I would say use a vitamin c in a pump. The more you take out the top of a dropper bottle or lid it allows air to get in the bottle. And we all know how unstable c is. I'm trying Isdin sunscreen. They won a Nobel Prize for their formula with plankton. They say it can reverse the signs of photo aging.

Finally one doc to speak about overdoing unnecessary skincare when you dont even need.

[@FireCracker-vd8pq]

I was totally on board with buying his 4 step system... until I saw the price. I so wish I could afford that, but sadly that is way out of my budget. What I love about Dr. Youn is that he always gives us alternatives so that even people on a budget can benefit from his advice. Maybe one day I'll be able to give it a try.

[@carolecoffman4276]

Lemongrass Spa has natural skin pro and so does Norwex.

[@anti_acido]

honestly, just get to know your skin type (dry, oily, sensitive) use a good facial sunscreen and you'll be doing more than enough to be thankful 40 years later. my mom has good skin because she started using (probably very cheap because she was super poor) anti-aging creams and facial sunscreen in her early 20s, while her younger brothers - who live in a very hot and sunny place and never used anything bc theyre male and dont care - all have dry as hell skin and legit look at least 20 years older than her despite being way younger. while the creams she used didnt prevent her from gettting wrinkles, she doesnt have saggy smile lines or wrinkly eyebags while her brothers do, nor those visible spot-like freckles you get with aging. and although obsession with looking younger is becoming terrifying these days, i think this type of preventive skin care is more about taking care of the future you. these days, with our technology, it takes very little effort to not have to age like an old peasant from the medieval times.

[@Campanella12]

I can definetely recommend you look into Korean Skincare products. They are way ahead in the game and still really affordable.

[@akshaytarfe]

If you are an absolute beginner, just start using sunscreen everyday, a good facewash or cleanser and moisturise especially at night. Once you get this routine right, you can modify your skincare as per your budget anytime. Cerave is good brand to begin with.

[@ub-4630]

Nah.. you can do it yourself. Never stop learning, my friend.

[@williamehlers5158]

Another important thing to note is that results take time. You’re not going to see much results from any skincare product in less than thirty days. Most products will take much longer to see anything drastic.

[@MrsSaxophonegirl]

I like that you say to use a routine that works for you. I’ve gotten compliments for years on my skin, and I use a cleanser every 2-3 days, rinse morning and night with a wash cloth, and use a sunscreen moisturizer every morning. When I tried adding products to get ready for my wedding, I saw a massive decline in how my skin looked. Allergies, dryness, oiliness, etc. I will likely use a vitamin C serum at some point, but I’m ok to stay away from retinols and embrace my wrinkles. But again, that works for me, it may not work for everyone else!

[@shivanikaushik9000]

I totally agree with the fact that applying less really works. I discovered it when I skipped doing my night routine/day routine sometimes and just applied a cica gel and after 9-10 hours I felt my skin feel good. I realized that sometimes missing out on the routine is actually the much-needed window your skin needs to work for you.

[@silverghostcat1924]

I've seen some influencers that are using as many as 10 different products. I wonder about bad interactions from using so many products, especially if they're from many different companies.

[@DoctorYoun]

Agree!

[@bananasun_milk4080]

I use Dermalogica skincare because my dad is the head of R&D so we get $100 worth of products every month, and it works well for my acne-prone and sensitive skin unlike most American brands that I've tried. The only caveat is the price, which I don't have to worry about right now but once my dad retires, I'm going to have to find a more affordable alternative.

[@MaryWehmeier]

Keep using Dermalogic as long as you can. I’ve been using it the basic routine for over 20 years and it is still one of the best at its price and availability. Tell Dad thanks.

[@sunb5738]

I had a phase where I tried a lot of different skincare products but it really didn't help and actually worsened my skin... Now I only use some serums, natural oils in the evening an moisturizer, to me less is more when it comes to skincare !

[@hinamari5371]

Exactly, diet should be first or second, before or behind sunscreen An edit: I see people are reading this so; On the topic of diet I really recommend the channel: Dr. Sten Ekberg He talks about diet and I think some viewers of this channel will also like his channel too, If you do decide to watch it, get ready for many hours of learning, no really I'm not kidding

I've been using Differin gel for years now because I used to have bad acne, it helped a lot. I still use it almost every night. I heard that it is a good retinoid for anti aging though I don't think I'm there yet. I have noticed though that my forehead, which is where I apply it, has no indication of creases or wrinkles while I can see some forming on my eyes.

