This is not supposed to be a main moisturizer. I absolutely loved it. I have rosacea and very sensitive problematic skin and this worked for me like nothing else. Everybody is different but I would highly recommend it.

[@Sky10811]

Same! My stable repurchase

[@unklecorky2181]

what moisturizer do you combine this with? Also have Rosacea and very dry skin and am looking for something to not make it worse!

[@Sky10811]

@@unklecorky2181 U can use one of these (depends how ur skin feels): 1) Bepanthen ointment (pm only) 2) SVR Cicavit+ 3) Bioderma atoderm intensive eye (for all face/neck) 4) SVR urea 5% 7 day cream Take Omega 3 supplements and buy humidifier for home if air is dry

Then it shouldn’t tout itself as such

[@bethanymclean2136]

@@Jl2damax On the website it says if you have oily skin it can be used by itself but normal-dry should use a moisturizer on top. I think it's probably a similar consistency to the Krave Great Barrier Relief.

[@victorianguyen3031]

Personally have been using Liquid Gold for 2.5 years, and it's been amazing on my skin, personally. Then again, I have oily/combination and dehydrated skin, and I live in a very tropical climate so the liquid-like texture of it might fit my skin type better than others that have much dryer skin. Really appreciate the depth review.

[@indigo_dreamz]

Do you use it under makeup? My makeup slid off during the day with this☹️

[@Gresaaa]

Liquid gold was wonderful in repairing my skin when my barrier was extremely compromised, but i had to use my avene cream on top to really seal in the great ingredients. If you have dry skin i'd say test it out alone first then maybe add a cream on top. Love this stuff

[@mycenth22]

Hey ;) which Avene cream did you use? Im really interested in stratia atm

[@Gresaaa]

it was products like these that sucked me into the skincare craze: an emulsion before a serum and after using asian toner. seal all of it in with a moisturiser, but don't forget an essence and oil before that. sorry if i sound so negative but i was there, and i was left with more problems than i started with. i've realized how ridiculous it was to waste so much money on dubious claims, when i was fine all along with less stuff on my face. thanks Dr Dray, really appreciate the review and the cheaper alternatives you've offered

[@MamiiMarine]

I agree with Sky 10811, you need to put an occlusive like cereVe on top. It’s more of a serum than moisturizer. It’s great and does exactly what it says it does.

[@sarahstroud6021]

I would like to personally thank you for always being a proponent of more affordable products!! I have two kids and I don’t want to steal from their college fund to have great skin😊I now use retin a and that hydroquinoine cream you recommended every night! In the day I use a good moisturizer and lots of sunscreen! My hubby always asks me if Dr Dray would recommend that before I buy a product 😊

[@DrDrayzday]

glad to hear the savings is going well :)

[@laineybugger]

I just ordered their trial size kit, excited to try it. My skin seems to like sea buckthorn oil, I used to use the Fresh oil but that has fragrance etc

[@KawaaiLeRemy]

I use Stratia LG, I think it is magnificent. Just to say it, LG isn't meant as an occlusive ending step. The maker didn't intend it as that either. You're supposed to layer something over it. It's an asian style product yes. Therefore why a minimalist like you won't like it. So what do you think of Shark Sauce from Holy Snail (the original one), can you review it?

[@ariscotm]

LeRemy yes! This is how I think of it as well. I like the combination of ingredients for my skin and following up with a nice occlusive moisturizer.

[@DrDrayzday]

the "layering of steps" is a great way to sell 10 different bottles of stuff, that could be achieved in one bottle

[@ariscotm]

Dr Dray Ha. Yes, very good point. I do feel like I am "customizing" my skincare regimen with layering but I fully accept that it could just be all placebo.

[@skinsciencebymira]

LeRemy That was the original intent yes. I tested a version for her without silicone back when it was more like a Dr Jart Ceramidin Liquid. But it’s labeled as a moisturizer on her site and described as such. I do think she should make it thicker or remove the silicone and market it as a cream serum or liquid like before.

