The difference between a doctor’s review of a product and a beauty gurus review of a product is night and day I appreciate the information.

[@Sana-gq9ow]

Lol yes.

[@ladydeanna3775]

Because a doctor can afford it a beauty guru majority of the time depends on likes and views for a paycheck.

[@alicecgong]

She did recommend the firming mask, and sorta recommended the soft cream (if it didn’t have fragrance) :p but she didn’t / : I would’ve loved it if she review the concentrate which is supposedly the most concentrated potent product for their seaweed extract :/

[@SB_41]

When I was living in Chicago, my aesthetician used to work at the Four Seasons on Michigan Ave. The clientele could easily afford to use all La Mer skincare. So I asked her, "Does La Mer REALLY provide noticable changes in the skin." Without hesitation, she said "no." There was no noticable difference between her clients that used La Mer versus other skincare lines. 🖤🖤 Love the channel!!!

[@patr70]

She seem to have a pretty "flippant" and biased answer.

[@20thcenturyrelic]

Sadly, La Mer cream is an expensive ripoff.

[@FaadumoArdo]

​@@20thcenturyrelic true i swear i always check that products and then turn away beacuse of that price

[@Anick8]

Whats the most life changing thing Dr Dray taught you guys? Thanks to her I discovered that fragrance has been the one thing that has made me all red and irritated in the past. I tried EVERY “calming” product and when I switched to fragrance free my problem disappeared. I wish I could give her a big hug cause it’s amazing how can someone change the life of a person miles away with just being who she is. Thank you Dr Dray and big hug from Mexico

@@DrDrayzday Thanks for educating us.

[@ericachavez3949]

Yesss!! I’ve been waiting for this video! I’m so happy I didn’t waste my money and just bought Paula’s Choice. You have opened my eyes. Thank you so much Dr. Dray, you really are making a difference in thousands of people’s lives and saving them from wasting their money and developing problems in the future on these unnecessary expensive products. I hate to think that people are literally paying thousands for skin problems. Thank you so much 🙏

[@20thcenturyrelic]

It's so sad that people have no idea how harmful fragrance, SD alcohol, and witch hazel are in skin care and makeup. I'm also a long term Paula's Choice product, and I've been satisfied with most of the products. There have been a couple that didn't work well for me, but that's just how it is. Very few things work for everybody. I use a few non Paula's Choice products, specifically Aquaphor, Vanicream, and the fragrance free version of Neutrogena Norwegian Formula hand cream.

[@kellykeiter8682]

I have to say...I love my La Mer. My skin has never felt better. I tried this brand in my early 30's..hated it! Tried it again in my 40's and it was a game changer! I think this line is great for mature skin. I use their moisturizer, soft cream under foundation and eye creme and the sunscreen SPF 50 is great! I have irish-german skin, live in the south and I have not burned or gotten pink with it on. The line works for me...

[@Paddrique]

No one says it doesn’t work, people say it’s not even close to be worth it.

[@Pheediep]

Why did you try it again if you hated it the first time?

[@ann5765]

I love it too. I also have Irish skin. It’s a gamechanger for me as well.

[@tracey0820]

I wonder if this is what’s going on with me.. I just bought a whole lot of la mer out of curiosity and I’m 27 and a bit disappointed… are you still using it?

[@Taylor-oq3gf]

Paying this much for skincare is crazy, especially when la mer is has fragrance in it and really isn’t good for sensitive skin

[@bzleo2003]

I'm just going to wear a seaweed mask all day. Like straight up put layers of seaweed on and walk around. I will be swamp thing.

[@lillianchiu1301]

Hooray Dr. Dray! You make us smarter skin product consumers everyday.

[@LisaMonique]

Gosh, I've just been using for a month, just to see what I thought of the hype and I didn't want to like it....but I do!! For my 53 year old skin, I really noticed a reduction in pores and smoother skin. I stopped using everything except my Retin A and hydroquinone, no other serums or additional skin care, and I unfortunately now need to buy another jar of the creme de la mer ( I had just bought a 30 ml jar, used about 2/3 in the month) because my skin looks fabulous!....now the $400 eye cream didn't do anything better than other eye creams, but the creme de la mer...I'm sold....darn it!

[@ellina9816]

Because it has silicone

[@leannetaylor3474]

I love it too. My skin is glowing. Im not a fan of the eye cream.

