I know how you feel, my father also thinks it is a gimmick. But, the CeraVe lotion does help a lot with razor burn. For example, my uncle the other day came to me asking if I had hand sanitizer to put on his face because of razor burn. He said it would overpower the burn with more burn. I told him to never do that again and I took out the CeraVe Lotion and told him to apply it. Sure enough, it instantly relieved the burning and irritation.

[@LittleMonstr16]

I like how you pointed out that you spend more money on sunscreen than other products! I see others often recommending to spend less on the “basics” like cleanser, moisturizer, and spf because there are good inexpensive options, and while that is true, I think those are the products worth spending the most money on and time searching for them because they are the foundation of your skincare routine and are what do most of the heavy lifting when it comes to improving skin. I often also see the recommendation to “splurge” on serums which, again, makes no sense to me as those are the types of products that often have less research behind them. I think it’s more important to find basics that you enjoy using regularly and spending your money there than on pricey (and often gimmicky) serums.

[@DefinitelyNotAFerret]

Oof I splurge on my retinol and acids and I use a cheap sunscreen (but it’s also my favorite sunscreen) the A’Pieu sunscreen ❤️ it’s the closest dupe to the discontinued Dear Klairs Airy UV that I’ve used so far

[@justynawisniewska1213]

But there are great inexpensive options and they are right to an extent as the key to spf is buying one of which formula you like and the price point is not so high as to prevent you from using it in a liberal amount that is needed and reapplying. However you are also right, if you are willing to splurge on something spf is a great thing to choose.

[@andreavin3674]

haha I spend less on silly vanity products that never did it for me (masks, eye creams) buy cheaper simpler cleansers, then shifted that money towards my sunscreen.

When I worked at a beauty supply shop I never cared much for Dermalogica and surprisingly neither did aestheticians/dermatologists who would come in.

[@halirn]

As a certified wound care clinician, I don't think petrolatum is the best first line defense in minor skin abrasions/lacerations. The first sequence in wound healing is hemostasis. This is needed to stop the wound from bleeding and allow the wound to proceed through the next 3 phases of healing. If petrolatum is applied before hemostasis is achieved, this can slow down the healing process even in minor skin injuries. After hemostasis is complete, petrolatum can certainly help protect the skin. Additionally, people tend to double dip into their petrolatum containers which can lead to introducing bacteria into even the smallest of cuts.

Daily moisturizer when you need something lighter.

[@Violets14]

CeraVe has an oil free pm lotion - not sure about their other products. If I have clogged pores on a certain part of my face - I prefer to use glycolic pads at night and let it dry and leave it alone and just use an eye cream. Retinoids may help too at night. During the day - non comegenic/oil free serum and spf. I also like glycolic face washes. A benzoyl peroxide face wash works well for me when my skin gets more oily.

I am addicted to this product. It’s all I use for all over.

[@ninak8506]

Dr Dray, I love how you just quiet the noise around skin care. Suggesting a zinc shampoo when you have seborrheic dermatitis on your face - excellent! My son has it all under his beard. Ithink I'll get him to try it.

[@sweetreat30]

Which zinc shampoo has he had success with?

[@ninak8506]

@@sweetreat30 I'm not sure about my son. I use any shampoo that has 2% zinc. The other ingredients help itching etc.

[@sallydavidson4471]

My dermatologist told me that the 2nd largest contributor to contact dermatitis after nickel was neosporin! I am definitely allergic to neosporin. I had contracted Pink Eye about 20 years ago and the doctor had prescribed Neosporin eye drops since I could not take the usual sulfa based eye drops. After using the neosporin eye drops my eyes swelled very badly! My coworker's were calling me YODA! Stay away from Neosporin!!

[@robincarroll2826]

I’ve been using my CeraVe body cream in my face and neck for a while. So many good ingredients, which my face needs. It does feel a little heavier, but not too bad. 😊

[@scarlettsugar8159]

I'm not gonna lie...that Neosporin one just blew my mind!! I just purchased some not 2 hours ago for a wound on my foot. And I already had a brand new tub of Vaseline at home.

[@Violets14]

I only use Neosporin cream on a small area that I don't want too much oil or want to get it absorbed in - like if I have broken skin somewhere on my face or a paper cut or something. Save it for something that.

Chemical sunscreens use to burn my eyes but now I use nuetragena mineral sunscreen around my eyes and it doesn't burn

After Shaving I use the Lubiderm Mens 3-1. I rinse my face after Shaving and while the skin is still wet I apply the Lubriderm 3-1 Lotion. I was buying it at Walmart but my local Walmart stop carrying it but Amazon has it for about $8.99

[@jhedlich]

Thank you for the tip about using lip sunscreen around the eyes! My sunscreen has been forever burning my eyes and I just put up with it 😂 definitely going to try that out!

[@echase416]

Thank you for mentioning the lip sunscreen as a way to protect the eye area. My sensitive eyes (rosacea) burn and tear up, when I use sunscreen anywhere near my mid face/eyes. TY TY TY.

[@marianne6373]

Digression : But I also recommend using a leave on anti-dandruff product. Has saved my life (to be a bit dramatic) while trying not to wash out my hair color faster than necessary. There are fragrance free ones. Relives itch and actually help clean the scalp a bit, unlike dry shampoo.

