@@ranjanikudlugi My skincare is very simple. Night time: Cleanse with Purity Made Simple, remove eye makeup with coconut oil, apply prescription strength Retin-A, moisturize with fragrance free Curel, apply Clinique eye cream, then eyelash serum. Morning: cleanse with water, apply CeraVe eye cream, moisturize with Curel, sunscreen, apply makeup. Three times per week I add Niacinamide (The Ordinary) to Curel in the morning. I don't exfoliate since my skin is sensitive. Easy Breezy!

[@PiquantPotato]

@@MyDogSteppedOnaBeee the retinol sandwich was a tip if you get irritation from retinol or have sensitive skin. Since the extra moisturizing step beforehand makes the retinol less irritating. Both methods are fine. One is just more beginner friendly. You might for example transition from sandwiching to normal moisturizing as your skin tolerates the retinol better

[@rachelmelissa1040]

Could I please add a question to this topic? If we are using a retinol topically, is it safe to use in the two/three week period of time between conception and a missed period/positive pregnancy test? For instance, I typically drink a glass of wine per week, but I know that the baby would be completely safe if I were to get pregnant without realizing. Would using retinol only once a week make it safe, or using it at a really low concentration, or a combination of both? I’m not saying that I would be drinking alcohol or using a retinol while intentionally trying to get pregnant, but realistically speaking women can get pregnant for a very large portion of their life (puberty to menopause). I’ve also had a lot of friends get pregnant while on birth control who didn’t know until they had a missed period. Does this make any sense? I would really like to start using retinol, but only if it is safe during those first couple weeks of the baby’s life. If it’s not safe, then I would just wait to use it until after menopause. Personally, beautiful/youthful skin would never be worth the risk of giving a baby preventable birth defects. Thank y’all so so much for the content y’all put out, I truly appreciate it!!!😊

[@latinaalma1947]

@@rachelmelissa1040 The most dangerous time for a fetus with alcohol intake by the mother is the second trimester. This is when the brain is developing rapidly anatomically. Structures can be massively impaired with heavy intake of alcohol duirng this period leading to actual HOLES ie large amounts of brain tissue is MISSING when the infant is born and can never grow into those spaces. This lowers IQ and can affect several areas of the brain having other bad effects...ie fetal alcohol syndrome. Studies show that the level of drinking from one drink up affects the fetus first mildly, then severely, ie it is dose specific. Fetal alcohol syndrome also affects facial and other anatomical structures ie appearance. Some features include low placed ears ie the top of the ear sits below the eyebrow level; webbing between fingers and toes similar to a ducks webbing...and five other signs of damage. Other things can cause these anamolies, but more than three or four on the list is predictive of some level brain damage as well, which can be confirmed by MRi. The link between alcohol consumption and fetal damage was first noted in WWII Holland just after the war with alcoholic mothers giving birth to statistically signifigant lower IQ babies, studied restrospectively. This then led to other research on the effect of alcohol on the fetus. Later tobacco use was studied when statistically signifigant lowered birth weight was noted in smoking mothers. Many drugs, even endogenous (ie in the MOTHER) high cortisol levels, have a negative effect on the fetus. That means high stress levels in the mother make for higher cortisol levels in the fetus and potential damage to functional fetal brain development. This is why children from highly stressed environments often develop behavioral issues esp. when they too are in a stressful,environment eg anger, physical,or emotional abuse, etc. The more stress , the more damage is done and brain function can be impaired for life with emotional disregulation etc. resulting. Not familiar with the literature specifically on Retin A and fetal development though....Sybil Francis, PhD retired prof of psychology and researcher PS ...You are correct that alcohol is commonly consumed before a woman is present but chromosomal damage can occur then. It is wisest to not drink alcohol at all BUT if a fertile woman does, it is then best to use birth control and stop all alcohol once off birth control. Damage is dose specific so binge drinking would be the MOST dangerous.

