You will see discount codes next to almost all products-I discover a product I love and I work hard to get a discount code from the brand. This is NOT SPONSORED. Most links are affiliate.

(About 5x a week) There are so many options for LED- I have an entire blog on LED that details all of this and the science of LED www.pennsmithskincare.com/post/why-everybody-should-be-using-red-nir-led-on-their-skin-with-before-afters I have been following this up immediately using my Ziip Halo with the Golden Gel and just rinsing off my face when I am done (not cleansing, just rinsing) ZIIP HALO Microcurrent Device go.shopmy.us/p-1593091 code PENNZIIP for a discount The next thing I am doing is my acidify step- I am choosing either my Ordinary Lactic Acid 5% amzn.to/44zeagb or Medik 8 Press & Glow go.shopmy.us/p-1555905 Please note...I don't wait much between this step and the next step but IF I were to use a stronger acid (let's say P50 or some stronger glycolic) I WOULD wait a little bit before putting on a peptide based moisturizer. I try to avoid hydrolysis (breaking the peptide up in to it's amino acids) but I am not stressing on this and I don't think you should either, especially with relatively gentle acids like the Ordinary and/or the Medik8. So next is my bathroom mixology step :) I am taking my Sukoyaka Suhada Urea Essence amzn.to/46EQoRW and my OneSkin Face www.oneskin.co/discount/PENN15 (code Penn15 saves 15%) and I am mixing them up in the palm of my hand and I am applying the concoction all over my face, neck and décolleté.

I like your content Penny!

[@supermoo1250]

Do you wash off night time skin care at all before using the LED? Mine says to use with clean, dry skin, but so many of my products say that, and I hate letting my skin dry out.

[@PENNSMITHSKINCARE]

It depends on the nighttime skincare- if I used something like an ointment (some heavy occlusive) I would wash before. But usually the skin is perfectly good with the leftover skincare from the night before 💙

[@AlexOnEarth777]

Penny I just wanted to thank you for all of your skincare advice over the years. I've gotten into so many different things because of you, like microneedling, fulvic acid, copper peptides, growth factors, the Queen 7-in-1, etc. My skin really has never looked better and it wouldn't be the same without you. Your insight and your opinions are so valuable to me, sometimes I wish I had you on speed dial haha. I just hope you know how appreciated you are

I just rewatched this video the other day and then went searching for phyosphingosine in my products other than drmtlgy needless serum-good old cerave moisturizing cream has it! Thanks Penny for passing along your knowledge to us!

[@db-gb5xi]

In her video on ingredients that work better together, dr alexis stephens talks about moisturizers with cholesterol, fatty acids and ceramides and the phytosphingosine. She recommends a few but the more affordable one would be the cerave skin renewal night cream and even the skinfix triple lipid (the original and not the gel). There's also a prescription cream as well.

I feel like I need to listen to this one twice. Lots of good info.

[@nanekkii]

I’m obsessed with the Sleep Serum. I agree. I see a difference in the am. I just received the DRMTLY product today! Can’t wait to try together!

[@dianejaneclayton]

LOVE the tip of mixing a lightweight hydrating toner with thicker stronger serums and've been doing it for years and years, but with the Pyunkang Yul Essence Toner... the luxurious slippy-ness of it makes all my serums spread like a dream so I can use less and they last longer not to mention sink in deeper for better faster results... I make my husband do the same with their Mist Toner, the spray top of which I switched with the shake top of a used up Essence Toner so he can shake a few drops in with each step of his routine... game changer!

[@lisadeangelo244]

Hi Penny, I hope you see this! I was hoping you would consider a video on how to care for your skin post face lift, bleph, laser and other similar procedures. You shared your own surgery journey and I followed similar suit. I know I can't be the only one! I would value knowing good skin care protocol, when to restart actives and what devices to keep in the routine moving forward. Thank you in advance! Thank you for your devotion to skin care and education!

You use things so much more carefully. I use the DRMTLGY Needless and use a full dropper and douse it on! You are so right about your essence. I purchased it last fall and splash it on carelessly and it’s still half full. I absolutely love it. If you comment readers haven’t tried it yet, you are really missing out on a special experience!