[@KawaaiLeRemy]

I don't disagree with your statement Dr Dray, haha😄

I wanted to tell you that I’m a beauty dust convert now! Pricey but I swear it makes a difference! And I like the taste not only in coffee but my chai tea as well. :)

[@jenniferlynne9623]

Dr Dray love it! Just wish it wasn’t so pricey!!!! I’m interested in some of their other products too (not the other dusts although I liked the flavor of the sex dust too but have no use for it-lol). Specifically anything that helps with stress. Once again, now my father is in the hospital and they just moved him to ICU this morning. Oh and I got a prescription for Retin-A. I love the adapolene but want to see what the Retin-A does for my fine lines!

[@trevorcanty3394]

Hey Dr Dray! You may have a mostly female viewership, but if you could make a video about beard care, that would be amazing. All the beard oils and cleansers out there are full of fragrances and a myriad of unnecessary ingredients, and I'm not sure I should be using hair products on my face skin either. I think you would get a lot of thanks from some frustrated beard growers who want to keep their skin underneath the beard healthy, as well as the beard.

[@TrankDuo7]

Can you make a video about Azelaic Acid next please?

[@Pachabel]

I found this to be an outstanding product and would highly recommend it based upon my experience. I have always had highly sensitive skin, intolerant to many well known and respected products... Cerave products for example would cause stinging to my face. Stratia Liquid Gold has been my holy grail for 3 years... For me it has been truly tried and tested. My skins moisture barrier improved dramatically to a point I was able to introduce other products such as niacinamide and finally tretinoin... unthinkable before I began using this product. I layer Stratia, then tretinoin followed by Illiyoon ceramide Ato. A brilliant combination I have found with definite long term positive results. Your video review I would highly expect could not be comparable to someone who suffers from long term skin sensitivity resulting in significant moisture barrier damage. Individuals with this condition would obviously be able to better review the benefits of this product as opposed to those who do not. Obvious and visible results for myself occurred after one month and continued, then expediated after the incorporation of niacinamide. It should not be expected to be used as a stand alone moisturizer. The benefits of using this product have been widely established by the many anecdotal positive testimonials. As you said... the basic ingredients are good... Cholesterol, fatty acids and ceramides.

[@MV-ns9le]

Thank you sweety for responding! I will buy two of them, one for me and one for my daughter. Thank you again hon, loves ya!

[@DrDrayzday]

:)

[@isabellegrenier6047]

I found this cream to be very hydrating and rich. I don’t understand how you think it’s not moisturizing! It is liquid but it covers very well and is perfect to use after tretinoin.

[@Jl2damax]

Isabelle Grenier she clearly said she doesn’t have a problem with it and that it’s only missing occlusives which is 100% true. Moisturizers need emollients, humectants, and occlusives to be 100% effective. It can still work but ultimately you want to prevent water loss which is what occlusives do

[@aprilsantiano3816]

Thanks Dr. Dray for saving my money. I have been using Cerave products and no need to use these over hyped products in the skin care community. Have a great day :) xo

[@Sky10811]

Try the Stratia liquid gold and u will never regret. Use it under ur sunscreen.

[@roxannee3886]

Hi, Dr. Dray! I hope you will be able to try the Biore UV Aqua Rich Watery BB Cream 3D Effect SPF50 PA+++. It claims to be fragrance free. 😊

[@alltheketoladies209]

I mean, it's called 'Liquid' gold, so it's not hiding it's wateriness. This is one of my holy grail products actually. My skin loves it.

[@hammypie]

AlltheKeto Ladies what did it do for your skin exactly? If it’s holy grail it better be lightening spots or reversing wrinkles...

[@jakeisbeast511]

Dr. Dray, Your videos and information are super and so appreciated. Am i understanding correctly that you feel that the best thing for skin is moisturizing while your skin is still damp and sunscreen, suncreen, suncreen for the daytime and then moisturize at night after you wash your face (while skin is damp so as not to lose moisture) and then air dry, apply renin-a. All the serums, and claims that vitamin C make, eye creams, vitamin C ...and all the other topicals really aren't doing much? Keeping it simple is the best thing for our skin and aging? Again, thank you for all your invaluable information.