So, I'm 30 and from this vantage point I wish I had started retinol in my 20s. However, in retrospect I can see that it took me until the later part of my second decade alive to really understand my skin, how to take care of it, and most importantly, that skin care is not a race, but a marathon. So, while I agree that waiting to use a retinoid likely decreases the positive outcomes, I also think any treatments should be incorporated into a more holistic system that includes - and even emphasizes - using sunscreen religiously.

[@gidget_]

It can be very irritating. Most retinoids counter act with vitamin C serums. I use my retnoid at night and vitamin c in the day. Make sure to use a good sunscreen. While using a Vitamin C It is a very important step. I learned the hard way. 😆 start using your retnoid slowly and then introduce the vitamin c serum. Hope this helps.

[@rituthevirgo]

Can you please give a review about strivectin super c retinol ???

[@chelseakomula7224]

I believe that retinoids can promote the oxidation of vitamin C. This oxidation causes vitamin C to be more irritating and actually can diminish the results you’re looking for from vitamin C. My go-to is vitamin C during the day (it’s in my sun-screen and contributes to the benefits of sun-screen) and retinoid at night.

[@Andrea-cg4xm]

I read somewhere that you can apply them on alternate nights or like said above, retinol at night and vit c in the morning. Just don't forget your sunscreen🥳

[@ms.pensive4028]

We can use a derivative of Vit C such as tetrahexydecyl ascorbate rather than ascorbic acid. Both can be used together at night.

[@ByWhatLogic]

My wife introduced me to this channel last night and I ended up watching about a dozen videos. I have NEVER had any specific skincare routine. I'm in my mid 30s and I'd say my skin is pretty good. I feel like i should pay a bit more attention to my skin health so I'm going to start cleansing, moisturizing and sunblocking daily and will add retinol a few times a week for the anti aging benefits. One question i have which you guys may have addressed in another video that i just haven't seen yet, but can you please specifically discuss tips for guys to care for the skin under their facial hair? I notice that when i haven't shaven for a few weeks, my skin gets more flaky and prone to acne in my beard and mustache areas. It seems to me that this could simply be due to an inherent lack of exfoliation as well as oil buildup from the hair growing out, but it could be really valuable for a lot of guys if you could recommend some things specific to having some facial hair. Maybe additionally comment on some of the beard care products on the market and which ones you'd consider good/bad, for what use cases, etc. I don't personally ever maintain a beard for more than a month so I've never used oils or balms or anything, but my brother and dad do.

Should we put a retinoid on our neck as well for anti-aging?

[@kylebolton8147]

I think you can but try to find a gentle one and start off with only 1 time a week. The neck skin is a LOT THINNER than face skin (other than under the eye) so please be super careful. I would wash your neck, then use a moisturizer while it is wet and then let it dry. Do not use retinoids on wet skin as it can increase irritation and the efficacy is fairly similar. Serious irritation can actually make the issues work so just be careful not to overuse as you skin adjusts. Make sure to wear sunscreen too or your skin can actually end up worse (retinol makes your skin more sensitive to UV rays).

[@Lvmykidos2]

I’ve been able to acclimate my neck to 0.05% tretinoin. It took a while and there were times I would have to baby my irritated neck for a week or 2, but now, I can use it nearly every night. Just start slow, 1 night a week for a couple of weeks, then 2 nights (like Monday & Thursday night) for a couple of weeks, then 3 nights, etc, and definitely moisturize heavily.

So so grateful for this channel and you guys! I'm learning so much that I've been desperately wanting to know for years 💗

[@wendysiabatohooper1504]

I´m literally laughing while watching this video. I love how genuine you guys are in your videos! P.S. I have two questions: 1) if I use Retinoids for anti-aging during my night skincare routine, should I be using something else during the day? I´m 25 and besides treating my dark circles I would like to start taking care of my skin for anti-aging purposes and making my skin look (dewy) good without make-up. 2) could you make a video reviewing/talking about different Retinoids from different brands, for example from The Ordinary?