[@radiantbritt]

Super happy for this video! There is just no way I would ever spend money on La Mer, there are thousands of better cheaper options out there. If you’re spending $300+ on a face cream just put that towards some Botox or Retin A!

[@mstyles2667]

Botox? I would rather shell out $1000 for a jar of cream than put a neurotoxin in my face. More like jab my skull that protects my brain with a neurotoxin. There is NO long term studies on Botox, just wait another 10 years and they will find it's just as deadly as breast implants.

[@DrDrayzday]

botox has been used in medicine since 1989

[@radiantbritt]

Dr Dray thank you!

[@Anne-oq4wz]

Breast implants are not deadly and either is Botox.

[@radiantbritt]

Anne Hurwitz yes! Thank you.

[@juliabinford6500]

Great info! I used Estee Lauder for years. Got trapped into believing good skincare had to cost a fortune. I started listening to you about 4 months ago. I took your advice and switched to Cerave, started Tretanoin, used sunscreen daily, and ditched all fragrance. My skin is better than it's ever been. Turns out the expensive skincare must have been inflammatory, just like you said, because within 2 weeks of stopping it all, redness and bumps went away. I can't thank you enough.

[@MsAmalia07]

Julia Binford yes!! I use some mid- price products from the medispa I go to- also The Ordinary. Many great and affordable products. Lastly, Whole Foods has many great skincare products that are natural and not inflammatory. I received a. sample of Orchidee by Guerlain- nothing but fragrance. Nothing special- except the price $475 Canadian. What a joke!!!

[@ladydeanna3775]

I hate Estée Lauder skin products I used to buy them but the cream seeps into my eyes to the point where my vision is blurry. I only buy the perfumes. I don’t like the foundation either.

[@20thcenturyrelic]

I was fortunate enough to learn about 30 years ago how harmful fragrance is in skin care and makeup, and stopped using fragranced products on my face. I also use unscented products on my body, with the exception of shampoo and conditioner. I'm using up the fragranced shampoo and conditioner that I have and will transition to unscented when they're used up. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find a satisfactory unscented mousse and hair spray. I'm using a hair spray labeled unscented, but it isn't.

Izziebiz , exactly ... Dermatologist are no different than any other Doctor, some are knowledgeable and others aren't..

[@roychefets6961]

La Mer has been known to be a hustle for decades. Their whole marketing strategy is to make their products outrageously expensive so suckers will think they're worth the money. Ester Lauder management is extremely savvy. They bought La Met because they recognize a high profit business when they see them. You might as well buy Pond's and donate the rest to charity. By the way perfumes (fragrances) cost very little to produce. Maybe $10-15 a bottle, or less, for high end designer brands. The costs are all in marketing and PR.

[@trinhtran973]

Oh really? How do you knoww?🙄

[@bloodmajesty414]

@@trinhtran973 if you look around on youtube on some DIY perfume/scented candle making you will see. Making fragrance is really cheap, because the base ingredients are really cheap. Often packaging cost more than the product itself.

[@monlkonli5943]

@@bloodmajesty414 still, most (not all) designer or more expensive perfumes perform way way better than cheaper perfumes. But never in my life will I be caught paying above $40 for a cream or anything face related lmao

[@CottonTollyxoxo]

Estee Lauder actually changed the original formulas of Le Mer in major way. My mother used to love it until they sold to Estee. They cut out a lot of the good ingredients and added not so good, cheaper ones.

Please don’t cross the picket line

[@mandicsa]

Whether la mer is a 'scam' or not...absolutely nothing looks/feels/makes my skin as healthy as the la mer matte lotion. I've listened to my own dermatologists (which also believe it's a scam and recommend brands like cerave) and have spent even more money on other products to replace the la mer matte lotion but absolutely nothing compared. No other cream moisturised and also kept oil at bay all day and this is the only cream that: - reduced my cystic acne - stopped new pimples for forming (not one pimple for 2 years) - felt completely invisible on the skin - was perfect under make up Scam or not, it worked for me. Listen yo your skin, it'll tell you what it needs - be it cerave or la mer. And my skin is screaming 'take my money and do not try another cream'

[@wilterfilho]

same

[@aprilspring2474]

Yes! Not everyone can afford la mer :(

[@green1eyed1leopardes]

I would too!

[@mslaurateague]

Masha Axe The Ordinary has a nice Marine (vegan) Hyaluronics serum!