[@DrDrayzday]

correct

[@Toffeepotato0987]

Hi👋🏻 What do you think is better stratia liquid gold between or the GBR from kravebeauty? Since both of them is for restoring the skin barrier🧐🤔

I highly recommend people try Stratia gold, I've been using the same bottle since April 25 2018 and I'm just now running out. It helped fully repair and heal my messed up moisture barrier. I use 2-3 squirtz alongside a gel moisturizer such as Neutrogena watery essence or Paulas choice moisturizing gel and then rub them together and on my face. 8/10 product, highly affordable and recommended imo.

[@DrDrayzday]

Glad to hear you like it! Hope you are having a nice weekend

I jumped on the Stratia Liquid Gold wagon, and my skin reacted angry. I think the founder had good intentions, but the ingredients list is too confused. My skin was red for days after 1 use of the SLG.

[@Auggie145]

Hi! Can you do an updated review on Stratia?

[@maggieprice357]

So early! Dr. Dray, could you do an honorable mention in one of your videos talking about a beauty hack I've read about? I read people are using Desitin as a spot treatment for acne because of the high concentration (I think it's 20%) of zinc in it. I also read a blog where someone slept in zinc-only sunscreen and used it as a treatment product. I personally would not do that but the Desitin thing I might would try. I know it's kind of wacky but I thought it would be an interesting topic. I see a lot of these weird beauty hacks online, like sleeping with slathered petroleum jelly on your face.

[@juliebarnes7425]

I’ve never tried this! Thanks for weighing in on it! Sounds like a nice moisturizer Right now I’m on Lancôme skincare that I’m loving!!! Take care Dr Dray

[@DrDrayzday]

its not bad; pretty light

[@sturkfeld]

Hi Dr. Dray. You have answered by thoughts in this video! I was going to ask you what you would recommend that is cruelty free to seal in moisture after washing the face. I use the Stratia Liquid Gold and agree with you about the consistency of it. Too runny. I will apply the liquid gold (to use it up) after washing my face then apply the Ceramedx Restoring lotion or the Ceramedx, Ultra Moisturizing Cream which might be even better before my sunscreen. Hope this isn't overkill. LOL Your videos are so valuable! You always provide great information!

[@DrDrayzday]

i love that ceramedex lotion :)

[@seeambergo08]

I love your video! Thank you so much for your input and recommendations. ❤️

[@phoebiqui]

But Stratia LG is a serum, not a moisturizer. As far as I now, it is like vitamins to your diet, not your main dish, hehe. The downside is that it is an added step in a very basic routine. Loved your review anyway. Nice tip on the green tea extract.

[@DrDrayzday]

serum in nothing more than watered down moisturizer...these ingredeints in a good moisturizer are better than they are in a watered down moisturizer with an added moisturizer on top to "seal it in" ...this just forces you to buy two things that easily are already in one effective product

[@hammypie]

Dr Dray AMEN! thank goodness I learned this important money-saving tip from your channel 😀

[@elisseperelez4888]

What moisturizer would you recommend other than the ones mentioned above that have ceramides and barrier repairing ingredients in them over the LG?

[@hammypie]

Thank you SO much for this honest review. There is ridiculous amount of hype over this on Reddit but I was still skeptical. Would you say the Freederm gel is a better vehicle for niacinamide than the liquid gold?

[@DrDrayzday]

the gel is more moisturizing than this

[@hammypie]

Dr Dray awesome I just received Freederm in the mail, it’s cheaper than and not a watery mess like Sharksauce. I also used a full bottle of Paula’s Choice 10% niacinamide (straight up water!!!) and it was expensive, with no results.

