Skincare Minimalism distilled by Dr. Idriss 1. Nighttime routine goal to reset skin. A) Cleanser! B) Target problem with serum for 6-8wks, focus on acne, fine lines, or building collagen. C) Eyes, lightweight OTC retinol with layer of Vaseline on top. D) Moisturizer to glaze and lock in moisturizer, unless hot humid environment use light gel or nothing at all. 2. Morning routine A) wash off residue from night before, over washing can cause more oil production. B) Vitamin C to help sunscreen work better. C) If wearing mask more than 8 hours or live in hot environment, then skip moisturizer and just apply sunscreen. Tip: OBSERVE your skin with a product for 6 to 8 weeks. Simple and beautiful works.

[@meggarstang6761]

I've been using my face routine on the backs of my hands and I can see such a difference. Dark spots are fading, and consistent and more frequent use of moisturizer is making skin look softer and less lined. Oh, and I use sunscreen on my hands, too. Duh! Should have done this long ago and I wouldn't have dang dark spots to fade today.😁

Use the cera ve hydrating cleanser as your soap when you can, it will not strip your skin like regular soaps and always put a moisturizer near all your sinks including kitchen and keep moisturizing. Then use something heavy at night like the La Roche Posay Cicaplast baume

My mother didn’t have a skin care regimen and had beautiful skin…she was one of the lucky ones! She was definitely beautiful! At 50 I went to go see the dermatologist because of melasma. I was started on some prescription creams. I have sort of gotten a skin care regimen. I’m starting to see some definite results. The biggest thing that I have done is to wash off my makeup at night and wear tinted sunscreen everyday. If nothing else, I have slowed the rapid aging that I was seeing. Right now, I don’t know what problems to tackle first and im sort of throwing in everything but the kitchen sink to make things better. I feel like it’s never too late!

[@annikajakobsen6093]

I found this channel 1 week ago, and I've become addicted to your videos. I lost count of how many I've seen. The past week I have: - become aware that most of my skincare contains hyaluronic acid, and made a plan to phase those products out - been looking for glycerin based products - bought a vitamin C serum that I started using in the AM - stopped cleansing my face in the morning - moisturized the s*it out of my face - started using sunscreen every day even though I live in Norway, and we don't have a lot of sun during the winter ..and I swear I can already tell the difference! You are incredible! You make skincare so easy, and so accessible for everybody. I used to think the more expensive a product was, the better it was. I now know that it's not true at all. I now feel like I know what to get, what will work and what will not work. I love that I can buy a good product for a decent price. I have learned so much in such a short time. Thank you, thank you, thank you! You are unique. Never stop doing what you're doing!

[@ofraraveh410]

I just found your videos but I'm 67 years old. I never really learned anything systematic about skincare, just picked up from here & there & obviously that's not the way to go . I wonder if your clear & knowledgeable advice is for women my age, since you don't address sagging skin, losing face fat etc., problems of women my age. Please tell me the truth, as I don't plan on dying yet, I do care about looking as youthful as possible & I'm afraid of face lift surgery (or any surgery, as the ones I had have always failed). Your videos are great! Thanks so much!

[@meggarstang6761]

I wish I had had these videos when I was in college. My mom never believed in skin care and never wore makeup, so I never learned. Now I'm catching up and I so appreciate the easy-to-understand, how-to information. After just a couple of months as a YT nerd 😁 my skin already looks better and the bumps I always had on my chin are gone gone gone! 😊

[@rashmikwatra]

Hi could I ask what product you use as a serum for the bumps? I too have like bimbos inside my skin that sometimes break out

[@ksc743]

@@rashmikwatra I use a cleanser to target the bumps. Something containing either salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide clears the chin within a few days eg Clinique anti blemish solutions or La Roche Posay Effaclar foaming gel. Morning - use gentle cleanser eg cetaphil followed by Vitamin C serum + (moisturizer if necessary) + SPF. Night - use salicylic cleanser, then retinol cream or serum followed by moisturizer. Once your skin has cleared stop using salicylic acid cleanser. Use gentle cleanser am and a richer cleanser at night if you need to remove makeup. Hope this helps.

