I don't know if you'll see this Dr. Shereene, but I just want to let you know I appreciate how much you teach all of us about the health of our skin. You have a real impact on the lives of so many people. Our face is so important because it represents us in all social interactions, and you're making it easier for everyone to live their best lives with healthy beautiful looking skin. You are a blessing in this world, thank you for being you.

1) not focusing your skincare routine on your skin's biggest issue
2) not listening to your skin
3) not adapting your skincare routine to your climate
4) using hyaluronic acid in too many steps of your skincare routine
5) over-exfolation
6) not changing your pillowcases regularly
7) getting laser treatments and not having a daily skincare routine
8) not wearing sunscreen everyday

Growing up in the '70s with acne galore, I was told, even back then, to frequently change my pillowcase for hygienic purposes -- glad to see so many decades later, that still holds true!

I was that person who thought more is better. First month of tretinoin with a lot of inflammation and my skin neck broken. Then I found your channel. I changed my routine, buffered my tretinoin, diluted my niacinamide, diminished Hyaluronic A creams, started to exfoliate with glycolic once a week, chose better ingredientes for my skin. Game changer, my skin is glowing.

I think a video on eye care would be awesome! Eg. What can and can't be placed on your eyelids + directly under your eyes, proper mascara removal, eyelash care, if regular moisturisers can be applied beyond the orbital bone, and also considerations for people with milia or are milia-prone. I feel like everything triggers my milia yet my eyelids and under eyes are dry and eczema prone 😅

I am 17 years old and I reapply sunscreen through out the day even if I am in the school all day including the winter at -20 degree Celsius. My classmates call me sunscreen girl and some laugh of me.

Dear doctor Shereene, I am getting obsessed with your videos and feel like I'm being educated in this area, skin care, for the first time in my life, and I am 47...thank you❤

[sandranorden]

You are the first dr that I’ve seen who speaks of skincare and climate. I live in Southern New England and this hot summer I could not wear a moisturizer during the day only sunscreen as my skin is slightly oily. So thank you, now I don’t feel like I was breaking a skincare routine rule.

[lisettecampbell]

I love how practical and straight to the point your delivery is. The comparison of changing underwear and pillowcase was so funny. Thank you for your humor, offering so much value and your commitment in all you do. Blessings!

[lorrenab-beat]

I am 43. I found your channel doing a research on jowls. You explained why I don't try beauty products 1. i don't know what I'm trying to achieve and 2. I don't have money to waste products. So thank you for your time and videos

Definitely right about switching up your skincare routine when the seasons change or based on your overall climate. Im 56 with mature, dry skin living in the state with the longest winters (Alaska). Because it can get so cold, the air is very dry and it used to kill my skin until I started on a dedicated skincare routine last November. I listened to my skin just as you said. This year while we have not quite transitioned to full-blown winter we are right on the cusp so my routine reflects that. Layering hydrating, nourishing products alongside various actives and use of glycolic acid (thanks to you on that one) AS WELL as following your advice about treating your décolletage as part of the same cosmetic unit as your face has been a game changer for me.

I love that you are so honest and do not sugar coat anything Thanks so much for all the good info

[helengroza]

Thank you for making it short and clear! 🙏🏻

[itsmejanny]

I would love to have you address how to care for the scalp. Your videos have helped me to curate a better skin care routine that has almost eliminated the brown sun damage spots on my face. Thank you!

[yuliyamoroz]

Love your videos! So encouraging and informative . Would love to see a video about acne and anti aging skincare routine during pregnancy.

[pdxczmate]

New subscriber here and I watch a lot of YouTube videos from different dermatologists and you’re the first one that has mentioned about changing your pillowcases often, I’ve asked this question to so many and have never gotten a response, especially when some don’t cleanse their face of a morning, I’m really enjoying your channel Dr, Thank you for sharing your knowledge here on YouTube. Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺🦘🐨❤️❤️