[@dr.julienarbor6367]

Hi Dr. Dray! Thanks for another great video. I briefly used the Hada Labo Plumping Gel Cream many years ago when Asian Beauty was just getting started. It was OK, but mainly a thick hyaluronic acid cream and I never bought it again. After watching your skincare routine with Retin-A and thinking about how often you use it, I thought about giving it a try again. When I looked at it on Amazon, I was shocked to see all the additional ingredients that are now in it; including ceramides and collagen, arginine, squalene, etc. etc. They have completely reformulated it since I used it and I’m definitely going to try it again. No wonder you like it so much! I’m curious...are there any known benefits of applying collagen topically? Also, there’s a Hada Labo Gokujun Premium Hyaluronic Solution that has 5(!) different types of hyaluronic acid (the Plumping Gel has 3) that are supposed to provide hydration at various depths of the skin due to the difference in their molecular weights. What are your thoughts about this? It’s getting rave reviews. Thanks for indulging my inquisitive mind! 😁

[@DrDrayzday]

It is handy under moisturizers

[@MS-gi3hc]

I like liquid gold. It’s super moisturizing for me, so don’t recommend in summer months. Perfect for winter!

[@luisaperales7057]

Also, I noticed that in one of your last videos you use a regular sunscreen on your lips (as opposed of the ones designed specifically for lips). Is any kind of sunscreen safe to use on the lips or are some dangerous because of the possibility of swallowing bits of it? I currently use on my face the Elta MD Clear and the Murad sunscreens and was wondering if I should apply them on my lips or not.

marula is an indigenous fruit to countries in africa and is used there is wines and foods....there is not the data to support the internet hype for this ingredient, and in my opinion we should leave the marula fruit trees alone for the people and animals of these countries to enjoy rather than pumping out a bunch of cosmetics for profit

sophie sabbycat I love Youth to the People Superfood Air Whipped Moisture Cream. Green tea, kale, spinach, sunflower oil, hyaluronic acid. The ingredient list was just recently updated to include "fragrance" but company said they are launching internationally and one of the oils (I think it's Brassica) is considered a fragrance in Europe.

[@dr.julienarbor6367]

I’ve seen people doing DIY matcha (green tea) masks by mixing matcha with various clays or creams. I wonder if a DIY matcha mist would help with pores? I know Mario Badescu has a facial mist with green tea, but it has other ingredients in it (and probably fragrance).

[@karaleonor9638]

Hello! I have ordered the tony moly green tea cream and I think it’s fragrance free ( my doesn’t like fragrance at all!) I will tell you if it’s a good one as I didn’t receive it yet. The matcha tea mask is a great idea! I DIY clay and glycerin masks but I didn’t think of adding matcha tea. Thanks for the tip ! Have a great day

[@dr.julienarbor6367]

Thanks for the information about the Tony Moly cream. I checked out Amazon and they have a whole line of green tea products. I’d love to hear how the cream is! I did some reading on topical applications of green tea and all its benefits...sounds pretty amazing. They’re even researching it for preventing skin cancers! I’d be happy with tighter pores and a bit of anti-aging! 😂

[@karaleonor9638]

Dr. Julien Arbor sounds great ! I think we should give a try to a DIY green tea mask, shouldn’t we? Instead of using clay I will put matcha instead The tony moly green tea cream should arrive at the end of may 🤞I will let you know :) I have also checked out some green tea creams on amazon but I was a little bit overwhelmed by the multiple choices and we must pay attention to the ingredients right ? So I’ve picked up the tony moly one Btw I have also ordered one from farm stay but I don’t even bother opening it, there is fragrance !!! Very disappointed Have a great day !

[@DrDrayzday]

:) i dont use body wash

[@michelylopes6128]

Can you talk about extractions at the spa? Are extractions good for our skin?

[@tasmiarahman712]

Thank you so much for always being honest

[@DrDrayzday]

Thanks!

[@jackiemarsh2470]

Great video!! Enjoyed it very much!! Thank you as always!! Enjoy the rest of your Day!! HAPPY MONDAY!!!