[@appplezz101]

Shereene has been opening my eyes to the beauty industry and skin care. I noticed something was off when my skin was dry and my sunscreen clung to the dry patches making them white and patchy. I was using HA a lot thinking it was helping. As soon as I did a trial with no HA, immediate difference. My skin actually glowed like I wanted. So now I focus on what I’m treating and removing a lot of actives and serums and focusing on a good gentle acid for my oily blackhead prone area and my tretinoin again. So far my skin feels more hydrated but time will tell. Redness is probably my current issue so I’m trying to find calming ingredients.

Love this routine! This is my exact routine expect a BPO Wash in the morning: AM: BPO Wash, Vitamin C, Sunscreen PM: Double Cleanse, Tretinoin, Moisturizer

[@brankazoric4221]

I think simplicity brings balance in life and I try to apply that to my skincare routine. So, PM is like: cleanse (I never use make up except mascara but l still double clenase), retinol (which l just started recently and my plan is to upgrade to tretinoin eventually), moisturizer, Vaseline around my eyes and on my lips. AM: I just wash my face with water, vitamin C serum, mositurizer, sunscreen. Also, I listen to what my skin is telling me, so sometimes l put Vaseline all over my face before going to bed, after l did my PM routine if my skin is on the dryer side, and sometimes l skip moisturizer in the morning. I exfoliate usually twice a week, sometimes once, using a exfoliating cleanser which l leave on for a few minutes on my face. It is working so great for me and it is all mainly thanks to you and your advices. Thank you very much!

Now my skin is getting better, I have acne scars and uneven skin but, I'm not so terrified to look into the mirror anymore. Funny thing is that I'm having the most simple and easy routine ever. Mornings: Cleanser or just water + sunscreen (if I'm going out)+gel moisturizer. I know I should always apply sunscreen, but I'm getting used to it and trying to find a good one for oily/acne prone skin! Nights: Micellar water (especially if I had makeup on)+ cleanser + gel moisturizer. To me, it seems like the easiest routine is the best. I will eventually add one or two more things to improve my skin because it still needs A LOT of help, but at the same time, I like having this routine🤷🏻‍♀️ Your channel is the best I've found, simple and straight to the point. I'm not a native English speaker, so it's important for me to hear someone talking clearly! 🙂 The Routines' reaction videos are good too, never exaggerated with the reactions and objective. 😊

Hi Dr. Idriss!! You look beautiful as always 😍. Thank you for reminding us of what we need and nothing we don't need for our skin. If it wasn't for you, I would not be where I am now with my skin. I never wore sunscreen and I'm a redhead and burn within 5 to 10 minutes outside in the sun. My family also has a history of skin cancers. I wear sunscreen and reapply aggressively and my skin has never looked better. I also use a retinoid of course for my hormonal acne and my skin has never looked so good. Thank you so much!! I love how nerdy we all are! 🤓♥️

I am 14 and my skin is of dry and sensitive type. I never put on make up. I don’t have a lot of acne but I do get a few breakouts once in a while. It would be very helpful if you could do a video for a suitable skincare for a teen.

[@yvettesuburban6397]

Try a moisturizer with urea. They use this ingredient in Europe and Asia and it is wonderful unfortunately it’s harder to find in the United States.Try Eucerine Urea they sell overseas and I got mine through Amazon it’s wonderful my teenage son uses it because he is a lifeguard and his face gets very dry from the pool. Good luck

I don’t understand starting our calling everyone nerds?

[@nicolequijada762]

I just love your routine I like vitamin c serum in the morning and I feel as long as you wear sunscreen you won't have any discoloration

[@klaudiakadziolka3165]

Thank you so much for educating us! I'm so happy, that found you on KZbin. I have mature rosacea sensitive skin, very picky and it's so hard to find good skincare routine. Now I know it takes time. Looking forward to more! Cheers!