[@brigitteliu9915]

Can everyone just listen to these “why fragrance should be avoided” ? This is so good!

[@AmissCircle]

Happy Monday! Also happy you finally reviewed this brand! It’s so expensive and so much of it has fragrance.

[@DrDrayzday]

Happy Monday!

[@teamginger6359]

I can always count on Dr Dray to bring the info in a straightforward & honest way. Thank you, thank you. 💖

[@makeupgame2strong873]

Congratulations on over 400,000 subscribers, well deserved! Thanks to you I have cured my severe eczema by preventing transepidermal water loss, using products like Eucerin body wash + lotion, and staying away from products that overall strip my skin of its natural moisture! ❤️

[@probablyaman]

05:26 Seaweed is pretty smart. It wears its own sunscreen. - I'm sure seaweed watches Dr.Dray's videos...

[@concisekrevin3802]

lol

[@aprilblossoms4]

Of course it does! 😂

[@deborahbertolino9314]

The best review on LaMer I have ever seen! I have been trying to break away from the soft cream, I have been using it for about two years and I cannot stand paying the price but my skin looks so damn good! However the fragrance information will definitely get me to try something else now.

[@nancym.838]

Just discovered these videos by Dr. Dray and I can't get enough of them. It's like spending all day talking with an experienced Dermatologist. Very informative and learning a lot. I say this having spent time with some of the best Detmatologists in the world at UCSF where I go to keep my Rosacea under control. Great job!

[@sharischmidt4712]

Oh dear!! I went down the La Mer rabbit hole once when l had too much time on my hands in the Zurich airport. I spent way too many euros on a product that I had no real intention on buying but was curious and thought why not? Needless to say I never repurchased any of the products, their ghastly expensive and I didn't really see any pronounced benefits any more than I did with the products that I normally use at a third of the cost. Happy Monday 🙂🍁

[@varenvaren3483]

I think your description of how the skincare industry works was spot on. Keep up the good work and love your videos :-)

[@mgcoulter1877]

I never expected her to make this video!🤣

[@ryanchow8679]

true 😂😂

[@tangomango5360]

Right ??!!!!?! 😂 But do appreciate it !!

[@DrDrayzday]

Happy Monday!

[@mare.vitalis]

she definitely took one for the dray team on these lol

[@calliefreeman7937]

Girl, yes. I have been waiting for this. Can you recommend dupes for the Creme de la Mer Moisturizer?

[@yvetteshelton534]

Happy Monday Dr. Dray! Would you do an Amazon skincare video? Thank you for reiterating that LaMer is overrated and not worth the hype. Thanks!

[@DrDrayzday]

[@friermama]

Because why stop at a $250.00 firming mask?!?!? Bwahahahahahahahahaha!!!!

[@XenusMama]

Please do a review on Perricone products. Thank you.

[@cherlene88]

Omg this is so timely. I have been eyeballing the products these couple of weeks as my current stuff are running out

[@a.edwards2393]

From economics to biology and chemistry, so complete, very documented... poor La Mer.. if those 2 word goes together!!! 🤣🤣 Tks Doctor 💝😀

[@immamarsia]

Hi... I've got allergic issues on my face, especially Tzone and around my nose always itching and dry, I always scratch it coz I can't handle the itching. My face has redness and my dead skin always showup around cheeks and nose, it happens almost 3years. After watching Dr.Dray videos and copies her skincare routine around 1 month now. My cheeks and nose problems are soft and hydrated now. no more dry dead skin and redness. I'm done with expensive skincare. Cerave moist cream really" de'best!! It can be used as base makeup and more long last with no breakout on my face after using foundation for a whole day long

[@elarfaouizeineb7560]

you should see my face dr dray when i saw the notification hhhhhh

[@Kirsten_is_cursed10]

elarfaoui zeineb Fact: seeing her notifications makes my skin 20% clearer instantly 😂

[@DrDrayzday]

Happy Monday!

[@amysophia1314]

elarfaoui zeineb sane here. Jaw dropped. I was like give me my ☕️ let’s go!!!! ❤️❤️

[@calliefreeman7937]

Same! I was with a friend and had to explain why I was freaking out.

[@JanetJenkins]

Dare I say I'm a bit obsessed? Dr. Dray is single-highhandedly getting my entire skin life together!