[@DrDrayzday]

Thanks! Happy Monday!

My skin either loves or despises oils... coconut oil is a no-go for my face but shea butter has caused no problems...

[@DrDrayzday]

coconut oil can be problematic for some people with sensitivity to it

[@karaleonor9638]

I think using coconut oil as a make up remover is a wonder and as you rinse it off , it ca be a good option Have a great day!

[@ginkgothestink-o6949]

Céline Lara I’d rather play it safe and keep it off of my face !

[@karaleonor9638]

Court Fool yes I understand, some prefers keep it away but may be you can give it a try. Did you use it as a rinse off product ? But, anyway Shea butter is great too ! I use it to seal my other products in nighttime Enjoy your time!

[@ginkgothestink-o6949]

Céline Lara no... not gonna bother... I already have incredibly acne prone skin and I’m not gonna risk it. Even if I do try to rinse it off I doubt I’ll get it all... probably end up with zits around my hairline n’ all that. I’m paranoid that way. You have a good one

[@GalacticEgg]

Your videos are excellent. No hype products, no far-fetched claims, science-based etc.. I can vouch for squalane not helping much with acne btw lol. Random...but short hair would look super beautiful and fey on you! Have you ever tried a short cut?

[@DrDrayzday]

Thanks!

[@palladio7476]

I finally received my order of the CareCera face/body lotion from Rohto Japan and it is so good! It feels more like a balm than a lotion but it is very soothing and makes a great moisture barrier. Wish it we easier to find. Cheers!

[@DrDrayzday]

i need to try that one! That mentholatum skin aqua uv milk is awesome btw

[@palladio7476]

Dr Dray I loved the Skin Aqua Moisture Milk this winter and am really loving the gel formula now. It just may be my new fav. www.yesstyle.com/en/mentholatum-skin-aqua-uv-super-moisture-gel-pump-spf-50-pa-140g/info.html/pid.1060919650 Hugs!!!

[@zoerenee100]

Dr. Dray just want to double check.....so if a tube of mineral sunscreen stays in a hot car, will it maintain effectiveness? Thank you! I thought I was diligent with sunscreen before Dr. Dray, but now I'm totally obsessed!!😁

[@DrDrayzday]

i cant say for sure as no one does spf testing before and after hot car incubation

[@hip9429]

Hi Dr. Dray....I found you yesterday and am in the process of binge watching your videos which are awesome! I had a question and wasn't sure where to ask it, but I was wondering if you recommended a product to regrow eyebrow hair? I had a bad wax job a few years back and then way over-plucked my eyebrows trying to correct it and now I have terrible bald spots where the hair never grew back (I'm in my mid-40's, not sure if that's a factor). I've heard some of the eyelash serums also regrow eyebrows- didn't know if that was true and wanted to get your thoughts?? Thanks and truly appreciate your advice and how informative you are!!

[@aliedapezek8810]

hip9429 The eyebrow growth rapid brow works fantastic! Takes a few months but mine are new outstanding, never better. Over plucked for 20+ years

[@DrDrayzday]

minoxidil (rogaine); latisse works (eyelashes and brows)...the rest dont have the data of latisse

[@den8127]

Love your honest reviews! Dr Dray what about Squalene as an oral supplement?

[@DrDrayzday]

i would not get excited about that

[@Am-kt9ml]

Do you have a video discussing the difference between the most common skincare acids and how to choose the correct one for you? Are certain acids more beneficial for certain skin types and concerns or do they all do the same thing? (I think I remember seeing videos for each acid but I don’t remember seeing an all in 1 video where you discus them all, compare them to one another and their differences)

[@DrDrayzday]

yes

[@TC-gc5rt]

Nice review, thanks! I wonder, do you feel this lotion is worth using as a precursor to lotion given the potential skin benefits?

[@DrDrayzday]

Thanks! no

[@TC-gc5rt]

Dr Dray Good to know, thanks! I cannot use it but was thinking I would pass it along.

