhite964]

Dr. Jenny Liu, I have been using the benzoyl peroxide cleanser and love it! I was wondering when you use your leave on exfoliating treatment do you also use a benzoyl peroxide cleanser or a non medicated one? Thank you!

[@dr.jennyliu]

I alternate at night between my RETINOIDS

[@isabelgregorio1019]

Hello! And how do you incorporate chemical exfoliants into your weekly routine? 1 to 2 x a week, but instead of retinoid, correct? Thank you for sharing

[@rinaflores4324]

So its just fine to use peptide serum on retinoid nights?

[@Juliet42110]

Hello, Do you suggest the Tretinoin gel or cream for someone in their 40s who is very acne prone and struggles with melasma. I'm nervous to start the cream due to some of the ingredients in it that might clog pores. Thank you so much!

[@galato4234]

Please give us options OTC for the Alastin. Thanks.

[@CreepyRecordings]

Please do not follow a spicific KZbin or influencer routine. Take suggestions from them and new products to try and see maybe they work for you. However do know that every skin is really different from others! Keep searching and be resourceful and know yourself and yourskin and what it want and always remember - Good night sleep - Good healthy diet - working out… these are things will boost your tretinoin about 300%

[@latuvdajones2885]

I have combination skin. It is dry mostly around my nose. Is Essence a toner?

[@kajalpanchal233]

When would you use vitamin c syram

[@meaganmackenzie5068]

Thanks for sharing this! I had heard that we weren't supposed to mix BP with retinoids. Based on your video, can you use a BP wash and apply retinol/tretinoin afterwards?

[@dr.jennyliu]

Yes

[@rayahmoniquesarausa7370]

@@dr.jennyliu Hi Doc, a skincare influencer made a reel on Instagram about this and her derma told her that even a BPO cleanser in the same routine as tretinoin is a no no. What's the truth?

[@lucydeboxer2565]

OMG, the Alastin Skin Nectar is $210!!! And, the Neck Complex is $123!!! Can't believe these products can be worth that kind of investment.

[@VanessaGlitter]

Is the LRP Toleriane ok for seb derm?

[@jayadama1301]

Nightime routine are everyday use at night?
