Yes, I agree with everything in this video. I’ve used the ceraVe oil cleanser which is fantastic for removing my sunscreen which I religiously use, thanks to you, on my 70 year old face. Love it! And double cleanse with ceraVe cream gentle cleanser. I don’t like make up remover as the foaming oil cleanser really does a great job. Don’t like the make up remover wipes at all. Thank you for your content, it’s really helped me care for my skin.

Thanks to you and Angie Hot and Flashy, I (55yo) now wear sunscreen every day, eat better, and use much healthier products. This cleanser is one of those - I love it! My skin doesn't feel dried out after I wash it anymore. I use it to wash my hands too. It's so much better than regular hand soap. If you ever wondered if your channel made a significant difference in someone's life, I'm here to tell you, oh HELL yeah! Have a wonderful week!😊

[@BEATRIKH]

Hello from Greece! I have been following you for years, doctor, and I appreciate the help you offer us. It is invaluable! I am 64 years old with skin that is now threatened by dryness and sensitivity, before I had normal skin with no problems. I use a moisturizing cleansing milk as the first step for my evening face cleansing and then I use Cetaphil gentle cleanser as a second cleanser. In the summer I usually use a gentle cleansing gel as a second cleanser. My face is now clean and remains hydrated. The methods work and I am happy. The truth is that I prefer sunscreens that are not waterproof, except in the summer when I make sure they have the indication "water-resistant", as well as in general I avoid using cosmetics that are advertised for long-term use or as waterproof. And, to tell you the truth, I do not use makeup, with exceptions.

[@tomasfelix33]

I first wipe off my makeup with Ponds Cold Cream using a dry tissue paper and no rinsing off with water. Then, I wet my face in the shower and double cleanse with Cerave Gentle Facial Cleanser. Nothing better than that!! I've tried other products; however, I always end up sticking up to these. 👍🏻🙌🏼

[@tomasfelix33]

Oops! Cetaphil not Cerave

[@tomasfelix33]

However a Cerave Gentle Cleanser should be a great option, too!

[@PatB415]

Dry tissue paper.....I'll have to try that! Thanks!

[@rosasumilepalermogofredo8333]

Yes a good classic Ponds Cold Cream is just always the best 😊

[@thanosfield2642]

I've personally tried the cerave hydrating oil foaming cleanser in a travel/small gift size package and it was a pleasant experience plus i did try the double wash method with this particular one (first the cerave oil and next the water based cleanser). In the end the double cleanse was nice and worked efficiently by removing the water resistant sunscreen from face and body 😊❤.

[@debbiepayne903]

My routine is neutrogena eye makeup remover on a pad. Press, not rub. Then a good swipe with micellar water. Then Clinique cleansing balm, rinse off and finally follow with a gentle face wash. I do use a clean white washcloth every night for the process and do it at the sink. Sounds complicated but doesn’t take that long and gets everything off, super clean!

[@sharontisherman7619]

La Roche Posay has a great oil to foam cleanser as well.❤

[@DebbiAnn2]

Yes it does and the one I have is suitable for face and body!🙂

[@UncleCharlie111x2]

Just got OCuSoft foaming eye lid cleanser been using almost a week and already noticing results! Eliminate eye irritation and keeps oil glands clean. ☕️👍🏻

[@standdownrobots_ihaveoldglory]

Oooh thanks for the tip! I have problem eyelids as of last winter & they drive me crazy. I use the ocu soft wipes when I’m having eyelid problems but a foaming cleanser would be great for removing makeup & hopefully help keep things stable. I’m pretty sure I’ve developed an ingredient allergy too but my mom has terrible problems with the same eye stuff so I assume it’s going to be a complex issue for the rest of my life lol…

[@DrDrayzday]

lid hygiene is so important!

[@journeylvr]

@@standdownrobots_ihaveoldglory I’ve I suffer from chronic Chalazions on my eyelids. I’ve had to have 2 surgically removed in the past. I’ve switched from using OcuSoft Cleansing Wipes to using the Ocu Soft Hypochlorous spray The wipes dried out the skin under my eyes. I’ve become diligent in using hot compresses and cleaning my eyelids everyday. And stay away from oil cleanser around the eyes!!