[@DoctorYoun]

Differin works similarly to tretinoin so keep using it if it’s helping you!

[@ProudMommyOf3PawneePrincesses]

Plz don't apply near the eyes, though. We lack sebaceous glands in the eye area & the dermis is far thinner/more fragile. I've noticed Dif gel MUST help forehead & smile lines bc ppl seem to not have usual "11" brow lines+ smoother [non] smile lines of most 10yrs younger than them. I'd ask derm for safe eye care that won't counteract where Diff gel meets eye cream/serum.

i feel like all my years of avoiding being outside has helped😂. i drink lots of water, more than any other beverage. i think listening to your own body is helpful. i personally am vegan so i don’t have any dairy and my skin has gotten even better over the years from never eating dairy or meats. also: sunscreen and water. don’t underestimate sleep as well. granted i don’t always get the best sleep but i really try because there’s nothing better than waking up feeling truly rested 😊 less is more in skincare, 10 steps isn’t necessarily best. use less and add more only if you feel you need it

[@k4karina732]

I firmly believe you only need Vit A & B in the PM followed by your moisturiser & Vit C in the AM followed by your SPF & exfoliate once a week with an AHA / Amino Acid complex as you have the added benefit of BHA. This works wonders for my skin & I really don't feel the need to incorporate other actives. Simple & effective

When I was younger I had very oily cystic acne prone skin. That didn’t settle down until I was in my 30s. Now in my 50s, my skin is more dry, but I still, occasionally, get small acne cysts.

Definitely be careful with tretinoin if you have sensitive skin! I've been using it for over a year now for acne and while for the most part my skin has reacted okay to it, this past winter was rough! My face got so dry it was peeling (I also have eczema so I'm sure this contributed). I ended up changing my routine up and only putting the tretinoin on every other night and adding Eucerin Ecemza Relief as my nightly moisturizer. Cleared up the peeling within a week! Hoping to just outright prevent any peeling this winter by sticking with this routine 😂

[@Ohkeh640]

You can apply moisturiser first

[@dlilwon]

You can sandwich your Tret. After washing your face apply moisturiser, wait 10mins or more if you like and then apply Tret, wait 10mins again and then apply moisturiser and since you have very dry skin i would apply an oil/cream (i forget what this is called) its to seal all the moisture in. I also have a bedside humidifier i use to help.

[@kittymcditty8960]

I only use tretinoin in the spring/summer/early fall months because the cold dry winter climate where I live does not interact well with it on my face either.

[@TheNurseWhoLovedMe89]

Thank you so much for this video, Dr Youn! I never knew before when to put on syrums, oils, or creams, and in which order. I changed up my routine to match your suggestions, and I already feel like it's making a difference! Such a relief 😇🤗

[@Yana.ayana6]