[@skinsciencebymira]

Tina Hu I love using it mixed with another heavier moisturizer, it’s really soothing. Dr Dray has a very particular texture and thickness she likes and often passes on products for being “too runny.” And that’s ok, everyone has their preferences! I love her breakdown on the ingredients, that’s what is important to me and what I get out of her videos. But my skin much prefers more liquidy products personally.

[@Shilpa_Sharma23]

Hi, I just saw that it has Diazolidinyl Urea as a preservative in its ingredient list. Diazolidinyl Urea belongs to an infamous family of formaldehyde-releasers. Is that a harmful ingredient? Can someone please answer if they know about this?

[@mariannemaxwell7342]

What is your opinion on medical grade skincare. I am almost 70 and am interested in a good skincare regimen that works for my aging skin. I have used a Skinceutical sunscreen for almost 20 years and am very pleased with it. I have heard you mention Obagi and would like to know if there are others out there. I prefer a very natural look and prefer not to wear foundation. However my skin does have some uneven color and texture. Thank you, Marianne

[@DrDrayzday]

overpriced, but not bad per se

[@Isabelx13]

For those that put something on after liquid gold, what do you use?

[@anthrogal19]

I looked into rosehip oil and couldn't find good data supporting the claims for its being rich in antioxidants. The fruit has them but the oil might not have but trace amounts and Vit. A was only observed in oil of one species, which is not the species used in most products. I was surprised to learn this, which is why I like to rely on the science not the circulated myths or rumors of products. Retinol is weak, but in comparison, rosehip oil's supposed profile of retinoic acid (which again would need to be tested because it would vary between species and product) is almost nothing. The fatty acids seem to be the more important components of this oil.

[@mariabad84]

Hello Dr Dray...I'm a new subscriber. I wanted to know if you could review the skin care from the brand It Cosmetics. I'm curious to know your opinion on the ingredients in their skin care. Please. Thank you!

[@tbonitabeauty]

Thanks Dr Dray - I like to use this to cancel redness a little 😂 I just stick bw watery things and very occlusive things and it helped my tret skin

[@earlybirdworms]

cera ve is terrible on sensitive skin

[@lynnettechapman327]

A youtuber spoke on her video about medical grade products recently. Basically, she said that only medical grade anti aging products work and the over the counter products don't and to stop wasting our money. You have been great to show drugstore products but do they really work long term? Medical grade anti aging really isn't in my budget so I always appreciate your drugstore suggestions. Can you tell us what medical grade products your employer sells? Are there ones that work well and more affordable. Meaning not $125 per bottle. Thank you very much!

[@DrDrayzday]

that is not correct; the exception, i believe, is with glycolic acid products, in which case I prefer glytone and neostrata

[@lynnettechapman327]

Thank you so much! You always give us great hope!!!

[@nehalpatel8346]

Dr. Dray, marathon watching your videos and catching up 😊 Congrats on crossing 100K subscribers -- Woo-Hoo !!! (I joined back when your channel had around 9,000). Great review ! Thanks once again for saving me $$ 😉 Btw, with the increased humidity upon us here in H-town, any recs on keeping the oily t-zone under control ??!! Have a great week ! 😊

[@DrDrayzday]

Hope you are doing well! The humidity is creeping up. The zapzyt 2% salicylic acid face wash to the t-zone areas can help cut down on sebum. S

[@MV-ns9le]

Hola Dr Dray, what do you recommend for cleansers that exfoliate? I've been using St Ives Apricot scrub but in one of your last videos I believe I heard you say it's a no no! I have stopped using it and need to know what I should be using? I'm in my 50's. Thank you in advance

[@DrDrayzday]

ditch that scrub; zapzyt bha face wash, avoiding around the eyes/nose/mouth, and follow w/ fragrance free moisturizer

[@peaceandlove9701]

Thankyou Dr. Dray! I've been hoping you would review LG. I've used it and liked how it soothed my skin. My only gripe is I wished it were a bit thicker, more cream like bc I needed something on top. I'm really interested to try the Ceremedix lotion and Cosrx Rice mask...how do those 2 compare?

