Know the SKIN TYPE of your face - It's IMPORTANT! | Dr Gaile Robredo-Vitas

It's very IMPORTANT to know the SKIN TYPE of your face because it makes choosing your products and formulating your skin care regimen easier.
Your skin type will also guide you when it comes to proper application of products and treatments for your skin.
In this video, we will try to determine what your SKIN TYPE is and I will also talk about each of them in detail and give some recommendations.
Everything in this video serves to educate and give information about anything related to skin and skincare and shall in no way take the place of a proper consultation with an expert such as a board-certified dermatologist.

Doc Gaile hoping you would tackle rejuvenating sets products..is rejuv sets good for the face.

[@irenegaile]

Nerizza Diana Fe Miranda Yes, I plan to talk about ingredients, not rejuvenating sets kc iba iba ang laman nun. I honestly think that it’s important na alam mo ung laman ng mga products na ginagamit mo sa skin mo. So when buying sets, remember to ask the seller to tell you what they contain.

[@nerizzadianafemiranda486]

Thank you Doc Gaile. 😍😗

I saw this video and it is good to know. I used a lot of diff products for my face but I can't find what suitable for me I always had a pimples on t zone area (oily part) of my face. 😔 Should I go now to dermatologist..

[@irenegaile]

Hello! yes it's always best to have your skin assessed by a dermatologist, especially if youve tried so many products and nothing seems to work :)

[@christinejoycudillo2284]

Hi,doc, does it mean na for oily skin you do not recommend using moisturizers and serum?

[@irenegaile]

You can still use if you need it. A lot of individuals with oily skin use products that are drying and may benefit from using moisturizers.Bottom line its knowing your skin type and skin needs and using one that works for you :)

[@zyannjude334]

Anna Patricia Padillon hello! Thank you din!!! I talk about flat scars in my acne scars video. But cge ill try to make a more specific video on that :) thanks for the topic suggestion :)

[@annapatriciapadillon3902]

@@irenegaile Thank you! 🤗💕 Yup, kung anong specific skincare products po sana like niacinamide etc. Then kung effective & safe to use po ba yung portable na rf machine sa market for brightening/pimples hehe.

[@irenegaile]

Anna Patricia Padillon oh there are a lot of skin brightening products available OTC. Niacinamide, kojic acid, arbutin. You just have to find ung hiyang sayo. Having said that, flat acne scars fade naman with time, even if you dont do anything about it, un nga lng minsan matagal. With regards to RF machines, they are usually indicated for lifting, tightening and improving circulation but not for scars (unless its the fractionated one). Also, the ones for home use have low energy compared to the ones we have in the clinic.

[@Dyna-dv6bo]

I think my skin type is changing without doing or using anything like skin care products. I don't know. I still can't determine my skin type. And I want to buy some skin care products first time because I have these kind of acne called like " tiny bumps ". So yah, i hope someone help me to find the right products of my skin type.

[@irenegaile]

I recommend a proper consultation and assessment :)

[@rhoney7]

I have normal skin. Is "simple" kind to skin facial cleanser " okay???

[@irenegaile]

Are you referring to simple the brand? if yes I have not personally tried it but i know of a few colleagues who have and they say that it is ok.

Sofia Anne De Leon hello, it’s a prescription drug :)

[@lemons9777]

Do you recommend the brand La Mer or is it just way too overpriced?

[@irenegaile]

Ive tried it and it works well on my skin, however if the price is too much, there are other moisturizers that can do the same for the skin :)

[@rieljaro161]

Hi, Doc! nadiscover ko po yung channel dahil dun sa suncreen vid nyo i just want to ask po anong recommend products for skincare para teens (17) like me (acne prone) for example po need po ba ng toner or sunscreen? moisturizer and cleanser? Thanks po plano ko po kasing mas alagaan yung skin ko :))

[@irenegaile]

Gentle cleanser (pwedeng with salicylic acid if oily ka), moisturizer (if needed) and sunscreen. If you dont have skin issues i dont recommend putting a lot of products :)

[@delossantosmichelle5791]

Can u tell more about hormonal break outs ma'am?

[@irenegaile]

Michelle Delos Santos acne/breakouts are largely influenced by hormones, which stimulate increase in oil production. Planning on making a video about it, pls watch our for it :)

[@alfiedaruca6523]

Hai doc. Pag dry skin po ba di pwede gumamit ng retinol at aha??