I am so agree with Dr. Youn that some skin conditions might not be ok with actives ingredients. I'm 38 y old, no wrinkles barely crows feet, never use any peeling/active exfoliator that actually peeling the skin ( I only use toner with cotton pad, peeling gel (love it coz, cause nothing on my skin) or sensitive friendly SA face lotion once in the blue moon if I want to smoothen up the skin) but I don't using it every single day, just occasionally. I have super sensitive skin and I'm so happy dr. Youn mentions about thin skin. My skin has already been like this since I was young, back home, my fam will call me rotten tomatoes sometimes, whenever I just came back from outside at noon time, some south east asia are no kidding hot, and my parents house just 15-20 mnt walk to the beach/ sea side. My skincare steps are so simple Cleanse Tone Serum Moisturize Day time, I sometimes do not apply serum and just add sunscreen. I normally just get moisturizer with SPF because I'm mainly indoor. My moisturizer is actually vit C essence, but the consistency are way thicker and than my serum so I put it as the last step before sunscreen if I use one. for weird reason majority lotion and cream form doesn't work for my skin, it's been 4 years I'm using Japanese brand and few Korean that I already fell great with it, it's also help my rosacea flare up last time (it was second worst skin prob experience, small mistake and I triggered the allergic my eyes and nose are weird, my eyes completely looks like the blue avatar coz it's swollen and felt like pulling with cartoon witch nose). I stopped using face powder since 2009 and no make before especially now, didn't use one for my wedding too. But what I think really help my skin is on and off no sugar (can't stopped it like forever because once a while would love to have cake or other sweets) and low carbs diet (I didn't mean no carbs at all, just low to moderate carbs (I only did Keto once) and I do IF unintentionally because I'm too busy in the morning that I only can start drinking my matcha/ coffee around 11.a.m ish sometimes around 1-2 p.m And since late 20's (around 28 y old to be exact), I had hormon issues due to my weight I believed, I didn't get my period for 5 months and I started had crazy huge painful pimples (thank God it's all gone within 3-4 months ans nobody noticed that I ever had those big like marble with yellow fuss pimples) due to this condition I clean my diet took supplements less than a week I got my periodsand it's been all good since that time. I did smoothie fast for a week before cleaning up my diet and started taking supplements such as glutathione, collagen, vit C and e or pre mix. Now I consume more stuff including ceramide, hyaluronic acid, hydrolyzed collagen both from cows and marine, turmeric, NAC, ashwaganda, magnesium, hatomugi, Bulgarian rose oil supplement and probiotics, also I did consume evening primerose oil capsules before. I know it's bit much so I devided into 2 sometimes 3 in a day, some in empty stomach, after brunch and dinner. I personally like something from the inside. I sometimes take a break Both supplements and skincare at least min 4 days and max can be almost 2 weeks for supplement especially if I eat bad. Skincare about a weeks max, just wash with unscented baby soap I'm good and put nothing after. So sorry for the long comment

I'm going to be 36 this year and I've never had any kind of skin care routine, I pretty much washed my face with water only and did a face mask once or twice a year. I've just noticed my skin ageing a lot more recently (I was very ill stuck at home for the last decade but I have been working outside for the past year) so I went and bought a bunch of skin care in the reduced section of TK Maxx because I thought at least that would be the good stuff. I'm a bit overwhelmed by it and I'm trying to hear myself up to having a daily skin care routine, preferably one that doesn't involve needing running water because I don't have that in my caravan. I'm neurodivergent so I thought learning about skincare first and getting excited about it might be the way to talk myself into wanting to use these products on my face daily but I'm not sure if it works like that, I don't know if I can force myself to hyperfocus on this but I am worried because I am starting to look different and it's kinda hard to accept change.. It took me a really long time to recognise my face after a facial injury which left my nose pushed slightly more to one side and now the eye it's pushing against looks like it's aging faster or unevenly because it's got more slack in the skin from where my nose is now. I hope making the rest of my skin look a bit better might make me feel better about that.

[@kathyn1343]

It sounds like you have had a difficult time of it! I would start with making sure you cleanse at night and rinse with water in the morning. You can use bottled water applied to a gentle cloth in the morning and micellar water at night, which doesn’t require rinsing. Apply moisturizer, and then sunscreen in the morning and start there. Once you can do that daily start adding one step at a time but those are the very basics imo!

I work at a beauty store and whenever somebody comes in looking for foundation, or they say there’s isn’t working. I always ask what are they doing for a skin care routine. Because that can make a massive difference in the way you are makeup up lays on the skin. We all have a texture, but there are definitely products to help tone down the texture. I’m 42 and I love wearing make up, but I love when I hear the compliment, you have great skin instead of I love your make up or what foundation are you wearing? I also don’t look my age.❤ 42 and people think that I am in my early 30s. I am here for that all day every day.😊 sometimes I think also that these brands come out with products that are individualized ingredients. Well, yeah, you may think that you’re saving money but in all actuality, you are not. The price tag may be small, but if you find one serum with multiples of those ingredients, you will actually be saving money and probably getting better results.

[@SKAPAADOOPY]

Glad to know I'm not the only one who prefers skin care over make-up. I know you can do both but if I were to choose one,...