[@marianne6373]

@@barbieblue3336 It's just why I bought them. But I would recommend them to people who don't too. The only one I use that I know is sort of available outside of the Nordic countries, if you order online, is from a brand called SIM Sensitive. It's a fantastic brand though. I also know that The Inkey list (a brand I personally don't like, but everyone else does) has a salisylic acid scalp serum. Philip Kingsley has one that should be available internationally that's almost fragrance free ?) as far as I can remember. With pircono lactone or however you spell it 😂But just look around the internet and local pharmacy/ drug store! Salisylic acid serums for the face, can also be used on the scalp in my experience.

[@stitchlightly5995]

Can we have a video of just different lip sunscreens please!

[@SymphonyTaylor]

I’ve been suffering from hyperpigmentation with my armpits and I recently switched over to a natural deodorant with essential oils…and that makes so much sense that using those can make it worse….☹️😭

[@helenavasic9989]

Dr drays rec sounds promising but I’d love to say try the ordinary glycolic toner! Since it’s an AHA it makes a fab deodorant and there is no smell when I use it! Glycolic acid is also brightening so I think it might help with hyperpigmentation! If you aren’t sensitive you can use it on face too and have a multi use product! Or I’ve seen people using this on legs and even as a scalp exfoliant! Obviously patch test before but I just put it in a spray bottle and it’s perfect! (I think imo might be more convenient than a body wash that dr dray recs since you can use it on the go!)

[@cutazabutton]

I work for a Dermatologist. We always say ”never use Neo(sporin).

[@heatherdavis104]

Appreciate your sound advice. I know you don’t advocate spray sunscreen because it doesn’t keep you from having to rub it in… but would still love you to do a video commenting on the J&J recall of 5 aerosol sunscreen products this week.

[@calilove6445]

Your skin is not the same all over your body. I would NEVER put my oily, thick body lotion all over my face. People need to learn more about ingredients and their skin's different needs. Skin on your foot or leg is not the same as your face. Horrible idea.

[@autumnjmo]

Dr. Dray, I feel like no one of influence does videos on Rodan & Fields. Is there a reason for this? Like are they protected somehow?

[@rosiellagrace]

I'd love to see anyone in the skincare world talk about some products that would help with facial shaving.. as a woman who had hormone issues as a teen and was told to shave to deal with it, now until I have the cash to laser or anything I kinda gotta resort to shaving every single mornin'. It'll still be prickly, just like a man's, by the evenin' but that once mornin' shave of the mustache and beard area is already enough to make that area sensitive and red with little bumps that are really difficult to hide under makeup. It's embarrassing enough, but the lack of talk about women havin' to shave and how it affects their skincare routine has always kinda irked me cause, it's a pretty common issue women have to deal with.

[@conniethehoarder]

Dang I thought Neosporin is “superior” to Vaseline

[@mochiinuo]

While I don't necessarily disagree on using body lotions in place of facial moisturizers, I recommend people to check what's in their body lotions and do test swatches before applying directly to their faces. This comes from personal experience where I ruined my skin by rubbing it on my face (not immediately, but it got much worse over time and I did not introduce new products to my skincare routine), and it took a few years for my skin to recover. Watch out for irritating ingredients like fragrance and make sure to not only test it on your body first, but also on your neck or to a less sensitive part of your facial skin before using regularly. It never hurts to be patient and careful

[@sheenaisaparasite.]

can you please recommend cruelty free effective retinols? ♥️

[@StinkyFacePal]

"Odiferous" is such a good word

[@mochi19971]

I use a moisturizer from CeraVe on my face, even though it is meant for body + face. I actually upgraded it to a face only product, because my body doesn't need much moisturizing! I use one from Neutrogena for the body

[@bibianagonzalez5633]

I like the idea of this instead of that! Thanks doc

[@bronzingwithbronson9269]

On a molecular level , depending on your skin type ...... Body products are heavier than most face products . Someone with dry skin could definitely use a body product on the face. Agreed .

Love this as I do all your videos. I’ve been using Strivectin SD for around 20 years given the hype and my skin for my age looks great. I would so love however to use a less expensive option but paranoid it will be like a final scene in the play Dorian Grey where I suddenly age by decades if I stop. Any suggestions? Thank you 🙏🏻

I just want to share my new HG facial sunscreen; very budget-friendly discovery - it's "Uriage Bariesun Fragrance Free Spray milk SPF 50+." 200ml bottle i paid around 13€ (i live in Europe). No alcohol denat. which i can't tolerate and no white cast. It is dewy but not like disgusting greasy. Soothes the skin and didn't clog my pores. 💜 Great vid Dr. Dray!

[@annmariebymorning]

I’ve never heard Dr Dray mention Biore UV SPF 50+ aqua rich watery essence. I have never seen it in a store , but you can get it on YesStyle and other sites like that for under 10$. It’s amazing! The texture is so light , it has no smell and it goes on under makeup beautifully. I get mine on eBay 5 bottles for 20$ 😀 Never used another sunscreen like it…no white cast either! Feels almost like a gel moisturizer.