[@Hemmyii]

The wipe version is too rough and irritating to me. My brother swears by the foam for his chronic eye irritation

[@RazorbackNation75]

The timing is perfect. I have subclinical seb derm. I have stopped oil cleansing and it’s made a big difference. I use Avene’s Extremely Gentle Face Lotion twice and it’s enough for me to get my sunscreen off. Aveeno’s oat gel cleanser worked twice as well. I do want to try Kiehl’s sensitive face wash in the future.

I’ve been using this cleanser as my hand wash. It really helped control my eczema. Xx

[@southerngirl773]

I wear heavy eye makeup daily. Including waterproof mascara. I use eye makeup remover before double cleanser. The trick is applying the eye remover on a cosmetic pad and press and hold with eyes closed. Works great and sink does not clog.

[@johncheffy4775]

I'm currently enjoying Cerave Foaming oil cleanser . I don't need to double cleanse in winter as I don't wear wr spf , I rarely wear light make up . Great no fuss cleanser and I find it's gentle and cleanse well . 😊

[@dudswoo]

As the weather gets colder, my skin gets dry and sensitive. At night, I use a small dab of petroleum jelly to remove my eye makeup and then wash my face with a Dead Sea mud bar soap. In the morning, I use Tatcha The Rice Polish Calming. The petroleum jelly works best if I wet my eye area first.

[@aldocat1707]

I definitely use a double cleanse routine. My old standby for the 1st cleanse is Albolene.

[@meggieprice]

I love that Oil to foam cleanser! 💜💜💜

[@DrDrayzday]

It's so good!

[@ryenngaebler4286]

Talk about timing! I use the LR Posay oil cleanser, and last night I decided to try it as a double cleanse. Worked great!

[@WiseFamin]

Thanks for this! I use makeup wipes as my first step when I'm wearing lots of eye makeup, because it's easier to fold the wipe around my lashes and swipe off. I follow it with a foaming cleanser. If I'm not wearing mascara, I might just use a micellar water as my first step (followed by foaming cleanser). These approaches both work for me. I used to use the Hada Labo oil cleanser for my first step, and I agree it's more pleasurable to apply, but it's a mess to wash off in the sink (much easier if you're in the shower!). So, the micellar water works best for me, since it's a bit less messy. Thanks for going into all the nitty gritty! Good to know that using the same cleanser twice has some effect, which can be helpful during travel or when you've run out!

[@marylawman8603]

I love the Cerave oil cleanser but never tried it for my first cleanse. I either use Albolene or an oil cleanser as my first cleanse and the Cerave for the second. This method works great for me. Nice to know that you can actually use it for both the first and second cleanse! Thanks, Dr Dray. Happy Tuesday! I hope you have a blessed evening. 💚

[@lalablotz7348]

I double cleanse with Prequel’s Gleanser and it works perfectly.

[@strawberryx257]

Coconut oil is fantastic at breaking down all makeup & 2nd cleanse with CeraVe cleansing foam is fantastic for my older skin. Definitely seen an improvement with my lashes after this approach.

[@donnaleeraines3309]

I swear by the elf balm cleanser. Then I use the LaRoche Posay toleraine cream cleanser. I now use a gentle cloth to remove the balm after i emulsify it well. Until I used the cloth some make up or sunscreen would show on my white microfiber towel which I use to gently pat off some of the water. I don’t dry my skin so much but I don’t like putting my products on too wet skin. I worried forever that the cloth was aging my skin. But feeling there was still product residue on my face bothered me more. When my face feels sensitive I don’t pat dry and just use the cicaplast baume cream. So soothing.

[@rebecca3745]

I still use neutrogena unscented body oil for the first step, neutrogena hydro boost gel cleanser for second. It’s the only one that doesn’t sting my eyes. Works great and economical.

[@Hemmyii]

I’m using the new target up and up version of the neutrogena oil. I haven’t done the math to know if it’s a lot cheaper but it’s very nice.

[@sandypolsky5683]

I found out just how much a single wash of my face while wearing tinted sunscreen and a bit of makeup isn't enough, because when I patted dry my face with a towel, the tinted sunscreen/makeup was on my towel. I double cleanse now with a gentle balm and then with my CeraVe Hydrating Cleaner for my dry skin.