I finally ordered the Dermelect Night serum and it’s in transit. Excited to get it, and I already have the DRMTLGY cream you use along with it. I’ve been using the Needle-Less Serum forever. I keep thinking I’ll go without because it’s pricey, but at this point, I’m afraid to stop. 🤷‍♀️ I just wait for a good sale and stock up. Thanks for sharing your routine with us ! Your skin looks so good with & without makeup ! ☺️💜☺️

[@PENNSMITHSKINCARE]

Thank you so much! I understand about the Needleless... but it's just so good! I also wait until its on sale to stock up or just so you know you can always get 20% off at Drmtlgy with code Penn 🥰 there is no reason to ever pay full price if you don't have to!

[@jrbagnall34]

I think that I ask this every time, but do you still use your droplette? I just did my cosmetic microneeding with my Reviv growth factors. I found you around two years ago. We are both the same age. The big difference between us is that I have very,very oily skin still. It does help with the wrinkles. I use the dermmelect self esteem serum since I received it in my Dermstore box one month. I so wish that I could afford the oneskin, but it is not in my budget. I finally took the plunge and ordered DRMTLGY. Oh, my goodness. I love everything I have purchased so far. Especially, the needless serum. I thank you for all the time and effort that you put in everyone of your videos. Thank you, and may God bless your family and you with all his love ❤️

[@iwillstom]

Woo I’m gonna need to watch this a couple times to get it right. 😂 I have a lot of the same products already, just need to map out a routine. I get overwhelmed with too many options, then get a bit of analysis paralysis.

[@PENNSMITHSKINCARE]

Really just think of lowering or keeping the PH low and then replenishing with a moisturizer that has ceramides, cholesterol and phytosphingosine (if you have one). That’s the main one two punch 💙💙💙

[@grnddesign]

When you cocktail the urea essence with the OneSkin, you could also spray the fulvic mineral solution into the cocktail to help drive everything further into the skin

Hey Penn can you please do a video about skincare for those on accutane and in general, about mini doses of accutane for ageing,i think it's very interesting. I saw a video by one dermatologist and she was suggesting to consider accutane once weekly as she have seen amazing results for her patients over time

Hi Penny - wonderful video, as always! I've read in multiple places that peptides should not be used with acids because the acids break the bonds in the peptides making them less effective. I've been keeping my acids in the am, then peptides in the PM with tret. Is there a resource with differing information? I'd love to be able to switch things around and use my peptides twice a day!

Guess what? I am starting this “duo” tonight! Of course I already have those 2 products since Penny has recommended them before😉. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge with us😍

[@bibicheknauf4163]

Penny, in a previous video, you told us that when you use DERMELECT Self Esteem Sleep Serum, you wait a couple of hours before putting any other products. Do you also do that when using “the duo” system? I did tonight😍

[@PENNSMITHSKINCARE]

@bibicheknauf4163 I don’t really wait for the soothe and recovery. I was waiting before putting on the peptide night cream bc I wanted to avoid hydrolysis with the peptides (breaking the peptides up in to their amino acids….honestly not that big of a deal anyway). Now with the soothe and recovery it’s more about the lipids etc so I can layer them right up 💙 If you choose to wait a little bit that’s totally ok too, whatever works best for you! 😊 I do think I thought (and might still a little) that waiting gives the acids more time to do some work- so even with the soothe and recovery I’d consider waiting. But all in all I don’t stress (and I don’t think you should) on timing- it doesn’t seem to effect the outcome 💙

[@bibicheknauf4163]

[@pamelastevens8006]

I love the idea of the essence with One Skin. I use One Skin Face morning and evening so to make it last longer sounds great.

I put my sukihada ( no idea how to spell it rn) into a old spray toner bottle an I love it! It is always my first step before eveeeeerything. Definitely helps make other more expensive serums spread, that way I can take it all the way down my neck an even started doing the girls! 😉 😂

[@sarahseiler5020]

I don't know why, but I just didn't like my skin after using ZIIP. It seemed to make me appear to have less facial volume. I work with people and talk a lot, so do you suppose that my facial muscles are already too tight, and ZIIP worsened that? Someone suggested myolift for muscle stretching but I'm worried I'll just see similar results! As far as the acidify and lipid replenishing, I'll be on that! Thanks Penny 💗

[@PENNSMITHSKINCARE]

The GX is really great- and honestly very little changed with the halo. You are using their conductivity products and they’re drying you out? Are you washing after? You should watch my halo video and my video with Melanie (founder of ziip and incredible esthetician) then you wouldn’t feel bad about your GX! It’s an awesome device 💙

Hi Penn - I have the the self-esteem neck cream but haven’t worked it into my routine yet. I have a couple questions - the Beauty Sleep Serum - do you take that down onto the neck on those nights you use it? I noticed you are using the neck cream a couple mornings a week in this routine. It also has aha/bay but lesser strength? And wondered if that was what you used instead of the Sleep Serum for necks.