[@WooWooGirl]

I use three toners. One is a homemade one which contains ACV with the Mother...of course. 1 part ACV /4 parts distilled water In a plastic spray bottle with a cotton pad. That is what I use in the AM...along with actives. In the mid-PM, after cleansing...I use pure Rose hydrosol as toner with different actives. Bedtime is no Toner and occlusive moisturizer with Retinol Oil and one other active. My skin has improved some by following these guidelines...but I have a long way to go to feel confident. Aging SUCKS. After "cosmetic" or "medical" microneedling...I use an OTC Green Tea Toner that some Estheticians and Dermatologists have recommended in the past. I try to follow these guidelines of Dr. Youn. I trust him. I cannot afford to pay 250 dollars per month for three bottles of a Dermatologist's product line. I appreciate those dermatologists who will recommend alternative and more affordable skincare options...like Dr. Youn.

[@sandrajackson709]

I never expected a whole lot from skincare ingredients. I have used retinoid products for years and it does not do a thing for wrinkles but it does improve texture which is the most any active ingredient does aside from correcting dark spots and evening skin tone. When you have aging skin there is little anything can do for you aside from cosmetic procedures. I never saw the benefits of chemical peel It just burns your skin off temporarily showing newer skin that grows back the same wrinkled skin accept with a greater risk of hyperpigmentation for darker skin when you can simply exfoliate.

I had chronical psoriasis (scalp, legs and back) since 17 only treatment that really worked for me is diprosalic. Drops on scalp and cream in other body areas. It healed within 2 weeks like a miracle. I used on back and legs over diprosalic cream (which isn't easily absorbed by the skin if it can be) to seal it with Vaseline. Since it's cheap medication maybe you could give it a try?

[@ryptoll4801]

This is great and all, but it really only covers one/two skin problems: ageing and sun damage. What about all the other skin problems people can have? I have a lot of scarring from acne, deep, crooked dents that bacteria keeps getting trapped in which causes infections and itching, and large pores that keep getting clogged. I also still get the occasional, mild breakouts despite having dry skin. I also get flaky skin in some areas due to that dryness. That's how my skin is without any skincare at all, aside from maybe a weekly wash. My solution for this is to clean with strong alcohol, ie hand sanitizer (I know you said "no alcohol" but it's the only thing that can clean out those dents properly, I don't use it every day though) with a mild face cleanser, exfoliation, and layers of moizturisers, ie aftershave, aloe vera gel and a thin layer of oil. That's also the order I use those products. My intention with this crazy routine is basically: harsh cleansing and scrubbing to get rid of difficult to reach bacteria, then soothe, cool and restore moisture. And it does have great effects, like making my skin clean, soft, itch-free, infection-free, and at least doesn't worsen the acne. But it doesn't fix the scarring, nor the acne, nor the constantly clogging pores. Why? I don't think it's because I'm using the wrong products or in the wrong order, etc. I think it's because these kinda issues can't be fixed with creams and cleansers to begin with. Maybe laser treatments and prescription drugs could, but not regular over-the-counter stuff. That's fine by me as I'm just not gonna go to some beauty salon, dermatologist or whatever to get some costly, super intense treatments, and that is my personal choice. I just think we need to be real about just how much skincare can actually do. It's great for many things, I'm not denying that, but it's not a miracle cure for all skin issues.

[@lizabetx483]

Hello here is a suggested routine that avoids alcohol and includes skin actives: AM : 1. Foaming Facial Cleanser or Renewing SA Cleanser (Cerave ) 2. Witch hazel and Aloe Vera toner (Thayer's Unscented Toner) 3. Vitamin C powder (1/4-1/2 scoop) combined with 3% Ferulic Acid- 3% Reservatol serum (The Ordinary ) 4. A moisturizer with SPF 30 (Vanicream) PM 1. Face cleanser 2. Adapalene Retinoid (Differin Gel from drugstore) OR 2 % Salicylic Acid leave on treatment (Cerave Acne Control Gel) 3. Niacinamide moisturizer (Cerave PM Facial Moisturizing Lotion) 4.Occlusive moisturizer (Aquaphor healing ointment). Alternate the Differin Gel with the Acne Control Gel. Use them on alternate nights never at the same time. You can look up skin cycling. See a dermatologist for micro-needling to reduce acne scars or try an at home micro-needling stamp such as Banish. Avoid D.I.Y micro-needle rollers which can further damage the skin. I don't have acne scars so I have never used micro needling. But you can see if it works for you.