[@ixchel231]

My favorite combo for double cleansing is using: Stratia's velvet milky cleanser Vanicream's facial cleanser I don't use makeup, or water resistant sunscreens. The oil component in Stratia's cleanser is just enough to help me use it as a first cleanser.

[@heatherireland2810]

Elf cleansing balm is just great and affordable. It does wonders on eye makeup and mascara as a first cleanse.

[@LCL1979]

I use Cerave healing ointment when I travel as oil cleanser, lip balm, nighttime hand cream, flyaway hair tamer, etc. That or Vaseline or Aquaphor - whichever is easiest to find in TSA approved sizes. Seriously, a small tube of ointment and a dove beauty bar can cover so many products.

[@Kimmb1968]

I like Dove. Years ago seeing Derms in the 80’s and 90’s was my Derms always recommended to use Dove on my face while using Retin A. It was basically the only thing around. Besides Noxema. It’s still around and I still use it in the winter months on face and body. The sensitive skin perfume free bar. So odd no one talks about Dove bar for the face anymore.

[@LCL1979]

@ I’ve used either the original or sensitive bars for years and years (::cough::decades::cough::). Basically, whatever’s at Costco. I’ve gotten many compliments on my skin over the years. Genetics, Dove, and benign neglect go a long way. Honestly, more people should give it a try for both face and body.

[@lilyt_art]

This cerave one is the one I use for my double cleanse! The Avene lipid replenishing oil cleanser has very similar effects. I think of these two as hybrid cleansers, oil based but emulsifies and washes off without residue. Works perfectly well as a double cleanse with a single product

[@SusanHurst-h4b]

I don't wear heavy makeup. Just Ilia tinted sunscreen. I ise coconut oil first to disolve, then cerave to cleanse. Seems to work well for my dry, mature skin

[@catherinelynnfraser2001]

I double cleanse in the morning with an oil. I massage my face and concentrate on the areas where I tend to get drier patches, around the mouth, areas where I tend to get sebaceous filaments or if I have ingrown hairs. It seems to help smooth and depuff my skin and face. I follow up with a gentle foaming cleanser. I use a mascara remover sometimes in the evening. Some mascaras are tough to remove. If it doesn’t come off with the cleansing oil and a gentle massage, I use a bi-phase eye makeup remover and “soak” my eyes. I then use a gentle foaming cleanser.

[@Rachel_AllThingsFoster]

Ponds is really magical- I totally agree!! 😊

[@AnastaciaBurns]

I always take my eye makeup off with eye makeup remover first. Up and Up from Target is the best. I also use the Fragrance Free Up and Up makeup remover wipes, THESE ARE PHENOMENAL! I have to use an oil based cleaner for the rest of my makeup. I then use the Cerve cleanser in the shower. If I don’t use an oil based cleanser to remove my makeup first my sunscreen will literally not come off!

[@Claudialupperocd]

Clinique Take the Day Off balm is my first step. Then I was using Kojic Acid Soap, but about a month ago switched to Zote. My skin has never looked better. Zote has a short list of ingredients and does not make me itch, unlike moisturizing "normal" soaps. I doubt any doctor would ever recommend Zote, but it works so well on my skin. I don't have itchy legs anymore. This is major since my legs have itched every night for the past 15 years. My skin looks glassy and is not dry or greasy. Anyway, the CeraVe Oil cleanser sounds wonderful, but Zote is magical for me. I don't wear a lot of makeup but I do have loads of sunscreen on, so that has to come off. And lipstick, which needs to come off, too.

[@michellequiroz5899]

It is literally one of the best soaps.

[@PatB415]

Wow, just know that Zote is a pH 11. Skin is 5.5.

[@lynnkaplan3098]

The Cerave cream to foam works well for me as a double cleanse. I will use more product with a little water if I need to, and if makeup is heavy I tissue it off or use a wet washcloth. Second time is normal, rinse, pat dry. It is hydrating and really dissolves makeup.

[@JackieFiest]

Been using this cleanser since you first recommended, and still love it!

