Dermatologist's ONLY choice for wrinkle prevention

[@thehonestchannel]

A few viewers have asked how you can just wash off sunscreen with water as Dr Frey suggested she does. I emailed her to ask about it and have included her response below : ) Dr Frey said: Your viewers asked a great question. Topical skincare products do not build up on the skin. The cells on the skin surface are in a constant state of desquamation. In addition, sunscreen application, assuming the person applied the product liberally, has only been shown to last 6 - 8 hours, based on science. (This doesn't include if the person wearing it is sweating, swimming or wiping it off during sport in which case it lasts for a much shorter period of time, probably less than 2 hours.) With that being said, most people apply their sunscreen in the morning. The majority of folks don't reapply. Those who do reapply, usually do so midday. Since the sunscreen only remains on the skin surface for 8 hours, a nightitme facial wash with water at bedtime is all that I recommend. And I have no scientific proof that washing just with water is even necessary. I never use a cleanser and I apply sunscreen every morning and most afternoons. If an individual wishes to wash their face with a soap-free cleanser in the evening to remove the dirt, oil, sebum, and every bit of any topical product they had applied that day, that's fine. But there is no scientific proof that it 's necessary. Keep in mind they will also be removing the vital lipids and proteins that are necessary to keep the skin hydrated. Unfortunately, cleansers are drying. They are designed to remove things and they don't discriminate. They remove the unwanted and wanted particles on the skin. Hope this answers your question.

[@denise2534]

Actually, it’s still does not. I do reapply sunscreen, true it is mid day when I do so, but it definitely is still on my skin at the end of the day. I can see it on my washcloth when I wash my face. And water is definitely not enough to get it off. I feel like if I did not take it off completely that it would be unhealthy to leave it on my skin. It definitely does not absorb into the skin. It lays on the top of the skin. I use natural mineral sunscreen. I use the tinted version on my face. I use the untinted for my neck and décolleté. Neither product comes off without soap. Thank you very much for the reply, though. I was definitely curious what would be said.

[@marg6196]

I think the doctor left out the use of a mechanical aid like a facecloth or sponge. I doubt she meant just splashing water on your face?

[@janicewalker477]

@Mary Faulkner What about burns leading, potentially, to skin cancer? I agree that sunlight can help some ppl with depression. While being out in the sunshine is naturally uplifting, I understand it is the sunlight entering the eyes where receptors help the brain make chemicals (hormones?) that are necessary to combat depression. I’m not medically trained, but I think Andrew Huberman has a video on the connection. That said, I believe limited sun exposure W/O sunscreen is reasonable barring sunburns.

[@Hermitas]

I actually use sunscreen OBSESSIVELY, especially after my dermatologist attributed my fairly young-looking skin to my diligent sunscreen use. I really don’t mess around. So, for me, there IS a SERIOUS build-up on my skin after 6-8, .5 teaspoon applications of tinted, mineral-based sunscreen by the end of the day! It’s to the point where it’s a chore getting it off and I even end up just leaving some of it on me as a result. Oh well. Can it really hurt? I don’t know. I am going to try different products to help remove it, as I think leaving it on can block other actives like a tretinoin product from getting fully absorbed into the skin. Aside from that, the skin has to BREATHE. I got the sunscreen application routine pretty much down. It’s the sunscreen REMOVAL that I don’t yet have down. I mean, it’s a mess - it’s all in my ears, behind my ears and even in my hairline. I can see why people do not use enough sunscreen often enough!

Great answer on “good old sunshine” :)

[@lisabafundo4355]

I been using Tretinoin for 5 years and I can honestly say i look younger at 58 than when i was 48..it's taken years off my face, I've never had any adverse reactions including peeling but, I'm an exception to the rule. That being said, i used retinol prior to Retin A, and also had great results but, know your ingredients and sunscreen diligently. Great interview Claire 😊

[@catspeakegroove]

Me too. Totally works.

[@olga_b344]

What strength Tret do you use? x

[@lisabafundo4355]

@olga_b344 0.1 gel. I have been using it for 8-9 years. But my skin is on the oily side, and I live in a humid climate.

[@mtmg3648]

My friends has ONLY used water and sunscreen on her face for over sixty years and she is gorgeous. My grandmothers used Ponds cold cream tissued off at night and a cold water splash in the morning. They all looked beautiful. I have travelled third world countries where the women do not have skin care routines and do not eat processed foods. Again- they look beautiful.