You can also use Oleanolic acid which decreases oil production - Bio Balance brand.

Thanks for the tips doctor Youn! I have a question. First the context , i turned 19 a while ago and my skin care is pretty basic, _extremely basic_ infact, it's a cleanser that suits my skin and a moisturizer and sunscreen. sunscreen I started using only recently about a year ago. I exfoliate, and use face packs and masks weekly too. My question is - should I be including the anti-aging active ingredients already? Since you put great emphasis on it. My skin looks pretty good and clear, it's not glass skin and has visible pores and i do have tanned skin from sun damage throughout all these years where I did not use sun protection. I also do not drink alcohol or smoke. So, is it still important for me to use active ingredients? They're pretty expensive where I'm from but i could still take them. Also, I had heard that anti-aging ingredients are best used when you're 25+ so I'm a bit confused here.

Same principle as to why I do not use hand gel. It kills off all the good bacteria on your hands and dries out your skin. I just make sure to wash my hands with soap and water when needed. And I wash my face with an approved cleanser that does not irritate my face and nothing else.

Shout out Dr Youn!! I just watched re runs of My strange addiction and he was the doc who was speaking to the girl who was addicted to ass injections 😂

[@massomouse1556]

If your skin isn't used to an active, like say a rotenoid, or something like an A- or BHA, would they still be effective if you started by buffering an active or A-/BHA serums into your moisturizer?

[@teahperez6092]

I get a years worth of prescriptions for Trenton from my family dr. When I get my annual physical. You don’t need a specialist in order to get it. You can start at the lowest percentage and work your way up to prevent flaking and peeling 😊

[@marce84624]

Thanks Dr. Youn for sharing this information. I was wondering if may be possible to talk about the use of PLEXR for sagging skin. Thnx

[@momentswithyahya4239]

Alright alright. I keep seeing Dr Youn’s videos but haven’t tuned in to watch. But I finally did today All I have to say is…..FOLLOWING! 🙂🙂🙂

[@yintotheyang6433]

Agreed. My skin was best when I had little to no products and worst with multiple products.

[@moxie77]

Hi Dr. Youn, thank you for this! I use a serum at night (per the manufacturer's instructions) that contains vitamins c and e, peptides, retinol, bakuchiol, niacinamide, ferulic acid, and more (it's their "All-in-One Face Serum." Do I still need to use another vitamin c serum in the morning, or am I good with just the night time serum application? Thank you!

[@LavaCreeperPeople]

ok

[@csansolo]

Simple and good.

[@Kari.415]

Thanks for the blue print

[@ChrisBartleyLeo]

I have thick oily skin. I have never peeled with all three strengths of Tretinoin.

[@6Jillybeans]

Pardon me. What are Growth Factors?

[@proboiriawan2204]

any delay should be applied from serum to moisturize

[@itstia552]

I loved this upload Doc and agree with all you have said in the video.... Keep goin Doc... we love ya ❤❤❤

[@Rifa-dv3cb]

Thanks a lot. That's a great help to me, a complete beginner to skincare. But I'd like to know what kind of exfoliator I exactly need for my acne prone skin. Can someone kindly share me your knowledge?

[@mariacarmelo8958]

I need to get back on Obagi. I stopped using Retinol about a year ago and I look like sh*t now! 😅

[@kaye_tee]

Hi Doc, I followed the steps you mentioned. But for me, serums and creams arent suitable for my skin

[@lmccarty2201]

Why should I be afraid of aging? Death is what happens when you stop aging! Good basic skincare is best for my sensitive skin!

[@nm9412]

Thank you for this very helpful video!

[@valerief1231]

I saw my cetophil bottle and clicked right away. I’m terrible about following asking care routine, and I’m 56 years old. I don’t think I’m ever going to be foo fee like my mama, daughter, or friends, (foo fee aka adult female lol) fortunately I stopped spending time in the sun pretty young, on account I had children to support and worked with out a vacation for 15 years. I do go to the beach a few times twice a year, my hubs got sunburned so bad, that I’m diligent about sunscreen when we go, but I’m not very good about the night time routine, I wash my face when I bathe, then use Cetophil afterwards. I rarely wear make up, but I rarely leave the house, since my husband has worked from home since 2019, I even still have my groceries delivered right into my little wagon on the front porch.