I stopped using a bunch of different products on my skin and literally my skin got so smooth, soft and clear! For my job I literally work over nights so I go in when it's dark outside and during the day I'm in side so I never really have a reason to wear spf. Even when I did, it ALWAYS gave me crazy acne even when I wore chemical sunscreen (it was weird) but I literally just use: Water and aveeno on my skin and it absolutely loves it! I use the nighttime balm for babies in the winter and either the stress relief or the OG lotion during the spring/summer (depending on which one I have on hand) 😊 it may not be the best routine but it's what works for my skin best 😊

[@GDelaCerna]

Love that HA attack. Never been a fan of HA, but Glycerin, yes mam!

[@thembimogala9704]

I started using glycerine together with tretinoin recently, my skin is responding well. No flaking, no drying, no irritation. I wake up to well-moisturized skin.

Focused on hydration and collagen production for over two months now. Consistently, day in, day out. The results are amazing. It is healthier, which is most important

[@alisonnevil7141]

What do you do for collagen production?

[@jasminateodorovic1248]

@@alisonnevil7141 First, I have to say I do nothing without consulting my longtime dermatologist, since each individual's skin is unique, like a fingerprint mark, or dna. Hydration, retinol (over the counter one from La Roche Posey 0.3 per cent) since any other might compromise the skin barrier, Vichy ampule (containing several types of tripeptides, vitamin C and HA) and winter time moisturizer Biodroga MD 24h hydration. Also introduced gentler option for exfoliation, since retinol already does it in its own terms, with amazing 5% Mandelic acid skin prep water by Wishtrend. And as I said, consistency and patience are the key. This combo is for my skin. Might or might not work for yours. I am amazed, both with my routine consistency and the results. P. S. I am from Europe, so the ingredients list often vary from those in other parts of the globe.

[@jamionair]

Hey Dr. Shereene! Love your content. Thank you for the education :) I’m 45, have normal to dry skin and some sun damage on my chest and a few age spots in my face (90s kid - sunbathed like it was a full time job). Also fine lines. Here’s my skincare routine: Nighttime: Double cleanse with face balm & creamy face wash, I apply Tretinoin every other night (I’m new to it) on face, neck chest), LaRoche Posay triple repair moisturizer on face/neck/chest. I also exfoliate w/ Paula’s Choice BHA OR Peter Thomas Roth peel pads once a week. Daytime: Maelove Vitamin C (prefer one without a dropper), then Azelaic Acid, then the same moisturizer as nighttime, then SPF 30+ mineral tinted sunscreen on face/neck/chest. I also exfoliate my body with First Aid Beauty Bump Eraser once or twice a week & recently started using Naturium Retinol body moisturizer. If you have time, can you weigh in on my skincare routine? I’m on a mission to find the optimal routine for anti-aging, Sun spots, and overall glow and plumpness 🤩☺️💁‍♀️ Thx again for your content!💛

You’ve mentioned a few times about not buying products from Amazon, can you do a video or IG post explaining why? I buy A LOT of of my products from Amazon so I’m curious. Thank you and I love you’re videos!

Because Amazon is treating its workers horrible and they ruined many businesses with their aggressively cheap prices.

there's lot's of fakes on amazon! even when you buy from the official brand's store you could get a fake. cause amazon dumps all the 'same' products together regardless of the source.

Thank you for sharing this information/this video, Dr. Idriss. This was the first video from any doctor that truly simplified the process of skin care for me. I hope to see you for a visit soon as I also live/work in NYC. What a blessing your channel has been!

[@LU-ie5eg]

Absolutely LOVE your channel! Thank you for some much needed sagely advice in the world of skincare!! I have a question that has been meandering in my mind for a little while now.. I see a lot of estheticians and people on KZbin doing skincare videos who massage products into their skin in an upward motion (both on their neck as well as face), do you recommend the upward motion while applying products onto skin? I understand the importance of lymphatic massage/lymphatic drainage, but this is something not for that purpose. The upward motion of application seems to be recommended for the goal of “let’s not help the course of gravity”. What do you think? Is there any validity to the upward application of products onto the face and neck? Will that offset the “work of gravity” people seem to be plighting against?

[@grahamgordon7397]

And she told me that, even though she was talking about her scars really bothering her two, that she probably wouldn’t do it. When I woke up I was like the perfect video for her, but I know she won’t listen. Thanks for getting my skincare game on point!! I can really see the difference!