[@recoveringbaptist2023]

I discovered Pond's Cold Cream wayyyy back in the early 70's (I'm 68). I would smear it all over my eyes to melt my waterproof mascara; I'd wipe it off after an hour, and noticed over the years it was great for eye wrinkles. I'd wake up in the morning and my skin was soft and plumped. Now that I'm nearly 70 and my skin has become drier, I put it all over my face and neck at night, and by morning it's soft. People always tell me I look very young for my age too.

[@lauriebrown9714]

I’ve only used water and made my own creams ( Shea, coconut, rose hips etc) for years. No face make up. I’ve been careful about sun exposure more often than not. I only smoked very little till the age of 32 and I quit. My 67 yo skin looks like crap. I’m sorry I didn’t take a more aggressive approach to skin care earlier.

[@recoveringbaptist2023]

@Karen Tralies When I was young I did have oily skin, and only used Pond's Cold Cream around my eyes. Now that I'm nearly 70 though, my skin is drier.

[@cathylaver4146]

They have lots of sunshine and good natural food, colder climates obviously don’t have that

[@veronicaroy1766]

I have simplified too. Just kept the micellar water to take off eye makeup. Then sunscreen in the day, and Cerave cream at night. That's it. I am 74, and have skin as good as my mother had who only put on Ponds cream every day and looked great. Celtic skin.

[@missytauler]

She makes a lot of good points about taking a more holistic approach to skincare. One point I disagree with-I do think it’s important to use cleanser if you’re using sunscreen daily.

[@isabellavantichel4459]

I agree as many sunscreen filters are oil soluble and sunscreens in general are emulsions. Lukewarm water is not enough for me to get it off fully.

[@michelletidler6773]

Me too.

[@Joannabanana1989]

My sunscreen is definitely still visible on my face since I apply twice a day. I cannot go to sleep with all of that on there! I do a double cleanse and that doesn’t dry out my skin at all. I do use mostly mineral sunscreens so it is easy to see on my face.

[@venomsorceress]

Especially mineral sunscreen. There is residue even after washing.

I love this Dr. She is absolutely spot on. I quit working in high end/prestige beauty because of all the bs playing on consumers insecurities to make $. I now work in a drugstore selling inexpensive skincare. And I can tell you from my own experience that I saw better results with these products than with the pricey ones. I dont know how I feel about not using a cleanser as I have to with the make up I wear. I do tell all my customers that if you're not going to wear sunscreen than you're just wasting your money on other skincare. Love this video/interview.

[@nandiamond9099]

What is the best sunscreen to use?

[@doloresleonard2227]

Thank you for this very informative video. What was omitted, however, and what generally is omitted in the many conversations about the pros and cons of tretenoin use, is that one can use non prescription versions of retinoids (retinol, for example, found in many relatively inexpensive products) which, although they take considerably longer for notable effects, can really help (in my experience, at least) with the fine lines and lack of skin elasticity inherent in aging, with significantly fewer side effects. I am 73 years old and have used sunscreen on my face and neck 365 days a year for more than 30 years. I briefly tried retin A in my late 40s but stopped because of impatience with redness and dryness. My skin remained very youthful in appearance with just daily SPF and moisturizers as needed, but I did notice some fine lines 5 -6 years ago and decided to add retinol at first daily and now 4-5 times a week. The lines vanished over a one year period and, in all honesty, my skin continues to look remarkably young. It does not appear that my facial skin has aged at all in 5 years.I suspect retinoid products may do a better job moderating change for people without severe signs of aging than in correcting deep wrinkles and significant aging, but I don't know if studies have looked at that specifically. Just my thoughts, but I am also an MD and have done some study review.

[@thehonestchannel]

Good point and it is one that is made by Dr Qian Xu who has appeared on my channel a few times. Her protocol is to start off with tretinoin and then step down to a higher strength retinol.

[@acechadwick]

@Dolores Leonard. You have done exactly what I have done for 40 years. I discovered sunscreen in 1980 and can quite categorically say I have never gone a day without using it on my face. I am 70 and my skin is line free. I have an 11 between my eyebrow but everything else is good. I have used Retin A on and off since 1989, sometimes going for years without but the last 5 (like yourself) 4 or 5 times a week. The best I have found by a mile is the L'Oreal Pure Retinol Serum. It's amazing. The last few months I have also been using Adipeau as I noticed small indentations in the centre of my cheeks. The Adipeau is filling these out. It does seem quite remarkable. But the only thing I would keep of choice is the SPF 50. That is the Holy Grail. Every day all the way!