[@sarahwells4735]

I have actually tried this with this exact cleanser and it worked well! I initially bought it thinking it was meant for a first step oil cleanse and then realized I was wrong but it works for me.

[@margieryne6220]

I use Clinique to double cleanse when I do it but I don’t always have to. A great video! ❤️

[@DrDrayzday]

i love their cleansing balm

[@conniekershaw4412]

I use Clinique's take the day off cleansing balm. It works well on their City Block sunscreen, SPF 50. That sunscreen is the only one I found that I can drive for 9 hours in the car (road trip) and not getting sunburn without reapplying. I also use their take day off lip, lash and lid eye make up remover on the few times I use eye and lip makeup. I used to use Cera Ve hydrating cleanser but now I've gone back to the Clinique bar soap. I'm trying to be more environmentally conscious. It also works great for travel!

[@margieryne6220]

@ that’s what I use & it works great!🥰

[@NYCWoman]

I just started using this Cerave cleanser and I really like it! What do you think of the Elizabeth Arden products? I have some of the capsules from that line.

[@Bel-w3v]

Moisturiser removes makeup well. Cera Ve foaming cleanser is a bit too harsh for me. However, if used on pimples, it works well to speed up the healing process.

[@shirleydilleshaw5289]

I can’t use miscelllar water. I tend to get rosacea and it always gets on my cheeks and gets irritated. I prefer neutropenia dupe of the eye makeup remover. I love the cerave cleanser, per your recommendation. It burns my eyes though. I’m going to try the lipstick, I never can find one that lasts. Thank you 😊

[@MountainPearls]

Tried the Cerave Hydrating Cleanser twice to “double cleanse.” Didn’t work and *really* wouldn’t work with a lot of make up. I imagine Cetaphil or similar wouldn’t either (they are very similar). I love The Inky List Oatmeal Balm…but HATE the packaging…it’s frustrating enough to go back to Good Molecules Balm once it’s gone. Someone with arthritis or other disabilities may not be able to get it out. Anyhow, both balms work well (along with snail mucin serum and moisturizer) as I’ve started Retinols then moved to Retinals (low and slow). Not much irritating using them in conjunction. Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream (in the tub) is helpful too (for dryness)…as is face basting occasionally. Using glycolic acid is key too. So far I’ve only had a little bit of purging and dryer skin…but not flakey or very dry. I plan to start Tret. in the spring (when my derm. appt is).

[@susanmcf1]

I tried CeraVe Hydrating Foaming Oil Cleanser and found it was too drying for my skin and I went back to Paula's Choice Perfect Cleansing Oil.

[@sonjafountain9878]

I like the makeup eraser cloths....they take away a lot of sunscreen and eye makeup and they are gentle...and them follow up with a hydrating cleanser

[@helindove2237]

Hi. Do you mean reusable microfiber, no product, make-up remover pads like Face Halo? Do you know Dr Dray ever did a review or response video about these kind of make-up eraser cloths?

[@Yougaljuboja]

I've been double cleansing for 1 week with this exact cleanser ^^ Can't wait to hear your thoughts !

[@anaj7306]

Try Avene Tolerance Extremely Gentle Cleanser. I dind CeraVe too stripping for my dry skin, but Avene works for both steps of the double cleanse. It's also amazing at removing eye makeup.

[@maryannrodriguez9766]

How about using a wash cloth? Thank you always for your informative videos

[@SandiTink]

I can’t use the CeraVe oil to foam cleanser, but I can and do use the La Roche-Posay (LRP) version of it. A single cleanse with it (applying dry, emulsifying, removing gently with a washcloth, then rinsing) removes light makeup and a single application of water resistant sunscreen for me. I need more with moderate makeup or water resistant sunscreen. That takes a second wash with the cleanser (applied on wet skin). Multiple applications of water resistant sunscreen or heavy makeup requires an oil or balm for my dry skin, which likes to hold onto makeup, followed by a cleanser. If mascara, eyeliner, or lipstick refuse to budge, I remove them with a little micellar water. I also use the Cetaphil cleanser for normal to dry skin. My skin doesn’t get clean at night using it for a single cleanse when I have on makeup. Without makeup, it works fine, as you’d expect. I use the cleanser for morning or when I can’t get out of bed. Being able to use it without a sink is a boon for me.