[@DrDrayzday]

they are better than the lg...ceramedex is thicker than the rice mask

[@peaceandlove9701]

Dr Dray thankyou!

[@healthylivingfromatoz2989]

Thanks for the review, I was wondering about this product. Love your videos, switched my son to cerave cleanser and then I have him use the vanicream lotion on his wet face and neck and his eczema has gotten so much better. Plus he is a teenager so the less you ask him to do the more likely he is to do it,lol! Have a great day!

[@DrDrayzday]

[@sweetteawhimsy3998]

Once again ... I’m smarter than before I watched this video! #lovemydrdray❤️

[@jamieespinosa1643]

Do you have a recommendation for a good quality 100% jojoba oil for the face? ❤️

[@DrDrayzday]

no

[@jeanphillips2638]

Jamie, I have used the Jojoba oil sold at Trader Joes before. Just a suggestion as I think the price is good.

[@sams517]

Jamie Espinosa look at the ones on etsy, they’re really clean

[@jamieespinosa1643]

bogey Bognar I find them slightly impersonal and maybe a little rude but I’m sure it is not intended

[@Selebrian87]

Mountain Rose Herbs has excellent quality oils, including jojoba oil.

[@y0utub3_liz]

Any thoughts on emu oil?

[@jennk62378]

Thank you so much for this review. Sigh this was the truth I needed but not wanted :). Question: would the liquidy consistency make the cerimides and cholesterol get into your skin better than a thicker lotion or is it about the same?

[@DrDrayzday]

no

[@MPay-mh2jt]

Hi Dr. Dray, I have always mixed jojoba oil with my nightime moisturizer as I find that it helps to stop water from evaporating away throughout the night. Is it okay to do this while using differin? Thanks!

[@DrDrayzday]

yes

[@opal5149]

Can u review the best green tea moisturizers?

[@kristinas5714]

Opal Omg the best green tea moisturizer is hands down by Dr. Cynthia Bailey !!!!!

[@afic10]

Please review Aquation, it’s so affordable and huge!

[@blanrodjim]

afic10 have you tried it? Is it good for skin?

[@thaliac2063]

What product do you recommend to repair my skin barrier ?

[@JessieBanana]

Does green tea have to be specifically formulated for skin care or is it something you could steep on your own and apply like a toner before moisturizer? I drink a lot of green tea, so if I can kill two birds with one stone I am all for it.

[@DrDrayzday]

i have only seen studies using green tea containing moisturizers

[@franciscofe1761]

I tried the stratia liquid gold it burned my face will not use it again

[@caceresld]

dr. dray ive been on differin for 4 months and i like the results, to moisturize i use cerave pm on a wet face but i feel that i need more, is it okay to layer on some jojoba oil before the differin?

[@shashashasha4239]

Hey doc! I have oily skin and prefer a lighter texture in the summertime, do you think this would be suitable for me?

[@DrDrayzday]

i think so, yes

[@trudymoore6158]

Thanks for the review...what do you think about the STRTIA soft touch AHA....I have sensitive skin,,,

[@DrDrayzday]

would not use

[@NadineSjuhada]

Dr Dray why not?

[@drsakshisargam]

Dr. Dray- I see that you didn’t list hempseed oil in the description box. I know there are so many carrier oils out there and it’s not possible for you to list all of them. But I am curious to know your opinion on hempseed oil usage for sunscreen removal? I remove it with a gentle face wash afterwards. Thanks!

[@DrDrayzday]

not much data for that, which is why it is not included in the list

[@drsakshisargam]

Dr Dray - thank you 😊

[@susanbochy9657]

Enjoyed:) Thanks for the review!!! Happy Wednesday;)

[@susanbochy9657]

Happy Tuesday;)

[@giulialocampo4014]

Hi Dr Dray. Have you heard of a cream named honeyskin ultimate face and body cream. Can you please do a review on this cream. Thank you.