[@SoundofSilence492]

​@@acechadwick Try a silicone patch at night on the 11. I think they help train your facial muscles also, not to over emote, during the day. Another little trick I found is the inexpensive plastic "retainer" on cheap whitening products. It gives definition back to the area surrounding the mouth! Tho whitening effects are dubious lol.

[@carolpowell2199]

I’ve used tretinoin for 10 yrs. I think probably most people can’t push pass the beginning of using tretinoin because of irritation and flacking of the skin. Takes time and determination to adjust to it, but when the results begin to happen it is well worth it. My skin is thick, pores don’t exist and not one age spot on my face and neck.

[@allytrudie864]

It took me 2 years to adjust to trentinoin. My chin,lips and tip of my nose was red and peeling in parts on most days for 2 years. It was so worth it.

[@cherylross393]

tretinoin is amazing it takes the dead skin off fabulously. I used it very sparingly around my eyes and I don't have deep eye wrinkles now and I'm in my 70's. I think if you mix it with moisturizer it's less harsh.I started using it in my teens because I had bad acne.Very pricey in a tube now.

[@drehoward9670]

Dear Clare - I couldn't love this interview and/or subject any more! 100% on point! I think it is so imperative to truly understand that ultimately skin health is part of whole body health. And much like you and Dr. Frey touched on, the saying "you are what you eat" most definitely applies to skin as well!! I know personally, my skin is infinitely better when I skip sugar for a couple of days. I will never understand how people take a drug (steroids) for a side effect from another drug (tretinoin). But I think that speaks volumes to the marketing power of pharma. And understanding that inflamation is the number one cause of skin aging, why would anyone do this to their skin? Sun damage also is simply inflammation caused by the sun. That is why sun protection is so important. I am now 54, and went on this journey about two years ago. I think I mentioned to you on another one of your posts about Dr. Julia Hunter, and her "whole"istic approach. Her philosophy and attitude towards skincare and marketing is exactly this! All about tested, clean, healthy and healthful ingredients. About treating the body as a whole, including nutrition and excercise, as well as mental health and stress relief! I was such a skincare junkie, always on the hunt for the next great 'IT' product. About a year ago, over a few days I binge watched her YT channel, all her videos that speak of the relation of our diet to our skin, the harmful ingredients in many high priced, and also many so called 'clean' brands. Just submerged myself in exactly this subject. ... For the past year, I have used her products exclusively, and my skin has never looked or felt better. I do also use Truth Treatments 5% Retinol serum twice a week. I would love for you to take the "sunscreen" subject a little further. There has been quite a bit of recent (or recently published) research of especially chemical sunscreens being more damaging than beneficial. I personally have only used physical suncreens for the past two years, and would never put a chemical on my skin ever again. One step further would be the research that it is because of our diet that we even need sunscreen in the first place. The additives in our food that make us susceptible, and that centuries ago people did not need sunscreen, because the food was so rich in antioxidants, minerals and vitamins. ... Truly mind blowing when you start down the rabbit hole :) Dr. Hunter actually also mentions some of the brands that are listed on Dr. Frey's site as having some toxic ingredients. So that would be a whole other video. Thank you for providing actually valuable content! I think we all need to realize what a privilege aging HEALTHFULLY is. Our skin is our largest organ, and it is imperative that we feed it with care.

[@thehonestchannel]

I'll definitely look into sunscreen more closely and do a video on it because a lot of people are asking about chemicals in sunscreens etc.

[@SleeplessinOC]

Which physical sunscreen do you use ? I just can’t deal with the white cast that seems impossible to fully work into the skin .

[@drehoward9670]

@@SleeplessinOC I don’t use sunscreen every day - and that’s a whole other discussion about researching the sunscreen debate. When I do, I use Plumscreen fro Le Prunier. Some of the zinc and titanium in some physical sunscreens can also be harmful. Plumscreen is the only thing other than home made that I will use. Truth Treatments also has an excellent ZnO Block. It doesn’t say that it’s a ‘sunblock’, but that’s what it is. Hope this helps. Best of luck

Hello Clare from Illinois, U.S.A. I'm a new subscriber who has been using various sunscreens for 49 years. When I was twenty, I read an article in one of my mother's magazines that described the discovery about daily sunscreen use as an aging preventative. I'm now 69 and people are shocked when they find out how old I am. In the 70's, all I had was Coppertone SPF 4, so I used that on my face every morning under my makeup. I have used Eucerin Daily sunscreen lotion, SPF 30, for years. It is the only thing I put on my face in the morning under my makeup, mostly due to its non-irritating, lightweight and silky texture. The real key to choosing products is how they make your skin feel. We need things that we will happily and consitently use.