[@floweringevergreen3584]

I used to use Neutrogena's Body Oil as the first step in a double cleanse until CeraVe's Hydrating Foaming Oil Cleanser. Now I regularly us 3 different CeraVe cleansers: Hydrating Facial Cleanser for my few no sunscreen days; Hydrating Cream-to-Foam Cleanser for sunscreen days; and, Hydrating Foaming Oil Cleanser for waterproof sunscreen days.

The CeraVe Oil to Foam Cleanser is no joke! I have VERY sensitive skin, and let me tell you, this cleanser allows me to use retinol much easier by reducing my flaking and peeling like a dream! Even after micro-needling it is a god-sent and it takes off my sweat-proof, water-proof MINERAL sunscreen everyday! It has really opened up my options and allowed me to incorporate some actives in my routine which led to better skin overall. If you have sensitive skin and nothing seems to be working try changing your cleanser to this one or similar it may transform the way your skin is prepped for your other products to work with less irritation, it is a great foundation on the road to keeping your skin barrier in tact, hope it works out for you too!

[@violets-for-roses]

@@DrDrayzday I was sceptical at first because I hate having a residue after using oil-based products. I love it now. 🥳

[@violets-for-roses]

@@GS-cf7pw It depends on what I'm doing during the day and wearing. If I wear sunscreen and makeup I usually combine it with a micellar water or a remover for waterproof mascara (bi-phase removers, oil cleanser or regular mineral oil). I wash my face with the Cerave cleanser before moisturizing. I really recommend a separate cleanser if you use waterproof makeup and sunscreen. In general I don't like wearing stuff like foundation and I like reapplying creams during the day. The UV-index is close to 0 these days, so I don't use as much sunscreen. This affects my cleansing habits with the cold and dry climate. 😅

[@terrirojas]

I've tried the Foaming Oil Cleanser and it was meh for me. I have had great success double cleansing with just CeraVe's Cream to Foam Cleanser. I first apply it in cream form on dry skin and massage it all over and into my eyelashes (I wear waterproof). Then I emulsify it with water, massage, and rinse. For the second cleanse, I foam it up in my hands and apply it on my wet skin, massage, and rinse. Done. I too wash my face in the shower because I hate the mess it makes at the sink and down my neck and arms.

[@sandra37cooks]

I'd rather use an oil or balm, but both trigger my types 1 and 4 rosacea. I use Bioderma Sensibio Micellar Water as a first cleanse, then a cleanser. I alternate between a few favorites like Isntree Yam Root Cleanser and Prequel Gleanser to name two

[@nausikaaleukolenos]

What I do for mascara is, I splash my face several times with warm water and let the mascara loosen up while I brush my teeth, then I massage (gently!!!) my lashes to remove it. Any residue on my lids comes off completely as I wash my face with a regular cleanser. But I have to say, my sunscreen is not waterproof, and I don't use foundation or concealer. This method works with all the mascaras I use (including the Lash Sensational many people have problem with!). If a mascara doesn't comes off this way, I don't use it lol.

[@paulahatch9955]

Happy Tuesday Dr Dray…see you tomorrow x💙🤩🎄

[@graitab.4945]

Ciao Dr. Dray, I have been following for years and I guess I was still at the mineral oil for the first step. I am using Johnson Baby Oil and then a facial cleanser for the second one. Maybe I should upgrade the first step with a face oil or a balm.

[@sulakaricats]

I do the same as Dr Dray The Ordinary Squalene Cleanser to remove tinted mineral sunscreen and light makeup then in the shower and wash with my QV Face Gentle Cleanser, this has been my routine for about 4 years same products every night, this was my dermatologist advise as well and I too have noticed my lashes are longer and lusher. My skin is sensitive reactive and hates a lot of products. I really enjoy the balm to oil massage step of the Squalene Cleanser as well.

[@ispyamoose]

I have an oily t-zone, and I'm the summer I'm oily all over my face. I double cleanse with the same product 2-3 times a week since the only makeup I regularly wear is on my eyebrows. The rest of the time I cleanse once, with a hydrating gentle cleanser because I'm prone to dehydrated skin.

