Should avoid:
1. Parabens (isopropyl-, butyl-, isobutyl-)
2. Ethanolamine (DEA, TEA, MEA)
3. Phthalayes (DBP, DEHP, DEP)
4. Polyethylene Glycol (PEG compounds)
5. Formaldehyde Releasers (Quaternium, diazolidinyl urea, DMD hydantoin)

For me to easy take note! Thanks for the tips Doctor Anthony!

With a young teen daughter who just survived stage 3 lymphoma, I didn’t even know to think about beauty products and her health! Thank you so much for educating me💛

[AMYxxLYNNxxROCKS]

I thought this was going to be a huge commercial for his brand but nope, he's always so helpful and fun :D

[renphelpsz]

I love this Doctor. He is a bad ass with a a high I.Q. and is not afraid to tell it like it is, No B.S. 💖

[jamiem]

I love that he promotes other brands too, not just his own.

[rashmi]

That means we should trust European brands more.

I don’t wear any makeup and my skin looks so much better. My skin is smoother without any little bumps and no more weird discolorations. It does take a while for your skin to adjust to not having any make up at all including foundation or blush or anything but once all the toxins are out of your skin your skin will breathe and looks so much younger. I have not been wearing make up since 1986 and I’m now 60 years old and people think I’m at least 15 years younger. However I do take the time to use good skin care products. I don’t overdo it but what I use helps keep my skin moisturizedAnd I stay out of the sun whenever I can because I overdid it for many years.

Thanks for sharing your medical wisdom! It's beyond refreshing to have a doctor share such vital information to the public in a time when the dollar bill has become the driving force for many skin professionals, including doctors. I took notes while watching this extremely important video and of course subscribed! You're a great instructor and I'm going to watch each and every one of your videos!

[TheSpicydiva]

Wow! This is one way in which the natural hair community is light years ahead of mainstream beauty. Thanks to all the naturalistas, I've been free from most of these chemicals for several years without even fully knowing about all the harmful impacts.

[VanshikaSaxena]

You saved my life doc. I'm 21 and prepared for the right skincare line. ♥️😍

[sarag]

I'm so glad to hear that about The Ordinary. Their price point is one that I can afford. And for the record, you are the only celebrity I would ever buy skincare from. Nowadays everyone and their mother thinks their skin care expert and it's terrifying

[Luxyglamlife]

I’ve been binge watching Mr. Youn since I underwent my breast reduction surgery a few days ago and I just can’t get enough of his insights and very detailed information.

[mrsbutterkup]

Thanks for typing all the info out and sharing it with those of us who aren’t familiar with much of the harmful ingredients in skincare products. It really helps to screenshot it to compare it to the ingredients in our existing skincare products.

[mylenemalyon]

This is an eye-opening at the same time horrendous. Not sure what to put on my face anymore. Scary

[embestrid]

please make more videos like these!! i can listen to this all day. not just in derm-skin care-plastic surgery-et cetera, but general medical educational videos like first aid, anatomy so forth. or just putting things in simple easy to know terms so we understand what doctors like you are stating when you talk to us :)

[lolitanolita]

Phenoxyethanol also. All these beauty companies claim to make products without parabens, but they replaced paraben with phenoxyethanol, which is just as bad.

[heatherchando]

This man got a PowerPoint and everything. Love it!!
