I purchased the Prequel vitamin C and have been using it for two weeks. So far, I prefer this product over Timeless Vitamin C. I feel it is less irritating on my very dry mature skin.

Thanks for this video and the reminder to keep it simple. I’m 47 and jumped into skin care last year with both feet and quickly became overwhelmed with all the potential active ingredients, and how to build a routine that didn’t have a million steps. Thanks again for all you share with us!

Ok for anyone who hasn't tried the Prequel Lucent C product you may want to seriously consider getting it, it's a fantastic product, the formulation is perfection. Also I didn't see the Gleanser mentioned in this video, this is another Prequel product that is amazing and the formula, I've never tried anything like it, Honestly I don't want to rinse it off, I love it that much. So luxurious, and my skin is so so soft after using it, wow! Thanks for all you do, and all your FREE advice:)

A good tip from Dr. Sam Bunting is to wash your face with two fingers (two on the right & two on the left). I've found that I'm more gentle and thorough when I do that.

Since so many don't like the term anti-aging, I heard of this brilliant term called pro-aging but with the same thing in mind. Just realizing that aging is a privilege like you said. Love the video!

For me personally I find taking rings and jewelry off(besides earrings) your rings can have a lot of bacteria on them and they can be abrasive on your skin surface.

Dr. Ellis I want to extend a BIG THANK YOU for the thoughtfully designed Prequel line. I have struggled with hormone changes recently and finding my regular routine products burn my skin all of a sudden and feeling at a loss. I am so happy I bought the products and I cannot tell you how much the barrier cream has healed my neck eczema and perimenopausal dry skin. The flare ups and burning are gone. The urea lotion and hypochlorous spray have also done wonders to clear my hormonal breakouts. And THANK YOU for the affordable Lucent-C and sunscreen! Love the brand focus on skin health and barrier repair with products that truly work and are super affordable. Really thankful! Keep up the good work!

Strap in this is a long on.

I have sensitive dry skin. I am 30, female, olive tone skin, never struggled with acne in all my teen years.

In the last 6 months(winter in dry environment) I started washing my face in the evening with cetephil gentle cleanser (for normal to dry) then applying cockind ceramide serum, and last gentle lotion(dry to normal). I do dry with a new clean towel. That went well.

Here's where the problem started...first of all, always washed my hands. I started wearing sunscreen regularly everyday.
Most chemical gave a rash... I have olive completion, so tinted mineral is best, I guess.

Eucerin sensitive mineral face, looked nice but made the skin above my top lip have a dry flaky rash. I think it was the straight Zinc 24%. I treated with Hydrocortisone.

I have really like Cetaphil Redness Relieving Daily Facial Moisterizer. It blends into my olive skin well. Feels nice and easy to reapply.

In the evening I remove with gentle Micellar Cleansing Water and gentle clenser followed with ceremide serum and lotion.

Since trying to wear spf lotion everyday I am breaking out with acne!
I have several white heads and a few cystic, and even a stye....
I have had dry skin all my life how could I possibly over mostrize!?!

Help me wear sunscreen! 😩

Dr Ellis- I’m a home health care provider and I’m in sun a lot in and out of the car. What do you recommend for sunscreen re-application over makeup ? I have not found a good solution yet

[Rosemchambers]

Don’t forget to add sunscreen to your ears. I wear my hair up a lot and they definitely get sun exposure. Thanks for another great video!!

[fernr]

I really needed this video!! Thank you! I am 38 and just getting started - there is lots of information out there!

[exdamariis]

I’ve never started an official skin care routine because of how overwhelming all the information out there is. Thank you for this simplicity🪽

[diopfifi]

You're skin and hair looks gorgeous 😍

[deborah]

Hi dr sam ellis really enjoyed this vlogs are wonderful 😅 xx

[MelissaFreeman]

Dr Ellis, can you still get a tan with sunscreen on? Thank you

[Melissa-cyse]

Thanks to you I now use vitamin c and retinoid along with my sunscreen and my skin is looking great! ✨ Appreciate all of the tips as always! Waiting patiently for Prequel to come out with a retinoid! 🤞🏻

[lindalovessparkles]

as always love your content! can’t wait for the next prequel launch

[vo]

How quickly can we introduce new steps into our routine? Would it be something like two weeks between each product? I am interested in now using both a vit C and ret as I get older, thank you for the video!

[BlancaC]

Oh im so glad you made this video! I always thought you couldn't use a retinoid and vitamin c together!

[ashleyhernandez]

Thank you for the video. I do have a question about which step to use mandelic acid. Should it be before or after using Lucent-C?