[@slanden99]

Oil cleansers irritate my eyes so I have been using Bioderma sensitive skin micellar water on a cotton pad to gently remove eye makeup. Works well and no irritation. I also like how I can remove the sunscreen from my neck and chest with the micellar water without making a mess at the sink.

[@anitapereira9864]

I used this Cerave cleanser for a month but it broke me out and gave me milia. My skin just doesn’t like oil based products. I have never been able to use oil cleansing balms or oils. I thought because this was a light oil based product it would be ok. I now use IS Clinical Cleansing Complex as my first cleanser which is a serum based cleanser. It removes my eye makeup and is so gentle on my lashes too. No breakouts or milia. I have normal to dry skin.

[@emmadowney602]

I am an adamant "just use the same cleanser twice" girl! I tried all sorts of cleansing oils recommended from every skincare influencer under the sun during the pandemic, and I would always just feel greasy and break out after double cleansing with a cleansing oil/balm. Finally, I gave up having a tik tok perfect skincare routine and my skin likes it much better. I just use the Vanicream gentle cleanser twice, and that has been a game changer for me!!!! I found the trick was striking the balance between a really gentle cleanser and a harsher cleanser i.e. the cetaphil cleansers are too gentle to double cleanse with, but a salicylic acid cleanser is probably going to be too harsh.

Every night, I remove my eye make-up with those good old-fashioned oily pads. I've been using them since the 60s. A few years ago, I tried a couple of brands of "oil free" eye make-up remover but I found them highly irritating. Same with the big wipes. And there was a brief ineffective segue to Pond's. So back to the oily pads. I then bend over the tub near the faucet -- I have been doing this all my make-up life -- and apply Cetaphil to a dry face, rub it in, let it sit for a minute and then rinse, rinse, rinse. That's why I'm bent over the tub because I rinse my face with a minimum of 20 double handfuls of water, 30 is even better. Does it remove all the oily residue? No. But i put on my Retin-A .05% on top anyway!

Yep! We striked it! 🎳 🎯 I use the Ceraphil one; however, I dare guess that Cerave is as good for a double cleansing, too. The secret is using the Ponds Cold Cream Cleanser 1st!!! Oldie but goodie!!! The best!!! 👍🏻 I stopped searching a long time ago. 😂

[@tomasfelix33]

The Ponds Cold Cream Cleanser is getting expensive at Walgreens; so, I switched to buying it at a Burlington store in my hometown. I always like to grab a deal! 😂 Many other great products can be found there, too. 👍🏻

Top quality video with this one!

Any recommendations on skin care routine for people with beards who also have dry skin? I’m a big fan of CeraVe products.

The best way to get off eye makeup is with Neutrogena's Oil Free eye makeup remover. It's in a 5.5 Oz light blue plastic bottle. I shake it up and then soak a Q-Tip in the solution and run it along my eyelashes. If you're wearing a lot of eye makeup, use a cotton round instead. This removes even waterproof mascara. Then rinse it off and continue with your regular cleanser.

The Lancome bi-facil one is popular as well for removing eye makeup.

[@PatriciaCook-p1j]

I wish it worked like that for me… nothing but burning and red soon around my eye area. I can’t figure out what ingredient is the culprit. Neutragena and Oil of Olay hate my skin 😢

[@JollyRogerJo]

That cleanser is great. I use ti also to wash my makeup sponges. The only thing is that I hate the smell 😂

Since I don’t use makeup, only water resistant sunscreen, bioderma sensibio micellar water has been enough for me to remove the sunscreen. I use a microfiber cloth, they are more gentle than cotton balls.

I have a cleansing oil and a gentle cream cleanser to double cleanse. It dries my skin out so badly! I have actually started only washing once, with the oil. Don't know if this is a bad idea, but it isn't drying me out as badly.