[@SaturnCrashing]

The minute I put on La Mers moisturizing cream, my skin got soooo red and inflamed. I had to take it off immediately. That was scary. Never experienced that before, at least that bad. Oh yeah, and I have rosacea. Me and that cream became sworn enemies that moment. Just frightening.

[@jaclynlozano3773]

Your skin looks flawless so beautiful 🙌 can’t wait until I get to that point with my skin 😩 thanks for all your tips

[@chronicmommy]

Jaclynlozano ❤️

[@DrDrayzday]

[@Kristina-ix9cm]

As always thanks for the great information 🥰 Would you maybe consider doing a brand review on Avene?

[@helpfulnatural]

Absolutely love this review! The prices for these products is so ridiculous when the active ingredients are in so many other far less expensive ones. Dr. Dray, please keep harping on fragrance in skincare! We need to make these cosmetics companies understand how damaging it is to the skin! :-D Oh....and thank you for the clear explanation about parabens. :)

[@jt8142]

helpfulnatural: Reading the comments for this video are surprising and disheartening. In spite of Dr Dray clearly not recommending La Mer, many subs are diminishing her criticism and seem to think that because she did a brand review, she’s endorsed it. Why don’t people get that fragrance is detrimental to skin health? Enough said. The fact that people think spending OUTRAGEOUS prices for problematic skin is ok utterly baffles me.

[@helpfulnatural]

@@jt8142 It is quite baffling. I changed my skincare completely a few months ago to all-fragrance-free which eliminated all the redness, overly dry skin, watery eyes and even my under eye circles are far less dark and noticeable. I'm using far less concealer than I used to and my skin looks and feels better than it did 10 years ago. CeraVe saved my skin!

[@sallyt1134]

I love your wealth of knowledge and honesty . Keep up the great work. I learn so much from you!

[@KimStam]

I am sure someone else has commented on it... but the 'spitting' in the moisturizer comment killed me! Great review and off to see your video on pore minimizers ❤️

[@sheilagaskill2740]

Dr. Dray, you look beautiful today and your skin glows! I really enjoy your videos and learn something new every time. Thank You for sharing your knowledge with us.

[@kokoko_asmr1585]

Except seaweed and other few notable ingredients, they are just basically fragrance added moisterizers. I wouldn’t spend 250 bucks for breaking my face. Cerave is just wonderful and never breaks my skin. Thank you Dr.Dray.

[@ridgeforrester5199]

Dr Drey,the la mer tinted sunscreen looks amazing on you,gives you a beautiful colour and glow !!

[@MamaGG16]

Would you do a video on the best products for new borns!? Such as diaper creams, lotions, body washes, etc!?

[@rachaelburt1737]

Cerave. I told my friend to use it on her baby who was having really dry skin, and didn’t want to use a steroid cream which the doctor prescribed. She said that she noticed a huge difference the next day after using it on her babies skin.

[@suecone2198]

This was great info on reasons to not put a bankroll of money in a product just because it’s supposed to fix everything. I so agree about fragrance being in anything you apply for skincare products. It’s also great to know you can get great skincare at a fraction of the cost of their products. Wish I had seen the video on blue light before I was talked into spending money on a “blue light” product. Live and learn from Dr Day & Dr Lin. Thanks 🙏

[@YungConundrumForever]

We want that Dr Dray skin care. I’d clean out the entire store shelf if it had your name on it. ❤️

[@nanase21]

This is the kind of video that we need on youtube! Especially when this kind of brands are partnering with EVERY vlogger and you really cannot trust their reviews anymore. Always coming back to you, Andrea! Thanks for also spending that much money for the sake of the video! 💖

[@jenihansen]

Love that you reviewed these! If you ever try The Concentrate, I’d love your opinion on that product in particular. Thanks, Dr. Dray ✨

[@sylph99]

Yes, she strategically didn’t cover the best one!

[@jieding1159]

This is one of the most helpful reviews I have ever watched! Thank you, Dr. Dray, for the review and the list of references! Would you consider doing a review for the brand Algenist? I find out that it carries products that go on well with my hypersensitive skin. Big thanks and congratulations!

[@truly4927]

I love their moisturizing cream. You’re supposed to rub a small amount in your hands to heat it and dab it on your face with your fingers. I buy a one ounce jar and Nordstrom’s gives me about 10 little sample travel jars if they have them. Lasts me all year because I only use it about 3x a week at night. Ask for samples to try at home. It’s so good.