[@TheSupertecnology]

I made my own skincare routines, and it can get pretty complicated. Lucky AI and the internet can provide a lot of knowledge, and my skin is slowly but surely looking better than ever, despite being naturally young looking. Definitely skin barrier is often overlooked when it comes to a proper skincare routine.

[@sophiaandradekapadia]

this is very helpful. thank you 🌷

[@sarahadkins2540]

I have tried Retin-A and all it did was make my skin peel and break out non-stop. I put moisturizer on after letting the Retin-A soak in and the peeling and flaking wouldn’t stop. I quit after a month I looked so bad. There is no hope for my skin when that’s how it reacts on the lowest dose.

[@Kam-go3bc]

Does having oily skin always mean "thick" skin?

[@cellnahwl6711]

Moisturiser than retinol than Moisturiser again is the best combo

[@Bekobi117]

Thanks for the video! When I use an exfoliator then I shouldn't use Retinol at this day or?

[@itsdamla]

Hi doc🧡In what order shall I apply niacinamide, azelaic acid, spf 50 and an eczema friendly moisturiser please? I have dermatitis and rosacea. Thanks

[@daniaell1291]

Hello. How do i use AHA (lets say from Cosrx)? Do i apply it before toner and other steps or do i apply it alone and let it be for the rest of the night?

[@dru2506]

Obagi almost made my face fall off. This is coming from someone that does multi layer TCA peels at home. My skin looks fantastic though and I'm almost 50.

[@88.vv1]

Im using tretinoin after moisturizer, maybe i should switch

[@nm9412]

You are my favorite KZbin dermatologist!

[@HA13370]

He is a plastic surgeon.

[@meversusthesea]

What do you recommend for pregnant women who can't use some products containing retinol or hydroquinone, etc..? Im struggling with hormonal acne and dont know what's safe to use

[@edanagorham6757]

I had similar concerns as I’m breastfeeding. My baba is 18 months now so I’ve been unable to use good skin care for over 2 years now. I looked up the “bakuchiol” recommended here as I’d never heard of it before, and it’s safe! Also peptides, vitamin C etc

[@rencomet4961]

Question: why don’t you need to use moisturizer in the morning ? Wouldn’t the cleanser dry it out?

[@ck2864]

After using a cleanser in the morning which should go first, the clindamycin or the Garnier vitamin c serum? Not sure which is lighter

[@ck2864]

Is this correct? Morning 1. Gentle Soap/Cleanser 2. Garnier Vitamin C Serum 3. Clindamycin 4. Sunscreen Night 1. Gentle Soap/Cleanser 2. Garnier Vitamin C Serum 3. Clarifying lotion 4. Peel white lotion

[@ireneyaw4814]

I am from Malaysia hv ordered your book through Amazon. They said can only send to by Jan 2024. How do I get the discount voucher to buy Youn products?

[@Francescadbg]

What do I apply first if I want to use 2 serums that is hard to tell which is thinner. The plain no arrive ingredient first or the one with active?

[@alinasirobokova3829]

Dr. Young, what is the best alternative for retinol when pregnant? Thanks!

[@DoctorYoun]

Best to just use simple moisturizers and cleansers.

[@Angel_Undercover]

What about the retinol oil? Which going in first moisturizer or the dry oil retinol?

[@Sadiehoney]

I used to use a lot of product and had horrible acne when I was younger and now that I’m older i don’t use anything at all other then water a light face wash like once a week and water based moisturizer and some sunscreen sometimes and my skin never looked better, other then large pores that I’m guessing is sun damage from tanning 10 years go and age. I wish I would have not tried so hard when I was younger with so many products Make up, tanning.

[@elaine-pm5on]

DID YOU HEAR MEEEE???? LIKE THIS TOPIC IS WHAT I NEED RN. tysm!!!

[@mmwhitede]

Uh - exfoliant….. before, during or after the evening cleanse? ….not after the moisturizer? Thanks!

[@cindypalumbo7503]
