Skincare You DON'T Need - Skin Doctors

"You maybe someone who runs for fun... but that's not me!!" Never have I felt more in line with what someone said!!

Finally some honest video. So tired of “influencers” trying to sell us craps we don’t need just because they get paid $$$ to BS us. Thanks for doing this!

You might not NEED Jade rollers, but if you’ve ever used a cool one after you’ve cried it does feel really good when you’re puffy.

Earlier my facial skin looked dry and dull all the time, even upon waking. But following I did some research and made some changes, my face began glowing in just a few weeks. Here is what I did: I ate a balanced diet that included foods like lentils, roti, green vegetables, and brown rice. This helped nourish my body from the inside. I used a face wash with the right pH level and had black rice water. I opted for the Litlextraa riceberrry face wash, and it worked nice for my skin. I made it a habit to drink at least 2 liters of water daily. I engaged in physical activity on a daily basis, which made me sweating and removed impurities from my body.

What I use: 1. Facial Cleanser 2. Moisturizer 3. Sunscreen

I admire that professionals are steering consumers into developing an understanding of ingredients + their benefits. As the beauty industry inundates us with limitless makeup options, it’s evident those creative principles can’t translate to how we approach skincare.. especially with actives! The price of some of these tools seriously can buy you a over years worth of sunscreen.

The thing with the jade rollers is that they are taken out of context by the occidental beauty industry. They are inspired in gua sha which is a massage technique to relax the face, muscles and to do linfatic drainage as you just said. It was originally done with a jade flat shaped object with some specific forms. I've been doing gua sha on my face and body for ten years and it works wonders for tension and muscles pains. But yeah, it's not going to help with acne or rosacea, that is definetely made up by the beauty industry.

I bought a Jade roller for my boyfriend because he absolutely hates the feeling of any leftover moisturizer on his hands and now he does his skincare routine everyday :)

"clarisonic going out of business FORTUNATELY" LOLOL BRUH he said that with no hesitation

Okayyy, didn't know THIS CHANNEL EXISTED. obsessed

no but having jade rollers and stuff like that actually make u want to do ur skincare routine and can make the process feel so much luxurious and better. its just feels so fancy and lushhhhhh

I really appreciate that you two talked about the nuances of toner. It's nice to feel validated that not all toners are astringent and skin-stripping. I use Cerave's Hydrating toner with HA, ceramides, and niacinamide. It's a perfect base for when my skin is feeling a little dryer than usual. It's more like a hydrating 'serum' and I get the added bonus of those actives. Thanks for the video, Dr. Shah and Dr. Maxfield!

I’d like to see a video on addressing skincare for specific decades. Skincare for people in their 20’s, 30’s, etc. and be sure to included 50’s!!

Ppl that have amazing skin without doing anything are literally blessed, because they’re just born with great genetics. I have a friend that doesn’t eat healthy at all and eats Maccas weekly and she still has the most beautiful glowing flawless skin.

Everyone said chemical exfoliating is better than physical exfoliating. But, I always get pimples and my skin get so sensitive from using chemicals exfoliating. In the other hand, physical exfoliating is my favorite. It’s a big help for my skin. It doesn’t cause breakout and doesn’t make my skin sensitive. Well, every skin is different so choose what is best for you.

Funny story - I’m 34 years old and 4 days ago ran out of my witch Hazel toner. Went 2 days without it and my skin cleared up almost instantly. I’d been fighting dry peeling skin and clogged pores my whole life and only a couple days after cutting out toner did my skin start to look better. And then today randomly I see this video. Oh the irony

I'm almost 38 years old and have struggled with my skin since I was a teenager. It's been 3 weeks of following your advice: added retinoids and sunscreen, ditched the scrubs and I'm noticing a difference already. Purging a bit but I'm so thankful to have an educated plan now! Thank you!

I would love to hear you guys go into the topics below! - Puffy eyes, discoloration under the eyes, and the differences. - Kid-friendly skincare, especially for preteens experiencing breakouts - What to eat to help your skin from the inside - Natural ingredients we can use to create masks or any other skincare products - Male skincare, primarily back acne and blackheads.

Love your honesty! There’s too many beauty fads out there that are ineffective. As someone who formerly worked in the industry, I’ve seen sooooo many ripoffs and misinformation.