[@mtmg3648]

This doctor is 100% correct! I worked for The Journal of Drugs in Dermatology and know some of the best derms in the world. MANY use very little on their skin aside from sunscreen. They understand that the skin's microbiome and Ph is self regulating and, aside from inflammatory conditions, should not be disturbed. I have been told many times by derms that they would never advise their skincare routine to their patients. Most simply use an oil to cleanse and sunscreen. I always found this comment strange.

This was so interesting, Clare! While I agree that sunscreen protects against photoaging, what about those of us who did not have effective sunscreens in our childhood? I played outside year 'round, got burned in the summer frequently, and have wrinkly spotty skin to show for it. I started using weak SPF when they became available, so since my 30s I've been religious about SPF. I'm so confused now if there is anything I can do to make it look better at 75. Regarding cleansing, if we use a lot of mineral SPF and water-resistant SPF, don't we have to use a cleanser to get it off? Or, are we supposed to just build up layers and layers of SPF over the years? What about using oil to break up water-resistant SPF and tinted SPF-- is that out the window, too? Oh so many questions! I bought her book. Thank you for searching for interesting people to interview!!!

@@thehonestchannel Hey Claire, I Love your channel! Would you possibly review mineral sunscreens from companies that are ONLY Cruelty Free please? And maybe some from lesser known, small businesses. And also one's that don't have ANY crap ingredients like methyl/propyl/ parabens, or silicone? And maybe recommendations of one's best for day-to-day, limited sun exposure, & other's more suited to for a long day of sun exposure? I find it Really disheartening that MANY, if not MOST beauty vloggers review makeup & skincare products that aren't cruelty free, yet have pets, that apparently they love; there is this disconnect to the pain & suffering of animals that are so CRUELY used in the testing of these products. The ONLY beauty vlogger that I am aware of that has Banned reviewing ANY Non-Cruelty free product is Elle Leary. If EVERY beauty influencer banned together & Flat out Refused to review Any Non-Cruelty Free product, the industry would be FORCED to change, & change Quickly! This day & age they absolutely rely on beauty influencers to sell their products. If EVERY influencer was made to watch a video on the HEINOUS ABUSE these animals suffer, I don't think that ANYONE would be able to live with their conscience knowing that they were helping to aid & abett this Torturous Cruelty! It's pretty interesting that your guest points to more evidence about how there is really no True scientific evidence that confirms that Tretinoin is actually the "Gold Standard". "Someone" made that up apparently, & everyone has bought it, hook, line, & sinker! I would however, like to know more about the efficacy a Phyto Retinol, like backuchiol.

[@IndigooceanOrg]

I appreciate your bringing her to us, but I'm going to take my own advice on this one. I'm 56 and always mistaken for younger than that and can definitely see the difference even 0.025 tretinoin makes in my skin. It is definitely smoother with less blotchiness, and I get hardly any flaking so long as I use a moisturizer over it that is made for dry skin. I may only do it for a year, since I understand you get maximum effect in about that time, but may decide to just keep going since the only downside is not being able to use an even stronger active like glycolic acid those nights I use tret. I have a feeling this doc wouldn't want us using the acids either, so no way to get ahead there. But yes, most of the youthfulness I display now comes from many years of avoiding most sun damage. You can definitely see the spots on my skin where I wasn't doing a good job due to how straw hats were rubbing off the sunscreen without providing complete coverage to that area. It's just that going forward, I'm at an age where more is needed for repair, not just prevention. And I definitely notice that I get clogged pores, bumps, and blackheads if I don't wash with a facial cleanser at least once a day to get off the grime and products from the day. I can at least appreciate her minimalist stance though, being sure to ask ourselves what's actually making a difference for us and focusing just on that. I'm finding more and more things that make a difference these days, based on having enough damage to see improvements being made. I tried a new product combo this weekend that blew me away. It was one sent to me for free with a Medicube device I bought. I now don't want to ever be without that combo, which completely eliminated my forehead wrinkles overnight. Not permanently, but I'd never seen where you do something one day then wake up the next day with absolutely smooth skin where it used to be a bit crepey. I give this as an example to say, let the games continue.

Sunscreen no matter whether its mineral or chemical, when used on my face, it makes my eyes nearly jump out of their sockets. Also, what do you use when the damage is already done?