[@leeandra3946]

I feel like my skin hates double cleansing. It seems to be too drying. I have very dry, sensitive, eczema, and acne prone skin. It doesn’t matter if I use a cream cleanser, oil cleanser, or balm. I’ve been enjoying the Curology Gentle Cleanser though!👌🏼

I do this with cleansing balm and then liquid oil cleanser all the time. the best side effect of this method is that i don't get the same kind of leftover residue under/behind my ears. these rinse off smoothly. for some reason, any kind of creamy / milk cleanser + my town's hard water = an intractable residue that i can rub off after shower when i'm dry but will not rinse / scrub off in the shower. so annoying so i love double cleanse oil method. PLUS i had mold toxicity from my former home, causing rosacea and hashimoto's and flaring my MCAS (mast cell activation disease), among other things. so i have developed a sensitivity to water. oil cleansers are so great because they provide a barrier protection against water on my delicate facial and neck skin. so i'm not red anymore (unless i eat something allergic!) - i now use this cerave cleanser (or bioderma or LRP) for my body cleanser too. no chance for sticky buildup with my hard water. another great one that i can always use is cerave SA foaming soap. keeps pimples away, rinses cleanly, but keeps your skin super soft!!

I make my own oil cleanser after discovering that cheap ol’ mineral oil seems to be the key ingredient & I think it really boosts emulsification. As a kid I did a lot of experimenting in the tub with baby oil + various soaps until my mom figured out that’s where the ring of gunk was coming from lol. But she wouldn’t get me fun body washes etc so I tried to make my own! Mineral oil is a great emulsifier but the prices of oil cleansing balms do not match the ingredients or level of difficulty. We do realize we’re price gouging ourselves right? I use different foaming & creamy 2nd cleansers, I like mixing fancy minis with basic unscented cleansers, but in a pinch the fulvic acid inkey list cleansers does a great job gently removing everything on your face…

[@southerngirl773]

Never rub eyes aggressively when removing eye makeup. My mother taught me that 30 years ago. So glad she did!

[@GS-cf7pw]

I am confused...if I use Cerave products which one should I use first and second?thanks ❤

[@liss441]

I love the bioderma sensibility micellar cleansing oil too

[@Brian_0523]

I wash twice with the same gel cleanser every night. Never had an issue doing so. But I’m only removing sunscreen and not a face of makeup

[@johncheffy4775]

The cleanser does say use on damp skin and I find it removes spf in a single cleanse on damp skin . 😊

[@a3azgh]

I don't have pimples but i ve clogged comedones i tried multiple times to clean , my face looks amazing and shiny clean for 3 days or4 and then blackheads and white appear specially and the nose little bit on forhead and specially cheeks ( zygomatic zone ) should i use it , what routine would you recommand

[@spencerchidley1060]

dr, would you consider reviewing the new azelaic acid serum from regimen lab? looks really interesting!

[@Lavenderhy]

I’ve been using jojoba oil for a year and i really enjoy it

[@Lillybell-g4s]

I watched your videos about rosacea… you recommend Vanicream. Vanicream did nothing to help in anyway. I have finally found a moisturizer from Nubian heritage.. goat milk and chai and goat milk soap. Nubian heritage is great for my body and face. On face I bought the CeraVe pm over the Nubian heritage to lock in the moisture.

[@saimamalik7272]

Hi doc!!! Happy Tuesday ❤ People say on TikTok add pinch of salt in water to hydrate yourself in right way it is right or not?? Thanks for your reply

[@DrDrayzday]

that isnt necessary

[@ldtoner]

Ponds used to make a wonderful cleansing balm. I loved it, but of course, they stopped making it!😩

[@claudiasmith9117]

Good morning Dr Dray ❤

[@rachellelewis9389]

I use Vaseline to remove my eye makeup. A few swipes on my eyes and then when I wash my face everything comes off my eyes. And I use waterproof tubing mascara.

[@DebbieSawyer-e8m]

I love Cetaphil gentle cleanser and have used it for years 8:28 . I am currently using the CeraVe oil cleanser first cleanse but it is clogging my sink drain and I didn’t have this problem before using it so I’m going to have to start using something different.

[@itscarolinemary]

I usually wash my face twice if I feel I need it. I don't use a washcloth, just my hands. I don't think I'd wash twice with a wash cloth tho! I also don't wear much makeup so I have yet to use an oil cleanser. I should get one if I ever do wear a lot of makeup.