[@PENNSMITHSKINCARE]

I do use the droplette-but honestly it is hit and miss. I really only use the collagen capsules (those have always been my favorites) and when I do remember to use it I am SO happy with my skin. I probably remember 2 times a week (because once I have done anything else it's too late....I always want to do the droplette first...So i will do (for example) my oneskin/essence step and THEN remember the Droplette and it's too late!!). That said, it is one of the BEST pick me ups ever- the collagen capsule I mean :)

[@carrielassiter8455]

@@PENNSMITHSKINCARE thank you for this reply!! I will keep it in mind for the collagen capsules. And I guess since the Ziip “pushes” skincare in, that is a one-two punch that may make the Droplette less necessary. But still, I get that they provide different services for the skin/facial muscles. The Droplette can deliver things that the Ziip can’t. I am so intrigued by all of this and how we actually have the power to make so much difference with our skin and bodies.💖

[@sandymoran5077]

Penny thank you for all your knowledge. I just started watching your channel & have 1 question, why do you put your moisturizer on in AM before your serums (azaleic acid, Needle-less serum) on top of the OneSkin??

[@MEF7]

Good question!

[@julufitness7349]

Such a great video! One question: do you feel the Naturium Azelaic Topical Acid is personally better for your skin than the Emulsion? I have skin similar to yours (and sensitive to Vit C) so was just curious if the vitamin C in the topical acid would be too much for me since I already use a different vit c serum. Not sure if I should try the Emulsion first since it doesn't have any. Thank you so much for all you do!!! xoxo

[@PENNSMITHSKINCARE]

So the emulsion is a tiny bit less hydrating (on my skin) but I actually think the azelaic acid in that version is more effective. The serum is a derivative so it’s more gentle but I think it may also be a bit weaker. Some may say that the derivative is better because it’s even less irritating but I think it’s just a matter of preference. I can (and do) use both- so if you want to elimate that ingredient I’d go for the emulsion! 💙

[@aleiaaragonerwin5172]

Hi Penny! I was wondering have you used any products from the brand Plated? I’ve been hearing about their amazing technology and wanted to hear your opinion. I watched the formulator’s on a zoom call with a Dr and it blew my mind with their technology there using with these exosomes. I know exosomes can be a debated issue, however I know the Korean love them! I have used them in meso therapy and I love them!

[@PENNSMITHSKINCARE]

Plated is on my radar, yes!! The only thing that gets me is that the scientists I’ve asked about exosomes say that they are quite unstable and require very cold environment storage to stay active. So I wonder about them in a bottle that’s not kept very cold. I need to do a lot more research though bc the science is amazing!

[@Cgirlonmoon1]

Do you also take all these down your neck? And still would use dermelect neck cream last?

[@Misskitty15]

Penny, have you ever done a review on Nira? I don't recall one & notice you don't use it but you don't have wrinkles either! Lol. Anyway, would love to know your take on it!❤

[@antoniettabonfigliovetere1195]

Do you also use vitamin C in am?

[@karlarentz7694]

I am using SkinCeuticals on 2nd bottle I have age spots but can't see that big of a difference for what im paying. Help please❤

[@tinaf.7941]

Hi Penny, would exfoliation with a silicone device remove dead skin and provide the same results as the acid combo? If not, I have the paula's choice bha acid product and TO's Glycolic acid at home, can I combine the two to get the same results? As you can tell, I'm trying to save some money by working with what I already have at home. 🤣 Thanks!

[@Gallinamarta69]

I tried the night routine today!🎉. Penn your hair are gorgeous… can you share your hair care routine and products?❤

[@Nunu-ke8ne]

Which vit c is good for sensitive skin?