He can’t help it that he has sexy eyes! He would probably look at a rock like that! 😂

[@em4227]

[@kristinedrucker5941]

[@andreesandahl300]

OMG I’m a disaster! Started using a retinoids in my 50’s ... more than a dozen years ago. File it under better late than never :)

[@humanityfirst5228]

You two have such an amazing chemistry, will look amazing as couple ❤

[@82jow]

Me too, fascinated how Dr. Max looks at Dr. Shah. I wish Dr. Max look at me that way. I am gonna melt for sure. 😂🤣

[@looow]

hahaha idk how I got so addicted to you guys' videos but I'm loving how much fun you guys have together!

[@paolachung6918]

Idk if this is a dumb question but when should you visit a dermatologist vs an aesthetician!? 💜 love your channel!

[@AJ-yo8nc]

Maxwell smolders more. I watch all the time; never comment but have to say love you guys! Dr J

[@StanWatt.]

[@Doctorly]

See! One count for Dr Maxfield! - Dr Shah

What does it mean

Guys, thanks for the great content! Question: can you do a video about safely mixing and spacing active ingredients? I use retinol (Differin), BHA, occasionally AHA, and a vitamin C + hyaluronic acid serum. I usually alternate retinol and BHA at night, use the vitamin C and sunscreen every morning, and take days off from active ingredients. I have sensitive skin and don’t necessarily love the AHA so recs for an alternative would be great. Thanks!

[@lamentesse]

WOW this is such a helpful video and I love your attention to beauty things women of color may be doing like brow threading and just attention to skin of color in general. I love where you talked about how hyperpigmentation affects skin of color in a lot of your videos it made me more confident in taking your advice. So hard to find doctors who are cognizant of their patients health needs and not just throwing the guidelines and textbooks at them. Would love to see a video on how to layer skincare for darker skinned women suffering from hyperpigmentation!

I just can't stop laughing 🤣🤣🤣..keep it up

Thanks for all you guys and your team do to put this content together and share it. Back when I was a teen I thought "skincare" was all about those exfoliating cleansers. I've never actually had bad acne, just the occasional pimple cluster in my t-zone and some breakouts on my chest, but somehow I got the message that THAT was terrible acne and the way to fix it was to scrub it off my face XD. Well, the kinds of products marketed to teenagers back in the early 2000s were extremely drying and irritating to me (shocker). So I tried it for like a month, hated it, and have just used bar soap and lotion since. (In my defense, the bar soap was moisturizing and had shea butter in it!) I turned 30 this year, and completely by accident, have developed a hyper-fixation on skincare. I'm really enjoying treating my skin well and this channel has done a lot to help me sort through all of the information and viral "hacks" that are out there. I've been slowly trying new things and adding a retinoid is the next thing I intend to tackle. TLDR: Thanks again for answering all of these questions! Until recently, I thought retinal was only about anti-aging and was kinda scared of it since I've heard that it was also irritating to sensitive skin. But these kinds of videos have really helped re-educate me! I'll try not to be too discouraged at the "disaster" that is waiting to start retinal until I'm 30. ;)

[@jillclark2310]

I'm so happy I found your channel! Could you do a video on what ingredients to avoid using in conjunction with a retinol? I just started using salicylic acid (which I love!) and want to start incorporating a retinol into my routine, however, I'm not sure if I should alternate them nightly (e.g., salicylic acid night 1, retinol night 2 ....), or include more of a gap (e.g., salicylic acid night 1, neither night 2, retinol night 3....).

[@Kayhxo]

I totally agree with Dr Maxfield being the smoldering one and Dr Shah being the smiling one 😂 Love both though and you two compliment each other so nicely!

[@cookbykhanam4806]

I have wrinkles under my eye and I have heard that ordinary retinol shouldn’t be used around eye area so please suggest something for lines under eye.