[@irenegaile]

Pwede naman but with caution and with additional moisturizers

[@christelledadang6771]

Thank you for the information Doc, what best product po ba for my oily skin then ngayon po bumalik po yung break out

[@irenegaile]

Hello! for oily skin its important to exfoliate 1-2x a week either with a physical exfoliant (eg. gentle scrubs) or a chemical exfoliant (eg. AHAs and BHAs) and to double cleanse at least once a day in the evening to make sure that all the oil, dirt, debris and dead skin cells are efficiently removed from your skin. These will ensure that there is no buildup which usually leads to breakout. Ingredients that help control oil include salicylic acid, niacinamide and retinoids.

[@christelledadang6771]

Thank you po Doc ☺ God bless

[@irenegaile]

Christelle Dadang youre welcome and thanks too! :)

[@christelledadang6771]

I've tried a cleanser po that contains salicylic acid and niacinamide but it worsen po my pimples, so I stop using it kasi po ang sakit po sa m face.

[@irenegaile]

Christelle Dadang hmmm, in that case i think its time for you to consult a dermatologist to find out what your skin really needs :)

[@jecelle2129]

hello po, if naka air condition area po ba nakaka dry din po ba siya? I mean hindi ko na po kasi sure if oily pa or nag dry na po yung face ko. Thank you

[@irenegaile]

Yes, air conditioned rooms can cause dry skin kc air conditioning lowers humidity and if matagal ka inside the room it can lead to dry and dehydrated skin.

[@vanessareodava8702]

Hi po! Kapag po ba gumamit ng mga rejuv set tas namumula na yung face? Yun na po yung sign para mag stop sa pag gamit?

[@irenegaile]

I dont know what’s in rejuvenation sets kc. I dont recommend na gumamit ka ng skincare products na hindi mo alam ang laman. And since i dont know what’s in them and hindi kita nakita, i cannot give my opinion. But i can say this, pag namula, humapdi, kumati, namalat or namaga ung mukha mo, best to consult a dermatogist.

[@katebaek8008]

What if my skin is Oily dry combination doc?

[@irenegaile]

Then you have to find products that will work on that kind of skintype. Hal ung oily skin products dun sa part na oily (eg. tzone) tapos ung pang dry na products dun sa areas na dry (eg. cheeks)

[@katebaek8008]

Ano recommendation nyo na product na good Doc for Oily and dry skin type? THAN YOU & GOD BLESS DOC

Finally! Nakaabot din sa board-certified dermatologist! Dr., gumamit ako ng blotting paper at yung sa nose ko, as in soaked talaga yung pagiging oily pero yung sa forehead, cheeks at chin ko po, may oil naman pero hindi gaano. Is it still considered as oily type of skin po?

Combination to oily :)

Normal to combination skin :) What are you using na cleanser?

[@jeralynrivera6815]

Wala po doc, wala po akong skin care. Pero marami po akong pimples (small bumps na makakati). Nahihirapan po kasi ako madetermine skin type ko. Oily po sa t zone tsaka sa mismong cheeks baba ng mata pero sa ibang area dry.

[@jeralynrivera6815]

Marami po akong malilit na pimples sobrang liit po nila na makati minsan. Hindi po ako tinutubuaan ng malalaking pimples na may nana, malilit lang po minsan sobrang liit na may konting nana. Marami po akong dark spots kasi kinukutkot ko po before yung pimples ko. Di ko po alam kung paano siya i treat or ano gagamitin kong skin care kasi ngayon lang po ako nagka interes

Christine Santiago the best way to lighten your skin safely is to avoid heat and uv radiation exposure, to wear sunblock daily, especially when outdoors and to reapply as needed. Pwede dn nakatulong ang whitening lotions.

[@valiantstatechny307]

Many people say that when you have combination skin, your forehead, nose and chin are oily while your cheeks are dry or normal. But there are also others who say that if you have combination skin, your forehead and nose are oily and then your chin and cheeks are dry or normal. Ano po ang ibig sabihin nun?

[@irenegaile]

Combination skin just means na may parts ng face mo na oily, may parts na normal or dry. More often than not ung areas na mas maraming oil glands like the forehead nose and chin ang oily but thats not always the case :) Kumbaga hindi fixed at parepareho sa lahat ung areas na oily, normal or dry :)