[@christinacooper3675]

Penny, do you not do any wash on the ams that you do your led, zipp, then acidify, then ceramide replenishment routine?

[@PENNSMITHSKINCARE]

No wash on those days, no 💙

[@nancypadilla3509]

I use .10 or .20 vit c from timeless and then needless serum from DRMTLGY. Is that okay because of the cooper and vit c.

[@PENNSMITHSKINCARE]

I wouldn’t use those two right after each other. You could wait a bit between the two (or move one of them to the other end of your routine) 💙

[@bellezamamacita]

Thank you for sharing such good information. I will definitely this routine. Would you know if LED light is safe to use with Melasma. ? I thought red light is not. ? Thank you again.

[@PENNSMITHSKINCARE]

Well you have to watch out for NIR light. It has some heat and that can trigger melasma. And truly anything can trigger melasma so I can’t guarantee that just red LED won’t. It is one of the biggest skincare mysteries to me. LED doesn’t bother my pigment at all and I am VERY sensitive to pigment, but I’ve heard too many people say they got a bunch of unwanted pigment from LED so I’ll never say it’s not possible. I wish I had a more straightforward answer 🫤

[@bellezamamacita]

@@PENNSMITHSKINCARE 😫😭so frustrating dealing with Melasma.!! Thank you. You’re information is greatly appreciated. 🤗

[@stephanievalentino47]

Great video! Can't wait to try some of these products. I was wondering the night you use the Sleep Serum how many night's do you wait till you use retinol?

[@PENNSMITHSKINCARE]

I use the sleep serum one night then a couple nights of retinoids etc then another sleep serum night. I do sometimes just do a ton of moisture one night here and there to just take a break from actives. That depends on my skin 😊

[@stephanievalentino47]

​@@PENNSMITHSKINCAREthank you! Love watching your videos. I'm Learning so much from watching these videos. Thank you for everything you do ❤

[@marionallen2222]

I’m so glad I just picked up the Soothe and Recovery for the DRMTLGY 4th of July sale and of course my Peptide Night Cream … I love the Lactic Acid lotion too! Bonus news!!!! Thanks Penn 🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍

[@PENNSMITHSKINCARE]

Yay!!! So good!! I’m excited for you. The soothe and recovery last FOREVER too. I have used it as a hand lotion and on my arms in a pinch bc it’s such a huge tube that I’m not as worried about going through it 😁

[@michelleadames5012]

You are just so absolutely beautiful!

[@liviusss]

Can anyone recommend some good PHA products for very sensitive skin? And do PHAs also work to promote collagen like AHAs? TIA!

[@salsarmemimi7292]

Great video, your skin looks great. What could I sub for the OneSkin Face? It is a little out of my price range. Thanks. Blessings to you from Texas.

What routine is best for working women who need to be at the office every day and have little time for skin care

[@PENNSMITHSKINCARE]

I think the best solutions are multitaskers- a simple AM routine with 2-3 products is doable. That would be an essence or serum, a multitasking product (this would be an antioxidant/moisturizer etc)then sunscreen. Often those type products cost more but they “replace” several other things. A couple examples (only one would be in the routine) UBeauty resurfacing compound Dear Lucy marine antioxidant serum Then I’d choose a sunscreen that also serves as a primer or a tint (so it’s the spf+makeup/complexion) Like: Cooorscience flex or Alastin hydratint 3 products= covers lots of bases. 💙

[@AlwaysMakeup]

What is other creams that have phytosphgosine in it?

[@4TheAsianDream]

i want to recommend Multi Ceramide Cream by Korean brand called TOCOBO as it has ceramides, cholesterol, phytosphingosine but so as beta-glucan, squalane, panthenol, etc! to be honest there are many good products with such ingredients

[@PENNSMITHSKINCARE]

Yes! There are many great products with those ingredients (that’s why I’m certain most people can find a lipid replenishing product in their own cupboard 😊😊) I’ll definitely check that one out!! 💙💙

[@andreapulver2127]

Gosh, I wouldn't rinse off that ingredient packed gel from ZIIP... P.S. I transfer all my liquids into spray bottles, eliminating the cotton rounds and allowing the layering of essences.

[@PENNSMITHSKINCARE]

I have to rinse it off or else I’m goopy 😊😊