[@bluebear74]

This wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be, was expecting Dr Dray to be harsher lol. I actually use the creme de la mer at night and it works really well for me.

[@beckyc.5743]

Whoa, Dr. Dray! Can Biologique Recherche be next?

[@michellejennifer]

Love p50W!

[@ImenBen12]

Yesss plsss

[@milaandconnor1022]

I m excited for that. she will demolish the creams for sure. but the serums and p50 she will love. I know it . but maybe... she can find some dupes. omg. that would beeeee a xmas present ❤❤❤

[@TigerMonthlyHits]

Dora Katerina I actually asked her about the serum colostrum and she said it sounded bogus. I listed each ingredient for her. This was last year

[@samueldavid27]

I love the p50!

[@Kim-SCUSA]

As usual, VERY VERY informative. Great review. Thank you. I like the way your skin looked with the tinted moisturizer.

[@carolchadwick3580]

I will not purchase La Mer way to expensive. Good review and the sunscreen 🧴 was a perfect match!

[@DrDrayzday]

:)

[@amysophia1314]

I’m SOOO EXCITED to watch this. Ive been praying ( legit) you would do this!!! 👍👍👍👍 I’ve been on the fence for years to purchase. You are the ONLY one I truly trust w my skin sensitivity. Here we go!! ❤️❤️❤️💋💋

[@aprilblossoms4]

Thanks for demystifying these products/ brands doc!

[@stjohnbaby]

I am a professional Makeup artist,and had the pleasure of meeting Max Huber,the creator of LaMer,in the Bay Area,in the 1980s.I was one of M.A.C. cosmetics first makeup artists when they opened at Nordstrom,S.F,when Frank Toscan the Canadian makeup artist created M.A.C..It is not the same product after it's purchase by Lauder,there is a distinct difference between then and now.Lauder purchased LA Mer. in 1995.

[@Rhiareyn]

“It’s a $245 perfume - don’t be fooled into thinking that this is a skincare product. It is a perfume, nothing more.” 😂😂😂

[@xana5649]

???

[@EmilyRose970]

I'm SO glad you're always 'harping on' about fragrance! I have extremely sensitive skin, and if something has the potential to irritate the skin, it WILL irritate my skin.

[@taylorgrover7365]

Brand recommendation: I've been curious about is a brand called Eczema Honey. Havnt tried it would love to hear your thoughts one day. ❤

[@AndreaHa]

I know you aren't asking me... but my toddler has eczema and I looked into those products myself, on my journey to help his impaired skin barrier. Most of them included problematic ingredients, such as essential oils (orange and lavender, etc... which are fragrance.) If you have eczema I recommend starting with products recommended by the national eczema association. In stores those products have a seal somewhere on the product label.

[@austynk6012]

Taylor grover I would try it and worst comes to worst it was awesome as a post shave lotion and was amazing for sunburns!

[@komatsusakura]

How about Melvita and Kose ?

[@tristensullivan5602]

I've Used a lot of Skincare and Struggled a lot with acne and La Mer Truly Healed my Skin and My Skin Barrier Overall!!

[@victoriasault3384]

I just couldn't, the fragrance scares me and facial burning isn't my jam. I have passed on the sephora perks and offers on this brand. Awesome video ❤️

[@stochasticthots]

Dr Dray! Thank you so much for all of your videos. I've learned so much about skin care and the beauty industry

[@ririririPXN]

Awesome video! Thank you! If you could ever give an opinion on Biologique Recherche that would be great and I would be so grateful!

[@nicolecuadra5550]

ririririPXN yes!!

[@sacha5756]

Yes !! I went for a consultation after so many people said it completely cleared up their acne . The esthetician said if I wanted it to work I need to purchase their entire skin care range and use solely that. 🙄 Consequently, I’d like to hear an opinion of a dermatologist before I spend serious bucks on it.

[@Kimi95B]

Lamer? No thanks, I have CeraVe.

[@angelacharles65]

Cerave is my favorite skincare brand

[@rachaelburt1737]

And it’s the best! Changed and saved my skin. I genuinely recommend it to everyone.

[@mercyrn35]

I love their SA face wash

[@OLBLASHES]

@@mercyrn35 everyone’s skin is different that SA cleanser and the foaming cleanser triggered eczema for me for the first time in life. Now it’s something that can flare at any time.

[@MrHarlow34]

How is cera?