[@acechadwick]

Gill what works for me is: Take the sunscreen up to the bone under the eye socket and then I use Burt Bees 40% zinc diaper cream (which doesn't sting around the eyes). It's a phenomenal sunblock but it does leave a white cast. However I then put make up on top and you can''t see it.

I’d like to hear her thoughts on eczema. Both adult and baby

[@brindagannon7643]

So I'm 51, I've been using sunscreen everyday, for decades and only using water to clean my face and exfoliate with a wash cloth in the shower. Just recently I started thinking because I'm getting older I need to do what "mature" women do and get on a cleanser/anti aging product skin care routing even though I'm constantly getting told I do not look my age. Then I find this video and discover I'm doing it right after all! My instincts have always told me we didn't need much for the skin. I will say I have neglected my hands when it comes to sunscreen so I will do better in between washings. Just saved me a ton of money lol.

[@thehonestchannel]

Glad you found it helpful! I too need to start applying sunscreen to the back of my hands!

I wear SPF fingerless gloves, as reapplication of sunscreen to the hands is a mess, plus hand washing makes it harder to keep hands protected by sunscreen alone.

Same wih my Greek aunty, Her skin was divine even in her 80s. I haven't been too fussy either, until recently when everything has become a fad. Although always tried to use moisturisers without chemicals which brings me to the subject of sunscreens, don't most of them have yukky chemicals inside? I've just started with sunscreen and just turned 60. But told I look late 40s. In Asia we cant get tretinoin so I use a French brand A313. No irritation whatsoever. I think it's another kind of retinol which is much more gentle and doesn't make my skin sag like the harsh one from boots, No. 7.

Another very interesting interview!

[@allatamusic]

I am a man, and have had an interesting healing journey. Always with as natural an approach as I could find, healing causes and starting inside. That said, my skin has improved the most dramatically as I have healed my gut and blood-brain barrier with L-glutamine, as well as eliminating intake of processed sugar and processed foods in general. I have healed a lifelong autoimmune condition that I only discovered was just that about a year ago after watching a friend fully heal from lifelong eczema in about a year using this general protocol. Her skin went from being very abrasive in places to baby soft after that year. What I am trying to say is that we can do all we want to topically and lifestyle (exercising, avoiding smoking), but if we have any repair needed in the gut lining, it WILL show up on the skin. I am 55 now, gut healed and skin getting softer and tighter all the time! Hydration has helped, as well, and I also use a little creatine and find this also has had a big impact on my hydration and skin. I hope this helps over and above the information in the video, which was refreshing to hear! : )

@@rosamejia9295 Since it was the gut lining, L-Glutamine is THE thing I took, as it's main job is to build the stomach lining (my skin got softer on the outside, too!). While doing this, I also completely cut out processed sugars and foods for a few months. I have since eaten a bit, here and there, though I find I don't even want to any more. Hope this helps!

[@gabbys7719]

Sorry, I do not agree with her about the results of using tretinoin! I agree about the sunscreen but I have used Tretinoin at the strongest dose for 20 years, and I truly believe it has kept my skin in great condition. Always receive compliments on my skin even at my upward age🙂

I definitely think there's a percentage of the population for whom tretinoin works brilliantly long-term. I have no doubt about that. But it doesn't work so well for every skin type - some just can't tolerate it.

[@gabbys7719]

@The Honest Channel Yes there certainly are people who can't tolerate it but I believe she is saying that for those who can tolerate Retin A is not making a difference and that sunscreen is what works.

The person you’re recommending is really not my cup of tea. I find her personal attacks against people really distasteful and unprofessional.

I haven’t found a sunscreen that my facial skin will tolerate daily. Currently, Skin1004 Madagascar Centella Air-fit Suncream Light SPF 30 PA++++ and Vanicream Facial Moisturizer Broad Spectrum SPF 30 are the two I can successfully alternate. If I use a water resistant sunscreen, I have to use a cleanser to remove it. If I don’t, my skin starts having a rash. Also, after months of using nothing more than tap water on my face and watching my skin age quickly, I returned to using skincare products and watched my skin look healthier and less obviously wrinkled. My already sensitive skin became more sensitive using just water, too. Obviously, her method doesn’t work for me and may not for those of us with dry and/or sensitive skin.

My older friend used it on dark spots and skin tags and it worked great.I used it because retin A is supposed to build collagen.I use SPF now and especially when I go outside for longer periods. But as a younger woman I never went out without a makeup base I think that helped with future deep wrinkles.
